Buffalo 9 trial: inside and out
by Sue Bachmann

by Sarah Delaurentis

News Editor

Had you been at Niagara Square Tuesday as a
curious bystander (ah, is that why all those
curious-looking gentlemen in blue were there?),
you would have witnessed two strikingly
dissimilar demonstrations
demonstrations that
were as opposite in purpose as they were in

Proceedings in the trial of six members of the Buffalo

six-man, six-woman jury. The result of two days questioning
by both Federal Judge John D. Henderson and by attorneys

for the defense and the government, the jurors were sworn in
late Wednesday afternoon after 11 prospective jurors had
either voluntarily disqualified themselves, or had been
dismissed by one of the attorney.s
Shortly after seating the first 12 prospective jurors,
Judge Henderson cautioned the entire court that the trial at
hand is “not political” and that they should take into
consideration only the facts presented throughout the
duration of the trial, without regard to the political opinions
expressed either by the defendants or the witnesses.
As Judge Henderson went on to discuss his expectations
for a “fair and impartial” trial, the shouts of approximately
700 demonstrators outside the Federal Courthouse almost
drowned out his words.
Chanting heard
“Free the Nine, the trial’s a crime” could be heard very
clearly from within the sixth-floor courtroom chambers. At
that point, Judge Henderson called a short recess, so that he
could take care of certain “matters.”
The first indication of the sentiment of some of the
defendants came when they were asked to stand individually
to be introduced to the court. Hearing his name called,
Raymond Malak was first to stand and raise his fist in the
symbolic representation of support for “the Revolution.”
He was immediately and sternly cautioned by Judge
Henderson that there was no need for any gesturing.
However, William Yates, when introduced, repeated the
gesture as did William Berry. The other defendants, Karl
Kronberg, Gerry Gross and Richard Rose made no such
gestures.

Bit of noise
As sounds of student demonstrators continued to
emanate from outside the building, Judge Henderson
commented that no one should be influenced by these
conditions, explaining that “young people full of spirit
might make a bit of noise.”
The only other show of sentiment on the part of two of
the defendants occurred late Tuesday afternoon when Mr.
Malak and Mr. Yates refused to rise when Judge Henderson
was leaving the bench for a recess

While nearly 700 students were encircling the
McKinley Monument on foot to protest the
reopening of the Buffalo Nine trial, a caravan of
cars, honking their mechanical horns, drove by to
publicize the New York State Lottery. (Is
capitalism the name of the game?)
Carrying several identically suited
businessmen with girls attired in yellow perched
atop each car, the motorcade passed the marchers,
those
as some students shouted:
women” and “Women, not playthings.”
Government repression
Although the Buffalo Nine arrests specifically
involved anti-draft and anti-war stands, the
demonstrators are illustrating by these chants, as
well as their posters, that their opposition
encompasses any and all forms of “government
repression.” “Free the nine, the trial’s the crime”
were the words recited most often during the first
trial, but they have now been joined by the more
radical chants; “Ho, Ho. Ho Chi Minh, NLF is
gonna win” and “Power to the People.”
Starting out from Days Park, the marchers
arrived in downtown Buffalo just as the trial’s
jury selection was beginning in the Federal
courthouse. Expressing their intent to have the
chants echo into the sixth floor courtroom, the
demonstrators joined arms and marched five
abreast up and down Pearl St., flunking the
sidewalks on both sides of the street.

Moving on down Main St. and around the
block, students passed the stone-white M &amp; T
Bank Building and shouted: “Big firms get rich.
Gl’s die.” A number of on-lookers peered at the
marchers while policemen and federal officers
scattered themselves amid the crowd, but all
remained peaceful and no arrests were made.

fair, but not followed by those
credit companies dealing with the
poor in installment buying.
When MFY would threaten a

lawsuit, the company would agree
it didn’t follow the law and
discontinued whatever action
MFY complained about.
However, because such legal
services are not widespread, the
company can acquiesce in one
case and continue unchecked in
99 others. The same is true in
cases involving welfare recipients,
according to Mr. Kolhwak.
It is “economically unfeasible”
for the credit company and
welfare department to go to court

perhaps the poor people can
“populate the process” and force
these companies and agencies into

dispute between General Motors

and the federal government, Mr.
Rothwax explained that with the
resources they command, the trial
could go on for a number of
years. To prevent this, a consent
decree is entered into.
Thus, “the ability to endure,
delay, persist, and harass” become
the direct determinants of the
outcome. What is right and legal
becomes irrelevent in a particular
lawsuit.
Mr. Rothwax also explained
that the poor come into contact
with many administrative
agencies: “the bastions of
bureaucracy.” This may make
social change through the law very
difficult. Mr. Rothwax said that
those working in this area show,
with every day, “a growing
disrespect for the law.”

and

written on ROTC programs across
the country and teaches a course
in military science at the
University. Dr. Lucas firmly
believes that “ROTC should be on

Dr. Lucas said that the most
“liberal” army officers come from
ROTC programs because they
have been exposed to the
university atmosphere. If ROTC is
ended at the State University of
Buffalo and other liberal
campuses, the armed forces will
be forced to expand military
academics, officer training schools
and existing ROTC programs at
more conservative universities.
According to Dr. Lucas, this
action would produce more
conservative officers. “What
people are doing when they kick
ROTC off campus is creating a
more conservative
military
establishment.”
Dr. Lucas discounted the
agreement that students taking
ROTC become more militarized

The College is presently trying
to put these concepts into effect.
With their temporary

the College have been divided into

Both faculty and students

voted Tuesday to send their Model
City Plan on to Washington. It will be subject to review by the
Department of Urban Development which will decide upon which, if
any, part it will fund.
The Council did not approve the program until after a long debate
attended by approximately 100 supporters of the resolution.
Councilman Raymond Lewandowski claimed the report was full
of “anti-establishment” attitudes, and although it contained a few
good points he could not support it because of the “ant -government”

Mr. Lewandowski also made note of an ad printed in The
Spectrum by a Phillip J. Cook. The ad condemned the Community
Action Organization. Pointing out Cook’s address, the councilman said
that it may be familiar to many present as it is the “home of most of
the bad press in Buffalo.” The same Phillip Cook was involved in the
writing of the report.
Mr. Lewandowski also attempted to tie the report in with the
Buffalo Nine, although never referring to them by name but rather as
“those youths that confronted Federal Agents at the church last year.”
Joining the Democrat Lewandowski was Republican-Conservative
Mayoral hopeful Alfreda Slominski. Mrs, Slominski declared that she
“wants no part” of the report which is “an indictment of our fine
police department,”
The resolution was approved by a vote of II to 4 with
Councilmen William F, Lymn and Gerald J. Whalen joining Slominski
and Lewenski in the negative.
tublican Councilmen William A. Bm 'crs called the resolution a
:tory for “people power.”

After the deOmonstration, students were
urged to leave in groups, and only a 17-year old
boy, described as a “high school organizer for the
movement,” was arrested as he hitched down
Main St.
Throughout the Niagara Square area, signs
explaining the federal and state laws concerning
picketing, parading and contempt of court were
posted about.
Stressing the importance of the
demonstrators’ support, at Wednesday night’s
SDS meeting, Ray Malak, one of the defendants
said: “1 feel that we’re all in this together, and I
have to feel that there’s lots of people out there
backing me.”
He added that “since every liberal in town will
be trying to get into that courtroom, we’d rather
have radicals get there first.”
Referring to Ray’s verbal confrontation with
Federal Judge John O. Henderson in court
Tuesday, Arnie Stanton, another leader of SDS,
said: “I don’t mean to romanticize it, but Ray

During the meeting students discussed their
goals for “radical changes” on the campus. Most
of the participants seemed to prefer going ahead
with actions, instead of submitting demands as
they did last year. Speaking against demands and
“static disasters” like building take-overs, Bob
Cohen, graduate student of Philosophy,
maintained; “We no longer bog our masters to do

The removal of ROTC from campus, the
destruction of Project THEMIS and the
installation of an open admissions policy were
stated as the more concrete aims of SDS.
One of the defendants. Bill Yates, told the
members: “You play a direct political role in that

lady who slips him.

Aspy Ratso
Dustin Hoffman, in the
characterization of Ratso
Rizzo, is now to be
considered one of the most
flexible actors in American
cinema. His comic-tragic role
follows in the tradition of
Chaplin. The cynical,
asp-tongued surface of Ratso
only covers the sensitive
neuroses troubling him.
Out of sheer necessity, the
two co-habit. They are both

aware of their social shyness.
Both feel uncomfortable, but
a reliance grows between
them. Joe relies on Ratso’s
petty cleverness. Ratso, who
is dying, relies on Joe’s
physical strength.

There is a sense of ugliness
about the movie. It is a social
comment about the rushing
nervousness of life and the
unsettling transience of
existence.
American cinema needs to
continue its movement
toward realism. The
emotional loneliness and
detachment of the 1960’shas
been covered intrepidly by
the film media.
The visual and verbal
strength of Midnight Cowboy
is that it not only documents
many truths about America,
but also empathizes with the
troubled members of society.

This was the ‘sensitivity’
group. Apparently, the
purpose of the group was to
establish and solidify
interpersonal communications and relationships.
Interestingly enough, a
much-heard word was
‘hang-up’. Somehow, people

The next day, Saturday,
held more of the same for
me. Our group met again, the
only change in spirit being
that all of us now laughed at
the interminable periods of

Also, 1 experienced a
certain feeling of hostility on
my part towards the group
leaders and continually
wondered why they did
nothing to alleviate the
monotony. Some people
occasionally decided to
unburden themselves of their
problems.

This went on for the space

Keep Polity
Students will decide today whether the roughly year-old Polity
system of self-government remains or is abolished. Acting on its own
initiative. the II-man Coordinating Council voted last Thursday to
abolish the Polity. Its action is based on the right given the
Coordinating Council to amend the Constitution of the Student
Association. The action is subject to review by the Polity which is
what will take place today.
-

While we agree that the Polity form of government has been a
largely ineffectual experiment, characterized, more often than not, by
endless refetendums following on Hie heels of do-nothing resolutions,
we cannot condone abolishing it before there is another form of
governance to.take its place.
And we wonder what a government-less student body, acting in
anticipation of the eventual University-wide legislature, will do to its
chances of coming out with a better deal in that proposal. By
abdicating before its realization, will students perhaps also be
abandoning their only leverage in obtaining for themselves decent
representation in a bicameral or unicameral legislature?
We sympathize with Mr. Austin when he says that the officers of
Student Association and the coordinators don’t think they can
function within the framework of Polity. Certainly it is frustrating to
be in a position where power for meaningful action is within easy grasp
but always ungraspable. However, neither the officers or the student
coordinators were elected to fulfill their own personal directives, but
rather to be the representatives of 10,000 undergraduates.
the

A new form of government is what is needed, not absence of
government. To abolish Polity before there is anything to replace it
with is to invite a situation that could be much worse than the one
that already exists. The chance to “do something” may be the
“greatest thing that ever happened” to the officers and coordinators of
the Student Association; but it could be the worst thing that ever
happened to students. Think seriously of the implications of abolishing
Polity, and vote against it this afternoon.

Just youthful exuberance?

I assume that it had nothing whatsoever to do in this column might not vary a great deal for the

“I don’t want you to be influenced by these spirited young people
making a little noise outside,” Judge Henderson told prospective jurors
at Tuesday’s first session of the Buffalo Nine trial. That day between
500 and 700 people demonstrated outside of the courtroom, their
chants drifting up six floors to the Part I chambers with the huge gold
letters spelling out “Justice” above the bench. Wednesday was cold
and rainy. The showing was rather dismal.
It is important to realize that the demonstrations are doing more
than letting off excess energy like Judge Henderson would like one to
believe. They are telling the judge and the jury and members of the
that
community that the six young men on trial are not there alone
their beliefs and their courage are shared by others as well; that jailing
the Nine will not stop the resistance, or the revolution for that matter.
-

Another massive rally and demonstration will be held downtown
this morning. The price of one or two cut classes is small in
comparison to the price that six people are being asked to pay for their
beliefs in court this week. Judge Henderson and the members of the
jury must be shown that the Buffalo Nine and their supporters are
more than spirited youngsters letting off steam between football
games.

�'My thing is clean.

.

/

To the editor.
“It’s my bag!” How many times is that phrase used to
justify the DIRTY grubby beards, DIRTY overgrown hair,
DIRTY rags for clothes, and DIRTIER feet found on
many University students?

Pine Wt&gt;rlcl View
by John Bradley

Yes, it’s your bag; but your bag may not be “my bag,”
and why must I be forced to follow yours?

Mr. Nixon has set a precedent (at last). It may be the most
important decision of his till-now unknown administration. He has
decided to abolish the draft for. November and December; he has
promised
faithfully, of course
to restructure the army on an
essentially voluntary basis by executive order (if Congress will not act).
Most important, he has decided to lower draft vulnerability from the
18-26 year range to 18-19.

Being of reasonably sound mind and body, I wasn’t
locked up with my books last Friday evening. After
finding no satisfaction elsewhere, I headed for the campus,
Norton Hall to be more specific. I can’t see how anyone
could believe that this was a part of a modern university
campus. I’ve known cleaner places on the IND 8th Ave.
subway. Papers were strewn all over the floor and it
seemed as if no one had ever heard of a garbage can. The
most difficult job in the world must be held by the
janitorial staff of the University.

-

-

If we can trust him to pursue these three policies to their logical
conclusion, it will mean the virtual extinction of the Army as we have
known and hated it. No longer will it devour those who do not want to
be eaten, no longer will it invade the university with the innanity of
ROTC, no longer will it bore us over the TV with its stupid
propaganda. It will not do these things because - hopefully, for the
future
it will no longer exist;

If you want to live in dirt and filth, that’s your
all I ask is that you do “your thing” in YOUR
business
OUR place. A college union is meant to be used
by dfr students and visitors. You have your rights, but
other students have theirs also. The natural rights letting
you do “your thing,” also gives me the freedom to do “my
thing” and “my thing” is CLEAN (if you don’t know what
that means, ask Webster’s).
-

—

For the present, cut-back is the popular phrase around Washington
these days, especially since the outbreak of Green Beret Scandalitis.
There is no logical reason for keeping much of it around anyway. The
United States imperialists have never learned how to fight limited war
and it is generally agreed that any other conflict would be global, and
therefore over in less than 30 minutes! If Mr. Nixon exploits his new
decisions, it will mean that the people’s will has triumphed in this area;
that the military-half of the complex has been dealt a substantial blow;
that the President has, for once, listened to the opinion of the
American people, that the reactionaries have lost.
We remember those reactionaries
the fools who tried to arrest
time, who tried to freeze their world into permanency for us, and who
tried to force us to fit that world. Remember how “safe” and
“peaceful” it was in the dull, dead fifties? We all sat around watching
an old general play golf while the country slowly went to hell in a
handbag. It was a pleasant dream. We kept on with the war, kept
ghettoing the blacks, kept the working man poor, and kept going to
church on Sunday. How sweet.
-

Suddenly, there were riots. Suddenly, President Kennedy, Senator
Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr. and Medgar Evers were murdered.
Suddenly, Ronald Reagan was governor. Suddenly, the UN had 136
members instead of 54. Suddenly, China had The Bomb. Suddenly, a
new Nazi Party was born in West Germany.

What have we learned from the last ten years of world and civil
war? We have learned that man must move forward all the time, or he
dies of stagnation. We have learned that our greatest danger is
boredom, and our greatest threat: those people who believe that
boredom and peace are one and the same thing. We have learned that
there are limits to American economic and military imperialism; that
some nations can’t be bought and sold to suit our capitalist whims;
that soldiers are not gods, that we cannot hide our heads in the sand
Never say that Americans are the smartest people going. It has
taken a long time, a great deal of wasted cash, and much psychological
pain before we could really begin to appreciate that people’s wars
cannot be stopped; that interference in the affairs of other
governments breeds only hatred and contempt for us, that nobody
likes Big Brother if Big Brother tries to run the whole show. Countless
other countries have sent their nationals to the States for college
training
only to have them return after that education bewildered by
our egotism, amazed at our chauvanism, astonished at our
self-aggrandizement, shocked by our racism, and angered by our
we-can-buy-and-sell anybody attitude.
—

This is what happens when reactionaries are in control. We have
war to keep the world in line, and whips to keep the people in line.
That is the attitude of the fat, stodgy mind that prefers to solve
problems by sweeping them under the rug. In fairness to the President,
he seems to be meeting the problem of the draft Army head on. Let us
hope he is enough of an executive to enforce his orders in this ara. For
his own safety, this had better not be just another sop thrown to the
revolution. Senator Fulbright believes that Mr. Nixon is lying. For his
own sake, he had better not be.

If you think that it’s your duty to society to reject all
ideals, morals, and social norms, why do you choose
to do so while taking advantage of all the good things that
those same principles have produced? What has given this
country a greatness, which has never before been witnessed
upon the face of this earth, are the same principles which
have provided our University, and has given you everything
which you have grown up thinking that you possess as a
“natural” right. The natural rights which you possess were
not always thus. Those natural rights are interwoven into
the structure of society. The same structure which you
of its

Q)

reject.

When you destroy the foundation of a structure, the
upper extremities will not exist either. If you don’t like
what now exists, renovate and repair, or get out and start
by yourselves elsewhere, but don’t destroy. When you
destroy the whole of what exists because it may be rotten

the good which existed will be
in places, remember
indistinguishable from the rest of the rubble and ruins
when the destruction is over.

It is appalling that when you at the State University of
Buffalo, who have the chance to eventually arrive at a
position in society which would enable you to carry into
effect all the truly great and idealistic things which you try
to stand for, have this opportunity looking you straight in
the eye, you reject it. You people who are from the
“have” class take opportunities and discard them because
you apparently want more for those who are, in truth,
cheated by this society, failing to see that the only reason
by which you are in the position to do this is found in the
basic nature of things which created the situation of
“haves” and “have nots.” The “have nots" only wish to
have the very same opportunities which you squander
daily.

The “have nots” want to get away from the dirt and
filth and finally taste some of the sweetness of the system
which to date has only left them the sour drippings.

Now, you at the State University of Buffalo have
eliminated another area of sweetness for those of your
contemporaries from places like Harlem,
Bedford-Stuyvesant, and the other ghettos in this state.
Are you, by making Norton Hall as dirty as a ghetto,
trying to bridge the racial gap by making these people feel
at home? If so, your efforts are grossly misguided. No one
likes to live in dirt. In the ghetto, the choice may not exist ,
in the University, the choice does exist. It’s your choice.
If you have a right to be at the State University of
Buffalo or any other university or on the same earth with
other people, or animals, you have a responsibility to
respect other’s rights, as they do yours. This responsibility
we could call common courtesy.
Now you have a few more words to look up in

Approaching Mr. Malak, Judge Henderson referred to the

court clerk’s twice-made announcement for everyone to rise

by Alfred Dragone

and said: “That includes you.”
Receiving a negative reaction from Mr. Malak, Judge
Henderson said: “It’s an order of the court not out of
respect to a man named Henderson, but out of respect of the

“I spit on that system and on you,” replied Mr. Malak.
Mr. Yates indicated agreement. Mr. Malak then lashed out
against Judge Henderson for his lack of respect for a
“revolutionary” and as retaliation cited his own disrespect"
for the judge, whom he termed a “drunken fool.”
Judge Henderson later said that there is legal precedent
for “gagging” certain defendents if necessary. He also denied
a motion for severance at the trial of the defendent Mr. Ross
from that of the other defendents.
Selection of the 12 jurors, and three alternates,, involved
detailed questioning as to the family, occupations and
possible political prejudices of the jury candidates.

The preliminary questions dealt mainly with facts such
as whether any of the jurors had any acquaintance with the
attorneys, the defendants, the officers on whom assault was
allegedly made at the Unitarian Universalist Church in
August, 1968, by the defendants, or any agents of law
enforcement.

The military history of each juror and his family was also
discussed so as to reveal any possible grounds for prejudice
against certain testimony which may come forth during the
trial.
Specific questions relating to the war in Vietnam,
antbmilitarism and discordance with the United State
government were asked by the defense attorneys, also on the
presumption that testimony referring to those subjects may
bring out certain prejudices in the jurors.

It isn’t easy

connection, I even once attended grammar school,
which was a thoroughly boring experience for one of
my intellect and talent (I am definitely not in a
modest mood at the moment).
In grammar school, 1 particularly remember
large cardboard drawings pasted on blackboards
depicting a husky, imposing figure in a sparkling
uniform smiling benignly down at my innocent little
face. Under this portrait was invariably written the
legend, “The Policeman is Your Friend.”
Syrupy trust
All of that, of course, transpired in the early
50’s when a policeman’s duties, as related to men,
consisted primarily of helping me cross the street or
giving my father i' speeding ticket. Today,
unfortunately, the warm comeradery and syrupy
mutual trust between us alledged by those posters
has deteriorated somewhat.
Jack Webb, that sterling wit and
conversationalist, has somehow lifted that charming
portrait of Officer Bill from my second grade
classroom and transferred it to the television screen
in the form of something called Adam 12.
To distinguish the show from his own Dragnet
Webb has fashioned a simple, heart-rending tale of
two ordinary cops in a patrol car, a sort of straight
Car 54, Where Are You?
.

„

Virility, morality
By the offices of Mr. Webb and his crew we are
treated to yet another “behind-the-scenes” look at
the police in action. His protagonists
and that’s a
compliment if you ever read a script of theirs
are
one rookie and one vet (for balance), and are played
by Kent McCord and Martin Milner. These two, with
their close cropped hair, sideburnless, shining,
Caucasian, cherubic but authoritative faces
practically exude virility, morality and authority
-

-

Once at the tokenly integrated and gleaming
school, the inevitable question is posed by, of
course, a black girl. She asks something to the effect
of whether they got tired of being called fascist pigs
and other assorted half-truths. The script writer,
evincing all of the subtlety of a wolf hound in heat,
had Milner helplessly shrug it off; the implication
being that it is not easy being a protector of morals
these days.

Essential for dramatic conflict to such simplicity
story lines is the introduction of the malcontent.
While the children are fascinated playing in the
bowels of the patrol car, one boy stands apart from
them playing with a knife. When the car’s tires are
slashed, Milner and the court immediately come to
the obvious conclusion and do everything short of
beating a confession out of the kids.

Enough for conflict, now to rudimentary
psychology. Of course the boy isn’t really bad; he
has a bad home life, the black principal is quick to
volunteer.
father is quite a troublemaker and his
parents fight a lot. How unique!

Little monster
Although everyone knows who hacked the tires,
McCord is determined to give the boy one more
break before he rubber hoses him and/or injects him
with truth serum. This time the little monster steals
a stop watch from Milner’s car.

After he gives it back, he is observed yith a gun
in his belt. With the police and the boy’s irascible,
foul-mouthed (off-stage, of course) father in hot
pursuit, the child is surrounded and captured in a
yard. He surrenders the gun (his father’s) with a
tearful entreaty.
Water glistening from his eyes, the boy ruefully
explains that he took it while his parents were
fighting and in a child-like attempt to foster a little
law and order at home, he wanted to make certain
that irascible old dad didn’t plug good old mom full
of holes, as it were.

-

The scripts are embarrassingly juvenile and
present their patent messages with all the finesse and
dramatic acumen of George Elliot (if nothing else, I
am determined to give you more than a passing
acquaintance with your local
English Literature).

Oxford

Companion to

The season premiere (this is its second season,
it’s a howling success) featured a morally
instructive but torpid concoction where our two
good guys try to bridge the generation gap with
ergo

ten-year-olds.

Asked if he minded giving lectures at grade
schools, Milner
who also has freckles, which is a
nice all-American touch
responded very seriously
“the more I talk to now, the fewer I’ll have to talk
to later.” How’s that for hard-hitting social
comment?
—

—

And magically, like a bolt from the blue (and all
of those other cliches) rotten old dad is converted
from the creature from the black lagoon to Robert
Young.

This simple, heart-warming slice (did 1 say slice?
I mean big sloppy, gooey gob) of Americana is
intended to be a moral lesson for those of us who
have become jaded since our days in grammar school
when the policeman was our friend and marijuana
was a town in Mexico where people went to get a
quickie divorce.
The only lesson that I learned from watching
this is maybe Lawrence Welk isn’t so bad after all.
This is also the last time I will ever stay home on
a Saturday night, even if I have to go out and slash
tires.

Take that, Martin Milner!

Coach Vic Fusia of
Massachusetts is depending upon
the insertion of a crew of
sophomores to add depth to his
squad. “At least twenty seniors
should be playing football foi us
this fall, and will have to provide
the nucleus of experience.” Fusia
said: “If our sophomores fill in
the other gaps adequately, there is
no telling how far we could go."
The Massachusetts’ offense is
led by quarterback Tim Adams,
who accounted for nearly 55% of
the total team's offense a year ago
with his 111 pass completions for
1306 yards and 10 touchdowns.
He will rely on Pat Scavone,'
who led the running attack of a
year ago with a 5.9
yards-per-carry average, and
Richard Cummings, a 230 pound
sophomore with good speed.
The receiving corps is headed
by Nick McGary, who led the
Redmen with 22 receptions for
326 yards. Joining him will be
Steve Parnell, Jim Long, and John
Decembrele.

Ed Perry and sophomore Kirk

the available replacements.

idea to pass on to someone? In cooperation with the Office of Student
Affairs and Services,The Spectrum sponsors Action Line, a weekly
reader service column. Through Action Line, individual students can
gel answers to puzzling questions, find out where, why and how
University decisions are made and get Action when change is needed.
Just dial 831-5000 for individual attention. The Office of Student
Affairs and Servicer will investigate all questions, all complaints, and
answer them individually. Action Line will include questions and
replies of general interest which appear to be pertinent to the student
body. The name of the individual originating the inquiry is kept
confidential under all circumstances.' Make a note of the number:
831-5000 for Action Line.

Q: What are the rules concerning the S/U grading option as they
apply to upperclass students? As a senior who has not yet exercised
this privilege, may I now take all my remaining courses on a S/U basis?
A: The University College 1969-70 catalogue states: “Students
may receive credit for courses taken on the S/U basis to a limit of 25%
of the total number of credit hours taken at this University towards
the baccalaureate degree.”
This statement does imply that a senior who had not yet taken
any courses under the S/U option could conceivably take all his senior
credits in this manner.
The interpretation of the ruling, however, by the chairman of the
Faculty-Senate Committee on Educational Policy and Planning - (and
advised after the catalogue had gone to press)
indicates that this
ruling applies only to students entering this institution as freshmen on
and after September, 1969.
Therefore, all upperclass students now in attendance can take only
one-fourth of their remaining credit hours per semester in this manner.
-

Q: I understand that the Student Activities fee, which is
mandatory for all undergraduate students, was raised for this year.
When was this done and how much additional is being charged?
A: Carol Osterer, treasurer of the Student Association, informed
us that in May, 1969, the Coordinating Council of the Student
Association passed a resolution increasing student activities fees $2 per
semester. In effect, this raised the fee to $44 for the total school year.
This was done in order to augment the budget allocations granted
by Sub-Board 1 of the Faculty-Student Association to the University
Union Activities Board, Norton Hall and Publications Board. It was
felt that the additional funds were essential to finance these student
activities more adequately.
Q: My wallet, in which I carried my l.D. card, was stolen. I was
told that duplicate l.D. cards cannot be made until Oct. 3rd. Why?
A: The equipment which prepares l.D. cards was moved from
Norton Hall back to the basement of Foster Hall on Sept. 19. The
two-week interim period js essential to overhaul, repair and adjust the
equipment to maintain it in proper working condition.
This period also gives the staff of the Instructional
Communication Center a breather to catch up on their own workload.
Issuing l.D. cards is an extra service granted by them, and a service for
which no special or additional allocations are granted.
During this interim period, however, the Office of Student Affairs
and Services will be glad to give you a statement certifying the fact
that you are a matriculated student.

Students sentenced to 2 years

Non-violent draftprotesters
arrested at U. of Oregon
by College Press Service
The student
EUGENE, Ore.
body president of the University
of Oregon and a fellow student
have been sentenced to two years
each in prison for 30 minutes of
nonviolent protest against the
—

draft.

Kip Morgan, the president, and
David Gwyther, a veteran activist,
face incarceration in a Lompoc,
Calif, federal prison as a result of
their conviction in U.S. District
Court last June on three counts of
“disrupting Selective Service

Proceedings.”
Both are currently free on bail
to appeal the conviction and
sentence.
Morgan acted as judge,
Gwyther as prosecuting attorney;
and 12 other students as jurors in
mock trials conducted at Eugene
and Roseburg, Ore. local draft

military recruiting and police on
campus, were brought to trial and
charged with using force to
distrupt the meetings.
There were no injuries in the
incidents and only two witnesses

testified

that

physical

contact between

there

had

been
the
students and the board members,
but the prosecutor, a U.S.
attorney, contended and the jury
apparently agreed that the
students’ entry into the meeting
was in itself an act of force.
Morgan and Gwyther claimed
throughout the trial that they had
engaged in no forceful disruption,
but rather had made peaceful
verbal presentations to dramatize
their opposition to military
conscription.

Judicial priorities
The U.S. judge who sentenced
them alluded to his experience

under fire'as a Red Cross worker
in World War II and said: “The
war in which my generation
fought was no more pleasant than
this one (Vietnam). I fail to see a
great difference. It was a duty you
had to perform.”
Gwyther’s attorney cited a
recent case in which the same
judge sentenced a man found
guilty on 13 counts of federal tax
evasion to 30 days in jail. He
questioned the judicial priorities
involved, since, he said, the tax
evader is motivated by selfish
ends, the draft law violator by
high ideals.
But the judge, directing his
comments at Morgan ancf
Gwyther, said: “I don’t know
about your idealism. There is a
my mind whether you
question
were sincere or whether you were
trying to avoid the draft.”

her an extra $50 which she claims 1 owe her. Where can I get some
help with this problem? I do not have sufficient funds to hire an

attorney.

A: As the details surrounding this inquiry revealed, you need legal
help. The Legal Aid Bureau of Buffalo, a United Fund agency, is
staffed with competent attorneys who will be glad to assist you. Their
office is located in the Walbridge Building and is open from 9:00-4:30
p.m., Monday through Friday.
Q: I worked with migrant children this summer who never saw a
football game. Is it possible to obtain complimentary tickets for these
children?
A: We approached the Student Association who thought this was
such a great idea they made arrangements with our Athletic Ticket
Office to have a number of tickets available to the State University of
Buffalo football games for like situations. Students who would like to
sponsor a similar children’s group should contact the Student
Association Office.
Q: How does one arrange to be graded on a S/U basis?

A: Students wishing to be graded on the S/U system in any course
must inform the instructor by the fourth week of the semester or the
letter grade system will prevail.

MATCH MAKER
is the one dating service

that has been established
and proven successful in
the area lor over three
years, and will continue to
bring compatible people
together (or many years
to come.

Q: Sunday I was delayed and harassed by U.S. Custom officials at
the Peace Bridge. When they put in calls to the Buffalo Police
Department, I called the Student Legal Aid Service number. Nobody
answered the phone. Why?
A: The Student Legal Aid number is an answering service which
provides coverage 24 hours per day. Dennis Arnold, student rights
coordinator for the Student Association, checked with the service and
they could provide no explanation for the lapse. Perhaps you dialed
the wrong number. Jot it down again: 882-2693. During the day,
however, Mr. Arnold can generally be reached at or through the
Student Association Office in Room 205, Norton Hall.

Computer dating is
the single most

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Political repression scrutinized

The varied phases of
political repression, both
explicit and discreet,
underwent intense
examination this weekend as
students convened for the
symposium on “Political
Prisoners and Repression.
Sponsored by the Students
for a Democratic Society and
the Buffalo Nine Defense
Committee, the conference
attracted a number of leading
activists including radical
lawyers,
renowned
proponents of militancy and
noted historians.
Although some of
Sunday’s panel discussions
were not well attended, those
who were in the audience
were encouraged to
participate in the dialogue,
and voice their opinions and
objections.

Courtroom injustice
Probing into the
“Establishment and Political
Repression” Sunday in the
Fillmore Room, several
lawyers revealed their

as for cases involving the
Black Panthers, Abbie
Hoffman and Mark Rudd,
stressed the need for “unity
among all the organizations
in the movement.” Mr.
Lefcourt summed up his
viewpoint by noting the
quote: “When law is tyranny,
revolution is order.”

Need for humor

importance of maintaining a

destruction of Themis or
actual removal of ROTC

that really “aids the
revolution.”
“Capitalism and Political
Repression” was the topic of
another discussion Sunday in
the Fillmore Room.
Describing the “essential
function” of any state as
“repression,” Ted Allen,
nationally renowned
economist, emphasized that
capitalism is particularly
guilty of this, because it
accumulates capital at the
expense of labor.

Increased repression
Mr. Allen said repression
can either be .violence used
against national liberation
struggles, or “bourgeois
democracy,” employed
within one’s,own country.
Stanley Aronowitz,
columnist for The Guardian
warned radical leaders not to
be “nipped and isolated” in
‘‘vain and adventurous”
actions. He observed that the
floundering of the capitalist

system, because of its
inherent 'Contradictions, as
well as the radicalization of
workers and students, will
lead to increased political

repression.
A vociferous opponent of
Project Themis research,
Gabriel Kolko. Faculty of
Social Sciences and
Administration, agreed that
the more effective the
opposition to the
establishment becomes, the
more stringent the repression
will be.

Advising students against
spending all their time and
money in legal confrontations with the government.
Dr. Kolko suggested that the
left might put their scarce
respurces to better use trying
to abolish ROTC or organize
GI’s.
Throughout the three-day
symposium radical films were
shown continuously in the
Conference Theater, while
numerous workshops were
conducted in various rooms
in Norton Hall.

Participants in the symposium on "Political Prisoners and Repression" discuss and
contemplate different views. At speaker's table (upper left) are Mike Aldrich, Joe

overdue.”

News Editor

A step toward the speedier
establishment of a University
Advocate’s office was taken early
this week when Warren Bennis,
Vice President for Academic
Development, issued letters to
University governmental
organizations asking for their
proposals for a University
Advocate by the end of this week.
Dr. Bennis, acting president in
the absence of Peter F. Regan,
contacted each of the six student
governments, the Faculty Senate
and the Civil Service Employees
Association stressing the urgency
for action in the development of
an Advocate’s office.
Summing up his feelings on the
need for action. Dr. Bennis said
that the University “must move
more quickly” and that his office
“strongly endorses” the
establishment of an Advocate’s
office, however its purposes are to
be defined.
,

Provisional appointment
Also included in Dr. Bennis’
letter was the request that he be
allowed to move ahead on a
provisional basis and appoint an
Advocate for the present time.
The original request for action
on the part of the various!
University groups was made in a
letter from Dr. Regan
approximately one week ago
when he askfed that they submit
their separate proposals by Oct.
31.
Ronald Stein, associate
director of the Office of Student
Affairs discussed the possible
definition of a University
Advocate’s position saying that it
would “bring to adjudication all
grievances within the University

which

is “long

Grievances unsolved
He also explained that the
identity of a mediator for
grievances within the University at
the present time is unclear. Many
problems over which no specific
office has adjudication simply
dissolve with time, only to
reappear soon after.
According to Mr. Stein, there is
no other office like the one being
established here at any university
in the country:
Most important to the
effectiveness of a University
Advocate is that its creation go
“hand in hand” with the creatiorv
of a university governance system
and a university-wide judiciary,
added Mr. Stein.
Student Association President
Bill Austin also commented on
this subject earlier this week.
“The University needs it (an
Advocate’s office) immediately,”
hp said.
“It would put justice into the
hands of a neutral office. In
addition, it is a major aspect of
university self-governance.”

Council passed a resolution last
Thursday stating that that

The question still remains:
What to do with FSA lot?
The Faculty Student
Association, which owns a
510-acre tract of land seven miles
from the State University of
Buffalo campus, is still trying to
find a use for its property.
Bought on Oct. 2, 1964 for
more than $765,000, the
unimproved lot has been sitting
idle. In addition, the FSA has
•been paying taxes of $20,000 a
year. The money has been

Ittalie’s ‘The Serpent’
by Christie Jordan
Spectrum Staff Writer

Saul Elkin, innovative new director of the University’s Theatre
Department, has exhibited some exciting new ideas in his direction of
The Serpent, a play by Jean-Claude Van Ittalie.
•

The play was first done by the
Open Theater in New York and
promises to be a beautiful
experience for the actors as well
as the audience.

Humphrey Bogart, the man, is dead; but Humphrey Bogart, the
legend, will live as long as cinema does. The best of Bogey will be
featured in the Conference Theater Thutsday through Saturday.
Treasure of Sierra Madre is a tale of greed. An Academy Award
winner, it is the hard hitting account of the fate three gold-prospecting
derelicts bring upon themselves through their distrust of each other.
The journey upon which they embark is a brilliant study of the
corrosive effects of greed upon human relationships. The 1948 film
was written and directed by John Huston.
Knock On aAny Door was the first film produced by Santana,
Bogart’s own company. The film traces the inevitable disintegration of
a sensitive child who dreams of the stars and stumbles into the gutter.
Humphrey Bogart portrays the role of the defense attorney, himself a
graduate of the big city gutter, capable of understanding and opposing
the sordid influences which developed gangsters. The film was adapted
from the novel by Willard Motley and was released in 1948.

Queeg's dilemma
Caine Mutiny was adapted from Herman Wouk’s Pulitzer
prize-winning novel of an embattled mine sweeper and its nerve-taut
officer and crew during World War II in the Pacific.
It is a drama of men against their captain played to perfection by
Bogart. As Captain Queeg, he is accused of “losing his mind” and his
men face the dilemma of whether or not to follow him when they

believe him wrong.
The story of Captain Queeg’s gradual disillusionment until his
officers consider him mentally unfit to command reaches a crashing
climax during the typhoon when Lt. Steve Maryk takes over.
No less intense is the court martial episode and its unexpected
sequel. Also featured in this Academy Award winning film are Van
Johnson. Jose Ferrer and Fred McMurray.

Bogart mystique
Humphrey Bogart will always be remembered for his virile
portrayal in Casablanca and The Maltese Faleon. Below the hard boiled
exterior existed a sensitive and fallable human.
The role that made him a popular hero was Duke Mantee in The
Petrified Forest. Previous to this film he played juvenile and romantic
roles. The Petrified Forest established Bogart as the tough killer
gangster which he followed up in roles such as Dead Fnd. King of the
Underworld and High Sierra.
His film personality set the stage for the credibility of (he sexy
villian-hero that has developed since in such personalities as Jean Paul
Belmondo and Michael Caine.
If you want to lose yourself in the Bogart mystique, come to the
Humphrey Bogart festival at the Conference Theater this weekend.

result was three volumes of “poems” which in three
years have sold well over a million copies. By way of
comparison, in 55 years Robert Frost’s sales have
been about 500,000.
Indeed, while beseeching his fawning admirers
to “Listen to the Warm,” McKuen’s most Tprominent

But fragmentation is not fair. McKuen is at his
best when his only poetic talent, that of flooding his
tripe with sentimentality, succeeds in smearing the
page with the tears of gushy readers. This talent,
perhaps cultivated when he served as a
“psychological-warfare script writer” in Korea, is
doubtlessly the main reason for his popularity.

Thus, while to many „his gravelly voice might
mark a haunted, lonely man, its cause is quite
simple; money grubbing.

Ditties undeep
His latest cash register smash, “Jean,” proves
that McKuen is a man of action. When he writes a
love song, he gets the “roses are red’s” out of the

His cute imagery is sickening, and, in Lonesome
Cities at least, reflects a superficial travel poster
approach to “the Alitalia afternoons,” and “the
Roman day/ablaze with waking tourists and sleeping
cats/and ruins being ruined by the tick of time.”

Non-clicking cliches
In the midst of such garbage, his occasional
attempts at social commentary and criticism,
however well-intentioned, seem flat and contrived, a
situation not helped by his monotonous sing-song.

Of Vietnam he writes: “And so they take the

Battle of the busts?
Last week saw two drug busts of local students one in
Allenhurst under the direction of the Amherst police; the
other by Buffalo Narcotics Chief Mike Amico. The first
involved State University of Buffalo students at the
University’s Allenhurst apartments; the second hit students
from Buffalo State University College and Niagara
Community College. It is no small possibility that these
won’t be the last.
It is election year in Buffalo and Mike Amico is running
for Erie County Sheriff against the incumbent Tom Ryan.
Though Amico can’t bust Allenhurst and students with
off-campus apartments or homes outside of the city line,
Ryan can. If a “battle of the busts” shapes up before
November, no one should be too surprised.
By now, we all should know that not only do
drug-crazed college students make good copy for The
Buffalo Evening News, they also make good political hay in
a city where elections are, more often than not, run not
around the issues but on the sensationalism of the moment.
A University whose politics and life style are abhorred
by the community in which it resides is a prime target for a
drug bust anytime. When drug use is take casually and the
local Narcotics Chief is running for election, the possibility
becomes an awfully strong probability.
The paranoia of last December when the famed “mod
squad” did in over 20 students and young people is not even
necessary anymore. Mike Amico no longer needs undercover
agents. All he needs is a good nose and a pair of eyes two
attributes, which we are sure even he and his colleagues are
in possession of.
While it is true that if every drug-user or dabbler were
picked up by the cops, the jails could hardly hold them,
50 vans are
advocates of open drug use forget one thing
not going to pull up in front of Norton Hall one day and
individuals are going to be picked
haul everybody away
off one by one.
A thousand kids are not going to be busted one sunny
afternoon out in the fountain courtyard; they’re going to go
when they’re in their homes and
quietly one night
apartments, separated from the protectiveness of large
numbers.
They’re going to go not in a blaze of massive glory that
will screw up the court and the jail systems and render the
whole enforcement of drug laws useless. They’re going to go
and
in long, individual, agonizing battles with the courts
they will prove nothing by the effort. Amico isn’t where he
is because he’s incompetent in what he does. He is a master
of his particular trade.
Though The Big Bust a la Stony Brook may never come
here, little ones undoubtedly will and very soon. Students
■have very little protection against the search warrant and the
sealed indictment. They strip themselves even barer when
they are reckless with their drug use.
It used to be fairly safe to say that no one wanted to be
busted. It still is true, however, that Chief Mike Amico is not
Officer Joe Bolton, and the Buffalo Police are no Yip-In.

Apathy is not any one particular happening but,
perhaps, I became aware of it the day I stood in line
at a health center and watched a tousel-haired boy of
three pick some dandelions and proudly present
them to his mother. She barely glanced at them,
ground them under her feet and shoved him into
line, not even caring enough to look at beauty and
simplicity because a measle shot was more
important. I have seen apathy in many parents who,
filled with superficial values and superiority,

The awareness of this has been with me during
the past five years and I have searched my mind for
the correct word to call this thing I see in our midst
and, then, suddenly the word came it is apathy. It
has become so widespread, so total in our existence
that, tragically, we, as individuals and citizens are
totally oblivious to it. The average person would
deny it, the politician will gloss over it and the
intellectual will discuss it ideologically but 1, myself,
see it everywhere
in all phases of our lives, in little
insignificant passing things, and it both frightens and

Ball State 10, Buffalo 7? What In blazes is Ball
State?
Since I960, I have enthusiastically followed
State University of Buffalo sports, attending all
home games and many away games while in college,
and many games in the Boston, New York City and
Philadelphia area while attending law school in New
York City. Throughout these frustrating seasons, the
spark of hope for a nationally rated football team
remained, while actually UB was steadily building a
solid reputation as the “have nots of the East,” as
mentioned in a recent magazine article.
I would love to take clients and friends to
Buffalo for week-end games, but I will not, because,
frankly, I would be embarrassed to admit that this is
the team that represents my school and from the
looks of game attendance and alumni contributions,
thousands of other alumni must feel the same way.
So, another season will pass by as I quietly

attend the games with a few other quiet, but loyal
State University of Buffalo fans, and meanwhile
other schools will reap the financial benefit ol ih*
Eastern and National television market, post season
games, and huge Saturday afternoon crowds.
Please do something, before we loyalists

Instead of reflecting a real desire to end the fighting in Vietnam,
the recently announced troop cuts are more of a bone to throw at the
college students at home. That is why he decided to delay a month the
announcement of the second “cut.” It is politically more sound to
wait for the college kids to get back to the campuses, then throw the
bone.
There are few doubts that Mr. Nixon will continue to act within
the confines of the lines of political expediency. He knows no other
way, and the record of it goes back long before Checkers.

willingness to see it, not in youthful bitterness but
with objectivity and compassion.

-

In any vanished society the apathy came first,
spread like a contagious disease down through the
rank and file and, finally, the books and words of
those who dare to protest are burned and that is the
first indication of self-annhilation
then, the
intellectuals, then the middle-classes and then, the
working classes. All in the name of apathy which no
-

one even gave a name to.

Politicians call this apathy “diplomacy” and
innocent youths go to their slaughter never asking
why this must be so. Apathy is sometimes used in
the name of Christianity, in which so called
“Christians” deny others their rights because of race,
color, creed and when a President of this country or
a great Negro leader was killed there were those who
rose up and cheered. It is time for the people of this
country to stand back and look at themselves, to
forget the subjective and remember the objective; to
forget the “ego” and the personal motives
the
frantic pursuit of swimming pools and vicarious
entertainments; to search deep within themselves for
the meaning of life, the fundamentals upon which
this country was built. Can the youth of today meet
apathy with vigor, with enthusiasm; replace boredom
with happiness; make the poverty disappear and
replace it with “wealth,” true wealth to help us grow
both as a nation and as individuals? Will they, too,
with age and the comforts of life become apathetic
or will they retain their idealism and be willing to
work all their lives to aid others less fortunate? Or
will this youth, too, become old in time and be just a
page in a history book towards which another future
generation will be apathetic?
-

Following lines of expediency, Mr. Nixon might just end the war,
or quickly finish the “Vietnamization." His trouble will come in
finding an “honorable” solution. With a string of dishonors Gulf of
Tonkin, napalm, -the bombing of Hanoi, supporting a long line of
self-serving “democratic governments”
it is increasingly hard to find
honor in anything we do as a nation, and the sorry record of it will
long be remembered in the minds of our fellow men around the world.
Cause for hope can be found in a change in. or end of the draft.
There have been inklings of this as the backlog of cases of those
refusing to take a step forward grows. The draft cannot and should not
survive with the inequities that are there. Those inequities will be
challenged again and again.

The mill is slowing down, however. My bet is that Mr. Nixon will
choose to tinker with the draft, coming up with a form that every
liberal and his mother has been advocating for years, from Rocky to
George McGovern to President Meyerson. And that, of course, is a
lottery system which gives a red or green light at a natural time in life’s
progress. Tinker, tinker, Mr. Nixon; the nation fumes.

Bill Russell told 1000 St. Bonaventure students Tuesday that the
draft ought to continue.
“In fact, I think it should be put in the Constitution that we
always have a draft,” he said.
“But we should change the standards. For instance, nobody under
40 should be drafted. And nobody who makes less than SIS,000 a
year. And if you run for political office, that automatically makes you
1-A.

“If they did that, say when you get to be
to work to make sure there’s no war going on.”
He has a point.

The road we are following is rocky and treacherous, with many
reverses and few gains. Bob Dylan’s song, “Times They Are
A-Changing“ has remained relevant so long, the real hope for so long
only now, five years later, does it begin to seem more of an opiate than
a hope.

sky is falling. According to the
popular legend, all the animals of
the forest were thrown into a
state of panic one day when they
thought the sky was falling on top
of them. The sky had always been
there above them, silent and blue
and peaceful.
If it started to fall it would not
be long before the forest was
destroyed and the whole world
after that. All of the animals were
sure they would die in the
holocaust.
Fortunately it was not true.
When all the animals saw the sky
was still there, they became happy

When you first look at the

on display at the
Smithsonian was broken off from
one of the largest samples
collected by the astronauts. It
weights a little over a pound.
Formed at high temperature
Exactly how this lunar sample
came to be is a matter of scientific
dispute, though it is generally
believed to be at least three billion
years old.
Speculation as to ’the
origin revolves around two
geologic possibilities: melting in
some ancient age either because of
the exterior shock of a huge
meteorite or by volcanic action
from within the moon itself.
One
is certain. The lunar
sample and others like it were
formed at very high temperatures.

Cool response
Surprisingly, response to the
phenomenon of the lunar sample
has been very cool in the capital
city. Not only was there a
below-average crowd in the Arts
and Industries Building on the
fust day of the exhibit, but two
days later the Weekly Calendar of
Events in the Washington Post did
not even mention it.
An official &gt; estimated the
fust-day crowd at 8000. On a
normal weekday at this time of
the year, 10,000 people pass
through this building, attracted by
the original Wright Brothers’
airplane, the Spirit of St. Louiss,

Yet on Sept. 16, when the
lunar sample exhibit opened, even
these famous hanging carcasses of
aviation history could not attract
the average number of people.

Mrs. Slominski began her speech by attacking the present
administration’s recreation policies. She said that if elected, one of her
first acts would be to establish a Parks and Recreation Board, which
would consist of nine members one from each councilmanic district.
The Republican candidate also reiterated her familiar call for an
elected school board. She did not say whether she wished the members
to be elected at-large or on a district basis.

Mrs. Slominski also lashed out at another of her favorite targets,
the City Commission on Human Relations. She charged that during the
past 12 months, the 35-member commission has failed to achieve a
quorum more than 50% of the time.
She said that if elected, she would reduce the board to 21
members, with one member each from the nine councilmanic districts.
The other 12 members would be appointed from a list recommended
by clergymen, businessmen and labor leaders.
Mrs. Slominski also attempted to squelch persistent rumors that
she intended to appoint University District Councilman William F.
Lyman police commissioner.
“When I am mayor, I will need Bill Lyman’s support on the
Council,” she said. “I urge you all to support Bill Lyman for
re-election as councilman.”

quote Hitler if he wants to. I would rather quote from Abraham
Lincoln.
“You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the
people some of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the
time.”
The quote to which Mrs. Slominski referred appeared in last
Friday’s issue of The Spectrum. It was from a speech made by Hitler in
Hamburg, Germany in 1932 in which he urged the German people to
elect him as a “law and order” candidate.

However, noise is but a false

prepared one for the ordeal of a
football game. The Bulls were
prepared.
They attained their first
victory of the season, a decisive
17-0 win before 8468 fans.
By the conclusion of the first
half, the Bulls led 7-0 as Scott
Herlan scored from the one-yard
line following a recovered fumble.
it was already apparent that
Xavier’s forces were totally unable
to mount a potent offensive
attack. There were no weaknesses

Bulls walked off the field with a
17-0 victory.
The Bulls prevailed because of
three major factors. First was the
all-around superb effort of the
Buffalo defense, which limited the
opposition to ten first downs,
only one of which was achieved
through the air.

strategy to contain the roll-out

his linebacking crew, which
repeatedly halted the Muskateers'
attempts at short sideline passes.

Ball control game
Although Buffalo had put only
seven points on the scoreboard,
they had already succeeded : in
instituting an effective ball
control game, running 37 plays to
Xavier's 23.
This was partly without
starting quarterback Mick Murtha,
who was injured at the end of the
first quarter.
The third quarter brought
continued Buffalo dominance as
the Bulls capitalized on the breaks
the Musketeers afforded them. A
dipping penalty against Xavier on
a Bulls' punt maintained a drive
which culminated in a 27-yard
field goal by Mike Constantino.
This made the score 10 -0.
The only two drives the
previously impotent Musketeers
could muster were terminated by
an Ed Kershaw interception and a
Prentis Henley fumble recovery
deep In Buffalo territory. The
Xavier offense was never again
able to generate a drive of any
sort.

WHAT IF—SLOMINSKI

What if Alfreda Slominski is elected mayor. If she is,
then in January (this January) she will swear in her
cabinet. While she hasn't made any formal announcement of appointments, there have been some rumors.
The cabinet might look like this:
Bill Lyman
Commissioner of Police
Carmelo Parlato
Corporation Counsel
Donald L. Jackson
Commissioner of Urban Renewal
and, perhaps, to give the thing a bi-partisan touch
Ray Lewandowski
Model Cities Director
nice ethnic
A WASP, an Italian, a Negro and a Pole
balance, and they are all her friends or supporters. She,
and they, seek to be a part of that current national tide
of repression in the name of law and order. Alfreda
Siam inski, formerly of the CIA, is riding the crest.
"Things are bad now. What could she do
to make them worse?"
Let's take the police. Some are already club happy.
Suppose they didn't have to be careful any more? Captain
Whelan JUST began a retraining program that devotes
twice as much time to human relations training as to
weapons and self defense- We could go back to no time
for people; 44 hours for guns. People ore still being
beaten up and the law and order types still maintain
that the police are being forced to coddle "criminals.' Do
you trust Bill Lyman, or her for that matter, to remember
that criminals are persons convicted of a crime and that
the police deal with "suspects, not criminals.
Mrs. Slominski and Mr. Parlato served together on the
Board of Education. Both have earned reputations as
rabid opponents of integration. Parlato has been known
to take the view that integration plans are illegal per se
,

-

because they aim to place pupils on the basis of race.
Modest as the present integration plan is, as many as
4,000 kids could be sent back to ghetto schools if it were
rescinded.
Neither Mrs. Slominski nor Mr. Jackson favors federal
intervention in local affairs. Urban renewal is almost entirely federally financed. The last time this crew was in
the federal government
office, under Mayor Kowal,
found them so inept that they withdrew certification from
the city's urban renewal program. Some of Kowal's weeds
are still growing in the field that some insist on calling
the [llicott Redevelopment Area.
Vivid as our imaginations are, we can't imagine
Niodel Cities under Alfreda Slominski (except perhaps
relocated to the Lovejoy District). That program is now
slated for $12,000,000 in federal funds beginning next
year.

In Buffalo, progress is often measured in inches,
but it is progress, not regression. A dty that is just waking
up to the social hopes of the sixties, could so easily be

clubbed back to sleep. AHreda must be stopped. Of her
opponents, only one has a chance. Only Frank Sedita can

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

BuffaloNine stand trial again
by Sue Bachmann
News Editor

Culminating this weekend’s conference on

"Political Prisoners and Repression,” the Buffalo
Nine trial will open tomorrow following a massive
“march for justice” to the Federal Courthouse in
downtown Buffalo.
Scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m.. the trial
involves six individuals charged with “assaulting,
impeding or obstructing” a federal officer in the
performance of his duty during a rally at the
Unitarian Universalist Church in August, 1968.
The rally
originating when two draft
resisters, Bruce Beyer and Bruce Cline, tobk
symbolic sanctuary at the church for about two
weeks
was climaxed by a subsequent scuffle
with federal officers at which rtke arrests were
made.

Demonstrations and rallies
Four of those arrested were tried before a
jury la$t February in a trial characterized by
student demonstrations in Niagara Square as well
as nightly rallies on the University campus. The
resulting verdict was that Bruce Beyer was
convicted on two charges of assault, while Ray
Malak of SDS, Gerry Gross of Youth Against War
and Fascism and Karl Kronberg of the Peace and
Freedom Party received hung juries and will be
retried this week.
Joining these three will be William Berry,
one of the original Buffalo Nine, Richard Rose,
indicated eight days after the church arrest, and
SDS leader William Yates, indicted ten months
after the bust.
Mr. Yates was a key witness for the defense
last February and hopes to make this trial “a real
political education so that people understand its
social-political context and are not just marching
to release energy.”
“We’re going into the courtroom dressed just
as we always do,” he continued, “and we’re not
We see this as a
worrying about the verdicts
chance to speak for the movement and 1 believe
we should be able to reach those 12 jury
members.”
Mr. Yates stressed that “I’m committed
heart, soul and mind to the revolution and you
just don’t make a revolution without sacrifice.”
Picketing forbidden
Although Federal District Court Judge John
0. Henderson, who will preside over the case
insists that “there will be no picketing outside the
building like last time, and no congregating on the
first floor of the building.” Students still plan to
attend the trial and demonstrate in Niagara
Square.
Judge Henderson has also warned the
defendants that he will revoke their bail if he
finds it necessary. However, Mr. Yates explained
that the Buffalo Nine Defensee Committee is large
enough and well-organized enough to continue
mobilizing student support even if the defendants’
bail is revoked and they are confined to prison.
Attorneys for the defense this fall will be:
Willard Myers for Mr. Kronberg, Mr. Gross and
Mr. Berry, while Charles McCabe is the counsel
for Mr. Rose and New York attorney Carl
Bernstein represents Mr. Malak and Mr. Yates.
The prosecution is lead by U.S. Attorney H.
Kenneth Schroeder, Jr.
Mr. Schroeder is the same lawyer who sought
and obtained the injunction which ended the
occupation of Hayes Hall.
...

Clearly, the trial last year affected both
students and faculty for when the verdict was
announced in March, students threatened a strike,
as well as destroying the Project THEMIS
construction sheds and occupying Hayes Hall, the
administration building, for a night.
Political implications
The Executive Committee of the Faculty
Senate formally stated Wednesday that it
“expresses its deep interest in the current student
concern over the upcoming trial in the federal
courts and urges the faculty, the Faculty of Law
and Jurisprudence and its students, in particular,
to make themselves available for discussion.”
The political implications of the trial last
year were evident as the defendants and their
lawyers publicaliy denounced the Vietnam war
and “U.S. imperialism.” In addition, the Buffalo
Nine trial helped radicalize a larger student
population, as the membership of various student
left groups subsequently began to expand. Also,
as Mr. Yates noted: “At the beginning of the trial
last year there were only 40 draft resisters in the
area now there are about 490.”
When the verdict was announced last year,
students, enraged by the decision, “liberated”
-

Norton Hall and more than 30 draft cakls were
burned. Students also formulated a series of
demands which they submitted to the
administration soon afterwards. Throughout the
next weeks, numerous teach-ins were conducted
which initiated some significant reforms.
Specifically, moratorium on University
construction was called by the State Construction
Fund because students insisted that the
construction forces on the new campus must be
integrated so that there would be “Work For All.”
Recently the University College Curriculum
committee has recommended that the existing
ROTC program be stripped of its credit or that
the program be reformed as part of the University
curriculum. In one of their demands last year,
students requested that ROTC be abolished from
campus.
Although these changes were not due to the
Buffalo Nine trial alone, the political awakening
that occurred on the campus undoubtedly did
stem from the trial and its surrounding activities.
The effects of this year’s trial cannot yet be
determined, but if the literature already
circulating the campus is any indication, the
forthcoming Buffalo Nine trial will not be readily
forgotten.

An Open letter to students
by Sandy M. Hemingway It
Hey! Wait a minute. Let us get our marbles together. Lately we all have been really digging the scene on
campus, at least some of us have. But let us examine what this scene is all about and where it is going. The
scene I am talking about is the drug scene. The UB campus these few weeks or so, compared to previous
years, has been making its contributions to the world-wide drug movement. There are now more drugs
floating around this campus than ever before. This is in part due to the progressive drug culture movement
that is doing a thing and making a stand among the youth ail over the world Amsterdam, England, North
Africa and other places. Many of the UB students this summer did beautiful things when they made the
European trip! Many of them had out of sight times and experiences. Others of us have made the
Mexican-California trip this summer. Those of us who were not fortunate enough to make either of these
scenes, were able to make the Woodstock trip, which many of us read about in Europe.
This past summer, for many of us, was a finding out summer. We all found out a great deal about
ourselves and other people. We also found out that a large majority of the people in this country and in other
countries are not where it is really at. We have had the chance to gain some perspective of our country while
living in other places. These various governmental establishments are dictating to us that we, the younger
generation are not where it is at.
-

They see us with our long hair the A flican natural or the
hippie natural either of which is a natural thing.
-

They see us with our drugs - a joint, a cap

of acid, a gram of hash,

either of which is a beautiful thing.

They see us demonstrating against all the world injustices
the Vietnam war, the racial war, the educational reform
war, all ofwhich are needed things.

-

Our thing, brothers and sisters, is a righteous thing.
So let us keep that in mind all the time. What the world is now experiencing is a new birth called
awareness. The young people and some of the older ones are finding out that they no longer need a seeing
eye dog
the establishment
to lead them through life, where life is constantly being threatened by death,
a nuclear death. We are waking up and seeing that the pathways we have been walking are leading mankind to
sure destruction. We now want to find the right pathway that will enhance life, not destroy life.
But while we are searching for this new road, we must not get sloppy with our tools of knowledge.

Allenhurst residents arrested
Eight State University of Buffalo students will
be arraigned Thursday evening before Town of
Amherst Judge Edward L. Robinson following a
drug raid last week in an Allenhurst apartment.
Charged with felonious possession of a
dangerous drug in the first degree, the students were
arrested late Wednesday night when several
plain-clothed policemen entered the apartment with
a search warrant.
At this time it is uncertain as to whether there
was a sealed Grand Jury indictment against one of
the persons arrested at the time of the raid.
According to several persons present 'at the
scene of the arrest, two of the students were sleeping
when Lt. L. John Carr and four detectives entered
the apartment.
The students were taken to Amherst Police
Headquarters and booked on the aforementioned
charges. Bail originally was set by Judge Robinson at
$500 for each student. However, it was later reset at
$100 for each student.

Class C felony
The charges were made in accordance with
Section 22.20 of the New York State Penal Code.
Rated class C felony, conviction carries' a possible
sentence of one to 15 years imprisonment.
Neither Lt. Carr nor any of the four detectives
present Wednesday night were available for comment
on the raid.
It was at first believed that a sealed indictment
had been issued for one of the students. This type of
indictment may be obtained by a police officer from
the country Grand Jury if he is able to prove that
there is probable cause to believe that a crime is
being committed.
Evidence for an indictment of this nature is
gathered by some sort of surveillance work done by
a law enforcement agent. In the case of drugs, a
person seen purchasing the drug, smoking it, or the
smell of any drugs in the vicinity of the pperson’s
living quarters constitute evidence for a possible
Grand Jury indictment.

The

Philosophy

Graduate

staged a
demonstration last Thursday at
the Ridge Lea campus in protest
of a restrictive PhD program
instituted by the department. The
demonstrators, picketing outside

Association

of two classes, voiced their
support of certain graduate
students who have dropped
courses now required by the

Philosophy department.
The two courses are part of the
new PhD program set up by the

Philosophy department which was
unanimously opposed by the
GPA. The program consists of five
required courses at the end of
which the students are required to
take a departmental exam.
Previously, the graduate students
were required to take four or five
preliminaries before writing a

dissertation.
A committee of students and
faculty, appointed by the faculty,
was set up to deal with the
grievances created by the old
program. The committee came up
with a liaison proposal which was
passed by the faculty and students
on the committee, and then
unanimously by the GPA.
The liaison proposal consists of
a three-man committee of
professors picked by the graduate
students, who would work to

construct individual programs.
Program denied
The Philosophy department
instead implemented this
five-course required program. The
graduate students oppose the
restrictive aspect of this program.
Alex Delfini, a graduate student
explained: “What the present
five-course program implies for us
is the development of technical
competence rather than the
development of us as serious
philosophers. It is for this reason
that we are opposed to this new
program and call for the
institution of the GPA

proposaal.”
To solidify their opposition
campaign, the GPA began a
petition campaign, which was
signed by a vast majority of
students. Joe Ferrandino, GPA

president,

said; “We believe that
this petition contains the will of
the majority of the philosophical

community.”

We support their (the
students’) right to educational
self-determination,” expressed Mr.
Ferrandino. Concerning the
demonstration he added: “As
president of the GPA, I was very
pleased with the turnout and the
strong show of support and
solidarity.”

Polity must decide its future
Polity, the governmental organ
student body, was
provisionally abolished on
Thursday. At the meeting of the
Student Coordinating Council, a
resolution was passed effecting
this and giving the Coordinating
Council full executive and
legislative power over the student
of

the

body.

This legislation has not yet,
however, come to a vote before
the Polity itself, which will
convene in the Haas Lounge on
Friday at 1 p.m. At this time it
will either vote itself out of
existence or decide to continue
functioning.
The reasons for this move are
based on the faults in the nature
of Polity itself, according to
members of the Student
Coordinating Council.
They have claimed that Polity
was ineffective because of its
constantly changing make-up. It
could be dominated by the SDS
one week and arch conservatives
the next.

Inconsistent participation
As a result, no steady student
voice on important matters could
be heard. In addition, First Vice

President of the Student
Association George Heymann has
said that this characteristic of
constant flux has negated any
power
that the Student
Coordinating Council was given in
the Student Association
Constitution.
Should the proposition be
passed by Polity, the Council will

become the sole

executive and

body in the student
government. Although this group
would be small, it is the opinion
legislative

of one council member that this
group would be more
representative of the general
student body than the Polity ever
was.

would last only until the.

Committee, which ,has been
conferring all summer, can come
up with an alternate set of
proposals on a system of student

of the body voted to raise the

move was taken, according to

�Gallery West: A collage of
mid-century color and form
by Lawrence Bednarski
Spectrum

Staff Writer

11 p.m. lights dimmed, doors closed tucked
in a comer below a Claisse red and green collage, an
inebriated dog yawned taking refuge from the still
milling crowd.
Stimulating, vibrant, innovative, exciting and
refreshing are comments to herald the International
Graphic Exhibition opening at the Gallery West
which featured works of Claisse, Soto and House.
The International Graphic Exhibition is the first
of nine scheduled shows for the Gallery’s second

season.

This year the Gallery has set up a reciprocal
exchange with the Pollock Galleries.„of Toronto so as
to give each show a wide range of artists and styles
from Europe, Canada and the United States.

Dimensional simplicity

Miss Claisse, a contemporary French artist, uses
circles and squares in bright, even shocking color
contrasts. Yet, her use of color and common forms
does not detract but rather adds a real live feeling to

her works.

*

Using a stark black background, Mr. Soto adds
simple lines and touches of yellow forming a
contemporary masterpiece whose simplicity blends
in with that of the gallery setting.
Much of modem art deals with simple lines and
forms expressing the artist’s own feelings. Miss
Claisse formulates bright color contracts with set
shapes to express'lier versions of reality. Soto uses
black on white lines in rectangles to become two

Gallery, West is an undertaking by five local
people very much involved in the art scene. Russell
Drisch, a professional photographer; Marylyn
McTaggert, a commercial artist involved with the
Studio Arena; Larry and Gerry Bell; and Tony
Gabrielli, a teacher in a suburban Buffalo school are
the five originators of Gallery West.

Support the Gallery
Of the owners, Mr. Pollock commented;
“Getting five people to work together as one on such
an undertaking is complementary. The fruits of their
efforts are superb. I only hope that their enthusiasm
will be welcomed and supported by the people of
Buffalo.”
Russell Drisch has won awards and acclaim for
many of his photographic works, which are also on
exhibit at the gallery. He said he was very happy to
see so many interested people and hopes that with
upcoming shows the support and enthusiasm will

remain.

Larry Bell, another co-owner sai'd':'“Buffalo has
the chance of seeing some of the masters' of the 60’s
and mid-twentieth century.”
The Gallery West is unique in the fact that it is
one of the first galleries of its kind in Western New
York. It offers not only the opportunity to view
some of the best artists, but also the chance to
acquire pieces at a moderate price.

Tomorrow six of the Buffalo Nine go on trial. Three were
and received hung juries. The other
in February
three were never even indicted until last April a full month
after the completion of the original trials and the sentencing
of Bruce Beyer. Of this last group, William Berry was
arrested while running alongside a crowd at the church
where the federal agents came to take Beyer away for draft
resistance in August, 1968. Richard Rose was arrested while
at a preliminary hearing forthe others as he satin the court
And Mr. Yates was indicted in April, after having been a
witness for the defense in the first trials.
Ray Malaak, Carl Kronberg
The three who face re-trial
are, coincidentally, leaders of SDS, the
and Jerry Gross
Peace and Freedom Party and Youth Against War and
Fascism
At a demonstration downtown after Bruce Beyer’s
sentencing in March, nine more were arrested on charges
varying from “illegal use of a bullhorn” to “resisting arrest.”
Mr. Gross was arrested again at this time and charged with
suspicion of stealing the car he was driving. Later, this charge
was changed to driving without a registration and failure to
notify the Bureau of Motor Vehicles of a change of address.
When these also fell through, they were replaced with the
charge of possession of a dangerous drug. It is interesting to
note that one of the tenets of Youth Against War and
Fascism, of which Jerry Gross is a leading member, is
opposition to the use of drugs.
Carl Kronberg, after another trial resulting from his arrest
at the Urban Action Center last fall, was found guilty of
contempt of court and fined $ 100 when he told members of
the press that his trial was unfair and the court corrupt.
The thirteen-month history of the Buffalo Nine
demonstrates that the Federal judicial system has more than
a casual interest in the eventual conviction and
imprisonment of these people and that of all who oppose
the policies of the government it serves.
The legal action against the Buffalo Nine is a political
trial in the sense that draft-resistance is a political act, those
defendants singled out for arrest are very political people
and the efforts of a government to suppress dissent is
political repression.
Bruce Beyer has already been sentenced to three years
imprisonment. The six defendants who go on trial tomorrow
all face between three and six year sentences depending on
the number of counts with which they are charged. They
deserve the support of the students and faculty of the

University
both philosophically and physically
and outside. A conviction of any or all of the Buffalo Nine is
a conviction of us all. It is also an indictment of the Federal
government on charges which, up till now, only a few have
known but whose validity many are coming to realize.

Having discussed the effects of marijuana
smoking with a number of persons, I found that the
ignorance which prevails on that subject is actually
outrageous. Marijuana has become the most
overemphasized, ever publicized phenomena of our
time.

Many adults could not (or would not) admit
that there may be a connection between the way
marijuana smokers regard the drug and the way
many of them viewed alcohol during the days of
prohibition. Persons who drank during the
prohibition days felt that what they were doing was

.

Even sadder is the wide-spread belief that
alcohol is by no means as dangerous as marijuana. I
tried to convince so many people that if they only
knew how harmful it is to the human digestive
system to continually pour down alcohol, and how
brain-damaging alcohol can be, they would switch to
marijuana in an instant.

But, it is a truly- unfortunate situation which
prevails. No one wants to believe the truth about the
drug. It can only be slightly consoling to imagine
that maybe someday people will look back on these
days in the same way as we look back upon
prohibition: as a mockery of common sense.

The former he defines as “the

and of the latter “the black

Dr. Hamilton noted that while

racial equality or decision-making
authority for Negroes.
“One should not begin to

“It’s clear to me that Columbia

�Bronx Bombs say
‘goodbye’ to Allie
by Ed Levine
Spectrum Staff Writer

After years of being a Yankee Stadium standard, our old favorite.
“Goodbye Allie,” has finally made it to the top of the charts. Allie
Sherman was dropped as coach of the Bronx Bombs, replaced by
former star fullback Alex Webster.
1 am afraid that Alex’s powers may not be enough to return the
Giants to the winner’s circle.
Before he left, Allie managed to cut most of the available talent on

the riches to the Long Island Bulls.” Anyway. Allie cut Pete Gent. Sam
Silas, Roger Anderson, Clark Miller, Ken Avery, Barry Brown
(remember Henry Carr?) and a host of others.
My gripe with Allie, though goes back to the Bears’ title game a few
light years ago. When Phil King missed a screen pass trom V. A. Tiirle
and Sam Huff didn’t react to a draw play, Allie was miffed. By the
start of the next season. King and Huff were gone. I have never
forgiven Mr. Sherman for destroying a dynasty.
Good fortune to Alex Webster.
World Series time approaches and baseball fever has risen to an
unprecedented pitch. The Mets arc amazing, but that's not all. Do you
know that as of last Friday, the Dodgers. Braves. Giants and Reds all
had the same number of losses? Do you know that the Yankees are
finishing a mighty fifth out of six?
Enough trivia. Let’s get down to business. The Mets. Led by the
clutch rbi hitting of slugging shortstop Al Weis, the Mets arc going to
win the National League East, finishing with the best percentage in the
league. Cleon Jones, who hasn’t played in two weeks, is leading the
league in hitting, Tom Seaver in wins. Rod Caspar in outfield assists,
Wayne Garrett in gamers, and Gary Gentry in gopher balls. Just
beautiful. The Mets arc going to win the pennant. Think about it a

world and themselves by leading the National League
East, figure that they can't do any worse in football.
Joe Willie had better get the message.

HAPPY HOME

These tools of knowledge are the constructive
insights we gain from rap sessions we have with our
fellow students and ourselves, the insights we gain
from our experiences, and the insights that are
gained from the
which has become
the younger generation’s subculture in this country.
It is to this concept of drugs that I wish to rap on.
First of all, what does the drug culture signify?
It signifies togetherness, brotherly love, and mental
insights into one’s own self and others. When one is
sitting in a group that is passing around a joint or
pipe filled with hashish as in North Africa, Spain, or
Amsterdam, what does it all mean?It for once in the
fc
history of mankind, means a coming together of
people to share different experiences. It is in the
concept behind the joint, not in the smoking of the
joint that one finds great meaning in things. The
passing of the joint or pipe is a symbol of closeness
and love that one feels for the person nextto him.
The dropping of acid or mescaline is the probing
instrument that is used to delve into deeper and
more profound matters of one’s self and others. The
result of these two acts are personalized insights
about life and all it has to offer.
It is through this drug culture that young people
in this country, and other countries, are learning to
appreciate the simple and beautiful things, along
with understanding the more complex things in life.
These things involve music, dancing, love, art,
literature, food, politics and anything else that one
can be totally into. As a result of this, we are now
getting into the analytical phase of awareness
where after one becomes aware of the right and
wrong things in life, he next analyzes it for its
constructive and destructive values, hoping to
improve on those qualities that are lacking and
strengthen those qualities that need improving. This
is what the whole drug culture is all about, bqf to
our superiors (whoever they might be), we are only
destroying our mental and physiological make up.
For some of us this is sad but true, but on the whole
it is a falsehood. It has awakened us to many of the
evils and injustices present in society.
What I am saying is this
let us be cooler and
more together in the handling of drugs. It can be a
insight into the future if done right. Let us not,
as f have heard and seen while walking through the
halls of Norton, start bragging about who can get
higher than who, or who can freak the most on the
dance floor, or who can out freak everybody else in
dress. All of these attitudes are not where it is at. I
am not saying, not get high, or not to freak on the
dance floor, or not to freak in dress. Hey man! If
that is where your head is sincerely at, then by all

means do your thing, for we all have to do our own
individual thing. But let us try and do a total thing
together. Let us leant to watch for each other. Let us_
not blow ourselves away so easily, like smoking on
the floor of Norton, even though that might seem
like the hip thing to do which, in fact, might be
your natural thing. But when you have finished
taking a drag or two. take a second look around and
check out the cat next to you, or the one that is
leaning on the wall directly across from you,
watching you and checking you out, for this cat may
be a narco, and if he is, you can bet that he is going
to do his own thing.
As we all know, this is an election year all over
the country
and especially in Buffalo. Onp of the
main campaign issues this year in Buffalo is the UB
drug scene, which has been going on for a long time.
For many of the politicians UB represents votes for
them from the community. You see, it is not only
the cops and other cats that do not dig us and what
we are doing, the community does not dig us. This is
seen when one of us goes out to get an off-campus
apartment. They are not only racist to black people,
but to a large majority of students in general. They
would give anything to see us get busted and thrown
in jail. Many of them are looking for ways to get on
this campus, and at the moment drugs are their
possible in. The more busts the Amico’s can make,
the greater are their gains for getting elected.
The last of this note concerns the freshmen
class. As your name implies, “freshmen,” is just what
you are. You are fresh to the life on this campus.
Most of you for this first time in your life are away
from the home rule of your parents. You are now
totally responsible for your own actions. Do not
jeopardize yourself or others by being careless and
inexperienced with your drugs, which some of you
treat as toys.
Learn to be careful in what you say and do.
Many of you have never been involved in a drug bust
and do not know what it is all about. It is no fun to
see a friend busted because he or she was careless in
what they were doing.
Many of you have become so fascinated by this
whole scene that you. as well as many of the older
students have become light-headed about the
possibility of getting busted, and as a result you are
dropping your guard. When you start dropping your
guard, just beware of the possibility of being
punched and scored upon, because it can happen to
you. Do not let the cops gel a score or win a round

watch out and he cool with your drugs.

�Destruction threatened

Themis continues to grow
concrete and tension
“If Themis goes up, Themis blows up!"
Students for a Democratic Society.
“These activists must realize that free speech is
their right. But stabbing people, setting fire and
raping girls are all criminal actions which must be
punished by the state ... There is no justification
for committing a crime,” Raymond Ewell, Vice
President for Research.
Construction continued throughout the summer
on Project Themis, a research program in human
physiology. However, it is again this semester a
major controversial issue on the campus of the State
University of Buffalo.
Bruce Beyer of SDS defined that organization’s
aims in regards to the University: “With an acute
housing shortage and overcrowding of student
facilities and classes, all of which require immediate
attention and funds, the University is able to reverse
priorities by funding half a million dollars to a long
term defense project .
“We are presently concerned with making the
student community aware of present conditions,” he
continued. “Themis must fall again.”

As the Themis construction site

continues.

Coordinator posts open
Due to the recent resignation of the Academic
Affairs Coordinator and the need for a Freshman
Coordinator, the Student Coordinating Council has
two vacancies which must be filled by early October.
The positions of Academic Affairs Coordinator is
open to any undergraduate, while the Freshman
Coordinator post may only be filled by a freshman.
The election for Academic Affairs Coordinator
will take place Oct. 10 and the Freshmen
Coordinator will be elected on Oct. 13.
Any students interested in running for either of
these positions must obtain 200 signatures on a
petition. Candidates for the freshman office will
have to limit their signatures to freshmen only.
Petitions will be available in room 205, Norton Hall

Prestigious research
The importance of the Department of Defense
sponsored research to the university was discussed
by Dr. Ewell: ‘The obligation of today’s university
is to provide a competent teaching staff for its
student body. Schools like Harvard and Stanford are
able to attract such staffs because of their prestige.
My belief is that the research that a university

sponsors along with its public service functions
makes that university prestigious.”
Project Themis first came into the public eye in
March 1969 when a call to students and faculty to
mobilize against the construction was issued by the
Community for Real Change.
As a result, students angered by developments in
the Buffalo Nine trial took over Hayes Hall and
subsequently went on to tear down Project Themis
construction sheds.
Leon Farhi, director of the project said recently
that he hopes the construction ofThemis will not be

marred by outbreaks of violence. He believes that
the controversy should be handled “as grown up
people through serious discussions.”
Completion timetable
The approximate timetable for the completion
of Project Themis was revealed by Dr. Farhi:
completion of the shell in mid-December;
installation of centrifuge, high pressure chamber and
submergence area in October 1970, and complete
operational building by the end of 1970.
The history of Project Themis at the University
has involved much action and counter-action both
by students and administrators.
CRC opposed Project Themis because the work
force constructing the building was not racially
integrated. They interpreted Themis as a concrete
issue in which students could become politically
involved.

Students answered the call of CRC when they
demolished the construction shacks at the Themis
site.

President Meyerson then appointed Professors
Robert B. Fleming and James L. Magavem, faculty
of Law and Jurisprudence to investigate the
destruction at the Themis Construction site. The
lawyers submitted their findings to Peter F. Regan,
Executive Vice President, on May 22,1969.
The accumulated evidence indicated that
approximately $4700 of damage was done at the
construction site for the Physiology Department,
and that 14 students and one non-student were
allegedly associated with the damage.
Civil action

In accordance with President Meyerson’s
expressed intentions, the evidence was turned over
to the University’s attorneys in Albany. Soon
afterwards the report Was turned over to the State
Attorney General, who will seek restitution through
appropriate civil action.
Mr. Fleming recently emphasized the fact that
the University was not pressing charges for criminal
action against the students.

�UC Committee
offers ROTC
alternatives
by Dennis Arnold
News Editor

,The University College Curriculum Committee took a major step
Wednesday towards determing the future of Air Force ROTC at the
State University of Buffalo.
In a resolution passed by a nine to one vote, the Curriculum
Committee recommended that either the existing ROTC program be
stripped of accreditation or that a broader military science program be
developed within the university structure as rapidly as possible.
The resolution, submitted by Dr. John Dings, Faculty of Arts and
Letters, further elaborated the alternative solution of broadening the
current military science program. To achieve this the Curriculum
Committee recommends that present members of the University’s
faculty be utilized and that the Department of Aerospace Studies be
placed within one of the seven Faculties.

Objections stated
In a letter to Claude Welch, Dean of University College, Dr. Dings
stated his objections to the Air Force ROTC program. He touched
upon the issues of academic freedom and acdemic qualifications for
teaching, saying “the University should be committed to liberal and
democratic ideas of education.
“It should not make rules against any instructor’s personal,
professional, or political biases and affiliations and it should not ratify
any such biases and affiliations by putting itself, as an institution,
under contract to any other institution in ways that will directly affect
its curriculum and faculty.”
Principles violated
Dr. Dings feels that the State University of Buffalo’s involvement
with the Air Force violates these principles and suggests that “if we are
going to have military officers on campus, they should be hired
directly and individually by established academic departments.”
Concerning professional qualifications he added that “ROTC
professors are not qualifed to teach within this University.” This, he
believes, is due to the narrowness of their background which results in
such professors being technicians “responsible only for the
transmission of settled, orthodox truth.”
Although the entire Curriculum Committee was not present at the
meeting, the recommendations will stand because the majority of the
17-membercommittee has already affirmed them.
The text of the resolution will now be considered by an ad hoc

Severly hampered by a lack, of funds, the Marching Band of the
State University of Buffalo will be silent and stationary tomorrow
when the football Bulls play Xavier University, in Rotary field.
Although the Marching Band has submitted lengthy financial
reports to various administrators, and has sought financial aid from
local industries and the Alumni Association, the band did not receive
enough money to hold a pre-semester band camp to prepare for their
first performance.
Appealing to Sub-Board 1 as a last resort, the band discovered that
they could only be allotted $2000 from the Board
an amount that
would get them started but was not enough to finance their trips to
away games their entertaining of visiting bands or the substinence of
their own concert band. p.
In a statement to President Meyerson, Frank J. Cipolla, director of
the band, noted that “the marching band as it has been known in the
past no longer exists.”
The size of the band has been reduced to 100 musicians instead of
the usual 160, and although the band will perform during halftime at
the second football game, all subsequent performances remain an
uncertainty. Since the band could not afford a summer camp session,
they have had no rehearsals and have not issued any instruments or
uniforms.
In a plea to the Student Body, the band states: “As a recognized
student organization, the band feels that it should have the support of
the entire student body. It is a shame that a band such as ours, with
the recognition and honors we have received should lose our rightful
position on campus. We are asking the entire student body to support
our band.”

Mr. Saul Elkin is directing it.
Van Itallie calls his play a “collective ceremony.” It is “an improvisational
confrontational with some basic assumptions we have about the birth of violence and

sexuality.”
The play calls for a large company of actors, actresses and musicians. Auditions will
be held Tuesday and Wednesday, Sept. 23 and 24 at 7:30 p.m. in 625 Harriman Library.

Although Sub-Board I has been able to aid the Music Department
in the past, Jiro Estrada, Financial Manager of Sub-Board I explained
that they have already “gone into deficit because of over-allocation”
and have already had to substantially decreased their “reserves.”
Since the state has neglected to properly fund the Music
Department and Sub-Board I cannot afford to do it themselves, it
appears that the future of the Marching Band is not a very definite
one.

Colorless gas
Vinyl chloride is a relatively
common, colorless gas used in the
plastics and rubber industries as a
bonding agent.

When exposed to heat and
oxygen, however, especially in the
“presence of a catalyzing agent
such as steel from a railroad tank
car, vinyl chloride produces
phosgene gas.

The effect of this gas upon
humans who breathe it, is known
as “pulmonary aderaa,” The lungs
of the victim become filled with
water. The result has been
described as similar to a severe
case of pneumonia.

�Buffalo’s mayor interviewed

Sedita’s running on his record
by Mike McKeating
City Editor

“The major issue of this campaign is my record,”
Buffalo Mayor Frank A. Sedita told The Spectrum in an
exclusive interview Monday.
and we’re going to break ground
“My record is one of relative
community peace, of progress in
race relations, of moving ahead on
urban renewal, of progress and
stability in the. city’s relations

record touches all of these

things

and 1 think it is a good one.”
Speaking of his principal
Alfreda W.
Slominski, the mayor said:
“She has no record. She’s fond
of speaking to small groups of her
own supporters where there is no
one present to refute her charges.
But that won’t do. When you’re
running for mayor, you’ve got to
face the issues. Nobody is going to
vote for a candidate who is afraid
to face the issues.”
“The "key question is whether
the progress we’ve made in the
last four years is going to
continue,” the mayor added.

Councilman-at-Large

Progress cited

“We’ve made progress in the
field of civil rights and race
relations, for example. We
established the Office »of Police
Community Relations after
sending its director, Captain John
Whalen, back to college for a year
to get his master’s degree.
“We’ve also made progress in
the field of urban renewal. We’ve
gotten ‘phase two’ in the Ellicott
District going again, which was
dormant when 1 took office.
We’ve built the Main Place Mall

soon for 2400 housing units in the
Waterfront Project.
“We’ve got to renew this city,”
the mayor continued. “It’s getting
old. There are thousands
air two family dwellings that
simply are not fit to live in any
more. They’ve got to come down
and they’ve got to he replaced
But it’s a continual job. It can’t be
done all at once.”
Cites new campus
“In addition, the building of
the largest university campus in
the world here within the next six
years is going to necessitate many
changes, changes which are going
to require a lot of planning and
imagination. Two things which
come to mind immediately are
that we’re going to need alot of
low and middle-income housing
and we’re going to need a rapid

transit system.”
The mayor, relaxing behind his
desk in shirt sleeves and
suspenders, which have become
his trademark, took exception to
charges by the New Democratic
Coalition to the effect that
neither major party is interested
in registering minority group
members to vote.
“The NDC is 1000% wrong as
far as the Democratic Party is
concerned,” the mayor said. “We
have taken surveys which show
that three out of every five new
voters will register Democratic
and we have reason to believe that
the rate will be even higher among

interview Monday in his
office.
"

“Paul and I are old friends,” he
said. “I was one of the first
Democratic office-holders to
endorse him when he ran for the
Senate last year and I would hope
that he will endorse me this year.”
The mayor charged that by
concentrating on the issue of “law
and order,” Mrs. Slominski and
her supporters have demonstrated
that they are representative of an
ugly trend which is sweeping the
country.
The mayor got up and walked
over to a clothes tree in the corner

of the office, where his suit jacket
was hanging. He reached into the
pocket, and withdrew a piece of
paper.

Produces quote
“You know,” he said, “1 was
glancing through a magazine a
couple of weeks ago, when I came
across this quote. It struck me as
so indicative of the type of
mentality which is behind the ‘law
and order’ hysteria, that 1 thought
I’d cut it out and save it for the
right moment.”

The Incumbent

Area newspapers
in court challenge
An unknown plaintiff has
taken The Buffalo Evening News
and Courier-Express to court in an
attempt to prohibit publication of
information from an Erie County
grand jury report on the operation
of Meyer Memorial Hospital.

In a special term of the State
Supreme Court, Tuesday the
“fugitive plaintiff’s” attorney,
William J. Cunningham; asked the
court to order that the separately
owned newspapers be enjoined
“from publishing, disseminating
and distributing in any form any
information” concerning the
report.

Justice Joseph P. Kuszynski
reserved decision on the question.
Mr. Cunningham’s petitiop
claimed that “irreparable harm
will be inflicted upon the plaintiff
should the report of the grand
jury be released. My unnamed
client has a good and meritorious
defense and we intend to argue
the appeal (asking for permanent
suppression) on Oct. 20, 1969.”
This appeal will be in Rochester.

The quote read as follows:
“The streets of our country are
in turmoil. The universities are
filled with students rebelling and
rioting. Communists are seeking
to destroy our country. Russia is
threatening us with her might.
And the republic is in danger. Yes,
danger from within and from
without. We need law and order!

Atty. Raichle also asked why
the plaintiff sought an injunction
when the newspapers had already
done what they might be enjoined
from doing.
“How can 1 be enjoined from
signing a deed if I’ve already
signed it?” he asked.
The plaintiff’s attorney
repeated the information given in
his petition to the court.
The grand jury document
reportedly recommends
the
removal of Dr. L. Edgar Hummel,

ROTC should go
Wednesday’s decision of the Univeisity College curriculum
Committee recommending that the ROTC program lose its
accreditation or become incorporated into one of the existing seven
Facilities is long overdue.
While other Universities have reduced their ROTC programs to the
level of an extracurricular activity or abolished it from campus
altogether, the State University of Buffalo has maintained the
curriculum as a full academic equal to any of its other educational
pursuits.

_

Wjffh STICK otf^

Ihe ROTC curriculum as it currently exists is set by the
Department of Defense and its faculty are appointments not of the
University, but of the military. It stands as the only department
considered a part of the University but not subject to its jurisdiction.
And eacy year it chums out more military men whose “liberal
University education” consists of such official goals as “familiarity
with the factors and instruments of national power and the manner in
which these instruments are used to attain national objectives.”
The University, perhaps, can do very little to bring down the
American military establishment. But one of the things it can do is
refuse to allow that establishment to train its cannon fodder within the
academic community. We hope that the recommendation of the
Curriculum Committee will live to be aired on the floor of the Faculty
Senate, and we further urge that when it does come up for a vote, this
University opts for complete withdrawl of accreditation and not
simply the incorporation of the same military program into another
Faculty, and under a different guise.

Poison gas
Last week a train carrying shipments of vinyl chloride derailed in
Glendora, Mississippi causing the evacuation of 30,000 residents from
11 towns and the death of countless livestock and domestic pets. Vinyl
chloride, while harmless in its normal state, turns to deadly phosgene
gas when exposed to heat and oxygen, as was the case in the train
derailment.
The Spectrum has learned that last Tuesday night a similar
shipment was made by rail from Buffalo to Niagara Falls. And the
tracks on which these cars travel pass right by the Ridge Lea campus in
Amherst. Vinyl chloride travels this route regularly on its way from
Buffalo chemical plants to rubber and plastic companies where it is
used as bonding agent.
So far all the shipments have arrived without incident. However, it
doesn’t take much imagination to realize what might happen if one
like the cars carrying the
day one of those trains doesn’t make it
shipment last week in Glendora, Mississippi. Phosgene gas is so awful in
effects that it was outlawed by the Geneva Protocol of 1925 for use
even in cases of war
an agreement which the United States,
incidentally, did not feel bound to sign.
Yes, we have been lucky so far, but another derailment in another
city
conceivably Buffalo
might produce casualties that are not
dogs or livestock but University students
and the residents of
surrounding towns. Rep. Richard Me Carthy of Buffalo has been
adamant in his opposition to gas shipments of this kind, and members
of the community Have raised their voices in condemnation as well.
It is now up to University students and officials to take a strong
stand against these potentially deadly shipments of vinyl chloride
which pass by the Ridge Lea campus on a regular basis. Such a
situation cannot be allowed to continue, and we call upon the
administration as well as the student body to join the mounting
opposition to local shipments of poison gas.

impossible for most of those who believe in the
purity of the police department to even
comprehend. The crunch, the moment of truth,
apparently does not arrive until the judge has to
believe you or the cop(s), and you know you are
telling the truth and he is lying but there is only one
outcome 99.$9% of the time, and truth has little to
do with it. I dislike having to deal in non-specifics as
much as you dislike having to read them. I can only
hope that it is my pleasure to byline the whole story
sometime in the coming year.
All of which makes you wonder even more about
going to Mars. Or at least it makes me wonder. One
of the consistent arguments I have been getting into
about Midnight Cowboy is the fact that my mother
insists that the film makes no moral judgements, that
it shows it “the way it is.” Being somewhat freaky I
have the peculiar notion that by showing “the way it
is” you are making a drastic moral judgement about
the USA and especially about urban life. I have the

�Erroneous ad letter

To the editor

1 am surprised that The Spectrum would lend even
its letters’ column to such libelous statements as those of
Mr. Resnikoff. His letter of September 17 is full of errors.
The ad in question was placed by the Committee Against
Slominski not by Citizens Against Slominski, the letter is
incidently made up of Lane supporters. The ad did
contain the name of those who placed it, namely The
Committee Against Slominski. The intent of the law is
that there be some means of contacting the group. The ad
contained a phone number which is listed in my name. In
addition, communications written to us in care of The

Coalition.

The attitude of the administration of this country-your
America-is cynical, conservative, hypocritical. Since when is it a
“significant step” to remove 60,000 men from war and continue to
leave 489,000 men in that war? All politics aside: common sense will
tell you that we still have 89% of our imperialist forces in the field
Even Mr. Johnson is reported to have said that he could have taken out
65,000 men (pared away the “fat” of the army) and not materially or
logistically affect the progress of American involvement in the
slightest. It is pure hypocrisy to say that “the time for meaningful
negotiations has arrived” when our side is not, in reality, getting out of
the war, but merely maintaining itself on a “newly authorized troop
ceiling.” Let history record that at this critical moment both sides
turned their faces toward peace, rather than toward conflict and war,
he says. Rot. How can this man make such a comment in view of the
overwhelming evidence that America’s face is still turned toward the
war?

It is possible. We have forgotten something. We have forgotten the
nature and character of the man who made that statement. We have
forgotten the makeup of the people who are advising this minority
President. If a person can, on June 19 this year, say to the American
people that he wants to withdraw more than 100,000 troops by
December 31, and three months later turn right around and go back on
his word to 200 million people-well, that type of equivocation just
won’t wash. He’s no leader. He’s a weak opportunist who is using the
war issue to be re-elected in three years. Can a man refer to people
fighting for their lives as merely a “newly authorized troop ceiling?”
That is thing talk, man, that is bureaucratese. Of course, the secretary
of war, the U.S. ambassador in Vietnam and General Abrams like that
sort of talk. It means more troops for the machine, more dollars for
the bombs, more factories making more planes, tank, artillery, fleets
and missiles.
Even General Ky said that we could pull out 40,500 men. Even
General Ky was more optimistic than our own “leader.” Fine. Let him
string out his puppet troops and completely replace American
warriois-it will not matter in the least to the eventual outcome of this
conflict. The people will rise against him continually, just as they have
against all who oppress their right to live in peace as they want. They
will destroy him as they destroyed Diem, as they destroyed the
French, as they destroyed the Japanese, as they have destroyed all
their oppressors. This greatest of American tragedies hinges ultimately,
when all is said and done, on our refusal to allow the 1956 elections to
place the late President Ho Chi Minh in office as leader of a united
state. Mr. Nixon: how many more lives are you going to fritter away
on a lost, meaningless cause? How much more blood do you plan to
spill in useless struggle? It is useless to oppose the people’s will. It is
your war, Mr. Nixon. It is you who are slandering the name of the
American people. It is you who have lost.

Q)

The University of Buffalo Marching Band is not
performing during the half-time at this Saturday’s football
game. This is due to the fact that the band did not receive
sufficient financial backing from student activities fees to
hold pre-semester rehearsals needed to put on a show.
I feel disheartened that the band has not received the
support it deserves because it has been a source of both
entertainment and service to the University community.
The University of Buffalo MarchinggBand has a hundred or
more members but it received less money than other
activities or clubs of comparable size and activity.

I feel ashamed that an outside group will be

performing at half-time instead of the U.B. Marching Band.

�Activists plan conference

to “inspire” action

Apathy replaces anger for many
by Jay Schreiber
Feature Editor

As the Woodstock rite moved into
celebration of its second
dawn, the eyes of the gentle army
could eclipse both Peter Townsend
and the slowly rising sun, still half
exposed and tender. The Who were
and the mass huddled in a weary
religious embrace, slowly sucking on
the music.
Suddenly Abbie Hoffman, the
yippie turned anarchist, was on the
stage, shouting into the microphone
about John Sinclair, a fairly
well-known political-life style
revolutionary from Detroit. “All you
people,” yelled Hoffman, “are sitting
here enjoying yourselves while John
Sinclair just got busted for ten years
for possession of two joints.”
In fairness to everyone, only
about 17 people there knew that the
guy on stage was Abbie Hoffman,
who himself is one of the ‘Chicago 8’
going to trial for last summer’s
convention disruptions. And
Hoffman, who is very funny
sometimes, probably was just as
interested in the results of his little
psychodrama as he was in getting
across the obvious irony of this
Catskill revolution.
The crowd booed Hoffman, not
with hostility but out of sheer
annoyance. “Cut it with the heavy
raps, man,” someone yelled, it was
like telling your mother to stop
nagging. Townsend, a true originator,
was again one step ahead, shoving
Hoffman off the stage and resuming
Tommy in one smooth motion.

Repression anyone?
Effectively selling the idea of
political repression is becoming
increasingly difficult. It is not that
people are not outraged by Eldridge
Cleaver’s forced exile, People’s Park
and the various stockade incidents,
rather it is the gloom with which the
evidence is constantly packaged that
has led to apathetic, even bored
-acceptance of the crime.
The rapidly increasing political
awareness of the last few years
spawned the “youth” revolution but
it has since migrated from its original
negative stance. The vital current
now is rock music, drugs and formal
and informal experiments with ones
own sensitivity. It is positive, happy
and comfortably supported by the
idiology that one can do what
really wants, the hang-up is in your
own head. In this setting the spectres
of repression have a hard time
stimulating any emotional chords.
Our response to any particularly
hideous act of the establishment
such as the Army’s 15-year sentences
to the Presidio stockade protestors is
the same, genteel, respectable anger
that a gruff, spiteful, Wallace
lollower would demonstrate if he
saw an old lady being mugged on the

Q: When will the Speeded Reading and Study Course, sponsored
by University College, begin? Why is there a charge for the course this
year?
A; The first session of the course, which is non-credit, meets the
week of September 29. There will be six different sessions, each
meeting for 11 weeks. The sessions are scheduled for 11 a.m, and 12
p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Classes will meet in room
30S Diefendorf Hall; the fee is $15.00. Students may sign up for this
course in room 106 Diefendorf Hall.
The fee charge is necessary inasmuch as the cost item for this
course had been deleted from the budget this year. Because of the
great demand for the course, however, it was decided to make it
available but offer it as an income-offset account.
Q: In a double major in two different areas (e.g. Mathematics and
Psychology), may the field of concentration requirements of one be
used for partial satisfaction of the distribution requirement?
A: Yes
Q: Is there a Notary Public on campus who can verify my
signature on a legal document?
A: Mrs. B, Brock, Office Manager of the University Bookstore, is a
Notary Public. Her office is on the balcony of the Bookstore and she
can accommodate all such requests. There is a Bookstore fee of $.25
for this service.

Q: In what major area does Physical Education and Hygiene fall?

A: Since the Department of Aerospace Studies, Physical
Education for Men, and Physical Education for Women are not listed
Within any of the existing Faculties, the course taught within these
departments are to be construed as available for general university
credit, but cannot be used for meeting the distribution requirement.

Q: On Friday, September 12th, at about 9 a.m.. Bus No. 182 left
the Diefendorf Annex only about one-third full while there were about
two busloads of students left at the bus stop. Where was this bus
going?
A: The University Bussing Office informed us that Bus No. 182 is
assigned to the Elmwood Office-Bell Facility Route. This route
replaces the station wagon shuttle service to the University offices on
Elmwood and services students attending classes at the Bell Facility.
This week, an additional route will be added when students begin
attending classes at the Meyer Hospital Annex. Signs denoting the
routes are placed in the right front windshield of each bus.
Bus service for the Ridge Lea operation is provided every ten
minutes during the day. and extra buses (not shown on the schedule)
are used at peak periods on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, i.e.,
from 8:55 a.m. to 9:15 a.m., on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, 4
buses depart for Ridge Lea.
A University bussing supervisor, on duty at the Diefendorf Annex,
reported that students were handled well on Friday at peak periods,
and the passenger counts submitted by the bus company verified this
report. Bus service is checked daily, and changes are made, as needed.
These .ranges usually take place during the first two weeks of classes,
as peak periods fluctuate due to student traffic.

Q:

Is there a Directory of

department offices readily available to

students?
A: None, as such. Action Line is always glad to assist such
inquiries, but there is merit in having a directory listing Department
Offices, their
..location, and phone number posted in
conspicuous student areas. Wfe-will discuss this with the appropriate
offices Jo see if such a directory cap be prepared.

Q: Where do I get permission to park in the special parking spaces
allotted for handicapped students?
A: Apply in person at the University Security Office, 196
Winspear Ave. and you will be issued a “Disability Parking Permit.”
is the true Off-Campus Housing situation?
A: In the last issue of The Spectrum a detailed picture whs given
of the efforts of the University Off-campus Housing Office. To
summarize, the Off-campus Housing Office has, at the present time,
approximately SO apartments and houses, and 150 rooms in private

Q: What

homes available for immediate occupancy.
However, factors such as distance from the University and high
rental rates, and the reluctance of students to live in private rooms all
serve to limit the choices open to students looking for housing. During
the summer months the Off-campus Housing Office, through an
extensive recruitment and publicity campaign, was able to find a

�Preservatives refining take

A look at the remarkable

shows a steady rise in coronary

product a pretty, white;‘pure’ for
the purity-minded housewife.
Without the wheat germ and bran,
which tend to spoil quickly, the
only'part remaining is the starchy
middle, which is rendered
deficient in B vitamins as well as a
natural protective shell. This then
necessitates the addition of
preservatives to keep the product
from spoiling further.
This condition is magnified by
the fact that sugar steals Vitamin
B from all parts of the body in
order to be metabolized. The B
complex is essential for mental
and nervous health, and a shortage
causes enormous fluctuation in
the bloodstream which supplies
the brain, which ultimately
manifests itself in subtle
derangement of the mental
faculties, as well as paving the way
for cancer.

Supermarket suicide
Playing “Supermarket Suicide”
is a big business. Five minutes at
the checkout counter of any
supermarket gives ample evidence
of the American attitude towards
foods. They like them sweet or
salty, easy to prepare and filling;
they are stuffing themselves with
more of the empty calories that
ignore nutrition and bring on
disease.

with disadvantages that tend to
neutralize each other. Directing

be coaches serving their first year
at the top slot. Naturally they will
lack some of the experience and
know-how that can only be
acquired with time.
Secondly, each squad must
recover from the jolt of losing the
season’s opener.
Lastly, both teams will know
little about each other’s style of
play since this is the first meeting
between the two squads. They
will have only the scouting reports
on the season opener to inform
them of the opposition’s strengths
and weaknesses.
It is mandatory for the Bulls to
accomplish two things in order to

This year, the budget for

Dr. Cappiello expects
something less than $250,000
from the undergraduate student

“We’re going to have to arrange
a fee schedule for recreation and
intramurals for the graduate
students and faculty who wish to
use the facilities,” he said. “It’s

Students object
As a reaction to these
rules, a statement was issued
by the student body condemning and expressing
“total disgust with the new
Rules of Student Conduct regarding drug violations on
the campus.”
Students objected to the
manner in which the rules
were formulated, charging
that the council “cannot legislate in any legitimate way.”
Consisting of “Long Island
businessmen who lack sufficient knowledge of student
needs and life styles,” the
council has “arbitrarily legislated with little regard for
the wishes of the community
which will feel the effects of
their actions.” Each council
member is appointed by the
Governor for a six-year term.
The students contend that
“the University should play
no role in enforcing the drug
laws of the state or the
nation and that “academic
sanctions should not be imposed for drug activity that
will be tried in a court of
law.”

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The latest solution to the recurrent housing shortage
is ‘Tent City located near Baird Hall.
’

UB’s tent community: An
appeal for adequate housing

—

Hsiang

Tent City
Some students have solved their own housing
problems by erecting tents in back of Baird Hall. Mr.
James Ryan, the director of Off-campus Housing,
when asked about “tent city” said: “Of the seven
tents which are there, two are used for storage.” The
population of the “city” is 11. Mr. Ryan said that
the tents were erected due to the bus strike. “Tent
dwellers” had no way to get to campus from their
apartments, which are too far from campus. Others
are waiting for available living facilities.
Mr. Ryan noted that last September the
University was fated with similar though not as
critical shortage of on and off-campus housing.
There were 6500 students who were non-local
residents and the office received 5800 requests for
housing assistance. This year the problem is
magnified by the University’s growing enrollment.

Increase in demand

He pointed out that while undergraduate
enrollment is about the same, there have been sizable
increases in the number of graduate students, foreign
students and faculty and staff. These increases are
complicated by the fact that there are 700 transfer
students who have to find housing as well as an ever
growing number of requests from local students who
desire an off-campus location other than home.
The final glowing embers extinguish themselves
in a sea of chalky ashes. The grey stone fireplace is
no longer the center of attraction. Students, huddled
in blankets, lie on their backs and talk to the few
stars that peek through the cold night canvas sky.
The students are members of the tent
community which planted itself in back of Baird
Hall almost two weeks ago. At that time they were
looking for decent housing within a reasonable
distance of the school. Most of them still are.
This temporary housing project consists of six
tents, most of which were loaned to the students by
sympathetic outsiders. The current population is ten,

High rents,

though the number often doubles with transient
residents.
The students are grateful for the help they
receive from the University’s Housing Office. This
consists mainly of “moral support” in the form of
frequent visits and raps.
According to an informal spokesmen for the
members of the tent community. Housing officials
were aware of the imminent housing crisis long
before September. Projected figures indicated that
the Buffalo community would not be able to
assimilate the increasing stream of new students.
The campers do not blame any one person, or
even the University as a whole, for their plight. They
have been informed of several emergency appeals to
the State for immediate aid, all of which failed due
to non-existent funds.
Police harrassment has not been much of a
problem. But the group is tired of being told to
extinguish their campfire. Campus police informed
them that they are acting in violation of a city
ordinance prohibiting open fires without a permit.
The students claim that city ordinances do not apply
to the University grounds, which are state-owned
and operated.
The tent-dwellers have had their gripes, but they
are more than offset by many good times. The tents
have become a center of attraction and a favorite
night spot for many. On Saturday they were
entertained by a rock group which was performing
for the University picnic.
The tent community will continue its vigil under
the stars until they find adequate housing. They plan
on enjoying themselves as much as they can
always aware that the winter comes early to Buffalo.
The off-campus housing problem is
compounded by an already critical housing shortage
for the residents of Buffalo. Mr. Ryan says: ‘The
city is experiencing an unprecedented .7% vacancy
ratio which is far below the national average of 3%
for a city of this size.”

difficulties

Off- Campus housing problem
reaches critical proportions

Off-campus housing this year again is one of the
major problems facing the State University of
Buffalo. There are approximately 10,700
undergraduates registered for this semester, and of

these, 2700 live in the dorms.
The Off-campus Housing office has solved the
problem of housing for many students. Throughout
August and September, 2200 persons came to the

Page three

Housing office in Goodyear Hall. The Housing office
was able to accomodate 80% of those students. Of
the remaining 20% some probably found housing but
never bothered notifying the office. Others are

refusing the 150 rooms and 50 apartments and
houses listed in the off-campus housing guide due to
their distance from the school and the high rent
landlords are asking.

Roman Catholic priest and British officer discuss

The statement said that an NDC delegation met with Board of Election officials
Friday morning and presented a list of three demands.
They were; the appointment of Spanish speaking poll watchers, Spanish speaking
registrars, and the permission to fill out the affidavit of sixth-grade education outside the
polling places.
The statement concluded that by denying these requests the Board of Elections has
demonstrated that it is not interested in registering members of minority groups.
In spite of this, the NDC plans to hold its own registration campaign, Mr. Resnikoff
stated, and has invited several nationally known political figures to Buffalo to help.

Monday morning and afternoon approximately 400 students
stood waiting in front of Diefendorf Annex
waiting to take the
Ridge Lea bus. And because of overcrowded conditions and a new
ruling which does not permit standing on the vehicles, some of them
reported waiting from between one and two hours. Even the 9 a.m. ‘E’
train out of Jamaica offers a better average than that.

Cheer up, kids. Amherst is only ten or so yearsiaway. Meanwhile
we can all take the morning tour of the parking lots each day and

late. And hope that the winter does not come too early
for those lucky souls housed in tents behind Baird.

An extra cashier in the Rathskeller and main floor cafeterias might
ease some of the crowding there. And the Rathskeller, particularly,
seems to be extremely short-staffed behind the counters. Extra buses
should be scheduled for the Ridge Lea and Allenhurst routes,
especially if the “no standing” rule is to remain in effect. Students
living at Allenhurst are doubly inconvenienced
by the teeming
conditions on campus during the day and by unrealistic bus times to
and from their off-campus living quartets at night. Last year extra
buses were also a necessity for the Allenhurst students, but these buses
were paid for by student fees. Obviously if added transportation
proves necessary
as ik already has
then it is up to the University
and not the already overburdened students to pay for it.

The housing situation off-campus, we are told, is critical. The
University maintains numerous buildings off campus
many within
easy access of tjiis campus. We wonder if perhaps some of these might
be converted into dormitories at night
even on a temporary basis.
The crush this year comes not so much from undergraduates
their
population has been reduced slightly
but from the increased
graduate admissions and faculty appointments. Though a homeless
graduate student is perhaps not as pathetic? a picture as a dorm-less
freshman, still every effort should be made by the University to find
places for even these older, more independent members of the
academic community.

chairman states position

To the editor.
Please permit me to make some clarifications
corrections, from the standpoint of the
Department of Philosophy, of a story inTTie
Spectrum of September 12.
At issue are a new PhD program now starting,
including five basic courses and a student petition
that this program be “immediately rescinded.”
Until this year, all PhD candidates in philosophy
were required to pass a ret of five preliminary
examinations in the main areas of philosophy before
working officially on their dissertation. These exams
were so comprehensive and sometimes so difficult
that good students commonly took three or more
years to prepare for and complete them. Our
Student-Faculty Liaison Committee presented the
outlines of a plan for radical reform of the graduate
program, which met with approval from the graduate
students. The faculty debated the merits of this and
other proposals in committees and meetings
throughout the 1968-69 year. It accepted in
principle the Liaison Committee’s proposal for
advisement of each student by his individual 3
man committee. This is to be put into effect this
year for most graduate students. The faculty
recognized the need for reform of the preliminary
exam system, but differed as to the best alternative.
We finally adopted a Phd program, including five
basic courses to be taken in the first year. Passage of
the final exams, less comprehensive than the old
preliminaries,
complete the standard
would
requirements and subsequent work of each student
would be individualized, under guidance of his own
advisory committee.
Completion of the PhD should normally take
four years, much less than at present. Some students
would not want to take all the basic courses in their
first year and could take two years to get an MA and
complete the standard requirements en route to a
PhD.
To ease transition to the new program, students
already here are offered a wide range of alternatives.
The Executive Committee is proposing that
incoming students be granted two of the options
available to old students: that of taking the exam in
a basic course without taking the course; and, for
this year’s students, that of taking the old
preliminary exams, allowing three years for
and

—

The dichotomy between faculty and student parking grows more
frustrating by the year. While spots often remain empty in the faculty
lots, students are forced to stow their cars in University Plaza and the
Ridge Lea campus or hike up from the far reaches of Bailey Avenue
behind Clement Hall. If it is impossible to open up all parking areas to
everybody during the day rush hours, then surely these faculty lots can
be “liberated” at least for the off times.
Granted the class that should have seen Amherst
and a lot of
classes after them
are going to be inconvenienced this year. But a
little planning and accomodation now can go a long way towards
making a bad situation just a little more bearable.

Ten years, though, is a rather long time to put off action waiting
for the miracle of Amherst, and we believe that there are some
constructive things which might be done in the meantime.

Wednesday, September 17,1969

The incoming student does nothave to take the
basic courses his first year, so he would have no
greater freedom
if the new program were
"immediately rescinded” as the petition urges. In
fact, he would have less. It seems to me it would be
irresponsible
to cancel
new
program
this
immediately, throwing the students who have
embarked upon it into complete confusion, and
leaving most
of them without
satisfactory
alternatives. The sensible thing would be to continue
it at present, while considering what modifications
or alternatives can be agreed upon.

One basic difficulty is that most of the faculty is
convinced that some standard requirements
whether exams or course
are necessary to
guarantee competence and breadth and'maintain the
high reputation of our doctorate, in the interests of
our PhD’s. The Graduate Philosophy Association,
however, is apparently opposed to any uniform
standard requirement. Another difficulty is the
question of who makes the decisions.
The G.P.A. petition 6ears the names of a
majority of graduate students. But Department
By-laws require approval of a majority of the faculty
for any changes in basic policy. The faculty is
meeting Tuesday, Sept. 16 to consider the problems
of the graduate program.
At a meeting called by the department to
explain the new program to new students, the G.P.A.
president was given the floor to express his
opposition. The attempt to get the new courses
boycotted included picketing the two which met on
Thursday. If this campaign “cut down enrollment by
over 50%” (which I doubt), it unwittingly did a
favor to the students taking the courses. One which I
am teaching had an attendance of 18 on Thursday,
including some “old” students taking the course as a
way of completing their requirements. We have not
expected or wanted a larger enrollment. Many
students are following the example (not the advice)
of the G.P.A. president, who argued against the old
prelims last year and completed his own.
Let me point out that Dr. George Hourani is not
chairman of the department, but was chairman the

Airline youth fares will
WASHINGTON (CPS)
continue, but not at the current half-price discount.
The five-man Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) decided
here this month that while the fares, which enable persons
12-22 to fly standby at low cost, were fair in principle,
airlines should be allowed to raise them to 60 per cent of
tflfe regular coach fare.
The reason: steep wage settlements, more expensive
fuels, and higher landing fees have lowered airline profits
—

excessively, according to the CAB, and price increases in

both regular and promotional discounts are necessary to
increase revenue. The major air carriers offering special

United, Eastern, and Western
advantage of the CAB ruling and raise their prices. The
new rates will take effect Oct. 1.
A CAB spokesman said further hearings will be held
on the “economics" of the discount rate as soon as a court
—

case brought by Trailways Bus Systems against the CAB is
settled. Trailways contends it is discriminatory for there to

be any discount for youth at all, since adults must pay full
fare.

The youth fare issue was forced to a head last January
when several bus companies, all of which had lost business
to the airlines because of the half-fares. Tiled suit to make
the CAB listen to their arguments that the discounts were
illegal.
The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans,
agreeing with some of the arguments, ordered the CAB to
investigate, and CAB examiner Arthur S. Present
subsequently found the fares to be “unjustly
discriminatory” and in violation of the Federal Aviation
Act of 1958.
Present recommended the fares be abolished, but the
CAB delayed action when protest was registered by the
National Student Ass’n, the Campus Americans for
Democratic Action, the National Student Marketing
Corporation, and many students and parents who deluged
CAB offices with letters.
There were three measures introduced in congress in
support of the low-cost youth fares.
In its recent decision, the CAB concluded, contrary to
Present’s earlier findings, that the fares were not
discriminatory, but benefitted all travellers. By
engendering development of a new market they “have
contributed sizably to making modem equipment and

convenient schedules more broadly available,” the CAB

said.

“It is dear that the youth standby fares have
generated a significant amount of new traffic,'’ it said.
“The 12-22 years age groups are more responsive to price
than is the market as a whole. Moreover, in addition to the
short-run generative effect by encouraging persons to
travel by air at an early age the fares will inculcate
habits . . . which will be reflected in a ready acceptance of
air travel throughout their adult lives."

The arest culminates six months of political maneuvering

The Michigan Daily, student newspaper at the University
of Michigan, failed to win the support of the 85-member
staff for reprinting the argus picture in the daily. The
senior editors, by an earlier vote of 7-3 had voted to
publish the picture but took the decision to the entire staff
where it lost 44-25. The earlier decision was reconsidered
after county prosecutor William Delhey announced he
would “probably prosecute The Daily" if the picture was
reprinted. Legal attorneys at the university said they
feared a libel suit and/or prosecution of the university.

�massaging the media
by George Tales. Jr.

The film is Peter Bogdanovich’s Targets. The
setting is an antiseptically-fumished, luxury hotel
room where Boris Karloff, head resting in hand,
watches himself on the late show. His companion in
this sceiie is a hack director of low-budget horror
Tilms, who, in a world which no longer needs fantasy
its appetite for horror, is as obsolete and
pathetically amusing as Karloff is. As the televised
movie ends, the young director glances over at
Karloff and remarkss: “The trouble is, all the good
pictures have already been made.”
Someone once defined the movie-going process
and the source of its persistent appeal to the
mass-mind in terms of our desire to roll up the real
world on a spool in order to unroll it as a magic
carpet of fantasy.
The American films which have come to be
regarded as “classics,” those which have most
successfully captured the popular imagination at a
given moment in history are, almost without
exception, fantasies. We have our gangster-fantasies,
our musical-fantasies, and our fantasies about the
American West, that mythological “last frontier”
which is always subsiding, but never actually
disappears.

Boring real West

movies is
Like any form of art, the function of

reasonably
not to duplicate life; nor to provide
accurate reproductions of historical events or works
and
of fiction, but to imaginatively transpose
manipulate their subject matter, giving them finally a
style and a meaning entirely independent of their
content.
Sam Peckinpah, for example, who is almost
single-handedly responsible for a recent Western
chastely titled The Wild Bunch, is missing the point
when he tells us that it’s time someone made a film
about the real West. Realism, as Peckinpah so aptly,
if unintentionally demonstrates, is a bore. We leam
virtually nothing about the illiterate killers
comprising the “bunch” other than they are
authentically inarticulate and wild, the latter piece
of information having been cunningly worked into

the title.

Bullets and temperance

As compensation for the fact that no one in the
film talks, except for an occasional “son of a bitch”
and "yellow-bellied bastard” from an irate “bunch”
member, the film’s action sequences are interlarded
with movie editorials, showing off Peckinpah’s fine
gift for heavy-handed symbolism.

For example, immediately following the film’s
celebrated opening massacre, in which the unlucky
membership of a small western town temperance
league is decimated by shotgun-fire as a slow-motion
camera records the bullets punching into the bodies,
a group of restless youngsters sets fire to a nest of
scorpions and titter maliciously as the scorpions'
change color and pop open.

Impressive butchery
The message, incredible as it may seem, is that
violence is always and everywhere with us. Like
everything else connected with the picture, there
seems to be more at stake than there actually is.
Ironically enough, in spite of the director’s
disdainful rejection of the romantic myths which are
the cinematic birthright of the Western, The Wild
Bunch's two most powerful sequences fit very
comfortably within the realm of fantasy.
rmxreferring, of course, to the two prolonged
episodes of wholesale butchery, impressively
photographed by Lucien Ballard, with which the
film opens and closes.
The murders have a surrealistic quality about
them which at times strongly suggests classical ballet
with its beauty of forms in motion and the
intoxicating rhythm of the machine-gun fire.
The movie is successful during these passages
because it creates an illusion demanding an emphatic
response, a response moreover of the imagination
rather than of the intellect, of the “dreamer” locked
up inside us instead of the “rationalist.”

Requiem for cinema
Peter Bogdanovich’s Targets , as 1 mentioned
previously, invites us to a frightening mock-funeral
for the American cinema. It proceeds to demonstrate
that movies no longer imitate life. They don’t have
to. At some unspecified point in time, life became an
imitation of the movies. The fantasy, Bogdanovich
tells us, has moved from the inside to the outside of
the movie screen.

Grotesque San Francisco apartment buildings
against an intensely blue sky, less a sky
perhaps than a painted studio backdrop. The
isometric suburban homes infesting the landscape do
not seem to function as dwelling-places at all, but
simply as supports for the monstrous television
antennas which sprout out of them.
Both The Wild Bunch and Targets, whether
consciously or unconsciously I do not know, place
us in a world totally unsuited for the movie-going
experience
a world in which there is no possibility
or name for innocence, and no capacity for dreams.

'Eveni g with Actors’

New concept
by Christie Jordan

Spectrum Staff Writer

“I wanted the most informal theater in Buffalo
No, the world,” said Red Griffis.
“You’ve got it!” shouted a member of the
audience and loud, perhaps embarrased, laughter

followed.

Thus ended the prologue to An Evening With
Actors, at the Courtyard Theater. The prologue
consisted mainly of Red Griffis reading a piece on
acting by Simone Signoret. When he finished the
reading (which was too fast, causing him to stumble
over words), he said: “Well, you know, she didn’t
say a damned thing about acting!” One couldn’t help
wondering what the point of the long reading was, in
that case.
At this point, the audience was wai

that the second performance was slightly different in

new
An Evening With Actors is an entirely
concept in theater. As with most new concepts, it
needs development, growth, cuts, additions and
corrections. Director Rod Griffis is the first to admit
this.

At this point it is too long, too informal, too
unfinished and too tedious. But like a diamond in
the rough, with a lot of work, a little tender loving
care and most important, an interested audience, the
Courtyard Players could develop their new concept
into an important contribution to modern theater.

�Highly favored football Bulls Theater loses license
humbled by Ball State, 10-7 Manager of Fine
Arts awaits trial
by Dick Horn

Spectrum Staff Writer

The theater will remain open! We are still open!
City of Buffalo harassment will noTclose us!
The posters adorning the street frSiit of the Fine
Arts Theater located at 663 Main St. tell the story.
The particular issue involved is the arrest of the Fine
Art’s manager, Gerald Attenson on the charges of
showing a motion picture without a license. The
theater’s license was lifted on Sept. 8 by order of
Mayor Frank Sedita.
Attenson was first arrested last month on
charges of promoting obscenity. The films then
showing at the Fine Arts were Olga’s Girls and Rio
Nudo. During the past week, Attenson has been
arrested four more times, thus bringing the number
of his arrests to five. He is awaiting trial which is set
for Sept. 19.

Muncie, Ind., Sept. 13:
The shuffle of passing feet and an occasional
terse whisper were the only sounds that broke the
mumbling silence at pool side of the Holiday Inn in
Muncie, Ind., where the weary Bulls awaited the
expected “given” of any loss
a delayed post-game
-

meal.

Coach Bob Denting and staff sprawled in the
quietly reviewing the mistakes that made
Deming's September 13th birthday and head
coaching debut an unhappy experience. Co-captain
Paul Lang dangled his aching feet in the water and
contemplated his “impossible” catch that almost
salvaged the game. Sophomore linebacker Larry
Madden sat in a low-backed lounge chair mentally
replaying the joy and sorrow that went into his first
varsity competition.
grass

Band Day blues
The touted and heavily favored Buffalo Bulls
had fallen before the sword of twenty-two
determined Ball State matadors, 10-7.
Place kicker Bob Greenlee provided the margin
of victory as he split the uprights from 41 yards with
2:19 remaining in the final period.
Inconsistency in the running attack proved to be
the Bulls’ downfall as they were able to muster only
81 not rushing yards.
“Band Day 1969” proved to be the most
exciting feature of the first half as the Deming-Mick
Murtha play-calling duo played it close to the vest
and couldn’t conquer the Cardinal defensive front
wall. The rugged Bull defensive eleven, led by
Madden, Mike Luzny and Tom Vigneau, returned
the compliment however, resulting in a scoreless first
half.
Buffalo opened up their game plan considerably
and drew the game’s first blood midway in the third
quarter. Quarterback Murtha engineered the
time-consuming 75-yard march and went the final
three yards himself on the run-pass option. The big
play of the series was a broken field jaunt of 11
yards, also by Murtha.
A 23-yard return of a Paul Jack punt by
Cardinal Jerry Burns in the fourth quarter set the
stage for the Bull State tally. The Cardinals, aided by
a roughing the passer penalty, traveled 36 yards in
eight tries with a Willard Rice to Don Burchfield pass
of 12 yards being the big gainer. Workhorse Dave
Means dove the final yard.
The war in the trenches continued for the better
part of the period until another Jack punt to the
open side of the field resulted in a 15-yard return
and the Cardinals’ camping at the Bull 45. A first
down and three more plays brought in the six foot
one inch 240 pound Greenlee to supply the home
team heroics.

Mayor is sued

forces

N

Valiant comeback
The Bulls took Jack Morse’s rolling kick on the
Bail State 20 with 1 :SS remaining and began a
valiant comeback. Murtha hit five passes in the drive,
going to sophomore split end Bruce Fraser twice on
18 and 17-yard sideline cuts. With 3S seconds
remaining he went to tight end Lang. The redhead
from Ithaca, running between two Cardinal
defenders, suddenly reached up amidst the waving
arms to pull in an unbelievable catch at the one.
Slow placement of the ball by the officials cost
the Bulls approximately ten seconds and faced with
no more time outs, Murtha threw the ball away to
stop the clock at seven. However, intentional
grounding was called and Buffalo was penalized back
to the nine
an eight-yard penalty. The gun went
off as the senior veteran attempted to his Scott
Herlan in the end zone.
A half hour later, weak laughter began. But still,
no one complained about the lost ten seconds. No
one complained about the intentional grounding call.
No one complained about the eight-yard penalty.
Everyone knew they should not have been in the
situation of having to play catch-up in the first place.
Everyone knew they should have won.

The theater’s owner, John E. O’Donnell of New
York, announced last week his intention of suing
Mayor Sedita and the City of Buffalo for one million
dollars on grounds of “harassment and persecution.”
According to O’Donnell, Attenson’s arrest last
month was totally unfounded, since the same version
of Olga’s Girls had played without any legal trouble
at Buffalo’s Palace Theater in 1964 and at Buffalo’s
Allendale Theater in 1967.
O’Donnell alledged that City Judge Theodore S.
Kasler acted out of his capacity as judge when, he
viewed the two films last month with a
representative of the Salacious Literature squad of
the Buffalo police department. ‘The judge,”
according to O’Donnell, “is setting himself up as
both a judge and prosecutor.” Mayor Sedita, at a
hearing, charged that the admission to the Fine Arts
Theater was too high. The price of admission is
$3.00.

,

In his determination, Sedita has drawn heavily
from the Roth vs. U.S. decision in the Supreme
Court. Sedita apparently believes that the films at
the Fine Arts measure up to the three standards of
obscenity set up in the Roth vs. U.S. case.
When asked if he plans to keep the Fine Arts
Theater open, O’Donnell quickly replied:
. . .they’ll have to board it up.”

He is the third Bull to go via

McLuhan interviewed:
Where's the mess -age?
reprinted

from the Manchester Guardian

Professor H. Marshall McLuhan
Canadian,
electronic prophet, and coiner of “The Medium is
the Message” and other apt phrases was in London
last week playing hard to get, and then when he was
finally got at, talking about striptease girls and
Japanese flower arrangements, and letting it slip that
he reads the Greek New Testament every day.
McLuhan was here to collect the president’s
medal from the Institute of Public Relations. The
cybernetics people thought he was staying at
Imperial College with the rest of the conference
delegates, his London publishers had no idea where
he was except that they thought Imperial College
wouldn’t be good enough, and he eventually turned
up in a suite at the Royal Garden Hotel where he
was registered under the name of Hutchinson, and
instructions had been left to put no calls through to
him.
In suite 333, a McLuhan aide called
Booth-Clibbom said confidingly that what the
professor really needed was a sympathetic interview.
The professor entered, handed me a pack of playing
cards with McLuhan mottoes on the backs, and
immediately launched into a rapid lecture.
There could be no black people without white
people because otherwise the black people would
just be people. White was all colors and black was no
color. Without publicity there could be no privacy.
Didn’t I know Robinson Crusoe had no privacy, only
solitude? He mentioned something Wordsworth had
said, which I couldn't catch, and went on to remark
apropos of this that a stripteaser puts on her
audience by taking off her clothes. “Yes, but,...” I
said.
There was no stopping him. He was off again,
going on about newspapers creating news. Well, I
said. Let’s take that as an example and . . .No, he
said, too dangerous. Did I know bad news was
essential because it called forth survivor emotion in
the reader, and survivor emotion was great for heavy
street sales?
He said you needed a lot of hellfire before you
could reach Salvation, quoted a bit of French
and said everyone
“Mon semblable, mon frere”
put on an act. And what was his act? “I’m a prober,”
he said. “I put out phrases. They sting. You say
ouch." 1 had hardly been able to get an ouch in

I showed him a book called The Medium is the
Message published last year in England under his
name and that of Quentin Fior. He said he had not
written it, that the bits of text had been taken from
his writings, but that he had not chosen or even seen
the many pictures or known what picture was
illustrating what apothegm.
After a mention of multi-sensuous virtuosity,
and a glance at a poem his daughter had written

about violence, and another mention of the
Kingdom of Heaven, I said I did not think we were
talking the same language. Please could we take just
one phrase, “The Medium is the Message,” and look
at it. Please, what was the meaning?
Oh, a meaning I wanted, he said: now that was
an opinion. Besides it ought to be “The Medium is
the Mess-Age,” with a hyphen. But, 1 said, it was
never printed like that. But what did it mean? He
replied that he was not sittings he was moving. Did
this mean his meaning was changing all the time? It
did.
I got up to leave. He mentioned a thing called a
Swifty. He quoted one. “1 have a few flowers in my
garden, said the man lackadaisically.” I asked why it
was called a Swifty and he did not know. You know,
he said kindly, as 1 was opening the door, 1 thought I
had a stake in literacy, didn’t I? 1 nodded perhaps.
Well, my stake in literacy was nothing compared to
his as a professor of literature. I ought to try to
widen my understanding.
I said thank you. He called after me, “We are
fellow literates.” 1 hope not.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Conflict and change in University community
College A triumphs
For now. College A will remain in the
store front, and everyone who wanted to
enroll in the course for college credit will
be accepted.

participants in-.College A have recently
surmounted several administrative moves
that seemed to be threatening their
autonomy.
When the students returned to the
college this fall, they were told that Claude
E. Welch, Dean of University College, was
“requesting”- them to enroll no more than
250 students in their course “Conflict and
Change in the Local Community.” In
addition, all students would now have to
accept an S/U grade and would be forced
to report to a regular faculty member for
one “contact hour” per week. These
requests clearly violated the right of the
College to determine its number of courses,
enrollment and grading procedures.

would have to move out of its storefront

Denied credit
When students came to register for the
College A course
a course that
encourages independent study projects in
the Buffalo community
over 2000
students were told that they would not be
able to receive college credit for the course.
Having received only 250 legitimate
class cards for the course, College A was
forced to distribute them between the four
classes, turning down many Seniors and
Juniors as well as underclassmen.
Many students began writing letters to
various administrators, several meetings
were held, and finally it looked as though
the administration would reconsider its
requests.
The result of the joint efforts of Dr.
Snell and his students was that Warren
Bennis, Vice President for Academic
Development, announced Thursday that
“no decisions about space or alternation of
procedures of the experiment be made
without consultation” with the affiliates of
College A.

The rally had begun in the

to enforce their demands, the
group followed the urgings of Dan
Bentivogli who said they should
confront Dr. Regan at his office in

Monday. September 15. 1969

Boston, Minneapolis and Buffalo are three cities
with a number of things in common.
All three industrial cities are approximately the
same size and have traditionally been one-party
cities. And ethnic groups have traditionally played a
predominant role in the politics of the three.
Political observers around the country will be
watching the mayoral election in Buffalo this
November to determine if the phenomenon which
began in Boston two years ago and resurfaced in
Minneapolis earlier this year, is going to be a
nationwide trend - a trend toward reaction.
The pattern is familiar. A candidate begins

Mr. Stenvig campaigned on a single issue: “Take
the handcuffs off the police,” and suggested that
outgoing Mayor Arthur Naftalin had not been tough
enough with blacks. He won by a whopping two to
one margin. Furthermore, gn analysis of the voting
trends showed that he polled best in white
working-class neighborhoods with below average

incomes.

Slominski like Hicks

The eyes of many political analysts will be
turned toward Buffalo this November in an attempt
to discover if the swing to the right is going to
become a nationwide trend in large industrial cities.

public office, won the mayoral primary. Primaries in

1970 legislature and probably
changed.

leaders were all for a law

books. But. now they are having

City

York
Democratic hopefuls brought the
-

controversy into the open. Mario
Procaccino, the winner, became
the party’s candidate with less
than half of the votes cast.
“There should have been a
run-off between the two top
candidates and I am sure Mr.
Procaccino would not be carrying
the Democratic banner in the race
today if there had been one,"
Howard Samuels, who would like
to run for governor next year,
said; “There should have been a
run-off between Robert F. Wagner
and Procaccino.”
Samuels has threatened a
primary fight for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination next

year if the party’s state committee
turns him down. In the meantime
he said he would like to see some
changes made in the primary law,
especially a provision for a
run-off.

would be possible for a man to
receive less than 15 per cent of
the votes and become the party’s

Democratic State Chairman
John J. Burns said there has been
a great deal of talk among
politicians about changes, but
nothing definite. Personally, he
added, he would like to see a
run-off provision.
“But, if there are any changes
they will have to come from the
Republican members
of the
Legislature," Burns said. “If they
do come up. 1 will then discuss

One objection to a run-off
raised by Burns is pretty general
and that involves costs. The

pointed
out
that
political campaigns are expensive
and two of them might be out of
reach for many good men.
“Politics
becoming
is
a
millionaire’s game,” Burns said,
“Campaign donations do not
come in the way they used to.”
Charles Lanigan, GOP state
chairman, said no party position
has been taken on revising the
primary law and he did not
anticipate action.

“You know, there are so many
bills that come in,” he explained;
“Maybe something will come in
that our party is interested in . . .
but I know nothing about it at
this stage.” Gov. Rockefeller
supported the statewide primary
law, and officially approved it in
1967 to become effective in 1968.
Only one election
for U.S.
senators has come under the
statewide provisions since.

No, College A is not a panacea for what is wrong with

doing if those Universities are to survive. To kill College A

To the editor
I feel I must respond to your non-review of the
Buffalo Philharmonic Concert of Sept. 9. A listing of
the pieces played followed by dictionary definitions
of their musical form constitutes neither good

reporting nor plausible reviewing.

The Philharmonic has a deservedly high
reputation for its musicianship under the direction
of Lukas Foss, but under the direction of associate
conductor, Melvin Strauss, their efforts can only be
called pathetic. Perhaps it was because the lack of
funds prevented needed rehearsals, or perhaps
because the musicians dislike pop concerts, but most
probably because of the unbelievably amateurish
conducting of Mr. Strauss.

I believe that the Philharmonic, with adequate
rehearsal, is a very fine group, and I certainly believe
it needs student support, as well as support from
many other segments of the community. I do not
believe, however, that this support can be expected
by presenting such lackadaisical playing and

orchestra was obviously faking music too difficult
for them to sight-read. The absence of a complete
trumpet section, coupled with numerous mistakes

�An open letter to the Lady in Yd\ow
by Eric Sleese

Spectrum Staff Writer

Monday, the 8th of September, 1969. The buses
and nobody seems to be picking up
large hairy freaks so 1 decide to walk home. It is not
a casual decision. I have to walk from the Main St.
campus to the back of the Buffalo State campus near
Forest and Grant.
are

on strike

It is a long walk and very hard on the feet if you
do it all the way on concrete. Depew cuts from Main
down across Parkside, and you can follow Parkside
into Delaware Park and be on grasS most of the way.
Also on Depew you can cheat over onto the lawns
and rest your feet that way the human foot not

really being designed for several hours of pounding
on concrete.

I am walking down Depew, fairly fast. I see no

sense in dawdling. I don’t walk that fast and you can
still note trees and flowers at my normal speed when
using my feet for transportation. It is a quite street,

almost always, and it being not long after suppertime
dinnertime if you prefer about 7:15 p.m., it is
even more quiet and the sun is into the clouds on the
horizon, promising a couple more hours of light, but
testing the bed already.
-

Large black dog
At one house on Depew, a large black dog takes
umbrage at my passage. No, at my approach,
confronting me in front of a neighbor’s hedge before
1 have reached the driveway of the house. He looks
retrievrish and reasonably capable of doing damage.

I stop and glare at him and heft my briefcase to
where it will drop nicely on his head if he
goes for my leg. He continues barking, thinking the
situation over, and decides he has something in his
throat and starts hacking as I finish telling him to get
the hell back where he came from and start away,
keeping a somewhat cautious eye over my shoulder.
a position

When almost past the house, I am suddenly
yelled at. A woman in a yellow dress is standing
inside the screen door of the Depew residence. She

yells something to the effect that if 1 would get my
hair cut I wouldn’t have so much trouble. She shuts
the main door. It has been a day full of minor
frustrations and the effects of Midnight Cowboy
seen later Sunday afternoon linger too. This is
simply and absolutely too much.
■

,

I stomp back on the sidewalk and down the
front walk to the front door. 1 lean on the bell
nothing. I lean again. Still nothing. I take out ray
book and write down the address and turn away.
-

... although I will note that you will stop for a nice
clean cut young gentleman almost deliberately to
spite anyone who wears part of their beliefs on their
face and down the back of their heck.

If 1 have to buy one of the short wigs an
enterprising young man in San Francisco is making
to cover up long hair in order to get through
graduate school I will do it, though I will consider it
ridiculous. 1 will do whatever I have to to live with
my choice, but 1 won’t impinge that choice on
anyone else.

What’s going on?
Rover is back, barking away, from a somewhat
more cautious distance however, and keeping an eye
on the briefcase. He no doubt thinks he will get
hydrophobia if he bites me. In rapid order I consider
kicking him, dropping the briefcase on him. calling
the police on him.
But I don’t. Rover is doing what he thinks his
job is, barking at people who might be going to cause
his

people trouble. At least he has decided

to let

somebody else deal with this particular situation

-

he looks a little gray around the muzzle and a little
overweight and probably his teeth aren’t what they
used to be.

No, my bitch isn’t with Rover. It is with the
lady in yellow. What is going on Lady in Yellow?
Was your husband late and dinner getting cold and
you needed somebody to yell at.
Arc you basically a nice person who was a little
ashamed of herself and didn’t want to admit it so
you didn’t answer the door?
Or is it deeper? Are you scared of me? You,
with your great big house and your big black dog
and all your things that need protecting. Are you
scared of me because I am walking.
Because I don’t have a car and I might take
yours? The sidewalks are there for walking on lady
and I will walk on the damned things.
He’ll walk
And I’ll wear my hair as long as I bloody well
can grow it, and take the consequences for it. If it
means walking because you and your like believe the
AAA and its propaganda about hitchhikers I’ll do it

You apparently would. Perhaps your husband is
a barber and 1 menace his existence. I doubt it. So I
would guess you’re scared. I don’t understand your
fear, lady it leaves me baffled ... and frightened.
-

All I want is to be left alone, to fumble my way
along, to try and learn how to be the best human
being 1 can. I don’t want your house. Nice houses are
nice, but they hold you
and anyway it is too big
for me and I don’t have anyone to put in it. Maybe
someday.
-

And begging your pardon lady, I don’t want
you. Any female 1 choose to cohabit with isn’t going
to be someone that can yell at someone like that, in
general. Apd if done in a fit of anger she damn well
better be someone who can say I’m sorry and fast
after she does it.
—

—

Trying to be human
Your dog is going to die, lady, you are going to
die, and 1 am going to die. Right now I suspect that
your dog is the most honorable individual among the
three of us. He does his job as he sees it, which is a
pretty sorry job, but we can’t expect him to know
any better.

I can expect you to. 1 know that there are large
gaps between where I am and where I want to be as a
human being, lady, but damn it I’m still trying.
And I promise you this: I’ll put a copy of this
away, and if I ever find myself yelling at some punk
because he has a brush cut or whatever. I’ll rewrite
it. But right now, lady, I have to say this. I am still
trying to be human, I think that you quit.

Nature’s

own freaks
They accept all the crap they gel from the world
and throw it back in your face. Their music reflects a
wild charge up and down hills, crashing through the

underbrush, bringing all the horrors of fire, earth, air
and water, and unleashing all that is inside them in a
flood that sweeps over the listener-participant.
In an exhausting series of crescendos and
decrescendos, sudden leaps into darkness and flights
of fantasy create the total effect, the living process
that they arc trying to show. It takes you on a crazy,
freaky trip right in your own backyard; a
culmination of life’s experience in a matter of
minutes.

Alice Cooper: Mike Bruce (rhythm), Denis
Dunaway (bass), Alice (vocals, harp and lead
guitarist). That’s pretty much the roster of talent,
except for their light man, who plays one of the
most impbrtant parts in creating the atmosphere.

Experience Alice
The last time they were in the Fillmore Room,
they really tore the place up. The audience was
great, but pitifully small While the acoustics were
super-poor and the words unintelligible. Alice
Cooper is an experience that should not be
neglected.
To gel a belter vision of all they are saying,
there is an album pul out by Bizarre Prod entitled
Pretties For You and it's a good example of Alice.
The thing most appealing about Alice Cooptr is
the idea that this group never ceases to change, as
their- environment never ceases to change. At one
trine they were doing blues, but they decided that
wasn't what they really were.
Their songs are always being rebuilt to suit the
particular show. Everything that comes in contact
with them while they are performing has an effect
on the outcome of the show.
Be there, if you feel good It'll make you feel
even better. It might even clean up your sinuses.
Ken Murphy

Jean Anouihl.

The plays are reportedly
different from anything he has
done in the past, and are
entertaining and wildly comic.
Perhaps Anouihl
has not
changed as much as may be
thought. Perhaps he has found a

slightly different method of
massaging the absurd. But let’s
wait and see the things first.
Episode in the Life of an
Author relates comically the
subtle tortures of the artist. It is
Anouilh’s testament of how the
artist in pursuit of creativity may
be plagued by a menacing society.

himself for the impact of the sea

words of Bob Dylan:", . .there’s

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

�Lane’s petition

faces challenge
Mrs. Elnora Turner, secretary to Councilman-at-Large
L, Mitchell, has filed a general objection to the
independent mayoral nominating petitions of Ambrose 1.
Lane. Mrs. Turner has until six days after her Monday
objection to file specific objections to the petitions.
The reason for the objection was not given, but it is

candidate. The other set contained his name and the

Ambrose Lane calls for
confrontation over issues
“What my opponents want/least of all is to meet
me in a debate where they ha/e to deal with specific
issues.”
[
The man speaking was Ambrose I. Lane, 34,
former executive director of ihe Community Action
Organization, and a recently announced independent
candidate for the office of mayW.
Ambrose Lane is the antithesis of the traditional
Buffalo mayoral candidate. He is young, he is black,
and he is not affiliated with either major party. Mr.
Lane is attempting to get himself and his
newly-formed Unity Party on the ballot in
November by means of a petition campaign.
“I think our chances of getting the 1500
required signatures are excellent,” he told The
Spectrum. “But of course, whether or not we will be
on the ballot on Election Day depends on the type
of harassment we encounter from Democratic Party
headquarters. We fully expect that our petitions will
be challenged in court
”

Denies charges
Mr. Lane took exception to charges that his
entrance into the race will split the liberal vote and
insure the election of Republican candidate Mrs.
Alfreda W. Slominski
“That’s part of a recognized campaign of fear
and hysteria that’s being carried out, principally by
the Buffalo Evening News and the Sedita camp. The
answer is that it’s a falsehood. They know it is, and
it’s our job to let the people know it.”
Mr. Lane also denied charges by Buffalo
Councilman Charles H. Black that he had violated
the Hatch Act by using employees of CAO, which
receives federal funds, for partisan political activities
“The Board of Directors of CAO, the Common
Council, the County Legislature, and the Civil
Service Commission have all asked him for

names of Kenneth Sherman, Emil Jackson and Delmar
Mitchell as candidates for Councilman-at-Large.
Mr. Lane said that Councilman Mitchell “agreed in
front of witnesses to allow his name to be placed on the

petitions.”

One set of signatures contains 4570 signatures, and
the other set contains 3390. The Board of Elections must

evidence,” Mr. Lane said. “He has never given one
shread of evidence. Charles Black is only doing what
he is ordered to do.”

decide whether to consider the sets together or separately
in determining whether Mr. Lane has the required 1500
valid signatures.

Raps opponents
Slashing out at both his opponents, Mr. Lane
said: “She (Mrs. Slominski) is going to have to deal
with more than ‘to bus or not to bus,’ because we’re
going to point out that that’s not the issue.”
Of incumbent Democratic Mayor Frank A.
Sedita, he said: “It’s interesting to me how the
strategy of Mr. Sedita has changed in the past few
months. Before June 1st, the strategy was for the
mayor to take a more conservative line. But after
June 17th the mayor and his advisors made a
determination that it was a waste of his time to try
to pick up any conservative votes.”
“The appointment of Clifford Bell as party
sergeant-at-arms was a signal that they had decided
to move in the direction that they should have
moved in all along. But now it’s too late,” Mr. Lane
added.
What will Mr. Lane do if his opponents refuse to
debate him?
“We are going to insist that the radio and
television stations observe the spirit, as well as the
letter, of FCC regulations regarding equal time,” he
said.
“In addition, we will be meeting them on the
stum Everywhere they go, our people are going to
be there. They’re not going to be able to get away
with dealing with the non-issues they’ve dealt with in
the past.
“We’re going to try to get the people to
understand that no candidate who fears a
confrontation over issues deserves the office of
mayor.”

speculation which he denied as
frequently as it was raised. Word
that Mr. Meyerson would not be

members of the academic

the announcement
being made just three days before
the resumation of classes.
The Assembly which Mr.

established by the American

In a letter to the University
Teaching

community, Meyerson explained
why he was leaving office at this
time to devote most of his
energies to the work of the
Assembly: “The lack’ of broad and
comprehensive knowledge, and
the absence of full discussion at a

national level, have made it
difficult for our University and
for others to come up with sound
and fresh proposals for models of

responsibility which could be of
great help to our campus, to all of
the State University and to other
institutions as well. It is because 1
have come more and more to feel
that local efforts including ours
at Buffalo
have suffered from a
lack of national perspective, that I

have concluded this task should
have a high priority.”
At a meeting at his home
Wednesday night, Mr. Meyerson
further elaborated on his decision:
“I am making two basic
assumptions in accepting this
assignment. One is that colleges
and Universities are fairly
important and not about to be
obliterated. And the other is that
there are very strong forces which
need a base within the University
and with people outside so that
there can be shared bases for
change, improvement and
innovation. This is important for
our campus and for every campus.
I’m not sure how successful such
an effort can be, but every path of
this kind must be pursued,
“Colleges and Universities have

areas of teaching, research and
service, which the Assembly wilt

future, not in a structural fashion,

“In the area of research, some
Universities have become a
conduit for granting foundations
not ours, but many others.
There are certain advantages to
this, but these are not advantages
to the students.
"Teaching, by the very term,
raises a whole series of problems.
Certainly we're more concerned
with learning than teaching, and if
so we have to make teaching the
instrument of learning. I’m not
sure that students in times of
crises don’t learn more from each
other than from those we label
‘teachers’.

“We’re about to enter the
decade of the 70’s and 1 can write
two scenarios. One is the utter
loss of resources for the
University
both public and
private. Universities would close
down for whole periods of time
the kind of thing we've seen in
Japan. This would be coupled by
a silent migration of the faculty.
And 1 can imagine a converse plot
to the drama
the most
tremendous improvements in the
substantive character of the
Universities and also the
governance of them.”

The Assembly of Goals and

will improve the chances of the
latter scenario’s realization.

however, will be the planning of

and the recruitment of deans and
faculty. Dr. Regan will have full
power in all other matters.
Mr. Meyerson said that he
would be returning as President
next fall. When asked to comment
on the speculation that, to the
contrary, he was a likely
candidate for the job of State
University Chancellor, Samuel
Gould, and would be assuming
that position after work on The
Assembly is completed, he made
this statement: “I regard myself
mostly as a professor. I want to be
in-a situation where I’m as close
to students and faculty colleagues
as I can be. It’s by belief that
Chancellor Gould is deeply
attached to what he’s doing and
will continue for many years, and
I’m delighted he will.”
Mr. Meyerson’s Assembly work
will be completed next summer
with the issuance of a report.

Martin Meyerson is out. Peter Regan is in. As least for
this year; On the eve of what will probably be the most
crucial year for Universities everywhere, an announcement is
made at a convocation in Buffalo and we here all must look
to 1969-70 with a hew perspective.
It is not so much Martin Meyerson leaving
in his own
words, he doubts if a single person can make the difference,
and his own “style” of power has always reflected this
philosophy of diffuse decision-making. It is the leadership of
Dr, Regan that will have vital significance for what happens
in the coming months.
No stranger to the office of the Presidency, Dr. Regan
has often filled in for an out-of-town Mr. Meyerson. It was
Peter Regan, in fact, who was Acting President at the time of
last March’s Hayes Hall take-over, and it was Dr. Regan who

To add to the confusion, I attempt from time to
time to put forth the proposition that there are
people in the world. It is my personal conviction
that just on this campus there are many individuals
who are as befuddled by the world and its
absurdities as I am. Some of these are in the bind of
having been “properly taught” to hide such signs of
improper adjustment as confusion,
sensitivity and
pain. It is my small hope that, in addition to

non-human. As ciphers, bodies and things. The

�Military immaturity

Wt&gt;rld View

To the editor:
I have just received a letter from a friend, a second
year married physics grad student, who was drafted and

by John Bradley

President Ho Chi Minh is dead. Free people everywhere have lost a
great leader. Since 1920 (when he helped to found the Communist
party in France) he has never ceased to push for the freedom of his
people
first from the French, then from the American militarists,
and always from the dull, stupid, conservative mind. His was a
dynamic, vital existence, a life devoted to a single goal: the triumph of
an ideal. To that victory, he gave up his home, his family, his security
all the barnacles of the middle-class mind. His way was revolutionary
thought and action, to practice in the world the ideals of popular will
and political struggle against oppression. He gave his life to the
triumph of Communism, and lived to see its conquest of Asia, and the
defeat of American imperialism in his own country.
Senator Everett M. Dirksen is also dead. The secure, the
comfortable and the well-off have lost a champion. His immediate,
personal political power to dictate the struggle of the Right against the
opinion of the majority of this country is well known. A firm believer
in reaction, a generous advocate of the harsh, brutal. Johnson-led war
against the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, the conservative enemy
of revolutionary thought had so put Mr. Nixon under his thumb that
at times it was impossible to tell just who was President. This senatop
led the fight against Dr. Knowles; he solidly backed the ABM-MIRV
systems of world destruction; he was one of the first to oppose the
Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, changing his mind only when it became
obvious that the American people would no longer support such
outright bartering of their right to live in peace. His greatest legislative
accomplishment, he said, was not the legislation that he succeeded in
reactionary though that was, but rather those acts of liberal
passing
or revolutinary nature which he succeeded in keeping off the books.
Two men; two uses of power. The senator would have said that he
served his country well. He has, in reality, served nobody but the
military-industrial complex. Mr. Dirksen has done his work of
obedience well. The generals, the industrialists, the people who
employ, but do not care: they have reduced the popularly elected
president to the status of a mouthpiece, a payer of political promises, a
reader of prepared statements. That is an apology for leadership, not
leadership itself.
Nine months are gone, and what progress has been made toward a
permanent settlement of national and international issues? There was
the Knowles affair, a political sacrifice; the surtax fiasco, a fine
example of political threats and chicanery; the Vietnam aggression,
still with us, you’ll notice, all tokenish withdrawals to the contrary;
the attempt to continue school segregation in the country, sponsored
by the President as a payoff to Strom Thurmond; the visit to
Roumania, which succeeded in putting off indefinitely any
disarmament and control talks with the Russians; the ABM mess, on
which this so-called President on record refused to compromise,
despite the fact that half the Senate proved to be against it. Only two
statements of positive action have been thrown to the people as a sop
for their support of world peace and security: the former total
passport ban on entry to China has been lifted and Spiro T. wishes to
go to Mars by 2000 A.D. Not exactly the type of record to flutter the

pulse.
We must congratulate the Imperium readers. Never in recent
American history has there been such a dramatic sellout to the
Mason-Dixon crowd throughout the country. But all this was
expected. The Nixon election has proven, once again, that the
American people can be fooled by the wealthy reactionaries who
promise peace, but deliver war. Remember the billing he got? Man of
the Hour, The White Knight, the Wonder Boy of American Politics, the
Law and Order Kid, the Great Republican Comeback, the Hopeful
Who Made It. He was thrown at us replete with promises to create a
paradise in four years. The tragedy is that he believe it can be done by
giving orders to minority leaders, riding the wave of Apollo 11, and
telling the Asians to be good boys and that we are very sympathetic

with their problems.
Nothing good is ever accomplished without struggle. Peace does
not create a revolutionary mind. Victory does not follow those who sit
around and play the game. If the man really means what he says about
peace in his time, let him get out and work for it. He can use a few
more Ho’s to help him, a few less Dirksenites to slow him down.

more frightening.
His observations,
“It’s interesting that several fraternity men I talked
with saw a strong resemblance between harassment here
and in their hell weeks. What really amazes me is that
almost without exception, I have seen no officers or
SCO’s who really remind me of that stereotyped
square-jawed fascist image that 1 held in civilian life. Most
of them have a keen sense of humor, boiling over into
immaturity. And it is the immaturity, not the fascism, that
is the hallmark of the career man in the military, who sees
in combat and war the best chance for proving himself, in
an attempt to fill an unquenchable inner need which is
both a symptom and a result of his immaturity^
“It can be readily seen in the young DI’s swapping
yarns about ‘shooting up gooks’ and, just for fun, having
no holds barred (except for hitting the face) fights among
themselves (off base) and driving souped up cars with the
sides bashed in from reckless driving.
“These are the same type of punks (not necessarily
mean, mind you) who become cops, but they are already
on a more intelligent level. There are a few people here
obviously wasting their potentiality, being happy with the
security and camaraderie that the Army club (or gang or
fraternity) offers.
“Even the officers (majors, etc.) are less malevolent
than dull, vaguely impotent, deriving some satisfaction
from being saluted, called sir, and allowed to run a few
things.
“At the very top, men like Wheeler, Westmoreland,
Abrams, manipulating men and material in a huge game of
chess or maybe blocks. These men have no interest in
ideologies or politics, just in being allowed to play their
games, with more and more sophisticated toys, to prove
themselves. And the men who die should be grateful for
having been allowed to play in the holy proving ground of
war. So I’m not drafted, I’m chosen . . .1 leave you with

Stolen art?
To the editor
Wednesday I was sitting in the library checking out
the new issue of ethos (Sept. 10, 1969), when I turned the
page to page 10, and saw a reproduction of MY lithograph,
one that I had done in the spring of ’68 for a print-making
class. 1 didn’t give them that print, nor was I asked
permission for it to be reproduced. Holy Cow! And it says
“sanna ’69” under it! It appears clear to any reader that
this is John Sanna’s art work. Knowing that this print is
my art work, if looks like a very clear Case of deliberate
plagarism.

When I discussed it with the staff, the art editor said
that he had received the print from someone else believing
that it was her art work, and it appears that the source of
the work was not made clear to the editor.
Tfiis is an unfortunate incident, but since I take the
matter of plagarism very seriously, and since a paper is
responsible for what it prints, I am charging ethos with
irresponsibility, and demanding $500 reparation to myself
(the artist) for the reproduction of my art work without
my consent.
I lo not excuse the paper, regardless of the intent of
the art editor. Nor do I think that a printed apology after

th- fact will undo the damage.

Bookstore in an amount not exceeding $25.00, which is drawn on a
United States bjmk, can be cashed by their Check Cashing Service,
located on the balcony of the Bookstore, for a 10 cent fee, by a
properly identified student, faculty, or staff member. The limit of
$25.00 has been set because, of the many expenses involved in offering
this service. The cashing, depositing and general paperwork involved
requires the full time efforts of two employees.
Additionally, some people have abused the privilege by cashing
N.S.F. checks which has increased their work load, and when one
$25.00 check proves to be uncollectable, it is necessary to cash 250
checks at 10 cents each to recover the loss thus incurred. Incidentally,
this 10 cent
applicable in cases where merchandise purchases
are involved. Under these circumstances, the cashiers can accept a
personal check in the amount of $25.00 but a oae dollar minimum
purchase must be made. The Bookstore management has been working
closely with various campus staff and student groups in hope of
reducing the incidents of N.S.F. checks cashed in the Bookstore. With
a significant reduction in this area, they woulej consider the
elimination of the 10 cent fee and possibly raise the check cashing
.

limit.

Q; How are Bulletin Board College courses and Freshman Seminar
courses designated in terms of "major areas?"
A: The instructor determines in which of the three’“major areas’
(humanities, science and technology, social sciences) the course falls.

Q: What are the various methods of grading?
A: The Faculty Senate resolution, passed by the Faculty Senate,
states: "Be it resolved, for purposes of undergraduate grading, that
effective September, 1169. the following changes be adopted: Students
will be graded in one of the three alternative methods of evaluation:
A) Letter grading
B) Written descriptions of student performance
C) Satisfactory-Unsatisfactory grading (the grade of “S" instead of
letter grades “A” through “D”. to earn credit: the grade of “U” no
credit).

A student shall have the opportunity to select letter grading or
in any undergraduate course within the University. Students may
receive credit for courses taken on the S/U system up to a limit of
twenty-five percent of the total credit hours taken at the State
University of Buffalo towards a Baccalaureate Degree. Any course
offered within the University may be selected on a S/U basis to fulfill
the twenty-five percent limit.
The option of a written evaluation will be open to a student only
with the permission of the instructor: there will be no limit on the
number of courses which he may take with written evaluation rather
than the letter grade.
Students must opt for S/U grading before the end of the fourth
week of a course, otherwise letter grading will be in effect; they may
opt for a written evaluation at any time through the last scheduled
meeting.

S/U

Q: Are there any science fiction books in the library? If so, where
are they?
A: Ves, in the Literature collection, located in the basement of
Lockwood Library.
Q: When and how should undergraduates indicate whether they
wish to utilize the new distribution requirement or the previous B/D

requirement?
A: During this transitional period, it is suggested that, in filing the
degree card, the individual student should indicate the distribution rule
under which he wishes to be treated. It is presumed that, in most cases,
undergraduates will find the new requirements more favorable.

Clark Gymnasium was the scene of this year's
fall registration. Sept. 8, 9 and 10 approximately
3500 students each day completed registering
procedures. Lines were usually short, but waiting
times in some cases exceeded 30 minutes.
When asked how the procedures were working, a
secretary in the office of University College
commented: “Very smoothly

from a student.”
However, many students did have complaints. A
number of these were from members of the
freshman class. Lynne Traeger summed up the
feeling: “It’s all very confusing to a poor little

Another freshman, Jill Rosen said: “It went

Academic reforms put
into practice this year
Academic reforms at the State
University of Buffalo this year
will provide greater flexibility to
students in their educational
pursuits. The reforms stem
directly from three resolutions
which were passed by the Faculty
Senate last spring.
The first resolution calls for
new degree requirements and a
four-course program which will
replace the previous five-course
program. As a norm for
undergraduates, the four-course
program will enable students to
work more intensely and devote
more time to each course.

resolution has also

designed to assure scope for

The second resolution provides

alternatives in the methods of
grading which increase the options
for both faculty and students. In

for written evaluations and

system is intended to encourage

would not normally take for fear
of the pressures of the letter

The , third resolution proposed
that the transition to new
arrangements be the responsibility
of the appropriate committee of
the several faculties. They would
be in collaboration with their
departments and provosts. The
provosts would report on progress
at the end of this semester and
again in the spring of 1970.
The academic changes will be
subject to intense evaluation at
the end of a five-year trial period.

State Convervation Commissioner R. Stewart
Kilborne, in response to ceaseless pressure exerted
by local politicians and area congressmen,
announced recently that the leasing of underwater
land in Lake Erie for off-shore oil drilling would be
postponed indefinitely.

The announcement was the last in a long series
of contradictory statements issued by the State
Conservation Department, and was seen as a
temporary capitulation to the strong opposition to
off-shore drilling among the residents of Western
New York.

In mid-August, Secretary Hickel announced the

for damages which might result from oil spillage.
This prompted Irwin H. King, secretary of the

Lake Erie, immediately sent ,-a telegram to

It is regrettable that so much

designated mediocre. Perhaps a
of talent or' perhaps an
omnipresent obsession with the

lack

dollar sign has not allowed the
American theater to develop its
diverse and powerful potentials.
If the theatrical media is to be
rescued from this plight of
dramatic drought, it must be by a
new kind of theater. It must be by
a vital, experimental type of
theater still capable of affecting
the psyche of each member of its
audience.

Hence it is fortunate that more

awakening to an otherwise
moribund media.

record your honor, always meant what I wrote and
stood by my statements. I have the bruised shins to
prove it.
For those of you unfortunate enough to have
missed an episode of “Westbrook Pegler Rides

attendant to one of my epic persecutions just, of
course, to let you know what you can expect in the

future.
I once felt that one production was so dull that
“it laid upon the stage like a beached whale,” that
the leading lady’s sobbing was “reminiscent of the
belchings of an oversexed vaporizer” and that the
play’s closing was a “mercy killing.” For these
comments, and many more, I was met by the cast at

the door of The Spectrum office and informed that
the leading lady had a muscular boyfriend. 1 also

A fitfully amusing, but largely unintelligent
parody of my review was printed in the next issue.
The writer, who will get no publicity from me as I

Walter Winchell was a hack columnist with a
talent for hyperbole (look it up, dear) and little
perceptible critical ability. Mr. Winchell apparently
being her model of a theater critic (has she ever
heard of Atkinson, Kerr, Barnes, Nadel or Glover?), I
am thankful that I am not he.

AN OPEN LETTER TO ARTHUR 0. EVE AND THE EVE-LANE MACHINE...
DEAR ART,
We have supported you in the past, not because you stand for a new politics or for our
politics, but because you were at least independent. Now you arc asking too much. Because of
a squabble over power within the Democratic Party you have launched a Lane-for-Mayor campaign just to defeat Sedita. But, Art, defeating Sedita means FOUR YEARS OF ALFREDA
which is to be Police ComSLOMINSKI and her associates (Lyman, Buyers, Lewandowski
).
missioner?
Lane has been your partner in running the Black Democratic machine. Like yourself he is
an old line ward politician with a new line of talk. He ran the CAO as a patronage organization
for your machine. Neither one of you stands for a reorganization of society except to get a
better shake for yourselves. You are not interested in a White-Black coalition because you are
incapable of sharing power
that is after all what your fight with Sedita is really about. You
are only using that talk to trick us into thinking that Lane represents something new.

STOP

SLOMINSKI

The issue in this election isn’t Lane’s false hope. The issue is Alfreda Slominski and what
four years of her and her associates would do to the city and people of Buffalo; what it would
do to the schools and the police. She represents a portion of the national tide of repression in
the name of law and order. Repression against young people; against Black people and against
our hopes for the twentieth century. ART EVE, we do not understand why you want to be
known as THE MAN WHO ELECTED ALFREDA SLOMINSKI, but, if you two pull this off,
that is how you will be known.
There are only two candidates running against Alfreda and SHE MUST BE STOPPED.
Your scheme to defeat Sedita by electing her must be stopped too. The choice is clear. We
must support Frank Sedita. He can beat her.

If the English and Sociology departments
cannot handle the proportionately high number of
students who want these fields as majors then the
school should provide more funds to ease the snag.
Many of the upper-level courses in both these

The status of the athletic situation at the State
University of Buffalo is in a vastly different state
than it was just one year ago.
At this time last year, students had the option
of contributing $12.50 a semester to the coffers of
the Athletic Department in return for free admission
to all intercollegiate events.
Following a year of conflict that has shaken the
Athletic Department to its very, foundations, all
students will see a $12.50 athletics fee assessed on
their bills this semester.
The battle started early last year upon the
realization that a voluntary fee of $12.50 was
inadequate to finance the existing program.
In an effort to alleviate the situation, a group o&gt;
students proposed a referendum in orjder to institute
a mandatory fee. The referendum passed with little
difficulty. However, the fact that the wording of it
did ot specify that the fee was to be $12.50 rendered
it meaningless.

Opposition to fee
The opposition began to organize. It was aided
by the publicity given to the case of “Speed”
Powrie, a football player who allegedly was told by
former Head Coach Doc Urich to either desist from
demonstrating his radical views or leave the squad.
Thus, the ugly head of politics had raised itself
in the center of what had already been a
controversial issue.
Because of the vague wording of the
referendum, the Polity decided that another
referendum was necessary to set the amount of the
mandatory fee at either $12.50 or at $5.50, an

amount favored by many student leaders.
Following a bitter publicity struggle that has left
many wounds yet unhealed, the $5.50 fee received a
plurality of student votes, along with a provision
that a Student Athletic Review Board be instituted
to oversee and analyze the budget of the
department.

Another referendum
The department quickly found itself in a state
of absolute choas. The funds available were simply
inadequate to meet the commitments. Coach Urich
resigned to accept a position at more stable but less
prestigious Northern Illinois University.
The possibility of the shelving of the entire
athletic program led to a “Save Our Sports”
movement on the part of concerned students and
alumni. Their efforts were culminated in yet another
referendum, this one in order to reach a final
decision as to whether a $12.50 mandatory fee
would be instituted for the next four years.
Following more political infighting, the
referendum was passed.
The reorganization
In lieu of the sudden, increment of available
revenue, as well as student criticism, the Athletic
Department began the process of reorganization.
James Peele, athletic director for many years,
stepped down in order to devote more time to
teaching, and Dr. Lawrence A. Cappiello was named
interim Director of the Division of Physical
Education, Recreation and Athletics. His duties are
to advise and preside over the previously formed
Executive Committee consisting of various Athletic
Department personnel and student representatives.
Its objective is to review and plan alt phases of
the athletic program and to propose a budget, which
is reviewed by the Student Athletic Review board
headed by Scott Slesinger.

Ball State
The Cardinals’ head coach. Wave Myers, is
starting his second season at Ball State. He has 26
lettermen returning from last year’s 5-4 squad, and
should have a solid team.
Probably the primary weakness is that the team
is made up mainly of underclassmen. Six senior

regulars

will provide most of the experienced
nucleus.
Coach Myers expects that a more balanced
offense and an improved defense will be the strength
of the team. Junior quarterback Willard Rice, who
broke Ball State's passing records last year, will
direct the offense from its basic pro-I and flip-flop
formations.
Offensive backfield
Rice’s supporting backfield includes fullbacks
Don Burchfield and Jim Crable, both Junior
lettermen, and tailbacks Charles VanPelt and Dave
Means. VanPelt, sophomore, is the younger brother
of Amos VanPelt, college All-American last year who
holds many Ball State rushing records.
There are four returning lettermen in the
receiving positions, two of them split ends. The
interior offensive line has fair size
the men range
from 5 feei.10 inches, 207 pounds to 6 feet 5 inches,
244 pounds.
The Ball State staff feels that the Cardinals’
improved defense has more speed and no weak spots
left from last year.
Greg Schaeffer, a two-year letterman at
fullback, will switch to linebacking and join three
other regulars at that position in the 4-4-3 defensive
-

setup.

The defensive secondary is expected to be one
of the fastest in ball State history, and three
lettermen will be returning to the line.

The NYA: a call to arms on the right
by Linda T. Hanley

$2.00)

Your history professor tells you that the three greatest men in history are Karl Marx,
Fidel Castro, and Eldridge Cleaver. Your sociology professor spends most of his time
defending homosexuality and decrying American fighting men in Vietnam. Your English
professor hardly shows up for class. You are amazed to find that your school is filled with
black scholarship students who are getting away with murder both academically and
-

politically.

,

The black militants have the run of the campus. Your girlfriend has been insulted by the
blacks. Your best friend was beat up in the school cafeteria because he refused to
surrender his seat to a black activist.
You speak out one day in history class. You say
Karl Marx was a liar, Fidel Castro is a butcher and Eldridge Cleaver is a convicted rapist.
You have passed all your tests, handed in all your reports and haven'I missed a day of
class. Yet, when you receive your semester grade card, you find yourself with an "F" in
history. You flunk, but the black students who hardly ever show up for class, never hand
S
in reports and flunk the tests, get top grades.
You have nowhere to turn. Your education and future look bleak, (from the National
Youth Alliance pamphlet, "Lost and Alone")
..

The call to arms had gone out and they
responded. With
“Wallace” ties and
“Slominski” pins, they came to hear the
lectures and see the movie and ask a few
pertinent questions and then move on to
buy the inequality buttons (a white
$.25
unequal sign on a black background
a piece and cheaper by the quantity) and
browse through the literature of the
Noontide Press assembled for their reading
pleasure.

The Importance of Race in Civilization by
Wayne Macleod (99 pages, $1.50)
A panoramic survey of world history from
the first stirrings of culture. Macleod’s
scholarship cuts through oceans of
pseudo-intellectual jargon to get at the
truth of things, and to explain where we
are. how we get here and what can be done
about it. A balanced view of the history of
mankind, combining history, gentries and
cultural values.

Who’s holding
by Rich Johnston

Staff Writer

Buffalo is an expensive city in which to
live. Especially for a person on welfare.
Fifty-nine dollars a month plus rent is
all that an unmarried welfare client receives
from the Erie County Welfare Department.
Fifty-nine dollars to last thirty days. About
two dollars a day for food, clothing, doctor
bills, and other necessities.
The Erie County Welfare Department
has the power to request funds to increase
its monthly allotments, but because of
politics. Welfare Commissioner George
Sipprell refuses to lift the finger needed to
aid the poor.
Mr. Sipprell is a Republican. The
County Executive, B. John Tutuska. is a
Republican. In November the Republican
administration will face re-election and in
this
of
year
taxpayer revolt the
Republicans are reluctant' to mention the
idea of bigger welfare outlays.

Four basic levels
Any increases in welfare payments
would mean added county expenditures,
but federal and state sources would foot

state and federal aid, Buffalo receives the
lowest level, even though it is entitled by
law to the highest.
Sipprell has consistently refused to ask
permission of the County Legislature to
apply for the increased federal and state
benefits.
The average person in Erie County
knows little of the political hanky-panky
which is threatening the well being of
destitute fellow citizens; facts and figures
are rarely made public.
Within the welfare agency itself,
however, there are case-workers who know
the situation, and who are fighting to
rectify welfare injustices.

committee was formed “in awareness that
a number of things are amiss in the agency,
in fear of the new decreases in grants
effective July I, and in attempts to
redefine our roles as caseworkers.”
Faulkner :s belief is that the welfare
agency is “class biased, racist, and
paternalistic toward the poor. The agency
treats poverty as a pathological, rather than
as an economic disease,” says Faulkner.
The committee’s immediate gripe is that
the agency refuses to ask for the money it
could legally request. States Faulkner; “We
will do everything in our power to further
our end of helping the people.”
Considerable sympathy

There

automatons who will never be activist
supporters,” laments Faulkner.
“But I think that beneath those stuffy
veneers we have stirred some conscience.”
Over one hundred employees signed a
regent committee petition to Sipprell;
thirty marchers are about all the
committee can expect in a picket line.
Unfortunately for the poor, the welfare
agency hierarchy doesn’t exactly care for
the Committee of Concerned Social
Workers, and Commissioner Sipprell has on
various occasions tried to thwart the
committee’s attempts.
As Faulkner says, “Mr. Sipprell doesn’t
like anyone to cause ripples. At first he
laughed us off, expecting our efforts to last
about two weeks. Now he’s uptight about
all the publicity we have attracted.”

Crack down
In his anti-committee campaign, Sipprell
has threatened to cut off graduate school
scholarships to those student-employees
who join, has ordered his floor supervisors
to crack down on committee members, and
most recently has subponeaed six members
to State Supreme Court for using the
agency’s 210 Pearl Street address on an
application for a committee post office
box.

When the committee petitioned Sipprell
to request more state and federal aid. the
commissioner replied that he would need
an economic study to warrant additional
funds.
before
State
Testifying
Assemblyman Arthur O. Eve’s welfare
hearing two weeks ago, Sipprell offered the
same explanation.
The committee contends that a national
survey printed in Time magazine already
has shown Buffalo to be the fifth most
expensive American city in which to live,
and that Sipprell has never authorized the
welfare department to conduct the study
which he claims is vital.

Smaller grants

Meanwhile, Erie County welfare clients
are forced to battle inflation with smaller
grants than before July I, when statewide
welfare cuts went into effect.
At present, single persons receive $59 a
month plus rent, couples $101, families

with one child $143, and families with two
children $185.
“It is impossible for human being to live
decently on welfare,” says Faulkner.
For Erie County to give the top rather
than the bottom level, grants would be a
start. Seventy dollars for single persons
could be an improvement over $59, $116
for couples an improvement over $101.
But even this temporary measure would
not be enough, says Faulkner. What this
country needs, he asserts, is a concentrated
effort that could guarantee every family
$5000-$6000 a year.

The revolutionaries of the streets and the revolutionaries
of the workers of the world met head on in Norton Union

The SDS-Peace and Freedom Labor Committee

some doubt, however, about a

“Union leaders are going to be

Some of the students present
expressed their disinclination to
support a white-collar strike or
white-collar union activity.
“Yes, well the student has

underdog,” he answered. “That is
a natural response. But what is
more important is our future.”

Rhyme and reason
Thompson pointed

out that

even the IWW is not “a bunch of
people who are entirely unified.
Our viewpoint is that ‘Here is
something that should be done. A
serious effort must be made to get
working people to believe they
have a common interest in their
future’.”
He dusted off an old rhyme to
back this up:

“The growers could never pay us back for the sufferings of
the past. But we’re hoping that they will be willing to sign an
honorable contract for the future.”
Cesar Chavez, United Farm
Workers Organizing Committee
The strike of California and Arizona farm workers
against the grape growers is four years old. But the growers
have still not come to the point where they are willing to
grant the simple demands of the strikers decent wages and
working conditions. When the strike began to hurt them
they brought in scabs and continued to coerce those they
could into not walking out.
So the strikers turned to the boycott. Grape growers
might be able to work their way around the labor walkout,
but massive public Refusal to buy their product would surely
provide the needed pressure to bring them to negotiations.
The consumer boycott is now two years old.
It is the workers’ oply real non-violent weapon in their
struggle for economic and social justice. And it appeared to
be working
in June, ten of the major growers agreed to sit
down at last with the United Farm Workers Organizing
Committee, the worker’s representative in the strike.
However, as has happened in the past, the success of the
consumer boycott is again threatened by actions of the
powerful growers. They have the money, the legislation and
the power. Now they also have the Department of Defense
on their side
it currently purchases 2.5% of all the US
table grapes produced. Since the dispute began, the DoD has
upped its purchase of grapes by some 700% and this year
eight times as many will be shipped to the troops in Vietnam
as in any previous year. With buying power like that, it is
more necessary than ever that individual consumers
strengthen their stand against the injustice being endured by
the striking farm workers in California and Arizona.
Locally, the ties between the grape growers and Western
New York supermarkets are strong. All are co-operating with
the powerful farm owner in the West. Some are selling
California grapes in fradulent “imported” crates; others are
selling them outright. There is currently a consumer boycott
of the Loblaws chain of supermarkets. A&amp;P, the largest
chain, has consistently tried to pass itself off as a friend of
the worker, but it is as guilty as the rest. In the midst of
negotiations, they once again began selling California grapes.
Wednesday, it will have been decided whether A&amp;P will
co-operate with the ban on grapes, or whether a consumer
boycott will begin for their stores as well.
These large supermarket chains have the power to exert
enough pressure on the growers to force them to submit to
negotiations. But first, they have to be made to feel the
economic pressures themselves. Boycott those stores like
Loblaws which continue to buy and distribute California
grapes, and A&amp;P if they will not reverse their decision, can
be offset by enough concerned citizens not only refusing to
buy California grapes, but refusing to patronize those stores
which continue to sell them.

To the editor

education for “A Reader” to have seen Mrs.
Robinson’s composure during her entire trial
especially on the night of her conviction
and the
determination and strength she has continued to
show since. The struggle for women’s liberation has
been a long one. The fight for equality of all men
and women will continue until a complete social,
political and economic revolution frees the Black
oppressed people in America and frees the entire
mass of working people of all colors, the world over!
The writer of the letter could have done much
more for Mrs. Robinson and for the struggle of all
women by exposing Corydon Ireland’s article showing his male chauvinism, political ineptness, and
his racist “white man’s burden” attitude toward the
struggle for Black liberation. Certainly by attacking
her defense committee, the writer did nothing but
attempt to discredit Mrs. Robinson and those who
have done their best to help her in her struggle for
her and her peoples’ freedom!
Jean Marquardt Bentivogli
-

The letter which appeared in The Spectrum on
July 25, 1969, signed by “A Reader 7 did, at best,
little to clear up the gross misconceptions which
Corydon Ireland’s article of July 18 put in print.
Yes, the article about Mrs. Geraljftne Robinson
was indeed “a masterpiece of condescension,” but
wasn’t the letter the same? Certainly the writer
might have criticized Corydon Ireland for his blatant
political naivete or The Spectrum for not assigning a
woman to write the feature article on Mrs.
Robinson, But instead the writer chose to attack
Mrs. Robinson’s defense committee and indirectly
Mrs. Robinson herself!
I find it hard to believe that a student on this
campus could honestly believe that these alledged
quotations in Corydon Ireland’s article were accurate
or even a truthful paraphrase of statements made by
anyone representing Mrs. Robinson or Mr. Sostre.
The writer’s sensitivity for Mrs. Robinson’s
womanhood is well-taken: the representative
“quoted,” a woman, is very conscious of the male
chauvinism rampant in all areas of our s defy. She
never intended to have Corydon Ireland twist her
words, with several of his own added, to in any way
misrepresent the reality of Mrs. Robinson’s political
case, both as a Black person, and as a woman.
Where was the writer during Mrs. Robinson’s
trial? Doesn’t he or she wonder how Mrs. Robinson
manages to care for her five children and still carry
on her struggle in Buffalo’s racist courts? In fact, the
struggle of a Black woman in white America is so
difficult it can never be completely understood by
those closest to her, or even by her defense
committee. It would, however, have been an

Editor's note: Mr. Ireland makes this reply to the

words, something which you have been cheated out
of by your genital attachment to political causes.

ACTING

WORKSHOP

Universal was always considered the
“poor-relations" studio, and not just
because its founder “Uncle" Carl Laemmle
had 72 relatives on the payroll. It always
relied on one star, one gimmick (30’s
horror movies) and when giants like MGM
were firing janitors, it tried to form a
costly stable of young actors which MGM
had done 25 years before. Today, Universal
churns out production line television
shows, movies and movies for television
and is now the biggest and least imaginative
studio in the world.

Hunter's “Thoroughly Modern Millie." It

There are still lines at the box office today.
Twentieth went ahead and made the
picture, replete with costly location
shooting (yes, it rained) and today the
picture sits gathering dust ready to be
released. Laurence Rockefeller is
reportedly delighted over the situation
because as long as the movie is unreleased,
his bank can collect vaults full-of interest.
If “Paint Your Wagon” fails, as it well
might, Paramount can absorb the loss.
Because of its acquisition of Desilu and its
vast television properties and because the
studio is owned by a huge industrial
conglomerate, it can absorb the loss.
Universal and Twentieth both have
healthy television incomes and many hit
movies and can afford losses.

Gable acted are often empty or filled by
makers of commercials. MGM just reported
a $19 million deficit at a time when the
other studios are cleaning up.
Almost as a last ditch effort to
capitalize on the resurgence of musicals,
the studio has decided to remake their
1939 “Goodbye, Mr. Chips” as a musical.
It started as a vehicle for Rex Harrison,
went to Richard Burton, back to Harrison
and finally was given to Peter O’Toole.
Peter O’Toole?
No rich parents
The Greer Garson role was to be given
to Julie Andrews, who refused; Lee
Remick who was asked to leave (it was
settled out of court), and finally ended at
Petula Clark.
Braces of directors, producers and
songwriters came and went. So did the
money. MGM does not have a rich parent
company. MGM does not have extensive
television holdings. MGM may sink if the

another planet.

What will be the first words when man lands on
a more distant planet. Mars? When will the headlines
scream “Man on Mars?” Who will be the first man on
Mars?
The efforts that led up to the moon landing
began earlier in the decade with unmanned efforts
orbiting, and soft-landing on the moon’s surface.
Man had reached out and touched the moon.
\

Interstellar isolationism

Last week the latest unmanned satellites Mariner

6 and 7 made a close pass over the surface of the
planet Mars. After months alone in space. Mariner 6
came alive sending television pictures back to Earth.
These pictures are the closest ever taken of the
mysterious red planet.
First the moon, now Mars. Man, as long as he is
man, will quest into the unknown. It has been
estimated that it will cost $24 billion to take man on
a voyage to Mars. Many claim that now that the
moon has been reached, man should revert into a
period of interstellar isolationism.
Perhaps they are right in saying that man should
concern himself with his own internal problems. But
it should never be forgotten that man is a creature
that hates the unknown.
Perhaps this is the reason why man is different
from the other orders of animal life on this planet.

One Hollywood extravaganza was entitled, “The
Angry Red Planet.’’.Life on Mars as depicted in this
cinematic gem consists of amoebic monsters as tall as
city hall; Martians that are seldom seen but when
they are, they appear to be gigantic and bestowed
with three eyes. They also live in cities that are miles
high.
Also depicted in this flic is man’s first death on
Mars. It seems that man will be swallowed up by a
giant amoeba.
Another version of Martian life, as presented to
us by Hollywood, comes to us in a movie called
“Rocketship X-M.” In this movie Mars looks a lot
like the Nevada desert, with gently sloping hills and
valleys.
Yet lurking in the background are horribly
mutated beings. They are the experimental animals

�Costner learns a lesson on Nash St.
O'O' Editor
This is the story of the young

man on Nash St. who carried the

skinny stick.

About 10:30 p.m. on the night
of July 28, a man with a skinny
stick was walking home. He had
just picked up the stick on the
street and was using it as a cane.
As he walked, he tapped it against
the sidewalk and riddled it along
the fence ribs.
The stick was his company
noises and it is nice to hear noises
that you know when you are
alone. It was something to do on
The man with the stick was
alternately happy and pensive.
He was happy because he was
on his way home and because he
had just gotten something good
for free.
Before he picked up the stick
on Nash St., a friend had given
him the rest of a can of beer he
didn’t want. The man with the
stick liked beer so he wrapped it
up in a bag to take home with
him. The bag swung in one hand,

because he had just seen his little
brother Jerome, who is 15 years
old. Jerome had proudly shown
him something.
“Look here, Floyd.”
He took an object from his
pocket. It was a pearl-handled
switchblade knife' with what
looked to Floyd like a two-inch
blade.
“Lerame see that,” Floyd said.
“Where’d you get this?”
“My boss gave it to me.”

if there was anything wrong he’d
give it back to his boss, who was a
white man named Ron.

Subject to harassment
Since that incident in May,
Floyd claims he has been subject
to harassment by the police, who
know him now. (Neither Floyd
nor Joyce had a previous record.)
Sometimes a policeman will yell
obscenities from a passing patrol
car at him, other times he will be
searched for no evident reason.
“Every time I look around,”
Floyd says, “the police are
bothering me."

Leonard Costner, of an Oxford

brother out of jail, as did Their

Floyd dropped the stick at this
point and ceased to be the man on
Nash St. with the skinny stick. It
was serious. Now he was Floyd
Costner, age 19, of 243 Eagle St.
in the projects.
It was serious now because he
was already being prosecuted for
“inciting to riot” the charge
placed against him and his sister
Joyce, 23, after an incident last
May.
The Costners were arrested

hadn’t wanted to drink it on the

that East Side neighborhood do it
all the time..
“You know you can’t carry an

said.
“Let
me see your
identification.”
“I don’t have any.” Floyd said.
“Well then, what else you got,”
the policeman retorted.
He searched Floyd and found

The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

City Editor

Chicago is a teeming, windy concrete canyon
poised on the southwest tip of Lake Michigan.
Before that area was settled the Indians called it
Checagou” for its strong-smelling wild onions.
Today there are no more Indians pitching camp
by the side of the lake and there are no more wild
onions, but there are enough strong smells to quizzle
any set of curious nostrils. It is a heavily industrial
city, leading all other U.S. metropolitan areas in the
production of steel, electrical products, chemical
products and food.
Besides these industries, Chicago leads the
nation in the production of soap, perfume, cosmetics

and snuff, all of which demand your nasal attention
once they are finished.

Old nose job

To industrial Chicago all the world is a nose

waiting to be tampered with. Any description of that
city has to, in some way, stimulate what is olfactory
about human experience. Rumbling somewhere in

stone and steel guts of Chicago is the
overpowering desire to violate the air, to detonate

the

complete nasal submission.
It’s a wonder, then, anyone smelled the smoke.
Last May 25, Pentecost Sunday, someone on
Chicago’s South Side reported a “garbage fire” in an
alley. When the firemen got there they were
confronted with a very strange scene.
Draft fans the fire
Standing around the billowing flames there was
a circle of people, 13 men and two women, looking
very gleeful and trying to sing.

The police were called. It looked to witnesses
like the flrerbugs were drunk.
The fire chief stood by - it took a long time for
and when he
the water to come through the hose
looked more closely he saw that the “drunks" were
not burning his idea of garbage at all. They were
burning draft files.
Until the police came he stood there very
uncomfortably and watched as the 15 people stirred
the fire to life again, putting more cards and records
into the flames.
In all, 60 stacks of l-A cards and registration
files were burned before the police arrived.

Flight of Apollo:

Man’s footsteps
into the unknown
by Joseph Fernbacher
Feature Editor

Travelling through space in a metallic fetus, three embryonic
human beings pushed their way through the womb of the unknown
and man was born again on another world.
On Sunday July 20, man put one foot forward and, like an infant
child, took his first step into the vast unknown of the solar system.
Two men, explorers of the unknown, made history when they
made the first imprints in the cohesive soil of Luna. The man in the
moon is alone no longer.
Today is Friday and the three astronauts are now resting inside a
decontamination chamber somewhere on the ocean. Mankind, once
restricted to the ground he walked upon, has now travelled almost a
quarter of a million miles into outer space and set foot on the surface
of another world.
-

No longer terrestrial
As Neil Armstrong said as he first set his foot upon the moon,
That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for Mankind.” No longer
is man terrestrial he is now extraterrestrial.
The most important event in the history of modern man was given
the most excellent coverage of any event ever to occur in human
“

history

The instrument that has been condemned for its violence and for
its imbecility has presented a most comprehensive coverage of Apollo
11. The three major television networks deserve special praise for their
important role in bringing to some 600 million people live coverage of
man’s first moments on an alien world. ABC, NBC, and CBS combined
all of their television knowledge and news reportage to give the people
of earth the moon.
The entertainment presented by the networks to fill in the waning
hours of the morning before and after the history-making events of
July 20 and 21 were of high quality and surprisingly very entertaining
To those of us who braved the
loss of sleep for the over thirty
hours continuous coverage of the
moon shot well done. To those
who didn’t you certainly missed a
lot of interesting material.

The IS went quietly. They had waited to be
arrested. Some had long hair and beards, others were
dressed as clerics.
As'they were being led to the paddy wagon, two
reporters from the, Chicago Kaleidoscope asked the
officer in charge if they could talk to the prisoners.
He consented, fust as they approached the IS,
another police car screeched up to the scene and
disgorged a high-ranking police officer, unkempt,
unbuttoned, half asleep, but raging and brandishing
his gun.
Now the reporters were between the police and
the prisoners. At the order of the gun-waver they
were arrested too, having committed the sin of
proximity
Charges against the two reporters have not yet
been dropped. A third reporter, a woman
correspondent for UPI, was jailed because she went
to the police station to protest the first arrest.

‘Year of Apollo’
Later on just before the
landing they presented a short
film history of the manned space
program. It was entitled, “1969
Year of Apollo,” and was narrated
by Efrem Zimbalist Jr. In capsule
form it showed the beginnings of
manned space flight beginning
with Allen Shephard’s historic

Once again, beginning in October of 1969, the
World Campus Afloat program of Chapman
College and Associated Colleges and Universities
will take qualified students, faculty and staff
into the world laboratory.
In-port programs relevant to fully-accredited
coursework taught aboard ship add the dimension
of personal experience to formal learning.
Classes are held six days a week at sea
aboard the s.s. Ryndam which has been equipped
with classrooms, laboratories, library, student
union, dining room and dormitories.
Chapman College now is accepting applications for the Fall and Spring semesters of the

I’m tom today between an editor who has “requested" a
column about an insignificant event just concluded here namely the

and my own inclination to try to say
something significant about the lunar landing, since Walter Concrete

So before I roll up my sleeves, let me say congratulations to Miss
New York Stale. Linda Trybus, who is, a fellow U.B. student. But
enough on that. okay editor?

utterances from the surface of the moon should be significant, and
offered 50 or so helpful hints from some of the world's eat mini

Lincoln was wrong at Gettysburg in his denial that what he said
would be insignificant; what they did there important. Standing on
this new frontier, I suspect that what the astronauts said and did will
be well known and long-remembered.

So what is significant about stepping onto the moon?

Condescension robs the meaning from suffering
To the editor.
Last week’s article on Mrs. Robinson (cutely
titled “And now it’s you, Mrs. Robinson”) was a
masterpiece of condescension.

A condescension which seems to have been
shared by both the writer of the piece and by his
quoted “Sostre Defense Committee source”.
According to the latter: “Geraldine is not ‘political’
like Mr. Sostre (why not call him ‘Martin’?). . .She is
just a woman who is proud of being black.” Does he
mean, “she is just a woman?”

“help her people”? If she were not political, would
the Defense Committee be so involved in her case?
They should know better than to make such a
statement.
Finally, why do “political issues seem small

of five children”? If Martin Sostre had been the sole

supporter of five children, would that have
demeaned his politics any or made his treatment
more inhuman?

unprotected?
You seem to claim that if someone decided to
play a prank on the guard he would have been either
pistol-whipped or shot in the head. Besides, I doubt
if any sensible person, even if he were stoned or
tripping, is going to rush over to an armed policeman

and say “stick-em up.” Be realistic.

Another statement you made was that an armed
guard at an emotionally charged student concert is a
very big risk. This is also utter nonsense for the
simple fact that one guard even with a gun isn’t
going to confront hundreds of students in any
situation. Also the guard with the gun was stationed
outside the gates of the field and rarely was inside
those gates. So this cannot be much of a risk to
anyone sitting by the stage.

Surely we could do these things if mens’ minds were turned to the

task
Surely we could

The problem then is that we as a nation lack the resolve to provide
within our boundaries food for the hungry, care for the sick and
diseased, housing for the homeless and those with sub-standard
housing, and better education.

To the editor.
Your editorial concerning the armed guard at
the Blues Festival was, to say the least, a bit juvenile
and unfounded.
I am one of the people who worked at this
concert and I feel that your misleading editorial
should be complimented by the facts.
“The occasion was the Muddy Waters/Buddy
Guy concert in Rotary Field and the armed guard
was hired from an outside agency, ostensibly to
guard the money at the ticket gate.” This quotation
from your editorial seems to imply that the armed
security agent we hired was there for purposes other
than that of protecting the girls in the ticket booths
who had thousands of dollars next to them. To any
realistic person the use of an armed security guard to
protect both people and money being used for a
student service is a sensible thing.
How would you like to be carrying
$2000-$3000 from Norton Hall to Rotary Field

Why, the criticks scoff, is it so easy to land now on the moon and
so hard to eradicate poverty, disease, hunger, blighted cities, racism,
hate aand bigotry, plus all the other ills I’ve missed?

You also imply later on in your editorial that if
a shot had been Tired, a student-police confrontation
would have developed. Again be realistic! At the first
sign of a gun or any such instrument anyone with
any sense knows enough to keep his cool.
Apparently through your editorial you wish to bring
up that whole fiasco of armed campus guards again.
This is only going to lead to confusion and grief.
The Blues concerts held at Rotary Field were
perhaps the best organized affairs of their type on
this campus in a long time. The people working on it
should be proud of the successful job they did in
keeping the crowd under control so that all had a
good time.
If ever you want to have such an affair as the
Blues Festival, you have to learn not to look for all
the little things that went wrong but to look for the
good that such an affair as this has accomplished.
Your editorial is of the type I would have expected
to find in The Buffalo Evening News or The
Courier-Express.
I feel that The Spectrum as a responsible paper,
should know all the facts before jumping to
dangerous and often misleading conclusions. And I
would appreciate it if you could inform me of the
shooting or numerous beatings that you implied have
happened at other concerts of this type.

�Sherkston demonstration:

Bach Festival;

Could the freest border in
the world become uptight?

Relations at what is proudly hailed as “the
freest border in the world” are becoming more and
more strained, as people going up to the Sherkston
Beaches’ demonstration found out last Sunday.
Most of the Buffalo students were not let int

demonstration. The lines began to move forward
toward the toll booth, where one must pay $1.25 or
turn back. As the first few walked through the toll
without paying, Sherkston’s hired guards charged
them with flying fists. A few injuries resulted from
the scuffle; four demonstrators were arrested and
charged with trespassing and fighting.

Practically all the demonstrators managed to get
through the toll onto the beach, where they and
their leaflets were well received by the beach crowd.

Thursday evening for the Sacred
Cantata Program, first of two
Bach Festival Concerts planned
this summer by the Department
of Music.

The Festival Chorus and
Orchestra, with Bach soloists,
were under the conduction of
Thomas Dunn. It was good to see
some of our Philharmonic
members participating in the

Church, on Colonial Circle,
provided the Gothic mood.
The three Cantatas (nos. 36,
161 and 79),were all performed in

they' were originally composed.

Soloists performing were:
Dorothy Resenbetger, soprano;
Lynne Wickep, mezzo soprano;
Warren Hoffer, tenor and
Laurence Bogue, bass.

�amed Desire'

‘Streetcar

of the brutes and

Battle

“Take a Streetcar named Desire, then transfer to one
called Cemeteries, and get off at Elysian Fields,” to embark
on an explosive journey capturing Tennessee Williams’ world
of opposing forces the ‘brutes’ against the ‘butterflies’ in a
play that deserves attendance.
—

Streetcar” is the story of a
woman’s struggle with insanity
and her relationships with three
powerful individuals as she
disrupts their lives to save herself.
She is aging, her frail beauty is
fading and slowly her mind
unravels. Blanche escapes to New
Orleans and the security of her
younger sister Stella Kowalski in
an attempt to stabilize her life. In
doing so however, she comes
between Stella and her husband
Stanley in a violent intrusion,
which threatens their marriage.
“

and she destroys their friend
Mitch, her final hope for life and
peace of mind. Blanche refuses to
compromise herself, so she pays in
the end with insanity, but in the
author’s eyes, this is the most
enviable choice available.
Maestro Tolcs

“Streetcar” is under the
direction of George Toles, who
previously directed Cat on a Hot
Tin Roof and Who's Afraid of
Virginia Wolf? Through Tole’s
guidance. Streetcar was

reconstructed line by line giving
regard to past and future
objectives including scenes which
were necessary for continuity in
the story, but were only
mentioned in the play itself.
Toles views the danger in
directed Streetcar as the tendency
to have the audience sympathize
completely with Stanley, thus
leaving only hate for Blanche.
According to the director,
Williams is too competent a
dramatist for this: there must be
the two strongly opposing forces
in the end to maintain a balance,
so the audience can decide for
itself.

When the football Bulls run onto Rotary Field
this fall, they will no longer be wearing the familiar
blue and white uniforms. Neither will they have the
same coaches nor the same basic formation.
Although the school colors are blue and white,
the Bulls’ uniforms will be blue and gold (New York
State’s colors), with gold helmets and pants.
More important than the uniform change are the
coaching and formation changes.

Bulls to appear in new form

The coaches
Mr. Ransbury, offensive backfield coach, was
named Western New York’s Coach of the Year this
past spring for his achievements at Clarence Central
High School. His football record at Clarence for
three years was 24-0-0. He is a graduate of Brockport
State.
Mr. McNally, offensive line coach, played three
seasons of varsity football (guard) at Buffalo under
Dick Offenhamer, former head coach. He was head
freshman coach last fall after being a graduate
assistant.
Rick Wells, a former Buffalo co-captain, will

assist Mr. Ransbury in the backfield, and Mike
Maser, a guard on last year’s team, will help Mr.
McNally with the line.
Denting, Ransbury and McNally have decided to
concentrate a little more on the Bulls’ running game.
Last year, under “Doc” Urich, passing was used as
the primary means of attack.
“Well try to establish a good running game and
compliment it with passing,” said Mr. Ransbury.
“We can make passing a more dangerous weapon by
using running more. If we emphasize running and
make it go, the [opposition’s] defense will have to
work that much harder.”

“I” formation
McNally added: “We will try to use the offense
to exploit the defensive weaknesses and to weaken
the strong points of a certain defense.”
The plays will be run from a basic “1”
formation. Ransbury said. “We have a lot of the
same plays from last year and have added some new
ones, but we’ve cut down on the numbjer of plays.”
“We kept some of the things Urich did the same
because the boys had a good season last year,”
McNally said. “Urich liked to pass a lot. We will tqi
to emphasize the quarterback’s running with the ball
more.”
The quarterback position is “up for grabs and it
may depend on physical condition and academics.”
Mr. Ransbury noted that there were actually six
listed on the team roster.
Mick Murtha, a two-year letterman who was out
of action last fall, “had his ups and downs in spring
practice. He looked close to his old self in the spring
game.” Murtha's “old self’ completed 84 passes for
1241 yards in 1966 and 72 for 927 yards in 1967.
“Kirk Barton had a phenomenal spring game. He
completed nine of ten in the second half to turn the
game around.
“And then there’s Ed Perry. He was basically

one quarterback most of the spring, but
he would have to improve on his performance in
order to be the starting quarterback this falll.
“Our other quarterback is Doug Philip. lie’s big
and strong, with a fine arm, intelligent, but he lacks
the experience. He may wind up in another
our number

position.”

Likewise, the starting position at fullback will
be fought over. Joe Zelmanski is the leading
candidate for the position, and lettered in that spot
on last year’s squad. But Doug Kozel “has the edge
over Zelmanski in speed, and he could push out the
veteran Zelmanski.”

Good halfbacks

Starting at left halfback will probably be Scott
Herlan, who is eligible this year for the first time.
“He’s got great speed, size (6 feet 1 inch, 200
pounds) and good hands. He has the ability to
become one of UB’s better halfbacks,” said Mr.
Ransbury.

John Faller, also a candidate for left halfback,
“might be a little slower than Herlan, but is an
excellent halfback. He started on the first unit most
of the spring.”
Barney Woodward has a slight edge at this time
for the right halfback starting position. “He’s a
hustler who had an excellent spring,” remarked Mr.
Ransbury. “Senior Pat Patterson, the leading ground
gainer as a sophomore, will wage a fierce battle with
Woodward for the starting position.”
Mr. McNally commented: “We have a lot of
good offensive backs. With the strong running of

Zelmanski, Patterson and Herlan, it should be an
exciting season.”

Experienced line
He said that Charles Donner will probably start
at center. “He had a good spring, and is quick. He
has good speed and excellent desire.
“Jerry Elwell and Bill Hayden, at guard, are
good. Hayden has a lot of experience and is a good
leader. Pat Carney will probably see a lot of action
too..
“At tackle, Tom Centofanti, Chris Wolf and
John Rio will all be playing a lot.”
At tight end, Paul Lang is “an excellent blocker
and receiver
one of the keys to pur offense. Terry
Endress is also good. He? has good hands, and should
see quite a bit of action.”
There are an abundance of candidates for the
split end position. “We have many people (Dick
-

Horn, Joe Moresco, Mike Sharrow, Dennis Waggoner
and Bruce Fraser), and they’re all good players. It
looks like Horn is our starter, but he may go back to
defense.”
McNally concluded: “The offensive line is small,
but they have pretty good experience and hustle to
make up for their size.
“The attitude of the players has been excellent.
The coaching staff has been pleased with their
overall attitudes," said Mr. Ransbury. “We know we
have some pretty good talent, but there are still a lot
of decisions to be made about who plays where. We
feel optimistic and enthusiastic.”

group, but no evidence that an international
conspiracy is involved. Most of the “Fifteen” are
young people connected in some way with the
,
Resistance.
While their activism brought them together, it
was not until the crisis of their act and their arrest
that they could be called a tight-knit group. Like
many of the other activist groups that were arrested
and tried together the Buffalo Nine, the New York
they represent different
Six, the Catonsville Nine
life styles and different (somewhat different)
political points of view.
But if they are imprisoned their ideas will be
carried out by the Chicago Action Committee and
various support groups.
They had easy access to the draft records
because they had rented an office in the same
building only a few days before the incident. The
office was for the Mount Carmel Book Distributors,
which handles publications on the Bible and
anti-draft literature.

Clerical activist transferred

Acting on the principle that many people are
ready to spend at least a week-end in jail, the
committee is now trying to get young people to go
into the other Chicago draft boards and disrupt their
activities for a day by reading lists of the war dead.
One of the “Chicago Fifteen,” that I had the
opportunity of speaking to was Father John Pietra.
He spoke recently at the Quaker Friends Meeting

House in Buffalo.
Father Pietra, a slim, sharp-featured man in his
late 20’s, just graduated from the State University of
New York at Buffalo with a degree in Math
education. Until the fall of 1967 he taught math and
religion at Bishop Gibbons High School. He was
active in the Vietnam Summer 1967 Program and
the October anti-draft week here in Buffalo.
He was transferred to Glenfield, Ont. in the fall
of that year. The technical reason given for his
transfer is that he “skipped one hour of class.”
But the main pressure for his transfer came from
the parents of students at Bishop Gibbons, who were
afraid their children would be corrupted by a teacher
who made his anti-war sentiments known outside the
classroom.
“It is a little too much to demand of young
people to wait until they are old to change their
society,” Father Pietra said. He added, however, that

. .reform will occur, if ever, but it will occur
within the system.”
Father Pietra acknowledged that he treads the
line between resistance and revolution. On the one
hand, he waited for arrest and went peacefully. On
the other hand, he was arrested for committing an
act of violence, a point, at which many pacifist
groups would part company.
“.

Pacifists and SDS-types

“Whenever I mention what happened that day,”
he said, “there are always two sets of objectors.
Pacifist groups disagree because it was a violent
type groups
was mere!
aclibn, am
stupid.”
“Personally,” he continued, “I am not opposed

it. Pacifists are simply unwilling to take any action
of this kind.
very
“The SDS-types think it very foolish
stupid that we waited for arrest. But the fact that we
were arrested, the fact that we willingly faced arrest,
proves we were open about our example.”
—

Concern with efficacy*
Father Pietra tried, however, to distinguish the
Chicago Fifteen from other groups of the same kind.
He believes the action of the Catonsville Nine, for
instance, was meant primarily to be symbolic. (They
poured blood onto some draft files.)
“In our action, however, we were mainly
concerned with effectiveness. We destroyed those
records.”
At first, Chicago officials denied that any
records were destroyed, but at the end of the month
they admitted some damage was done.
Registration books as well as classification cards
were burned. The whole process has to be done over
again. For the month of June, there was no draft call
in the city of Chicago. •
Twelve extra high school girls were hired over
the summer to complete the work.

Females raid draft board
“Women seem to be effective in this kind of
activity,” he added ironically. “There were two in
this Chicago group and the six in New York.”
The case he referred to in New York happened
just recently. Six women raided a New York City
draft board and made shambles of the place. They
were evidently trying to set an example for other
activist women, who are often left out of the “lime
light” because they are not subject to the draft
and so cannot refuse to be drafted.
Because he is a priest. Father Pietra is bound to
attract more attention than the others.
“I am remaining a priest,” he said. “I am
perhaps presenting different ways the ministry can
be exercised.”

Fireside song
What does he expect, as an Italian citizen, on
September 15?
“I might have to serve a sentence first, then get
deported, or they may just deport me. I don’t
know.”
In any case, Father John Pietra is confident the
work of the Chicago Fifteen will be carried on.
On Pentecost Sunday, the day of the burning,
the Fifteen were standing around the blaze trying to
sing a song. They only knew the first line of the song
and nobody knew the melody.
The song they tried to sing was “Oh Happy
Day.”

Vol. 20, No. 6

uly 18, 1969

And now it’s you, Mrs. Robinson
by Corydon Ireland
City Editor

On July 14, 1967, Arto Williams entered the
Afro-Asian Bookstore, 1412 Jefferson Avenue. He
approached Martin Sostre, the proprietor, at the
counter.

“Are you in business?”
“Yes,” Sostre replied.
Williams then said he handed $15 to Sostre. who
gave it to Geraldine Robinson to count.
“It’s all here,” she purportedly said.
Sostre left the room for a few minutes, Williams
relates, and returned with a “bag”. Williams took the bag
and left.
Just outside the store, Det. Sgt. Alvin Gristmacher
took an envelope from Williams which contianed a white
powdery substance. (Gristmacher had given the money
to Williams, who is a former police informer ) The white
powder was later analyzed and reacted positively in a
“Narcotics test.” it was heroin.

Sostre conviction
In March, 1968 Sostre was convicted for possession
and sale of heroin after arguing his own case in court. He
is now serving 31 to 41 years in Green Haven Prison in
Poughkeepsie, New York.
For her small part in the drama at the Afro-Asian
Bookstore, Mrs. Geraldine Robinson, 25, and the mother
of five children, was named co-defendant.
On the eve of Memorial Day, May 29, she was
convicted by an all-white jury after a six-hour
deliblerationn. Charged with aiding in the sale of
narcotics and interfering with an arrest (Sostre’s), Mrs.
Robinson now awaits sentencing in the court of County

Judge Ernest L. Colucci, which reconvenes on
September 4.
Judge Colucci advanced the date for sentencing
three times until the September date was agreed on.
Each stay was granted at the intercession of Mrs.
Robinson’s New York City attorney, Charles T.
McKinney. The date was postponed a third and final
time because court documents vital to Mr. McKinney's
case had reportedly been stolen from his home. He was
unable to appear in court.

Faces 5-15 years
After her conviction, Mrs. Robinson’s bail was
raised to $10,000 from the original $5,000 figure. She
resides with her children at IS Storz Avenue in Buffalo.
According to law, Mrs. Robinson’s conviction could
result in imprisonment for 5-15 years. A maximum
sentence is highly unlikely, however, since Mrs.
Robinson has no previous record.
“The best thing the court can do, in good faith, is to
give Geraldine a suspended sentence,” according to a
spokesman for the Martin Sostre Defense Committee.
This group has remained under the same name since the
incident in July, 1967, when Sostre and Mrs. Robinson
were arrested. The Defense Committee has publicized
the Sostre-Robinson case, as well as raised bail money
and court fees from those sympathetic with the issues
involved.
Mother of five
Mrs. Robinson’s conviction will definitely be
appealed after the September 4 session.
As soon as sentence is passed, the bond which is
being held on her becomes invalid. Her attorney must
then apply for a “certificate of reasonable doubt” from

.

.

.

the Erie County Supreme Court, as well as give notice of
the appeal.
If the certificate is granted, she will be granted
another bail figure, which will be the same or more than
the $10,000 already bonded. Before she can stay out of
jail the, Mrs. Robinson must meet the costs of the new
bond.
Mrs. Robinson is on welfare and it will be obviously
difficult to raise a new sum of money.
In 1967, Mrs. Robinson ran a dingy, hole-in-the-wall
shopfront bookstore on Orange and High Streets on
Buffalo's Bast Side, which supplemented the activities of
Sostre’s Jefferson branch.
According to her court testimony, she made enough
money to pay a babysitter to watch her children.
•

Not political
“Geraldine,” the Committee source continued, “is
not ‘political’ like Mr. Sostre. . . She is just a woman
who is proud of being black.
“She was tied to her home and was leading a very
unproductive life before she began helping with the
bookstore. She just tried to get out and help her own
«

people.”

Buffalo, like many major cities across the nation,
experienced a eildfire ghetto riot in 1967. The fire
seldom grew hot enough to encompass political issues
directly, but some advocates of the Sostre-Robinson case
claim the City of Good Neighbors was an exception.
From the beginning the political overtones of the arrest
and subsequent conviction of the two has been
emphasized by sympathetic parties.
But in the case of Geraldine Robinson, a mother of
five children, political issues seem small indeed.

Exposure to new ideas is
a gain for Colonel Herbert
Colonel J. Herbert, after completing three
“exciting and mind-expanding” years as department
head of the Air Force Reserve Officers Training
Corps program at State University of Buffalo, will be
leaving for his new assignment in Mineola, Long
Island in late July.
“I got more out of this job, I think, than the job
got out of me,” Colonel Herbert said of his stay
here.

“The military tends towards the conservative,”
explained, “and the university is the fountain of
liberalism. Being exposed to the university
broadened my horizons.”
He says that exposing Air Force personnel to
new ideas is one of the reasons employees arc
transferred so often. Colonel Herbert hopes that his
successor, Colonel Robert Garwood, will he able to

Colonel Herbert remains confident about the
prospects of the ROTC program despite the recent
demands of some students to abolish academic credit
for it.
“If a ROtC program at a university is a valid
one and has been endorsed by student referendum,”
he explained, “it should be given academic credit.

“I’m not anti-SDS,” he continued. “They have

However, he feels that “many college students

Dr. Laurence N. Smith. who recently resigned as
assistant vice president for student affairs and
Placement Service director, has expressed enthusiasm
about his future position as Dean of Students at
Chicago State University.
“Chicago Stale,” he said, “affords an excellent
opportunity and a tremendous challenge. That
university is redirecting its efforts to meet the
problems of the city. They have a new, dynamic
president there and will have a new campus by
1972.”
Dr. Smith indicated that he will be involved
with a different type of student body than the one
he worked with here. He noted that since Chicago

He said that it would be difficult to comment

on how he would adjust to these new conditions. “I

This will involve talking to students to find out their

Terming his stay at this University “an

at “being able to work with an old teacher. Dr.

Teachers may be absent this
Education is one of the hardest hit. Unlike most boards,
the Buffalo counterpart cannot control its own funds,
but must rely on the city to go along with what it
suggests.
This “begging stance” has made the Board of
Education the weakest member on the field. There is
little chance it can go along with the demands of the
or even modulate them

BTF
from the city administration.
Unfortunately, the city appears highly unlikely to
involve itself in the BTF-board negotiations any more
than it has to. And it doesn’t have to.
This is an election year. Mayor Frank Sedita is not
willing to take any chances in supporting the teachers’
demands. It may jeopardize his political standing. The
same is true of incumbents in the Common Council who
are up for re-election. It is clear to them that taxpayers

This September there may be a lot of wildly happy
children.
It is a distinct possibility that when they go back to
school, there will be nothing to go back to. Their
teachers may be on strike.
The threat of a teacher’s strike in Buffalo has reared
its ugly head and, at this point, there seems to be no
shining knight on the field of battle to dispatch the
problem and win'the fair damsel.
The field of battle is a dead-end clash between the
Buffalo Board of Education and the Buffalo Teachers
Federation, an independent organization of educators
which has taken the role of bargaining agent for 2600
local teachers.
The fair damsel is peace between the two parties.

and the Board is hard pressed to do so.
Last January BTF negotiated a wage-increase
package with the Board of Education which allowed for
average salary raises of $700 as well as a new group
insurance plan. Following the traditional order of such
negotiations, the agreement was reached before the
Board of Education budget was formally submitted to
the city administration.
In the past there has been no difficulty with this
“play money” negotiation. Public sentiment approved
the increases and there was adequate state and local
money available.
This is not the case today.
Local boards of education all over New York State
have been plagued with “taxpayer backlash.” Voters
have rejected a record number of school budgets and the
trend is likely to continue next year.

Little action
Mr. Peterson maintained that little action will be
generated until around the end of August.
“But if the people across the street (City Hall and
the Board) want to see their schools open,” he said,
“well, they better start thinking about it.”
It is becoming increasingly clear to observers that
the roadblock lies in City Hall and not with the Board
of Education, which has its financial hands tied behind
its back.
In May, the BTF invoked the Taylor Law impasse
procedures. The matter of the January agreement,
according to law, was referred to an unbiased panel of
college professors to “fact-find” and come up with
recommendations for a solution.
The panel presented its report on June 2, suggesting
not only that the original agreement be honored, but
that City Hall take a more positive role in the matter.

$59.7 million
As it stands, the city budget for the Board of
Education is $6.3 million, $3 million less than asked for.
The board’s total budget, including state funds, is $59.7
million. This is a slim $16,760 more than the board
received last year.
Faced with spiraling cpsts of an inflated economy
and the increasing pressure of the Buffalo Teachers
Federation, the board has been forced to create a deficit
budget.

Even with the deficit budget, however, the best the
board can do is raise the ante to 50% of what the
original package with the BTF called for.
According to Robert Peterson, BTF executive
secretary, the latest offer from the board is still
“unacceptable to us.”
“We are maintaining our position according to the
agreement reached in January,” he said. “In September
there will be a meeting of all teachers and there is the
distinct possibility there will be strike action."

Relies on city
As a result, boards of education are “running
scared” all over the state, but the Buffalo Board of

is a college that does more
than broaden horizons.
It sails to them and beyond.
Once again, beginning in October of 1969, the
World Campus Afloat program of Chapman
College and Associated Colleges and Universities
will take qualified students, faculty and staff
into the world laboratory.
In-port programs relevant to fully-accredited
coursework taught aboard ship add the dimension
of personal experience to formal learning.
Classes are held six days a week at sea
aboard thes.s. Ryndam which has been equipped
with classrooms, laboratories, library, student

Chapman College now is accepting applications for the Fall and Spring semesters of the
1969-70 academic year. Fall semesters depart
New York for ports in Western Europe and the
Mediterranean, Africa and South America, ending
in Los Angeles. Spring semesters circle the
world from Los Angeles through the Orient, India
and South Africa to New York.

Unfair fight

So far, City Hall has stood by and watched.
What they have been watching is essentially an
unfair fighl. According to the Taylor Law, which is just
21 months old, governmental agencies are required to
negotiate union-style contracts with their employees.
Ironically, the Jaw makes no distinction between
agencies which can raise their own funds and those
which cannot, like the Board of Education in Buffalo.
The Bourd is in the position of having to negotiate
by law
sums which it cannot guarantee. But there
may be no strike at all in September. Taxpayer backlash
may have cooled enough by then, especially when the
prospect of closed schools and a long teacher strike
enters the picture.
It is clear pressure will increase on the Board of
Education. It is equally clear that BTF will not change
its hard line stance without some kind of radical
development in the negotiations.
The vital element needed to end the head-butting
between the Board and BTF is the intervention of City
Hall.
But there have been no signs that it will do anything
more than watch.

Sunday night. Same place, but a different story
altogether. Buddy and Muddy each worked through
their usual repertoires in their usual styles
but
there was nothing ordinary about the evening.
Otis Spann may have left Muddy Waters, but
nothing else of any consequence has escaped the
grand old man of Delta bottleneck guitar. Although
the personnel in his band has been continually
changing over the past 20 years, the quality of the
music has not changed at all.

The new keyboard man, ‘Pinetop,’ is certainly

felturing Oscher’s harp. But then he walked off-stage
to refuel with Big Bob Murtz and the tension
dropped as Little Sonny butchered B.B. King’s Why
I Sing The Blues.

Muddy’s walk-on
The band then ran through an obligatory
Elmore James tune and Pee Wee 'Madison sang a
rather ordinary Don’t Throw Your Love on Me so
Strong. Nothing special so far. Then, as the band
slipped into something more comfortable, Hoochie
Coochie Man, the audience roared in anticipation
and Muddy ambled onstage, followed by Oscher, and
began: “Gypsy woman told my mother. . .”
At first Muddy doesn’t seem to be doing
anything spectacular but his sheer physical presence
seems to coalesce the flagging energies of both band
and audience. This time, not content with mere
rapport, he slipped on his black Fender Jaquar and
the rapport turned to rapture.

moving as ever and his guitar playing even better
although the unique tremelo in his tone is difficult
to reproduce through such a large P.A. system. The
band was cooking but,the audience’s attention was
focused almost equally on Oscher and “the Man.”
-

-

Oscher is young and white, but he dresses and
plays as though he’d never been away from the
South Side. He hardly missed a note, even when he
was switching harps in mid-solo, and his final foray
on Got my Mojo Workin landed him in the middle of
a delighted and hysterical front row crowd which
was, by then, on its feet and shouting.

Although the material must have been more
than familiar. Muddy was hardly perfunctory,
producing the sort of piercing bottleneck runs that
only he can.

Mojo workout

Pinetop’s boogie interlude was dispensable but
serve to whet the audience’s appetite for
Muddy’s return and the closing version of Mojo.
The finale had its usual effect on the already
excited audience, whipping them to a fever pitch
that carried straight through an extension of the
number as an encore. Muddy left the crowd crying
for more as his equipment was dismantled and
Buddy Guy’s band began to set up.

Blues Prince Buddy
Buddy’s set was something else again. Just
returned from an eight-week State Dept, tour of Fast
Africa, the Crown Prince of the contemporary blues
guitar played for two straight hours. The audience
was in as authentic a Dionysiac frenzy as one will
ever see in Buffalo, for most
if not all of that
time.
It is

difficult and somewhat pointless to describe
Buddy’s act. He has been here several times this year
and the emotional devastation he wreaks upon his
audiences is beyond reportage.
Tenor saxophonist A.C. Reed and Buddy’s
brother, Philip, on rhythm guitar, trade songs while
Buddy lurks in the background playing some,
magnificent guitar lines.

Guy goes a-knocking
then into a few standards like Fever and Knock
on Wood which serve to bring the audience to its
feet dancing and yelling. Then into Mary Had a
Little Lamb/Sunshine of your Love as Buddy leaves
the stage and with the benefit of his 2fl0-foot
extension cord goes marching and playing through
the wildly screaming audience.
By that time any sense of formal structure
save the brilliant and delicate personal control that
only Buddy can conceive and exert - is shot to hell.
At this point last Sunday evening Buddy’s
performance still had an hour to go. He took the
people willing to go and there were nearly 2000
on a journey through pure and heretofore uncharted
ecstasies.

and Buddy’s guitar as well.
Buddy simply outlasted everyone there, and by
one o’clock hundreds of exhausted participants
straggled stupefied through the Rotary Field debris.
A proper end to a Blues Festival.

but

If words could build the new Amherst campus, then surely we
would all have long ago evacuated Main Street for suburban pastures.
The Spectrum alone has already written enough on the topic to have
erected at least the first six colleges (the initial phase of the master
plan).
However, it is men and materials and not words that will
eventually make the plans a reality. The plans, though, are 1 still in the
talking stage
the talking being that between the State University
Construction Fund and various minority groups over the integration of
the work force. And so it is appropriate that we offer more words.
Monday’s meeting to hash out the difference resulted in the
calling of yet another meeting scheduled for yesterday. Chances are
than even this second session will not have come to any definite
agreement, and Dr. Adinolfi’s statement that “the time is now” will
again have to be projected into the future.
Before the talks progress into the second generation already is, we
urge the University planners to seriously already it, we urge the
University planners to seriously consider scrapping the Amherst idea.
It seems that with construction far from begun, it is not too late
to look into the idea of finding another location for a new University
say, downtown Buffalo. Renovation of abandoned buildings plus
construction of a few more might very easily provide the
living/learning center Amherst was supposed to be plus more.
Instead of holing in a campus village, the University, diffused
throughout a small area in the city, would not only give of itself but
benefit from the various cultural, social and political advantages of
urban life.
The State University of Buffalo in Buffalo would also go a long
way towards re-vitalizing a dying city.
A dowtown site was turned down in favor of Amherst originally.
Perhaps it is not too late to reconsider. The problems in seeing the plan
to completion could not be any worse.

Campus security guards occasionally escorted intruders out of the
field during the weekend. It takes only one moment of panic, only one
shot to turn a frenzied concert into a cops vs. students riot. The
Buffalo Police were already there.
Armed security guards have no place at a student concert backed
by student fees. We were lucky this weekend, but what has happened

The question of whether or not campus police should be allowed
to carry guns has not come out of Faculty Senate committee yet;
however, there was an armed cop on campus last Sunday night. The
occasion was the Muddy Waters/Buddy Guy concert in Rotary Field
and the armed guard was hired from an outside agency, ostensibly to
guard the money at the ticket gate. That was the same night that
Buffalo police showed up on response to a complaint from nearby
Veteran’s Hospital.
It takes very little imaginiation to realize what might have
happened if the gate was rushed again like it was at Saturday's concert,
or if someone actually tried to knock off the S2000 collected at the
gate, or if some prankster just decided to walk up on back of the guard
and play hold-up.
The security guard was not hired to fight off the marauding
throngs at the gate - still, an armed cop at an emotionally charged

Meanwhile, in Washington, the administration’s
chief defense of the ABM remains “your President,
right or wrong, your President.” Which seems to me
to lack a certain something. Like intelligence, or
sensitivity, or . . .ad nauseum. (I, not like President
Nixon? Tsk.) It is precisely this ridiculous attitude
that the “conservative wave” seeks to proliferate. Be
good boys and girls, believe, believe, believe . . .and
stop with the embarassing questions already. Does it
not seem somewhat frightening to have a President,
who essentially is claiming that he is right because he
is the President? “Look you people, I won this joty,
fair and square, and now that it is mine, I can’t
possibly make any mistakes.” Run for the bomb

Nostalgia aside, there are no good reasons for not moving into
consolidation districts and plenty of reasons for doing it.
Small central schools will continue under present paths as long as
state aid formulas remain unchanged (Rocky says they will until New
York can get federal help) and operating costs and teacher's salaries

continue to soar.

That path is treacherous, to say the least, because it is the children

will suffer.

Already there are signs. New studies by the State Educai._
Department tell us that 60.9% of the graduates in this area move on to
higher education about 7% below the state average.
A similar situation can be found in many rural areas.

The problem? They can’t compete, even at State University
schools. They can’t compete with progressive school systems in many
metropplitan areas in the state, especially the very rich school districts
on Long Island. They can't afford the kinds of flexible programs those
schools offer, especially in math and in the sciences. They can’t afford
laboratory equipment, good teachers, audio-visual aids and other
teaching equipment. They can’t compete because they can’t afford a
good library, or even up-to-date textbooks.
In Cattaraugus County, you can set this problem down beside the
fact that there is no community college in the area, about the only
“hole” in the state network of two-year institutions. The future can

seem bleak to students looking ahead from high

school.

If consolidation does not occur, if small centralized school
districts continue in their present mold, if parents continue to slash
budgets, the result can only harm their children’s educational
opportunities. And these effects are too sad and too wrong to be
contemplated.

To the editor.
I would like to commend the people who ran last
weekends’s Blues Festival. The entertainers were first
class, especially Buddy Guy and Muddy Waters, and it
was the kind of concert that could have been enjoyed by
anyone. It also seemed to be well organized.
But where the hell were all the people? In a town
where students constantly complain of the lack of
quality entertainment and something to do, it is
extraordinary that Rotary Field wasn’t packed with
people three nights last weekend.
Wake up people, you missed a good thing.

“Bully psychology”

deep
Mailer’s movies are like Mailer’s books
complex in the portraits'of the characters he
presents.
In “Beyond the Law, Mailer himself portrays
one vof the chief characters in his realistic and
frightening studies of the policeman and his world.
The film shows a night at a Manhattan police
station and then details how three of the detectives
spend the remaining evening hours following
completion of their shifts.
Mailer is the station house’s top cop and it’s
through him that we must seek to understand the
film’s main themC that there isn’t much difference
between being a successful gendarme and a
successful criminal.

For Mailer the Cop, comes to the realization in
film that “bully psychology” is the chief
operating factor in both worlds.

“Beyond the Law” convinces utterly that the
police routines it presents are thoroughly realistic,
and commonplace. Along with the police, the film
highlights such stars as Rip Torn and Michael
McClure playing a couple of freakish motorcycle
hard guys, George “Paper Lion” Plimpton makes a
brief appearance as a John Lindsay-type mayor. Jose
Torres plays a boxer, and Peter Rosoff portrays a

ELECTRIC CIRCUS PRESENTS IN TORONTO

The Super Group of All Time

BUND FAITH

Eric Clapton has been brought
out of the rock and roll doldrum
of The Roosters and the early
Yardbirds. He has built up around
him a legend that surpasses Chuck
Berry’s and Jerry Lee Lewis’.
He is a living legend. His total
mastery of his guitar has had
audiences screaming that they
could not see his hands as they
move over the steel wires of his
guitar.

Labelled
first as a blues
guitarist, Clapton has brought
himself out of that bag and sailed
into a bag entirely unto himself.
Steve Winwood, at the age of
14, was
playing
with the
nationally famous Specner Davis
Group. At the age of 18, he
formed a group known as Traffic.
At the age of 21, he is now
nationally famous Spencer Davis
Group. At the ago.of 18, he

one can describe the fury and

sound, sweat and pain. It has been
many a time that Baker has been
carried off stage out of sheer
physical exhaustion.
Laying down the bass lines and
the electric violin is Rich Grech.
Grech is the least known of the
group and therefore must try
harder to keep up with his
colleagues. Formerly
of the
Family, Grech has built up about
himself a mystique and respect
that few artists can claim.
-

Future at hand
Yet, all the above is the past.
The future is at hand. These men
have been searching for something
in their lives, and perhaps they
have found it.
Blind Faith is giving another
concert. This time it will be held
in Varsity Stadium, Toronto on
July 18. Perhaps they will draw
another 200,000, perhaps they
won’t.

All I know is that I am going to
be there to see a new group
named Blind Faith, a new and a
supergroup. Also appearing with
Blind Faith will be the team of
Delaney and Bonny. Tickets are

�College football eentennial;

Bulls plan an exciting season
• 1969 marks college football's
100th year, and
the State University of Buffalo’s football Bulls have
an exciting season lined up for the centennial.

Last fall the Blue-and-White achieved ninth
place in the top ten final rankings of the Eastern
Collegiate Athletic Conference. The 1968 season was
the Bull’s most successful since 1959. as they won
their last four games and posted a season record of
7-3.

This fall they will meet four of the teams they
Massachusetts, Kent State, Holy
beat last year
Cross and Temple; two teams that beat them
Boston College and Villanova; and three new ones
Ball State. Xavier and Virginia Tech.
*

Xavier at home
The opening game on September 13 is at Ball
State in Muncie, Indiana, followed by the home
opener against Xavier. The Xavier game will have a
special name
“Old-Timers Day”
as the Bulls’
guests will be former Niagara. St. Bonaventure and
Canisius players.
After an away game with Massachusetts, the
Blue-and-White return home October 4 to meet Kent
State on fraternal civic day.
October 11 is Homecoming Day, as Buffalo
meets Dayton University. Homecoming is not when
the team comes home from its road trips, as many
people believe, but rather when the alumni come
home to their alma mater.
A trip to Holy Cross will precede the October
25 contest in War Memorial Stadium against
nationally-ranked Virginia Tech which played in two
bowl games last year. The latter is “Band Day,” with
several high school bands performing furing half
time.
The final home game is November 1, when the
Bulls meet Temple on Cheerleader’s Day. High
school cheerleaders from Western New York will
participate in half time festivities,
November 8 and 22 will be road trips for the
Bulls when they close out the season at Boston
College and Villanova.
Even with special half time programs and a good

of opponents, the most important
ingredient for a successful and exciting season is the
team and its coaches.
schedule

The 1969 Bulls lost some fine players through
graduation
Denny Mason. Ken Rutkowski, Chuck
Drankowski and Dick Ashley among others but
they gained three transfers and 20 recruits.
The transfer students who will be eligible for the
coming season are Dan Conway, Dan Yakabush and
Scott Herlan, who transferred from Syracuse
University. Coach Robert C. Denting said that Herlan
"could easily be a starter.v
As far as recruits go. Coach Denting said, "In the
past we have taken 25 a year, but we will try to
concerned with quality than quantity.
“There should be some great games," said Coach
Denting. "I see no reason why. we can't play them
close. So much of it is mental, and of course you
have the weather too."
“Our kicking game should be better. Larry Hart,
a freshman left-footer should be good, as should
Mike Constantino and Bob Carnevalc. Carnevalc does
a great job on kickoffs and field goals."
The Virginia Tech game promises to be one of
the more difficult games of the year. “At this stage
of the game, Virginia Tech is better than we are,"
said Coach Denling. ‘They bring in 60 players a year
on grants-in-aid.”
“The only good thing about Virginia Tech is
that they might look down their nose at us. We’re

their sixth game.”
“We will not point for the game. The coaching
staff will emphasize a good basic game plan, and try
to play it down instead of up. When the players arc
tense they don’t do as well.”
“I fully expect the players and coaches to hold
their own agaisnt the rest of the schedule. We’ve
done OK against Massachusetts and Kent State, and
with Villanove it’s 50-50. We didn’t play well against
them last year.”
“I don’t think there’s any reason why we
shouldn’t have a good season,” he Concluded.

Lunch money
Forsaking the man in the playground with the
gabardine trousers, white socks, suede shoes and
gangster colored (black or lavender) sport shirt, boys
eagerly flocked to drugstores and newsstands, parted
with their lunch money (ah, the sick society!) and
glared wondrously at the fetching portraits and
inspiring foldouts. Mass market nudes became
provocatively profitable for Mr. Hefner.
A few years ago, he began infesting talk shows
and spouting “his” new morality philosophy which
was little more than a rather vulgar extension and
exploitation of the old double standard. Thus,
Playboy Magazine became the pulpit of this
bedroom Billy Graham.

Lustfully grateful
With such dazzlingly erotic credentials, one
might expect a show late Saturday night entitled
“Playboy After Dark” to be a fervent devotional to
Hefner's version of the sexual revolution replete with
near nudes playfully romping about sofas and
strategically placed cushions with wicked abandon to
the pleasure and delight of the lustily grateful.
Hefner, however, docs not give us even the New

attempt at a typical variety show.

Wonder of wonders! I hope he has Dr. Leslie

casually approach the subject of archaelogy.
Recently Hef graced his party with Joan Baez,
who sang without benefit of guitar or any other
accompaniment. This was allegedly to project
simplicity and beauty but it just gave credence to the
rumor that because of her nasally asmathic voice, she
may just be Margaret Truman in drag.

Probably the liveliest guest, however, was Mr.
Warmth himself, insult-comic Don Rickies. Rickies
made his annoyance with the show painfully clear

sarcastically 'apt description of Hefner. At one point,
asked rhetorically, “who’s Charlie Personality over

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

SDS split necessary
“PLP has attacked Ho Chi Minh, the

people’s struggles for freedom against U.S.
imperialism.
“PLP, because of its positions and

anti-communist, and reactionary. It has no
place in SDS, an organization of
Revolutionary Youth. PL has also, in
principle and in practice, refused to join

has no place in SDS, an organization of
Revolutionary Youth.
“For these reasons, which have
manifested themselves in practice all over
the country, as well as this convention, and
because the groups we look to around the
world for leadership in the fight against
U.S. imperialism, including the Black
Panther Party and Brown Berets urge to do
so, SDS feels it is now necessary to rid
ourselves of the burden of allowing the
politics of PLP to exist within our
organization. PLP members and all people
who do not accept the above two
principles are no longer members of SDS.”

PL program counter-revolutionary
The organization strongly felt that the
ousting of PL from SDS must be done on a
principled basis, one that is justifiable to all
who understand the dynamics of the
American revolutionary movement today.
The Progressive Labor faction feels that
racism is used by capitalists for the purpose
of splitting the working classes which
increases the ease with which they can be
exploited. They therefore feel that racism
can be abolished in the working classes by
merely pointing out that it is to the
material advantage of the workers to unify
as a stronger coalition for better wages.
The SDS perspective of racism is that it
is a structural problem of American
capitalism
perpetuated by a variety of
rascist institutions and s&gt;that the most
effective way to destroy rascism is to
destroy these institutions. SDS feels PL is
ignoring the fact that, where it’s true that
white workers in this country arc
exploited, black workers are
super-exploited, both as workers and
what’s more, as blacks. There is the
undeniable complexity of the race element
which a class struggle would not be
necessarily able to alleviate. According to
SDS, PL does perceive that black people in
America are constantly exploited

Democratic Society could no longer allow
PL to work within the realm of its
organization.

Even after the separation, it was evident
that there existed some major differences
within the different factions of the main
body. Earlier in the year, students from
many sections of the country assembled to
write a proposal for a potential program of
what would be known as Revolutionary
Youth Movement (RYM), These people
eventually separated on certain points from
which emerged two proposals: the RYM 2
and what came to be known as the
Weatherman proposal.
Importance of workers

noted

The RYM 2 proposal stresses the
importance of the working class to the
success of a revolution in this country. It
maintains that the youth movement must
build itself into a unified fighting force
against imperialism. Assuming that youth
as a whole is oppressed under the existing
system, it is possible to unite youth from
all classes. This united youth movement
must then fight white racism, male
chauvinism, and imperialism by making
these struggles understandable to the
masses of people.

In the while movement, the struggle for
black self-determination must be realized
and equated to the fight for socialism in
the country. The RYM 2 raises many issues
but never really analyzes means by which
to implement'them. Certain valid points
which are raised need deep evaluation or
explication to make them practical.

Rudd proposal similar
The Weatherman proposal, which
seemed to garnish the most support, agrees
with RYM 2 that youth will play a major
role in making the revolution. They say,
however, that the black liberation
movement is the vanguard of the
revolution, and that blacks could make the

geo-militarily.
Another concept central to this is that
U S. imperialism, by over-extending itself
&lt;e.g., more Vietnams) will be drained of
strength and will give way for a socialist

state.

The Weatherman feels that a strong
woman's movement is imperative since the
liberation of women is tied to the success
of a revolution. Those who arc
revolutionaries must be made to
understand the total extent of women's
oppression and must learn to fight it
among their own ranks.

Erroneous concepts
The SDS position is that black people
must not be divided into false class
separations which foster the class
distinctions already inherent in our society,
but must fight united for unconditional
black liberation. PL claims that the
concept of black nationalism, of all
nationalism, is reactionary. They do not
see the blacks, regardless of “class,” as a
separate oppressed nation within the
oppressor nation. SDS regards this as error.
Regarding women’s liberation, it is
reduced to a simple question of class by
PL. As with the race question, they do not
feel that women, like blacks, are oppressed
within each class. They do not indicate an
understanding of the fact that the
oppression of women is based on structural

This faction, led by Mark Rudd, new
national secretary of SDS, also sees the
need for a revolutionary cadre parly, with
effective secrecy, but which will interact
well with mass-based groups in certain
actions. This group, referred to as the
“action faction:’ advocates the formation
of collectives and the development of an
active mass base.
Weatherman is perhaps the first
proposal attempted by a group within SDS
to analyze and evaluate ideas within its
position paper. It holds many errors and
numerous contradictions, but alsp the
potential for flexibility in practice and the
changes that will come with learning from
experience.

�A learning experience through
community affairs involvement
By Jan Doane

Spectrum

Staff Writer

A proposed urban studies pror'-m, thought of
by students, is aimed at gradually extending the
university beyond its ivy -covered libraries into the
realm of community affairs.
“The idea originated about two years ago out of
a tutorial program,” explained Tracy Cottone,
student chairman of the program. “Students in this
program felt they were learning much more from
actual contact with the people of the community
than they were from regular academic courses.”

Social Sciences and Administration officially
approved an Urban Studies major leading to a
degree. However making the program operational
met with some difficulty.
Some faculty members have been critical of the

Community reaction encouraging
Along these lines, two courses were initiated this
fall under the Urban Studies Program City Course
213 which emphasized independentresearch of such
urban problems as white racism; and City Course
214 which was geared towards action arid actually
applying the principles learned.

people accept the idealogy of punishment and are
surprised they only work that amount of time,” says
Mr. Keegan. “But in my talks with the inmates, it
was clear that many of them feel they should have
the freedom to choose whether or not they wish to
work. The rationalization is that they are paying
their keep, but in reality, they are performing an
economic function for Erie County, and that
naturally will be the hardest thing to change.”
Another related “discussion point" at the prison
is the freedom to get decent wages for the work that
is done. The others cited by Mr. Keegan are:
freedom for the inmates to develop in a real
rehabilitation program geared to their needs;
freedom to communicate freely without censorship;
freedom to take courses in black history (50% of the
inmates at the penitentiary are black); freedom to
receive proper medical attention, and freedom to
work on these reforms without fear of reprisals.

Mr. Keegan says: “1 came at these problems
from a philosophical background. They came at
them from living the reality of exploitation, living in
an atmosphere of daily violence. Here at the
University, you have to convince people. Principles
have got to be made to come alive. There, the
principles are alive in daily action."
Though Mr. Keegan says there is a “good
underground” at the prison, he cites fear of reprisals,
and the generally short-time sentences of the inmates
as real obstacles to internal reform. “If you mess
around, you lose your ‘good time’.” If you mess
around even more, you go to solitary. This keeps the
guys in line."
Terry Keegan is out of jail now, pending his
appeal, but he says he cannot forget the others who
arc still there, those who supposedly will return to
society one day “rehabilitated” by the prison

Terry Keegan was sent to jail last week to serve
60 days for criminal miscTiief
a charge resulting
from the March 19 demonstration downtown against
the sentencing of draft-resistcr, Bruce Beyer. City
Court Judge Thomas Ryan, after a long speech on
Mr, Keegan's background and life style, did not free
the defendenl on bail pending appeal as is usually
the custom, but sent him right to the Erie County
Penitentiary. "I didn't even have a toothbrush,” said
Terry.
Last Thursday, Mr. Keegan was released from
prison to await the results of his appeal. He has
brought with him some observations on the local
prison system.
He tells of the 37-ycar old black man, who was
“delirious, partially hysterical, uncoordinated and
shaking all over, a victim of the DT’s" even as they
waited in the downtown jail for the trip to the
penitentiary. “They’ll take good care of him there,”
a guard said, but at the penitentiary, he collapsed
again in the showers. Mr Keegan helped him up. The
next morning he was dead.
Mr. Keegan has some doubts about how "good”

I want to commend Mr. Mattern for his very
lucid style of reviewing I am Curious (Yellow). To
any sophisticated reader it is evident that the writer
aptly conveyed the tone of the film by capturing the
essence of the work. His honest observations were
delightful to read as a welcome change from the
usual insinuating cutesy drivel filling the arts review

pages of many of our more widely read papers. It is
also encouraging to see The Spectrum print the
reviewer uncensored in a time in our nation's history
when there are very visible tendencies toward
repression socially as well as politically.
M.D.S

That was a curious review
To the editor.
I Am Furious (very red). For some weeks I have
seen Mr. Robert Mattern’s name on your masthead
and I have wondered just what it was that he did at
The Spectrum. I know now what it is that he does
and I wish he would not do it.
Mr. Mattern is obviously a very able and
perceptive critic, yet I found his review of I Am
Curious (Yellow) written in the most curious type of
taste. His utilization of some rather obnoxious
obscenities (please Che proponents, don’t hit me
with: “The only obscenity is censorhsip,” because
that is a very overused excuse for pornography and
means very little) pulled the quality of what could
and would have been a*n exceptionally perceptive
piece down into the very same tastelessness that he
accuses the movie of proliferating.

realize that Mr. Mattern is apparently under
the impression that use of such language emphacizes
and underscores the information that he is
attempting to impart and that it is used as a
metaphor for the movie. Normally, this could hold,
but when there is a question of taste, propriety and
responsibility involved, these must be considered
before artistic amenities.
Use of these unfortunate terms shows not only
disgust and disrespect for the movie that he is
speaking of but also for his readers. Here is the rub,
as it were. What is almost always obscured in cases of
this sort (i.e. the infamous Smothers Brother bad
boy act) is that journalistic responsibility has to be
defined and adhered to. Comments of this type,
however well-intentioned are not appropriate.
A.D

But, we love you always
and you will live an eternity.
Dear Cousin, pray for us all.
Peace be yours

the screenplay, must have studied Che’s diary
carefully. The part of the film dealing with Che’s 1 I
months in Bolivia is liberally sprinkled with direct
quotes from the diary. But these quotes are taken
completely out of context and are presented against
a carefully contrived background which has
absolutely nothing in common with Che’s own
description of the Boliviap situation.
Omar Sharif, as Che, comes over at times as a
theorist, at times as a tactician, and at times as a
provocateur, but always as cold-blooded, calculating,
and mcphistophelean.
Jack Palance, as Fidel, comes oyer as a neurotic,

alcoholic, lecherous fool who, form the battle of La
Plata onward, is gradually brought under Che’s
domination until, at the time fo the missile crisis he
is nothing more than Che’s puppet.

movie is a subjective work of art, and screenwriters
are certainly under no obligation to write an
historically accurate biography.
But what is disturbing about this case is
that the movie appears to be imitating the
documentary technique. Many of the n important
scenes appear to be actual newsreel footage, and the
film does stick remarkably close to the facts in many
cases. It only distorts those facts which contribute to
the images of the personalities of Che and Fidel.
The movie barely mentions in passing such
topics as imperialism, clasjs struggle, repression, and
exploitation. It is apparently attempting to create
the impression that the entire phenomenon of
revolution in Latin America can be explained in

"Can lleironymus Merkin Ever Forget Mercy

Polyester Poonlang saves VVupcr Stud Merkin from
the exhaustive entantlemcnts of Good Time Eddie'
Filth’s husty bedroom brigade, which has to its
credit the most dazzling display of I) cups ever
assembled and fit onto one screen at any tune.
"Merkin" is Anthony Newley's fortieth year
congratulatory pal on the rear to Anthony Newley; a
way of saying, "thanks, I couldn't have done it
without me.” After searching for his identity,
unhappily moving from success to success, he finally
made it, achieving a swollen ego which created a
movie that appeared to have been stuffed in a
garbage disposal only to be thrown up again as
rejected sewage.

Dirty old man
Newley is a talented performer a fact not made
obvious by the film. In fact, he pulb'd a Jerry Lewis;
he wrote, starred, directed and narrated this toilet
flushing Hollywood orgy and lent it all the finesse of
a dirty old man. His songs were good, but even the
musical sequences couldn't redeem this mess.
On the other hand, Newley’s physical attributes
were quite viewable. He was constantly losing his
pants and his bedroom backside manner was a bore,
as were most of the women who exhibited their
extraordinary intellectual abilities from the
wonderful world of silicone down to the point of

ridiculousness.

Adolescant Sharif
Merkin as Newley, portrayed by Newley, was

Page four The Spectrum Thursday. July 3. 1969

supposed to have been Newley’s alter ego.
Unfortunately, he seemed a bit confused, and played
the part like an adolescant Omar Sharif.
The sfory line is quite simple; there isn’t one. It
begins nowhere and ends nowhere. Merkin is only
concerned with where he is going and how he got
there, using women
as mere vehicles of
passion.
never loving them, only making them.
Hddie Filth, played by an embarassed Milton
Berle. stole the only good line in the show as he slid
to a new low as Merkin’s pimp, introducing-him to
the glorious life of sleeping with something other
than a blanket.
George Jessel was a walking funeral, as Presence,
who constantly reminded Merkin that his life
insurance was up for renewal, jessel would have been
better if he kept his mouth shut and didn't have to
recite stale old vaudevillian jokes. ; . he could have
played Captain Kangaroo and gotten more laughs.

Cradle robber
Connie Kresge played the lovable Mercy often
horizontally
the younger girl who was stolen from
the cradle by Merkin. She had to share him with
Polyester (Joan Collins Newley) who was Merkin's
wife, and mother his one and one half children,
played by his children.

It is useless to go into the graphic details of each
scene. To say the least, it was more porno than art,
and the art bordered on censorship. If one wants to
waste money and have a boring time, a triple feature
set of Walt Disney flicks may be better.

joyful electric excitement.

mood ot the evening

was

set by the lengthy opening by the

Flames, Brown’s distinctive,
horn-dominated, hand-picked
band. The 12 Flames were loose
and relaxed, and appeared to have
as much fun as anyone else in the
auditorium.
Marva Whitney’s appearance
was too brief, but she sang very
well and managed to develop a
good rapport with the crowd. The
tall, slender singer has a sharp
piercing voice and should take her
place with Aretha Franklin and
Dionne Warwick as one of the top
black female vocalists when she
comes out with some original
releases.
‘Say it loud’
The crowd came, however, to
see Brown, and he didn’t let them
down. The confident, constantly
moving performer jumped right
into his first short act “Say it

Loud; I’m Black and I’m Proud,”
and immediately had the crowd
dancing, clapping and singing
along.

His much longer second set
included most of ‘The King’s’ long
list of hits, including Cold Sweat,
I’ve Got That Feeling and This is a
Man’s World. His booming voice,
flashy, expressive dancing and
toy-like,_h,andling of the
microphone had the crowd
roaring.

Just before ending the show,
Brown went through his famous

To the crowd’s delight, he
threw off the robe each time, and
stormed back to the microphone

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

60 days for criminal
mischief and a heard
by Done Klein

The imprisonment of Terry Keegan for
participation in a demonstration during the
trial of the Buffalo Nine comes as another
episode in what his attorney termed a
“reactionary repressive wave of paranoia
now sweeping this nation.”
Mr. Keegan was sentenced to 60 days in
the Erie County Penitentiary, 25 miles
outside of Buffalo, for “criminal mischief”
in the first degree namely, destruction of
the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in
Lafayette Square resulting from the
burning of an effigy of Federal Judge John
Curtin, the judge who presided over the
Buffalo Nine trial and sentenced Bruce
Beyer to three years in prison.
Paul Dominick was tried at the same
time as Mr. Keegan
was found guilty of
using a bullhorn illegally, and was fined
$150. Judge Thomas Ryan refused to
release Mr. Keegan pending his appeal and
ordered him to begin serving sentence
-

immediately.

Ordered to cut hair
Mr.

Willard Myers, Mr. Keegan’s
that “we expect to have

attorney, said

Terry out by Wednesday,” upon filing a
notice of appeal and a show-cause order. A
friend of Sir Keegan’s described the
judge’s refusal to release him after the trial
as “completely shocking.”
—In jail, Mr. Keegan’s hair was cut, his
beard shaved and he was ordered to
surrender- an anthology of stories he had
with him. But, apart from not being
allowed' to read, he said that he was “all
right.”
Mr. Keegan had initially been charged
with resisting arrest and with burning the
effigy (in violation of a city ordinance), as
well as with destroying the monument, but
these were dropped. According to
witnesses, “Terry never touched the
effigy.”
As in the Buffalo Nine trial, the only
“proof” the prosecution had of Mr.
Keegan’s guilt was the testimony of
policemen which was contradicted by films
and slides shown by the defense. The
police claimed that there were two fires,
that Mr. Dominick threw signs onto them,
that Mr. Keegan was a leader in that
demonstration, and that Mr. Keegan lit the

Dean Ketter interview

A ‘troublemaker’ talks
on university planning
by Rod Gere
Campus Cdilor

Lack of centralized planning for the Amherst
in planning
the surrounding community which will be created by
the impact of the new campus were cited by Robert
L. Ketter Monday as reasons for the timing of his
resignation as vice president for Facilities Planning.
“I resigned for a number of reasons,” Dr. Ketter
said. “When I accepted the job 1 said it would be for
three to five years, through the first stage. That first
phase is now done.
“I probably wouldn't be leaving yet if it weren’t
for other problems,” he continued. “I’m in-product
oriented. I like to see the results of my endeavors.
However, I am convinced that Buffalo is not the
master of its own destiny.
“The Amherst campus is a gigantic project and
so many agencies have a bearing on it. There are
problems involving state highways and problems
involving water control. Everybody concedes rapid
transit is necessary, but the Niagara Frontier Transit
Authority is the agency that must refer the problem
to the state,” Dr. Ketter said.
Campus is a pawn
Terming the situation “absolutely stupid” Dr.
Ketter contended that there has “never been a
project of this size undertaken with no one agency
to oversee it. In this situation you have so many
agencies, each with their own special interests and

didn’t care personally if he has a scat on that body.
“I do believe that the University should have
more representation on that body. Since it Is the
impact of the new campus that is generating the
need for planning, it would be stupid not to have an
input of university thinking on the subject,” he said.
‘Paradise goofed'
According to Dr. Ketter, a university that has a
piece of property is usually concerned with
developing that land and nothing else. “Around most
universities you find slums, and hot dog stands. Very
seldom do you find facilities that relate to the
university. You don’t find planning for such things
as second-hand bookstores, shopping plazas, and
co-op housing developments.
“We were presented

the opportunity to
construct the major educational project in the world
and to develop the community around it. I hope it
has not been totally lost. If I were to write a story

about this,. I would call it ‘Paradise Goofed,’ Dr.
Ketter said.
Dr. Ketter declined to speculate on who his
successor would be. When questioned whether he
would have a role in this selection he replied: “I may
be asked but I have no reason to believe that I will.
You may have gathered by now that I’m a
troublemaker.”
He envisioned his office as “going from the role
of a proposer to that of questioning what others
propose. Some people can work very effectively in
that role, but I’m not one of them.”

“Something might be written to show that you don ’I plan a university
the same way you plan a county jail.
”

“The campus is a pawn in inter-agency disputes.
I have no confidence that the State University
Construction Fund understands the educational
implications of its actions. They are very good at
getting contractors, but they don’t understand the
effects of what they do. I batted my head against the
wall for two years and that’s enough,” Dr. Ketter
said.
Dr. Ketter called meaningful interaction with
state agencies “virtually impossible.” He said these
agencies “wanted us as a public relations agent, not
as a full partner.”
When asked about a recent Courier Express
report that he was dismayed because President
Meyerson had failed to get him a seat on John
Galvin’s 30-man Urban Development Corp., which is
investigating development of the land surrounding
the Amherst campus site. Dr. Ketter said that he

To teach, do research
Dr. Ketter plans to devote more time to
teaching in the Civil Engineering Department and to
working on two books he has been preparing. “I’ve
never stopped teaching,” he said. “I don’t believe a
person should be in the university unless he does do
teaching and research.”
Dr. Ketter indicated that he might write a book
on university planning. “I have accummulated a
great deal of information on how a university might
be developed. Somebody might profit on what we’ve
learned. Something might be written to show that
you don’t plan a university the same way you plan a
county jail,” he said.
Working with the Comprehensive Health
Council of Western New York will also occupy a
larger share of Dr. Ketter’s time. He will be involved
in rating hospital’s according to cost.

The teacher’s room in high school was the one
place completely off limits to students. It was that
stuffy mysterious little room tucked away in a
corner of. the building where all the teachers would
rush on their breaks, fumbling for cigarettes.
No one really knew what went on in there, but
it was generally accepted that the room served as
some sort of impromptu noncom headquarter for
the ‘other’ side in the teacher-student war. It was
there, we all knew, that the latest tortures and
strategies were plotted.
I remember the one time I sneaked a look inside
the Room while delivering a Very Important Note to
a history teacher. I saw vaguely familiar, shadowy
figures huddled in small groups around the room’s
ashtrays, hand holding coffee cups from an unseen
coffee urn.
However, the rooms now serve as much as a
respite from the principal as from the students, and I
was particularly heartened by reports several weeks
ago that at last the teachers were plotting against the
principals, instead of the students.

Budget cuts

originally anticipated.
The plan, however, has met stiff opposition

from the local teachers. BFT officials say that the
modest pay increase (averaging S700, with beginning
pay going up $200) and the continuation of present
school programs are the acceptable minimum. The
Board of Education will meet them halfway with the
deficit-budget plan, but this still represents a cut in
the city’s educational expenditures.
At this point it is unclear just how the stalemate
might be resolved, but several possibilities are
apparent.
The Board could: revise its operating budget,
and allow for the full negotiated wage package as
well as the continuation of present programs. This
would send the budget more than $8 million into the
red, with the ultimate burden being the state’s. This
is what the teachers are saying they will now accept
as a minimal condition for their return to work in
the fall.
Go ahead with its halfway deficit-budget plan,
sinking the budget perhaps $3 million into the red, a
deficit more acceptable to state and local fiscal
planners. The BFT has labeled this “not acceptable.”
Revise its halfway deficit-budget plan, to allow
for a similar $3 million deficit, but completely
finance continuation of educational programs, like
bussing and tutoring, while putting off the teacher
pay issue for an entire year.
Revise in another way its halfway deficit-budget
plan, to allow for a similar $3 million deficit, but
considerably cut educational programs, while
granting the teachers their full pay package.
The last two alternatives would clearly tell the
local community which is more important to the
funding for educational programs, or

Apparently the incident most responsible for
turning school coffee klatsches into politicalizing
cells was the Board of Education’s decision to accept
the reality of the Buffalo Common Council’s $8.3
million budget cut.
School delegates of the Buffalo Teachers’
Federation have been circulating questionnaires
among teachers in the city, asking them if they will:
1) join picket lines in a September “withdrawal of
services” if the drastic school budget cut is approved;
2) honor the picket lines, even though they don’t
fully support the “withdrawal” or 3) teach, no
matter what.

‘Extension 9 broadcast live
tonight at midnight picnic
by Mike Friedman

Spectrum Stiff Writer
As listeners to the late

night

program already
know, tonight is the night of the
mid-night picnic. Jim Santella,
host of Extension, to be broadcast
live from the picnic tonight, sees
the event as an integral part of his
WBFO

radio

bag.

——

Santella’s bag is
talking to people. And playing the

And

Jim

kind of music he likes, and he
hopes they like. He plays what he
calls contemporary music. He
doesn’t like labels on music, and
he plays all kinds, with an
emphasis on rock. And, of course,
he talks.
Radio, the intimate medium,
allows him to talk to people
instead of to an audience. On his
show he can and does rap about
anything, from parking tickets on
campus to the plight of the fat
man, to the role of the mayor of
Toronto in banning rock music
from that city.

Commercial radioafraid

-Hsiang

Mr. Santella wants to balance
some of the distortion that people
get from the press and commercial
to use his show as
broadcasting
a sounding board.

This is
Gregory—
Peck.
This x-ray
was taken by
the Chief of Security Forces
of the People’s Republic of China

In the future, he would like to
have as guests on his show such
personages as Michael Amico of
the Buffalo Narcotics Squad, and
Mrs. Alfreda W. Slominski, the
Republican candidate for mayor
of the Queen City. The object of
having them on his show would
not be to subject them to ridicule,
as many would assume, but for
information and edification of the
listening audience.
Jim Santella is essentially in
love with radio, but not the way
it’s heard on most stations.
“Commercial radio is afraid,” he
says, “they don’t want to lose
their listeners or their
advertisers.”
He feels the establishment is
largely responsible for keeping
mediocrity on the airwaves. “Any
executive who’s making his
$50,000 a year is not going to be
happy to see much change,” he

explains.
To enlighten and educate

just to complain, but

not

to

“That’s what educational radio
is
commercial radio hinders
education. It panders to the
lowest' mentality of the audience
and assumes they have no taste.
Then they program down to that
level.”
—

But he doesn’t think
commercial radio is all bad. It still
affords an opportunity to talk to,
instead of at people. “One of the
things I liked at WYSL was that
once I had listeners send in
string,” he rambled, “and I still
have the ball of string.”
By doing this, Jim got a visual
image of his people
a brightly
—

colored audience ball. He also has
a collection of all the mail he
received there, and encourages
hisExtension listeners to send in
cards, letters and string.

When asked about his former
show on WYSL-PM, he said it was Tonal kaleidoscope
more structured than the I to 3
Jim wants to go into radio as a
a.m. Extension. He couldn’t play living, “but I wouldn't like It if it
what he wanted. For example, were just a format show, like a
“The Ballad of John and Yoke” top 40 thing. I’m not sure what
was banned from WYSL because I’d like to do in radio. I like the
of references to Christ and idea of talking to people instead

of an audience.”
The bearded bard of Baird Hall

He does several things on the
much. WBFO allows him to be air that you don’t hear elsewhere
more meaningful and topical, on your radio
dial. He reads
‘like to comment on society
romantic poetry over soft music,
mixes parts of records to make a
tonal kaleidoscope, and gels
people on his show who have
something to say besides inanities.

NOW AT POPULAR

Jim Santella remains a staunch
defender of rock music. “One of
the reasons for the popularity of
rock music is that it’s the music of
young people
those who think
young." He explains that society
is becoming youth-oriented, and
the young have tremendous
influence. It used to be, he says,
that children would emulate their
parents, but now the old folks
copy the kids. “It’s ridiculous
seeing all these old people hung
up on this under 30 thing."
-

Mr. Santella feels rock is what’s
happening now, because ‘it gets
down to the nitty-gritty. None of
that pioon-June-spoon business. A
lot of rock players aspire to play
jazz, thinking it’s more
sophisticated, and a lot of jazz
musicians play rock
like Blood,
Sweat and Tears, but their music
sounds like it’s welded together,
not integral. But he doesn’t look
down on jazz, either in addition

Social commentary ridiculous

Feeling a bit guilty about these wonders of the
human body, Sjoman attempts to adapt to the
notion
of respectability and
nudity-when-it-helps-the-story by pretending the
movie is something it isn’t. The social commentary is
ridiculous; the evident imitations of Godard’s
film-making techniques fail miserably.
The only outcome is an incredibly funny series
of attempts to be sophisticated and avante-garde. All
of this at the expense of sex, film-making and the
intelligence of the audience.

It is unfortunate that the concept of decency is
so inferior a work. Unless critics and
audiences, generally as nervous about free expression
as free love, can only relate to an obvious piece of

I have concentrated on two main themes, both
of which reflect not only Sweden but the world
situation right now. One theme is class society injustices created by class structure injustices that
in many parts of the world are done away with only
by violence. The other theme is non-violcnce.e . .
The statement of Volgot Sjoman regarding his
most recent film, / Am Curious /Yellow), would
suggest a serious undertaking, a panorama of endless
political dimensions. In reality, however, the film’s
main conccrmrare exhibitionism and imitation.
The movie opens with a fat, unaesthetic and
quite stupid young lady interviewing people on the
street regarding their concept of class structure in
Sweden. Froth this point on the movie is boring.
Lena proceeds to envy Dr. Martin Luther King,
whose picture is flashed occasionally (that’s class),
fuck her equally unattractive lover in a variety of
positions and settings (that’s exciting), and
phantasizc scenes of murder and castration (that’s
intensely psychological), Voila

3199 MAIN STREET

editor

Illustrated, performed
Modern dancers from New York City, Buffalo,
and Toronto will be featured in an informal
concert-lecture program tonight at 9:00 p.m. in
Baird Mall.
Accompanying the lecture will be a
demonstration of modern dance technique. Rod
Rogers and Barbara Rowan, both from New York
City, will give the lecture.
The talk and demonstration will be drawn from
Mr. Rogers' repertoire, with special emphasis on
what the American black is doing in, modern dance.
Both Miss Rowan and Mr. Rogers are blacks.
“Insectaneous,” a fun piece of work based on a
score by Lejarin Hiller, Director of the Creative
Associates, will be performed by Billie Kirpich, State
University of Buffalo’s head of the Dance
Department, and Don Himes, founder of.the young
and renowned Dance Group of Canada.
In this piece, Mr. Himes is an “ant-like creature,
I suppose,” while Miss Kirpich is “more spidery.”
Several other dancers will aid in the
demonstration. Three of these are from Miss
Kirpich’s own workshop: Lois Welk, Lynn Walker,
and Charles Lidge, while the fourth, James Austen, is
a member of New Dance Group.
Local specialists
The technical director, Garry Muller, and the
electronics specialist, Lynn Rulsuon, are from the
Buffalo area.

There will be a touch of Italy. Rod Rogers, who
was the first modern dancer to be invited to
participate in an anti-poverty program, has just
returned from the Spolata Arts Festival in Spolata,
Italy, There, his Lower East Side group performed
alongside some of the biggest names in the art world.

Professional workshop
Since Mr. Rogers was invited to join
Mobilization for Youth, he has transformed the
roughly trained New York group into one with a
fresh and professional approach.
The concert grew naturally from the Second
Annual Summer Workshop given by Miss Kirpich.
Both she and invited professionals tyrld the
workshop each summer for those interested in
teaching modem dance.
“Insectaneous” was created out of Miss
Kirpich’s desire to “do a new dance, to work with
Don, and to keep up the Buffalo-Toronto
interchange.”

New Dance Group of Canada, under the
direction of Don Himes, recently put together an
“Evening of Dance” with the talented Billie Kirpich
and her workshop.
The informality of this latest effort arose out of
the genius of its creators. It is an effort, in the words
of Miss Kirpich, “to bring the audience closer to*us.”
The price of “coming closer” is free.

�Tom Rlish:

Making music in Toronto
Tom Rush is making music in Toronto again. He
will be at The Riverboat on Yorkville near Avenue
Road tonight through Sunday. All things are relative,
especially taste in music, but 1 humbly submit that
the man is a joy to watch and listen to.
There is a line running around in my head, and
it feels like Dylan by way of Baez but I may be
wrong as I am so Often. It is a couplet that goes at
least approximately like this: “This gentleness now.
which you can’t help but show...”
In a world in which a great many people insist
on using music as a battering ram, Rush is using
another tactic entirely.
There exists a small hardy band of people
producing what might be called “Head Blues," or
perhaps “Mind Blues” would be better considering
the connotations that head is developing.
Joni Mitchell, (and if you haven’t gotten her
second album yet you are only cheating yourself),
Fred Nell, Eric Anderson’s early style, which he may
now drift back to, some of Tom Paxtons’ quiet
things, and such relative unknowns as James Taylor
are names which come to mind that are responsible
for a cerebral, but in no ways less powerful
emotionally for that reason, form of music.
It tends to be relatively quiet ,but extremely
powerful. Miss Mitchell’s Circle Game, Urge for
Going, and Shadow Dream Song, Paxtons’ Morning
Again, Taylors’ Sunshine, Sunshine, and Rush’s own
No Regrets, may point out to some of you the kind
of song 1 am trying to talk of.

Mind musk
It is music which gets you into the gut through
the mind, and stays with you in both places.
This essentially has become Rush’s great
strength. He does the up-tempo numbers still, and a
delight they are. But they are fun things, a necessary
release, to keep an audience from feeling that this is
more than great entertainment.

People get uptight about profound emotional
experiences in public, and I would strongly suspect
that if Rush ever strung together a quiet set, made
up of only mind blues, he would scare a hell of a lot
of his audience out of their alleged minds.
There is an album called “Grey Life” by Val
Stoecklein which fails because that singer falls off
the edge of pathos into self pity. Rush never does
this. He sings from his strength.

Like all of us. he is bemused, confused, and
somewhat hassled. But he knows who he is. or at
least in what direction he thinks he can find this out.
and he seems to be happy as he goes-on his way.
It is no surprise that he does Joni Mitchell’s
songs so well. He has fought the fight her songs talk
about, the struggle to accept yourself and life, and
won. Like few others that I know of. he seems to
have retained his humanity while doing so. and he
manages to project this.
Joni's grin
The only thing in my limited experience that
even comes close to turning on an audience the way
he does is a certain grin which Joni Mitchell used to
have, and I hope still does, that exposes what, from
her album covers, she considers an inordinate
amount of teeth. That grin turns her from a pretty
girl into a beautiful person.
Rush doesn't have such a specific attribute. He
is just there. You should be too, because he can lake
you with him and bring you back a little more alive.
What you really should do is sit through all nine
sets or so this weekend and rush (sorry! couldn’t
help it) out and buy the album. (Any album of his is
good but “Circle Game,” his last, is a fine, fine thing,
as previously noted in these pages.)

Courtyard Theatre;

Now Rosemary is the baby
Hidden on a backstreet on the west side is a real
live acting troupe, made up of people who really
want to act. And they can.
Director Guy Griffis has launched the group in
the little (80 seat) Courtyard Theater with two one
act plays by Molly Kazan, “Rosemary,” and “The

Alligators.”
“Rosemary,” the story of a husband and wife
vaudeville team adjusting their formerly footloose
showbiz life to accomodate their first bom, begins
slowly but rolics home a winner. (No, Rosemary is a
baby, and she bears little resemblance to Mia
Farrow.)

Stewart Roth is amusing and convincing in his
role as the ermanently infantile husband. Eleanor
Eastman is acceptable in the comedy parts of her
role as his wife, although her emotional
schizophrenia is often unconvincing.

Klatch and overacts
Georgia Hester, who seems to be the most
promising thespian in this theater, plays her role of
the unemancipated wife in search of a coffee-klatch
extremely well. Scott Edmonds is amusing as her
immigrant husband, but he overacts the part.
“The Alligators” is a sort of behind-the-scenes at
“Bonnie and Clyde.” Stewart Roth if the director
trying to lace his proposed biographical gangster
flick with psychological insight and sociological
causation by interviewing the late hood’s wife

(Georgia Hester.) She, however, would rather
castrate a personal enemy than castigate society.

Gum-snapping flapper
Miss Hester is the standout of the play. Kathy
Herkelmann is good as the gum-snapping Hollywood
starlet, but Roth underacts in his role and Scott
Edmonds is stiffly inept as a butler who is supposed
to be more than a dumbwaiter.
Both plays are fun. The unique atmosphere of
both the open-backed Courtyard Theater at 30 Essex
St. and the low box office charge are refreshing.
Mr. Griffis has done a commendable job with his
troupe in the last year; in the future his work for the
Ashford Hollow Foundation (sponsors) of the
theater) will hopefully expand into a 400 acre
sculpture park at Ashford Hollow.
30 strong and spirited
There are about thiry men and women in his
acting school now, and they all double as stage crew,
promotion staff and production crew.
The two plays will continue running Wednesday
through Sunday nights at 8:30, for an indefinite
period, probably through July.
The group has terrific spirit and excellent
potential. Their biggest problem right now is
publicity, so everybody spread the word; the theater
is alive and hiding out on the west side.

�Refractions
by Rick Schwab

Those 22 Republican congressmen who took time off in May
was it seven days? to visit some 40 college campuses, came up with
some recommendations which shouldn’t surprise many of us. Except
perhaps if we felt they might never understand if all.
-

—

The main recommendations included a plea for no repressive
they’re
legislation. A good idea, but they gave the wrong reason
afraid that such legislation will play into the hands of campus
revolutionaries. Which might happen. But nobody was talking about
justice, or equality. Repressive legislation is simply bad because it
would play into the hands of revolutionaries. Yeah man.
-

Another recommendation was to lower the voting age

representative that one-day last December when summoned to New
York City for the purpose of coming up with programs that would
involve students in state government.
-

eoMnee.

So give us Vote 18 already. But talk about hypocrisy. How many
times have we been told by politicals, yeah man 1 favor Vote 18. And
how consistent the response has been in the state legislature year after
year. Consistent, man

The group also recommended that the President establish a
temporary commission On higher education. Now commissions are nice
things. The Kerner Commission Report and the Walker Report on civil
disorders in the nation’s ghettos and in Chicago at the time of the
Democratic National Convention pointed to many problems and
causes and offered some solutions. Lyndon Johnson ignored both
reports, as did Congress, as will Nixon, who speaks glibly of black
capitalism while interest rates soar out of the reach of all small
businessmen, black and white.
A report issued last week by Eisenhower’s group said that good
old J. Edgar Hoover inspires in cops across the land the idea that all

protesters are to be loathed, because they’re all “Communists.” The
beating heads is a simple step for a cop
next step beyond loathing
to lake, given J. Edgar’s premise. Ah wclf it’s a violent society.
J. Edgar Hoover, with all due respect, as they say, should take
Ramsey Clark’s invitation and step down. But Nixon loves him.
Commissions are created to write reports which somehow go
unheeded. But as the Republican report noted, students feel our
priorities are all out of whack.
The Congressmen even called for draft reform. To give this piece
some scope let me put in a plug for the congressmen, who did, I think,
take seriously their tasks of gaining information and understanding
problems facing higher education. And without the usual fanfare of
such junkets they pay for it out of their own pockets! They’ll make

it back somehow, though.

And to give this piece final perspective. I’ll relate how New York
Congressman, James F. Hastings (R-Allegheny), one of the college
junketeers, calls for no repressive measures out of one side of his
mouth, and spews praise for Father Rcdlord’s action in banning SDS
from Bonavcnturc out of the other side.
But as my colleague would say: “Who cares?”

About financial finesse
To the editor.
The article on the scholarship and loan situation for
New York State students which appeared irr the last issue
of The Spectrum was very enlightening. It is truly
amazing how education gets cut when this country can
contemplate spending billions on a missile defense
system that will probably be obsolete the day it’s
installed; send 30 Congressmen on a junket to Paris to
look over the wares at an Air Show exhibit, andshell out
astronomical sums to get a "man on the moon by 1970.
If 1 remember right. New York is supposed to be the

the ultra-progressive view toward higher
education. Supposedly.
A 7% interest rate on student loans is no bargain,
and the Regents Scholarship system reform is not
especially bright. “Any student whose family’s net
income is above S20.000 will receive no cash award.”
Tremendous. What Happens to the seventh college-bound
kid in such an allegedly well-off family, or the student
whose parents are lucky enough to earn S20;000 and
have SI 2.000 in yearly medical bills?
Granted perhaps, there should be a more equitable
system for distributing the monies (Rockefeller’s kid
certainly doesn’t need the blanket scholar incentive
award), but one would think the state legislators could
solve the problem with at least a little of the financial
finesse they so ably apply to their own pay-hike juggling.

ostensibly because it was cheaper, but we wll know
it was to avoid the city’s dirt and decay.
But the rats beat them to it.
Amherst residents in the Ellicott Creek area,
near the site of the new campus, are spending a
summer battling hordes of rats and mosquitos which
now infest the swampy area.
The Amherst Bee local weekly newspaper,
reported last week that “much too friendly rats and
mosquitos” are making the area’s “backyards and
gardens uninhabitable.”
Mrs. Samuel Summe, a student at the
University, lives in the area. After seeking assistance
from county health officials in her battle with the
rats in a nearby vacant lot (last winter dozens of
them sneaked into her garage and completely
demolished the interior of her car while she and her

Alice Cooper:

CHRIST IS COMING AGAIN
"Behold He cometh with clouds; and
shall see Him, and they also
which pierced Him; and all kindreds of
the earth shall wail because of Him."
-Rev. 1:7

An experience in total sound
Friday evening in the Fillmore Room, a
small but energized audience experienced
the total sound of Alice Cooper.
This • group, financially supported by
Frank Zappa, appeared at first glance as
too loud, over-distorted, and a creation
solely for commercial purposes
considering all the “hip” lights, clothes and
action on stage.
Alice, Glen, Dennis, Michael, Neal and
Charlie (the light organist) looked like
another plastic “dynamite” Blue-cheerish
group.
The occult charms, the black knight, the
warrior' king, the poet, the artist and the
witch all added up to a big put-on. Alice
Cooper is honesty and that is all.
The purpose of Alice Cooper was not to
show how mystical they were, how groovy
they moved or how nifty their clothes
—

were.

In an interview after the performance,
every member of the group implied that all
they are is what has influenced their lives
noisy, neon-flickering, electronic,
super-explosive city, and their own middle
class backgrounds in the suburbs and at
college.

It will not be seen just that way again.

pressures changed.

Michael Bruce probably expressed their
growth when he commented on blues.
Sure, he likes the blues, he had played
them. But he is not a member of a culture
that has to sing the blues. It would be fake
and a rut to just play blues, because they
are members of a social order that lives for
fun and affluency. This is not good or bad,
it simply is.
Honest art
They are as electronic and as wild as
they live, and their power will continue.
Truly, they are a “reflection” as they all
said, of what they see at that time, what
they feel like, what the crowd feels like
and what Alice Cooper feel and write

May I suggest grabbing Alice Cooper’s

lyrics, are there and it is a surprise package
that, like the group, cannot be compared
but can be appreciated.
Honest Alice!
Ken Morphy

Alice is life
The myriad of flashing lights, the
tremendous energy put forth by the
pounding drummer, Neal Smith, Dennis
Dunaway on bass, and Michael Bruce and
Glen Buxton, the madmen of the guitars,
were ail joined together as one would press
together all the sights and sounds of life
into a thunder that is culminated by the
lyrics of Alice.
They were all agreed concerning the fact
that their way of expressing themselves was
an art form. Their clothes, the
synchronized lighting, and the throbbing
orgasmic music all went together to
comprise it. Alice and his group are what
they are to show art, and the experiencing
of all art forms as a total unit of terrific
energy, such as was exhibited Friday night.

They bring society out in the open,

humans who change into true bolts of

Despite all the waiting, the bad

Cooper was a purposeful, honest show. It
was an experience not to be heard again. If
you missed it, you missed part of yourself

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Scholarship woes

|A V

It won't mst $1.3 billion, but...

Amherst will not be completed on schedule
Skyrocketing costs of materials and
labor plus delays in the start, of
construction pending the integration of the
work force will boost the projected cost of
the Amherst campus to a figure
considerably higher than that originally
anticipated. However, Robert L. Ketter,
Vice-President for Facilities and Planning,
denies that the increase will be as much as
the $1.3 billion cited in The Courier
Express.
The State University Construction Fund
has declared a moratorium been party to
any group that has.” He went on to
speculate that the reporter who broke the
story about
the doubling of the

construction cost to $1.3 billion may ahve
developed his own figure based on the
statement by Dr. Ketter that a dollar
would buy half as much construction in
1975 as it would in 1968. Apparently the
a ceiling for
$650 million figure
expenditures until 1975, and not an actual
cost estimate for work up to that year
was then multiplied by two to arrive at the
—

-

new projection.

New date;

1978

Though the mounting costs and delays

have made it clear that $650 million will
be enough to finish the Amherst
construction, it was never necessarily
meant to cover all of the final cost. It was
simply a ceiling on expenditures up until
1975 - after that date, more money would
be appropriated if construction was not
completed. However, with the
postponement of the start of construction,
1978 has been estimated as the new date of
not

completion if the

work is begun this
month, and $650 million will cover less of
the total cost than if the original deadlines
could have been met.
Construction cost, estimated to increase
by 6% for 1968-69, actually rose by closer
to 105. For next year, the predicted
escalation is again 10%, 11% for 1970-71
and 12% for each of the following years up
to 1975. Presumably even these graduated
increases could go higher again cutting
down the buying power of the $650
million allocated until 1975 and raising the
additional amount needed to complete
construction after that date.

Losing by the day
When asked what a realistic final cost
estimate might be, Dr. Ketter stated that
there was “no scientific way” to arrive at
such a projection. He also stated that the
situation had “proceeded beyond the point
where estimates have much meaning.” He
pointed out that “the longer you put this
thing off, the more you are losing before
you even get started,”
The Stae University Construction Fund
has declared a moratorium on Amherst
construction contracts until some
settlement can be reached on the hiring of
minority workers for the campus project.
“Everything hinges on the labor problem,”
commented Dr. Ketter. “Someone has to
solve it eventually
when ‘eventually’ is, I
don’t know.” However, he did express
hopes that construction might start this
month.
If that were the case. Dr. Ketter states
that the first phase of the construction (the
—

initial six colleges) could be completed by
1975, with the final completion of the
entire campus project in 1978. Should the
delays continue much longer, however,
even that late date would have to be moved
back.

Is

more money available?
In the event that the construction will
stretch even further beyond the new

revised schedules - the extended deadlines
would bring with them an even higher final
cost than could be anticipated at this point
the question'arises as to exactly how
much money above the $650 million figure
would be available. Both Dr. Ketter and
Henrik M. Oullea, Assistant to University
President Matrin Meyerson, did not feel
that even a substantial rise in cost above
the $650 million ceiling would seriously
curtail plans for the Amherst facilities.
“The state has a very large comittment to
higher education in general,” said Mr.
Dullea. Dr. Ketter also noted the state’s
responsibility to provide higher education
opportunities for the ever-increasing
number of coliege-bound students and
added that the completion of the planned
Amherst campus was “a political matter,
not an academic matter” for Albany.
-

Overcrowding to continue

Translating that committment into
considerations, Mr. Dullea was

financial

optimistic that the stale could find the
money to see the Amherst project through
to full completion. He cited the steady
increases in the state’s total expenditures
budget over the years as an indication that

additional monies probably will be
available when the need arises. For
1964-65 the state budget was $2.89 billion,
while in 1969-70, the figure has grown to
$6.49 billion.
Though it appears that the master plans
for Amherst will be completed eventually,
the abandonment of the original 1975 date
will mean a continuation of the present
crowded conditions on this campus for a
much longer period than initailly expected.
In order to accomodate the enrollment of
those interim years, the Main Street
campus and the rented Ridge Lea facilities
will undergo “heavy utilization” and at the
“same density” as present, according to Dr.
Ketter. When asked if more facilities might
have been rented to cope with the
projected 40,000 student enrollment for
1975, Dr. Ketter stated that if construction
proceeds at a much slower rate, this might
be the case.
Alredy the postponement
of the
completion date has had to be taken into
account in the admission of next year’s
freshman - the class of 1973. Last year the
amount of resident freshman admitted was
increased with a view toward gradually
filling the six colleges, at that time
scheduled for completion in 1971. This
year, however, 300 less freshman were
admitted for the fall, and Dr. Ketter admits
the delay in Amherst construction was one
of the considerations. And even with a
diminished freshman class, facilities will be
cramped again next year
and apparently
for at least six to nine years to come.

Editor's note: Late Wednesday night, The
Spectrum learned of the resignation of Dr.
Keller from his post as Vice-President for
Facilities and Planning. A statement
released by President Meyerson said that
Dr. Keller will return to leaching
September I as a Professor of Engineering
and Applied Faculties. The statement went
on to say that Dr. Ketter had long hoped
to “return to academic purposes.
However a Thursday morning story in
The Courier Express reported that Dr.
Ketter “had a long talk on Meyerson’s
carpet" following their publication
Tuesday of a doubling of costs for the
”

construction of the Amherst campus. The.
story also mentioned “inter-agency rivalry
between
"UB offices, Albany-based
planning agencies and private agencies”as a
reason for Keller's resignation. It also
quoted an unnamed source who said Dr.
Ketter had been disappointed over
President Meyerson’s "lack of support"for
his campus planning. The article also
reported that Dr. Ketter was dismayed that
President Meyerson had failed to get him a
seal on John Galvin's 30-man Urban
Development Corp..which is investigating
development of the land surrounding the
Amherst campus site.
Dr. Ketier’s resignation was formally
submitted and accepted by President
Meyerson Wednesday morning, before he
left on a ten day trip to London.
No successor has been named, though
an unidentified source in The Courier story
suggested the candidate might come from
the Department of Civil Engineering,
noting Mr. Meyerson’s interest and
involvement in urban affairs.

Meyerson’s call for a “bicameral

The governance committee was
convened during last March’s
campus unrest. Representatives of
all student associations, the
Faculty Senate, Civil Service
Employees Association and the
administration were present on
that body. Various proposals for a
university-wide government were
to be examined by the committee
in order to facilitate wide
discussion.
Faculty Senate objects
The committee was unable to
fulfill its goals. A proposal for
convening a constitutional
convention next September was
rejected by the Faculty Senate.
“The Faculty Senate balked at
the proposed convention,
questioned the representation and
felt there was insufficient
research,” said Andy Steele,
Student Association 2nd vice
president.
As a result of this, the research
group was formed for further
study of the problem during the
summer. They are to forward
their findings to the governance
committee. According to Stewart
Edelstcin who was appointed to
coordinate the study group, “The
convention proposal did not pass
with the Faculty Senate. The
Governance committee decided
that perhaps more information
was needed to help the University
community make a decion about
governance,"

a test of power for the local Democratic organization,
which clearly had to show a united primary victory to
indicate a successful alternative to the Slominski tide.
Tuesday’s party-splintering returns also were an indicator
of the development of independent black political
sentiments.

The Mayor’s recent dabbling with “get-tough”
statements, his coddling of the police department, and his
attempts to discredit a black newspaper, as well as
Democratic District Attorney Micheal Dillon's successful
yet questionable removal of a strong opponent, Mrs.
Barbara Sims, from the primary, have, all probably
alienated the black East Side’s political sentiments Jo a
point of no return.

had approved her petitions, but Dillon, as a private citizen
took her to court. Of 2600 signatures, Mrs, Sims Imyl only
1081 approved by the Board, still enough to be on the
ballot ( 1000 minimum) but close enough for a Dillon
challenge.

58 petitions had been thrown out by the Board
because the witness, in listing the previous residence did
not write in the ward and city. Further. Dillon’s case
amounted to “legal” harassment, as he was intent on
having persons whose names he wanted removed testily in
the hearing, while the judge withheld judgment entirely
until Dillon decided he had run through enough
testimony.

In her appeal of the subsequent ruling by State
Supreme Court Justice Rollin A. Fancher, Mrs. Sims
charged that the Board of Elections had taken
unprecedented action in trimming nearly 250 signatures
from her petitions without her knowledge.
The fight seesawed back to the Supreme Court, then
to the State Court of Appeals, and on the morning of the
primary day, Mrs. Sims and Dillon appeared in Washington
in a judicial proceeding before U.S. Supreme Court Justice
John Harlan. Justice Harlan ruled that there was
insufficient cause to stop the primary election. Mrs. Sims,
tired after the two-week fight for judicial clarity, doesn’t
plan to contest the primary. Dillon has the nomination.
While the local press has emphasized the “personality
clash” between Assemblyman Eve and Mayor Sedita, the
issue central to the widening split in the city’s Democrats

is one of party responsiveness. After years in the
doldrums, Buffalo’s black community is finally beginning
to realize that it must develop its own political forces, not
contigent upon party patronage.
Eve has developed his black leadership role while in
office, and has gone out on a political limb by challenging
his former benefactors without convinced support of the
black community. However, it is just this “standing up to
Sedita” which has won him much increased support.
His activity in remodeling the East Side’s weekly
newspaper the Challenger toward a more militant and
legitimate position, has also been effective in gaining
support from Buffalo’s black community.
Sedita, Democrats in trouble
Eve’s seemingly effective consolidation of the black
community’s discontent could be the death knell for the
Democrats, not only in November, but for the future as
well.
Eve apparently has already written off Sedita as a
as
possible victor and given the condition of the city
unwelcome a possibility as Mrs. Slominski.
Sedita and the Democrats no doubt were cheered by
Mrs. Slominski's primary victory, in the hopes of waging a
victorious anti-backlash campaign which would unite all
the moderate and liberal elements ofthe city against her a
la the Johnson/Goldwaler campaign of 1 1 )64.
But there arc too many groups in the city who are
tired of Sedita’s liberal doublelalk ‘leadership’, and the
“fight the right” campaign formula won’t work.
Sedita would need the liberals, the Italians, labor and
the blacks to win.
He has lost the blacks and labor leadership has lost
control over its rank-and-file, which in Buffalo has never
been faithfully Democratic, and which this year more than
ever will vote along ethnic lines.

Chaotic uncertainty

There never was a strong Democratic ‘coalition’ in the
FDR tradition in Buffalo and the restless and alienated
working and lower middle class whiles and the likewise
restless and alienated blacks have begun to exert a
significant disruptive political influence in the city.
It’s chaotic and may will produce a rather inept
hlacklash mayor and exacerbate the city’s ethnic tensions:
but it's also healthy. There is now a growing recognition
that the old formulas and old regime are corrupt, and that
grass-roots politics can be powerful.

The rather turbulent period that Buffalo seems
headed for is frought with dangers, however; for
repression is as likely as rejuvenation.

Slominski gets the nomination;
for Sedita, it’s a ‘dark victory’
by Alfred Dragone

City Editor
It was once said that running in the Republican
mayoral primary was analogous to grappling for a deck
chair pn the Titanic. That rather hoaky adage no longer
holds true in Buffalo as Mrs. Alfreda W. Slominski,
endorsed Republican candidate for mayor, stands “threequarters of the way to City Hall, as she put it.
Mrs. Slominski, riding on a crest of conservatism in
her party, was the easy victor in Tuesday’s primary,
defeating attorney Richard E. Moot by nearly a 2 to 1
margin. Mr. Moot carried six city wards while Mrs.
Slominski won the other 21 sometimes as much as an 11 to
1 margin.
Tuesday’s vote was the climax of one of the bitterest
primary battles in years. As early as January, 1968 when
Mrs. Slominski assumed her seat as a Councilman-at-Large,
a clash between Republican conservatives and liberals wa$
predicted.
a
Regan,
that
Edward
time,
V.
At
Councilman-at-Large, was being touted as the next
mayorial choice. His smiling, pleasant manner and his
equivocation on issues made him appear rather liberal to
moderate Republicans.
”

Conservative appeal
This year, Mrs. Slominski declared her mayorial
candidacy in January. The Republican leadership,sensing
that there was a rift between black and white Democrats in
the city already, decided that it was not worth endorsing
Regan to try to court the black vote.
Mrs. Slominski, they reasoned, could entice voters en
masse from the usually Democratic Polish-American
wards and even a few in the Italian-Americah and
Irish-American wards. Her lure being, of course, law and
order.
Mrs. Slominski has been a vehement opponent of
transporting children from their neighborhood school
districts to achieve racial balance. The outspoken Mrs.
Slominski is therefore adored by her Polish-American
Voting in
constituents for her conservative views.
Tuesday’s primary was relatively heavy as 44% of the
city’s Republican voted. Republican County Chairman
;

Alfonso V. Bellanca and former chairman and “grand old
rrian” Ray Lawley were particularly jubilant over the
Moot defeat.
During the savage campaign, Messrs. Bellanca and
Lawley were accused of bossism by the Moot faction.
They personally conducted Mrs. Slominski’s campaign
and their prestige was definitely at stake. The
overwhelming victory was thus an intra-party vindication.
Apparently, the majority of the voters in the
Republican primary are straight party people. Therefore,
the regular members of the Republican party gave their
assent to the actions of this “dynamic duo.”

Sedita in trouble

The Slominski triumph represents a “dark victory”
for Mayor Sedita and his organization Democrats. Ideally,
of course, he would rather oppose some “lightweight”
representative of the moderate wing of the Republican
party such as Regan or Moot. Neither of them could have
hoped to attract the type of support that Mrs. Slominski
will command.
It would appear, then, that Mayor Sedita would have
benefitted from a Moot victory. This would have been true
if the Conservatives had not endorsed Mrs. Slominski on
January 31. If Moot had been the victor, Mrs. Slominski
would still hpe appeared on the third row of the voting
machine, thereby making it a three-way race. Although
the Mayor would have vastly preferred a Moot or Regan
candidacy alone, he can now battle head-to-head with one
opponent.
Compounding the mayor’s electoral woes, Arthur O.
Eve, who for months has been petulantly tugging at the
mayor’s coat, Tuesday evening dropped some rather
large hints about opposing Mr. Sedita in this year’s
election.
Mr. Eve, who has been at odds with the local
Democratic leadership announced Tuesday that “I’m
sure a third party candidate will enter the mayoralty
race this year.”
An Eve candidacy would provide an easy
victory for the first woman to be nominated by a major
party in Buffalo for the office of mayor. Siphoning off

black votes which Sedita desperately needs to win, Eve
could deny the Democrats the office and the attendant
patronage.
While Eve and the mayor will presumably be battling,
Mrs. Slominski will be able to unite her forces and glide to
an easy victory.
In 1961 Mayor Sedita was denied the Democratic
nomination in the primary, much to the shock of the
organization, when then Councilman Victor E. Manz won
the primary. Sedita ran as an independent against Manz

and the late Chester Kowal. In the election, while Sedita
garnered more votes than the regular Democraticcandidate, Kowal sailed to victory. A similarsituation may
develop this year.
Mayor Sedita will appear on the Democratic row and
the Liberal line while Mrs. Slominski’s name will be seeb
on the Republican and Conservative ticket.

Its effect on the people of England was one of
extreme unrest. Suspicion and fear spread from the
stone cold castles of the rich to the earthen houses
of the small villages.
If one delves into the annals of English history,
one will discover that on Feb. 4, 1623, in Sussex,
England, Alice Cooper was born.
Alice Cooper was the daughter of well-to-do
parents and was a strange child. She seemed always
to be listening to voices no one else could hear, often
smiling secretly, as if she knew the answer to some
worldly joke.

Magic of plants
Much of Alice’s time was taken up with her
sister Christine, who was three years older than her.
Christine taught her the magic of the strange plants
that grew in abundance in the forest and the ancient
words of old that could make the thunder roll and
the fire burn.
On Alice’s 12th birthday, her parents died by
fire. One year later Alice was witness to the death of
her sister. Christine, who was accused of being a
witch by the villagers and burned at the stake

Alice, with the help of Christine, seeing a new
life in another time, died by poison. Her age; 13
years; place; Sussex, England, year; 1636.
Alice Cooper was reborn. She, is now a member
of a rock group that bears her name'and will play in
the Fillmore Room tonight at 8:30 p.m.

First Ip
The group is solidly backed by Frank Zappa, the
head mother of the Mothers of Invention, who has
been pushing them for almost a year. The group
recently released their first Ip.
Alice Cooper, age 20, is back today. He is now,
as he was then, the mocking voice of the past,
echoed by Christine, whispering of tomorrow. Alice,
having come back, is now of today and has gathered
around him those of yesterday.

Harrison and Lennon
by Bob Mattern

Though criticism, like the music, is undefined
ambiguous, we have some
precedent outside of traditionalistic imitations. In
technological society, with the ever-increasing
reliance of sound as a definition of the culture, the
progression of electronic music will result in a media
so intertwined with its own content that any
separation of medium/message becomes impossible.
Unfinished Music No. 2
Life Amoung the
Lions, by Lennon and Ono, is as pretentiously
devoid of quality as its title might indicate. The
entire first side of Cambridge 1969 is a series of
yowls by Ono, accompanied by Lennon’s feedback

Electric Sound - George Harrison Zapple
Unfinished Music No. 2: Life Amoung the Lions
John Lennon, Yoko Ono
-

The Beatles, per se, have come and gone; they
are fragmented now and each is exhibiting his own
talents on the Zapple label. Harrison and Lennon are
both working on the most progressive form,
electronic music.
Electronic music came into existence as early as
the forties with John Cage’s'first explorations of the
possibilities of feedback and techniques of audio
frequency generation.
The new form remained somewhat stillborn
out of necessity
until the fifties, when tape
recording became sophisticated enough to handle
sound on soundoverlays and the recording of very
high and very low frequencies on a single,

multi-track tape.
The electronically produced music is now
moving in two distinct directions: toward imitation
of existing instruments and compositions on
electronic equipment, and, more importantly,
toward the creation of an entire new field with
undefined and limitless boundaries. And no rules.
Cage, as well as most of the established
electronic innovators, has chosen the latter course,
claiming that if electronic music is to be imitative it
that one might as well

drum.

Thus, the field of electronic music lacks all
definition except that it must be creative, inventive
and above all, continually exploring the possibilities
of audio stimulation. In his attempt at this, Lennon
has failed miserably.

'One is empty and two minutes long, one an
over-amplified electro cardiagram, and two lyrically
ridiculous songs by Ono, who confuses child-like
quality with child-like grace.
Even the over-worked retort of Beatle fans that
it is a fantastic put-on of some sort fails to explicate
the incompetence of the album.
The Harrison album, titled simply Electronic
Sound, is much nearer to achieving a purpose other
than robbery.
Both cuts are a full-side long (Under Mersey

25 minutes and ten seconds; No Time Or

12 minutes and 45 seconds), and both
examine the limitlessness of auditory response. Both
are well composed and clearly ordered.
Under Mersey Wall is similar to the works of
Milton Babbitt, most specifically his Ensembles for
the Synthesizer. No Time or Space is pervading,
conveys both timelessness and inertness.
Harrison establishes himself with this album as a
quality musician in other than rock, and as capable
of doing a great deal in the development of
electronic music, perhaps even counteracting
Lennon’s new-found dead weight.

It undoubtedly would be enlightening to understand what Hershey
means by that concept, for increasingly, “the American way” has
evolved into a way of hate and fear for millions of people. The
Eisenhower “good old days” are long gone, and cannot be brought back;
and what has replaced them can be neither be ignored or repressedd.
There is something seriously wrong in this country, - something which
conservative backlash can never cure, but only aggravate.

There is something wrong when a throng Of young people decide to

There is something wrong when the printing of a four-letter word is

if it might mean saving a few lives.

There is something wrong with a system that thinks it can save itself

Donald Lee Oughton was shot to death in Los

Lee Oughton ran down a street in Los Angeles and

caused two passing police officers to be suspicious
and they stopped him. It was too dark to see clearly,
and when Oughton reached for his wallet one officer
and fired. The first officer
yelled that he had a gun

Drew Pearson, nationally syndicated Washington columnist,
recently did a piece on a group called “Liberty Lobby.” He says there
are large “cells" in Buffalo and Pittsburgh, where Nazi songs are sung
and Nazi poetry is read.
Community welfa* minded John Otto, who runs the Extension
55 Show on WGR radio did a telephone hook-up with Mr. Pearson
following the column, since Buffalo was implicated with this
Nazi-oriented group. The results were interesting. Pearson revealed
the
some of the sources of information and read from Imperium
bible of Liberty Lobby. The book, he says, is dedicated to Adolf
Hitler, subtlely.
Chickens soon came home to roost and proved Pearson's
accusation. Callers were claiming: “I read Imperium and thought it was
a great book.” “Pearson is soft on communism.” Liberty Lobby woke
up that night; it reared its ugly head as they say.
Pearson took pains, I should point out, to say he and his
colleague, Jack Anderson, have for years battled extremists at both
ends of the spectrum from SDS to Liberty Lobby.
To emphasize my point (whatever it is) even further, 1 caught hold
of Liberty Lobby’s newsletter as it creeped into the newspaper room.
Speaking of “lawless tyranny of mob rule” on the college
campuses, a front page article says: “The horde involved, composed of
anarchists, black-power racists, nihilists,
militants of every stripe
junkies, beatniks and other unwashed radicals who by their appearance
are emboldened by the
deny that Western civilization is surviving
cowardice of college administrators unwilling to maintain order and
civilized standards.”
The newsletter continues: “Chief among the disruptive leadership
is the wildly radical SDS.” Its leadership according to J. Edgar Hoover
is saturated with Communists. No wonder Gus Hall boasts: (The SDS
is making opposition to the ‘safe-guard’ ABM missile system as its
major project.’)

�Coach Deming: away from the field
by Sharyn Rogers
Sports Editor

Most football players and their coaches
do not eat, sleep and breathe football, even
though many Saturday afternoon fans
might be inclined to think so. They lead
lives away from the playing field, the office
and the locker room that are as normal and
varied as anyone else’s.
Robert C. Deming, head football coach
at the State University of Buffalo is no
exception.
After a busy spring full of football
practices, recruiting and publicity, Mr.
Deming is looking forward to having more
time with his family this summer before
the fall season gets into full swing.
The Demings consist of his wife, a
former airline stewardess, and their two
-adnrahlp daughters, Laura (Missy), 2Vi, and
Leslie, 10Vi months. They are planning a
trip to Vermont later this summer just to
“get away.”

Coach Deming’s hobbies include
refinishing antique furniture (“That was
my wife’s idea!” he said) and investing in
stocks and mutual funds. He sees
invest ments as a good way to “provide for
the kids to go to college.”
«

Concern for players
Mr. Deming’s concern is

not limited

only to his children, but exttnds to his
players. He is personally interested in the
welfare of each of them, and of the team as
a

Besides spending time with his family,
Mr. Deming enjoys hunting and fishing. He
took a fishing trip to the Adirondacks last
spring with some of the other staff
members, and the same group is planning
an end-of-the-season hunting trip to the
same secret spot ne$t fall.
Other “sporty” interests of Coach
Deming’s include hockey (as a spectator)
and baseball (as a player).
“Baseball was probably my best sport,”
he said, but when it came to coaching, he
chose football.

“The most exciting game was the year

One of the biggest challenges
facing the new department is how

facilities.
The department will also
attempt to conduct an
intercollegiate athletic program

Another recommendation is
that crew and hockey be
supported as club activities.
Proposed additions to the
intercollegiate program would be

faculty and staff, available
facilities and financial resources.

‘Last Exit’
Last Exit, the latest alhum of
the Traffic, is a departure from the
acid-rock and country and western
styles that dominated their other
albums. Mr. Fantasy and Heavy.
Instead, there is a definite
combination of blues and ja// with
a slight inference of acid-rock. The
album lakes the listener on a trip
along an imaginary highway to the
last exit, where, hopefully, he can
find awareness of what life is all
about.
A hard rock beat along with a
harpsichord and violins starts the
journey as one travels along to the
first exit: the Shanghai Noodle
Factory where “...villagers are
plastic men; packed like roosters in
a pen." There is a trace of classical
influence in that counterpoint is
used. The tone of the song is very
bluesy and reminds one of a jam
used.The tone of the sog is very
bluesy and reminds one of a jam
session.

Traveling along, one feels a
driving force pulling him down the
highway. In Something's Got A
Hold of My Toe, this force is
brought out by a hard and heavy
instrumental. Steve Winwood's
guitar solo is extremely effective in
amplifying.

Stops along the way
The next exit which appears is
that of the Withering Tree.
Effectiveness is added to this piece
by using a slower, almost waltz
beat and a softer, not rock, tone.
Added audio effects, such as wii\d
rustling through the trees, aid in
presenting an almost pastoral
image.
It is the next exit at
which one temporarily stops. It is
at this exit that one is introduced

The film strips away the gawdy exterior of the

film is driven by instinct and the need to survive.
This is excellently shown in the scenes of the
school. The dominance of the Whips over the Scums
(the seniors over the underclassmen) is a perfect
example of man as the primitive. The Whips have
survived the terror of being underclassmen and assert

some jazz interwoven. “Blind
Man" seems to be an ode to
humanity. It attempts to show the
lack of communication blween
people, and the lonliness of people.
This is the best number on the
ablum. It says the most to the
listener about life and is a fitting
last exit.

A now group engaged in
education and the movement for
social change 'was formed on
campus in the closing weeks of
the spring semester. Called the
Women’s Organizing Committee,
it is composed of women, largely
students and members of the
academic community, who are
part of the growing women's
liberation movement across the
country.

The focal organizing point of
the WOC is the economic and
social discrimination against
females lhal prevails in this
society. The members of the
group view discrimination as part
of larger injustices against poor
and working-class whites and
blacks, and of the rigidity of the
roles everyone is forced to play in
society, but they will concentrate
on educating people to this in
relation to women. Women's role

Over the last year or two,
women’s groups have sprung up,
including moderate and radical
organizations, and have attracted
attention in the media. Women’s
groups staged a guerrilla theater at
last year’s Miss America pageant
to highlight the absurdity of what
they considered to be a
slave-market atmosphere at the
crowning of the “American
ideal," or the All-American Girl.

The women in WOC consider
their separate organization a

women and for society as a whole,

Last May 11, while most of the Red,
White, and Blue were giving it to Mom
with sparkledust greeting cards, we at
Reprise were quietly celebrating this
most sentimental of national holidays
in our own freaky way. With our beloved
MOTHERS OF INVENTION

-aa

Yes, Greater America may have
Nixon, cold cream, and vacuum-pack
lima beans, but we at Reprise are"now
allied with Frank Zappa and his Merry
Pranksters. And from them we have a
disgusting new album called
UNCLE MEAT

We were thinking of suggesting that
all of you tell Hallmark to shove it and
place a few bucks with us for a copy of
Uncle Meat. To have slipped to Mom on
HER DAY. But we weren't quite sure of
how she’d take to Suzie Creamcheese.
Or Ian Underwood (who whips it out
live on stage in Copenhagen). Or The
Dog Breath Variations. Or Electric Aunt
Jemina. Or King Kong (live on a flat bed
diesel in the middle of a race track at a
Miami Pop Festival). Or the picture
book that goes along with each and
every album.

So What we’ve done is write off our
20,000,000 beautiful “Happy The
ers Day” stickers. Instead we’ve made
sure that Uncle Meat is in the racks of
your favorite open-minded record
stores. To sell to people who won’t
write us lousy indignant letters.

SDS requests convention here:

Guess who's not coming to Buffalo
Studentsi for a Democratic Society, better
known as SDS, has become a household word during
the space of the past several years. SDS’s militant
campus uprisings, union organizing activities and
questioning of the basic values of society have
apparently caused the power structure of the United
States to consider the organization a force to reckon
with in the internal affairs of the nation.All of which
leads up to the present situation at the State
University of New York at Buffalo.

Original request
On Wednesday, May 28, Amie Stanton and
Raymond Malak, two SDS members of the local
chapter, visited Mr. Robert Graves, Director of
Scheduling, to ask about the possibilities of holding
the summer Nations! SDS convention on this
campus. The convention had been denied facilities
on many campuses for a variety of reasons, mostly
political. On June 8, Mike Klonsky, one of the
national organizers of SDS, charged that the federal
government, acting in direct concert with universities
throughout the country, has deliberately frustrated
attempts by SIS to acquire facilities for the
convention.
Mr. Graves directed the SDS group to write a

letter stating exactly what sorts of facilities were
desired, which was done. The letter was then
forwarded to Mrs. Ethel Schmidt, University
Conference Coordinator. Mr. Malak talked with Mrs.
Schmidt on the phone May 29, at which time she
was not able to tel) him anything definite about
facilities for the convention.
It was not until Monday, June 2 that Mr. Malak
was able to speak to her again. At that time, Mrs.
Schmidt t5ld him that facilities were definitely not
available and that he should talk to Donald R.
Brutvan, Acting Dean of the Division of Continuing
Education, who had “supposedly” made the final
decision in the matter.

Mr. Malak received a letter from Dean Brutvan
following day, re-iterating these points. Later in
the day, the radio and television stations, along with
the newspapers, announced that SDS had been
denied permission to hold the convention on this
campus.
The official reasons given for the denial of
facilities conflict with the source. President
Meyerson, out of town at the time of the decision,
later said it would fall into the realm of Dean
Brutvan and Richard A. Siggelkow, Vice President
for Student Affairs.
the

‘Participatory democracy’
Dr. Siggelkow emphasized that the matter was
completely out of his department, but agreed that
the decision would rest with Dean Brutvan and
ultimately President Meyerson. He added, that with
Meyerson out of town, the matter would revert to
Peter M. Regan, Executive Vice President.
When contacted by The Spectrum, Dr. Regan
stated: “We weren’t even consulted. This was a
decision made by participatory democracy.” In
addition, he agreed that “the facilities are strapped.”
Assistant to the President, Gilbert D. Moore said
he did not know all the background, nor did he see
the letter but said that “we don’t have the space for
the week, or the money to run the gym, Rotary
Field and the total Union building .. .we can’t close
down the gym for a week during summer session.”
Dean Brutvan, who was quoted in the Buffalo
press as making the original announcement said:
‘There were no facilities on the basis of the time
given us and the number (participating).. .apart
from any other considerations.”
Financial responsibility?
According to Dr. Bmtvan, there was also a
financial aspect to the matter though he said: “We
never got to that point.
“We generally like to . .(accept) an
organization that will maintain a final responsibility,
an individual to accept financial responsibility. Who
would be responsible for charges dinners, room
rentals, etc?”
When asked whether or not the nature of SDS as
an organization had anything to do with the denial,
Dean Bmtvan replied: “The fact that they were SDS
might have led me to reconsider it to make a more
determined effort to justify any decision. I would
.

And denial
Mr. Malak then spoke with Dean Brutvan, who
told him that there simply was no room for the
convention and even if there were, other factors
would have to be considered, such as “necessary
fiscal negotiations which in themselves may. be a
deterrent because of self-funding provisions” and
“sufficient lead time to properly plan and coordinate
a conference of the magnitude you propose.”

have been a little apprehensive about having a
national SDS convention here. There might have
been some feedback from the community, for
instance.”
In the face of this seeming confusion oyjer the
original letter, described by Mr. Malak as “a very
simple missive asking only for a few things,” SDS has
decided to re-submit its request.
Letter misunderstood
Mr. Malak clarified some of the
misunderstandings cited by some sources as reasons
for the refusal: “We requested roughly 20 rooms,
which could be made available to SDS at virtually
any hours of the day, depending on the decisions of
the administration; and the use of Rotary Field for
four hours on the first and last day of the
convention. We made no request for Clark Gym or
Norton Union. It was estimated that between 1500
and 2000 people would be here, not 2000 to 4000
figures later quoted by various
or 10,000
administrators. SDS was planning to do all of its own
planning and coordinating and was also going to
arrange living and dining facilities for arrivals
off-campus. In addition, we would have supplied any
free requestes for use of facilities within a matter of
-

days.”

Request re-submitted
SDS firmly believes that there is, indeed,
available the few things we asked for,” continues Mr.
Malak, “and we believe we were denied the right to
hold the convention here purely for political
reasons.” Among the reasons he cites are the possible
reaction of the community to such a convention and
the obvious publicity advantages for the University
in denying such a request; the charge by national
SDS organizer, Mike Klonsky that the federal
government was directly intervening in the campus
refusals all over the country to host SDS and the
irritating nature of SDS itself to administrators.
Last Wednesday, June 11, the SDS group met
with Dean Bnitvan to discuss the whole convention
situation at length and re-submit their request in
light of the original misunderstandings. With the
convention date already moved up twice, it is
doubtful that even this latest attempt wil result in a
National SDS convention in Buffalo.

�Coalition gets $275,000
incumbents
Eve challenging
State grants funds to
in Democratic Party battle

by I. Frederick Wallace

Arthur 0. Eve, 143rd district Assemblyman, leads the
fight to break through the curtain of the Democratic
machine in Buffalo, which he feels has been unresponsive
and insensitive to the needs of the Black citizens.
Mr. Eve was the first Black

man to be named “Man of the
Year” by the American Civil
Liberties Union and by the
Citizen's Committee for Human
Rights. He recently received the
Medgar Evers award for
outstanding community service.
Mr. Eve fought for the creation
of Buffalo’s SEEK program and
has worked to have it expanded to
all of Upstate New York. Arthur
Eve’s deep concern for the
accelerating drug addiction in his
community motivated him to
work for the creation of a
narcotics rehabilitation center.
This year Mr. Eve sponsored a
bill which would create a day care
ceifter in the Black community
and another which makes it
possible for the city to fund
non-profit organizations for the
purpose of involving them in
dealing with the problems of the
inner-city.

'House boy’

Mr. Eve is an engineer, and his
wife, who is just as “dedicated to
the Black community,” is an
assistant professor of English at
Erie County Technical Institute.
Their incomes could allow them
to live, perhaps, in Williamsville,
where he could be absorbed into
the white establishment and
become what he calls a “house
boy.”

Mr. Eve has been accused of
trying to incite a riot by

Now, a Black youth group, in the
Black weekly, The Challenger, and
of having much to gain and
nothing to lose if there was a riot.
Mr. Eve says that Mayor Sedita
and several department heads met
with Us Now at the Michigan St.
YMCA. The Us Now group
presented proposals for a “Black
Summer” and also submitted a
statement declaring they were a

non-violent group.
Mr. Eve said: “The mayor
stayed four hours with these
youngsters on Friday, endorsing
their efforts enthusiastically. The
following Tuesday he denounced
their efforts. This was a gross
breach of promise.
The mayor said he would work
through his councilmen. Us Now
invited all public officials to meet
with them and none of the

councilmen showed up.

William Gaiter, president of
BUILD, an organization which has
been widely mentioned as a rival
of Minority Coalition, refused to
condemn the action. “The
Minority Coalition was funded to
do a specific thing and 1 hope
they achieve that,” he said.
“We don’t accept the grant as a
final solution. We are holding to
our demand for 4000 of the new
jobs created,” he said. “We have
plans worked out but I don’t wish
to disclose them at this time.”
Mr. Gaiter commented on the

the kind of tactic the community
would relate to, but for the most

and the few students who care to
spearhead the drive for jobs,” he
said.
Speculation on coalition choice
A Buffalo Chamber of
Commerce spokesman said: “I am
not opposed to the project per se.
I just have a question mark about
why the Opportunities
Development Corporation wasn’t
utilized.”
The ODC was formed by the
Chamber of Commerce and
several minority community
groups. ODC has undertaken
several programs to find and train
minority workers.
“At the time of its inception
several years ago, ODC
represented all community
groups,” the spokesman said.
“Several manpower-type programs

■“
Blacks have been taken for

Democratic party and the last to

In response to the criticism of
The Challenger, he said: “The
Challenger is a Black media
controlled and committed to the
Black community. It also provides
an outlet for the Black youth such
as Us Now.”
’Re-evaluation’
One might fear that this split
between Mr. Eve and the mayor
would pave the way for the
election of someone considered
hostile to the Black community,
namely Mrs. Slominski.
However, Mr. Eve says; “The
community has to re-evaluate its
friends as well as its foes and
perhaps consider a third
candidate. The Black community
is slowly being murdered.”
“Sedita cannot be trusted. He
showed this in his statement in
regard to the East Side that he
could keep the nigger down just
like Alfreda Slominski.”
“Sedita wanted
the
Republicans to endorse Mrs.
Slominski. Sedita figured this
would solidify his candidacy for it
was feared that a Black would run
as a fourth candidate and
Slominski would tun as a third
candidate.”
“Sedita
has clearly
demonstrated his lack of
responsibility to the Black
community.”

“There is room for speculation
about the grant and the choice of
the Minority Coalition,” he said.
“If the state really is concerned
about training it seems reasonable
to use our facilities. It is better to
organize all groups with equal
status and involve the entire
community rather
than
deliberately trying to pre-empt
one group.”
Andrew Holt, Assistant to the
Vice President for Facilities
Planning of the State University
of Buffalo, said that the
agreement was between the
Minority Coalition and the State
Construction Fund. “All I know
of this is what I’ve read. This
University was not involved in the
agreement,” he said.

Mr. Holt indicated that the
actual contracts for construction

-

of New York at Buffalo has once again
the myriad of college campuses across the
to host the National SDS convention
but by coming up with a set of creative
-

Whereas other campus administrators were frank enough to say
just plain didn’t want SDS, the Hayes Hall decision-makers offer a
slew of original excuses ranging from lack of space, to lack of beds, to
lack of time, all the way around the circle to fear of who’s going to
foot the bill. Depending on the official consulted, such considerations
as inadequate food facilities and not enough internal security and
maintenance enter the picture. And in back of it all, a healthy bit of
paranoia as to the nature of the SDS organization itself occasionally
surfaces.
Among the unresolved issues which emerge from the past weeks’
activities is the misunderstanding of the original SDS request. Facilities
requested were about 20 classrooms or rooms in Norton Hall to be
used any time, day or night, whenever they were free. Rotary Field
would have been occupied for four hours on the first and last days. No
request was made for Clark Gyrh, as was thought by many
administrative parties; neither did SDS foresee some four to ten
thousand conventioneers swooping down on Buffalo. Their projected
number was in the 1500 to 2000 range and they planned to feed and
house them on their Own.

In light of this apparent confusion over what SDS was requesting,
another meeting was set with Dr. Brutvan for Wednesday morning. It is
doubtful, however, that even re-explanations will be able to make the
SDS convention materialize here.
Which leaves us with a number of other serious considerations.
The lack of facilities and that alone, should be the sole determinant in
accepting or refusing the SDS request, if this is really the open campus
we are often told it is. However, the lack of facilities has been a hard
fact to establish. Not only SDS, but The Spectrum were given the
run-around in trying to determine the channels of decision-making. It
is hard to believe that so many people know so little about how major
decisions such as this one are arrived at by the University. If the
administration truly wants to avoid student dissent they would be wise
to unveil some of their decision-making processes to those who are
affected by them
the students
and avoid playing the frustrating
game of “passing the buck.”
The decision to reject the SDS convention request must be closely
re-examined particularly in the light of the national right-wing trend
toward repression of campus dissent. If facilities really are not
available, this can be understood. But clouding the issues with
buck-passing and a host of unfounded reasons that don’t even apply
not only cannot be accepted, but actually serve to aggravate a
potentially explosive campus situation.

As you lie there under the shade of a tall green
tree on the green grass contemplating your navel, or
your young lady’s navel, or whatever it is you would
like to contemplate, consider this: one man is dead
because some people wanted to build a place with
grass and trees in Berkeley, California.
Someone asked me in Toronto last weekend, or
some weekend recently, if there is an answer to the
current problems in the United States that does not
include violence. I said it depended on those with
the greater capacity for violence. I respectfully
suggest the question has been answered. James
Rector is dead because Ronald Regan wants to be
re-elected to the governor’s mansion in California.
Ronald Regan has an issue
student unrest. He will
win an insanely large plurality next November
because of fear. And he will never even notice the
blood on his soul.
Nobody knows who gave the orders to carry and
use shotguns in Berkeley / The students are
irresponsible and anarchistic. But a man is dead
because someone decided that double-ought
buckshot was necessary for crowd control. What is
happening in a country where two of the three
largest cities ire run by Sam Yorty and Daley? In a
country where the governor of California can
arbitrarily declare that the penalty for using an
empty lot for a park is a riot and mobilize the
National Guard? It can’t happen here? Nelson
Rockefeller seems to be moving rapidly in that
apparently if you can’t bear Ronald
direction
Regan, you join him.
And now the ring grows tighter. One of the
nation’s major campuses has effectively been run by
a National Guard Commandant for two weeks and
very probably is being done so even as you read this.
What do they do when somebody shoots down one
of their precious tear gas-carrying helicopters

Viet Cong have demonstrated rather conclusively
that one really does not need that much firepower to
do so. The natural response in this case is to call in a
few tactical aircraft and strafe the area, isn’t it? Ask
your friends who are going to supply the "necessary
civilian-background officers’’ by belonging to ROTC
What happens if they get that order. “Silence enemy

Minimize damage to as few square blocks as possible.
It is happening here, if you have enough
empathy to see “there” as here. Tell you what
next time one of our friendly little traffic-eye
helicopters flutters over, consider the fact that the
same sound causes kids to run for the nearest water
supply to wet handkerchiefs on the Berkeley
campus. And if you can find a Canadian who will
talk to you, ask about the incredible differences
between the media coverage in Berkeley, in Canada
and on this side of the border.
But forget it. You are a good decent law-abiding
citizen and nothing like that ever happens to people
like you. You know that property is more important
than human life and besides you could get hurt that
way, getting involved, trying to do something. Relax,
laze the summer away. You know you aren’t going
to get hurt, especially since if the time ever comes to
make a choice, by the time you make up your mind
you won’t have to worry about it any more. The
agitators will all be gone and nobody will be
troubled anymore.
One short question
does it seem to you that
the efforts to repress students is getting worse in this
country since they tried to change things in
Czechoslovakia? I mean, of course change was good
thing for our side. TThere, but here?
The need is clear. Students, and the young in
this country in general, must be stopped, NOW.
Remcjnber France in the not-so-distant past, when a
demonstration of power on the part of the young
rocked that country? You’d better remember it,
because the only reason for the wave of hysteria
about “anarchy” and the rest of the garbage now
being shoveled out by the leaders of our system onto
“niggers,” “hippies,” “radicals” and the old reliable
“outside agitators”
the only semi-reasonable
reason not- indicating mass psychoses
is a fear of
the future. A future when representation will be in
line with sacrifice, when life will be important and
not confused with either property or security.

people have to make a choice. A consideration for

“Worship has suffered from the

Speaking last week, the Rev.

potential of the contemporary
arts in church liturgy. The

discussion was part of a seriesoT

questions sponsored by the State

Credit-Free Programs.

Father Schillaci charged that “a

liturgical vitality in the past were
those in which the base cultural
approach to reality was reflected

in the mode of worship.”
TV commercial

Schillaci emphasized the
importance of the cinema. He

believes that films can dramatize
and humanize the moral questions
posed by the secular world. A
television commercial projected
over images of human conflict
during the Mass “can be a telling
experience,” he said.
“The Mass,” he suggested, “is
the richest liturgical ceremony in
promise, but often the poorest in j
delivery.” Father Schillaci feels
that to add relevance to the Mass,
new levels of meaning must be

discovered.

He said that “a new liturgy of
contemporary communications is
developing,” which will “appeal
to the total person through the
arts. The multi-media approach to
liturgy takes on vitality and
involvement.”

Ah, the state of confusion . . .
“The primary functions and
importance of photographic art
has been neglected as film making
progressed,” he said. Photography
is a representation of reality and a
means of control over the
environment.
The objects are reproduced in
their own image and “more is
revealed in this image through the
sensitivity of the artist than in the
object itself.” Historically, reality
has been presented as a unit
through the mirror of
photography with realistic bias to
the photographic image.

Creative editing process
Father Schillaci also views the
process of editing as being
creative, “turning poetic film into
visual imagery.”
The succession of images
established new relationships
between events, demonstrating
the relatedness of all reality.”
Theologically, man faces the
self in technology. Through
artistic control in a technological
situation, unity is created in an
object. There is a rapport with the
environment, humanist values
come through. “There is
experience produced by editing in
reducing continuity to let
significance come to the surface.”

Sunday afternoon thousands of tourists

That night, after the two-day Allentown Art
Festival was over, and most of the 10-20,000 visitors

Allentown ‘regulars’. It didn’t take long for the lines
of K-9 Corps Wagons and the dozens of squad cars of
the Tactical Patrol Unit to arrive to announce that it
was time to clear the streets: the fun was over.
Ice cream for the visitors; menacing clubs for

The contrast between the two faces of the

predominent attitudes not only about Allentown,
but also about art.

Weekend
On the weekend of June 14-15,
Jean Luc Godard’s latest film
“Weekend” will be shown in the
Conference Theater. A film that
represents the quintessence of
Godardian imagery and cinematic
artistry, “Weekend” is fast
becoming Godard’s most popular
movie.
This film is brimming with a
potpourri of Godardian themes:
the consumer society and the
horror of the bourgeoisie,
established by the scenes of
guerilla warfare; indiscriminate
butchery and carnage on the
roads; growing violence in our
so-called “civilized” society; the
supremacy of nature over society;
a choice between the element of
materialism and revolution, Mao
and Johnson.

Jan Dawson of “Sight and
Sound” says about “Weekend”:
“For Weekend is poetic in its
structure as well as its imagery,
alternately violent and tender,
humorous and cruel. A dialectic
poem, a revolutionary film.
Indeed, the Cannes Festival
fiasco and the student initiative in
the French strikes provide a
timely endorsement of Godard’s
recurring themes
the
inseparability of politics and art,
politics and education.”

all the aspects of the fringe

It is different from that in the
black ghetto; it may even be more
dangerous for it is the guilt-ridden
anger of the parent toward the
betraying child. Recognizing
themselves as ‘outcasts’ the native
artists of Allenhurst use this as a
motive force in' their art; by far
the best art of the exhibition last
weekend was from Allentown, not
Amherst. They also realize that
the price they pay for these two
days of being on exhibition
themselves, for this two-day
chance to pass off an unsatisfying
piece onto some ascotted nouveau
art patron, for this two-day
respite from the police, is a high
one: they sacrifice their art.
Art. It's probably what was
least responsible for bringing
people to Allentown last
weekend, and it was p/obably the
only thing abused more in those
two afternoons than the city’s
traffic regulations. Thousands
shoved in one-way streams along
sidewalks lined with painting after
painting. No time to say

past.

Festival. One week before the
‘festival’ an influential group of
local artists raised vociferous
objections to the manipulation of
the festival by the Allentown

business interests. ‘Let’s put the
Art back into Art Festival* was
their cry. The local businessmen
finally agreed to have a ‘contest*
with prizes awarded in various
categories.

The

artists were demanding
more than an offering of prize
money, which usually can’t even
pay the cost of materials, or of
the opportunity to be ‘judged’ by
two of their most respected peers
in public view. What they were
responding to was the increasing
bastardization
of their
community, which could have no
more vivid example than last
weekend’s carnival. It was too
pretentious to be trusted, too
crowded to be adequately

digested.
The Festival may be grand
entertainment for some, the
paint-by-numbers oils may be
pleasing to many visitors, but such
an affair is thievery at its lowest
form. The creative energies of a
community like Allentown are
being continually drained and
for most Festival
visitors, they are silent
participants in that thievery 363
days every year.

Next June, stay home for those
two days. And visit Allentown on
all those other days. The best
artists will still be there long after
the concessionnaires arc gone.

Federal marijuana law void;
Leary’s court decision a high
On May 19, 1969, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed Dr.
Timothy Leary’s Texas marijuana conviction and in the
process destroyed most of the marijuana tax act and cleared
the way for decent marijuana legislation in this country.
Justice John Marshall Harlan,
writing the court’s unanimous 8-0
opinion, declared that Dr. Leary
“ran a very substantial risk of
self-incrimination
under state
marijuana laws if he complied

with the federal laws.
After deliberating for almost
five months on Leary’s defense,
the defense field for Henry P.
Covington, two amicus curiae
(friend of the court) briefs filed
on behalf of the defendants by
the American Civil Liberties
Union and the National Student
Association and the Justice
Department’s prosecution briefs,

U.S. District Judge Joseph P,
Kinneary had dismissed an
indictment against Covington, a
jazz musician charged with “being
a transferee of and acquiring a
quantity of marijuana without
having paid the tax imposed by

law.”
On March 27, 1968, Judge
Kinneary ruled that Covington
would have incriminated himself
under state laws if he had tried to
pay the federal tax. The Justice
Department appealed the

significant amounts of marijuana.

Meanwhile, under the various
versions of the Uniform
Narcotics Code widely adopted
because of Anslinger’s campaign,
it is a crime to possess or
distribute marijuana under almost
any conditions. Hence, Anslinger’s
old campaign carried within it the
seeds of its own destruction: the
resulting laws conflicted and the
state laws ensured the
unenforceability of the national
laws.
state

Import statues
The second national law cut to
ribbons by the new ruling governs
importation of marijuana. Dr.
Leary was convicted in Texas of

transporting

illegally-imported

marijuana under a section of the
importation statues and

administrative regulations called
“possessory presumption.” This
clause, written into law to assist
the Narcotics Bureau, allows a
court to presume that any
marijuana found in the possession
of a defendant was imported from
some other country. In order that
the possessor may be charged with
smuggling even if he was not in
fact illegally importing pot, the
clause also makes the presumption
that the possessor knew his
marijuana was imported.
Since Dr. Leary had not
extered Mexico, it was obvious
that he was not smuggling the pot
found in his car from Mexico
when he was arrested, so the
agents had to invoke the
“possessory presumption” clause
to charge him with transporting
imported marijuana.
Late in 1968, a Federal district
court in New York City had

unconstitutional. LEMAR guru
Joseph Oteri, the Boston lawyer
who wrote the amicus brief filed
on Dr. Leary’s behalf by USNSA,
pointed out the earlier decision to
the Supreme Court.
The court decided to confirm
the earlier decision and thus to
dismiss the second count of Dr.
Leary’s conviction. Justice Harlan
wrote tartly: “It would be- no
more than speculation were we to
say that even as much a$ a
majority of possessors ‘knew’ the
source of marijuana.” Even more
scathingly, Justice Black wrote in
a concurring opinion: “Congress
has no more constitutional power
to tell juries they can convict a
defendant of a crime without any
evidence at all from which an
inference of guilt could be
drawn.”
Dr. Leary is still not quite
home free. This case now reverts
to a lower appeals court for either
dismissal or re-trial or
re-sentencing; and there is a
possibility of his being re-tried
under Texas laws.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;

Why the lady missed Monday tea
__

by Corydon Ireland
Staff Reporter

Spectrum

Joyce Costner is a 23 year old black woman.
She lives at 253 Eagle St. in the Ellicott projects.
Every afternoon at 5 o’clock she has tea with
Daisy Harris, who lives in the same building.
Monday afternoon, May 5, Daisy put the
water on for tea as she had always done. It had
almost boiled when Daisy remembered that
Joyce would not be up to see her for tea. She
remembered that Joyce was in the hospital, as
she had been since the night before. Joyce was
“hurt bad,” she remembered, but when she got
out of the hospital she would sit by her in the
long afternoons, holding an ashtray for her, and
offer to bring down more tea or soup or
cigarettes. She would sit by Joyce on the sofa
and she would comfort her and it would not be
so bad for a while. They would talk about old
times, like when they could only smoke in
windowless bathrooms away from parents or
about when they could get high on a Camel.
When the newspapers came, neither Daisy nor
Joyce would read them.
Daisy took the water off the burner that
Monday afternoon almost at the moment Joyce
Costner was getting out of Millard Fillmore
hospital. As it turned out, Daisy would see her
the next day and sit by Joyce on the sofa,
holding her ashtray and talk.
But on Monday afternoon Joyce went to her
parents’ house on Glenwood Ave., under heavy
sedation, to be near her family as she recovered
from multiple contusions of the chest, arms,
neck and legs. When I saw her she still had the
hospital identification band on her wrist, blue
and white on black.

How it started
This is the story of how Joyce Costner did
not make it to tea on that Monday afternoon,

May 5. It is distilled from a number of first-hand
accounts.

It is Sunday evening. May 4. The time is
30 p.m. The last warm touch of the day has
inven people from the building at 253 Eagle St.
nd from the buildings that surround it in the
projects. The street is teaming with kids playing
all and mothers gabbing and watching their
hildren. There are a few men around, but not
rumy. The streets are alive with the noise of the
summer stoop-culture, as people find refuge
'rom the driving heat of the projects in the open
air of the street.
That day, Joyce was in the hall on the first
!l00r of the building, waiting for the elevator.
)»meone came in and told her Mr. Spaak, a
'

w w eeks ago, had just hit her sister’s boy. Jack

Archie, who is nine. She went out to see what
was going on.
When she got outside she asked Mr. Spaak
hy he had hit the boy. He said little Jack was
messin’ with my kid.” An argument followed,

The three of them frazzled around for a minute
or two and the fight broke up.
Joyce went back inside the building and the
Spaaks retired to Emergency Hospital, which is
just a block away on Pine St. Mr. Spaak was
admitted for observation for an “arm injury”
the hospital would divulge no details
and
ended up spending the night there. From the
hospital, Mrs. Spaak callefl the police and
complained about the disturbance. Two officers
from Precinct No. 4. a short distance away on
Michigan St., responded to the call in a matter
of minutes.

Police escort
At the hospital, after hearing the Spaaks’
story, the police advised them to take out a
warrant for the arrest of Joyce Costner. Afraid
that she would be assaulted further, Mrs. Spaak
asked the police to escort her back to her
apartment in the 253 Eagle St. building. They
did so.
The two officers, neither of whom could be
positively identified by witnesses, entered the
building with Mrs. Spaak. walked down a short
hallway and turned to the right. They waited for
the elevator. Joyce Costner was there at the
same time, but no words were exchanged until
she tried to get into the elevator with the
policemen and Mrs. Spaak, and was pushed aside
by an officer.
According to witnesses, Joyce Costner and
the officer who had pushed her started to argue
loudly. The policeman purportly said: “If you
don’t shut up. I’m gonna kill you.”
He had Miss Costner forced up against the
wall when her brother Floyd, who had just come

back from visiting their brother, Leonard, in
Cold Springs (Oxford Ave.), entered. He had
approached the building where he lives four
flights up from his sister only a moment before.
He claims he saw a large crowd of kids outside
the building and was curious to see what was
going on.
Inside, he saw the police arguing with his
sister. One officer was jabbing his finger into her
face as he talked. His first reaction was to tell
the officer he didn’t have to talk to anyone like
that. He wanted to know what was going on. At
this point one officer broke from the argument
and went out to the cruiser parked at the curb in
front of the building. As he passed Floyd
Costner he nudged him in an insinuating way
but, according to Floyd; “1 knew what he was
trying to do so I didn’t even react.”

“Inciting to riot”
Floyd picked up the story from here. “I saw
the cop go out to the cruiser and 1 heard him
say; ‘I’d like some reason to get that cocksucker
down to the station.’
It was at this point
that he was joined by his partner, who said; “We
can get them on inciting to riot.”
“There were
about ten or 15 kids around, most of them
under 10 years old, and about seven or eight
women from the neighborhood.”
The local newspapers claimed that the
Costners urged “a crowd of 150 to prevent them
from being arrested.” There was no formal
warrant at this point.
Floyd claims to have heard one of the
policemen radio the Michigan station “to send as
many cars as you can over here. We’ve got some
trouble.” In the space of a few minutes six
additional cruisers pulled in front of the building
along with two K-9 Corps wagons.
“It looked like there was 15 cars there to
me,” one woman from the neighborhood said.
“They pushed him (Floyd) aganMt the car and
searched him. And when they tojd him to get
into the car, he did. He didn’t resist .”
1
“The she (Joyce) went up to the car and
asked him to get out. She told the cops he
hadn’t done anything. She tried to get Floyd out
of the car herself, but they pulled her away and
&gt;
pushed her up against the car.
“One cop went to put her in the car and
another one said: ‘Don’t push her in the car,
throw her in!’ And they did.”
Then she talked about Floyd; “I were
wonderin’ why he was beat up. He really fiadn’t
did anything, he was just standin' there.”
Floyd said that when they searched him, all
he said was: “What for?” “They pushed me into
the car after they searched me. My sister tried to
get into the car to get me out. She told them I
hadn’t donq anything. They pushed her out of

them sat on her chest and was heatin’ her. It was

Nixon’s

first 100 days

by The Gutrdian Weekly

It has been an American
political tradition since the early
days of Franklin Roosevelt for a
new President to receive every
indulgence from Congress and the
public during his first 100 days in
office. Then an assessment is
made of his handling of affairs
and of the legislative program he
has outlined. And from then on
he is considered fair game for
criticism. President Nixon’s first
100 days are up. How are he and
his policies to be judged?
Unlike

The e n e mies of the
anti-ballistic missile have been

silent lately. They are letting the
ABM’s friends do their work for
them.
The administration has been
doing a splendid job of stirring up
opposition to Safeguard among
people who never cared
particularly one way or another.
President Nixon himself has been
leading the way.
The President must take credit
for mobilizing the scientific
community against ABM. By and
large the scientists regarded ABM
as a political matter. But when the

of Cornell as head of the National
Science Foundation strictly on
the grounds of his opposition to
the deployment of Safeguard, he
touched the brotherhood , of the
quick.
They made such furious
representation to the White House

that the President hastily offered
to give Long the job anyway. Mr.
Long refused, and teh American
Physical Societyjob anyway. Mr.
Long refused, and the American
Physical Society, meeting here
polled itself about ABM and

turned out 75 per cent against. A
group picketed the White House.
The Long affair set off some
nasty reverberations among the

inter-faith group organized by the
Rev. John Boyles, assistant

views, asked if clergymen would
be barred for the same reason.

Meanwhile, Defense Secretary
Melvin R. Laird, who has from the
beginning been regarded by ABM
opponents as the best friend they
have, has continued to do his
thing, which as John K. Galbraith
said, is “to scare the hell out of
everybody.”
Sec, Laird who is far more
sensible than his recent utterances
would indicate, would really like
to be discussing the politically
alluring subject of withdraw! of
American troops from Saigon, but

House, which wants to “negotiate

compensate, Laird is overselling

flock of new program or
legislative proposals. He has
generated no sense of urgency or
excitement nor, even of any
purposeful movement forward
towards clearly defined goals. The
pace has been leisurely, deliberate,
cautious and low-keyed.

-

But considerable public
confusion has been engendered
concerning his intentions on
Vietnam by the contradictory
statements of leading members of
the administration. And by their
palpable efforts to inspire
optimism which they cannot
support with evidence. Indeed the
Nixon Administration is already
getting perilously close to a
credibility gap. On one day the
Defense Secretary hints at
substantial early reductions in the
American troops in Vietnam. On
another he says he knows of no
plans for any early reduction. One
spokesman says there can be no
reduction until all the North
Vietnamese troops have gone
home; another says that a
unilateral American withdrawal
would force Hanoi to withdraw if
it was seriously seeking a
negotiated settlement.

Secret talks
All this has led to confusion,
which recent hints about progress
at secret talks in Paris
hotly
denied by the other side
have
further confounded. There is
insufficient evidence so far on
which to base a judgment about
Mr. Nixon’s handling of Vietnam.

He is credited with a genuine,

an
determination, to end the
American involvement in the war
which has been costing the U.S.
more than $70 million and 32
lives for every day since Mr.
Nixon came to the Presidency.
But he has not yet indicated how
he will do this if the Paris
negotiations fail, nor how long he
will be prepared to give the
negotiations before taking
alternative action. The public is
probably ready to give Mr. Nixon
a little longer. But the pressures
are beginning to build up again.

Explaining that admission of

Although MFC usually accepts
1800 new students, only 400 will

“This is an arbitrary cut,” Dr,
Brutvan explained, “because there

anticipate the effects of the

of precedent.
It is unfortunate, he continued,
that MFC’s allowances are

because MFC comprises one-fifth

“Wc will have less money for
instruction,” he continued, “and
this coupled with the four

in fewer programs.”
He added that “if there had

would have resulted in a 25%

Would you pay
a little something to
get through your next
language exam?
At Berlitz, we have a secret device for getting you through
language tests.
It’s called a Berlitz instructor.
He’s a man who’s gotten dozens of seemingly hopeless students through dozens of seemingly impossible exams.
He does it by first finding out just how hopeless you are, then
he sits with you and virtually brainwashes you until you not
only speak the language. You understand.
Of course, all this costs a dollar or two.
But seeing it could make all the difference between making
it and flunking, it’s a small price to pay.

Second Vice President of

a member of the committee,
explained how he evaluated the
candidates. “I voted for whom I
thought best represented my
concept of the Student Judiciary.
Only one candidate was
unanimous.”
“I was quite conscious of the
politics of the court,” Mr. Steele
remarked, “livery interview was
taped for the public record, so if
you missed a meeting you could
still consider the people . . . Some
people just didn't know what the

Ghetto is a black word.
Linguistically, no one but a black
man can live in a ghetto. There are
whites poorer than many of the
blacks in Buffalo and they live in
designated areas, but none of
them live within the confines of a
word like ghetto.
A few short blocks from the
heart of downtown Buffalo, in
sight of the towering whiteness of
the new M&amp;T complex and the
crowning white spire of Niagara
Mohawk, are the bare, angular
towers of the Ellicott Projects
complex. Each building in the
complex- is 12 stories of brown
britk and said pastel sheeting. For
every building there is a play area
in the back, a tiny laundry room
and an elevator that is bound to
sound like bad plumbing.
You may take the stairs, if you
wish. The stairways are as narrow
as two men standing together,
hard-sided like concrete guts, and
very steep. Each unit in a given
building is designated by a
combination of the floor number
and a letter for each corridor. The
doors are made of wood covered
with dull beige sheet metal and
below the number there is a metal

corridor, three on each side of the

unpainled concrete and the only
light comes from three or four
bare t&gt;0 Wall bulbs poking from
the ceiling.
There is no ventilation in the
corridor, only a grey slit for
garbage and the metal doors.

windows along one side, two in talk until the sun dies away. In

Reorganization complete
After extensive discussion by
the University College Curriculum
Committee, complete reworkings
by some departments and simple
transformations in others, the
four-course system will be
implemented this fall.
All departments have
reorganized their fall curriculum
as of the present time, according
to Claude E. Welch, dean of
University College. Complete
up-to-date information on
departmental requirements is
available in the reception area of
Diefendorf Hall. There has been
“no simple pattern” of
reorganization according to Dean
Welch, but rather a “wide variety”
including a “profound

Department which will include
the implementation of ten to IS

Q; How and on what basis are students selected for Honors at
commencement?
A; The Offices of the Dean of University College and Admissions
and Records continually keep a listing of all students registered in
department Honors Programs and their overall grade point averages are
calculated in the Office of Admissions and Records. The Honors
Committee, chaired this past semester by Dr. Curtis R. Hare, reviews
this listing and distinguishes among the various kinds of Latin Honors.
Both February and May graduation honors are calculated on the basis
of seven semesters’ work. This has become necessary since the numbers
of students make it impossible to have all of the grades and
calculations completed in time for graduation ceremonies were an
eight semester basis used.
A student whose overall average is at least 3.2 qualifies for Cum
Laudc honors. In order to qualify for Magna Cum Laude honors,
however, the student must be registered in his department’s Honors
Program and earn an overall average of at least 3.5. A student
registered in his department’s Honors Program who earns an overall
average of 3.75 or better is given Summa Cum Laude honors.
Departmental honors are given on three levels, i.e., with Distinction,
with High Distinction, with Highest Distinction. These honors are
given at the discretion of individual departments and are generally
reserved for students within an Honors Program. There are times,
however, when a department wishes to recognize the outstanding
performance of a student who has not been registered in an Honors
Program. If the department petitions the Honors Committee of
University College in this regard, the petition is usually granted.

Q; Why is it that our ID cards have to be used as voting punch
cards as well? Most other schools have separate cards for voting. It
seems after voting enough times your ID card is quite mutilated.
A: You are right in questioning whether another system could be
devised. The problem could become even more acute if the plan
presently under consideration is developed whereby a student retains
the same ID card for four years. The Audio-Visual Department, who
now process the ID cards, indicated they would be glad to cooperate m

�Joint Arab-Israeli student intervi

Similar people with polar positions
In

1948, the

Jews gained

control of Palestine, displacing
one-half million Arabs. The Arabs

and the now Israelis have been at
war ever since.
A rift first appeared in the
previously cohesive Arab-Jewish
relationship when Britain passed
the Balfour Declaration in 1917,
signaling the end of more than
1000 years of Arab habitation of
Palestine. The resolution, passed
in response to the pressures of
immigrating Jews, approved the
establishment in Palestine of a
national home for Jewish people,
on the condition that nothing be
done to prejudice the civil and
religious rights of the non-Jews
living there.
Jews journeyed from Europe
and the Middle East to buy land
and settle in Palestine, and
gradually the economy began
swinging into Jewish control.
Arab-Jewish tension grew day by
day, and Britain, no, longer able to
renege on the Balfour Declaration,
recommended partition of
Palestine into an Arab state and a
Jewish state. Adolf Hitler’s
activities in the West had primed
the world’s sympathy for the Jews
and despite frantic Arab
opposition, the United Nations
brought about a partition of
Palestine in 1947. The Arabs
responded with a call to arms.
Europe rushed arms to the
Jews and the Palestinian Arabs
were defeated. Armies from
neighboring Arab countries drove
towards Palestine’s border in a
second attempt to prevent
partition, but were again repulsed,
owing to the extraordinary
cohesion and spirit of the Jewish
community in Palestine. Palestine
became Israel.
The war of 1948 crystallized
the Arab nation’s disunity and
they burned with a desire to
regain their land and avenge the
defeat of what they felt was a just
cause. The U.N. passed a peace
resolution demanding the return
of the Arab refugees to Palestine,
and the return of the land taken
in the war. Israel refused, and the
Arabs used the refusal to avoid a
peace they didn’t want.
With continuous border
incidents, inland raids and two
more wars in which Israel again
proved victorious, the situation
has emerged into 1969, with
another war apparently imminent.
In the following interview
conducted by Spectrum staff
reporter Jim Panzerella, two Arab
and two Israeli students at the
State University of Buffalo
present
their views on the
conflict.
The

Spectrum; What’s your
grievance against the Israelis?

Jhazi Hamad, Palestine: It's a
question, but as a
Palestinian, I feel the Israelis had
no right to take Arab land and
drive the inhabitants out of
Palestine to make a new home for
Jews from other countries. But
they haven’t stopped there. In the
wars of '58 and '67 they took
more Arab land, and I feel, with
others, that they intend to take
more. I don’t think they’re
justified and I feel the Arab
nations are right in resisting their
complex

expansionism.

George Frankfurter, Israel: We
want peace and the Arabs won’t
let us have it. The problem seems
to stem from certain traits in the
Arab character and which I also
see evident in Arab governments.
They can’t seem to accept defeat,
especially the ones they’ve
suffered at our hands. In spite of
all our victories, they continue to
declare that their goal is to push
us into the sea.
Moshe Ron, Israel: 1 see this
desire for revenge as a major
problem too, and it leads into a
larger problem. The Arabs won’t
negotiate with us because what
they want is military honor, not
land, and that is gained on the
battlefield, not at the negotiating
table.
The Spectrum: Do you feel the
Arabs have a case in claiming the
Israelis stole their land?
Mr. Ron: Before the war of 1948
they had no case whatsoever. The
30% of Palestine which the Jews
occupied, they had bought and
paid for. There’s qo question that
they lost land after the 1948 war.
but they started that. And if they
complain about refugees, let's not
forget the 600,000 Jewish
refugees from Arab countries as a
result of the war.
Mr. Frankfurter: If you consider
the Bible, you’ll see that the Jews
were the original owners of this
piece of land. This is my moral
justification for living over there.
But, the point is, we bought much
of the land from the Arabs. We
paid money Tor it. It wasn’t as if
we invaded as a military force. I
would say the Arab countries who
never lived on this piece of land
invaded us in the war of 1948.
Mr. Hamad: The Israelis will tell
you they had a right to the land
because they had it first. They
never had it first. In Biblical
times, Palestine was not a purely
Jewish state. It was mixed
peoples; then the Jews Were
driven off. Now we’re welcoming
them to live with us peacefully,
but we don’t feel they have any
claim to the land. We don’t want
all of Palestine, just what part is
ours by the U.N. partition plan.
Mr. Alkadhi: I think that the
notion that Palestine is the Jews’

Karim Alkadhi, Baghdad, Iraq:
Our case is simple. The Israelis
took our land and drove out our

people. We will not rest until the
land is returned and the refugees
resettled, and the Israelis cease
their expansionist activities.

they were there 5000 years ago,
how many were there? Just a few
small tribes, living in just a small
corner of the land. The Arabs
were in Spain for five or six
hundred years, about 2000 years
ago. Would we be right in taking
Spain from the Spaniards?
Mr. Hamad; And who lived there
before 5000 years ago? If some
tribes from China spent some time
there, do they have a right to
come and claim the land?
Mr. Alkadhi: I want to mention
here that the news media,
especially in this country, is not
fair in any way. They are not
presenting both sides. The Zionist
point of view is very strongly
oriented here in the U.S. (and all
over the world) and has in its
hands'all the means of
propaganda. Go into the library
and see how many books are
written from the Israeli
standpoint

Israelis are right, but it’s just

in America.
I'm thinking of an example
involving a U.S. observer I don’t
recall his name. He wrote a book
called “A Soldier for Peace,” and
could not find a single reputable

publisher in the United States
who would accept it. Go to the
libraries and try to obtain that
book
it’s as if it doesn’t exist.
The Spectrum: What Arab/Israeli
religious, philosophical or cultural
characteristics are you opposed
to? Do any of these enter into the
conflict?
Mr. Hamad: None. The Arabs get
along better with the Jews
religiously, philosophically and
culturally than any other people.
They even celebrate their holidays
—

together.

Mr. Ron: No, there are no such
factors here. The Arabs are
perhaps closer to the Jews than
any other people. Basically, this is
a conflict over a piece of land; the
land is the booty.
The Spectrum: Do you think your
adversaries have a rational attitude
towards the conflict?
Mr. Frankfurter: Assume, just for
a moment, that the Arabs behave
rationally. Then look at the state
of Israel and its people, and look
at all the Arab states around it.

j ou

may
Compare them and
understand why the Arabs do not
want a state tike Israel to exist.
Israel is a successful,
western-type society, while the
Arab states are backwards,
feudalistic and non-democratic.
The ruling class of the Arab
countries do not want their
people to see a state like Israel;
they fear discontent among the
masses. They use all the
chauvinism and nationalism and
anything they can plant in their
population to condition them into
believing that they have to
destroy the state of Israel. This
results in irrational behavior by
the Arab people.
Mr. Ron: Something is obviously
wrong in the Arab countries. The
population is not satisfied with
what is going on. When a situation
like that exists, the only way to
keep the population down is to
offer them some kind of outlet.
The outlet is Israel and the Jews,
if you saw what happened in Iraq
a few months ago. Half a ihillion
people went to watch the Israeli
bodies hanging there and they all
savored it emotionally, as if they
did it themselves. Now, tell me
this is rational behavior.
Mr. Hamad: The Arabs’
irrationality has been grossly
exaggerated, but I definitely think
the Israelis are rational. That’s
how they’ve managed to take
advantage of us. Everything they
do is calculated. But they are not
looking into the future. Do you
think they’re secure now? The
war’s latest battle is over, but the
war will never be over until there
is justice in the Middle East.
I think the Arabs are basically
rational, but its very hard to be
rational when your home is
stolen, and you are bombed and
shot at. The Israelis “carry a big
stick” towards the Arabs. If an
Arab fires a bullet, they tear down
a whole Arab village. That’s their
policy, and I suppose it’s rational.
Mr. Alkadhi: I don’t think the

Israelis are rational, because
fanaticism is not rational. What’s
the difference between them and
the Nazis? When they find a knife
in an Arab house in Palestine,
police bring explosives and level
the house to the ground. These
are the antics of fanatics.
I don't think the Arabs are

They are very emotional and their
tempers rise fast. But their
tempers subside just as fast, and
more merciful

their loss in blood.

Moot: change is needed
Staff Reporter

Richard E. Moot, candidate for the Republican mayoral
nomination, feels that demands for a 50% integrated work
force in state-funded area construction projects are
“hopelessly doomed to fail” in their present form.
The local lawyer proposes a
plan in which the first year about

10% of the work force would
consist of minority group
members. The following year the
percentage would be increased to
20%, and similar increases would
be made each year until the
ultimate goal of 50% is reached.
This reflects Mr. Moot’s basic
philosophy that you must “walk
before you can run.” The
newcomer to Buffalo politics is
hoping to defeat Councilman-at-Large Alfreda W. Slominski in
the Republican mayoral primary

He says he is “independent of

Awaking apolitical students to inequities in society arid
government usually requires more than arousing professor or
on this campus the recent trial of four of

the "Buffalo Nine" seems to have been exactly what many

revolution?

Sentiment grows
Observing the trial in progress provided the real
awakening for many when at least two government witnesses
reversed their testimonies on the stand, the judge continually
'advised" the prosecuting attorney in his questioning, and
student witnesses presented their moral objections to the
Vietnam war and "U.S. imperialism."
Under these circumstances it is easy to understand why
student sentiment for the defendantsgrew and why the jurors

to reach a decision for three of the four men who
thus received "hung" verdicts.
Not only were the two defense attorneys skillful and
oersuasive in their courtroom presentation, but they also
revealed their radical sympathies as they warned students of
courtroom injustice" and urged them to "keep the fight in
the streets. '
Probably the most unique characteristicof this trial was
that the defendants never attempted to camouflage their
views of the government or the court system.
Unquestionably, this trial involved more than assault
cases - the defendants' political ideologies, which had led to
the alleged assaults, were on trial too. For this reason some
students objected to the actual grounds of the entire case
chanting; "Free the Nine, the Trial's a Crime."
Instead of closing the case, the announcement of the
verdict served to escalate the controversy to include all
problems of the University. What had begun as a community
trial soon became an instrument to activate student unrest ort
the campus.
Reacting to the verdict, students immediately submitted
a list of "demands" to the administration, a strike was
threatened and finally some of the "silent majority" began to
speak
action was then replaced by talk.
Although a subsequent week of teach-ins was
informative for those who had been ignorant of the
inadequacies of University government, those who had been
debating these issues for some time considered these rap
sessions simply more of the same.

They argued that the University

students occupied Hayes Hall for a night, and when they
destroyed construction Project Themis site, they must also
accredit their activity for initiating many of the recent
curriculum reforms and for helping to establish Work For All
and the Communications Center.
These elementary steps played crucial roles in the
attempt to revitalize student interest in campus issues, but if
students are sincere in their call for revolutionary change the

Project Themis construction sheds, occupying buildings until

Although the February trial was not directly related to
the University, hundreds of students traveled downtown daily
and packed the federal courtroom to witness the defense of
four individuals accused of assaulting federal officials in a
church rally last August.
The ensuing scuffle occurred when federal officers
arrived to arrest two draft resisters who had taken "symbolic
sanctuary" from the draft at the Elmwood Ave. Universalist
Unitarian Church for nearly ten days. During the scuffle seven
others were arrested and thus the Buffalo N ine was formed.
Publicized as a government "frame-up" of four active
anti-war leaders, the trial drew not only the merely curious,
but also a growing number of dedicated supporters. The
enormous student turn-out was evidence to many that
students do not intend to remain isolated on campus while
government officials commit actions which seem
questionableand unjust to them.
Throughout the trial, the demonstrations in Niagrara

workers were attempts to "educate the community:" to

In Buffalo, as across the state and nation,
the story has been much the same building
trades unions have refused to integrate and
maintain to this day their traditional
patterns of nepotism. But through the
efforts of Buffalo civil rights groups and
student groups, the picture may change. The
lever has been the new Amherst campus.
There is a resolve in the University that the
campus will be built with an integrated work
force. There is also a resolve in many
students' minds that the campus will not be
built unless the work crews are integrated.
In Buffalo, a look at the statistics shows
just how serious the phenomenon is. even
though there have been serious efforts over
the past decade to break the traditional
'color line." A study completed in 1967
showed that of 13,000 union members, 914
were black. But of that 914,690 blacks were
members of the Laborers Local 210. In the
other 20 unions then there were (and still
are) less than 2% black members. The study
cited was undertaken by the State Division
of Human Rights in reaction to charges filled
by the Citizen's Council on Human
Relations, a Buffalo-based civil rights group.
Since the report. Project Justice came
into existence; a program aimed at locating
minority group workers possessing needed
skills, giving them supplementary training
they might need and presenting them to the
unions for membership. Justice, at a year's
end, had trained 41 blacks. So far 20 have
received union cards, and of the remaining
21, few, if any, have been given the union

Great building project
Coupled with the injustices in hiring that
have gone on is an important fact in the
Buffalo story
the State University is
planning a $600 million campus in nearby
Amherst. The project
which dwarfs any
building project in the Western World (with
the exception of Brasilia)
is expected to
generate directly some $1.8 billion in
4*!’ construction in the impact area.
Work For All, a University student group,
and other civil rights groups in Buffalo are
arguing this: The new construction will
generate at least 5000 jobs in the
construction trades (some estimates go as
high as 9000), and those jobs should go to
Buffalonians. In other instances in the past,
men have been brought in from outside the
area when labor demand was greater than

supply.
For All, along with various
community groups has recommended the
establishment of a training school and a job
access mechanism, to assure trainees access
to the union of their trade.
Work For All is convinced that the state

legislators that Eve's bill would create a

Also, Work For All organized a

The end of February found the State
University of Buffalo campus in turmoil
over the construction issue, secondarily, and
a number of others. "Demands" placed on
the president's desk Feb. 28 resulted in a

University convocation, called by the
president the following Monday. President
Meyerson at that time made his own
'demands' to the University community.

Work for all confronts the Governor

State-wide organizing
March brought a shift in University
activity, signaling the beginning of
state-wide organizing on the issue and an
all-out assault to gain a work moratorium in
Amherst until plans for integrating the
construction force were agreed upon by all
segments of the community.
SUNY student body presidents and
editors received letters from the Student
Association president at State University of
Buffalo and a follow-up letter from Work
For All. Community groups, such as the
NAACP, backed the request to the governor
for a work hah. On March 5, Executive Vice
President Peter F. Regan asked the governor.

University Construction Fund to halt all
work in Amherst. (One $18,000 contract,

Ironically, the University had pushed to
get the contract so that an official
"groundbreaking" involving the governor
could take place. The move was aimed at
getting the governor's commitment for the

years behind schedule due to a site dispute
and other factors) on public record. The

Both seemed upset at The Spectrum story

and the urgency for a moratorium.
Meanwhile, back on the campus,
students, angered by the downtown arrest of
several students and the three-year
conviction of a draft resister the morning of
March 19, wrecked two construction shacks
and occupied the administration building
that afternoon. It was the same day that
President Martin Meyerson made the
University position "unmistakable and
firm' in a wire to the SUCF, Gov.
Rockefeller and Chancellor Gould. The
telegram asked for a
moratorium on construction coupled with
the rapid development of a positive action
program." Although the telegram was sent
before any campus uprising began,
newspapers quickly linked the two and still
maintain that Mr. Meyerson made the
request under student duress. Not so.

No concessions
It's been said since that the minority
representatives were 'shafted.' They went
into a meeting which was-called with the
expressed intent of lifting the moratorium.
Perhaps the SUCF had called it in that way
to get the involved groups to sit down
together. Whatever the reason, the
moratorium lift occurred without any
concessions to the minority community.
The 'lift' was a blow for a number of
reasons; but mainly, it was the only good
weapon the community had to bring the
unions and contractors to terms.
One of the latest developments include a
threat to scrap all state projects in the area
unless the construction industry scalesdown
a proposed 50%-plus increase in wages over
the next three years. The Building Trades
Council and the Construction Industry
Employers Association have tentatively
agreed to such an increase. The
announcement came jointly from Gov.
Rockefeller and Senate Majority Leader Earl
Brydges (R., Niagara Falls).
Minority Coalition, Inc., which has been
representing the interests of the black,
Puerto Rican and Indian communities, is
now ready to sit down with the Buildings
Trades Council and the Construction
Industry Employers Association to
negotiate details of a construction school
and job access mechanism. The group will
probably ask for about 2000 jobs initially.

rick schwab

Minority Coalition is also ready to sign a
with the State University
Construction Fund to establish an
contract

identification program that would locate
non-whites with skills or a potential for skills
in the construction trades.
Work For All has been continuing
statewide organizing, in hopes of raising the
issue at every campus in the state.
As it now stands, the real negotiating for
jobs is in the hands of the
non-white
communities of Buffalo and vicinity. The
victory, when it comes, will be all theirs.

intercollegiate program was funded by the Norton
Union Board, but funds now come out of the student
athletic fee.
With the addition of a new faculty member next
year, a women's golf team will undoubtedly be
organized. Expansion into intercollegiate skiing is also
in the immediate future.
Miss Diebold says there is a "tremendous need"
for a gymnastics team. An active coed gymnasticsdub
is now sponsored by the WFtA, but there is no one
available to coach a team.
The intramural program is rather restricted right
now due to the facilities, but expansion in intramurals
would have to go along with an expanded
intercollegiate program. Competition at varying levels
of skill in a sport would then be open to everyone.
A thletic facilities at the new campus will be “very
adequate," and Miss Diebold feels the department will
be able to run a more complete program. "The success
of the present program is due to the outstanding
coaches and enthusiastic students. Miss Dorothy Haas
has been a sympathetic supporter of the cause by
making money available through Norton Union.
Without her we wouldn't be where we are today."
It should be noted that not all emphasis in the
women's athletic program is on the competitive
aspects After every home game or meet there is a
social hour during which the participants from both
schools can meet on a differentbasis nbt strictly as
competitors, but also as individual human beings
"

Gym hours set
Clark Gym, as everyone knows, has been
outgrown by the campus population, but recently,
attempts have been made to utilize what is available to
the greatest possible extent. A new schedule of open
hours has been instituted; hopefully, these expanded
hours will be carried over into next year.
The Women's Recreation Association (WRA)
plans and carries out
many recreational and special
activities, some of them coed. Miss Jane Poland,
faculty advisor to WRA, terms it a "service group”
which tries to fill the recreational needs of the campus
This year the WRA recreational program included
opportunities such as the Tuesday Night Open House,
held weekly, during which all facilities were open to
women students Other WRA-sponsored events
deluded coed tournaments, a bowling league, bus
trips to other
sports, horseback riding, ice skating,

would be available, the reaction
was one of disbelief. Doc Urich,

head football coach, commented:
This is one boy writing his
opinion and does not state the
policy of the University. I checked
with Albany when I saw the story
and I can say it has nothing to do
with the future of athletics at the
State University of Buffalo." A few
months later, Mr. Urich left
Buffalo for Northern Illinois citing
as one reason for his departure "a
state that is among the worst
nationally in the philosophic and
financial support of competitive

athletics."
The state's position as presented
in a letter to University President
Martin Meyerson and Student
Association President Richard
Schwab pointed out that "from the
state viewpoint . . . intercollegiate
athletics has an extremely low
priority in competition for state
dollars compared with such
programs as low-income housing,
mental hospitals, aid to dependent
children or college scholarships for
needy children."
While the state position was
being made very clear, students,
working through the Student
Polity, began to petition for a
referendum to change the athletic
fees.
In the first referendum held on
Oct. 7-8, a mandatory athletic fee
for the spring semester was passed.
In addition, the Student Athletic
Review Board was created to
investigate how student athletic fee
money was being used.
Urich departure
A second referendum was held
Nov. 8 to set the athletic fee at
$5.50. Athletic Department
officials clamored that the $5.50
fee was not enough to support the
existing program and they forecast
that the entire future program was
in jeopardy. A movement was
started to petition a third
referendum to institute a $12.50
fee.
Urich, who had been actively
looking to get out of the mess, quit
his job as head football coach and
associate director of athletics in
early February, to move down to
the head coaching job at Northern

The victory was made possible by a
large and extensive campus
campaign by the 'Save Our Sports'
committee, whose promotional
material was paid for by an alumni
group.
During the campaign leading to
the referendum, Bob Deming, a
defensive specialist, who has been
associated with the Bulls since
1959, was appointed head football
coach.
The other big personnel change
was the retirement of James E.
Peelle as director of Intercollegiate
Athletics. A crusty, loquacious and
personable figure on the Buffalo
sports scene, Peelle could never
quite get over the fact that the
University was no longer a private,
provincial school of higher
learning, but rather a large State
University.

opinions about the student

The remaining passenger trains
provide service to many cities.

by Alan Gruber

train (except Sunday) to New York City

Tomorrow marks the 100th anniversary
of the completion of the first
transcontinentalrailroad at Promitory
Point, Utah At that same location,
rail officials, civic leaders and hoards

Pacific Railroads, connecting the Atlantic

Buffalo, the nation's second busiest
rail city, reflects the change in
rail traffic. Famous trains such
as thePhaobe Snow, the E mpire State
Express and the Twentieth Century
Limited no longer exist. Buffalo's Central
Terminal, once one of thebusiest,
now resembles a mausoleum. The Lackawanna
Terminal at the foot of Main St. is
diandonad and has been replaced by
a yard office. The Lahitfi Valley
Terminal,built 15 years ago.
Valley Terminal, built IS years ago,
has not seen a passenger train for seven
years.

With the exception of commuter runs and
select intercity routes, railroad passenger
service has a bleak future. Railroads are
trying hard to discontinue passenger
service and they may very well succeed. When
passenger trains aregone, some of the most
scenic routes wilt no longerbe
available. Travelers will have to settlefor a view
of the tops of clouds
or the sidesof highways. A trip by train
takes you through countryside, following
rivers, with an exciting scene aroundevery
nH
curve. Too much IS lost when you
from one city and later drop out of the sky
into another. Half the fun of traveling is
seeing what lies in between, the small towns
with their individual character, farms, lakes
and countryside without billboards, smoke and
decaying civilization. Too often peoplerely

or commuting to a city; it can be a thrilling
experience. The important thing is to try
it before it is too late.

The past hundred yearshave seen great changes
in railroading. Advances in technology and
innovations have opened new markets
and increased the efficiency of rail
transportation. In the fifties,
the trend in railroading changed
with the mood of the country. People were
suddenly in a rush when traveling and took
to the roads and sky. Neighborhood to
neighborhood service as well as one-day
transcontinentalflights drove many
passengers from the trains. The luxury
service available in crack trains was
abandoned for speed. For the most part
railroad management has reacted to this
problem by cutting back service

point of order
by Randall Eng

tforie klein

■ MrJ

When student militants attempt to impress demands
upon the administration of an American university, the
tactics are relatively predictable. A building or two may be
taken over and the police are called in to eject the occupants.
Moderate students, appalled by the use of outside security
forces, rally to the cause of the radicals. The battlefield is
usually confined to the campus, however, and rarely do we
find an overflow into the outside community. Japanese
students would find these activities tame if they could observe
them. The recent disturbances at the University of Tokyo are
an example of what Japanese students can do when they
resolve to accomplish an objective.
The University of Tokyo is the alrtia mater of the
Japanese Establishment. Since the Meji Restoration. This
institution has provided modern Japan with most of its
managerial and technical talent. Competition for entry into
the University of Tokyo is unbeliebeably keen. Students
prepare themselves for years in elementary and secondary
schools in anticipation of the rigorous entrance exams.
When the results are announced each spring, hundreds of
disappointed applicants commit or attempt suicide. A degree
from the University of Tokyo is a virtual guarantee of success
in Japanese society. Those who are forced to go to other
institutions may expect a difficult road ahead.

Mood of anarchy
randall eng

The mood at the U. of Tokyo is not comparable to the
Ivy League mood that one may expect. The students are
radical to the point of anarchy, and this may be due in part to
therigorous course of instruction at the University.
Administrators at the University of Tokyo, as well as
notion of total control on me campus, nitty maintain
academic standards, but they can do little to moderate the
intense radical political behavior of their students. The
students do not even bother to take out their frustrations on
their own schools. They engage in left-wing political activities
throughout Japan and they are not afraid to take their
grievances into the general community.
The United States has long been the favorite target of
Japanese students. They object to the military bases on
Japanese soil and they are opposed to the U.S.-Japanese
mutual defense treaties. Aside from these sore points,
Japanese students are also hostile toward the continued
American occupation of Okinawa.
Japanese of every political persuasion have considered
Okinawa to be an integral part of Japan and they are quite
anxious for the United States to relinquish sovereignty of it.

The anniversary of the American seizure of the island was
observed recently and the students of Japan, particularly
thoseof Tokyo Univarsity, responded appropriately.

Dance into Tokyo
Early in the morning of the day of the anniversary, the
students decked themselves out in helmets and proceeded to
barricade the entrances to the University of Tokyo. The
police stood by as the militants piled huge quantities of wood
and other building materials on the roadways and the
entrances. Using the campus as a base of operations, the
students snake-danced their way into the heart of Tokyo aid
confronted the police on the main thoroughfares.
The police, armed with wicker shields and tear gas.
charged the students repeatedly and kept them from the mad
business district. The helmeted students erected more
barricades on the streets and hurled rocks and bricks at the
police. This familiar Japanese scenario was played through
without any fatalities or serious injuries.
Demonstrations of this type have become so familiar to
the Japanese that both sides know theirroles very well. There
are seldom any incidents remmkent of the Chicago
convention since the riot police are very well disciplined and
organized. The students also act with similiar restraint and do
nothing to provoke any stronger reaction than tear gas.
As evening fell, the street fighting continued and the
student bands managed to push their way into Tokyo s famed
entertainment district, the Ginza. They completely disrupt

It is of interest perhaps to consider the

and grooving all school year. There we may
have the beginnings of something which in

promise in the number of people who are

�summertime... spread dem wings'
It is the end of a year of many beginnings and few
endings; of many resolutions, but few solutions; of many
responses to threats, yet few acceptances of challenges;
of ground being broken for the construction of a
structure whose form and stability remain uncertain.
The year is over, by decree of the University
Calendar. For most students, thrown arbitrarily into
mothers' laps in awkward, slightly out-of-focus
flashbacks of younger days, the summer is a kind of
official time-out. After the intermission, we're to return
to our places. A new year won't begin until September.
An active minority of students, faculty and
administrators here, however, will be working behind the

scenes during this summer's intermission.

■

-

In dozens of issues crucial to the University,
decisions will be made and actions initiated during
Buffalo's short hot summer. In many instances, the
success or failure of these activities will have significant
bearing on the success or failure of the University.
Work For All, or none at all
Despite the optimistic

facade displayed by the
University planners regarding the dispute among local
construction unions, contractors and minority groups
over hiring opportunities in the University construction
in Amherst, present progress in this area warrants at best
realistic pessimism.
Institutionally racist labor practices, simmering
Amherst parochialism and rightfully obstinate minority
groups are all hard at work for their best interests. The

construction effort to pry the lid off construction
unions; unless this first step is realized, the $750 million
Amherst construction will never be able to fulfill its
promise of renewed vigor for the stagnating Western
New York economy.
Even if the high but un I o werable construction
contract hurdle is cleared, a past record of broken
architectural and engineering deadlines suggests that the
•first six Colleges will be delayed at least until 1971.
And if the $100 million/a year building schedule is
followed to the letter, there is still a great danger that
the State University will construct the prettiest piece of
educational mediocrity in the nation. Buildings may be
built overnight, but excellent facilities and relevant
educational. programs are not; legislative trends portend
little support for the latter. Further, unless students and
key faculty are involved to a drastically increased degree
in the planning of Amherst, the new campus could be
monumentally dysfunctional.

Student housing squeeze
The drastic dormitory fee increases which begin this
fall pose serious handicaps to the University students.
They not only force many students on limited income
out of the dormitories, but also most likely will have a
serious inflationary effect on the already-spiraling
apartment rates in the area. Rent cooperatives, tenant
unions and rent controls are potential tools which must
be investigated immediately by groups of far-sighted
students. The delay in the construction of the six

II

Defense research
While a State-imposed freeze on construction and
leasing prevents the University from providing not only
housing but also office or classroom space for its
students and faculty, the THEMIS construction
continues. The defense-sponsored physiological research
center's special priority, even among other biomedical
research proposals, indicates the subtle direction of
University policies by a particularly repugnant external
agency.

The predominant influence of the almighty buck in
such instances suggests that the oft-applied notion of
academic freedom needs to be carefully reevaluated. The
University faculty must discard their exhibited
reluctance to interrupt their personal careers, and
consider their urgent social responsibilities.
Last summer, the Faculty Senate removed the ban
on military recruiters, supposedly in the light of the
proven ambiguity of a Gen. Hershey Selective Service
directive. At the same time, however, a federal law went
into effect prohibiting the awarding of future National
National Aeronautical and Space Administration and
other aerospace contracts to universities which ban
military recruiters. A faculty/student research
committee should be established this summer to prepare
a report for the full Senate in the fall on University
research policies; the improprieties of last summer must
not be repeated.

I guess the heresay I am trying to dispense this
week is that maybe there ought to be a middle of the
road position between complete avoidance and
complete total involvement, between unreasoning
acceptance of anybodies position and complete
rejection because of an ideological generalization.
I’m saying, that since the university doesn’t help
much it is hard, but it is still possible to be your own
person. It may make life a little tight at times but
you don’t really care about such trifles as money,
food and other outward materialistic manifestations
of a dying and decadent culture. (Ungers’ Restaurant
on the corner of Bailey and Delevan has some fine
German food, potato pancakes and sauerbraten
especially, and they don’t hassle beards . . haven’t
yet?)
I guess my confusion is clear enough for this
semester. Good luck to those of you who have lived
through four years of this drive without rotting your
minds. (1 told you it wasn’t contagious.) Hope all
goes well for all of you, world-beaters and perennial
students too, have a good summer and knock them
dead, especially in Washington. (The last line should
in no way be interpreted as urging the violent
overthrow of the duly constituted government of the
United States. Wait Til next year).

Nixon administration shows
its colors to ‘academic left’
When
WASHINGTON (CPS)
Richard Nixon was campaigning
for the Presidency, and later was
elected, a wave of repression was
predicted to befall the academic
left community. In its first
hundred days, the new
administration has managed, if
not to fulfill that prediction, at
least to show where its sympathies
lie.

few times, his lackeys and
underlings persist in carrying out
policies that fit his philosophy.

One of the manifestations of
Nixon’s Oppressed Society is the
indictments against anti-war
demonstrators during the Chicago
Democratic Convention. For the
first time, federal anti-riot laws
were invoked to harass, prosecute
and possibly imprison eight
so-called leaders of the protest.

The Justice Department, which
prepared the indictments, has also
been keeping a watchful eye on
campus uprisings to see if anyone

lines to foment the “riots."’
Deputy Attorney General Richard
Kleindeinst has been quoted as
saying demonstrators should be

the McCarran Act.

Attorney General John
Mitchell has also spoken out on
student rebels, saying he was
confident the law could be

have stepped up their surveillance
of leftist groups, off-campus and

week that he had infiltrated the

Selective Service Director Lewis
B. Hershey has promised to
continue reclassifying anti-war

On the hundredth day of his
administration, Nixon dropped by
the annual convention of the U.S.
Chambers of Commerce to warn
the businessmen of the “new
revolutionary spirit and action"
among college and high school

which spanned the latter half of
the 17th century. Drama and
music, as well as painting,
sculpture, mathematics and
philosophy, flourished during that
golden age of the arts, and the
program has been designed to
display some of the period’s

artistic genius.
Selections from the classical
tragedies of Racine and Corneille,
and the great comedies of
character by Moliere will be
presented along with musical
works by French Baroque
composers Rameau, Couperin and
Gaspard Le Roux.
Jean-Louis Barrault’s stage
career, which has spanned a
period of almost 40 years, has

been marked by performances in
operas and films as well as stage
plays. Characterized as a true
Renaissance man, Mr. Barrault
also became known for his ability
as a mime, and his talent for
theatrical directing and staging.
One of his most memorable roles
was that of Baptiste in the classic
“Les Enfants du Paradis."
Mme. Renaud. like her
husband, was a member of the
Comedie Francaise and has acted
in a long list of comedies and
dramas. In 1964 she was awarded
the Prix de la Meillcur Actrice and
in 1965 the Medaille de Vermeil
de la Ville de Paris. Her
government has also decorated her
as Officer de la Legion d’Honneur
and Commandeur des Arts et des
Lettres.

The New York Chamber
Soloists
two voices, two winds,
five strings and two keyboards
allow an unusual flexibility in the
group’s repertoire, which extends
from Renaissance to modern
music. They have performed at
concerts throughout the United
States and their five European
tours have included the major
capitals of Europe. Their activities
also include a wide range of
educational seminars and master
classes on many college and
university campuses.
The New York Chamber Solists
and the acting team of Barrault
and Renaud have presented
programs similar to the one
scheduled for May 14 at the
University of California, Princeton
University and Hunter College.

the

revolutionized this campus and
left a legacy of ferment
nationally.

The leading black organization
at San Francisco State when Mr.
Garrett came was the Negro
Student Association, a mild social

relic left over from the
fermentless years before the ’60s.
The only other focus for blacks
on campus was the quiescent
Negro fraternities and sororities.
Black rage was muted.
Mr. Garrett changed all that.

He moved in With a lot of ideas
and brass. In 1966 he fathered a
Black Students Union (BSU), the
first in the country. And he
forged one of the nation’s first
black studies programs. He was
one of the first young black
campus revolutionaries.

National influence grows
By the time he left San
Francisco State in the spring of
1968, the college was not the
same. Five months later it was
embattled in a student strike
launched by the BSU that was to
last 4'/2 months.
Mr. Garrett’s legacy now is
national. BSUs are centerposts of
minority ferment in schools
around the country. Even as this
is written, blacks of other BSUs
are occupying administration
buildings in the East.
And on campuses all over,
blacks, browns and Orientals, now
in common cause, are pushing
militantly for black and ethnic
studies they can control.
Today, Elmer Cooper, San
Francisco State’s young black
associate dean of student
activities, says: “The BSU is the
strongest student organization on
this campus, bar none.”
That can be said now of BSUs
on other campuses, too. Few
organizations ever have had more

lightning-like impact.
What are the BSUs? Who runs
them? What have they done?
The BSU here was the first in
the nation. After Mr. Garrett

started spawning programs and
pushing policies, which collided
headlong with administration
policies and traditions.

‘BSU broke the mold'
As one administrator

here
admits: “The BSU broke the mold
as far as student protest is
concerned.”
It moved here as it is moving
nationally
on two fronts. It
badgered the administartion to
enroll more blacks. And is pushed
for a black studies program.
Under soft-speaking Mr.
Garrett’s hand it was militant,
noisy and demanding from the
start. It flat out called the
administration racist. It jarred the
-

campus.

Reginald Major, one of the
state’s new black administrators,
says that “one of the things in
style prior to the BSD here was
this whole thing of not
mentioning racism. You couldn’t
call anybody racist. That meant
you couldn’t deal with your own
convictions. The BSU broke that.
It had no reverence for authority
of any kind. It developed a hostile
aggressive style, which became its
most potent weapon.”
Blacks, many of them
holdovers from the halcyon days
of the Negro Students
Association, became different
overnight. The leadership of the
BSU, much of it springing from
moderate middle-class Negro
families, became militant and

militant Black Panther Party, was
an English teacher on campus and
an active leader of the black
movement at San Francisco State.
He was a minister’s son. He was
fired for urging blacks to arm
themselves and later sent to jail
for practicing what he preached.
Like many of the blacks on
this campus, Mr. Murray
embraced the ideas of Mad
Tse;tung. —He began to carry
around a volume of the
Communist Chinese leader’s red
book. Quotations of Chairman

Mr. Garrett has said he

Murray. He walked around
clutching a Bible in the same way.
This black affinity and other

Communist revolutionary figures
such as Mao, Che Guevara, and
Fidel Castro, causes critics to tag
them as Communists.
Yet most observers close to the
scene here deny that is so. They
say blacks and other minority
militants admire such figures not
because they are Communists but
because they are revolutionaries.
A1 Wong, a militant young
Chinese-American leader and ally
of the blacks here, Waves aside the
Communist charge and says: “We
are not tied down to any one
philosophy or doctrine. But we do
relate to figures who have taken
up the struggle for liberation for
their people and achieved it.
“That’s why we relate to their
writings. They provide us with
guidelines. We don’t copy them.

with muddy brown as the two
teams battled to reach their
opponent’s goals. Some of the
fancy footwork lost itself in the
slush, but the outcome was
obvious. The ball slithered ahead
until two opposing players almost
reached it at the same time. (It
could be soccer, you say?) They
stopped at the ball and bent over,
as if to pick it up. (Football,
maybe?) Some other players
arrived and hooked arms, and

The

street fight (according to some

observers) and a lot of fun, is
called rugby. The similarity to
other sports is due to the fact that
rugby “happened” in 1823 during
a “football” (soccer) game in
Rugby, England. A schoolboy
player named William Webb Ellis
picked up the ball during a game
and ran over the goal line with it.
The score was not allowed, but
the idea of running the ball caught
on.

Rugby became so popular in
the decades following that in
1863 the Football Association
was formed in London to make
and maintain a distinction
between soccer and rugby
football.
In the United States, Harvard,
Rutgers, Princeton, Columbia,
Yale and McGill University
(Canada) were playing rugby by

Rugby football continued to
gain international popularity. It
spread to every continent and was
included for a time in the
Olympic Game program. The

1924 Olympics marked a peak for
rugby in the United States as the
team brought home the

championship.
Club rugby
Today in the United States,

rugby operates on a club level.
Teams are usually associated with
a university, a city or an
organization.
The Buffalo rugby club is not

Department, but operates out of

doesn’t wish to go varsity. Its

There is no formal coach, so

participated in that cold, snowy
rugby match against the
University Of Rochester rugby

conversions, field goals and
penalty kicks. A try is similar to a
touchdown in that the player
carries the ball across the goal
line, but it is different because as
the player makes the try, he must
thrust the ball downwards. A try
is worth three points and is
followed by a conversion attempt,
which is a placement kick similar
to the point-after-touchdown in a
football game.

A field goal, worth three

through the uprights.
The penalty kick, which is a
placement kick worth three
points, is awarded to the injured
team for any gross infraction of
the rules, such as forward passing
or blocking. It is interesting to
note that tackling is allowed while
blocking is not.
The only necessary equipment
for rugby is the ball
which
looks like a fat football. Players
wear shorts, boldly colored
“rugby” jerseys, spikes and
sometimes shin guards.
The ball may be advanced by
carrying (as in football), kicking
(as in soccer), or lateral passing.
Forward passing, even if
unintentional, receives a penalty,
which can be taken either as a
penalty kick or as a scrum.

The scrum
No hands are allowed in the
scrum, which is the most frequent
means of putting the ball in play.
Players hook arms together,
forming two opposing blocks and
each team tries to get possession
of the ball by kicking it out of the

to teammates waiting
behind to move the ball
downfield. “Scrum" refers to this
setup in which the teams fight for
possession of the ball.
Rugby players must have

scrum

time-oufs.
Injuries are few. As Jeff Gers
of the Buffalo rugby club put it;
“You don't go out to break,
people’s necks. You try to get
everyone into the game and have
fun.”
Rugby is a spontaneous game
and very informal. It's a tradition
for the host team to throw a party
after the game for the visiting
team, where the discussion usually
centers on the game. Personal
social contact with the opposing
players is one of the advantages of
this informality.
Buffalo’s rugby club has
attracted about 30 members, who
probably “discovered” rugby in
muchch the same way as Jeff: "I
went out to see what it was like
and fell in love with it!" He said
that there is still room on the
team for anyone
who is
interested. All you need is
enthusiasm for a really fun sport.

is concerned because the

believes we have some excellent

”

Those two excerpts from Spectrum editorials written last
semester in the aftermath of the beating of the Urban Action
Six ring just as true today as a half-year ago. Then it was
Precinct Six. Now it’s Precinct Four.
However, the series of editorials at the time made the
false assumption that the act of mass beatings in a Buffalo
Police precinct was an aberrant act. Concerted efforts by
various community groups failed to yield even an
investigation into the incident at Precinct Six. Yet several
months later, the precinct had a new captain, and another
serious brutality case. At that time, in an unprecedented
move, the new captain asked for, and got, the transfer of
two men involved. (He said he did not ask for their dismissal
because he knew he could not get it.)
The Spectrum had. in the carter case, prepared an
information packet about the incident, which was sent with
a cover letter to local and state law enforcement officials and
community groups urging an investigation. It was
perfunctorally ignored.
Based on a complaint by the local chapter of the
American Civil Liberties Union, the Federal Bureau of
Investigation is now investigating that Precinct Six incident,
for the alleged violation of the youths’ civil rights.
The most recent (and most blatantly brutal) incident of
police brutality,, at Precinct Four, as reported in today’s
Spectrum, has also come under the eye of the federal agents.
FBI men took dozens of pictures of the injured parties
earlier this week, and interviewed them.
The reason our letters did little good in the earlier
incident was that we were not operating under the
assumption that police violence is a recurring pattern of
police behavior, particularly in the ghetto, which is carefully
condoned by police as well as local governmental officials.
We certainly hope the federal investigation is fruitful,
yielding a grand jury investigation of the entire police
department. It is important to note, however, two things:
investigations’ hold little respect among growing
numbers of blacks in the ghetto. Regular acts of violence by
police against blacks and Puerto Ricans have bred nothing
but contempt for anything ‘official’ or more exactly, ‘white.’
In the past year alone, the civil liberties union has been told
of more than 80 instances of police brutality in Buffalo.
Police arc not only symbolic of authority, but also
symptomatic. Purges of the police force will not alter
significantly the character of the job, particularly in the
ghetto; the cops, acting in the ghetto as mercenaries of an
imperialist power, will not change until the white power
structure docs.

Editorial policy is determined by the Edilor-in-Chief.

Editor's note: The following is an excerpt from an
article by Todd Gillin appearing in the April 12,
1969 issue of The Guardian following the acquittal
of the Oakland Seven.
Most consistently: “Freedom of speech, that
was the great issue,” as Ulysses Peters said. All other
jurors spoken to thus far agree. In one way or
another, they all ended up pitting a weak, imprecise
prosecution case against the liberal tradition,
summoning up the First Amendment, as a reporter
later wrote, like “some half-forgotten civics lesson,”
like some underground well of energy surging to the
surface once the legalistic pressures were lifted.
Freedom of speech. First Amendment: several
jurors say they are standing up to their apathetic
friends and neighbors now, for the first time. Some
admire the courage of the seven, and wish they could
propel themselves from the clocklike regularity of
their lives into antiwar action. They have decided to
hold an annual reunion. One woman, an electronics
company bookkeeper who in voir dire said she had
seen TV coverage of Stop the Draft Week and
wondered why the antidraft demonstrators were “so
passionate,” is now reading Eldridge Cleaver’s “Soul
on Ice” and antiwar anthology, and wants the seven
to give her other reading suggestions.

Inhumane ‘games’
To the editor.

I think students on this campus should
reconsider what kind of events are most fitting to
sponsor, in light of the humanistic education in
which we are supposed to be participating.
Last Friday we tried to put a halt to the greased
pig contest. Three of us at the scene were amazed at
the response we got when we explained why we
thought that it was inhumane and insensitive to
terrorize, grease, run with and drop the pigs. Just as
one would not allow that to happen to one’s dog so
it should not be allowed to happen to any animal.
Those who defended such activities in the name
of fun, entertainment, and the rights of the sponsors,
said that the pigs would not be hurt. But there is no
guarantee of that. At least the pigs were terrified and
exhausted.
The ASPCA representative was called, but did
not show up in time. We should have been able to
make a moral judgement on this ourselves, and
decided against having the event.
The basic question here is what kind of student
are we developing who enjoys the sight of one of
those “contests” against animals. It is a
manifestation of how we have been brutalize
made insensitive to life, regardless of the torn
takes
Terry K

But another antiwar acquitter, who invokes
Jefferson, Franklin, Lincoln, as prior conspirators by
prosecutor Lowell Jensen’s standards, who yet
would have convicted the seven if the charge had
been conspiracy to shut down the Induction Center,
who cannot (yet?) square his patriotic passion with
his rational-legal role
this man says he would
campaign for Jensen if he decided to seek public
office.
You can call it a contradiction.
But the time of the First Amendment
protection seems to be passing. The drive against
corporate recruiting and war research,
self-determination strikes, street action, not to
mention sabotage, all work against at least orthodox
interpretations of the right to freedom of speech.
The thrust of the new left is not 20th century
Americanism, not in any comprehensible sense
anyway. We have yet to sort out our traditions,
an

“Department

One question for Mr. James Brennan, is he for
real? I just can’t believe that any open-minded,
intelligent person could have written the review that
he wrote on Miss Nyro’s concert (which obviously
excludes him from the aforementioned category).
How anyone could call the molding of a person's
soul into (lowing octaves of dynamic sound onh
“phrenetic” and “forced,” I’ll never know. And hrs
comparison of Miss Nyro to Judy Garland was really
nauseating. Mr. Brennan seems to lack the ability to
separate sincerity from garbage. He also seems to
lack a background in music, or at best, even a token
familiarity with the constantly changing tempos that
are indicative of Miss Nyro’s style. As for his
comments on her stage presence, 1 get the feeling
that he came to see a bejeweled manequin, with a
48-inch chest, balance her piano on her nose while
playing with her left big toe. Stage presence, while
important, should not be the only item in a
performer’s repetoire. Miss Nyro’s sincerity when she
walks around the stage (to judge whether she is
getting through to the audience or not) and her
breezy wisp of a speaking voice, are an unusual, but
very pleasant change from the norm. Biff Rose, on
the other hand, though entertaining, had a violent
case of the “cutes” which didn’t quite make up for
his total lack of a singing voice in my mind.
If Mr. Brennan is ever fortunate enough to attend
another of Miss Nyro’s concerts, I suggest he put in a

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

�Polity ‘committee’ votes no on
motion to censure Siggelkow
by Mark turner

Spectrum Staff Reporter^

Acting as a committee of the whole, the Polity refused
tp condemn and censure Richard Siggelkow, vice president
few student affairs, for allegedly slandering the University
community on the “Mind Over Myth” program. The vote of
91 to 66 was taken at a meeting Monday In Haas Lounge.

In response to a question about
campus disorders. Dr. Siggelkow
had said: “It’s the radical facist
left. It’s a tragedy that this group
is able to drive wedges between
the Faculty Senate and the
Student Association. It’s only 25
to 30 people all of whom are not
students.
“I wasn’t at the site (Themis),”
Dr. Siggelkow continued. “I saw

Rican students at the University

Also speaking on the show was
Rick Schwab, ex-president of the
student association, who
explained: “There is a real
commitment on the part of the
State University system to
implement the Black students in
it.”
A recording of Mr. Austin was
also part of the program. He
commented; “The Left has had
that great an impact on our
campuses because the majority of
students didn’t care ehough
.If
the University was turned over to
the students tomorrow, by 12
o'clock noon, we would have
chaos. We want to look back at
college and say we had some part
of the • implementations of
reforms.”
Dr. Siggetkow followed him by
expressing his views that “much
of the problem has been from the
press and television, who have
high-lighted the action of a few,
rather than the every-day,
ordinary students.’’

After it has really
it seems even less
than when it was

predicted.

To millions of French people it
does not yet seem credible that
France must find its way into the
future "alone.’’ That is, without
the ever-exciting, often
perplexing, sometimes infuriating,
but seemingly
inevitable
leadership of Charles de Gaulle.
“A new page in our history will
be turned,” Premier Maurice
Couve de Murville said on learning
of the defeat of the de Gaulle
reform plan in the referendum of
April 27.
General de Gaulle said simply:
“1 cease to exercise my functions
of President of the republic. That
decision takes effect today.”
He made his announcement at
his farm in Colombey-les-deux-Eglises at ten minutes
past midnight or “zero hour ten
minutes” on April 28. It was at
Colombey that the general spent
nearly 12 years of political

"exile," what he called his “bitter
solitude" between 1946 and
1958.
So now a stunned France is
preparing to elect a new president
in place of Charles de Gaulle June
1 with a second round of voting if
needed June 15.
The political parties are busy
choosing their candidates and
considering alignments.
The foremost candidate seems
sure to be President de Gaulle’s
former Premier, George

Pompidou.

Meanwhile, a

been called at Hotel
Matignon, the Premier’s official

residence, instead of at the Elysee
Palace where President de Gaulle
was accustomed to preside.
All this because France had
given a clear “non” to the two
questions for which the April 27
referendum demanded a single
answer. How many votes that
maladroit presentation of the
reform program cost General de
Gaulle probably will never be
known.
“The gravity of the event will
be quickly realized,” Mr. Couve
de Murville told the French
people at 10:45 p.m. April 27.
While he was saying this,
millions of French people were
already asking themselves:
How was it possible that they
had been able to let General de
Gaulle go, as he told them he
would, over issues on which
history may yet prove him right?
How they could do this after
clinging frantically to him only
last summer? At that time he had
publicly admitted that the 1968
May-June social explosion had
been brought on partly by his
own government’s profound
mistakes.

saying that they do not

But the general's opponents
needed only the “two-questionsone-answer” theme to sow
perplexity in the nation. They

explained this in his television

that the proposed regional

needed to have the same
structure. Hence the connection
between the question on
regionalism and the question
about displacing the Senate with a
similarly chosen national
organization.
Many French people who had

the exact opposite he can’t sing,

Performing as if behind a stone

And when she sings it’s phrenetic
and sometimes forced as if all her

the "Stone Soul Picnic” style.

Her vocal timing appeared to
be off at the Saturday night
concert as she raced herself a bit

Biff Rose on the other hand

Vocally he sings like John

he writes clever material like Tom

In a song, “Molly,” dedicated
to Glenn Yarbrough, Biffy opens
his childlike eyes to a “cotton

composition about an entertainer

Molly, but needs only to close
those same eyes to go to her.
“To Baby” was another
romantic ballad about a young

joys with his girlfriend, and then
she leaves him to go and find her
own fame. He was poignant, but
not reeking with phoney

this mixed bag concert left the

With all the subtlety of U
Thant picking his nose and anal
passage at the same time, the
Mothers of Invention taught an
over-appreciative audience just
what type of musical crap they
really “dig.” They did this by
playing some of the most
progressive and engrossing
“modern” music which fell
somewhere between the John
Cage and Bill Haley and the
Comets idiom.
Kicking off the evening were a
pair of aspiring young singers

called “Tom and Jerry.” A few of
their songs have been aired
locally: Sounds of Silence, At the
Zoo, Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and
Thyme and most recent release
‘The Boxer.” They seemed best
suited for the folk idiom. Yet
their obvious struggling with
several early Everly Brothers’
tunes and a sloppy version of
“Earth Angel” enhanced the
evening before Professor Zappa
and his entourage of United
Mutations made themselves
noticeable to the audience.

other than those fantastic leaders

Garfunkel. They just happened to
be in the area at the time and

almost stammers at the sight of
lanky Art Garfunkel and pudgy
Paul Simon weaving their way
between Frank Zappa and his
music is an obvious
understatement.

Bulls split doubleheader
with St Bonaventure

Baseball sages often use
the old adage, “Look for
strength up the middle.” as a
rule-of-thumb for predicting
success. Buffalo’s middle is
getting spread pretty thin.

were four other meet
records set. Randy Smith, who
finished second to Zoeller in the
triple-jump, showed his versatility
by setting a meet and field long

College Saturday.

Football team impressive
annual spring practice game
Bob Denting, new head football coach, was a very happy
man following his first spring practice game. He had good
reason to be as the Blues beat the Whites 36-19, coming
from behind to score 28 points in the second half.
A crowd of 2042 were on hand to witness the
impressive showing. The Bulls appeared to be in good
physical shape and mental errors were kept to a minimum.
There were a number of
surprises in the game as many
players were involved in position
changes.
One of the more pleasant
surprises had to be safetyman
Dick Horn in his debut as split
end. Horn, switched to split end
prior to spring practice, snared
five passes good for 7X yards and
one touchdown. The scoring play
came on a 45-yard bomb from
quarterback td Perry.
Another pleasant surprise was
the work of sophomore
quarterback Kirk Barton. Playing
for the Blue team, the Endicott
native completed nine of ten
passes for 111 yards and two
touchdowns with one
interception.
The Blue opened the scoring
midway through the first quarter
as fullback John Faller carried the
ball over from a yard out and Bob
Carnevale, who kicked for both
teams, added the conversion.

Five plays later, the Blue team
added two more points when
Larry Hart of the White team,
standing on his own I 5-yard line
to punt, fumbled the snap from
center into the end zone for a
safety.
Senior

quarterback Mick
Murtha got the While team on the
scoreboard twice before the end
of the first quarter. He connected
with halfback Pat Patterson for a
63-yard bomb and followed a
blocked pass deep inside Blue
territory, he led the team to pay
dirt on three plays. Carnevale
missed the point-after-touchdown
and the half ended with the White
team holding a 13-9 lead.
In the second half, the White
team added a quick touchdown,
but after that it was all Blue.

Blue team dominates

Barton connected with Horn
three times on a nine-play drive

with Terry Endress catching
Barton’s five-yard aerial for a
score. An attempted two-point
conversion by Barton failed and
the White team led at the end of
third quarter, 19-1 5.
An 18-yard touchdown pass
from Barton to Endress plus a
Carnevale conversion put the Blue
team out in front, 22-19.
The final Blue scores came on
interception by Dan
an
Yankabush and a Perry-to-Horn
bomb that covered 45 yards. Horn
returned to his old position as a
defensive back to thwart a late
drive by the White team as he
intercepted a Murtha aerial.
Deming was pleased with both
teams’ performances after the
game. He was especially happy
about the receivers. “They
couldn’t catch the ball all spring
in practice,” Deming said, “and
today they couldn’t drop it.”
Besides Horn and Endress,
Dennis Waggoner, Paul Dorich and
Joe Moresco looked impressive
catching the ball.
Another source of pride for
Deming was the work of Mike
Luzny. Out of action last year
through injuries, the one time
All-East selection looked
impressive.

Netmen on winning streak
The tennis Bulls have upped
their winning streak to seven
Erie Tech, Canisius and
Cortland State. Erie Tech was
shut out twice, 9-0 and Canisius
went under 8-1. Saturday
Cortland State offered more
resistance but Buffalo won, 6-3.

He’s off!

Decimated by injuries to the
first two catchers, the shortstop
and the centerfielder. the Bulls’
lack of depth was quite apparent
as they split a doubleheader with
the Brown Indians of St.
Bonaventure University Friday in
Olean.
Using an outfielder at second
base and down to their
third-string catcher. Buffalo blew
several opportunities with costly
errors and finally ended up on the
short side of a 6-5 score in the

hit by a pitch, advanced on an
error and scored on Tom Finger’s
sacrifice fly. The infield fell apart
in the last half of the inning,
however, as a questionable hit and
three errors gave Bona two runs
and the win.

�De Gaulle resigns
-continued from page 3-

Executivt check threatened

And why at this moment did
the general choose to “gamble"
with his leadership, which in the
eyes of these supporters was
important not only to Charles de
Gaulle but to them and to the
whole country?
Another reason for the
referendum defeat was that the
proposed reforms ran head on
into entrenched conservative
interests, as well as old-style
liberalism, as this existed between
1870 and 1940 in the long-lived
Third Republic. These interests
have traditionally been defended
in the French Senate.

Pompidou emerges

Meanwhile, Gaulists, who are a
very diverse collection of
politicians if left to themselves,
have tended lately to draw away
from their unifying force, the

.

personal prestige of General de
Gaulle. They have done this partly
because a possible new leader
-

and a true party leader which the
has
general never wished to be
-

emerged.

This leader is Mr. Pompidou.

Middle-road politics seen

for his easy
democratic manner among many
of the so-called “ordinary folk” of
France. He is trusted because of
his banking and commercial
background by many of France’s
businessmen, including those who
have complained most bitterly
about General de Gaulle’s
attitudes toward business. He is an
attractive television personality in
an age when this medium is
central to political success.
At the same time the regional
reform program and the Senate
controversy
have shown

possibilities for new and broader
political alignments.
And for the first time in many
years there seems to be a “safe”
alternative to Gaullism. It is not
leftist, not in danger of being
exploited by Communists. It is,
on the contrary, a possible large
middle-road grouping of parties,
representing big and small French
business and certain conservative
and moderate professional classes.

‘No way! A1 Dragone’

Polity power

To the editor.

The Polity form of government is an exciting thing with a
great deal of potential for meaningful action. Lately, it hasn’t
seemed that way.

Alfred Dragone, The Spectrum staff reporter
who reviewed “Bits and Pieces,” was quite correct
when he stated that his “literary credentials may be
less impressive than Tate’s.” Tate, recall. Was 4
former poet laureate of England.
The entire article was overly opinionated and
displayed like and dislike of personalities. In fact the
whole review “was hampered by a rather
inauspicious start.” The criticism of "Bits and
Pieces,” however, did suffer from extremely poor
journalism. Since the article was alledgedly being
written under the heading of criticism, the offending
writer can cop out and say he was being overly and
incorrectly sarcastic in the name of truthful
all the truth that fits and some that has
reporting
been a fabrication. No way! Alfred Dragone
he
doesn’t use his middle initial in his byline because it
is a ‘B’ which probably stands for belligerent
managed by what can loosely be termed as his

Instead of action, we have seen reaction. Instead of
positivism, we have seen only that which is negative.

A Polity whose sole function is to condemn is neither a
promising or a very appealing prospect. If the Polity deems
others ill-advised, it has the ability to educate. Where it sees
injustice or inequity, it has the power to right it. There is room
for creative initiative, but so far no one has taken it.

Perhaps we can chalk it all off to “the end of the year,”
however a Polity that continues to consider itself a
combination behavioral review board and judiciary is not only
violating its own Constitution but sowing the seeds for its
own rapid demise as a viable form of student'government.

Drawing the fine line

Said Sheriff Thomas V. Ryan of the incident: “I think
these were essentially good kids who had a little too much
sun and too much beer and just let loose.” Consequently,
the severest charge against any is disorderly conduct. A few
others were arrested on traffic violations.
The youths were ail white and ranged in age from 15 to
19 years. Good clean kids having a little fun on a Sunday
afternoon.
Had they been black, it would have been a race riot, and
chances are, they would have been more than “persuaded”
by Sheriff Ryan to pick up some of their mess.
Had they been students, it would have been yet another
militant transgression of the law and order of society.

Perhaps Sheriff Ryan has greater insight than us all to be
able to tell the difference between what is harmless Sunday
afternoon, and a threat to society Monday morning, when
the “transgressors” happen to be students or blacks.

disappointing efforts, by Eugene McCarthy
heightened the feelings of anxiety and rejection
among most of the nation’s youth. No one could
help but notice the conspicuous absence of campaign

materials and discussion which prevailed upon this
campus. Perhaps that silence was an accurate sign of
the times.
In December the University saw one of its most
violent reactions to any speaker or speakers. The
egging of Councilman Lewandowski and Donald
Jackson during a panel discussion illustrated the
enormous bitterness which existed on this campus. I
had no sympathy at all for the two speakers but I
did lament the passing of democratic process at this
University. We did a great disservice to ourselves by
silencing men who came to exchange ideas. No
matter how repugnant those ideas were, we were the
ones to suffer because we could not hear them. Let’s
hope that we can grow enough to prevent this kind
of travesty from occurring again.
This was also the year of Bruce Beyer and the
Buffalo Nine. The conviction of Beyer and the
subsequent response by the Committee to Transform
U.B. triggered a movement which threatened to
divide the University and increase its vulnerability to
outside intervention. We can all be thankful that this
campus was not transformed into a battlefield in the
vein of Wisconsin or San Francisco State. In the
confrontation which occurred here there were no
winners and no losers. Students and administrators
each gave a little to avoid the bloodbath which the

issues which were raised during the movement have
not been completely resolved as yet, but the
groundwork has been laid. Confrontation has been,
and, must continue to be, transformed into
meaningful cooperation.

‘Note my name’
To the editor

Monday’s issue of The Spectruril contained a
letter critical of Student President Bill Austin. The
letter-writer wanted readers to conclude that he was
not “racist;” clearly he indicated that he was a
coward, however. Is it possible that “A Minority
Student” was a fragment of The Spectrum s
imagination?

*•

The prior issue of The Spectrum (Wednesday)
had an editorial critical of Bill Austin, also another
critical letter signed “A Student.” If, indeed, one is
to judge a man by his enemies, what can *e
conclude about Bill Austin whose critics appear
unwilling to sign their names?
Or is it that The Spectrum is playing 'games’
What is the policy on unsigned letters of attack upon
an individual? I recall that The Spectrum endorsed

The multitude of events which occurred since
September are too numerous to describe in detail.
I’ve skimmed the surface in an attempt at illustrating
the difficulties of the past year, but I realize that the
picture which I’ve presented is only sketchy at best.
I hope that my successors will have something a little
more pleasant to write about. In any case, as with all
things, the beat goes on.

His most creative moment came when he found
it necessary to comment on Miss Bucfanowski s
acting when she was “required to perform a bodily
function which purges from the system of excess gas
by using a posterior aperture.” He retold it
admirably, although by another name it would
certainly not smell as sweet.

occasion was this past weekend; the scene Chestnut Ridge

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

and Mr. Fleming before any
action is taken.”
Criminal action ‘unlikely’
Mr. Magavern and Dr. Regan both
affirmed that the intention of the
investigation was to pursue civil action to
recover
damages for the building
destruction. Both emphasized that ho
criminal action would be undertaken.
Indicating that civil action would be
initiated by the state attorney general, Mr.
Magavern said: “Ultimate responsibility for
the damages falls on the State University of
New York and on the State Construction
Fund. The contractor has let these agencies
know that he’s leaving action for
reimbursement up to them.”
Mr. Magavern considers the prospect of
the report being subpeonaed for criminal
action “unlikely.” He added, however, that
a criminal proceeding is “not within our
control. We don’t want to lull people into
thinking one won’t come and then have
them wake up and find a criminal
proceeding against them and think we
initiated it.”
Stressing the report's confidential
nature, Mr. Magavern announced his

The investigation into the March 19
of the Project THEMIS shacks
will be completed this week, according to
James L. Magavern, assistant to President
Martin Meyerson. The results will be
forwarded to Executive Vice President
Peter M. Regan for evaluation and any
subsequent action.
“Our findings are very near
completion,” Mr. Magavern said Friday.
"Before we turn it in, letters will be sent to
people identified as being present during
the destruction and they will be invited to
present evidence. The letters should be sent
out within the next day or sop.”
Mr. Magvern, in conjunction with
Robert B. Fleming, Faculty of Law and
Jurisprudence, have been conducting a
thorough investigation of the project

privilege jif investigation results are
subpoenaed. “As authors of the report,” he
explained: “we certainly cotjild claim the
privilege for ourselves and for the report. It
will be a confidential communication with
Dr. Regan.”
“Should anything be disclosed to the
attorney general for civil action, the
attorney general would be receiving it from
a client in confidence. In this case' the
information would also be subject to
attorney-client privilege. The situation is
no different than if a private law office
were hired,” Mr. Magavern said.
Dr. Regan did not rule out the
possibility of initiating disciplinary action
through the Student Judiciary and the
Committee on Student Behavior. However,

he claimed that he would discuss the report
with faculty and student leaders before
taking action.

Student participation
“It is premature to say what will be
done. It depends on the contents of the
report and the advice of responsible
student and faculty leaders,” he said.

Action by the above disciplinary bodies
would be subject to review by President
Meyerson. Mr. Magavern offered this as the
reason why Dr. Regan is handling the
report.
“There’s a problem on this campus in
that there js no enforcement, no attorney
general. Whoever is damlged institutes
action before the disciplinary bodies. To
preserve his independance of judgment
should this matter be appealed to him.
President Meyerson has designated Dr.
Regan to act upon the investigation
findings,” Mr. Magavern said.
When questioned about student
participation in the investigation, Mr.
Magavern replied: “This is something
which hasn’t been received yet. Students
are welcome to particpate if they want to.
However, we’re not sure any student wants
to assume this responsibility. He would
have to keep the knowledge confidential.
Knowledge imposes risks if criminal
proceedings are brought into court. There’s
also the political question of students
wanting to be a party to something
initiating action against other students,”
Mr. Magavern said.

�Morse: law-breaking students
must ‘face the consequences’
students should oppose the war
by doing “a-better political job.”

by Peter Simon
City Editor

Entitled to facts

Former Oregon Senator Wayne
L. Morse in a press conference last
Friday voiced strong opposition
to the United State’s “illegal,
completely
immoral and
unjustifiable’’ presence in
Vietnam. He also commented on
the “unsound” Safeguard missile
system proposal, law-breaking
student demonstrators and the
“rapid strides” the United States
is taking toward “executive

supremacy.”
The 68-year old former law
professor said that whenever
student demonstrators break the
law, the protest has “gone too
far.” He said that such students
should “face the consequences”
and not be granted amnesty.
By taking over buildings, Mr.
Morse said students are “spelling
out an ugly word anarchy.”
He feels that you “Cannot
separate the Vietnam war from
student unrest,” but urges that

Prague comes under control
of a ‘realist,’ Gustav Husak
by Guardian Weekly

Twice before in post-war
Communist history, satellite
nations of Eastern Europe have
come under the control of
“realists” whose job was to
appease both the imperial Power
in Moscow and the revolutionary
movement at home. In Hungary’s
case it was, for a long time, the
imperial Power which seemed to
be getting the better of the
bargain; Mr. Kadar betrayed his
comrade Mr. Nagy and put down
with totalitarian ruthlcssness all
remnants of the ideas which had
brought Hungary to the verge of
being a democracy. But that it
was in 1957, and Mr. Kadar has
given his people a degree of
freedom which, puny though it
must seem by Western European
standards, is greater than
Hungarians would have expected
from the early years of his rule.
He has retained the confidence of
the Kremlin, or so it seems, and
has begun to earn the confidence
of those he rules.
The Polish experience has been
almost the reverse. Mr. Gomulka’s
liberalism has shrivelled instead of
blossomed with the years, until
today Poland is as depressing and
conformist a state, in its way, as
Eastern Germany; more so indeed
because early hopes have not been
realized, whereas Eastern
Germany has never entertained
many hopes.

Husak involved
to try this
balancing act is Gustav Husak
from Bratislava, a man who knows
his Slovakia well but knows little

outside it, and whose task is the
difficult of the three.
Neither Hungary nor Poland had
experienced quite the release
which Czechoslovakia enjoyed last
year. Probably in neither country
was there Czechoslovakia’s
conviction that freedom had come
to stay. But the expectations of
the people are not the main
difficulty facing Dr. Husak. He
has, if possible, to win round the
Czechs and Slovaks to a policy of
conformity with Russian demands
without calling on Russian
intervention. He has to make his
actions took autonomous and
designed for the good of
Czechoslovakia, even when they
might be made at Russian
dictation. Neither Kadar nor
Gomulka had this handicap.
Kadar was generally regarded
(wrongly as it turned out) as
simply a Russian puppet; and in
Poland the liberals thought
Gomulka was on their side (and
most

they too were wrong).

Dr. Husak does not give the
impression of a man who minds
being tough with his opponents
and he is not committed to any of

May Day march
protests racism
A May Day march to protest
the alleged white racism of
construction unions attracted
approximately 300 students to

Niagara

Square. Traditionally
regarded as a worker’s holiday
throughout the world, in the
United States it was renamed Law
Day by President Eisenhower. As
the chanting students marched
away from the Square, May Day
acquired a dimension conforming
to its original intention.

Included

among

the

participating groups were Work
For All, Youth Against War and
Facism, Coalition Against White
Racism, Peace and Freedom Party
and Students for a Democratic
Society. Five costumed members
of the Guerilla Theater supplied
musk, playing kazoos and a small

drum.
“Unionism Yes,
Racism No,” “Black and White
Unite and Fight” and “Power to
the People,” the students drew
many puzzled looks and some
catcalls from passersby.

“No construction”
Dan Bentivogli, chairman of
CAWR, addressed the crowd:
“THEMIS isn’t going to be built.
The Amherst Campus isn’t going
to be built and no other
construction in this city will be
built unless the demands of the
black workers will be met.”

YAWF chairman Geny Gross
commented; “This is a precedent
a renewal of workers’ militancy.
This is just the beginning. Our
struggle is to oppose labor
bureaucrats who want to make
the unions lily white and racist.”
-

At 2:40 p.m. BUILD assumed
leadership of the march. William

Gatier, President of BUILD said:
“We

must have absolute
discipline. If you’re with us, we’re
happy to have you aboard, if not,
do your thing.” At this point,

YAWF broke away from the
march because BUILD would not
allow them to carry their banners.
From Niagara Square, they
marched to the new Erie County
Building which is being
constructed on Pearl and West
Eagle Sts. Work was stopped for
approximately 2S minutes while
Mr. Gatier and the construction
head spoke. Marshalls and FBI
agents were present to photograph

Theater review

‘Bits and Pieces
by Alfred Dragone
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

Nahum Tate, a former poet laureate of
England who considered it his duty during
the English restoration to rewrite
Shakespeare, once remarked that
Shakespear’s King Lear was like “a string
of unpolished gems.’’ Although my literary
credentials may be less impressive than
Tate’s— if you ever read his adaptations,
though you might even dispute that
I
must paraphrase Tate by saying that “Bits
and Pieces” also is like “a string of
unpolished gems,” held together very
tentatively by a rather slender common
idea.
The entire production was an amalgum
of various scenes and trifles which
apparently had no relation to each other
but were meant to acquaint the novice
theatergoer to theater-of-the-absurd.
Occasionallyr the sensation of being a
member of a 100-level theater class was
impressed upon me; but the production
worked well, very well indeed.
-

No way!

The piece was hampered by a rather
inauspicious start. The first scene, by
Jean-Claude Van Itallie, was a rather
amusing parody on Doris Day type “April
In Paris
An American in Paris”
technicolor fantasies of the early 1950’s
where a blonde type from America’s
heartland finds love in “Paree.” It
contained the ending we’d all like to see;
Doris gets stabbed right in her hotel!
“I’m Really Here” did suffer, however,
from some rather dreadful acting. Since

the entire scene was alledgedly being
filmed by a movie company, the offending
actors can cop-out and say that they were
overacting in the name of broad parody
and thus were once removed from the
audience. No way! Joy Buchnowski

be loosely termed her acting.
Her most inspired., moment came when
she was required to perform a bodily
function which purges the system of
excess gas by using a posterior aperture.
She performed that admirably, although
sound effects had to be employed to
enhance the sound. Her death scene, where
she belted out a chorus of “Everything’s
Coming Up Roses”
Ethel Merman she’s

would have been snickered at in a
high school production much less a piece
like this.
Obviously, Miss Buchnowski was
chosen for the part because she and Doris
Day share the same hair color. They also
have one emotion - between them.

Nigro’s quick steps

projected the major theme of the
production that was apparent to me, the
problem of communication. In a very few
minutes the life of a man from age 16 to
death was presented at a frightening verbal

pace.

Regimentation in life and the
impossibility of communication in that
kind of regimented life were here
explored. Seth Steiger’s line “That can’t be

What would a student Theater Guild

from Robert Nigro? He and Patricia Brown

dance based on Tennessee Williams’

choreographed by Miss Brown. Blending

‘Hair’

The adapatation of the Lone Ranger
script was by far the most lustrous piece.
James Santella’s Ezra, a prospector who
was about to be wronged until the Lone
Ranger swooped in, was a marvelous
combination of Gabby Hayes and Corner
Pyle. The actors were well directed by
Frank Elmer and all performed in an
excellently comic parody style.
The ending was fantastic. A chorus
assembled on stage as pictures of the
Ranger flashed on an overhead screen.
They sang to the pictures with a devotion
approaching religious fervor and then
removed their jackets. For a moment, I
thought, hoped even, that I was attending

a road production of “Hair.” As I secretly
shouted “more, more” the lights came up
and they were all attired in Lone Ranger
tee shirts. Popcorn was then passed out to

the audience. Look ma, it’s “theater of

participation!”

“I’m really loved”

John Mortimer’s “Conference” aptly
demonstrated again the problem of
communication in our society. Jonathan
Sperling’s brilliant portrayal of Willie
Lbman 1969
“I’m really loved” was
particularly inspired. At one point the
three participants in the scene, Mr.
Sperling, Joseph Noah and Linda Trybus
were caught up in a gaggle of telephone
cords; a very telling tableau to emphasize
the problems of communication. Finally,
in order to talk to the tycoon, Jones (Mr
Noah) finally had to leave the office and
call him on the phone.

were

uncomfortably minimal. The
immaturity of some members of

Josh White Jr.’s repertoire
consisted of a variety of folk

and

pop

songs.

Throughout his portion of the
concert, some of the half-wit
humorists were cracking little
jokes and cat-calling. He couldn’t
quite hear the hecklers, but their
annoying comments obviously

disturbed

his

performance

It appeared that he cut a few
songs out of his act in order to get
off faster. The numbers he did

White reminds one of many
other male singers

Time 1 Get to Phoenix,” he was
Richie Havens, in “For What It’s
Worth,” he was Jose Feliciano,
and in “I Heard You’re Getting
Married,” his style was
comparable to Lou Rawls.
He didn’t get down to his own
thing until “Tobacco Road,”
where he led the audience in a

narrative.

Stoned
Mond

and then decided not to waste
his time. So in his final song, he
stated: “1 Gotta Be Me,” and left
the stage with no encores.

Part Two of the evening’s
concert was a disappointment. Sly
and the Family Stone are a
striking group with good stage
presence, but musically they were

too loud.
Altogether the group had 25
amplifiers

on stage. Along with
this ample sound system. Sly had
a reverberator similar to the one
Wilmer and the Dukes use. The
Family Stone consists of a lead
guitar, bass guitar, electric piano,
drums, and an amplified trumpet
and sax.
Of all the Family Stone, the
most precious was their lady
trumpeter. With an expressionless
face through most of the concert,
her staid countenance stood out
amidst all the bopping and
excitement on stage.
She and the sax man worked
pretty well together. Building
together in a crescendo, they
would create that James Brown
big band sound. Then they’d stop,
tremolo rapidly on the same
tones, almost to the point of
teasing aggravation,. and end the
piece with a raucus avalanche of
sound.

The amplifiers were a bit too
much for her (and those in the
front I might add) because she
had to plug her ears to hear
herself play. The sound in the
gym was very bad and very
distorted. The two large amps for
the voice-mikes were placed in the
middle of the crowd, so you
couldn’t make out too many of
the words to their songs.
If you couldn’t hear the songs,
the only other attraction of the
act was the flashy threads the
Family sported. The two guitar
men were clad in bright pink and
green play suits with the bass
guitarist wearing a clear plastic
shirt.
Sly was a veritable sartorial
wonder. His rainbow-colored fur
knee boots covered tan leather
pants, a bright red fringed shirt
and a purple tam-o-shanter.
Along with looking pretty. Sly
played guitar, organ, and
harmonica. His guitar work was
unimpressive, his harmonica was
undecisive (he couldn’t find which
one to play in the dark) and his
organ was over wah-wahed.
The fragments of songs that
could be distinguished in the
melee are Everyday People, Dance
to the Music, People Are You
Ready, Sing A Simple Song, and
Turn Me Loose.
Some of the Stone’s
soul-stomping and dancing was
really good. It was very similar to
Smokey Robinson and the
Miracles or the Temptations, but
it still worked the crowd into an
excited pitch. The real gem of the
whole night came with the group’s
new song.
Sly got the fans all hepped up
by having them scream “higher”
and then raise their arms making
peace symbols. He said when
somebody makes a peace symbol
on stage, they should do it right.
My only regret is that I just

couldn’t hear the words of the
song which evoked the symbol. So
I couldn’t judge whether the
context was relevant or not.
As a rock group, Sly and the
Family Stone put down what
that is,
their fans want to hear
if their fans can really hear it.

�i Concert review

Kweskin, Lyman Family
by Steese
“Hey Steese, you want to do a review of
the Lyman Family? Yeh, I guess I could.”
It is so easy to get yourself into trouble, it
is amazing. Now I have.to sit here and try
to write my way out of it.' And it is not
going to be easy, as anyone who was at last

Tuesday’s concert in the Millard Fillmore
Room might be able to vouch.
There is a question confronting anyone
who tries to review this group, especially
when one is supposed to be doing basically
a musical review. Does one, can one,
separate Jim Kweskin and the Lyman
Family from the philosophy which is
inherent in both their lives and their music
or does one try to speak only to the music
itself? For me it is impossible to do the
latter. The thrust of the group is to create a
mood, a setting in which they can be
happy and make other people happy AND
aware of why they are happy.
It is impossible to ignore the fact that
all these people are connected with an
essentially religious commune, the Fort
Hill Community in Roxbury, Boston,
Mass., said community built around a man
named Mel Lyman. (Check the American
Avatar in the Browsing Library for an
article about the community by Lyman if
you are curious enough to pursue it.) These
community members believe that this man
is a major religious figure, and like the
early Christ-ians they are not reticent
about it.
The musical portion of the multi-media
program suffered from a number of
problems. A new piano player, one
unfamiliar with the playing habits of the
others, had been added, and throughout
the first five or six songs technical
difficulties
nobody on stage could hear
anybody else
were being resolved.
People, or more accurately, audience
problems were also apparent. The audience
was restless and edgy. It was apparent that
a great many people came expecting the
happy time sound of the old Kweskin Jug
Band, and were not at all pleased to find
him trying to create a very quiet and gentle
atmosphere of low key gospel, semi-gospel,
and assorted other low key things.

Nam and Ly flick
"The film which followed the musical
section was frightening for its first half, a
series of footage shot from TV screens
dealing mostly with Vietnam, and the
domestic
that grisly conflict.
Crude in its editing, it sfUl made a powerful
impact. The second half was harder to take
if you were not really into who Mel Lyman
is and how the people involved in
producing the film are connected with him.
It was a series of shots of Mel Lyman,
which if you could get outside of, and
concentrate on the procedures used was
also a fascinating segment. For many
however, it may well have been too much
of a forced dose of propaganda - which is
the problem with dealing with believers.
(How much of this could be due to
jealousy for those who have something to
believe in might also make an interesting

question.)

Mixed bag
The closing segment was a series of very,
very powerful and beautiful slides taken in
and around the Fort Hill Community.

and some of the times inbetween, mostly

have been left with at least part of the
powerful feeling that these people brought
into the Fillmore Room with them. Like
them or no, they were honest and they
were sensitive, which are not that frequent
these days, and they are talented. If you
get a chance to see them, and are willing to
be entertained in a gentle restrained and
warm manner, I would reccommend them
but then 1 never really figured out how
good my judgment was.

concert.

Low-key family
To me Eweskin’s two or three requests
from the stage that those who didn’t like
what he was doing get out were indicative
of the whole problem surrounding this
group. They aren’t entertainers, they are a
family that was trying to invite other
people in for at least a little while. Not
unexpectedly, a great many people were
confused and angered by such an attitude.
“Unprofessional” as it may have been to
those who are desirous of having
professionalism, it indicated where
Kweskin is. He is a sensitive man and a fine
artist who wanted to have a good time, and
wanted other people to have a good time,
and was onjy too well aware of the
ominous crO#-currents and dissatisfaction
in the room. V
Once thejr could hear each other, say
from the oq|feinuance of “Pack Up Youi
Sorrows” on (he broke it to ask people to
leave if thgy didn’t like what was
happening), the three men and the woman
on stage made some very pleasant and
relaxing music, Marilyn, the female vocal,
appears to have upset numerous people
since she didn’t come on like Janis Joplin.
She was always there, and she and Kweskin
—achieved some very nice vocal effects, for
those, like myself, who don’t mind being
underwhelmed. The second to last number,
“Deep Sea,” was her own composition and
she made her strongest appearance on it.
The gentleman on harmonica/second guitar
did a fine job, especially on the former.
The piano player was good, though one
had the impression he was holding back
because of unfamiliarity. And Kweskin is
beautiful, he is one of those people who
likes to like what he is doing, and when
tilings are going right and his head is
bobbing around, some fine music is made.

Q: It is difficult to get a book returned which is charged out to a
faculty member, re all requests for the recall of a book given equal
treatment? Are faculty members assessed the same penalties as

students?

A: Mr. William B. Ernst, Assistant Director of University Libraries,
library staff gives all requests for the recall of books or
other library materials equal treatment. All books requested, whether
charged to a student or a faculty member, are recalled immediately.
One week is allowed for the return. Students generally return books
promptly because of the penalty involved.
We do not assess the same penalties for faculty as we do for
students and, consequently, for this and other reasons, many faculty
ignore recall notices and keep books either until they have finished
with them or until the end of the semester.
The library’s principal conern is not with the assessment of
penalties, but with the return of books needed by library users. We
would welcome any suggestions which might assist us in getting books
which have been requested into the hands of the person desiring them.
Our circulation policies, including fines and the problems of books
which are not returned when requested or when due, are currently
under study by a committee within the library. When the library stafr
has completed its study the results will be presented to the various
Faculty Advisory Committees of the library for their advice and
suggestions. There are five such committees at present:

Buffalo proved that fairy tales
do come true as Paul DiRosa won
the first game of a double-header
against Niagara in exactly that
fathion with a solo blast in the
bottom of the ninth as the Bulls
beat Niagara 4-3.

Daring double steal
Buffalo opened the scoring
when Don Jok walked and stole
second. Jok went to third as
Constantino reached first on an
error. With two outs and runners
on first and third, Coach
Monkarsh called for the most
a
daring bit of baseball strategy
double steal. While Constantino
drew the throw at second, Jok
crossed the plate with the first

runs in the fourth inning as a
result of some miscues in

Buffalo’s outfield.

The Blue and White came back
in the sixth to tie it up. Don Jok
led off by blooping a double into
left field, then advanced to third
on a wild pitch. Bob Stiscak drew
a walk and was replaced on the
bases by Meterko. Tom Finger
singled over second base, driving
Jok in from third and an error
allowed Meterko to score.
Then in the bottom of the
seventh, with the score notched at
3-3, DiRosa's moment for heroics
arrived. He pulled one down the
left field line, thus ending the
game and giving Buffalo a victory.

Bulls lose nightcap
The spectators didn’t have
much to cheer about at the onset
of the nightcap, as the Bulls did a
complete about-face.

In the first inning Stan Jok
couldn’t find the plate. He walked
six batters and threw two wild
pitches with the bases loaded.
Third baseman DiRosa had a
crucial throwing error in that
frame which allowed two runners
to score.

The Eagles added two in the
second and one more in the third
inning, gaining an 8-0 lead.
Buffalo battled back, scoring
five runs in the sixth and two in
the eighth. The highlight of the
sixth was Doug DeMarco’s
bases-loaded homer.

Niagara squelched any ideas of

A Question ol Damages

Discipline most important

‘Mr. Andrews: . .We want to know more about the Themis program
than just the name of the University, the title of the study effort;and
the cost of the study.
Admiral Owen: All right, sir. We can take a contract
Mr. Andrews: One that the Navy is especially interested in.
Admiral Owen: I will mention a project that the State University of
New York at Buffalo is doing entitled 'Environmental physiology.
This will involve a study related to our discussion of yesterday in
which we talked about the need for increased knowledge about the
performance of man in the sea to meet Navy needs. In particular, the
university hopes to, or is conducting studies on the conditions in free
swimming, sealed environments, a relatedprogram of study of
environmental atmospheres under the water . . . ‘The objective of this
Themis project is to increase our knowledge and understanding of the
physiological responses of man to unusually stressful environments
that may be encountered during the performance of man’s national
defense-related duties. ’
-from the hearings of the House
Committee on Appropriations
90th Congress

To the editor:

’

"

This week in the mail, various persons identified as being
present during the March 19 destruction of the Themis
construction site will receive letters inviting them to
“present evidence” to the investigators, Law School
professors, James L. Magavern and Robert B. Fleming.
These interviews will signal the end of the preliminary
investigation and the Magavern-Fleming report will then go
to executive vice president, Peter M. Regan. Though all three
have stated that no criminal action against those identified as
participants would be undertaken, theyhave once again made
clear that the purpose of the investigation is to initiate civil
action against those involved. And the purpose of the civil
action is not to punish per se, but to recover the damages.
The only damages referred to in this case are an
estimated $2000 worth of destroyed construction shacks.
This is unfortunate. Any responsible investigation into the
Themis issue cannot ignore another set of damages the ones
entailed in the implementation of a Defense Department
project which admittedly “opens the whole Continental
(and) “man’s national
Shelf’ to “Navy needs .
defense-related duties.
And there are other damages as well
the countless
academic departments told to make due with inadequate
space and ‘wait for Amherst’ while a Defense Department
complex has the magical formula needed for administrative
OK to build; the mounting security guard at the site which
responds with walkie-talkies and cameras if a curious
observer chances to linger; an investigating committee which
does not contain even a token student; the increasing
encroachment of community pressure into the affairs of the
University, and lastly, the whole nature of the investigation
and identification of those involved. Obviously the only
participants who can possibly be identified by photos or
observers are those students whose previous activities have
brought them to official attention. An unknown student is
just as “guilty” but safe behind his anonymity.
To single out only a few so-called leaders is not justice. It
is a shoddy attempt to appease a community which can only
see the act and not the issues. And the refusal to understand
the underlying reasons for the Themis destruction is the real
damage in this case.

The Spectrum

(

‘Purling is such swift sorrow’

Refractions
by Rick Schwab
Any of you who think the Polity system of
governance is becoming ridiculous (not to mention
the Faculty Senate) should drop in on the State
Legislature the next time you’re in Albany. Tis
indeed the students who have more sanity, not to
mention better manners.
The floor of the Assembly is constantly a scene
of disorder bordering on chaos. While debate drones
on, the din of lawmakers and lobbyists disallows
hearing and comprehension. No one listens as the
gavel raps away. Speaker Duryea recently warned the
legislators of the mockery they were making.,
Bigotry is no stranger in the Assembly chamber
either. It was Tuesday when I approached the
Assembly sergeant-at-arms to ask the whereabouts of
Buffalo Assemblyman Arthur O. Eve. “He’s that
colored boy over there,” the guard sneered. I did hot
wish to provoke an incident on the Assembly floor.
But while the Polity is surely more orderly than
our legislature recent legislation has been just as
ridiculous in both bodies.
The Legislature, for example has passed a bill
barring the teaching of sex education in public
schools. Which is just beautiful because now sex can
be taught where it ought properly tb be taught on
the street corner. (In my case it was a tree house
because we didn’t have street corners.) Of course we
all know the arguments for putting sex on the street
corners instead of in the classrooms:
“We don’t want our children thinking about sex
all the time when their supposed to be thinking
about shop class ..
“Our children will grow up with filthy minds
-

»»

“There’ll be rape in the corridors unless we pass
this bill . .
“Let the kids leam by themselves
Thus the legislators moved in tradition with the
great Christian ethic. Sex is dirty. And if that is so
we should be thankful for the recent Supreme Court
ruling, which, as the Courier-Express headlined
“OK’s Reading of Filth in Home.”
Legislation which is just as ridiculous has been
passed in Polity lately. Like barring Faculty from
speaking and sensuring newspaper editors and deans.
Real progressive thinking, you think? Actually it’s
the same kind of thing the Legislature has been

I read with interest your story on high school
rebellion. I made special note of the last sentence.
Rebellion in the elementary schools just may be
next. It certainly ought to be. By the time I’d
completed the observation and student teaching
phases of my teacher-preparation, I knew something
was wrong. I’ve been teaching in a K-8 school f or
three months now and I’m beginning to understand
just what it is. I felt a need to go forth and challenge
the system. 1 started out with what 1 thought was an
optimistic “it can’t be all wrong” attitude. 1 was
naive, unprepared.
When I tell other teachers that discipline seems
to be the main concern in the schools, they smile
maternally and say: “That’s what teaching is all
about, honey.” At least they know me now. My first
week, I was snapped at on several occasions for
“being in the hall without permission.” In our
schools you must be a teacher to be treated like a
human being.
My initial interview with the principal was a
lesson in the significance of blue, white and pink
slips. The blues are for discipline complaints. Three
blues equal suspension. Three whites equal one blue.
The pinks are evaluation-of-conduct sheets on the
suspended student. The young criminals are rated on
such characteristics as “neatness of appearance,
trustworthiness, and ability to conform.”
Shall I be thankful for those kids who stand up
and rebel against arbitrary authority or lament the
waste, the misdirection of their beautiful, bountiful
energies?

‘Calamity AT thumped
To the editor.

In the first paragraph of last Monday’s review of
“The Time of Your Life,” crtic Alfred Dragone leads
one to believe that the Conference Theater audience
was fighting itself to keep from unleashing its wrath
on the players. This is a great deception. We found
the performance to be more than delightful and
inspiring. It is a great calamity for a reporter to
misinterpret the sentiments of the opening night
viewers, as Mr. Dragone has done.
Mr. Dragone gives some credit, though not
nearly enough, to Michael Black and Robert Nigro,
but finds fault with the performances of all others in
the play, even omitting the names of some of the
other stars. One such outrageous omission is the
absence of any reference to the brilliant performance
turned in by Scott Kreiger, the irrepressible
newsboy. Scott was the complete master of his
moments on stage, even treating the audience to a
short, but sweet serenade that nearly brought
everyone to tears.
It is imperative that performances like Scott’s
and the others’ get the credit they deserve, and are
nor marred by one unrepresentative review.

And there’s another problem in the Polity
nobody knows the Constitution or the Polity Rules
adopted by that body last fall. State Legislators
might be excused for not knowing the State
Constitution
a long and tedious document. But
the Polity operates on two and a half pages of
double-spaced rules and 11 pages of Constitution.
And that’s not even counting the subheads.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

myself.”

A member of the Student Publications Board,
Margaret Buck, asserted that the Polity had no fight
to punish any publication under the jurisdiction of

the Publications Board. A letter from the
Publications Board to Mr. Austin disclaiming the
Polity’s prerogative to question the editorials of
Publications Board publications was also read to the
assemblage. However, Mr. Austin refused to
comment on or recognize the letter and questioned
Miss Buck as to the Board’s regulation of
publications.

Communications center suggested

Mr. Austin also commented on a motion, later
defeated, to turn over 511 acres of land owned by
the University Faculty-Student Association to the
minority peoples of Buffalo: “I’m not in favor of
turning over this land to anyone. The school budget
was cut by $2.5 million. Norton Hall, which had a
normal budget of $65,000 a year, now has $25,000 a
year.

‘We might not have anything to give away
The minority groups would still have to pay the
taxes
I suggest that the land be set up for a
communications center, or a training center, or a
50-50 University-Community Housing complex or
we could build our own student University.”
A motion to condemn Richard Siggelkow, vice
president for student affairs, for “lying” on a local
television show was tabled until the next Polity
meeting, in order that a tape of the program could
be shown.
Late in the meeting, Mr. Austin interrupted to
suspend the Polity’s use of Robert’s Rules of Order.
The Polity Rules specifically stipulate that these
procedural rules shall be followed by the Polity.
Although Student Polity Rules state: “The
president shall preside over all meetings of the
Polity,” First Vice President George Heymann
chaired much of the meeting.
Mr. Austin, however, frequently addressed the
Polity without obtaining recognition from the chair.

Mr. Scott retorted: “That is nonsense, utter
nonsense. Because a student goes through school in a
ghetto area, and because he takes IQ tests geared to a
white middle-class society and does -poorly, that
doesn’t mean that he has no ability
it means that

News Editor
Unanimous approval of a resolution to bar faculty
admittance to Polity meetings was one of several
actions taken on controversial issues by the Polity at
a meeting Monday conducted in an inquisitive
atmosphere where even the identity of the chair was
an uncertainty.

Condemnation of the supervising editor of Ethos
and a demand that the “University break its relations
with the ROTC program on campus” were also
approved after heated debates which were frequently
interrupted by Student Association President Bill
Austin who ignored Polity procedural rules.
Commenting on the measure to deny privileges to
faculty members until such time as speaking
privileges are granted to students at Faculty Senate
meetings, Mr. Austin said; “I’m tired of us reacting
to the Faculty Senate. Let them react to us for
once.”
The resolution regarding ROTC on the State
University of Buffalo campus was proposed by
Speed Powrie, undergraduate member of Students
for a Democratic Society, who later stated that
stripping the ROTC program of academic credit is
“not enough.”
ROTC condemned
“I don’t care about the processes.” Mr. Powrie
continued. “When ROTC stops what they’re doing,
then it will be enough.”
Supporting the resolution. Bruce Beyer of the
Buffalo Draft Resistance Union described it as an
attempt to stop the Air Force from obtaining “35%
of their officers from the collegiate ROTC
programs.”
Mr. Beyer stressed the importance of ROTC in
the military program quoting the ROTC
commandant at Harvard: “The military cannot exist
without getting trained officers from the colleges.”
Ethos editor censured
David Scott moved to “condemn" the supervising
editor of Ethos, Paula Brookmire. for what he
termed her "blatantly racist editorial of April 15
which denies the right of minorities to an
education.”
This resolution *as passed by a large majority.
Denying the assertion by Mr. Scott that everyone
has a right to an education, the editor of the former
Commuter Council news letter said: “You only have
a right to your own life. I only objected to the quota

It cited indications that the

by Russian proposals for making
up U.N. forces from middle and
smaller powers, and for including
such nations in the U.N.’s military
staff committee which advises the
Security Council on military
requirements for maintenance of
international peace and security.
In the course of its reports,
U.N.A. notes that there is clearly
at present no reliable multilateral
approach to the control of
international conflicts.
While the U.N.A. report does

not pretend to provide solutions
to the current Vietnam or Middle
East conflicts, it notes that the
former has forced a searching
re-examination of US. security
strategy.

The U.N.A. report notes that
because of Vietnam especially
"there is some indication that the
pendulum of concern and appeal
within the United States, and
within
the
international
community, is swinging back
toward efforts to develop the
collective peace-keeping capacity
of the United Nations and of
regional organizations. This
at a time when multilateral
agencies are weak and divided."

�Endless Summer, A Man and A Woman

Efforts to curb sex

UUAB presents

education thwarted
Sex education courses in the
public school systems of Buffalo
and other New York State
localities are apparently here to

stay.

Legislative efforts to curtail
such programs have failed at both
the state and local levels.
The State Assembly has
defeated a Senate bill that would
have amended the emergency
health law to eliminate language
that h%s led to sex education
courses.

A bill to strike out the words
“family living” and other language
from the list of subjects on which

courses should be offered received

70 of 76 votes needed for passage.
There were 59 negative votes.
Nine Democrats voted for the
bill and ten Republicans against it.
There were 29 Assemblymen
absent when the vote was taken
about 15 minutes before the
house adjourned Saturday night.
Two Assemblymen did not
vote.
Stanley Steingut, Democratic

minority leader, said he “had not
heard from one person in the state
who reported any adverse effects

from this law.”
Buffalo's “human growth and
development” program has
survived efforts by councilmen to
end the program and to set up a
board which would have the
power to censor the curriculum.
A brief flurry of opposition to
the program seems to have
subsided following the showing of
the films used in the program on
television.
The Board of Education has,
however, adopted three
modifications to the program.
The content, which has been
spread out from grades 4 through
6, will now be concentrated
largely on grade 6. In another
change, separate classes will be
held for boys and girls.
Also, parents will be provided
with the opportunity to review
the program and have their
children excused from it upon
request.

White-fringed surf breaks
across on Australian coastline as
two tiny figures are silhouetted
against this wall of water.
The surfer’s quest follow the
sun in search of the perfect wave.
Depicted in 97 minutes of
breathtaking color, Bruce Brown’s

film “The Endless Summer” tries
to capture the thrills and
excitement of their search.
Using two California surfers'
and an itinerary that starts on the
West Coast, Mr. Brown safaris
around the world capturing tons
of surf on film. His venture takes
him to such exotic surfing spots as
Senegal, Ghana, Nigeria, South

Africa, Australia, New Zealand,
Tahiti, Hawaii, and back to
California.

Together with his associates,
Robert August and Mike Hynson,
Brown covered more than 35,000
miles and spent three months in
actual filming. He then put in
another two years editing his
50,000 feet of color film and
produced what Time Magazine
calls “A dazzling ode to sun, sand,
and surf.”

“Endless Summer” will be
shown continuously at the
Conference Theater tomorrow
and Saturday as part of the Spring
Weekend program.
On the alternate days of Friday
and Sunday, the University Union
Activities Board Film Committee
will offer another award-winning
film A Man and a Woman.
Claude Lelouch, a 28-year-old

films
Frenchman, wrote, directed
photographed and produced this

grand prize winner of the Cannes
Film FEstival. Along with the
Cannes award, his film won two
Academy Awards for "Best
Foreign Picture” and "Best
Original Screenplay.”

The musical theme of the
movie was written by Pierre
Barouh, who also appears in the
film. After filming “A Man and a
Woman,” Mr. Barouh married his
co-star Anouk Aimee in real life
Miss Aimee won a Golden Globe
Award for "Best Actress.”
The film will be presented with
subtitles, but the music and
photography transcend a language
barrier to tell the romantic story
of* a man and a woman falling in
love.

doubleheader with Duquesne.
The Bulls’ silent bats suddenly
came alive Friday afternoon,
surprising a strong University of
Pittsburgh team. In a wild contest,
marred by sloppy fielding on both
sides, Buffalo finally emerged a
15-12 victor.
The Panthers, who had upset
tionally-ranked UCLA earlier in
season, gave the Buffalo fans a
ire in the last of the ninth when
ey scored five runs. Fireman
came in and
mi Rectenwald
enched the rally to preserve the

two.

The next day was a different
story, however, as Buffalo
dropped a 1-0 heartbreaker to
Duquesne, but stormed back in
the second half of the
doubleheader to take an 8-3
verdict over the Dukes.

�Calm restored at Cornell

Revolt displays
new techniques
As
ITHACA, N Y. (CPS)
days of confrontation came to an
end at Cornell University, black

students there could boast of
several “firsts” in the campus
revolt.
They had escalated
the
intensity of student protest
several notches by their carrying
of guns as they took over a
building.
And (not
unconnectedly) they had won a
clear victory.
The victory was that pressure
from 250 black students, with
some support from a number of
Cornell's ,14,000 other students,
forced the faculty to rescind
disciplinary reprimands its
judiciary had given five black
students for their part in a
January protest.
As President James Perkins
gushed optimism about the
University’s future, larger
questions about the University’s
treatment of black students
questions that have been dividing
the campus since last fall
remained
At that time Cornell gave
official support and approval to
an
Afro-American Studies
Department and student center.
As plans for the center began to
be implemented, black Students
decided whites should not be
involved in policy-making for it.
That led eventually; to last week’s
reprimands, and to resentment
from some whites of the “undue
amount of attention” the black
students were getting.
After the reprimands against
the black students were
announced, about 75 blacks
invaded and took over Willard
Straight Hall, the campus student
center. They armed themselves
with rifles, shotguns and
bandoliers of ammunition, after a
charge from white fraternity
members.
Dean of the faculty Robert
Miller made an informal
agreement with the leaders of the

Afro-American Society, He told
them the faculty would rescind it s
judicial committee’s reprimands
or else he would resign his post.
The students left Straight Han
peacefully. The next morning the
faculty chose to uphold the
reprimands. Miller, true to his
,
promise, resigned.
A faculty council appointed to
advise the full body of professors

then

recommended

the

faculty

reverse itself, and Wednesday the

faculty did resolve to nullify
judicial proceedings dgainsl the

five blacks.
In an almost pathetic plea, the
resolution added to the students:
“We hear you, we care, we are
trying to understand you; and we
want together with you to do
something.”
Although their action

ended
the immediate threat of violence
at
Cornell, many of the
University’s racial problems
remain unsolved. And Cornell’s
black studies problems are typical
of those which may soon be faced
by other schools.
Several years ago the school

decided to concentrate on
admitting and keeping more black
students, and agreed (under some
student pressure! to set up a
special program in black studies.
But black students feel like guinea
pigs instead of students at Cornell;
they want more control over
black studies; they feel the
school’s treatment of them is
racist. And groups of while
students feel the University is
going out of its way to cater to its
handful of blacks.
The tensions created during
five days of Cornell’s showdown,
and built up for months before,
have only been slightly eased by
the faculty action of Wednesday.
And the guns, no doubt (despite
bills introduced in the State
Senate by panicked legislators last
week) will be put out of sight, hut
not so soon out of mind.

Polity ‘transcends belief’

Censure the censors
Ha, singlehandedly violated nearly every procedural
Polity Rule, including: conducting a meeting with no
Student Association Secretariat or SA Parliamentarian
present, discarding Robert’s Rules of Order, speaking
repeatedly out of order, and making rulings and
interpretations while not acting as chairman.
He has repeatedly threatened various forms of censoring,
personal, political reprisals against student publications,
threatening arbitrary budget cuts and Student Association
direction of editorial policy
both examples of a clear-cut
disregard for the Student Association Constitution and the
Publications Board Charter.
He rejected the Publications Board’s letter urging
reiteration of student publications’ right to editorial
autonomy, and of the Board’s guaranteed right to autonomy
from the Polity.
Students concerned about such tyrannical manipulation
of student politics must repudiate these actions of the
Student Association President Bill Austin.
Perhaps the Coordinating Council ought to call a special
meeting, and read the entire Publications Board Charter, the
Student Association Constitution and By-Laws and the
Rules of the Polity to Mr. Austin.

To the editor.
The events which we witnessed at today’s Polity
Meeting (No. 32, in a continuing series . . .) almost
transcend belief. Maybe it’s not the fault of the
student: maybe it’s the wrong form of government
In the old Student Senate, anyone could come to a
meeting and speak; non-members rarely did. But
now that we have increased our academic frfeedotn
by giving the right to legislate to the student body
we find that ‘they’ have abused this right by the.

introduction of absurd restrictions.

Work For All
Sometimes we forget we aren’t the only center of the
State University here in Buffalo.
The concerted efforts of local community groups and
students have helped remind all of us that, while we might
be waiting for Amherst to begin, construction by a rigidly
tight-white labor force at the Elmwood St. campus of the
State University College has continued at a steady pace since
the lifting of the sham moratorium.
Thursday all groups plan to reemphasize to state and
local officials the urgency of minority group requests for
equal opportunity in State University construction
employment. Students, faculty and workers from this
University community should actively support the
demonstrations downtown and at State College.
‘Work For All” is their cause now, as well as ours.

‘You are being asked

.

.

.

President Kenneth Pitzer of Stanford University told his
Board of Trustees recently;
You face a set of decisions which are really symbolic of a major
national and international crisis. The crisis is a lack of confidence of
many students in the controlling elements of our society. You are
being held responsible for the war in Vietnam, for the draft, for our
failure to find a way to stop the nuclear arms race, for the oil leak in
the Santa Barbara channel. You are being asked through your decision
on research to say that our national priorities are wrong
that we
spend too much on the military, on means of killing people, and not
enough on constructive things, on helping ordinary people to live.
Will the Faculty of this University recognize their
responsibilities, not merely as ‘scholars’
but as human
beings?

by Randall T. Eng
The Safeguard Antiballistic Missile system has
been thoroughly analyzed, debated, vilified and
praised. I have formed no concrete opinions on the
matter as yet but I have resolved to procure my own
ABM site if the measure is passed. It’s not fair to
reserve these splendid weapons for Minuteman
missile silos and SAC bases. After all, there are
millions of us who are just paranoid enough to care.
Secretary Laird and Representative Rivers have
spent considerable time and energy warning us of
those sinister Soviet SS-9’s and multiple-warhead
devices. They tell us of the imminent threat of
Communist first-strike salvos and the like. I’m not
terribly impressed by these arguments but I am
concerned over other possibilities. What if the
Martians should decide upon a “final solution” for
the Earth? The consequences are too dire for me to

I find it hard to believe that our very own SA
President can agree with an obviously vocal
minority: that barring faculty from speaking to the
Polity can in any way promote the “general welfare
and interest” of the Student Association. If that
quote sounds familiar, it is from our very own SA
Constitution, and was used as the basic argument for
a stipend increase by our loyal Coordinating Council
(AH, 1 see, they’re coordinating their own welfare!)
About the other major issue, the Ethos editorial,
I would only like to reaffirm my belief that nu
student organization should have the ability to
impose editorial sanction on any student
publication.

The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

TheFaculty Senate Thursday attempted to come
to grips with the compelling issue of Department of
Defense sponsored research on the State University of
Buffalo campus—and passed a resolution described by
both its opponents and its supporters as affirming the
status quo.
.

According to the amended resolution, “the association
of a faculty member with a research program must be by his
own choice.” The only restriction placed upon research is
that results must be “publishable.”
Approximately 400 members of the 1200-member
senate were present at the meeting, which was a
continuation of a March 26 session at Kleinhans Music Hall.
The resolution, presented by Howard E. Strauss, Faculty of
Engineering and Applied Science, reads:
“The association of a faculty member with a research program
must be by his own choice.
“All sponsored research undertaken shall contribute to the
University’s goals of the creation and dissemination of knowledge.
“All personnel associated with the research program should be
selected on the basis of academic qualifications.
“All research results (including sponsorship) shall be publishable

as determined by the faculty members involved, in the open literature
for the use of the public.
“Be it further resolved that the Faculty Senate of State University
of Buffalo reaffirms its Commitment to current research contracts and
to further research support which fulfills the foregoing principles.
“And be it further resolved that the Faculty Senate instructs the
Secretary of the Senate to transmit this resolution concurrently with
and to the same addresses as Resolution No. 1 of this meeting.”
Resolution I called for University President Martin Meyerson to
pursue “his announced goal of achieving the transfer of Defense
Department sponsored University research to a variety of alternative
public agency sponsors.”

'

The accepted amendments were proposed by William Baumer,
Faculty of Social Science and Administrations. All other attempts to
amend the resolution failed.
An amendment offered by David Hayes, Faculty of Social Science
and Administration, would have added a preamble stating the general
objectives of a University. The resolution read, in part:
“Other institutions dedicated to nationalistic and commercial ends
conduct research and give practical training. Other institutions
dedicated to moral and spiritual doctrine criticize the social order and
propogandize the young. Because other institutions have special
purposes, their investigations, their critiques and their training are
limited. The university alone sees the natural order as neither good nor
evil, neither profitable nor profitless, but simply as an object of

understanding.

“The university therefore stands alone as the ultimate neutral
critic, the essential source of knowledge that becomes useful only long
after its discovery. Students who participate in the life of the
university become educated persons.’’.

member.”
A motion to table the amendment was

passed which, in effect

’My proposal in offering the amendment was to outline the
purpose of the University. The University is too important to burn it
as ammunition in a political fight,” Dr. Hayes later commented.
“If a University professor uses his position as a comfortable
position for research and neglects the student, this is reprehensible
hom a University standpoint. I won’t attempt to interpret why the
Faculty Senate reacted to the amendment as it did,’ he said.
Leo Loubere, Faculty of Social Science and Administration,
moved to refer the Strauss resolution to a committee for further study.
1 am confused,” he said, “by the original resolution. I have been told

ssue deserves further clarification.”

Defending his resolution Dr. Hayes said: “1 hope the majority here
will participate to make this University an educational institution. We
must be careful to pursue research for our ends and not theirs.
However, the morality of the situation is up to the individual faculty

Gabriel Kolko, whose resolution to transfer Defense Department research to alternate sponsors was
earlier session, labeled the Strauss proposal a “model of vagueness.”
“The Pennsylvania proposal, which I worked on, is seven pages long. This is specifically a non-policy
and is not a distinction to our university if passed,” he said.
t
Marvin Zimmerman, Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration, replied that he was “touched by
Dr. Kolko’s concern about hasty action, especially in view of the last Faculty Senate meeting."
“This resolution should be considered. We gave Dr. Kolko’s resolution a chance to be voted up or
down. This ptoposal is a month old. That’s adequate time for study,” Dr. Zimmerman said.
“There should be an analysis of the issues and facts," said lerome Slater, Faculty of Social Science and
Administration. “The philosophical and political issues should be considered also."
“Conflicting values such as academic freedom on one side and reducing the military's role in American
society on the other are present. We need some dispassionate analysis to represent the balance of these

conflicting values,” he continued.
“I wonder,” asked John Larken, Faculty of Social Science and Administration, "if the Faculty Senate
wants to take responsibility for reaffirming current research when we don't know what all of that researc •h is'’

�Lawmakers deal harshly

Rebellion

Special to The Spectrum

So does the problem of campus
rebellion, as the legislators well

The 1969 State Legislature,
with adjournment in sight, has
dealt harshly with narcotics
pushers and campus rebels and has
been anything but kind to youth
in the 18 to 21 age bracket.
Gov. Rockefeller will soon pass
judgement on a bill which would
put narcotics sellers in the same
category as murderers and
kidnappers as the only criminals
who could receive a life sentence.
Under the present law, sale of
narcotics carries a maximum
sentence of 25 years and
possession a 15-year term.
The new measure, passed last
week in the Senate, deals with the
so-called “hard drugs” - heroin,
morphine and cocaine.
Penalties for possession or sale
of less than a pound of hard drugs
would not be changed under the
proposal.

Gov. Rockefeller has signed
into law a bill requiring all
colleges and universities in the
state to adopt rules and

uprisings.

of each college would govern the

Ground rules
Several ground rules were
established. Rifles held blank
ammunition and smoke bombs
were used to simulate grenades.
No physical contact was to be
allowed between Marines and
students. If anyone was “killed”
or taken prisoner, they would be
allowed to return to the action
after two hours.
The Marines supplied the food,
weapons and
shelter. They
themselves had M14 rifles. The
guerrillas received rifles, and the
village was equipped with the
remaining few.
Originally, over 50 students
were expected, but a Friday night
snow reduced the numbers
and
added to the discomfort of
everyone involved. The Marines
decided to build only one shelter
in which they eventually confined
the whole village, and they made
the perimeter of the village

wearied of the game and confined
the village to the hut. About 1
a.m., alerted by a false radio
message from the guerrillas
concerning a village break-out,
they attacked the hut and threw
smoke bombs at the village.
The only other incident
occurred a few hours later, when a
few Marines, acting without
directions, came into the hut and
pushed students around.
The most successful aspect, the
villagers agreed later, was the talks
that got started between students
and Marines.

“1 got a lot out of rapping with
them,” one girl said. "Many were
young and just trying to escape
the draft. They agreed with us
about the war, and they took our
literature.” The students had
brought anti-war pamphlets along.
A big problem, the students
thought, was the unpreparedness
of both sides, and as night
progressed, the scenerio was

terrain, and stashed their weapons
and ammunition.
Then, as one member wryly
put it, "for two hours we snooped
and peeped through the woods
looking for the force.”
When the Marines were finally
ambushed by the squads in a joint
attack, however, they refused to
play the game. "In the true spirit
of the Marine corps,” a guerrilla
explained, “they refused to die."
Although shot at ten feet, they
proceeded to chase the guerrillas.
Once, the guerrillas got hold of a
local man’s truck and drove up to
the perimeter, jumped out and
attacked, to be shot at by the
immortal Marines.
Two or three guerrillas were
taken prisoner.
Another tactic of the guerrillas
was the monitoring of the
Marines’ radio frequency. They
sent in a phony report on the
position of the Viet Cong to base,
which ordered the patrols to fire,
then sat in a circle listening to the
Marines fire aimlessly into the
dark.
The guerrillas felt that they
had done fairly well, a judgement
substantiated by the Marines and
by Dr. Larrabee. What they got
out of it
besides hurt feet
was, as several said, an education
in and an insight into guerrilla
warfare.

Stipend increase denied
The decision to increase
Student Association stipends by
$250 was reversed Thursday by
the Student Coordinating Council.
An ad hoc committee, headed by
Robert Weiner, an undergraduate,
was formed to investigate the
implications of a raise in stipends
at the Coordinating Council
meeting.
Commenting on the issue,
Student Association President Bill
Austin said: "I have to work at
this job all summer. 1 don’t get
paid until September. The fee
doesn’t cover expenses. This job is
very time-consuming. Being paid,
I couldn’t apply for a loan from
the University. I have to live like
everyone else. Most students
spend more than $1250 a year on
themselves. It’s not the money 1
want
I want to do the job.”
“Constitutionally, it’s legal to
raise stipends. Under Article II,
section I of the constitution, it
says: “The Polity and/or the
Student Coordinating Council
shall have the power to discuss
and legislate policies concerning
their general welfare and interest.
Legislation of the Polity
supercedes legislation
of the
Student Coordinating Council,
with the exception of financial
allocation. All legislation, with the
exception of the allocation of
funds to student organizations of
the Student Coordinating Council,
is subject to review by the
Polity.”
Mr. Austin explained that what
may happen is the adoption of a
double standard, money or credit
hours. “Look,” he continued,
“you may feel very good inside,
but outside you’re starving.”

“What did you say

Weiner, chairman of the ad hoc

ones who could raise their own

“The problem emanates from
the fact that when a student
becomes a member of the
Coordinating Council, the amount
of time devoted to fulfilling his
duties precludes the possibility of
him holding any outside job.”*

“Mr. Weiner’s suggestion
concerning the use of the
work-study program funds is an
extremely inadequate one.
Work-study funds are available
only to students whose family
incomes are of the lowest levels.
Since a student’s financial
situation at college is dependent
upon not only how much money
his parents actually earn, but
upon how much they can afford
to send to him, using work-study
funds will exclude a student
whose family income is not that

low, but doesn’t receive much
money from home because of
extenuating circumstances. This
example applies to several
members of the Coordinating
Council,” Mr. Arnold concluded.

In reacting to Mr. Weiner’s
statement, Dennis Arnold,
Student Rights Coordinator,
stated: “This plan is extremely
unrealistic, since I doubt that any

Laura Nyro,
by James Brennan
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

A lady from the city. Singing words
as sounds, writing songs as images, and

performing them like the characters
they deal with.
She’s a newly kissed adolescent, a
well-used whore, or on the lighter side,
a concrete picnicker. All of these
women are the faces she takes on in
her singing.
The she-poet that I refer to is Laura
Nyro, and her vocal verse will be
presented this Saturday night at 8:30
in Kleinhans Music Hall.
Born on College Ave. in the Bronx
in 1947, Miss Nyro’s style has been
called “pure city music, untouched by
levee or plantation.” Her hometown
paper, the New York Times, calls her
“the hippest - and maybe the hottest”
young performer going on the pop
music scene today.
Attending Janis Ian’s old alma
mater, Laura Nyro was educated at the
High Schpol of Music and Art in
Manhattan. Her father was a jazz
trumpeter and she started writing her
own songs at age eight.
In a recent Times interview, she
recalls, “The music of that era was
neither here nor there, but I always
knew that ‘Moon/June’ was not what
love was all about.”

On her first album, Miss Nyro came
off commercial-sounding, backed up
by a large group of musicians with
double and triple dubbings. But on her
latest album, she comes through much
Nyro
more natural. Doing Laura
accompanied by Laura Nyro, she sheds
the schmaltz of the recording studio
and seems to find herself musically.
With a three-octave range, her voice
is adept at diving through melodies and
varying tempos. Her live concert
should be quite an experience because
of her ability to shift moods and vocal
sounds.
Appearing with Miss Nyro will be
another young lyricist and singer
Biff Rose. He has just recently come
out with an album on Tetragramraaton
Records, Bill Cosby’s record company.

Raised in a strict southern home (as
biography calls it), Biff Rose
graduated from Loyola University of
the South. In the Army, he found
himself in the Communications Corps
as a code specialist. Whether this
exposure to cryptographies has
effected his lyrics is yet to be
ciphered?
After winning the all-Army
TaTalent Competition in 1963, Rose
was transferred to Special Services,
U.S. Army Showmobile in Maryland.
Upon his discharge, he moved to
Baltimore in performing at various
coffee houses in the area. The 'next five
years saw Rose move from Baltimore
to Greenwich Village to Los Angeles,
where he wrote comedy material for
the John Davidson Show.
During this time he was writing
songs and parodies, which the talent
scout from Tetragrammation Records
liked. The name of his first album is
“The Thorn in Mrs. Rose’s Side.”
His singing style has been described
as “a loose combination between folk
and pop.” As one of the lines from his
song, “The Man” goes: “Don’t look
but someone in front of you is
standing alone and singing.”

Kauffmann: modern
films are mediocre
by Sharon Sunshine
Special to the Spectrum

“When the first motion picture
flashed on the screen, the double
life of all moviegoers was
revealed.” concluded Stanley
Kauffmann. film critic of the
“New Republic." at his Thursday
afternoon lecture in Norton Hall.
Mr.
Kauffmann whose
somewhat pedantic speaking style
faintly suggests a conductor
leading his orchestra, occupied a
safe neutral position throughout
the course of his talk, fortifying
each of his major statements with
endless qualifications.
tCauffmann launched his
speech in a "negative vein,”
stating the faults of movies and
their production. He traced
today’s film craze to the changing
trends of the past ten years. “The
dories (produced) were affected
by great cultural and social

Television, unlike films, “is not
keyed to individual or small group
exercize," and for that reason is a
much

less

effective

classroom

device than the latter.

Raising three points in negative
criticism, Kauffman believes that
“film-going is too easy,” not in
relationship to the availability of
movies or the act of attending a
picture, but in reference to the
frame of mind of the viewer.

In moviegoing there is a
persistent sense of escapism. “It is
easier to see a film than to read a
book, decifer the new music, or
ingest paintings and sculpture . . .
Refuse is found in the moviehouse
what we find there is a state of
deliberate dumbness.”

Lazy and guilty
Kauffmann suggests that the

new film craze is somewhat like
the man who seeks out a

whorehouse. The visits to the
theater leave the filmgoer, like the
man in the, brothel, lazy but

difficult, he feels, for a
writer to describe an image than
for a photographer to caputre it
on celluloid. A reasonably
intelligent child with' a steady
hand can take a good movie.
“Therefore, filmmaking must
begin further on esthetically since
the first step is so easy.”
He believes that most films
which are released are mediocre or
worse, and, in addition, feels that
it may be too late for Western
culture to find films as an art. The
older arts, such as literature and
music, breezed through the
century armed with tradition and
master works.

Transitional phase
Films, on the other hand, are
in a transitional phase. “Practice

What is lacking is a

esthetics.
The “des auteurs” theory, a

redundant as his lecture.)
The “auteur” theory, very
simply, postulates the director as
the real author of the film.
Consequently, a
film's
achievement and the interest
which it arouses in audiences are
generated by the director’s style.
The “auteur” critics, according
to Kauffmann, decide in advance
what the quality of a director’s
new film is going to be, the nature
of their judgment strongly
depending on their response to his
past work.
The practice is known as
pre-destination, and Kauffmann
finds this school of critics rather
ridiculous. As an alternative, he
recommends that a reviewer
confine his attention to the merits
of the work at hand.
Finally, Kauffmann expresses
his dislike of filmdom’s huge
“heritage of commercialism
Movies, particularly in this
country, are geared to a large
return of capital. Most films, as a
result, crimp their truths and
flatten audience lifestyles.”
Urgining that films strive for
the same heights as have been
attained in the other esthetic
fields, he hoped that the medium
would no longer be merely
regarded as a branch of the
graphic arts.

Can any decisions as to the
final allocation of funds be made
at this time? Dr. Serfustini said;
"We want a good strong

program. There are so many

problems involved that one must
view the total scene. We want to
make sure we have a fine program.
We must take a close look before
any decisions are made.”
Dr, Serfustini indicated that
the committee can make no
definite decision now because it
does not yet have access to the
information required.

Hockey status
The hockey team needed the
current affirmation of the
committee to obtain status as a
varsity team. With varsity status,
the team could have scheduled
such opponents as Cornell, ranked
first in the east, and Colgate,
another eastern power. Because
the commitment could not be
made immediately, the team has
lost its opportunity of playing
these teams in the coming season.
General Manager Howard

Plaster,

who

has

almost

single-handedly molded the club
from nothing to the nation’s
number one ranked team for the
last two years, said he realized
that the misfortunes his team will
have to endure are necessary to

insure the future of the overall
athletic program.

“1 fully subscribe to the
reforms being made by the new
committee. I feel there will be a
place for hockey, but it is for the
good of the entire program that a
decision not be made in the light
of all the ramifications.”
Although the final decision
concerning the team's status
cannot be made before the most
lucrative ghmes could be
scheduled, this does not mean
that the whole hockey program

will be shelved. A revised schedule
for the upcoming season could yet
be instituted, thereby paving the
way for an extremely promising
future. Even though he was
disappointed over the necessary
revisions, Mr. Plaster was still
capable pf voicing optimism,
saying: "Things might turn out
like we

want.”

The executive committee will
continue to gather information
relevant to the formation of the
kind of athletic program that is
desired by the student body, and
will not reach any decisions until
this task is completed.

OYSTER BAY
Great universities across the country
and around the world have been racked with what the press
calls ‘student disorders.’ It’s ‘militant’ students who seize the
administration buildings, demanding amnesty and other
non-negotiables. The backlash is with us today.
-

Old Westbury’s 83 students
haven’t seized any buildings yet.
President
Harris Wofford
continues to speak of “full
partnership” with students,
faculty and administrators
submitting themselves to the
“persuasion of the conference
table,’” where everything is
negotiable

But that persuasion has been
strained over at least five issues
Old Westbury has confronted (or
attempted to confront) during its
sex,
first year of operation
drugs, race, freedom of the press
and democracy. Some have pitted
students against the
administration, others the college
against the community.
It was early last fall when a
young Old Westbury coed, at a
College -wide
meeting,
complained: "1 really like this
coed living, but I don’t appreciate
it when young men shower in the
stall next to mine.”

Council pressures for rules
Old Westbury now had to face
the question of parietal rules, and
all the related age-old questions.
The little community of Westbury
was (and is) watching carefully.
The si u dent-fa cultyadministralion decision was to
establish no rules except
separation of the sexes into two
wings of the dormitories. Now the
College Council is asking President
Wofford to present them, by May
1. “proposals for parietal hours,
distribution of sexes in the
dormitories and rules dealing with
violence on campus." Says one
Council member from Westbury,
Abraham Shames: “Innovation
should not be at the expense of
certain tested social values."
Says President Wofford: “It
seems there is something in the
experiment that is so central
that is so important
that some
adjustments must be made."

Keep College ‘clean’
It was also near the beginning
of its first year that Old Westbury
had to face a second issue

to be made, and for good reason.
The College was being scrutinized
by such persons as Westbury
Times editor and Council member
Martin Weiss, who has publicly
deplored the "Yippic' reputation
the College is getting.”
Students and faculty decided
to keep the college ‘clean’ through
self-enforcement. A bust would
hurt the new College too much.
One student who blatantly
misused drugs was asked to leave
soon after the policy was
formulated.
The question of admissions was
one to which
the College
addressed itself. Students
demanded that 50% of the next
class be non-white students.

High schools join rebellion
is

by Dorie Klein
College Editor

In Tully, a small town near Syracuse,
New York, four high school students were
punished and prevented from publishing an

underground newspaper.
In Michigan, a teacher was removed
from a high school for allegedly using
obscenity in class, and another teacher was
fired at the same school for bringing in two
White Panthers as guest speakers.
A Buffalo high school student was tried,
convicted and fined $100 for using
obscenity and harassing the assistant
principal of a vocational high school.
Something is happening in the high
schools, and in parts of the country, high
schools are undergoing upheaval more
devastating than in the universities.
In New York City, students seized the
opportunity presented by last fall’s
teachers’ strike to organize and protest
repression and racism in the public school
system.

Attempts dismissal
The Board of Education attempted to
moderate the tension by establishing a
student-administration-teacher committee
to establish curriculum and form guidelines
for student conduct. But the effort was
rejected as appeasement by the student
groups involved in the protests.
In a more direct way, the Board tried to
dismiss almost 700 students from Franklin
Lane High, scene of constant disruption in
Brooklyn’s ghetto. But they were stopped
in the courts by the New York Civil
Liberties Union.
Students have only begun in New York.
The much publicized Spring Offensive
organized by the Student Union is under
way.

rebellion is more perplexing to
administrators, teachers and parents.

In the case of students at Bronx
Science, an outstanding example of white
rebellion, it is a challenge to the elitism of
schools admitting students on the basis of
performance on exams geared to
middle-class whites.
One hundred Bronx students, out of a
total body of 3200, demonstrated Tuesday
in the records room of the school to open
Science to the minority groups. Among the
ten demands: To expand black and Latin
enrollment to the proportion of 55% (their
proportion of the city population at large);
to admit 25 black and Latin teachers by
September (there are now two, out of 160
faculty members); to incorporate black and
Latin history into the curriculum; to form
a student-faculty committee to run the
school based on proportional
representation of the groups (one man
one vote), and to implement the 20
demands of last fall’s student movement.
The 20 demands were overwhelmingly
approved by a referendum held at the end
of the teachers’ strike, and include basic
reforms such as the elimination of the
“pass” system to use the halls.
The Spring Offensive at Science and
other New York schools was suggested in
the New York High School Free Press,
which sponsored a High School Student
Union conference last Saturday. Abbie
Hoffmann spoke, Newsreel showed films
and students discussed tactics and issues.
Among the issues raised was whether
seemingly trivial manifestations of
repression - such as program-card rules
were valid
and dress regulations
organizing and demonstrating targets.
The Free Press had proposed ten general
demands for city schools: no more
suspensions; no cops in school; no program
cards; an end to general and commercial
diplomas; open admissions to college
(including the State University); jobs and
decent housing for high school graduates;
no military recruitment in the schools;
community control of the schools and
other public facilities, and student power
over their own lives.

In the black schools, student disruption

Dr. King’s birthday will become a
holiday in New York in 1970.
Both whites and blacks are angry over
the Board of Education’s use of
suspensions, which the Free Press claims is
intended to “isolate from the rest of the
student body those students with ideas in
opposition to those of the established
order.”

Suspensions up
This year, the city’s suspensions
represented a 300% increase over the
previous year.

At Taft High, Ron Dicks, a black
student, was suspended for distributing a

At
Science, two white activists - .Paul Steiner
and Jon Grell
were suspended amj did
not receive a hearing for two weeks (the
rules say five days).
Students have the courts on their sides
in certain areas, as recently demonstrated
by the Tinker case. The Supreme Court
held that the school officials in Iowa who
suspended students wearing black
armbands as Vietnam protests violated the
First Amendment. And a federal district
court voided a Wisconsin regulation that
concerned the length of students' hair as a*
violation of the due-process clause of the
Fourteenth Amendment.

The distinction between “disruptive”
and “nondisruptive" activities
the latter
including armbands and miniskirts
becomes increasingly unclear when the
issue is out-and-out political. Handing out
underground papers has been deemed
—

“disruptive.”

The American Civil Liberties Union has
attempted to work out acceptable
guidelines in “Academic Freedom in the

outlining teachers' and students’ basic
rights. Students, says ACLU, should be
guaranteed the right to prepare and publish
newspapers, access to public address

systems and bulletin boards, freedom from
inquiry into their records by governmental
agencies, and rights of assembly and
extracurricular activity. The ACLU
opposed mandatory loyalty oaths and dress
codes. It recommended student-faculty
committees to handle disciplinary
procedure.

The rebellion in the high schools may
often focus on issues which seem trivial to
college students, but many younger
activists are aware of larger social and
political questions, which are the
underlying factors of high school
repression and racism. When combined
with the changing life style of high school
including casual use of drugs
students
the power of their rebellion becomes
trmendous in its potential.
A final word: in Ann Arbor, Michigan,
sixth-grade students organized into Kids

teacher was fired. One of the leaders, Andy

Pentagon wants air surveillance
by The Christian Science Monitor

The cessation of ship surveillance of
North Korea created a void the Pentagon
hoped partially to fill through
reconnaissance fights.
Thus, the Navy was trying through the
use of such planes as the EC-121 downed
by the North Koreans in the Sea of Japan
to keep information on North Korean
activities at a reasonable level.
The Pentagon never admitted it publicly
until the plane was lost, but all ship
surveillance of the North Korean coast was
discontinued after the Pueblo was seized
about 15 months ago.
The Pentagon claims that the aircraft
flights were not stepped up after the
Pueblo was taken and that the mission of
the plane was not a substitute for the
Pueblo mission.
The plane, however, was able to do
some things that the Pueblo had specialized
in. There are indications that other
activities of the Pueblo and its sister ship
off the coast of North Korea have ceased
completely.
The airplanes such as the lost EC-121
had been operating in increased number as
North Korean belligerance has increased.

Military importance stressed

Although President Nixon’s decision to

resume the reconnaissance flights with
protection was based largely upon a
determination to show United States
unwillingness to be cowed, an underlying
reason was the military importance of
those flights particularly in this period of
uncertainty.

According to the Pentagon there were
190 flights similar in nature flown in the
general area during the first three months
in 1969.

It has not been explained why the
missions of ships such as the Pueblo have
ceased. Observers surmise that the
Pentagon felt duty-bound to prevent the
chance of another such seizure. But
continued use of ships probably would
have reduced the usefulness of the ships.
Because of sheer size, ships like the PUeblo
are able to do more reconnaissance and
surveillance work than aircraft. They hold
a great deal more equipment.
Although ships can be used very nicely
to listen to things in the water, such as
submarines and other ships, airplanes offer
some advantages not found in ships. The
operating altitude of about 20,000 feet
gives greater line-of-sight abilities despite
greater distances from shore; consequently
airplanes can listen to radar and radio
transmissions farther inland.

Airplanes limited

Of course, airplanes do not offer the
one use that the Tonkin Gulf incident so
aptly demonstrated. Ships can excite
enemy radars and listen to what happens.
This is particularly useful to learn
operating frequencies and locations of
enemy installations both to provide current
intelligence and forfuture use if necessary.
Although aircraft can do some checking
of radars, the combination of ships and
pi anes is necessary to keep a
comprehensive intelligence analysis of
enemy electronics capabilities.
The Pentagon has other means of
watching North Korea. These include
extensive installations in South Korea, as
well as satellites. There is also a possibility
that some work is done by the extremely
high-flying SR-71 aircraft, which can do a
great deal of looking even on missions not
over North Korean soil or territorial
waters.

Compromise urged
new party leader and First
• The
Secretary is Slovak strongman Gustav
Husak, who ever since the Russian invasion
has urged a policy of realistic compromise
with them as the only way of saving some
of the reforms and getting the occupation
forces out of the country.
His probable climb to power was
foreshadowed by a forceful, “hard-line”
speech he made a week before the meeting
of the Central Committee which
announced the change of leadership late in
the evening of April 17.
In this speech he heavily criticized the
Dubcek leadership for its latitude toward
the “liberals,” the so-called “anti-Soviet
forces” and demanded a firmer attitude
toward Soviet demands for complete press
censorship and other major cutbacks in last
year’s reform program.
The pressure from Moscow was
ruthlessly toughened a few weeks ago after
the disturbances in Prague and other Czech
cities amid the national jubilation at the
ice-hockey triumph over the Soviet Union.
Force threatened
Soviet Defense Minister A. A. Grechko
flew in at the head of a Kremlin delegation
to threaten Soviet force to “restore order”
if the Prague leaders failed to curb
anti-Soviet outbursts and keep the country
in line.
The television appearance of President
Svoboda to inform the nation of the
change at the head of the party was
followed by a brief communique.
This, however, added only that Mr.
Dubcek, whom the President warmly
eulogized, will be given a high state post.
This is generally expected to be the
chairmanship of Parliament, an office held
by Mr. Smrkovsky until the Russians
forced his demotion to vice president at
the beginning of the year.
The new Presidium list was published
overnight by most of the East European

Dubcek out

9

occasions.
The country so far has reacted quietly
to the reshuffle at the top.
There were rumblings from the factories
and the students that their removal or that
of other leading “liberals” would provoke
strong protests and possibly also strikes.
But a statement from the nearly
one-million-strong Czech metalworkers’
union, the biggest in the country, urged
prudence and calm while the full
implications of the change are being
reviewed.
Overnight there had been what has
become the customary crop of rumors and
wild stories at such crisis moments. But the
late-night traffic already was tailing off
when President Svoboda appeared on the
television screen.
Near midnight, on Wenceslas Square a
score or so of people waited for last trams.
The “troops” which, according to one
story, reportedly occupied the square as a
security precaution were four police
patrolmen gossiping at a corner. There was
nothing else for them to do.
With daybreak, this late winter was
coating the city with snow in an apparent
ironic contrast to the rich, warm April
spring of just a year ago.
On a first balance, things might have
been much worse. The Russians have
gained what they have been after since
August when they hijacked Mr. Dubcek
and Mr. Smrkovsky to Moscow the day
they marched into Prague.
They had made plain their dislike and
distrust of these two symbols of the reform
movement and their desire to see them
replaced many months ago.

Countrymen warned
Now they havti succeeded. After the
ice-hockey excesses, Mr. Dubcek warned
his countrymen they face the worst of the
many crises which

have hit them since

August. “For these events,” he said, “we
will again have to pay a high political
price.” And the man who wanted to give a
Communist regime a “human face” is part
of that price. But the rest is more moderate
and, so far as is at present known, less
exacting than had been anticipated.

Husak's

Mr.

“realist”

attitude

has

obviously been music in Soviet ears. But it
would be an oversimplification to regard as
pro-Russian the man who played a
promiment part in the liberal breakthrough
in Slovakia in the early ’60s and who
before that was himself a victim of the
Stalinist regime.

His view has been that Czechoslovakia’s
only way out of its problems is, so to
speak, to make a virtue of necessity by
accepting the hard fact of occupation and
to “get along” with the Soviets in the
interests of salvaging the maximum
possible of the original reform program.

William Yates, a University
graduate student and a member of
that organization, discussed the
operations and goals of the group.
He said ' that the purpose is
primarily to contact white persons

The group is primarily addressing
these workers regarding racism in
the United States, institutional
racism, ethnic conflict and the
effect of racism in the economy
of Buffalo.
“Solidarity” of the white
workers with the black workers
will be stressed, according to Mr.

the students decided that
discussions were premature.
SDS had said prior to the
meeting that a vote would be
taken.
Most classes were cancelled
Wednesday as discussion between
all segments of the university
continued.
One of the bills, sponsored by
Bronx Democrat Alexander
Chananau, would make possession
of a firearm on university grounds
a class D felony, punishable by
imprisonment for as long as seven
years.

Mr. Chananau said that “the
legislature must deal With the
possibility that “the cycle of
disruption and violence will soon

university and local enforcement
officials are either powerless or

Meanwhile the Cornell faculty

thus avoiding possible further
confrontation between the
administration and members of
the Afro-American Society.
Most of the 1500 members of
the faculty attended a meeting at

Q: Can a student who is drafted or enlists in service before the end
of the semester receive credit for any of his completed course work?
A: University College regulations state that: “Students called to
any branch of the military service, or who enlist therein, or who, being
full-time members of the armed forces are transferred from the Niagara
Frontier area, after the end of the tenth week, but before the end of a
semester, may, with the instructor's approval, be granted full academic
credit in courses in which they were maintaining a passing grade at the
time of leaving the University.
Q: What is all the drilling and construction going on between
Goodyear and Clement Hall? Why wasn’t it done over the Easter
Vacation? It is such an inconvenience at 8:30 in the mbrning when
you’re trying to sleep!
A: The drilling noise was created by an air-hammer. Refrigerated
garbage disposal units are being installed between Goodyear and
Clement Hall and by Tower Hall. A private constructor is handling the
job and operates on his own time schedule. The work phase that
required the air-hammer is now completed, and the total job should be
finished within a week.
Q: Do Regent Scholarship benefits cover the mandatory student
activity or college fees?
A: No. Georgia Lehner, supervisor of scholarships of the Office of
Student Accounts, informed us that Regent Scholarships cover tuition
payments and all educational fees, i.e., laboratory, diploma and
registration, according to the Policies and Procedures of the State
University of Buffalo. The State University of Buffalo, however, does
not charge the aforementioned fees.
Q: Why are the two “facilities” in the Lockwood Annex marked
“staff” men only and “staff” women only, when “faculty men” and
‘faculty women” designations have been discontinued everywhere else
on campus? There are no other facilities in the Lockwood Annex and
only two “facilities” in the whole building.
A: William B. Ernst, assistant director of University Libraries,
said: “The reasons for making this designation originally have been
re-examined, especially since these facilities are currently being used
by everyone, and the “staff only” signs have been removed.”
Q: What is the $12.50 per semester college fee? Who assesses it,
what is it used for? Is it mandatory and, if so, why?
A: The $12.50 semester college fee is part of a mandatory $25.00
yearly college fee levied by Albany and paid to Albany. It is applied
towards the amortization of residence hall building costs throughout
the state system.
Q: Next

year, can students still have

only 16 hours of applied

credit?
A; The applied credit rule was abolished, effective in January
1968, for students transferring into the University at that time; and in
September 1968, for other students. Courses formerly known as
“applied credit” courses are now counted as elective credit.

Q: When a student is dropping a course, where does he have to go
to turn in the drop slip?
A: Hayes Annex B, in the Office of Admissions and Records.
Q: Where can I find out the exam schedule for May 1969?

time of exams for day school classes, by section, has been distributed

Miss Coleman:
To re-evaluate University admissions policies, the
New Student Affairs coordinator should consult with
the vice president for Academic Development and the
vice president for Student Affairs to gain insight into the
considerations that must be made while determining
admissions policy. The National Student Association
might be a valuable source of information concerning
admissions policy at other universities. An evaluation of
the present admissions policy would be imperative and
may be realized by working with certain key areas such
as testing, housing, E.P.I.S., the Transfer Advisory
Board, and advisement to mention a few.

being planned by the
B.S.U. and people involved in the E.P.l.S. program. The
fall program is intended to bring all of these “special”
people together to form a very special community. I
cannot design an orientation program for special
admissions students, as I can’t for transfer or foreign
students because I am not adequately acquainted with
their specific needs; however, by working with groups
such as the B.S.U. and E.P.l.S., I can assist in
coordinating their activities with those in other
programs, and organize a total program of orientation
with subprograms directed by persons competent in
specific areas.

The Spectrum: What can be done to acquaint the new
student with academic reforms and the Colleges?

Mr. Cherney

In our society, there is a definite alienation of white
from non-white and vice versa. Whites associate with
whites, and blacks associate with blacks; in effect, the
races tend to set up barriers between themselves and
other races.
If the University
were to establish
special orientation
program for minority
groups, it would be
setting up
these
barriers within our
academic community.
It would defeat one of
the major purposes of
such a program, i.e.,
understanding through
group discussions and
group dynamics. Not
would the
minority group be
looked upon as an
entity in itself, but
they themselves would
feel an alienation from
other freshmen and
transfer students.
One of the major
advantages of a state
university is a liberal
atmosphere in which students of all ethnic groups can

tolerance,

but

of acceptance; students fighting for

principles and rights do not look at the color of their

allies’ skin.
The solution to problems associated with minority
groups in orientation programs is not to have special
orientation programs, but lies in the admission of a
greater number of minority group students. If
orientation exercises consisted of more of these
students, there would be less of a minority group feeling.
As stated in reply to the first question, as New
Student Affairs coordinator I intend to alter the
admissions policies so that more students from
underprivileged areas will be admitted to this University,
thereby increasing their number in the orientation
programs.

Mr. Cherney

Mr. Cherney

i

Although the State University of Buffalo is one of
the most liberal institutions of higher education in this
country, there is still a noticeable lack of blacks and
other minority groups attending this school. The
responsibility for this rests with the admissions policies
of the University.
Consideration should and must be given to the
underprivileged student who, because of his living
conditions and inadequate educational facilities, lacks a
very high scholastic average although he exhibits
considerable intelligence and maturity. Indeed, there are
many blacks at this University who have come from such
aforementioned conditions and despite these handicaps
are doing extremely well.
This fact alone points out the need for not only
re-evaluation, but reorganization of the University’s
admissions policies.
As New Student Affairs Coordinator, 1 will set up a
committee of interested students (regardless of color) to
investigate the “discriminatory” admissions policies and
make our findings public. Furthermore, we would work
in conjunction with such organizations as Upward
Bound in exerting all possible pressure on the Office of
Admissions and Records in establishing new policies or
altering the present strict criteria for entrance so that the
underprivileged, as well as the privileged, may further
their education at this “public” University.

The State University of Buffalo has undergone an
academic transformation of tremendous proportions.
After several years of argumentative analysis, it has been
decided to switch to a Four-Course Load and to
eliminate the basic distribution requirements. These
innovations have left many students unsure of “what’s
happening” and will undoubtedly confuse the incoming
freshmen and transfer students.
As New Student Affairs coordinator, I will work in
conjunction with the Academic Affairs coordinator in
setting up an advisement service to assist freshmen,
transfers and all other students in adjusting to the
academic reforms. I will also send fact sheets to
prospective freshmen and transfers who have been
accepted to the University, outlining the changes and
what they mean. Furthermore, I will make it a point to
have discussions on the changes during the summer
planning conferences and orientation.
During the planning conferences and orientation, 1
will make available representatives from each of the
colleges to discuss the new requirements of their
respective colleges.
Working with the Academic Affairs coordinator and
Office of Student Affairs, I will attempt to continue
such a program throughout the academic year for all
students.

The Spectrum: What can be done to help disadvantaged
students?

This year, the housing office was vastly inadequate.
It was too small, too short and often incorrect. Since the
numbers of students at this University is increasing, an
expanded off-campus housing program is necessary. The
office should put out a fact sheet about housing, the
laws pertaining to it, facilities required for the benefit of
students who don't have this kind of information. All
too often, students have been taken by landlords with
contracts with special clauses, and the student is out of
money and a home. I will also advise the student rights
coordinator to determine if legal action is possible.

also like to look into the idea of a workers college being
established on the new campus.
Lack of communication and high bookstore prices
are situations that put all students at a disadvantage. To
combat these, I would:
Try to set the bookstore up on a co-operative basis.
Many campuses around the country have used this
system to effectively lower high prices.
Publish a joint Faculty-Student directory.
Set up a permanent, well-informed communications

Disadvantaged students have a distinct problem in
that they are bound socially and economically. The
University cannot make up for their disadvantages, but it
can provide for these students the opportunity to
advance themselves. I would work with the Community

campus for the underprivileged high school seniors in the
ghetto. I would send speakers to the high schools to
encourage students to come to our University. I will

The very name “Placement Office” is a misnomer.
Ideally it should be called “Office for Career Guidance
and Information.” This office should never be reduced
to a mere functionary of outside corpqrations, where
nothing more is done than match names and jobs.
Rather it should act as a counseling service for students
from the freshman level to graduation, where
information about opportunities are made available to
all students.
After talking to people in the Placement Office i
found there are several inequities, both within the office
and outside, that should be remedied. For one thing the
office has only recently begun career guidance and
placement for women. I think much more emphasis
should be placed in this area. Secondly, 1 found that
American corporations and boards of education are
highly discriminatory against foreign students. This
office and others should make an effort to provide equal
opportunities for all concerned.

Mr. burner
The Placement Office’s function is to provide jobs
for graduate as well as undergraduate students. I will
propose a bulletin board listing jobs available, to be set
up in Norton Hall. This would be convenient for
students as well as informative. Included in this bulletin
board would be clippings from the newspapers in the
area which list job openings, especially summer
positions.

Another important aspect of the Placement Service
is that it is supposed to be a Career Guidance service
also. The service should stock resource material on
federal careers, private corporation positions, etc. for

music is often inspirational; they
have been known to perform an
entire evening in absolute silence,
and it was said that the crowds

He goes on to describe the
Lyman Family supporters as
people “holding to the undying
belief that though it may not be
music, at least it doesn’t pretend
to be, and when it is music, then
it doesn’t pretend to be anything

The name of the game is fear. We spend most of
our waking hours trying to avoid “stressful’'
situations. Stresful situations seem to be those that
we are taught to fear, or at least attempting to find
an absolute'y stressful situation, one that is
upsetting/fear provoking across all cultures, is very
difficult. The conclusion then seems to be that we
are taught to get upset, because if we did not get
upset, then we would not (might not?) function as
efficiently.

In the university situation, the obvious facets of
the game are two-fold. One approach is to get the
highest marks possible. Because without good marks
one cannot go to graduate school, get good jobs and
have a nice tidy future. The other approach is to get
by with as little work as possible so that more time
can be spent on the important facts of life: booze,
sex and the social arts. (There are reputed to be
some people who actually combine these two
approaches but ( have yet to meet one such in the

Dreaming aside, it seems rather apparent to me
that the marks paranoia game isn’t worth it in any
shape, form or manner. If you are getting good
marks to assure all that leads up to and includes a
tidy future, good luck. If you can see a tidy future
ahead of you, more power to you. If you are trying
to prove your superiority to the more fallible
humans around you, well, it’s your ego trip and I

The defense has had the edge
in scrimmages to date. The
offense is expected to close the
g%p once successful adaptation
from the Notre Dame “I” of the
Urich regime is completed.
Coach Deming has instituted a
plan of attack quite different
from that of his predecessors. It
promises to feature a lot of
motion and a more even
distribution of ball-carrying
chores among the offensive backs.
Seasonal prospects seem to
depend upon performers in the
key positions of quarterback and

hardest hit by graduation.

Bursting bubbles state-wide
Students at Stony Brook have asked lor a moratorium
on construction until a method is devised to fully integrate
the construction trades working on the Long Island campus.
Stony Brook President Toll says he is against such a
moratorium, apparently on the advice of the State
University Construction Fund.
The Fund sees a rosy future for ‘negotiations' with labor
and industry leaders and minority groups to resolve the
controversy. However, in the case of the lifting of the
Buffalo moratorium, the negotiations only included a
'friendly' faction of the black community and no students;
and things are still very much up in the air here.
While the Fund is so optimistic publicly, it continues its
uptight shenanigans; meetings today at Stony Brook arc a
sign that the movement generated by the state-wide
organizing of Buffalo’s Work For All threatens to burst the
racist bubble protected for so long by Albany’s smiling
inactivity.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in Chief

It is a known fact that for their colonial aims.
South Africa and Portugal are highly interested in
balkanizing the African continent.
Hence, they supply arms to Biafra, determined
to disintegrate Africa on tribal bases. Biafran success
would be a start of a chain reaction that would result
in complete chaos on the whole continent, causing
more bloodshed and greater human suffering than
ever experienced in human history.
This simple fact is known by the African leaders
who understand the Nigerian problem more than any
non-African. It is not surprising, therefore, that they
have always supported unity, not only in the existing
nations, but also in the O.A.U.
However, Sen. Goodell questioned my source of
information regarding the fact that South Africa and
Portugal supply arms to Biafra. In reply, I referred to
a speech given last month on this campus by an
African leader. This African leader, who is a minister
in Kenya, stated that “South Africa, France and
Portugal do sell arms to Biafra.”

Criticizes arms for Biafra

'

National news media, the local press, sociologists and
freshman political science instructors are currently obsessed
with a popular topic these days; ‘student rebellion.’
Surveys, questionnaires, interviews, etc. are being
circulated and solicited across the country, in apparent
attempts to ‘understand’ the restlessness of the kids of the
nation. Generally such investigations are entitled, ‘Student
Protest’, ‘Campus Riots’, etc. Public and private school, and
government officials are asking or are being asked ‘how to
deal with the problem.’
The ‘movement’ grows, yet the smug adult assumption
still prevails that everything would be alright if loudmouth
‘dissidents’ would only ‘shut up.’ The only thing that will
make the ‘dissidents’ shut up is a society that will ‘put up.’
People seem to have forgotten that ‘the problem,’ as it is
so simplistically put, lies not with the nation’s youth, but
rather with its adults.
Denial, compromise or repression of youthful calls for an
end to inhumanity are denials of the future
and we have
been denied the future for too long.

children, two of them now seven and nine, whose
future is infinitely more precious to me than my
own. So it isn't just their generation; it’s mine too.
We’re all in it together.
Are we to have a chance to live? We don’t ask
for prosperity, or security - only for a
reasonable
chance to live, to work out our destiny in peace
and
decency, not to go down in history as the
apocalyptic generation.
I don’t think there are problems of youth, or
student problems. All the real problems I know
are
adult problems.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Rocky signs mandatory guideline bill
by Sarah deLaurentis
News Editor

University President Martin Meyerson
withheld comment yesterday regarding a
bill signed by Gov. Rockefeller to deal with
campus disorders. Gilbert Moore, executive
assistant to Mr. Meyerson said that the
president would not discuss the
implications of the bill until a complete
copy had been received from Albany.
Gov. Rockefeller signed the bill Monday
which requires all public and private
institutions to adopt and file within 90
days of a set of plans for the maintence of
campus order and strict punishment for
dealing with campus disturbances.
Failure to file these rules within 90 days
of the effective date of the legislation
could result in the school losing its state
aid.
Under the new law the rules adopted by
the board of trustees of each college would
govern the conduct of students, faculty,
staff and visitors to the campus.
Penalties are to include provisions for:
ejection of violators from the campus
suspension, expulsion or other
appropriate disciplinary action in the case
of a student or faculty violator.
There is no requirement in the bill
which calls for state enforcement of the
individual plans of each college.

The bill signed by Gov. Rockefeller was
developed as an alternative to the stricter
bills, however, they are being acted on
individually by the governor.
“Urgent need”
In signing the bill Gov. Rockefeller said
that there is “an urgent need” for adequate

plans for student-university relations.
He commented that the absence of
plans for student-university relations and
rules governing conduct on campuses
create “an atmosphere in which serious
disorders arise and destroy the orderly
functioning of any university.”
Action by Gov. Rockefeller was
prompted most recently by the incidents
occurring on the campus of Cornell
University. Some 100 armed Black
students seized the Student Union there
which resulted in the declaration of an
“emergency situation” by James Perkins,

president of that university.

Administrators had reportedly signed an
amnesty agreement to drop proceedings
against five blacks arrested in an earlier
demonstration while black students stood
over them with guns.
Armed occupation
The occupiers, brandishing rifles,
shotguns, spears and clubs marched out of
the student union to the Afro-American
Study Center where they were given
written assurance that they would be
granted amnesty.
The university also agreed to assume
responsibility for any damages to the hall.
It was pointed out, however, that Cornell
could nos stop legal action against the
students by private individuals such as
employees or parents who had been
removed from the building by the
occupiers.

president Steven Muller who
negotiated with the students said that it
was evident that the university does not
have the resources “to assure that life and
•property are not endangered.”
Vice

No choice

officials stated that they had
little choice but to give in on the point of
amnesty. One official added that Cornell’s
ecperience emphasized that institutions of
higher learning as presently structured are
not able to deal effectively in such
situations where forcible takeovers of
buildings are involved.
In Albany republican Senator William
Smith criticized Cornell officials saying
that they had “acted out offearr” and that
the students should have been disarmed “if
not by local police, by the state police or
National Guard.”

Freedom not restricted
Gov. Rockefeller said tha the bill
“specifically declares that it shall not
operate to limit or restrict the freedom of
speech or peaceful assembly.”
Another bill on campus disorders is
awaiting action by Gov. Rockefeller. This
bill, if signed, would take away all
scholarship aid from students convicted of
breaking the law in campus disturbances
anywhere in the country.
The Flynn bill as it is called after
its sponsor, John E. Flynn, a Yonkers
republican
will probably npt receive
endorsement by the governor. It has been
opposed by legislators on the grounds that
it is discriminatory against low income
students who receive state stipends. It
would not affect those students involved in
campus disorders who pay their own
tuition.
At present students can receive a
maximum of $1000 in Regents scholarship
aid plus a maximum of $500 in scholar

awards.

Opposition to the Flynn bill had also
anne from State Education Commissionei
lames E. Allen Jr. who said that it
“by-passes” college officials who should be
responsible for setting regulations -Gruber
governing conduct on campuses.
A third bill concerned with campus
unrest is on the Senate calendar at this
time. This bill, passed by the Assembly,
would make it a misdemeanor for a student
°r faculty demonstrator to disrupt classes
°t prevent a student or teacher from
attending classes. Conviction under the bill
could lead to a $1000 fine or a year in jail.

only the opinion of some, for the
step he took earned him a friendly
telephone call from the President
and the approbation of Midcult
from coast to coast.
At the time campuses were
igniting all over the country.
Father Hesburgh chose this
moment
to release
a
long-pondered letter laying down
the Notre Dame line.
“The last thing a shaken
society needs is more shaking,” he
said. “Anyone or any group that
substitutes force for rational
persuasion, be it violent or
non-violent, will be given 15
minutes of meditation to cease
and desist.” There was a lot more,
much of it conciliatory, and most
of it acceptable to the faculty and
students with whom he had
discussed the issue. But this was
the passage that drew 200
laudatory editorials.
In some colleges, such a statute
of limitations might have been
salutary. Contemporary styles of
American higher education often
leave students with too little to
push against, except the
immovable rock of the country’s
entire social organization. But in
Notre Dame, as the brightest of
his students and the most sensitive
of his professors reminded Father
Hesburgh, all
that the
revolutionaries had actually done
was to lie down in the lobby of a
building in which a CIA talent
scout was conducting interviews,
and to invite students who wanted
a job to trample on them, the way
the CIA trampled on the rights of
small countries.
Instead of telling the national
press how such mild-mannered
would-be martyrs would be
punished, should not a Christian
university ask whether it really
wanted to smooth the path of
intelligence agents and napalm
manufacturers, by allowing them
to recruit on its premises?

Conference on Biafran struggle

Sen. Goodell urges U.S.

New York Senator Charles Goodell, giving a recount of
his recent trip to Nigeria and Biafra, estimated Saturday that
one and a half million people have died of starvation in that
country’s civil war. He predicted that if events continue,
more than that number will perish in the coming 12 months.

‘Roots

of Foreign Policy

by Bradley Rudin
Special lo

The Spectrum

Roots of American Foreign Policy, by Gabriel Kolko, Beacon Press,
Boston, 1969.
Gabriel Kolko, of the State University of Buffalo
Faculty of Social Science and Administration, in this small
volume has written the most incisive analysis of American
foreign policy since the publication of William A. Williams’
Tragedy of American Diplomacy ten years ago. Along with
Walter La Feber, Robert Smith, and other Left historians,
Kolko has systematically criticized the traditional and by
now quasi-official version of American foreign policy.
The traditionalists’ scenario
consists of a world suffering from
disorder and deprivation (the
causes of which are unexplained)
and the U.S., virginal in its
innocence, waiting hesitantly in
the wings. Tragedy occurs when
Uncle Sam altruistically tries to
“teach those Dominicans or
Vietnamese to elect good men.”
Because
America’s good
intentions are not understood by

mentioned above, the

takes issue with Mills on two

of seeing the military as “cousins”
of the ruling class. In reality they
are the instruments that class uses
in order to implement its policy

policy?

American diplomacy, he
argues, is a function of the needs
of the American business
community. The policy objectives
are aquisition of sources of vital
raw materials, locations for the
export of American capital, and
markets for American goods.
These objectives have been the
goals of American foreign policy
throughout the last 70 years.
However, at different points in
time greater weight has been given
to any particular objective. For
America in the last half of the
20th century, the need for raw
materials is particularly critical.
Since the American economy
operates in a fundamentally
irrational manner, raw materials
such as manganese necessary in
the production of steel can not be
conserved as long as steel is the
basic component of the
automobile which is produced to
be obsolescent in three years.
Thus the internal needs of
capitalism prevent a conservation
of vital raw materials, which in
turn produces the need to find
these natural resources abroad.

Capitalist necessity
Less adequately treated is the
theory
of
Leninist
underconsumption being the main
impetus of imperialism. Dr. Kolko
does not indicate whether goods
must be exported abroad because
consumption levels are too low at
home.

It also has a lot to do with the
creativity of the writers and the
quality of the musicians who find
financial recompense from a
poorly-discriminating public who
seem never to tire of the same ol’
thing. The only sense in which
most of what’s offered as new can
be seen as new and exciting stems
from the narrowness of the
background and perspective the
listener brings with him, and this
says even less of the audience than
it does for the performer.
A moment out to massage the
metaphor: the sexuality implicit
and explicit in the growth of
popular music has been aptly
documented by Frank Zappa. In a
country where voyeurism is
becoming a national sport, the
on-stage ‘performance’ often
overshadows the music that is
being played, and the Took’ of it
colors what is heard. With the
exception of the apocryphal Mr.
Hendrix, most groups of the
market today still just ‘play at’
fucking you with and through
their music. The attempt is of
living theater, but they’re just
unable to really pull it off.

Black Arts in review

Bob Jadd

Revolution, in the year 1969, is tantamount to one
thought to narrow-minded people; violence. This has
especially been the case with the black people today.
Suppressed, anguished black Americans have arisen against
the hypocritical white society just because we believed that
“all men were created equal” not just a selected few.
—

Before this social upheaval
occured, the average black man in
America had to be “just a bit
better” than the average white
man. Although legally free, social
freedom was far from being
realized. If it was, it was only for
exploitation in the way of the
brother’s creativity - the way he
expressed himself in music and
the arts. The race was, in a sense
of the word, “trampled on.” This

The point I’m trying to make is
this: after the happenings in the
streets, white persons began to
realize the fact that the black
people want to do their thing (i.e.,
they want not only social
equality, but a chance to prove to
the world that they got what it
takes to make it along side other
Americans of like qualities.) The
main focal point of this is
especially evident at

Henley course in St. Catherines
Ont. Saturday.
The victory, one of the more
significant triumphs in the crew’s
brief two and one-half year
history, was particularly sweet
because it avenged the
disappointing showing of a week

before, when the Buffalo boat
finished third behind Canisius and
visiting Stony Brook on the same
course.

It also marked, according fo

one observer, the fact the Buffalo
crew could now be considered an
equal to its arch-rivals, Canisius

and Buffalo State.

Upper class sport
To the uninformed, it might
soupd very strange that Western
New York should be such a
burgeoning area for crew.
The history of crew in this
country is long but essentially
limited in scope to the Eastern
prep schools like Andover, Exeter
and Choate and, on the collegiate
level, to the Ivy League. Crew,
like polo and fox-hunting, is a
sport that is associated with the
upper class and the exclusive
athletic clubs.
It is therefore not surprising
that the guiding light for crew
interest in this area is a private
athletic club, the West Side
Rowing Club.

Founded in 1912, the West
Side Rowing Club is dedicated, in
the words of its current president,
William I. Cotter, “to trying to
spread the gospel of rowing.”
Acting in the capacity of a
benevolent godfather, the club
supplies shells, oars and other
equipment at a nominal fee to
three colleges and nine high
schools in the area.
In addition, the club house,
located in Broderick Park near the
foot of the Peace Bridge, serves as
the meeting place and training
ground for the Buffalo rowing
population. The Black Rock
Channel adjacent to the club
house is the home course for
Buffalo’s rowing contests and
regattas.
Last minute details

A few hours before the race,
the four teams were assembled at
the clubhouse, making last minute
preparations for the afternoon’s

race.

In

one large room which took
up most of the first floor area,
rowing shells of various sizes and
shapes were stored in neat vertical
rows facing the opened end of the
room and the water. The room’s
general appearance resembled a
the
World War II landing craft
rowing shells, like other
-

water-connected apparatus which
has to be stored on land, looked
curiously strange because they
weren’t in the water. It looked as
if at any moment someone of a
goodly and kind nature would
press a button releasing the
trapped shells from their landed
entrapment and send them
hurtling into the inviting sea.

Royal Henley
Following the team meeting,
the Buffalo crew left for St.
Catherines and the Henley course,
a drive of some 35 miles.
The Henley course is the best
one in Canada. Each August it is
host to the Royal Canadian
Henley Regatta, the biggest and
most prestigious rowing event in
North America. It is located in a
wooded suburban area of summer
homes, small stores and quiet
streets
the kind of summer
vacation spot that the affluent
would inhabit.
—

Different outlooks
Each school was coming into
the race with a slightly different
outlook.
Canisius, surprise winner the
week before in the first regatta of
the season, was hoping to make it
two in a row. Buffalo State, which
finished a dismal last the week
before, had re-shuffled its crew in

hopes of better things this time
out. The mystery team, Ithaca,

was understandably nervous since
this was its first regatta in the
club’s brief history. They were of
unknown quality because they
had the advantage of spending the

Traditionally, crews are
composed of big, silent, crew-cut
types who are not known for their
mental prowess. The Buffalo team
is the complete anthithesis
noisy, small and very funky. They
-

have diverse interests and political
views ranging from being student
activists to hoping to make the
Navy a career.
Gabe Ferber, the last active

member of the original Buffalo
crew, tells of a time in Florida
when the coach complained that
the team was always talking. One
of the guys got up and answered
that the reason that this was so
was because everyone had a mind.

The

race

The race, originally set to be
2000 meters, was shortened to
1500 (about a mile) in deference
to It(iaca and its inexperience.
Buffalo took the lead at the start,
which was unusual because the
Bulls have the reputation of being
slow starters. The pace of over
forty strokes per minute began to
show its effect about
three-fourths of the way through
the race as the rowers began to
drag. Ithaca, formerly unknown
quality, was already out of the
running. Canisius and Buffalo
State were both rowing well,
picking up on the lead boat.
Buffalo, with a renewed effort
near the finish, withstood the
challenge and won by a quarter of
a boat length ower Canisius.
The future holds promise for
the Buffalo crew. Next year,
hopefully, the team will get
enough money for uniforms and a
bus for transportation The new
campus is scheduled to have a lake
and practice tanks for winter
training.
Presently there are no plans for
the crew club to go varsity but if

the Amherst facilities materialize
and enough people can be enticed
to go out for crew, so that
freshman and junior varsity shells
can be developed, who knows?

A javelin throw of h38 feet 7
inches landed Kevin Carriero a
first in that event. Another

Grant-in-aid
by Rich Baumgarten
Just how important is grant-in-aid to the State University of
Buffalo intercollegiate football program? Exactly what has been the
effect of grant-in-aid upon Buffalo football and the entire University?
Let’s take a look at the history of intercollegiate football at this
University and find out for ourselves.
The modern era of Buffalo football began in the years
immediately following World War II. Because of the GI Bill of Rights it
was relatively easy to establish a grant-in-aid program. The first
grant-in-aid went to war veterans and the effect on football was
immediate. In 1946, the team wpn 7 and lost 2 and a year later, won 8
and lost 1. During these two years, the-University of Buffalo football
team packed with veterans on aid, outscored the opposition 482 to
180.
In 1948, Jim Peelle gave up his football coaching job to devote
more time to his duties as athletic director. Frank Clair took over the
coaching job and his 1948-49 teams posted a combined record of 12-5.
Then in 1950. Dr. T. Raymond McConnell became chancellor and
the grant-in-aid completely cut off, the University of Buffalo football
teams from 1951-54 of any sort. During the McConnell years, not only
was all grant-in-aid discontinued, but funds for new football
equipment were shut off. Coach Clair immediately resigned to coach in
the Canadian professional football league, and he was replaced by Jim
Wilson who coached the 1950 and 1951 seasons.
From 1950-54, football at this University was all downhill. With
grant-in-aid completely cut off, the UB football teams from 1951-54
won a grand total of four games. Buffalo football became the
community joke and the overall reputation of the school was hardly
enhanced. Student and alumni interest dwindled to the vanishing point
and public interest in the school ceased to exist. By 1954, the end of
the intercollegiate football program was clearly in sight. That year, the
total attendance for five home games was a meager 6953.
Football as an intercollegiate sport, probably would have died if
Buffalo’s new chancellor Dr. Clifford Furnas had not moved to correct
a critical situation. Dr. Furnas, who had succeeded Dr. McConnell a
year earlier, moved quickly to save Buffalo football. In 1955, Dr.
Furnas brought Richard Offenhamer, a very capable coach, to the
Buffalo scene. Even more important. Dr. Furnas instituted a
grant-in-aid program. Interest in Buffalo began to revive and the
attendance for five home games in 1955 was a considerably improved
11,970.
Student interest and school spirit soared in the 1956 season
Attendance for four home games reached the 19,436 plateau
University of Buffalo’s first winning season in seven years.)
Aid continues; football prospers
Grant-in-aid continued, and with it, Buffalo’s football fortunes
prospered. In 1958, a new pinnacle of success was achieved as the
University of Buffalo gridders, posting an 8-1 record, earned the
Lambert Cup, emblematic of small college supremacy.
That same year, 1958, UB was invited to play in the Tangerine
Bowl in Tampa, Florida. Unfortunately, the Bulls never did get to
play. With the solid backing of the University and the Buffalo
community behind him. Athletic Director Peelle chose not to accept
the invitation when he learned the city of Tampa would not allow
Negroes on the University of Buffalo team to play.
Attendance in 1958 was 37,288 an increase of more than 400%
over 1955. The season was again a successful one in 1959 as Buffalo
won eight out of nine and was named runner-up for the Lambert Cup.
At the present time, it is clear that the University and its program
of intercollegiate football has attained national respectability without
carrying the stigma of the so-called “football factory.” Football has
been a rallying point for students and alumni, and has been a unifying
force within the University community. It has spurred interest in the
University of Buffalo Foundation, the fund-raising arm of the school.
This hard-won respectability and pride in the University football
team would wither and die if the intercollegiate sports program were
to be curtailed. A return to the days of 15 years ago, when Buffalo was
losing by scores of 45-0 and 62-32 is unthinkable. The intercollegiate
football program at this University must be given the means to flourish
and grow, or else it will expire.

problems

the radicals on this campus attempt to destroy this

In his other moods, Albany is the State University
Construction Fund
that hard-to-reach agency that finally
gave in to pressure fora construction moratorium in Buffalo,
then sold out, lifted the moratorium on thp basis of a bogus
‘agreement’ and left the controversy still boiling; or The
Albany Villain is the Central Administration of the State
whose heavy fatherly hand has beep most
noticeable here in the wake of the ‘Buffalo disturbances’; or
He is the legislature, whose two houses of ill-repute have
at the expense of
gone on a so-called ‘economy’ binge

across the state

are it) a definite minority on this campus, as proven
by the voting in last week’s referendum, yef they
shout the loudest, which, to the community around
us, means they represent you and me.
They damn sure don’t represent me. And l et
sure they don’t represent many of you. We cannot
let this happen again. We have to work continually as
a non-silent majority to prove that this University is
a community of students run with democratic
liberalism, not chaotic radicalism.
How? We must recognize that the radicals wield
a great deal of power on this campus by controlling a
principal form of news dissemination. The Spectrum.
They hope to employ the very form of
propagandizing that they condemn within the
“establishment.” We cannot and should not attempt
to squash The Spectrum as a radically-oriented paper
because we have no right to deny them the freedom
to express their views. But our views have the right
to be heard as well. We must concentrate our efforts
to form another paper on this campus, orje which we
can use to state our views with as much publicity as
The Spectrum receives.

If Linda Hanley plans on being at least the
editor of The Spectrum in name, she’d better grow
up and stop using over-used and unintelligent
statements as: Oh Boy, Sock it to ’em, and ... is
truth, Motherhood, apple pie and the American
flag.” She sounds like the writer for Roger Ramjet

her vocabulary limited but so is her creativity and
uniqueness. It appears that she thinks: “If I knock

Faculty to debate research proposal
Continuance of Department of Defense
contracted research at the State University of Buffalo
such as Project THEMIS
and university research in
general will be discussed at a meeting pf the Faculty
Senate Thursday.
The meeting, to be held in room 5, Acheson Hall at
p.m., will be a continuation of the emergency March
assemblage at Kleinhans Music Hall that produced no
'ncrete decisions on the research question.
That meeting was called by President Meyerson in
response to student demands that Department of

minated

Faculty Senate members will consider a resolution
introduced by David B. Straus, Faculty of Health
Sciences, that would require in part, that “all persons
jssociated with a research program be selected on the
basis of academic qualifications without preference to
the sponsoring agency.”
Resolution 2, as it is officially termed, was moved at
the last meeting and survived a motion that would have
se nt it back to committee. It is the only order of
business on the agenda and will be on the floor as the
meeting convenes.

New resolutions and/or amendments may be moved,
however, after the Straus Resolution is debated and
voted upon.

Open meetings

The meeting will be open to observers, according to
Faculty Senate Vice Chairman Thomas E. Connolly, as
voted at the March 26 assemblage.
Acheson 5 holds approximately 500 persons, raising
the possibility that students may not be able to witness
the proceedings first hand. Dr. Connolly explained that
an—“overflow—room”—equipped with closed circuit
television would be available for observers unable to find
a seat in room 5.
It “was the best room we could get at the time,”
explained Dr. Connolly.
Dr. Connolly told The Spectrum that Kleinhans,
which is able to accommodate a large number of
observers, is not presently available to the University,
due to alleged acts of vandalism March 26.
There was “burning and chewing gum damage to the
carpeting” in the balcony, according to Dr. Connolly.
“We were told we cannot go back to Kleinhans with
observers,” he explained.

The complete text of Resolution 2 follows
Be it resolved as the policy of the Faculty Senate of
State University of Buffalo that the University and its
faculty adhere to the following principles regarding the
acceptance of external support for research;
The association of a faculty member with a research
program must be by his own choice.

All personnel associated with the research program

should be selected on the basis of academic

All research results (including sponsorship) shall be
publishable, as determined by the faculty members
involved, in the open literature for the use of the public.
Be it further resolved that the Faculty Senate of
State University of Buffalo reaffirms its commitment to
current research contracts, and to future research
support which fulfills the foregoing principles.

Canada pushing for trade

Canada intendeds to develop stronger trade

This foreign policy line

United States stance on these two issues

Canadian Minister of External
Affairs Mitchell Sharp announced
at the NATO ministerial meeting
in Washington that Communist
China was ready to begin
negotiations on the question of
diplomatic recognition.
Mr. Sharp said that the
Canadian government contends
that “none of the big questions

regard for the Chinese quarter of
mankind."
Canada always has had full
diplomatic and trade relations
with Cuba since Fidel Castro came

enough in April 1949. With the
Russians having swept up chunks
of Eastern Europe, Berlin under
blockade, and Allied forces in
Western Europe reduced to
880.000 men. most people were
glad to crawl under the American
nuclear umbrella.
The Alliance, started in fear as
an expression of the American
commitment to Europe, has
served other purposes since.
It has covered the rearmament
of West Germany under
international control, and it has
allowed the smaller members to
enjoy
if that is the right word
a degree of physical military
protection they could not
conceivably afford for themselves.
More recently it has offered
those same members a limited

it as a workshop for long-term
planning for disarmament and an

These last two arguments

in

NATO’s justification belong to
the period just preceding the
invasion of Czechoslovakia, when
diplomats and
military
commanders were struggling to
combat the lassitude and
disillusionment spreading through
the Alliance. Peripheral countries
like Canada and Denmark were
beginning to ask just why they
need be tied to such an

in 19166, that this was too clumsy
a structure to serve France’s
interests or the common aim of
improving East-West relations.
The Supreme Allied
Commander in Europe, General
Lemnitzer, was facing cuts in
defence budgets and the
withdrawal of Allied troops
previously assigned to him, not
the stronger conventional forces
he continually demanded.
And then came the invasion of
Czechoslovakia. It did not matter
that NATO officials themselves
decided long before-hand that
there was no threat to the
Alliance.
Overnight the gradually rising
sense of security was swept away.
Europeans looked down and
realized that their military
uniform consisted of little more
than a borrowed pair of nuclear
boots. But the shock will not last
unless it is repeated.
If one approves of this military
alliance in the first place, there are
three main ways of reacting to the
uncertain pressures 1 have
outlined.
The first is to resist the process
of disintegration by assuming that
NATO will remain fundamentally
unchanged and attempting to
justify it along traditional lines.
The second is to convince
oneself that if necessary the

organization can serve entirely
new purposes without losing its
identity.
The third is the one currently
adopted by Britain. This is to
assume that NATO is going to
change whether we like it or not,
and try to anticipate its direction.
Mr. Healey, the Defense
Minister, far from playing down
European concern about

American intentions, has
harnessed this anxiety in the
search for a European “identity”
within the Alliance. He claimed
recently that the need for a
common European view was
self-evident on at least three
issues:

The

of NATO’s
strategy to put less realiance on
immediate nuclear escalation (this
change
was made
easier,
ironically, by France’s withdrawal
from the military side of the
Alliance);
revision

The current attempt through
Nuclear Planning Group to
produce some ostensibly workable
military guidelines that politicians
might use in deciding when to
nuclear
employ battlefield
weapons and
The prospect of bilateral
negotiations on strategic missiles
between the United States and the
Soviet Union, which would
concern Europeans without
involving them.
the

Mr. Healey argues that the
more seriously Europeans are seen
to take their own defense, the less
likely the Americans are to leave
them in the lurch. But, of course,
his policy has positive advantages
if they do leave Europeans in the
lurch, for example by laying the
groundwork for an independent
nuclear policy if necessary and
encouraging joint European arms

procurement, which would
particularly suit the European
aircraft industry in any case.
But perhaps there is a fourth,
rather more down-to-earth, way
of approaching NATO’s uncertain
future. That is to remember that
however the political
superstructure evolves, with or
without the United States, a
military organization that clescyly
unites West Germany wirb_

countries has its uses, and that it

�Columbia students resume rebellion
by Doric Klein
College Editor

Students at Columbia UniWrsity occupied a building Thursday
night to back up their demands'to the administration and evacuated it
at midnight after the courts issued a restraining order requiring them
to leave
That was the second takeover of a
building at Columbia in a week.
Monday, 15 members of the

Students’ Afro-American Society
had occupied the admissions

office of the university to back up
their demand for a separate
all-black admissions board to
evaluate black applicants. A court
order was issued and the students
left.
The students who took
Philosophy Hall Thursday were
almost all white and were led by
Students for a Democratic
Society. They had intended to
remain until the police came, but
200 filed out at midnight after the
order was issued. The injunction
will be made permanent April 29.
Meanwhile, it prohibits any

violation of existing campus
interim rules, which include
blocking doors or disrupting.
This week marks the
anniversary of last year’s massive
rebellion at Columbia, in protest
of the university’s expansion into
Morningside Heights and its
affiliation with the Institute for
Defense Analysis.
The administration currently
plans to build a gym on existing
university property. It officially
disaffiliated with IDA last year.
Support for the seizure of

could be measured
by last week’s rallies, which drew
several thousand supporters. At
the rally preceding the takeover,
members of SDS denounced the
administration’s response to the

earlier black action. A few
hundred then marched over to
seize the building, chanting “stop
racism!”

The students plan to have a
march of high school students on
campus Monday to demonstrate
for open admissions to Columbia,
and they themselves may take
another building.
Ironically, there has been no
white-black coordination in the
past week. The black students are
demanding a black admissions
board elected by black students to
be effective in September, and an
admission staff to handle funding.
Their takeover was intended to
prevent the sending out of letters
of acceptance to applicants.
Later in the week. President
Andrew Cordier, In answer to
demands from Students for a
Restructured University, came out
in favor of increases in black and
Puerto Rican admissions.
Cordier also noted that the
questions of NROTC and
recruiting were under study,
mentioning a federal law that
prohibits NASA
sponsored
research on campuses that deny

Several demands, all major
issues at Columbia, were put forth
by the group. They include an end
to Naval ROTC, an end to
military-related recruitment on
campus, an end to military-related
research,on campus, the opening
of 197 apartments owned by the
university to community residents
(who have been displaced by
Columbia’s expansion into
predominantly black and Puerto
Rican Morningside Heights), and
the discontinuation of university
expansion and “urban renewal” in
the area.
The students expressed support
for 21 Black Panthers who were
arrested in New York two weeks
ago and charged with conspiring
to bomb department stores. The
statement included a demand that
District Attorney Frank Hogan, a
Columbia trustee, stop the

forces.
A Navy spokesman concurred,
saying that congressional action
might be necessary to renegotiate
the contract. The University
Council, representing students and
faculty members, had
recommended the discontinuation
of ROTC as a credit program and
the demoting of its personnel
from professional rank. SDS and
SRU demand total abolition of
ROTC.
The Trustees will make the
final decision today.

Proposed urban affairs
A proposal to establish an
undergraduate program in urban
affairs has been fo-mulated by a
student-faculty committee
following approximately
one-year’s work.
The overall purpose of the
program is to provide students
with an educational experience
that will help them understand
and solve urban problems.
“There is a great need for this
program,’’ explained
undergraduate Tracy Cotlohe.
"Many students feel that ‘old
majors’ such as history or
sociology are not relevant to their

community

organizing.”

“The program is academic and
action oriented,” said Miss
Cottone. “It is a multi-disciplinary
major
no one is constrained to
look at one area of urban studies.
All different problems and
concerns are encompassed.”

Elaine Kolb believes that*, the
proposal is much broader than it
appears to be, “Its purpose,” she
explained, “is to bring together

facets from all seven faculties and
make the outcome identifiable.
We don’t want to become just
another department in the
University. It should be responsive
to both students and faculty.”
Selection of a program director
is significant because some feel
that this program should not be
created immediately. George
Randels, associate director of
Urban Affairs believes that
“students should be able to.select
the director to give the program
the impetus that they want.”
The curriculum will cut across
disciplinary boundaries and
probably emphasize activities
outside the classroom. Mr. Potter
explained: “A combination of
social sciences and technology has
to replace pure technology in
making new cities and
redeveloping the old. A city
cannot just be a work of art

Dance as

’

by Coryden Ireland

Spectrum Staff Reporter

According to Billie Kirpich. director of the University
Dance Workshop, the function of modern dancers is to
create “a form of theatrical reality on the stage."

Dance, as an art form, is older
than theater as we know it. And
as long as drama has existed.
dance, in some form or other, has
existed alongside of it. Yet it is a
fact that in the past drama has
resisted stylization more than
dance has, at least in the dramatic

context to wrench a laugh from

the same audience,
The problem with the comedy
0 f the first and the last parts of
this program was that there was
no rea i human comedy in either,
hut just attempts to be funny (or
cute) which is something different
entirely. Perhaps the focal
indication of these parts' failure
to be comic is the fact that both
of them had to resort to
personality and facial expression
for the smidgets of comedy that
were available, rather than rely on
the innately comic situation of
either skit.

antext.

With the entrance of moderh
Janee on the scene, the art of
movement in itself has evolved
into a viable dramatic experience,
reviving an art that was probably
lost with the ancients, or which
has remained dormant and out of
conventional art circles in the
camps and villages of folk
tradition. In a sense then, the
reviva 1 of primitivist,
expressionistic dance has
paralleled -the revival of the
modern world’s interest in
folklore.
The Third Annual Spring
Concert of the Dance as Theater,
directed by Miss Kirpich and
guested by members of the New
Dance Group of Canada and
Jaipcs Payton of Ohio State
University, was an attempt to
define dance as theater. The
success it was is still ringing down
the corridors of my memory.

that a great number of people can

magazine readers.

But perhaps the term “readers” is misleading,
for Eye’s mishmash of journalistic banalities call to
mind not a magazine as much as a slick TV special,
or more accurately, a hip Arthur Godfrey radio
program.
Above all, Eye’s world is a comfortable one; a
dream world where even the anguished cries of the
afflicted are embalmed with sympathy from the
“houst shrink,” Dr. Chuck.
Ftor a magazine which seems to pride itself on a
youthfyl perspective. Eye’s “Ouija Board” reportage
often assumes a tone which, coupled with the
editor’s disturbing habit of assuming that everyone
agrees, disarms criticism by leading the reader down
the proverberial garden path.
Recently, that department store delight, the
revolving door, was placed on the“Down Elevator,”
while the air curtain was elevated to idolatry. This
seemingly innocent move is only the latest even in
Eye’s campaign to abolish all external stimulae but
rock music and the light reflected from colorful mod
clothes.
Just as Playboy provides the average clotz an
“in” to the slick world of fast girls, cars and clothes,
so Eye provides aspiring Mr. Togethers with a womb
of succor decorated with beads, a comfortable
catalog of inanities, fads and pre-fabricated idols.
All this pablum is served up with an arty, total
involvement format evolved from TV and advertising
techniques, and which seems to serve two basic
functions: sell magazines and disguise.
The world of Eye is really nothing new. All the
ol:(l attitudes are there, but in different clothes. All
too often, the clothes majke the magazine.
A recent article on Yoga, for example,
transforms that noble art to something akin to an
isometric exercise course for girls. “Yoga fora figure
fantastic . , . ready for beach and boys” beckons the
cover blurb, in a typical amalgamation of Seventeen,
Back to God-Head, and Sunday Supplement.
The tragedy of Eye magazine is that it tries to
reach too many people with too many messages. In
the rush and fumble, it all comes out in the wash,
however. One message does emerge, but it should be
dismissed by the weak-kneed.

Hears! sends young editors to grow up; that Eye
attempts to manipulate him even more than Time
Magazine, then it’s all over for Eye.

The ideal Eye reader would be a spotless and
nattily dressed bowling pin, plugged into the
“Electric Last Minute,” loving all his friends there at
the alley’s end, confident that his makeup will not
smear if it rains, grooving to the sound of the
approaching sphere.
Eye’s muddled ambivalence tends to undermine
those articles which have substance, and helps the
numerous nonsense articles flourish. Recently there
has been a “Feeling Finder Quiz” (which tested
sensitivity on the basis of stock responses to
situations and pictures); a criticism of the Academy
Awards (in which pictures like “The Green Berets”
and “Boom” were given Oscars, and a put-down of
natural death (because it’s boring).

Which all goes to show that while floating in a
sea of pablum, one must occasionally pinch his arm
to make sure he’s still alive. “Ah, culture may soon
be everywhere,” sighs an Eye reporter, typically
missing the real problem: our culture IS everywhere.

Now, think of an eye. Perhaps like the one
depicted cleverly above each review. A dis-embodied
eyeball listening to a phonograph, placed before a
book, perched on a theater seat. An eye who’s.mind
is supposedly supplied by the reader; or is the
reader’s mind supplied by the magazine? And who’s
eye is whose?
By assuming a confiding, fatherly tone, Eye
magazine too often assumes responsibilities which it
should not have. Nevertheless, the letters to the
editor frequently include tomes from readers who’ve
been taken to the cleaners and liked it. Sighs one
convert; “Up is up, down is down; choose to believe
for
in one and you will be that one. Thanks
helping me face my own reality.”
But for me, methinks that when you toss the
hippy ethic, Madison Ave., Spiderman, SDS, Enovid,
the Beatles, Julie Nixon and Che Guevara into a
bubbling vat of a magazine, the miraculous result is
not a potion for all evils, but Burma Shave.

Two proposals that were approved were: Support for open admission for the youth
of working class and poor families (1029-945), and a fully integrated work force at the
Amherst campus (1662-368).
Students rejected a proposal that called for the
immediate establishment of a worker's college, 1032-948.
Voting was held Thursday and Friday in the Polity-sponsored referendum designed
to measure support for the demands submitted to President Meyerson by a large group of
students last month.

Deming’s gridders he pitches for the State University of
Buffalo baseball team.
Wednesday at Clark Field, Lang pitched for Buffalo
against Syracuse, and the Orangemen wound up wishing
Lang had stuck to football

Lang, hurling a masterful game,
Syracuse on four hits and
struck out 15 as the State
University of Buffalo beat the
Orangemen 5-2. “It’s good to
•win,’’ safti Lang after the game.
“I’m really happy.”
Actually, Lang gave up only
one really solid hit
a long home
run by Syracuse catcher Gary
Unger. “I got behind him in the
count, and I figured it had to
come in with the pitch,”
explained Lang. “Unger knew it
and waited for the pitch. He hit it
really well.”'

Other than Unger's 370-foot
home run over the right center

field fence, Lang completely
overpowered the Syracuse hitters.
“I threw fastballs mostly. I
wanted to throw my knuckleball,
but I didn’t get a chance.”
Lang also played a key hitting

role in the Bulls’ four-run third
inning that erased a 1-0 Syracuse
lead and paved the way for
Buffalo’s win.

After shortshop Jim Rusin and
Stan Odachowski opened the
Buffalo third inning with
consecutive singles, Lang strode to
the plate and lined a bullet into
right field.
Bob Clary, Syracuse's right
fielder, fell down and the ball
rolled to the fence. By the time
the ball was retrieved, two runs
had crossed the plate and Lang
was standing on third base. Steve
Nelson then followed with a
triple, driving in Lang and then
scored, himself, on a sacrifice fly.
Weird play
Buffalo added its fifth and
final run on a weird double play.
After Al Pennoni and Jim May
stroked consecutive singles, Paul
DiRosa hit a long drive down the
left field line that looked like a
pretty good bet to clear the fence.

But the ball died and hit the bale
Of the barrier.
Syracuse outfielder Steve
Maum picked up the ball and
threw it quickly into home plate.
Pennoni had managed to score
from second, but May was an easy
out at home.
In the meanwhile DiRosa, who
was somewhat surprised about the
whole state of affairs, was loping
towards third base. The Syracuse
catcher, noticing DiRosa was still
running, fired to the third
baseman and DiRosa was tagged

out.

“I was watching the Syracuse
outfielders before the game,”
commented Coach Bill Monkarsh.
‘‘Their outfielders didn’t seem to
have the real good throwing arms
out there. That’s why I was having
them take the extra base.”
Syracuse coach Andy Mogish
praised Lang’s pitching. “We lost
to a real good pitcher today. He
looked good.”
Mogish, whose team is now
1-3, felt that the Orangemen
“were a little tight.”
“We’ve only had two practices
since Easter,” said the Syracuse
a ways to
coach, “our team
go.”
The Bulls, with an official
record of 2-1, play a doubleheader
against Canisius Golden Griffins

It was obvious a few seconds
into the “Computer” dances that

the thumping and
drumming of the Baird Hall stage
were not going to be helpful at
all: and they weren’t. In some’rare
instances throughout the program
however, the foot-thunder
actually helped, since it made
whoever was good seem more
natural.
“Computer Generated,” I feel,
was just a warm-up for both the
audience and a number of the
dancers. I say this because all of
its attempts at innovation and
humor went unrecognized. It

struck me as very
competent. Visually and
technically (in terms of entrance
and exit) Mr. Payton provided the
highlights of this evening of
dance. But one wishes he were
more serious choreographically.
Mr. Payton, connected with
the dance department at Ohio
State, has been touring the
country with his dancer-wife
Susanna and recently received a
certificate of merit from the
National Broadcasting Media
Foundation for his educational
TV series, “An invitation to
Modern Dance.” He will be
associated with the State
University of New York system
next year at Brock port.
Another guest perforrnpr
invited by Miss Kirpich was Don
Himes, one of the founding
members of the New Dance
Group of Canada. He and five
other members of the company,
which is based in Toronto,
performed a serio-comic dance
entitled “Road Signs.” This was
the third of the three “middle”

and night life of today’s hip
people. The Canadian company
under the direction of Mr. himes,
who danced in the skit, displayed
incredible virtuousity in
choreography and mime. The
introduction of a forceful element
of mime is very important here,
since it adds still another
dimension to the concept of
dance as theater. Mr. Himes and
his company, in my opinion, are
both great interpretive actors as
well as accomplished dancers.
Appearing before “Road
Signs” on the program was a
simple and simply beautiful four
part love story, choreographed by
New Group’s James Austen: “Trio
(Waltzes).’’ Following the
emotional effects of the
variagated rhythms of Brahms, the
story of a man, danced by Mr.
Austan himself, and his lovers
unfolds as a beautifully reductive
drama, though it climaxes in a
happy scene at the end when all
three love one another. He is at
first in love with one woman, then
demures because of the other’s
entrance. He is enchanted by her
beauty, but she not so much by
his, for she soon leaves him. The
third part, with the soft whisper
and slow sadness of Brahms in the
background, focuses on the man’s
sadness on losing the second girl.
But as with all Brahms - and
perhaps all Austen - all is happy
at the end when the three figures,
the man and lovers are united
happily on stage in the sweep of a
final dance. At the very end the
lights close on their three figures,
seated close together in lotus
position and facing front.

Protesting tapes
As the lights faded on Mr.
Austen’s accomplished piece of
choreography and the audience
broke into applause, there was a
protesting “tweep!” from the
tapes left over from “Computer
Dance.” Perhaps it realized it had
been one-upped.
It should be added here that
the lighting and the musical
effects were perfectly
synchronized in “Waltzes,” while
there were problems along these
lines in both “Road Signs" (the
music was opo and too loud and
taken from the radio, so funny at
the wrong times) and “Computer
Dance,” where the tapes were
effective background, but where
the lighting was clear and hard
like the inside of a gym.

figure, nor were they inspired by a
root work of such dramatic
intensity.
in the play itself there
appeared no male on stage,
though Pepe, a local and very
available bachelor, was talked
about in the house. On stage, in
Miss Kirpich’s interpretation,
there was a male that danced in
the story. Yet he was enough of a

male stereotype and his
appearances were apparitional
enough, that his presence cannot
be called a strictly literal presence.
In fact, the only pressure that
can be said to be literal in “Dark
Shadows” is that of Bernarda. The
rest, regardless of how they
appeared in the original play, are
more shadows compared to the
terrifying figure of their mother
The most powerful summation
of the whole duality of the
feminine desires, as represented
by Bernada and her daughters,
comes at the very end of “Dark
Shadows,” when, as the male
spirit moves off stage they all turn
in their straight-backed chairs,
staring in his direction - and only
turning the other cheek at the
very moment the lights fade.
This Annual Concert of Dance
was the most complete dramatic
experience of the semester. It was
drama in movement: Modern
Dance.

A case of misplaced blame

Referendums: dangerous

One of the main changes introduced by the Polity was
the potential for subjecting all ‘legislation’ to referendums.
This makes referendums part of a student legislative process,
and supposedly immune to the administrative manipulation
of the past. The most recent referendum held by the
Student Association, however, suggests a return to the old
pattern. The results don’t change a damn thing.
Referendums on ‘positions’ are pure propaganda and are
nearly always subject to manipulation by someone else,
having no power to effect change. The Polity should get out
of the business of making ‘policy statements’ and direct
their energies toward effective action for radical change.

Refractions
by Rick Schwab

We agree, Miss Hanley, we agree! How dare the
American government think that international
airspace can be used by all people. After all.
everyone knows that North Korea owns the world.
We mean, gee, there goes our trip to Europe; we
might be blown out of the “Atlantic Ocean of the
people’s Republic of Korea” (North). There is no
question that if North Korea decided to accidently
bomb an american base in South Korea (by the way,
the planes there wouldn’t even be off the ground I it
would of course be the fault of the base for getting
in the way. It’s also ridiculous to think of blaming
the North Koreans for torturing the men of the
Pueblo. Surely it’s assumed that if these men hadn’t
been hanging around, they wouldn’t have been
tortured. So, it is all their fault.
Oh yeah! Concerning the morality of spying; we
all know that this world is so righteous that no one
else commits these “crimes” but the American
Government . . . don’t we? Only the American
Government didn’t murder the Soviets for
maneuvering off the coast of Carolina . . . did we?

STONY BROOK
Here we are in the SONY
like almost all State University
campuses. Stony Brook defies belief and logic.
-

Hinterland, and

It was Marcia Fit gibbons, State College at
Buffalo student president, who at a town meeting
told Gov. Rockefeller of the highly unusual and
disturbing coexisting conditions here, “It’s terrible,”
she said, “there are dustbowls and mudholes.

Stony Brook is bad planning all over. Grass
refuses to grow. And I mean grass, the stuff that’s
slippery when wet. All the trees were cut down to
make way for the campus; now the transplants have
lost their bid for roots in the Stony Brook soil.

What’s more, the architecture is as bad as the
agriculture. Archways connecting dormitories refuse
to meet, leaving gaping holes of sky visible. In the
partially completed Student Center, they’ve planned
for a theater directly over the bowling alley, and a
cafeteria for 200 with one (count .'em) door!

1 learned a grqgt deal h. here about where SB’s
at, and headed. Seems the president, John Toll, is a
committeeman; and not a committee decider, but a
committee creator. Dead-end “supercommittees”
are formed at the drop of a hat and are now so
greatly proliferated as to be each without worth.
Which is o.k., because no committee makes the
decisions anyway. Toll does.
Centralized administration with power in the
hands of a few is something Buffalo has been
moving away from. The trend here - actually it’s a
fact of life
is just the opposite. In fact, thing’s are
so centralized at Stony Brook, that Dr. Toll is the
only one with any authority to make any decisions.
Seems funny. State University of Buffalo has so
decision-makers (40 vice presidents?) the
decisions just overlap all possible truth. Think about
it: President Meyerson as a kind of Wizard of Oz his power distribution power is powerful
many

State University at Old Westbury was the
second stop. That is the State University’s new
experimental unit, with 83 students, all of whom
walk around asking the ‘larger’ questions. Old
Westbury wasn’t meant to be understood right
away. So I didn’t.

Some reasons for rebellion
To the editor
Before giving an account of two incidents which
took place on the West Side of this city, I would like
to preface my remarks by pointing out that the
significant concentration of students in this area
gives us considerable economic power.
1. 1 was recently shopping in the Loblaws
supermarket on Elmwood near Auburn when 1
noticed some table grapes. 1 queried the manager as
to their origin and he snarled: “California!”
2. Today I was seeking an apartment when I saw
a sign in Zahnd’s Swiss Bakery on Elmwood and
Cleveland which read “Apartment For Rent.” When
I entered the bakery to inquire about details, a
woman was summoned who responded: "T don’t
want to rent to you!” When I asked her why, she
said: “There are too many hippies (I have a full
beard) and the property values in the neighborhood
are going down.” I asked her for her name and she
refused to give it to me. She then said: “I would
rather have it empty than rent it to you!”
I cannot describe the rage which flooded my
entire being. I still maintain my non-violent
philosophy, wondering if 1 could do so if I had black
skin which cannot be removed as readily as a beard,
and if this had happened to me hundreds of times in
my life.
1 would assume that these people mentioned
above go to church and speak of brotherhood and
good will toward fellow man. They also probably
cannot see any reason for the rebellion of youth.

As recently as four years ago University administrators
here ran very much their own show, with faculty controlling
the departments, students controlling nothing, and with the
administration making all the decisions which were not the
sole Concerns of faculty. All significant decisions affecting
general University policy were made by the centralized local
administration. Most ‘communication’ between students and
their in loco daddies was through ‘recognized’ student
leaders or by the public announcement of an administrative
decree, usually passed on by a friendly ‘Dean.’
Whenever ‘unpopular’ student minorities would raise
issues which pressed for a change in the situation and in
more recent instances this ‘minority’ (labeled such by the
another
administration) was the elected Student Senate
means of one-way administration-to-student communication
was used: the referendum.
The referendum has been used historically here
primarily as an administrative propaganda tool. When it
became no longer possible to ignore pleas for ‘democracy’ a
facade was devised. Whenever token symbols of support
were needed for a potentially unpopular administrative
decision, ‘student referendums’ called by and written by the
administration proved highly effective. In many instances,
the ‘show of sentiment’ on simplistic yes/no questions about
complex issues (or vice versa) undercut any effective student
leadership emerging at the time. The Student Senate only
began to use referendums when they began to play the game
of ‘whose referendum do we choose?’ This later became
‘which referendum is which,’ and ‘what’s the difference
between the Student Senate and the Administration?’
Of course, times have changed. A new University
administration has made significant changes in the
administrative structure, decentralizing the Hayes Hall
hierarchy, giving faculty the power to make University
policy, and incorporating students into an expanded
committee structure. The Student Association has also been
drastically reorganized, forming into a town meeting type of
student politicking.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

Editor

All state construction projects in the Niagara Frontier,
including the proposed S650 million State University of
Buffalo campus in Amherst, will be re-evaluated as a result
of major wage increases in the local construction industry.
This raises the possibilities of
increased cost on the Amherst
campus and the stretching out of
the construction over a longer
period of time.
The only work that has been
undertaken in Amherst has been
“site preparation.” No actual
construction has begun.
Several area contractors and
unions have agreed to contracts
calling for wage increases of over
50% over the next three years.
On unions are still negotiating
on contracts that expire June I.
“The impact of such increases
•would make it necessary for the
state to reconsider its entire
capital construction program in
the Niagara Frontier area,” said
Gov. Rockefeller Tuesday in a
joint statement issued with Senate
Majority Leader Earl W. Brydges
(R.. Niagara Falls).

Surprise Announcement
University officials were not
notified of the announcement
before it was made. Since that
time they have been in contact
with Anthony Adinolfi, genera]
manager of the State Construction
Fund.
According to Peter F. Regan,
Executive Vice President, the
position of the University will be
‘‘to proceed as rapidly as we can
with construction.”
He said that increased labor
costs “will inflate the value of the
dollar,” and result in “less
construction
for total
expenditure.”

Dr. Regan also feels that the
planned rate of construction will
have to be slowed down. He
pointed out that the “total

cannot yet be determined.

don’t really think there is

indicating that wage negotiations
are out of the state’s hands.
“If anything, it without a
doubt means one thing: You buy
less with the dollars you have.”
Dr. A d i n ol fi told the
committee that he was asked by
the governor to “work on the
problem on behalf of the
state . . . and develop contracts
with an area-wide affirmative
action program.” He said his
agency has “taken the position
that no plan from Albany can be
imposed on an area.”

“Only those directly involved
can directly negotiate a solution
to the problem,” he said, adding
that the Construction Fund is
“willing to aid and abet all
parties
in ways like an

the
Rockefeller-Brydges statement is

He said the governor was using
the wage increase as a scapegoat
for costs involved in the program
of training blacks and Puerto
Ricans on the job at the Amherst
campus site.
Mr Woodward believes the
training program “would
undoubtedly raise costs

tremendously.”
“I think they’re trying to
blame it on something else now,”

he said.

The Coalition has not met “by
choice” with unions or employers
since the lifting of the
moratorium.
Mr. Dade would not discuss
plans to meet with the contractors
and unions. “We would
undermine our position (in
negotiations) if we announced a
possible meeting date,” he said.
The Minority Coalition's plans
“are far more expansive than just

developed by contractors. The
result is essentially the protection

Pressed on the point. Dr.
Adinolfi said that the
Construction Fund would not lift
a current moratorium on
contract-letting “until the three
parties say so.” He was referring
to the Building Trades Council,
the Construction Industry
Employees Assn, and the Minority
Coalition.

a “rough summary” is complete,
however.
Dr. Adinolfi called his agency's

has the “real leverage” and the
money and responsibility needed.

another University Committee

these points:

minorities, he said, “want to do

The Minority Coalition had
“little to do” with bringing about

“You were talking about doing

American Indian and Puerto
Rican communities and a collision
course seemed unavoidable
because it is necessary for some
group to speak for the black

“Robbed of stick”
The Minority Coalition had
just formed a Labor Committee
and a Negotiating Committee,
both chaired by Mr. Dade, when
the Construction Fund officers
arrived in Buffalo to talk about
lifting the moratorium.
“We took the position that we
were ready to negotiate,” related

Mr. Dade, and the “unions said
they would not negotiate until the
moratorium was lifted.” Dr.
Adinolfi, he said, termed the
willingness to talk “sufficient”
and announced the lifting of the
moratorium. According to Mr.
Dade, the Minority Coalition was
then opposed to the moratorium
lift and that the Coalition “felt
robbed of a stick.”
The Coalition has since asked
the Construction Fund to assist in
developing an identification
program, which SUCF has agreed
to.

Dr. Adinolfi, pulled back into

Shortly thereafter, BUILD

(UPI)
Israeli and Egyptian jet planes,
tanks and artillery battled across the Suez
Canal in the heaviest outbreak of fighting
there in weeks. Each side reported it had
shot down one of the other’s planes in a

dogfight.
The constantly accelerating series

of
border incidents between Israel and its
Arab neighbors came one day after King
Hussein of Jordan warned. "I believe there
is a very grave danger of an explosion in
the area.”
Israeli jets bombed and strafed the
Jordanian town of Karameh while troops
exchanged machine gun and artillery fire
across the Jordan river. There also was
shooting along the Suez Canal as there has
been for a week.
An Israeli spokesman in Jerusalem said
Israeli jet fighters scrambled into the skies
over the Suez Canal when Egyptian MIGs
tried to fly over the Israeli-occupied Suez

Canal. One of the MIGs was shot down and
crashed in Egyptian territory, the
spokesman said.
A military communique broadcast by
Cairo radio said one Egyptian plane was
forced to make an emergency landing
during the dogfight. It also said Egyptian
MIGs shot down an Israeli Mirage jet
fighter over the port city of Suez.

The Egyptians accused the Israelis of
attempting to penetrate Egyptian air space
in the regions of Suez and Port Said, at
opposite ends of the Suez Canal, and said
the Israelis began the artillery exchange in
the Port Tewfic and Suez areas. Israel said
the dogfight followed a light arms duel
across the canal which began when the
Egyptians opened tank and mortar fire in
the Port Tewfic area shortly after the serial

battle. It said Israeli gunners returned the
fire.

After a period of truce, the liberal vs

The question is whether the country
wants a cooling-off period, after years of
turmoil and social experiment, or wants to
resume its massive assault on poverty, the
ghettos and racial discrimination.
As of now the Nixon administration has
the advantage. It appears to have solid
majority support through the country for
continuing the Johnson legislation, cutting
back a few controversial programs but riot
abolishing them, and tightening
administration generally.
President Nixon also benefits from

are clear. The battleground will be the
amount of money available for domestic
programs; and the degree of-interest in
these programs which is indicated by that
amount of money.

■Subsidiary front’ sighted
A subsidiary front will be opened up by
the type of administration given to these
programs - the degree of enthusiasm with
which they are pressed and the liberal or
conservative attitudes of the men in charge.
Mr. Nixon is not prepared to cut major
sums quickly from either the Vietnam war

prepared

the cooling of inflation is his No. 1
priority

Therefore the scope of his domestic
program will be much less than massive.
This now is becoming apparent, and
various elements of the main Democratic
forces in Congress and of the new Left are
opening small-arms fire here and there.

The college campuses began to seethe
again, with Harvard in the limelight for the

first time.
A young black administrator from the
Johnson camp, Clifford L. Alexander Jr.,
resigned as chairman of the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission. He
was charged with “harassing industry" by
Senate Minority Leader Everett McKinley
Dirksen and in return accused the Nixon
administration with “crippling lack” ol
support in the fight against job
discrimination.
A tentative skirmish arose over the
Nixon order closing a number of Job Corps
centers and opening some new smaller
ones. Political columnists opened up on the
meager record of Congress thus far, and the
White House repeated that Presidential
messages would “begin to flow” to the hill
after the Easter recess.
A high official said the budget surplus,
largely for counterinflationary reasons,
could be as high as $5 billion, implying a
tighter-than-expected squeeze on existing
social programs.

the United States would keep its overall

Apathy plagues Polity in
first post-election meeting
by Sue Bachmann
News Editor

In theory, every university
student comprises the Polity, but
when the Polity convened
Tuesday in Haas Lounge only 50
students appeared.
This scarce representation can
hardly compare with the hundreds
of students who attended the
recent mass meetings to debate
the “demands” submitted after
the Buffalo Nine Trial. It seems
that as the novelty of the issued
has diminished, so have the faces
of the “apathetic majority.”
Clearly, the issues have not yet
been resolved: A referendum
conducted yesterday and today
will determine student support for
those who occupied Hayes Hall as
well as for their demands, while
civil proceedings are being enacted
against those who damaged
property at Hayes Hall and the
Project Themis site.

the Student Judiciary could have
effectively removed students from
the building.
Advocating the establishment
of a University-wide judiciary, Mr.
Slatkin added that a forum on
“Campus Justice” will be
conducted at 3 p.m, Monday in
Haas Lounge “to inform students
about the functions and
operations of the
Student
Judiciary.”

Currently, the five students

FSA lands
Another matter discussed at
the Polity meeting was what
should be done with the 511 acres
of land in Amherst which is
owned by the Faculty Student
Association. Dan Bentivogli, an
undergraduate student, proposed
that all the land be turned over
‘‘to the. black, Indian.
Puerto-Rican, Mexican-American
and poor white communities to
do with as they see fit.”
Because Sub-Board I pays
$12,000 in taxes for the land, a
student, Paul Dominick, proposed
that the Associations stop paying
the taxes which are financing the
bombs “used to exterminate the
freedom-fighters in- Vietnam who
are courageously combatting the
imperialism of the U.S.”

“Communiversity”
Student Association President
Bill Austin suggested that the land
“be traded for another parcel of
land in Amherst or the city of
Buffalo.” This land, he
maintained should be used for the
construction of a “communiversity” (a community and
University center), a low income
university-community housing
complex or any other project
chosen by the Associations.
“If we’re talking about student

Proposing that the April 15

million for 1969-70. Last year the
University received a spendable
budget of $54.5 million. During
the year, a growth rate occurred
and by the end of the year the
rate of spending was up to about
$57.8 million.
The figure that has come down

million. Which means simply that
the squeeze is on at least a $2.5
million squeeze.
The University Budget
Committee, under Executive Vice
President Peter F. Regan, looked
at the problem last month and
made two basic policy decisions:
That some institutional
priorities exist and funds should
be ‘taken off the top’ to save
them from the budget-slasher’s
axe. Among them: EP1S, the
colleges, the Centers and some
interdisciplinary programs.
That the remainder should be
allocated among the faculties so
that they might come up with
their own solutions and internal
adjustments. That process is under
way
now and
should be
completed within the next two
weeks.

The proposal would require
landlords wishing to rent family
units to a group of unrelated
individuals to obtain a permit.
The owners would have to fill out
an application stating the number
of tenants and submit to an
inspection. If regulations
regarding space, number of
occupants and safety were met,
the permit would be granted.
According to James Ryan,
director of off-campus housing,
“many householders in the city
have people over a barrel. There is
a .7% vacancy rate in Buffalo. The
average for a city this size should
be 3%. Some landlords are
packing students into rat traps
like sardines and making huge
profits.”

“The Buffalo papers,” he
continued, “have picked this up
and made the law seem slanted
toward students. This law is not
aimed at students but at landlords
who abuse them. It will aid
enforcement of existing laws
which are really too lenient
anyway.”

Rents may be higher
“Students are not the only
group affected by this law,”
according to John S. Macaluso,
head of Rehabilitation and

Conservation. “There are groups
of interns, nurses and working
girls living together in areas
scattered through the city. We’re
interested in their safety.”
“There have been abuses by
property owners. In some cases he
brings in more than the legal limit
of four tenants and then raises the
rent. He Converts the building into
a rooming house,” Mr. Macaluso
said.
Mr. Macaluso acknowledged
that enforcement of the limit on
four students per unit might
constrict the housing market
further and drive rents higher.
“That’s not our worry; we’re not
a rent control agency,” he said.
“What we’re concerned with is
their safety. Overcrowding can be
more dangerous than a bad
building. We’d rather have a
student living in a safe house in
Cheektowaga or Lancaster rather
than in an overcrowded one in
Buffalo. This law would make
location and inspection of these
houses much easier,” Mr,
Macaluso said.

A: Robert Graves, director of the Division of Scheduling and

do this again in the future. Instead, we had decided to have 20,000
copies of the schedule printed in a 9”x6” booklet. This would have

Q: Why is there a two-week circulation period for books in the
Health Sciences Library while other campus libraries have the semester

system?

A: Paul Zadner, circulation librarian stated; “In determining the

length and effectiveness of a specific loan period, a library must take
the following factors into consideration: (1) The size of the collection
or collections. (2) The degree of specialization. (3) Study and research
characteristics of the clientele involved in a specialization. (4) The size
of the student and faculty bodies it will be expected to serve within
the limits of its staff and book budget allocations.
“If one applies these four points to each of the unit libraries on
this campus, it quickly becomes apparent that a varied loan policy is
necessary to meet the needs peculiar to their patrons. It is through' past
experience that the library has arrived at its specific loan policy and it
is a flexible policy that is continually evaluated in the light of changes
in the demands of their clientele and the different materials to be

circulated.

“Applied to the Health Sciences Library specifically, there is a
demand for newly published books on medicine and
biochemistry and the two-week circulation limit is imposed to insure
greater and more equitable distribution of books.”

Q: Is it true that a student may have ten articles or 300 pages
reproduced daily without charge in the Health Sciences Library?
A: William Ernst Jr.., associate director, stated: “No, The Health
Sciences Library, as do all units of the libraries, charges $.05 per print
for photocopying library materials and $.10 per print for non-library
materials. Any library materials may be copied as long as there is no
violation of copyright. The Health Sciences Faculty makes funds
available to provide free photocopying of non-circulating materials to
faculty and graduate students. These are mainly periodicals and an
upper limit of 30 pages of one article and three articles at any one time
has been set.”

Q: How many guest tickets will each degree candidate receive for
commencement exercises?
A: No tickets are required for guests to attend commencement

Q: Can anything be done about the low level of maintenace in
Norton Hall? The doors and windows haven’t been washed in months.
A; Robert Henderson, business manager stated: “A building-wide
cleaning program was conducted during the spring vacation. With
limited manpower, emphasis was placed on meeting rooms and
lounges, with corridors and stairwells also receiving much needed
attention. Even with this cleaning, certain public areas such as the
main floor doors were not attended to adequately.
“The high level of activity in the building, and the number of
hours of operation in our University center, and the frequency of
reservations contribute to the maintenance problems in a building used
by 28,000 people per day according to recent traffic counts. Every
member of the maintenance staff in Norton Hall is anxious to have the
building serve the university, and also to be clean. I would welcome
suggestions concerning improved

maintenance.”

Stephen Lewis speaks tonight

Education cited as goal

of conference
A conference to discuss the

yet-unresolved tragedy of the

war

between Nigeria and secessionist
Biafra will feature noted speakers
representing both nations. All
colleges within two hours of the

University and approximately 150
area high schools have been

invited tb attend the activities to
be held today and Saturday in the
Fillmore Room, Norton Hall. -1
‘4Xhe purpose of this
conference is to educate people
concerning the conflict between
Biafra and Nigeria and then
through means of workshops at
the end of the conference to show
what the people can do for
Biafra,” explained Jeff Cohen of
the American Committee to Keep
Biafra Aiive, one of the
sponsoring organizations.

Commenting that “until now
there hasn’t been any concerted
effort” to inform people about
the crisis, Mr. Cohen indicated
that this conference would
provide the means for those
attending to organize groups

to

result in a “sustained publicity
drive.”

Airlift cited
Another goal is “to pressure

on

the government into having a
major airlift of food on the scale
of the Berlin airlift,” Mr. Cohen
explained. He also cited the
implementation of an arms
embargo to halt the sending of all
arms into both
countries, as
restoring
another means

towards

peace.

“The club room should have

He feels that a record player with

Miss Dick suggested planning
activities with other foreign

he asked.
Mr. Ryan feels that the law
limiting the number of individuals
was "not so rigid that it might
prove inflexible for properly
owners with larger buildings."
“I'm sure that if a landlord was
reasonable and the apartment
large and safe enough, that
housing authorities might lake
this into consideration,” Mr. Ryan
said.
“To ask me to make an

Mr. Tulurnello cited dealing
with city inspectors as the main
drawback to the proposed bill.

four or six students live in the

out for harassment by those
inspectors by applying for a

He told of an encounter with a
building inspector last September
during the attempted eviction of
six students from from one of his
apartments. The apartment, about
a block from campus, is well
furnished, comparable in price to
the student housing in Allenhurst,
and more spacious than those

closely the career of Boston’s Mrs.

have learned through experience
that you can’t believe all you read
and hear until you have studied
the situation yourself.”
Concerning the alleged
disapproval of such a plan by
black parents that she refers to in
her earlier statement, the report
showed that 91% of black parents
felt the bussing and integration
programs were educationally
sound, and 78% indicated they
wanted their children to continue
in these classes.

In the spring of 1963 the
school board was faced with a
decision concerning the districting
of Woodlawn Junior High School,
which had recently been built and
was awaiting occupancy in the fall
of 1964. The NAACP and other
Civil Rights organizations had
continually demanded that the
school be districted in a manner
that would allow for integration.
A petition was signed by over
1 2,000 whites opposing
integration measures, and at a
public meeting of the school

board many citizens voiced" their
opinions. Mrs. Slominski’s was
with them. “To sacrifice one child
on the alter of racial balance
would be a violation of my legal
and moral obligation,” she said.

Dr.

Joseph

the

superintendent of Buffalo schools
has been repeatedly attacked by
Mrs. Slominski. As one of her

close observers has noted, “she
hates him most of all.”

after the Woodlawn
controversy, to transfer students
from an overcrowded ghetto
school to a predominately white
school. The plan was adopted

negative.

‘Not opposed to bussing’
Her rejection to transferring
students from overcrowded
schools was brought up again
recently. This time she said: “I am
not opposed to bussing
1 have
no objection to bussing children
from an overcrowded school to a
school that has space available for
them.”
...

Concerning the topic of racial
balance and matters related to it,
Mrs. Slominski has said: “There is
no question that this particular
racial balance program, as it is
being advocated by the board, is
lowering the educational
standards.”

“It would have to if you
understand that when the children
are bussed you must balance every

Well, not that day, but shortly
thereafter, the Board of
Education did issue such a report.
The report I refer to is entitled "A

Effectiveness of Integration.”

The recent student uprising on

students involved as “an outside growth and the attitudes of the

There have been several charges who were involved. This is her
of police brutality levied against response to it:

Mixing children won’t help
At another time she said:
‘Rather than concerning ourselves
with dubious social theories, we
should seriously concern ourselves
with the improvement of
education in all schools
mixing children is not going to
help their education.”

The board’s report found that:
Black pupils integrated into
classes with white pupils make
greater gains in academic
achievement than do those
remaining in segregated schools.
White pupils do not suffer losses
in academic achievement as a
result of integration. Principals
and teachers in schools receiving
black pupils believe that the
integration programs have shown
positive educational results.
Mrs. Slominski has consistently
shown distrust with professional
educators. When her five-year
term on the School Board had
ended, she was asked what advice
she would give to a new board
member. She replied: “Do not
delegate policy-making authority

to the professional educators . .
be fully prepared for every board
meeting by reading information
thoroughly and not having blind
confidence in professional
educators.
Run for Council
Mayor Sedita refused to
reappoint her to another term on
the board. Consequently she
entered the June, 1966 primary as
an independent Republican and
went on to win a seat on Buffalo’s
Common Council. In her
campaign for councilman-at-large
she proved her tremendous
vote-getting ability.
Her time spent on the Council
is repetitious of her School Board
days. One of her main concerns
since joining the Council has been
to get the city to adopt a program
for an elected school board. The
proposed board would contain ten

members

elected

from

their

respective councilmonic districts.

The ratio of members would
probably be eight to two in favor
of the whites. The plan has been
criticized as one which would set
ethnic and racial groups against
each other.
The energy and enthusiasm
that Mrs. Slominski’s followers
have is a bit startling, and as was
said about the Hicks campaign:
“This isn’t only anti-Negro feeling
these are the poor, uneducated
people thumbing their noses at
affluent America.”

many issues brought her into the

in the school losing its state aid.
While the legislation requires
each school to set up its own
“battle plan” that includes
punishment for rioters, there is no
requirement in the proposal that
the penalties be carried out.
In a news conference earlier in
the week, Gov. Rockefeller
indicated he wanted to have all
the bills on his desk before he
took any action.
Rockefeller in the past has
hinted he may veto the bill taking
scholarship aid away from rioters,
while approving the less punitive
measure setting up regulations and
punishment for such disturbances.

ALBANY (DPI) The Senate
gave quick approval Wednesday to
a bill directing colleges and
universities in the state to set up
regulations and strict punishment
for dealing with campus riots.
The measure passed 52-3 and
was sent to Governor Rockefeller.
Earlier in the session, the
legislature passed a stiffer bill
requiring that all state scholarship
aid be taken away from students
convicted of arrests growing out
of campus demonstrations.
The milder bill requires that all
institutions of higher learning file
with the state rules governing not
only students, but faculty and
campus visitors who participate in
such disturbances. The rules must
spell out the penalties for such

�"A computer has no mind of its own. Its
‘brainpower’ comes from the people who
create the programs,” says Rod Campany.

(

Rod earned a B.S. in Math in 1966. Today,
he's an IBM Systems Programmer working on
a portion of Operating System/360, a
hierarchy of programs that allows a computer
to schedule and control most of its own
operations.

A mixture of science and art
"Programming” means writing the instructions that enable a computer to do its job.
Says Rod, "It’s a mixture of science and art,

You're a scientist in the sense that you have to
analyze problems in a completely logical way.
"But you don’t necessarily hunt for an ultimate right answer. There can be as many
solutions to a programming problem as
there are programmers. That’s where the art
comes in. Any given program may work, but
how well it works depends entirely on the
ingenuity of the programmer.”
Programmers hold a key position in the

8-1.
In the premier match, Buffalo’s
Harold Schnitzer routed State’s
Dave Hortman 6-3, 6-3. The
turning point of the match
occurred in the opening Set, with
Schnitzer trading 3-2. He held
service, then proceeded to break
Hortman’s and coast the
remainder of the contest.
, Schnitzer was not the only Bull
to have an easy time of it, Mark
Kofler shut out State’s Ernie
Marsten 6-0. 6-0, while Wayne
Silverman achieved victory by
way of default.
Three of the contests went the
full three sets. Buffalo’s Steve
Waxman emerged victorious over
Bob Booth 6-2, 4-6, 6-4. State’s
Ed Faya defeated the Bulls’ Mark
Newton 4-6, 8-6. 6-2. Buffalo’s
lohn Nyce edged Tom Sherman
&gt;-0. 6-8. 7-5.

"We made some mistakes, but
I’m very proud of how they came
back Those were the feelings of
baseball coach Bill Monkarsh after
the Bulls dropped a 7-5 decision
to cross-town rival Buffalo State.
The Bulls were coasting along
with a 3-0 lead for the first four
innings behind lefty Stan Jok
until State erupted for seven runs
in the fifth inning.
Buffalo scored single runs in
the second, third and fourth
innings. Going into the top of the
fifth, Jok had stopped State cold
allowing no runs or hits.
In the unlucky fifth, Jok
struck out the first batter, then
walked two j men with a hit
sandwichcd in between to load
the bases. With two out. State’s
Borschd grounded to third
baseman Paul DiRosa, whose
throw to second landed in right
field and two runs scored.
After Jok yielded two mon
walks to force in another run, hi

whs relieved by Tom Rectenwald.
Rectenwald’s second pitch to
State’s Davide was belted for a
triple and three more runs crossed
the plate. Davide subsequently
scored from third on a wild pitch.
The Bulls attempted a
comeback in the eighth,' scoring
two runs on a hit batter, an error
and three walks, but the rally fell
two runs short. Reliever Tom
Mahowski, who replaced State’s
starter Dan Quinn, ended the
threat by striking out Gary Dean
and throwing out Tom Finger.
Buffalo’s record now stands at
l-l following their return from
their southern tour. Overall,
including the exhibition games the
Bulls’ record is 5-10.
The Blue and White’s next start
will be Sunday when they host
Niagara Community College in a
doubleheader at I p.m.

announced that a new sorority, Zi
Omega, has been formed for
coming from

The

disadvantaged groups.
Zi Omega was formed by girls

from
who felt that dhe
lower income groups did not have
enough money or opportunity for
an adequate social life 1 at the
-

University,
“It was impossible for us to
join regular sororities because of
the money factor,” said Virginia
Polk, the sorority president, “so
we decided to form one of our
own . . . one we could all afford
to belong to.”
Zi Omega has had their
constitution approved by Dean
Sigglekow in February and now

awaits acceptance into the
Panhellenic Council. Before the
sorority can receive voting
privileges, it must go through a
year of probation. If at the end of
this year Zi Omega meets
Panhellenic regulations then the
sorority will become elligible for
acceptance this January.
Zi Omega plans to receive
money to continue its activities
from private businesses in Buffalo

Themis destruction here
and under the ocean

Themis and sought

.

.

To the editor:
.

Before we go stand on our heads and scream bloody
paranoia about the vandalism at the Themis site, let us
realize that this University participates in violence to a
degree not entirely inconsistent with and in many ways
supportive of the institutionalized violence of the society
at-large. Which should at least give us the perspective
necessary to avoid the tendencies of self-righteousness all-too
prevalent in the University. Before we condemn “violent”
acts directed against the property of the institution, let us
take time out to see if the possibility exists that that
property itself perpetrates violence.
This is not to say that any violence should go somehow
“unpunished." What it does imply is that all violence must
face its respective Judgment Day. The retribution sought for
the symbolic violence of the destruction of the Themis
construction sheds must not be disproportional to the
specific “damages.” Moreover, the violence must be
examined in its larger social context: what sort of
proportional retribution must be demanded for the
large-scale destructive violence being perpetrated by the
Defense Department?
The civil proceedings apparently planned as
“punishment” for the vandalism at the Themis site seem the
best way to proceed with a retribution plan. A civil suit
would involve light payment penalties, no jail sentences, no
potential conspiracy or ‘political’ prosecutions, no threat of
scholarship loss, etc. There are several crucial safequards
however, which we see as crucial to the maintenance of
fairness.
The student associations should provide legal counsel for
the student defendants, to safeguard against a hidden
additional penalty in the case. Further, in this case, any
campus judiciary action would be an unnecessary and unfair
case of double jeopardy, and should be avoided. The
President should discuss the ‘fact sheet’ with representative
students and faculty, as well as with the students named,
before submitting his report 1 to the State Attorney General.
There is an inherent danger in the fact that students are
more easily identifiable than non-students;
how
were the photographic identifications made? Are
photographic files kept on activist students, or are duplicate
ID card photographs kept on file? Last, but not least, the
Themis investigation must continue: Themis is under fire for
no small reason, and faculty and students must begin an
urgent campaign aimed at clarifying the implications of the
Themis project.
Statements by both the Navy and the Department of
Defense in regard to Themis and, more importantly in regard
to the planned deployment of military bases and equipment
under the oceans cast a dangerous shadow over the
supposedly innocent physiological research planned here.

Now that the Vietnam war has lost support in
nearly all circles and the Pueblo crew has been
released, it’s good to see that the “bomb’em back to
the stone age” boys have a new, fresh target. Equally
gratifying is the whole nature of this latest crisis
the downing of an American spy plane off North
Korea. Two-bit little country daring to raise a hand
to the mightiest nation in the world for the second
time in little over a year. The nerve of them
shooting down a harmless little spy plane that was
equipped with only six tons of electronic snooping
equipment and capable of not only listening in on
foreign signals, but jamming the missile radar used in

North Vietnam.
What an issue. In the words of Mendel Rivers
(D-S.C.) Chairman of the House Armed Services
Committee: “There can be only one answer for
America. Retaliate! Retaliate! Retaliate!” Oh boy!
Martha Raye hopping the first plane out to Seoul.
“Remember the EC-121” bumper stickers. General
Curtis LeMay brought out of mothballs. Maybe even
dare we even think of the glorious possibility
all-out nuclear war. “I don’t think nuclear weapons
should be needed to bring this crowd to its knees,
but if it requires that, let’em have it,” said Rivers.
—

Yes, sir. Sock it to ’em, Mendel. If the United
States captured a Soviet spy ship. I’m sure Mendel
; Rivers would agree that nuclear annihilation would
be our just desserts. Or maybe America is just in a
special class by herself. We are defending the world’s
freedom. You are stepping over your bounds. They
are vicious aggressors. Just like Radio Free Europe
tells The Truth, Radio Moscow is propaganda. But
that is another topic in itself. Back to national
security.
There

of sending
intelligence (i.e., spy)
missions, which would be just great. Eventually the
whole morally repugnant idea of spying could be
eliminated entirely to be replaced with a “hit first,
ask questions later" strategy.

Instead of snooping around the North Korean
shoreline, whammo! just bomb the whole shoreline
right off the map. Naturally spy planes are, in the
words of one official, a "potential embarrassment”
to the United States. So why make for potentially
embarrassing situations in the first place? After all,
it’s demoralizing for all the other little nations whose
freedom we’re also defending, to see us caught in the
act of violating someone else’s.

limited the academic rights ofothers.
More significantly, we believe that no research project

that has aroused the doubts and suspicions of a large pan of
the academic community can continue andretain its open
character. Already we read of the intention to provide
security guards for the site. Who is to be kept away ’ ItV
note that objections to this project are not idle and
capricious, even though they may be debatable. They are
sufficiently weighty that other institutions like ours hare
rejected the idea of participation. A review of this program
would therefore not foreshadow political examination of
individual faculty members' research projects. We explicitly
repudiate the latter suggestion.
We do believe that the regrettable military policies of
this country over the last six years have profoundly
alienated many, including some of us, from the idea of
co-operation, otherwise honorable, with a Defense
Department that both symbolizes and carries out those
policies. When they are changed, and if peace comes, more
pragmatic judgments may be possible. Until then we ask
you to use your good offices to bring Project Themis on this
campus to an end.

Those who sympathize with the opinions
expressed in this statement are urged to write to
President Meyerson accordingly. Our President needs
support for his position in favor of ending Defense
Department research on this campus .

Thank heavens there is still some decency left in
this University which has been too long dominated
by the hippie element. That courageous Mr. Bielan
has taken a giant step forward by banning the filth
that has permeated our once-respected University

Hooray for you, Mr. Bielan. And

We, the undersigned faculty members, students and
workers in the University community associated with the
health sciences, natural sciences and mathematics, request
that you initiate a review of this University’s contract with
ONR under Project Themis, with a view to terminating that
contract as soon as legally possible and transferring futufs
from other sources to support the basic research invoh cd.
We understand that such research would exclude the
specifically mission-oriented aspects of the project, such as
(a) studies of ways of constructing unusual habitats and of
practical adaptations of human life to such environments,
and
(b) the provision of advanced training to Armed Forces
officers, and of advisory assistance to the Department of
Defense. While reluclanct to advocate any step that might
even seem to infringe upon academic freedom, vie
respectfully submit that other questions are raised by the
present project.
The University has given permission and funds for the
necessary building, although previous requests from at least
one other department for expansion space for both reseat, h
and teaching in the area concerned were turned down A
choice has been made by the University, and continuously
reaffirmed while the contract remains unchallenged, against
supporting other health-related work and in favor of this
particular DoD project. Thus the Themis program has also

APR 16 1969

State University of New York at Buffalo

Wednesday, April 16, 1969

EVO’sgone... no
one knows why
The East Village Other, an underground
newspaper, is no longer available in the

University Bookstore in Norton Hall.
And nobody agrees on the reason.
Attempting to contact George Bielan,
general manager of the store, a reporter
was told at first that the "issue is closed"
and that the newspaper was no longer
being sold because it is “much too

pornographic.”
However, Mr.

Bielan more recently
discussed the matter and explained that the
newspaper wasn’t selling well and the space
was needed for faster selling items such as
The New York Times and Wall Street
Journal.
There is a conflicting story as to what
actually prompted the cancellation.
According to a bookstore clerk who wished
to remain anonymous, detective William
McClean, who is employed by the Buffalo
police force as night detective for the
bookstore, was leafing through an issue of
the East Village Other when he saw a
review for the Grove Press Erotic Art
Book. The clerk asserts that Mr. McClean
look the issue to the Buffalo Police
Station.

Reports denied
“Totally untrue” is what Mr. McClean
termed reports of the incident. He said that
he had seen and read the East Village Other
on several occasions. However, he claimed

that he had not taken any actions regarding
the paper.
The bookstore clerk further claims that
the following day two plainclothesmen
came to buy an issue of the East Village
Other. She said, however, that the
bookstore manager had heard of the
previous evening s incident, had switched
issues of the newspaper, and stashed the
remaining copies in his office.
Mr. Beilan denied having done this.
After purchasing the newspaper, the
men reportedly showed their police badges,
and asked the clerk for her name,
identification, address and the name of the
manager of the store.
Mr. McClean said he knew only of two
men from the District Attorney's office
who had come to the bookstore; however,
he did not know the reason.
Papers sent back
When distributors of the East Village
Other were called, they reported that three
shipments containing 30 copies each were
sent back to them starting March 7.
The clerk who observed the incident
said she “believes that because of the
incident with the Buffalo police we are no
longer selling the East Village Other.”
Mr. Bielan claims that “at no time was I
contacted by anyone representing the
Buffalo police in reference to the East
Village Other, and if there is a demand for
the paper, we will stock it.”

Themis probe to end in civil action
by Rick Schwab

Spectrum StaffReporter

The investigation into the destruction of
during the occupation of
Hayes Hall March 19-20 will probably
culminate in civil proceedings and action in
the student courts, administrative
spokesmen told The Spectrum Monday.
Robert B. Fleming, Faculty of Law and
Jurisprudence; James L. Magavern, recently
named assistant to President Meyerson, and
Done Friend, faculty advisor to the
president, talked to Spectrum editors
about some of the possible outcomes of
their investigation.
Prof. Fleming told The Spectrum last
week that “at least 20” students would be
named in the report that he and Mr.
Magavern will submit to the president
within a week. They were named by
President Meyerson to conduct the study.
It now appears that most of the
investigation and contemplated court
action center around recovering damages
for the Themis destruction, estimated
preliminarily at $2000.
There seems little possibility of criminal
action relating to alleged theft of property

Themis and theft

the lawyers emphasized
that criminal action would be initiated if
persons involved are identified.
The civil action against those involved in
the Themis destruction will be initiated by
the State Attorney
General’s Office in
conjunction with the contractor and the
State University Construction Fund, and
will be argued by the Attorney General’s

responsibility of the defendants for the

by

Half identified

The lawyers estimated that about SO
persons were involved in the actual
destruction, some of them high school
students and non-students. About half the
persons involved have been identified, they
said, adding that they probably would not
have proceeded if only a minority of those
involved could be identified.
According to the lawyers, they will
make judgements in their report as to the
reliability of witnesses (some have asked
not to be named), and will try to
substantiate the reliability of their reports.
But they emphasized that any ‘editing’
done would be geared to the rights of
individuals, and would not attempt to
single out persons by twisting the facts.
They admitted that a more thorough
investigation could be provided through
greater input, and welcomed official
student and faculty input; but said they
information.
As it stands now, their report will be
completed and turned over to the president
within a week. Just what will happen then
is speculation.
The president could turn over the report
to the Attorney General’s Office
immediately or attempt to further clarify
the “facts” through student-faculty
hearings.
The Attorney General could take action
immediately; sit on the report; conduct his
own investigation using the subpoena
power of his office to gather more
evidence; gain a preliminary hearing, or

court proceedings by calling
witnesses, perhaps adding more defendants
after hearing witnesses' testimony.
These are only some of the possibilities.
Mr. Fleming said he didn’t expect action
until September, noting the usual backlog
in the Attorney General Office.
President Meyerson could also decide to
take action in the Student Judiciary and
the Committee on Student Behavior
immediately. The Student Judiciary
which has original jurisdiction over
undergraduates
has the power to levy
fines, and to recommend suspension or
expulsion. It is an all-student group. The
Committee on Student Behavior has
original jurisdiction over all but
undergraduates, and has the power to
suspend or expel. It is a student-faculty
body. Undergraduates can appeal to the
Committee on Student Behavior, then to
the president. Other students can appeal
any decision to the president.
A remote possibility, but one to
consider, is that the local Grand Jury of
District Attorney’s Office could subpoena
the report now being completed, and begin
criminal proceedings against students and
others involved in the Themis incident.

found the Office of Student Affairs and
Service in the role of prosecutors before
the student courts. The lawyers stressed
that the proportions of this case, and the
fact that this is no longer considered a
function of the Office of Student Affairs is
reason for their involvement, especially
since many legal implications are involved.
The University administration, caught
between some who will charge any judicial
action unjustified and a growing “get tough
with students” feeling in the community
and the nation, seems to be attempting to
grasp the best of both worlds.
The restraining order obtained by Mr.
Meyerson March 20 was a step between
allowing the occupation to continue and
sending in the police for a bloody
confrontation such as Harvard witnessed
last week.
The investigation that has been
undertaken may prevent an enthusiastic
district attorney or grand jury from
conducting their own investigation
such
as Stony Brook has witnessed.
The civil court action rules out jail
sentences for participants in the
destruction of private property, but
attempts to recover monetary damages.

are “hard to get to.”
Professors Magavern and Fleming

In this case,; he is Bill Austin,
newly-elected president of the
Student Association.
Elected during the period of
campus’ turmoil, Mr. Austin
discussed the recent demands and
the tactics which students
employed to implement them.
“Although the majority of
students may have gone along
with at least some of the points
proposed, the seizure of Hayes
Hall did nothing to implement
them.”
“At 10;00 you condemn the

‘Community, we’re here’
According to Mr. Austin, we
have a $250,000 Student
Association budget next year. “If
we want our own little bookstores
and workers’ colleges, let’s set
them up. College ‘A’ is the
greatest thing to happen in a long
time,” he said.
“Build a center downtown.
Throw out a welcome mat. Shout
‘community we’re here!’ and see
what happens. Tell them what
you’ve got.
“If we’re going to have a Black
Studies Department, hold its
classes downtown in a black

Mr. Austin advocates the use of
different media to inform people
about activities on campus.

police.”

Capen not Hayes
“Philosophically, no one likes
to see the police on their campus.
Realistically, when you attack a
system you have to expect it to
fight back,” he explained.
Believing that change can be
implemented more effectively by
talking to the deans and the
faculty, he explained that therein
lies departmental power. “It
would be more effective to launch
a war against Capen Hall than
against the administration
building,” he said.

As an alternative, Mr. Austin
suggested doing research on

Black interests
With a quiet intensity Mr.
Austin explained that he would
like the University population to
do something physically tangible

i Reconciliation of his desire to
promote black welfare to the
majority’s interests, he admits,
may be difficult. Will he be able
to juggle the influences and
interests of a minority group
safely into the mainstream of
Student
Association affairs
without having the building
blocks come crashing down on his
head? A prominent example Mr.
Austin himself gave is the decision
of whether to concentrate on
academic reform or on an open
admissions policy
the latter, of
course, favorably leaning toward
groups of minority stature.
-

20 years in a ghetto
Reacting vehemently to the
phrase ‘the search for the black
man’s identity’ Mr. Austin said: “I
lived 20 years in a ghetto. 1 don’t
have to search for an identity

about changing the identity, or
giving the existing one another

Mr. Austin suggested that if
Black America finds it necessary
to build an identity they should
use the African culture as the
foundation, without attempting
to copy
it. He explained:

Austin said: “If we stop
Themis, we should stop all
scientific research on campus.”
Yet, he continued, “all research,
when it becomes obviously
militarily geared” should be
removed. The conflict resides in
determining when a project
crosses the borderline.
Aside from the inherited
headaches, Mr. Austin discussed
various things he’d like to see
materialize. They range from the
formation of permanent political
parties that endure after each
student association election to the
hiring of a student association
architect to see that the buildings
being constructed on the Amherst
site are ones the students want.
For example, he suggested a
student union with an adequate
auditorium.

intention to resign in September as director of the Black

become Columbia's first tenured black historian, is such
a non-entity. He realizes his importance but is not

The Trinidad-born and foreign-educated professor

under the various departments urging hiring of black

observed

He is. however, quick to point to changes in attitude
since September of both the administration and black
students themselves. The University is currently “trying
to be responsive to the needs of blacks,” he said. In
addition, black students who had shown “ambivalence”
towards such a program at the outset, were now meeting
regularly and receptive to the idea of a Black Studies
ProgramDr. Lynch made his disappointments known, and
was soon offered a number of positions at other
universities. When approached by Columbia, he
accepted, noting New York’s superior research and
Ifcrary facilities. Columbia is “the place where I can
attract good black students.” he added. “I can also
operate much more efficiently from New York."
At Columbia Professor Lynch plans to devote more
time to

informally and through teaching assignments, while
advising the Afro-American Studies Program.

Dr. Lynch was adamant: “I feel that it is very very

continued: “It is important for every group to know its

the African, Dr. Lynch observed: “One can be a good

Goldfarb: moratorium due to
community effort, not students
Norman Goldfarb of the
Citizens Council on Human
Relations has sent a letter to
government, university and labor
leaders stressing the facts that call
for a moratorium on State
University construction “were
merely a local matter, but a
question of the state taking
actionacrossmade prior to the
student seizure of Hayes Hall.”
The letter was intended to
point out the role of community
organizations in efforts to provide
increased job opportunities for
minority group workers in the
construction industry.
“Press stories have somehow
turned the continuing struggle,”
says the latter, “into solely a State
University student enterprise.”
Outlining the work of local

civil rights groups, Mr. Goldfarb
calls employment efforts “a
community enterprise.”
He says “there is a strong and
dedicated movement by the
community at large," a movement
that “began a long time ago.”
The letter also distinguishes
between “responsible students in

He contends, however, that the
lifting of the moratorium by
Anthony Adinolfi, general
manager of the State Construction
Fund, “repudiated the governor’s

�Senate to discuss moratorium
“Whether or not the Faculty
Senate Executive Committee will
oppose the lifting of the
Moratorium” will be the basis of
discussion at a meeting today,
according to Thomas E. Connolly,
chairman of that committee.
The agenda provides for
“consideration of a resolution
regarding a position in the matter
of the moratorium" which was
called on construction at Amherst
then lifted by Anthony Adinolfi,
head of the State University
construction fund Professors
Jacob Hyman and Marvin Bloom
and vice presidents Peter Regan
and Robert Ketter have been
asked to attend and present
information on this matter to the
committee

Another controversial issue to
be discussed is the arming of
campus security officers. The ad
hoc committee which was formed
to investigate the matter will

present its report to the Executive
Committee. Dr. Connolly said
that the question being raised at
the present time was not whether
the security officers should be
armed, but whether the. present
security force should be increased.
Explaining that there is no
police protection at the Amherst

site

that there have been

and

reported incidents of robbery in
the 40 buildings on that campus,
he said it was uncertain whether
the campus security should be
expanded to cover the Amherst
area or whether city police should
be called in to protect the
buildings,

The campus security force now
consists of 27 men
Also on the agenda lor the
meeting is the question of a "mail
ballot" for members of the

Faculty Senate. Such a provision
would enable them to mail in a
vote on any issue being voted by

that organization.
Dr. Cortnolly commented on
this saying it “defeats the purpose
of a deliberate assembly” and that
he is “against” any such ruling.

~l1^

An Academic Freedom
Committee, proposed by

President Meyerson, is also to be
debated by the committee
members. Its purpose as a
standing committee would be to
investigate any cases where the
rights of an individual faculty
member had been infringed.

Cold war goes to sea
reprinted from Guardian

Behind the recent U.S.
rejection of a Soviet offer of a
treaty to ban nuclear weapons and
all other military installations
from ocean seabed is a Pentagon
plan to stake out the ocean floor
for military purposes.
Washington’s delegation to the
18-nation disarmament talks in
Geneva announced
U.S.
opposition to this proposal March

25.
Gerard C. Smith, chief U.S.
negotiator and director of the
Arms Control and Disarmament
Agency, rejected the Soviet draft
as “simply unworkable and
probably harmful.” The U.S.
Smith said, was definitely “not
interested” in any proposal to
demilitarize the seabed entirely,
though it did want to ban nuclear

weapons from the seabed.
United Nations officials
bitterly (and privately) attacked
the U.S. rejection. They blame the
U.S. attitude on a Pentagon
decision to assign the world's
seabeds a major role in the cold
war military strategy. U.S.
officials deny it.
The 18-nation Geneva talks
had placed a draft treaty on the
seabeds at the top of its agenda
because recent breakthroughs in
undersea weapons technology
threatened an extension and
escalation of the arms race into
the hitherto inaccessible world
beneath the oceans. Of the major
world powers, the U.S. clearly is
the frontrunner in undersea
technology. A recent report of the
President’s Science Advisory
Council revealed that the U.S. has
been spending “billions" each
year in this field.

Military seabeds
The Soviet draft treaty,
presented by Alexei A. Roshehin,
their ambassador in Geneva, called
for a ban on the use of seabeds
outside the 12-mile territorial
boundary for any “military
purpose,” The definition of
“military purpose” was broad. It
included “to place on the seabed

objects with nuclear weapons, or
any other types of weapons of
mass destruction, to set up

bases, structures,
installations, fortifications and
other objects of a military
nature.”
The USSR also proposed that
“all installations and structures on
the seabed shall be open on the
basis of reciprocity for
representatives of other states
parties to this treaty, for the
purpose of verification.” This
offer of unlimited inspection
came as a surprise, since the USSR
has resisted open inspection in
arms control consistently. This
makes U.S. rejection of the treaty
more embarrassing and suspect.
Speaking to a press conference
just hours after Roshchin
presented the draft treaty to the
Geneva conference. Gerard Smith
explained its rejection. “It would
be very difficult to reach an
agreement on the basis of that
sort of
language (i.e.
comprehensive coverage). 1 don’t
detect any interest on the part of
the United States government to
make an arrangement which
complete
would
be
a
demilitarization of the ocean
floor.”
In answer to a reporter’s query.
Smith was more specific. “I am
inclined,” Smith said, “to doubt
that we would have very much
interest in a treaty which would
completely eliminate the
possibility of any military use of
the seabed.”
military

nuclear weapons, according to the
Navy, are not needed since its
Polaris nuclear-armed submarines
are considered superior. Neither
the Soviet nor the U.S. treaty
drafts would bar nuclear-armed
submarines.

Non-nuclear

military

installations in the seabeds have a
top priority in the Pentagon’s
plans. Navigational aids and sonic
devices for the Polaris fleet have
already been installed on the
ocean floor thousands of miles
from the U.S. coastline. Aviation
Week and Space Technology, the
aerospace version of Time
magazine, has hinted that tracking
and targeting devices for U.S.
intercontinental ballistic missiles
also have been constructed in the
seabeds. Other sources rumor that
emergency equipment storehouses
and repair facilities for the Polaris
fleet have been built into the
seabeds or are about to be.
In short, though the U.S.
would bar nuclear weapons from
the seabed, it plans to construct
military installations on the ocean
floor that are vital components of
nuclear weapon systems.

Sea-hawks admirals

The Pentagon, and particularly
the sea-hawk admirals in the
Office of Naval Research, predict
a far more important role than
navigational assistance for the
seabeds in future U.S. nuclear
strategy. The Navy hopes the
billions invested by the U.S. in
oceanography will open up a
first-strike capability against the
Soviet nuclear-armed submarines
U.S. reluctance
stationed off U.S. shores.
The U.S. does support a treaty
The importance of this mission
to ban nuclear weapons only from can be measured by the “several
the seabed. President Nixon said billion” dollars a year the ASW
in a letter to the Geneva (anti-submarine warfare) program
conference that ”... the United gets as its share of the defense
States is interested in working out budget. The program goes under
an international agreement that the general title of Deep Ocean
would prohibit the emplacement Technology (DOT). According to
or fixing of nuclear weapons or Dr. Robert A. Frosch, Assistant
other weapons of mass Secretary of the Navy for
destruction from the seabed.”
Research and Development,
The U.S. reluctance to support DOT’s job is to “enhance our
total demilitarization of the capabilities in ASW, strategic
seabed is based on the Pentagon’s deference and deep submergence
military plans. Seabed based systems.”

Buffalo THEMIS’ research
value was described publicly by
Navy officials during March 1968.
One of the Project THEMIS
proposals assigned to the
cognizance of the ONR by D.D.R.
A E. is located at the Department
of Physiology, School of Medicine
and Dentistry, Slate University of
Buffalo. The objective of this
THEMIS project is to increase our
knowledge and understanding of
the physiological responses of
man

to

unusually

stressful

be
encountered during the
performance of man’s national
defense-related duties. (II. p. 323)
The specific military applications
and relevance of Buffalo’s
THEMIS project were described in
the following terms. Admiral
Owen: I will mention a project
the' the State University of
Buffalo is doing, entitled
"Environmental Physiology. This
will involve a study related to our
discussion of yesterday in which
we talked about the need for
increased knowledge about the
performance of man in the sea to
meet Navy needs. In particular,
the University hopes to or is
conducting studies on conditions
in free swimming, sealed
environments, a related program
of study of environmental
atmospheres under the water. (II.
p. 323) What we are moving
toward is the capability for the

operations, mining, anti-mining,
capability

divers

surveillance, reconnaissance, and
course, in the civilian side of
things for exploitation for mining,
geological reconnaissance, and so
on. In fact, it opens the whole
Continental Shelf. Dr. Frosch: We
have been developing this kind of
diving specifically because we
have military problems that can
be solved with it. We do now use
divers to do reconnaissance of
coasts, to hunt mines, to destroy
mines, and very importantly to
work in salvage operations. We
also use them in building
underwater installations very
extensively and in assisting
operations from the surface in
doing things that we need to do
for military installations under
water. As we have greater
capabilities, whether civilian or
military to go deeper into the
ocean, we believe the Navy's
military
missions will
automatically be capable of an
will have to extend to deeper
depths, and so we need to develop
a military capability to do all of
these things in any case. (II. pp.

of

246-47)
Like all THEMIS contracts, the
Buffalo project may be classified
at the descretion of the Pentagon.
The contract contains this clause:
“The Government shall notify the

of the security
classification of this contract and
the elements thereof, and of any
subsequent revisions of such
security classification of this
contract and the elements thereof
and of any subsequent revisions of
Contractor

such security classification, by the

use of q Security Requirements
Check List (DD Form 254) ...”
(clause 12b) "In the event a
change in security requirements,
as provided in paragraphs (h) and
(c) results (i) in a change in the
security classification of this
contract or any element thereof
from a nonclassified status to a
I he
classified status
Contractor will exert every

reasonable effort compatible with
his established policies to
continue the performance of the
work under the contract in
compliance with such change in
security

classification

or

requirements."(clause I2e)

At this point the University
may decline the new security
classification, and if “a mutually
satisfactory method” (clause 12f)
is not agreed upon the University
may cancel the entire contract,
(clause 12g) What is a certain fact,
however, is that the Pentagon can
classify THEMIS at any time it so
chooses.

under the direction of Billie

Kirpich, together with a number
of guest artists, will present a

program which will include three
major works created especially for
the concert.
A whimsical feature called
‘Olio in Nine Acts” will be
performed by the dance workshop
and guest artist James Payton,
who

created the piece for the

occasion. Characterized as a “kind

of terpsichorean nostalgia about
the realities’and illusions of daily
life,” the dance is set to music by
Stravinsky and performed by a
cast of ten dancers.
Mr. Payton, a graduate of
Bennington College and the
Juliiard Schools of Dance, has
performed with the modern dance
companies of Jose Limon, Anna
Sokolow and Doris Humphrey in
New York. He has choreographed
for the Ohio State University
dance company, where he is
presently a member of the
faculty.

The second major new work on
the program was created by Don
Mimes, a founding member of the
New Dance Group of Canada. He
and five other members of the
Toronto-based company will
perform “Road Signs” in this,
their second appearance at a

Theater review

'The School
by Joseph Fembacher
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

In keeping up with its current
policy of bringing into Buffalo
plays that neither tax the mind
nor call upon the audience to
observe the hidden talents that
most “modern" plays possess,
Buffalo’s Studio Arena is
currently presenting Moliere’s
laugh riot, “The School For
Wives.”
It is a play so obviously dated
that to present it to an audience
in this day and age must have
taken a lot of guts. Simply, it is
perhaps the most nauseating piece
of pseudo-dramatic art that I have
seen in my entire life.
The powers who chose this
“play” should have their heads
examined for putting on such a
theatrical mockery.
This present production even
falls short of mediocrity. In the
entire play there is perhaps one
line that provokes a meaningful
laugh and that is successful due
only to the comedic skill of the
leading actor, Harris Yulin.
Speaking of acting, even at its
peak the acting in this play is
lukewarm. A nod of the head
might go to Harris Yulin who
played the role of Arnolphe, a
dirty old man in the tradition of
W. C. Fields and Arte Johnson of
"Laugh-In.” Yulin must have had
fun developing his role as a horny
old man.
Playing the dumb horny young
woman with a certain amount of
unsophisticated finesse is Diana
Davila, as Agnes. Her role is a
combination of the dumb blond
(though she is dark haired) and
Charlotte Corday of Marat-Sade.
She seems to be enjoying herself

�Baumgarten on sports

Winning’s the thing
by Rich Baumgarten

Once upon a time there was a professional hockey coach. For ten
straight years, his teams almost always won. But in his I Ith year, the
hockey coach lost in the Stanley Cup playoffs. The hockey coach was

fired.
This isn’t a make-believe story. It’s true.
George “Punch” Imlach had been the coach of the National
Hockey Leagues’ Toronto Maple Leaf ice team since the 1959 season.
His teams had won the Stanley Cup, emblematic of NHL supremacy,
from 1962-1964 and invariably the Leafs made the post-season
playoffs. Why then was Imlach fired?
Well, Mr. Imlach’s Leafs had the unenviable task of playing the
Boston Bruins in the Stanley Cup quarterfinals. The Bruins trounced
winning by such scores as 10-0 and
the Leafs in four straight games
__
7-0.
Deeply concerned, the Leaf’s front office took a quick vote, and
decided that Imlach was to blame and therefore should be fired.
This unfortunate story of Mr. Punch Imlach, ex-coach of the
Toronto Maple Leafs, points out axiom number one in professional
sports: “You’ve got to produce to keep your job.”
It’s sad, but true. The moment a professional player or coach can
and obsolescence
no longer help the club to win, he is obsolete
means unemployed.

The records in professional sports are just chock full of names of
players who made their contributions to their teams and then were
replaced by others who could do the job better.
Roger Maris, remember him? He’s the guy who hit all those home
runs for the New York Yankees and then was traded for some guy
named Smith.
And Elston Howard, another Yankee veteran who was traded
away at the age of 37 for two unknown rookies.
Does the name Ernie Warlick mean anything to you? Well old
“Ern” was a tight end with the Buffalo Bills football team for almost
five years. Ernie was 33-years old and only three games away from
qualifying for the pension plan when he was but by the Bills.
Warlick never did gel those three games in, despite the fact that
the Bills carried only 39 men on the roster for several games and there
was room for one more player.
Before you condemn professional sports for any lack of
compassion, you’ve got to remember one thing. Professional sports
means you've got to beat the other guy to make the money. Past
performances don't count. You’ve got to win today.
In professional sports winning isn’t an important part of the game.
It is the game.

Bulls edge Colgate
with single in 13th
Jimmy Rusin’s clutch single
with two outs in the bottom half
of the 13th inning scored the
winning run as Buffalo edged
Colgate 4-3 Sunday for their sixth
win of the season.
After relieving Stan Jok in the
seventh, Roger Nelson went on to
pitch seven innings of scoreless
ball for the win. Colgate’s Hank
Huntington, who took over the
mound chores for Bob Sudmeyer
in the 11 th, was the loser.
The Bulls drew first blood in
the fifth when Gary Dean led off
the inning with a walk and Jim
Rusin laid down a perfect bunt
which the pitcher couldn’t handle.
After Stan Odachowski’s sacrifice,
Stan Jok hit a sharp grounder to
the first baseman that allowed
Dean to score from third. Al
Pannoni followed with a single to
left for another run.
Colgate tied it up in the sixth
on a walk and back to back

doubles by Jeff Smith and Steve
Goepel.

Buffalo regained the lead in
their half of the inning when Dean
walked and Rusin slammed a line
drive single which handcuffed the
center fielder. Dean scored easily
and Rusin went to third.
Colgate managed to tie it up
again in the seventh when Ed
Rouh walked, advanced on an
error and scored on Chris
Fischer’s single.
The game remained deadlocked
until the 13th when pinch hitter
Bob Stiscak walked and went to
second on Jim May’s sacrifice
bunt. Huntington decided to
intentionally walk Don Jok and
managed to get Dean of strikes,
but his strategy backfired as Rusin
stepped up and delivered his game
winning blow.
The Bulls go into action again
this afternoon when they host

Moratorium hoax
The long-sought-after State University construction
moratorium proved to be a hollow ‘victory’ indeed for
groups struggling for a fully integrated work force at the
University’s Amherst construction site.
It was lifted after one week, supposedly because
representatives of the groups involved had reached a
satisfactory agreement about the issue. About the only thing
the State, the unions and the community agreed upon was
the desirability of the goal. As yet, procedures remain
unclear, promises empty. As Norman Goldfarb said: the
lifting of the moratorium on State University construction in
Buffalo clearly “repudiated the Governor’s pledge.”
Construction continues, yet no official declaration has
been issued by the State saying that a hiring mechanism and
construction school will be created.
We fully endorse BUILD’s call for an injunction on all “Fellow Homo Sapiens! As we near the successful

It seems the request foil the guarantee of fundamental
human rights is no easy task. We find that the mobilization
of strong community and University sentiment in support of
an open work force is a task which of necessity is just

‘Light my Fire’
The University has discovered what happens when a
distinguished scholar is hired to “light fires” of inspiration in
other departments, while not being given the funds to start
his own.

Tokenism finally yielded to involvement; but by the
time Hollis Lynch found himself at the head of a fetal Black
Studies program here, he had already committed himself
elsewhere.
We hope this University, strengthened in coining years
by increasingly large numbers of black students, does not
present them with a Black Studies brainchild that is
stillborn.

SCATE
A central topic raised in recent discussions about grades
and faculty tenure has been the subject of teacher
evaluation.
Teachers who admit they use students' grades to judge
their own teaching ability, or who dismiss the question of
teaching ability entirely from departmental tenure
considerations because of its alleged immeasurability,
certainly emphasize the crucial need for a rigorous method
of teacher evaluation by those who know best, the students.
The Student Course and Teacher Hvalution begins its
second year
after a history of revelations, inconsistencies,
triumphs and headaches
revealing considerable growth in
maturity and importance. This week's questions have been
completely revised; they deserve careful consideration by all
students and faculty, if we are to finally begin to stimulate
the widespread individual and institutional reevaluation
crucial to the future of the University,

"Have you a match?” inquired the svelte blonde
standing by the condor cage.
"No, 1 use a lighter" responded the Mysterious
Stranger
"Better still.”
"Only if it works.”
A latter-day James Bond? Tondolco Lubitsch
bent upon cruel revenge? I’m sorry to report that the
incident was no more sinister than a casual
encounter at the Buffalo Zoo. I’ve finally run out of
great issues to address myself to, and I think that it’s
time to look at the other side of life.
Sunday afternoon was a pure blessing and relief.
Delaware Park was crowded with lovers, families,
friends, pickpockets and lechers, not necessarily in
that order. On the parade ground a group of normal
looking kids were flying an enormous kite. This
particular kite was a bit different, though. On both
sides were painted a huge Maltese cross (like the
Nazis used to use) and some undeciferable lettering.
It warms my heart to see that the Luftwaffe is not
really dead after all these years. Its memory lives on
in the minds of Buffalo youth. Perhaps I’m being a
bit presumptuous in assuming that neo-Nazis were
behind the kite flying. After all, our loyal friends
and allies the West Germans still use the Maltese
cross. Maybe it was a NATO training exercise. We’ll
really never know.
The svelte blonde of the first paragraph
accepted the light from me (the Mysterious Stranger)
and went back to arguing with her male companion
(or lover or husband) in a highly vocal manner. Her
escort was shouting many things at her but the only
item that I caught was, “You have a face that would
stop a clock!” This peculiar bit of innuendo
immediately propelled me into uncontrollable
laughter. I must have embarrassed everyone in the
zoo but I continued to roll until tears began to
stream down my face. I don’t know why I laughed
so hard but I’m certain that the miserable events of
the past year must have had something to do with it.
In any ease, I left the scene half ashamed and half

Republication

Editorial policy is determined by the Editer-in-Chief

It’s clear enough that a pair of law school
are gathering information about the
Themis tear-down, and that they will in the very
near future be submitting to President Meyerson a
report of their investigations. But what is by no
means clear is the use to which this document
(which, as one of the professors says, “will name
names”) will be put. Nor, for that matter, is it clear
to what uses it will not be put.
I think it incumbent upon the president to clear
things up here, and I respectfully call upon him to
do so. Some sample questions, which I feel our
community has the right to have answered, might
include the following: Who will see this document?
Will it be made public? Why or why not? Will it be
given to local authorities? Could local authorities
subpoena or otherwise gain access to the document.
President Meyerson notwithstanding? Will student
files be affected by the report? Precisely what
actions, civil or criminal, are or will be in the offing?
The issues in this information gap are not, I
submit, trivial ones.

Leave Tondoleo alone!
To the editor
Where and when will it all end? I am weary, very
of picking up The Spectrum and finding
letters and classifieds either to, from or by that
mysterious personage, Tondoleo Lubitsch.
Those of us with taste recognize her noxious
prose for what it is: vile, irresponsible, lurid
pornography. If she is, as you say, a drug addict
and no one would certainly write like that unless she
was
why don’t you help her? She is certainly
doing no one any good forcing her revolting
weary

nonsense upon us.
Also, you are not kidding anyone. I’ll bet that
there is no such person, but is the nOme de plume of
one of the staff writers. Tell me, are Linda Hanley
and Tondoleo Lubitsch one-in-the-same person?

Urges legislative delay
To the editor.

For years 1 have had the greatest respect for
and monkeys. They exhibit an
intelligence which often surpasses their human
counterparts. Since they are not gifted with speech
they must communicate by whatever means they
have at their disposal. The results are often ingenious
and sobering.
On this particular Sunday afternoon a group of
people stood before the monkey house taunting and
abusing the occupants. These “humans” were also
busily engaged in flinging crackerjacks and other
unmentionables at the poor beasts. In response to
excrements and flung them at the spectators. Not
wishing to be upstaged by apes, the people
responded by throwing more cracketjacks and
unmentionables. Visualize the human race and the
Simian population of the Buffalo Zoo locked in
mortal combat. The entire spectacle makes one
wonder if we humanoids are really fit to be the
masters of the earth.
A bit of banality is always good for the soul.
With final exams, graduation and law school (or the
draft) approaching, who cares about more
aggravation? 1 have no ready therapy for the
ailments which I have outlined above but 1 can
prescribe something to suppress the symptoms.

Writers: Please be brief Letters should not exceed M

To the editor

The proposed Code of Criminal Procedure for
New York State currently before the New York
Legislature would incorporate in New York's
criminal law the concept of preventive detention. It
would require scores of changes in the day to day
administration of the criminal law.
Despite its significance, the legislators have not
yet seen the bill they will probably be asked to vote
on this month.
Please write your Assemblyman, your Senator.
Senate Majority Leader Earl Brydges and Assembly
Speaker Perry Duryea, State Capitol Building.
Albany, New York 12224, asking that action on the
proposed code be put off until 1970 to permit time
for study by the Legislature.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;

Nine indictments continue

by Mildred Goldezer
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

The symbolic sanctuary taken by Bruce
Beyer and Bruce Cline in the Unitarian
Universalist Church last August and the
ensuing arrests began a series of indictments
that continue to the present. Currently,
judicial actions are being brought against
three persons: Richard Rose, Bill Yates and
Bill Barry.
two of the
Mr. Rose and Mr. Barry
original Buffalo Nine had been arrested last
summer but were not indicted until now. Mr.
Yates was a key defense witness in the trials
of Bruce Beyer, Gerry Gross, Ray Malak and
Carl Kronberg.
Pamela Gross, chairman of the Buffalo
Nine Defense Committee, anticipates that
additional indictments will be handed down
because “the government is escalating the
cause against the Buffalo Nine in a further
attempt at intimidation of the anti-war and
anti-imperialist movement.”
-

—

Arrested and indicted on charges of
assaulting federal officials, the three may be
tried with Mr. Malak. Mr. Gross and Mr.
Kronberg, whose trials ended with hung
juries.
Chairman of Youth Against War and
Facism, Gerry Gross, commented that the
charges brought against Mr. Rose, Mr. Yates
and Mr. Barry are “trumped-up . . .the
government feels that they can break the
back of the movement with these frame-up
the FBI
charges because they
feel that
the say-so of a cop is enough to convict
anybody, the jurors are probably over-awed
by the FBI and the machinery of the state.”
-

-

Mr. Gross was arrested again on the day
of Mr. Beyer’s sentencing and charged with
suspicion of stealing the car he was driving.
Later, this charge was changed to driving
without a registration and failure to notify
the Bureau of Motor Vehicles of a change of
address. These charges were in turn dropped
and replaced with a charge of possession of a

dangerous drug. His trial will be held June 2
in City Court.
Mr. Kronberg was recently tried on
charges of disorderly conduct and resisting
arrest when returning from a meeting of the
Urban Action organization last fall. The
meeting was to organize a rally to protest the
death of Richard Giff, fatally wounded from
a passing car on the night of a rally for
George Wallace.
After his trial Mr. Kronberg. in a
statement to the press, accused the court
system of political corruption and contended
that his trial was unfair. He was then found
guilty of contempt of court and fined $100
by Judge Zimmer.
Presently, he is appealing this decision
in County Court, claiming that it is a
violation of freedom of speech.
Another appeal is being sought by
Bruce Beyer who received a three-year
sentence for two assault charges. His case is
now going before the New York County
Court of Appeals.

The Spectrum will soon take on a distaff look, as Linda
Hanley, editor-elect, takes office June 1.
Currently serving as feature editor, columnist and editor
of Dimension, The Spectrum feature magazine, Miss Hanley
was selected Thursday evening by The Spectrum editorial
board.
The 19-year-old junior English major from E. Meadow,
L.I. expressed lofty aims for next year’s paper: “There will
not only be more in-depth news coverage and analysis in all
departments, but a shift in priorities, with emphasis on more
thorough and provocative news reporting. This will entail
recruiting more talented people and perhaps enlarging the
editorial board.”
Concerning departments other than news: “1 would like
to see The Spectrum become increasingly imaginative and
creative through them. This would mean more artwork and

�Rail dispute goes
before judge today

Federal Judge John O.
Henderson will hear arguments
today on whether to vacate the
injunction prohibiting South
Buffalo Railway workers from
striking. A group of students had
joined workers in picketing the
Bethlehem Steel plant in support
of better working conditions at
the Lackawanna facility.

A coalition of students and
workers called “Students and
Families for South Buffalo
Railway Workers” was formed
when Arnie Stanton, whose father
works on the railway, urged
students of SDS, Youth Against
War and Facism and the Peace and
Freedom party to picket for the
workers who were stopped by

injunction.

The injunction was later
extended to apply to students and
all others.
Jerry Gross, chairman of
Youth Against War and Facism,
participated in all the picketing at
the steel plant. He said the
original disagreement began when
two workers were suspended for
failingto move a train, which tl\ey
believed could not be done safely
at the time.
Mr. Gross called the suspension
of the engineer and fireman “just
one form of harassment against
the workers.” He contends that
the lack of enforcement of safety
regulations is a major issue in the
strike.
Student marching, which
centered mainly at gate four of
the Bethlehem plant, involved
more than 100 students at times.
Across the street, sympathetic
workers cheered the students and

Junior college phenomenon
Junior Colleges are
(UPI)
America’s educational phenomena
of the 1960s.
For the past eight years, the
two-year junior colleges,
sometimes called community
colleges, have been coming into
being at the rate of nearly one a
week. Sixty new ones opened last
fall, bringing the nation’s total to
960.
About two million students
will be enrolled in two-year
colleges by the end of 1969 and
the annual growth rate of 15% is
likely to increase in the years
ahead.
The junior college, a uniquely
American concept that began in
this century and came into full
development only in this decade,
has become so significant to the
nation’s higher education picture
that a full one-third of those going
beyond high school are taking the

junior college route.
Every state has at least one

Explaining the phenomenal
proliferation of the junior college,
Dr. Edmund J. Gleaser Jr.,
executive secretary of the
American Associates of Junior
Colleges, said:
“Its low cost to students,
proximity to those it was designed
to serve, flexible admission
arrangements, strong counseling
services and varied educational
program seemed to suit the needs
and the times.”

program is designed for students
who intend to finish four years of

Mr. Amico has aimed at
“flushing out small-time dealers,”
since there is “no organized

area.

Along with her attacks on
public school policies and
officials, Mrs. Slominski has been
highly critical of segments of the
University community.

She feels that “vandals” who
recently tore down Project
THEMIS shacks should have been
arrested “on the spot” by police
who were “ready, willing and able
to assist Mr. Meyerson.” She feels
that President Meyerson was “too

weak” to take proper action.
Mrs. Slominski has also been
outspoken in her criticism of The

“utter disgust” of the paper’s drug

symposium coverage.
Mrs. Slominski has also voiced
approval of cooperation
between University officials and
community law enforcement
officers.

...

Parlor games
The film seems bent on congratulating its
audiences for their astuteness and keen powers of
observation, persistently involving them in absurd
cinematic parlor games, something on the order of
‘We know something they don’t know.’
Dennis Murphy, who adapted his novel for the
screen, has oriented the film’s generally uneventful
plot aroqnd the tragic implications of an inverted
“love triangle,” featuring a male pickle in the
middle. The sergeant and a quietly obtuse French
girl employed in a library do battle for the heart and
loins of John Phillip Law, a naive, well-intentioned
rube who, in addition to being a good soldier, owns a
Honda.

Eventually, of course, Steiger’s true nature is
revealed to his properly horrified comrade-in-arms,
whereupon Mr. Law and the librarian roar off into
the sunset on their shiny scooter. Condemned in the
eyes of the world and threatened with the loss of his
command, the sergeant swiftly retires to a leafy
glade, where, after recalling the flashback we saw at
the beginning of the picture, he proceeds to blow the
back of his head off with a shotgun, in a scene
strongly reminiscent of Hemingway,

Jack Wild’s Artful Dodger is the only truly
inspired piece of casting in the film, and his
consistently excellent work at least salvages the
scenes in which he appears. Wild’s presence in the
film is not without its disadvantages, however. It
serves as a continual painful reminder of what the
entire enterprise might have been like had it been in
more capable hands.

Song transplants
What I consider most fascinating about Lionel
Bart's score is its wonderful all-purpose adaptability,
the fact that the majority of the songs could be
transplanted intact into countless other shows
without any distortion of their ingeniously irrelevant
meanings. A big production number like “Consider
Yourself,” for example, which involves the
combined talents of the entire London population,
could be just as comfortably berthed in a show like
“How to Succeed in Business,” “Where is Love,”
Oliver’s musical post-mortem on his unknown
mother, could, with a slight alteration in tempo and
a different vocalist, work nicely as a Helen Morgan
torch song.
My point here is simply that composer-lyricist
Bart, however admirable his intentions, makes
Dickens seem hopelessly trivial. Furthermore, the
score does not evolve naturally and organically from
the fabric of the drama, but instead appears to have
been tacked on as an unpleasant afterthought. The
film’s orchestration, perhaps the one aspect of
musicals in which it is almost impossible not to
display some degree of competence, is an unhealthy
mixture of heavy brass and weeping violins,
obtrusive in all the wrong places.

�A search for someone who ‘knew’
years, Alpert took everything he
could to stay high.

by Joseph Fembacher
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

Invasion of bowling alley
One incident he related was the
“day five of us moved into a
bowling alley. We had food, blow
torches and other toys. We were
going to stay for three weeks.
While there, we took 400
milligrams of LSD every hour. We
did this for three weeks. At the
end of the three-week period, we
came down. It was a very unstable
thing. It wasn’t' a communal
affair. There was too much ego
involved between us.”
In 1966 Alpert toured and
lectured at different universities
including an appearance at the
State University of Buffalo. He
did this to make “bread.” He was
constantly being presented as the
debate partner to Sidney Cohen.
“I was the good bad guy because I
wore a suit and tie and still held
the airs of an educator. Tim was
the bad guy because he did his

It was a hot muggy afternoon. Hundreds of people were
outside playing with frisbees and other assorted fair weather
paraphenailia. Inside, in a stuffy room, 100 people were
given a three-hour tour of Richard Alpert’s experiences from
the high mountains of Nepal to the concrete of the Harvard
University campus.
“I would like to share with you Empire builder

what has been

because there is a possibility we
are on the same trip together.” So
began the aging holy man.
He was dressed in a white gown
similar to those worn by Indian
high priests and wore sandles. His
hair was receding rapidly and his
beard was reaching Rip van
Winkle proportions. He spoke in a
calm, mild voice that was at once
both ssothing and strong.
He related to the audience
some of what he had been doing
in the past few years. He was a
professor of psychology at
Harvard, Stanford and Berkeley.
He was a Freudian psychologist.

experience.”
It was after some time that he
finally realized “everyone was
hung up; they weren’t sending out

ecKiiv

vibrations.”
He began experimenting with
all sorts of drugs. Describing one
of his excursions he said: “I was
sitting there on the couch in the
living room at Tim’s place (Tim
Leary) really gone on drugs.
Suddenly as I was standing there,
my body slowly began to dissolve
until there was only the couch
left. I panicked. I thought I would
die. I was going into a bad session.
While there, something said:

time I wasn’t what Reisman calls
the ‘other-directed man.’ I was in
a high state of ecstasy. I ran out in
the snow and started playing
around. It was beautiful. Then I
ran home and began to shovel my

parents came to the window and
looked out yelling for me to get
inside. Then I realized that it was
cool to shovel the walk at night in
a blizzard.” For the next five

own thing.

“I used to hang out with
Huxley and all the other big acid
users. Trying to find out if they
‘knew.’ I was searching for

someone who ‘knew.’ I couldn’t
find it in any of them.”

Introduction to Zen

Alpert was starting to get very
depressed
due to a combination
of too much hash and not finding
anyone who ‘knew.’
It was then that he met a man
who retired at the age of 35 to
study Zen Buddhism. He had sold
a company he owned to Xerox for
-

$5 million.

They bought a land-rover
equipped with everything and
began to travel. They went to Iran

and Afganistan looking for holy
men. Alpert used to give LSD to
them. He kept getting the same
reactions to it he had been getting
in the States. Describing this trip,
e.g., “journey,” he said: “All I
saw was the lighted hashish pipe
and the insides of the land-rover.”
They went to India and
roamed around for a while. There
they met a man who was.well over
six feet tall, dressed in long white
robes and bare-footed. He had
long yellow hair and his name was
Michael.
Hesse re-read
Alpert decided to accompany
him on his robe-clade, barefoot
travels. They wound up singing
holy songs and dodging dung
heaps. The story Alpert told was
like re-reading Hesse’sSiddhartha
with Alpert as Govinda.
This strange man escorted
Alpert up into the mountains to
meet his guru. Alpert, at first
turned off, eventually became a
disciple of this strange and
beautiful man.
At a temple up in the
mountains Alpert began his
training. His teacher was silent
and wrote all messages on a chalk
board.
Though well advanced in years,
Alpert’s guru had the body of an
18-year-old. His total food
consumption for 15 years was two
glasses of milk a day. His total
feces were two in number and the
size of a marble.

What Alpert went into after
relating all this was something
that was as confusing as it was
beautiful
a discussion of his
abstract religious philosophy.
One thing he did say he learned
at his temple in the mountains
was that all the “stuff” Christ was
saying in the Bible was true. “He
was straight in everything He
-

said.”
“LSD is like a Christ in
America,” Alpert said. When
questioned as to whether or not
he has any powers, he said; “Let
he hear what he can hear.”
He said that he didn’t see
people as individuals any more he
saw them as lights varying in thenown personal intensity. He also
said that God is everything,
everybody.
Concluding

his

three-hour

“trip” he simply called for those
who felt it to sing a chant with
him, “Rama, Rama, Rama.”

Buffalo’s varsity hardballers

their 1969 baseball campaign

The Blue and White completed
their southern tour with victories
in their last three games, to give
them a 4-9 mark on their Sunshine

beginning to jell and it would be
only a matter of time before they

magnificantly in the second game
until the bottom of the seventh
when The Citadel scored four
more unearned runs as result of
Buffalo miscues.
The twin loss stretched the
Bulls’ losing streak to six games
and left everyone on the team
certain that things couldn’t get
much worse. But things did.
Buffalo traveled to the
University of South Carolina, the
home of Paul Dietzel and Frank
McGuire, and went down once
again in a 5-0 whitewashing. Bull’s
big catcher Gary Dean, collected
Buffalo’s only hit
a single to
center in the fourth inning.
The Buffalo team said goodbye
to South Carolina where southern
hospitality wasn’t to Buffalo’s
liking as they lost all their games
and departed for Fort Bragg in
Fayettesville, N.C., to participate
in the Fort Bragg tournament.

The Bulls kicked off their
invasion of the South at the
University of Richmond on a
sorry note losing 5-1. Sophomore
right-hander Don Jok had a
no-hitter going into the fifth
inning, but he was then victimized
by a rash of Bull errorors losing
the game and his no-hitter.

the number five team in the
country. After a troublesome ride

out of Clemson) and three hours
of sleep, the team ventured out
onto the field to face their
opponents. They should have
stayed in bed as the Clemson
Tigers walloped the Bulls 28-1.
The less said about this disaster
the better, but in case anyone is
interested, Buffalo scored its only
run in the seventh inning when
Bob Stiscak drove in Steve Nelson
with two-out double.
The next day proved that a
good night’s sleep doesn’t always
make much of a difference as
Clemson swept a doubleheader
from the Bulls 18-4 and 15-4. The
Tigers’ power-laden team cracked
seven home runs in the twin bill.
Buffalo had two HRs.

Win number one
North Carolina proved more to
Buffalo’s liking than South
Carolina, so they finally broke
into the win column with a
come-from-behind 9-8 triumph
over the Fort Bragg team.
Buffalo rallied from a 5-2
deficit in the eighth inning to tie
the game at 5-5. The key hit was a
two-run homer off the bat of
outfielder Frank La Verdi. The
Blue and White took a
commanding 9-5 lead in the ninth
and managed to hold on in the
bottom of the ninth to win
victory number one.
Happiness was sweet but short
because the next day the Bulls
dropped a 10-1 verdict to
California State, in a game marred

Luckless but trying
Discouraged but undaunted,
the Bulls took a much needed rest
and then proceeded on to
Charleston, S.C., and a double
header with The Citadel.
Although the Bulls dropped
both ends of the doubleheader to
The Citadel by scores of 6-2 and
5-1, it was obvious to the

mental

Coach Bill Monkarsh was a
very unhappy man and his
tongue-lashing between games
communicated this fact to his
players. The Bulls played better
ball in the second game but
dropped a heartbreaking 5-4 tenth
inning contest to Fort Bragg.
Buffalo’s record was now one win
and nine defeats.
Lefty Steve Nelson turned the
tables the next day with a
well-pitched 1-0 triumph over
RP1. The crafty Nelson whiffed
ten batters and allowed only five
hits in notching his first win of
the season.

Highpoint of season
The highpoint of the season
occurred when the Bulls,
displaying combined
overpowering slugging with fine
pitching and a super-tight defense,
bombed California State 12-4 and
Fort Bragg 11-0 in one day.

In the first game, Buffalo
collected 16 hits in seven innings
to back up Tom Rectenwald in his
first triumph of the season. Senior
right fielder Doug DeMarco led the
attack with three hits, including a

The Harvard strike was called
to pro t est the school’s decision to
enlist the aid of state and city
policemen to end an occupation
of the University’s administration
building by 200 students. Four
hundred local and state police had
stormed into the building with
clubs swinging Thursday, injuring
about 30 and arresting nearly 200
students.
The police crackdown
appeared to rouse sympathy for a
movement protesting the school’s
Reserve Officers Training Corps
(ROTC), the cost of the student
housing, and the University’s
expansion into neighboring areas.

Two thousand persons were
present at Thursday’s rally when
the three-day student strike was
announced. Spot checks indicated
the halls were only half-filled.
The success of the strike on the
15,000- student campus could not
be accurately measured because
Harvard has an “unlimited cuts"
system under which students can
pass up classes if they wish.
While the pickets patrolled the
historic campus, members of the
faculty attended a meetingwhich
urged the dropping of all criminal
charges against the students.
The faculty avoided any vote
of confidence in Harvard
President Nathan Pusey for calling
police onto the campus. They did,
however, urge that the
University’s students and faculty
discontinue
their
activities.

Revolution at Gate No. 4

A university's responsibility

Lackawanna’s grimy atmosphere has found a breath of
fresh air in the past few weeks, as students massed to
support a wildcat strike on the South Buffalo Railway.
For nearly two weeks, students and workers carried signs
together in front of Gate No. 4 of the Bethlehem Steel
Corp.’s huge Lackwanna plant, in defiance of a court
injunction. The workers were challenging the strike
restrictions on transportation labor and protesting dangerous
working conditions at the steel plant. Students wanted to
prove to workers, and perhaps themselves, that ‘solidarity
with the working class’ was more than radical rhetoric.
Side-by-side stood the students who had voted for Gregory,
the workers who had voted for Wallace.
Whether either the students or workers accomplished
what they wanted is still unclear. However, the ice has been
broken; each group, it seems, was pleasantly surprised by the
other.
The test of the power of this new ‘alliance’ of course lies
ahead. Can student/worker activity spread to other unions?
Perhaps even influencing not only union rank-and-file
towards action, but also efforts to integrate hiring policies?
Will a new political force develop in certain areas, uniting
these most politically alienated segments community? How
far can the good feelings be extended, in the face of
ethnocentricity and of the resentment by workers of
students’ ‘special privileges?’ Will the students see themselves
in classical terms as some sort of ‘vanguard’ of the workers,
or rather as ‘allies’ in a multi-directional revolutionary
movement? More immediate a test: Will the probable
union/management agreement to drop charges of contempt
of court against the workers include amnesty for students as
well?
The experience was at least an educational, if not a
radicalizing experience for workers and students alike.Both
must realize that they are cogs in a corporate machinery
which does not serve them, which is not controlled by them.
As stereotypes have blurred, eyes have been opened.
We once again suggest, however, that students can use
their own community as a test of commitment to the
working class. Most of the ‘products’ of this University will
become part of the new working class: teachers, technicians
and others are as ‘exploited’ in contemporary industrial
society as the man in the coveralls; in many ways more,
because they have no rights of collective bargaining. The civil
service employees here, for instance, are paid miserable
wages, receive meager benefits and, more importantly, must
operate their so-called unions under the extremely harsh new
threats of the Taylor Law. The working conditions, the
hiring policies, the wages and benefits, the bargaining rights
of all employees of the University, including the cafeteria
helpers, janitors, technicians, graduate assistants, and faculty
members are filled with callous inequities which deserve our
immediate attention.

Republication

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief.

I do not suppose, but rather I know that any
that conducts any form of research
whatsoever has a responsibility to civilization
to
remain totally uninfiltrated by any ijiilitary interests
or any other interests that will use the results of its
research to inflict death or discomfort upon human
beings. How do 1 back up this position? One
particular historical case, I think, stands as an
one result of
extreme example: the atom bomb
the universities’ irresponsible condonement of the
misuse of its scientific results.
Albert Einstein, in his investigations of atomic
theory at Princeton University, made certain
scientific discoveries concerning nuclear reactions. It
is common knowledge that the original purposes of
his research, at least, were entirely scientific and not
intended to be used in the development of any
weapon intended to kill anyone. Yet by some
strange chain of perversions, his discoveries and
subsequent research led to the atomic bomb and the
slaughter at Hiroshima.
Were these discoveries converted into this form
of weapon in the interests of human welfare? Did, in
fact, the U.S. military, in dropping it on Hiroshima,
further human interest? Has, in fact, the military’s
meddlings with nuclear reactions served to place the
world in any other significant position other than on
the brink of diaster? Would any of this scientific
knowledge have been so perverted from its rightful
course had the universities of America been in their
proper moral and responsible position at the time of
Albert Einstein?

The latest ploy of CAUSE and BUILD is a move
reminicent of those glorious days of the American
Revolution: they will refuse to pay the new 1%
increase in the state sales tax, claiming, “No
Taxation Without UB Job Representation!”
It's no secret to the worst economists in our
midst that a sales tax is regressive, that it hits the
poor the hardest. Yet the governor
once known as
“2% Rocky, last of the big spenders” has done a
turnabout, recommending cuts up and down the
budget line while becoming “3% Rocky.”

In the nation’s interest?
To the editor:

The increased militarization of the nation’s
economy can only mean lower living standards for
many millions of Americans, especially the
non-white minority. It is not by accident that the $7
billion for the initial expenditures to finance the
antiballistic missile system
so that total military
costs now exceed $80 billion
contribute directly
to a rise in the prime interest rates for loans to an
all-time high of 7.5%. The interest rate rise is not due
to inflation by civilian purchases but to the
ever-expanding military costs demanded by the
Pentagon and supported by powerful politicians and
certain business interests.
Most certainly one of the most immediate
impacts of increased interest rates owing to increased
context.

King Rocky suddenly becomes a changed man, a

liberation is of as much concern to the male as to the
female since it is only by her liberation that he

himself can be freed. Women’s being an appendage
of men has merely added weight to him. He is under
pressure from Her whose life is usually dominated by
“marriage-by-25-or-failure.”

Woman has been politically emancipated for a
long time but still remains to effect her own internal
emancipation. Her role begs redefining, and, like the
black thing, only she can do it. I for one will be
thankful for it. After all, one individual plus an
appendage still makes only one individual; but one
individual plus another individual makes two
individuals, both subsequently more than one.

Damage at Hayes, Themis site studied
by Richard Schwab

Spectrum StaffReporter

At least 20 students will face “campus
discipline, civil action or criminal action or
a combination” when a University
investigation of the destruction at Project
Themis and “subsequent events” comes to
a close.
The investigation is expected to be
completed within a week.
University President Martin Meyerson
said i Monday that two law school
professors, James L. Magavern and Robert

Fleming, are now gathering
“information about students and others”
which will be turned over to existing
agencies for appropriate action.
“In the case of Hayes Hall (occupied
overnight after the destruction of Themis)
the contemplated actions relate to alleged
theft of property and removal of files. In
the case of the construction site behind
Sherman Hall (the Themis site), civil action
for the recovery of damages is being
initiated ...”
B.

There was some speculation that the
construction company that owned the
sheds destroyed March 19 might take civil
action against the University. But the civil
action will be initiated in conjunction with
the State University Construction Fund,

the contractor and the State Attorney
General.

A statement circulated by the Office of
the Assistant to the President to all faculty
and staff during the spring recess urged “all
who may have something to contribute to
the review of the facts” to contact the law
school professors. The statement was also
available in Norton Hall.

Counsel consulted
Professor Fleming said that court action
will be handled by the Office of the
/Attorney General. The State University of
New York counsel in Albany has already
been consulted. He emphasized that the
administration contemplates bringing the
same students before the undergraduate
Student Judiciary and the Committee on

Student Behavior for possible academic

He concluded: “The freedom and the
viability of Universities are at stake. As at

setting where deliberation rather than

was posted at Charles University. Crowds

stood in the sunshine to read that teachers
of the philosophy faculty and workers of
three factories near Prague joined in
condemning the vandalism of riots against
the Soviets but protesting the restrictions
which resulted.
The teachers-workers mimeographed
resolution said if there were any change in
the party and government leadership or if
conservative pro-Soviet forces seized power
the teachers and workers would strike.
Their resolution called on students,

was partly for this case
their fellow student, Jan Palach, burned
himself to death early this year.
As the students met to plan details of
the strike, workers and teachers joined the
students and journalists in objections to
the reimpositio'n of full censorship and
official reprimands to 16 journalists.
Censorship was reimposed at insistence
of the Soviet Union following anti-Russian
demonstrations that grew out of a
celebration of a Czechoslovak victory over
a Russian team in an ice hockey game.
There also had been threats of a Soviet
military clampdown if the anti-Russian
demonstrations continued.
The Czechoslovak presidium met and
issued a statement over Prague television
saying the situation remained serious
because anti-Soviet and anti-Socialist forces
were still at work. They, indicated an ever
harder crackdown on the press.
Students at the philosophy faculty
where Palach studied met to map out a
plan to occupy the university. They said no
date had been set for the strike because
they were trying to coordinate plans with
other departments and universities but that
it most likely would be “within the next
few days.”

“Young people had forgotten
the struggle their than before.
These young people didn’t see the
need for the then before. These
young people didn’t see the need
for the continuing revolution, so
the Red Guards were the
instrument by which the young
people were included. The Red
Guards were the shock troops,
exposing the capitalists and
revisionists in the regime.”
She commented on the “Great
Proletariat Cultural Revolution,”
begun in 1966: “The revolution
must change people’s minds, and
that takes a long time. You have
to have a new society, a new
ideology.

1968 did all the provinces have
committees. The committees were
made up of the military, political

cadres and the revolutionaries
themselves.”
A short film on modern China

with recent industrial and social
changes!

Peking, concentrating on the
advantages gained under the

greater recreational facilities and

�Civil rights attorney on trial,
brands charges ‘harassment’
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (CPS)
The Kentucky State Bar
Association has begun a closed
trial of Daniel T. Taylor III, one
of the state’s best-known criminal
and civil-rights lawyers. If this
quasi-judicial court, finds him
guilty of the charges against him,
Mr. Taylor will not be allowed to
practice law anywhere in the
nation.
Mr. Taylor’s lawyer,
nationally-known William
Kunstler, maintains that the case
is part of a national pattern of
harassment of civil-rights
attorneys. “If Taylor goes down,”
he warns, “it Will create fear of
unpopular causes not only among
other lawyers in Kentucky, but
throughout the nation.”
He claims such a reaction
would be especially harmful in its
effect on young attorneys and
students of law who are becoming
interested in civil-rights causes.
Mr. Taylor is a 41-year-old
native Kentuckian with a

penchant for theatrical courtroom
behavior. He is known as “Crazy
Dan” because of his constant
advocacy of unpopular causes,

and

his admittedly-antagonistic
manner in the courtroom.
Since his admission to
in 1954, Mr. Taylor has
represented 68 accused murderers
and hundreds of other clients
charged with such crimes as
conspiracy to destroy property,
draft-evasion and sedition. He has
also represented others arrested
during open-housing and public
accommodation battles here,
student socialists from the
University of Indiana, and victims
of police brutality.
In April, he will defend
militant leaders charged with

conspiring

to

destroy

private

property during last spring’s
disorders here.
Daniel Taylor, in explaining his
involvement with civil-rights
causes says; “I became aware,
shortly after 1 finished law school,
that the poor man and the black
man got a different manner of
justice. This awareness tortured
me for a couple of years as a
matter of conscience . . . because I
knew that, to be financially
successful, a lawyer has to be
somewhat biased in his choice of
clients.” He works without fees
“damn near all the time.”
Mr. Taylor has filed suit in
federal court to have the
disbarment proceedings stopped,
claiming, among other things, that

the proceedings are “deterring,
intimidating, harassing, and
punishing (him) because of his
representation of controversial
clients
all in violation of the
Sixth
and Fourteenth
Amendments to the Constitution
of the United States.”
...

The disbarment proceedings
were initiated by Criminal Court
Judge J. Miles Pound and
Commonwealth’s Attorney Edwin
Schroering.

Judge Pound, 66-year-old
former Army Reserve colonel, has
recently become somewhat
infamous due to his bizarre
behavior in court. He is known to
frequently carry a revolver at the
bench.
In the summer of 1968, during
the trial of four men accused of
murdering a policeman, he
displayed his revolver to a group
of reporters. He said he had
information that the defendants
planned to make a break and he
warned the reporters to be ready
to “hit the deck.”
Another charge against Mr.
Taylor is that he “did falsely and
disrespectfully accuse the
presiding judge (Mr. Pound) of
making a vile, low, mean, base,
contemptible, derogatory,
contumelious, injudicious
statement, to wit: ‘You dirty son
of a bitch.’

Mississippi

Limits on free
speech increase
STATE COLLEGE*, Miss.
(CPS)
New speaker screening
regulations formulated by the
Mississippi Board of Trustees of
Institutions of Higher Learning
amount to a tightening of the
board’s stranglehold on free
speech on state campuses.
Reflecting a paternal attitude
toward student organizations, the
new rules, ordered rewritten by a
federal panel of judges in January,
strip students of the power to
invite speakers and invest the
authority only in college
presidents, deans or department
—

heads.
Speakers, the rules say, cannot
be announced political candidates
or their advocates, or anyone who
advocates rioting or whose
presence could be constituted to
constitute a “clear and present
danger of inciting a riot.”
Under the old rules, student
organizations could invite
speakers only with the approval of
the university administration and
the board. These rules prohibited
those speakers who would “do
violence to the academic
atmosphere” and those charged
with crimes or “moral
wrong-doings,” as well as speakers
“in disrepute in the area from
which they came.”
When the board, using these
rules to reverse university
approval of Mississippi NAACP
leader Charles Evers to address
campus young Democrats, some
800 students at Mississippi State
University staged a free speech
rally.

It was this decision by the
board, banning Mr. Evers, that
brought four Mississippi State

beautiful fv
beer! m

the
students into a suit
board for refusing state NAACP
President Aaron Henry permission
to speak at the University of
Mississippi in 1966.
The suit was heard in U.S.
Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in
Greenville. M. M. Roberts, board
president and attorney, argued the
board’s case, explaining that the
rules were written “with people in
mind like a sex expert in New
York (marriage counselor Peter
Bcrtocci) and that religious Pike
fellow (Episcopal Bishop James A.
Pike) on the West Coast.”
After only two hours of
testimony the rules were declared '
“unconstitutionally vague” and
the board was given 60 days to
write a more specific set of rules
governing campus speakers.
Following the recent
announcement of the board’s
new. even more restrictive
guidelines, the Mississippi State
called for
University
reorganization of the state board
of trustees.
As lawyers for the students
were challenging the new board
policy. Dr. Earle Reynolds, critic
of American policy in Vietnam,
was barred from the University of
Mississippi on a temporary order
from Judge Coleman. Board
President Roberts sought the
injunction

against

Reynolds

because his stand “against
warfare” and his position on
Vietnam might breed hostile
feeling toward the compulsory
ROTC program at Ole Miss.
Speaker controversy has also
arisen this year in another Deep
South state. Early in February a
court order was required to allow
Yale chaplain William Sloan
Coffin’s appearance at Auburn
University in Alabama. University
President Harry Philpoft had
banned Coffin, saying he “might
advocate violating the law,” and
“he is a felon.”

The degree was from another
descent by Soviet tanks on
Prague.

Available information indicates
that Moscow gave a very harsh
warning to the Czech
Government, which in turn did its
utmost to get matters in Prague
back under reasonable control.
The essential point is that
President Nixon would have had
to call off the present round of
negotiations with the Russians
had there been a second
brutalization of the Czechs. It
continues to be impossible for a
government in Washington to deal
amiably with Russians when they
themselves treat their neighbors in
an atavistic manner.
The

episode indicates how
fragile is the context within which
the negotiations are proceeding.
Neither the Russian state nor
people have yet reached that
point of sophistication when they
can accept without violent
reaction the fact that they are
unloved by their neighbors.

Their apparently reflexive
inclination is to strike out brutally
whenver a small neighbor lets its
true feelings show. The youth of
Prague did so by tearing apart the
Soviet airline ticket office in
Prague.

It was too much for
Communist self-righteousness and
Soviet chauvinism. The two
together always seem to set the

has many times attacked someone
smaller and so presumed to be
weaker. The presumption was not
always valid. Finns and Turks
have frequently proved able to
defend themselves against the
Russian bear.
Western capitals can not know
precisely how close the Soviets
came to moving their tanks again
into Prague. Perhaps the threat
was part bluff. The threat to take
action against West Berlin over the
West German election being held
there was certainly all bluff.
Nothing more has been heard of it
since.
But Moscow seems to have a
lower boiling point when
Czechoslovakia is involved. And
having the tanks already inside the
country and aimed at Prague
makes it easier.

Talks continue
The fact, though, is that the
Soviet-American taks went ahead
right through the moment of
crisis. American negotiators,
inwardly holding their breathe,
went on talking. One wonders
how much this may have
influenced the Russians to stay
the
mailed hand
in
Chechoslovakia. It would be
pleasant to be able to think that a
quiet American diplomat helped
the Czechs just by keeping on
talking about arms limitations and
the Middle Hast.
Both of those subjects
continue to be under constant
discussion now. The pace of the
negotiations has moved up; Soviet
Ambassador Anatoly F. Dobrinin
is at the State Department now
almost every day.
The subject under most urgent
treatment is the Middle East.
Washington is operating as though
an agreement may actually be
possible, and even in sight, with
Moscow.
Agreement in this case means

merely a formula mutually
acceptable to Moscow and

Washington, with the concurrence
of Paris a'nd London.

ah'“imposed”

there is that the
slightest thought in Washington of
a great-power settlement being
“imposed” on Israel and the
Arabs.
What the negotiators here are
seeking it a formula which would
cany the stamp of approval of the
four.
If this can be achieved the task
of trying to “sell it to,” not
“impose it on,” Egypt and Israel
would be handed over to Dr.
Gunnar V. Jerring, United Nations
special envoy. The negotiators are
reaching for such a formula.
But even getting an agreed
formula might be a long step
toward bringing relative stability
back to the Middle East. It would
be difficult for Arabs and Israelis
to ignore or refuse to consider a
formula which had the joint
approval of both Moscow and
Washington. And the two could
no longer be played off against
each other.
What Mr. Nixon is really trying
to do, in the larger sense, is to aid
in the domestication of the Soviet
state. He is trying to lead them
through a process of negotiation
toward sensible and fair
agreements on the various matters
under discussion.

ROTC
Editor's note: The following is
part of a fact sheet written by
Col. John J. Herbert Jr., professor
of aerospace studies and head of
the ROTC program at the State
University of New York at
Buffalo. The first part appeared in
the March 26 issue of the
Spectrum.
Q: What is the story on
educational delays for AFROTC
grad ates?
A: AFROTC graduates who apply
4 are accepted by an accredited
graduate school (also medical,
dental or law school) may request
that their active duty be delayed
to allow them to study for an
advanced degree. In the course of
graduate study, the new 2nd Lt,
would be in the R e, must keep
the Air Force informed about his
academic progress and standing.
His educational delay may be
cancelled any time the
Lieutenant’s academic
performance becomes marginal.

‘ABM system; Yes or No’

prefer to have an officer enter the
Air Force with an advanced
degree. That is just good common
sense, not “draft dodging” as
alledged in the last Spectrum
article. A 2nd Lt grad ate of the
AFROTC program who does not
request an educational delay
serves a minimum of four years on
active duty. Those who elect to go
for a Masters or Doctorate while
drawingsthe pay and allowances of
an officer on active duty, serve an
additional three years for each
year of schooling paid for by the
government. Those who elect to
become a pilot or navigator serve
on active duty for five years after
they complete flight training.

Editor's note: The following
article was written by Marvin
Resnikoff associate professor of
physics in the Faculty of Natural
Sciences and Mathematics.

I have been quite disturbed
about this ABM business for the
past few months. For a longer
time I have been disturbed about
our screwed-up priorities, and
whether the military boys actually
know what they are doing. The
latter scares me the most. (Maybe

carrying 20-25 megatons, or three
or four smaller warheads, and will
have 500 such by 1975, according
to the Defense Department. The
accuracy (to within 0.6 miles) and
megatonnage of the SS9 missile
places our Minuteman missiles in
jeopardy, even if put in hardened
silos. With a potentially reduced
deterrent force, the Soviets may
feel confident enough to attack
first.
Lest we forget, the Chinese will
have about two dozen missiles by
1975 and may be irrational
enough to attack first. The ABM
will protect our Minutemen by
intercepting foreign ICBM’s, and
thus we will have our second
strike virtually intact. This will
prevent the Russians from striking
first, and will therefore contribute
to world stability and national

Q; I would like to know if there was or is a policy in effect
whereby an F grade can be removed from your transcript after getting
an A in the course at the second try?
A: Effective September 1968, the change in the grading system is
as follows: The new system, under which “modified F” procedure is
abolished, means that when a course is failed and'repeatel the full
quota of semester hours is counted, lowering the final passing grade.
After fulfilling four semester hours in a course and receiving an F, a
student has accumulated a total of zero quality points. Upon
successfully passing the course with an A, and receiving 16 quality
points, the student then has a total of 16 quality points. This would
ordinarily average out to A, but when semester hours are counted
twice the final grade would average out to a B. In both the old and
new systems, however, the first grade of F is never erased from the
student’s record.
Q; Who is responsible for the selection of speakers for
commencement?
A: The Office of the President. The speaker for this June
commencement has already been chosen. Arrangements for such are
generally made many months in advance of the date. Anyone who
wishes to nominate a speaker for commencement may do so, and the
recommendation will be reviewed by the President’s cabinet.

Now, objection to war must be

objection to the draft by
profound moral beliefs which

constitute the central convictions
of their beings.”
An individual's conscience is
recongized as being on a par with
traditional concepts of religion.
The judge disposed of the
charge that objections to one war
but not others would open a
floodgate of claims for
exemption. At the heart of the
matter is an individual’s sincerity,
which can be judged in the courts,
he said.
The ruling said the 1967 draft
act violated the provision of the
first amendment prohibiting laws
“respecting an establishment of
religion.” It called the Sisson case
“a clash between law and
morality,” and warned that
“when the state, through its laws,
seeks to override reasonable moral
a
commitments, it makes
dangerously uncharacteristic
Choice. The law grows from the
deposits of morality.”
“When the law treats a
reasonable, conscientious act as a
crime, it subverts its own power.
It invited civil disobedience,” the
decision continued.

the exemption was extended to all
relgious pacifists. In 1948, the
qualifying phrase about “religious
training and belief” was added,
confining it to “belief in a relation
to a Supreme Being
The
Supreme Court in 1965 liberalized
the definition to include “beliefs
that hold the same place in an
individual’s life as a belief in a
supreme being,” but Congress
reacted by tightening the

definition.
The Seeger decision held that a
person does not have to belong to
an organizee church to be a C.O.,

but the Supreme Court avoided
the issue of broadening the
exemption to include avowed
atheists.

If the Sisson case is appealed,
the Supreme Court may decide
whether non-religious persons can
conscientiously oppose war and
be exempted from the draft
because of their convictions.
Michael Tigar, a Washington
attorney expert in draft cases who
edits the Selective Service Law
Reporter, believes that
administration of draft laws will
be significantly affected if the
Sisson decision is upheld by the
Supreme Court.
Recognition of selective claims
of conscience would stem the tide
of Selective Service offenses,
which are multiplying in
geometric proportions, Tigar says.

Q: Why can’t stoves be made available in Clement Hall for
students’ use?
A: Richard Cudeck, assistant to the director of housing, said: “A
request for the installation of kitchenettes in Clement Hall is now in
the hands of the Facilities Planning Office. Cooking ranges cannot be
installed without facilities available in the same area for the washing of
utensils, the disposal of greases, etc.
“According to Facilities Planning, the question of availability of
services such as water, proper drainage, and exhaust venting in the
proposed areas has been turned over to the Central Maintenance

Black Arts Festival
Almost two weeks of dance,
art, theater, film, poetry, fashion,
music, panels and lectures will
comprise the spring Black Arts
Festival to take place in locations
all over the city. The Festival will
be held from April 14 to April 25,
with events at both the State
University and Buffalo State
University College as well as the
Albright-Knox Art Gallery,
Woodlawn Junior High School,
the Jefferson Educational Center
and the John F. Kennedy Center.
Those being held on this
campus include: a performance by
the Black Dance Workshop; two
showings of the film, “The
Jungle;” a panel on “The Black
Cultural Center in America;” a
showing of the film, “Portrait of
Jason;” a panel on Black music; a
concert by the St. John’s Choir
and showings of the films, “Cool
World,” “Nothing But A Man”
and “Black Orpheus.”
The dance troupe was formed
in late January by eight University
women: Carole Welsh, Sandra
Kevelier, Yvonne James, Sacared
Bodison, . Jackie Allen, Tina
Young, Gail Wells and Glendora
Johnson. The selections they will
be performing for the Festival
include primitive and modern
dance and a jazz number. Said
Yvonne James of the Workshop:
“The dances are expressive of our
black heritage. They are relevant
to black people. Through style
and other aspects they convey the
message of the suffering of black

people.”

�The

mcert preview

grump
by Steese

It was one of those vacations that must have
been a good one because you did not get any work
done, and what other criteria can you possibly use to
tell whether or not a vacation has been a success? Or
so at least goes my own personal rationalization of
being left with the same amount of unfinished work
as I had at the close of classes March 28. It has been
an interesting period that we have been out in the
real world again, however. It would seem to make
the life of one claiming that all of the diverse
happenings should be reducible to some sort of
pattern very hard, but still the world has been
spinning and all sorts of things have happened.
Item: Alfreda Slominski was endorsed by the
Republicans for Mayor of the “Queen City of the
Lakes” after earlier being granted the much
south-after Conservative nomination for the same
much sought-after post. Her campaign song is
reputed to be “What’s it all. about Alfie?” A
hastily-called staff conference of interested members
of The Spectrum has produced a solution
should
you feel the situation calls for one the way some of
us do. The Spectrum will simply endorse Mrs.
Slominski for Mayor next October. This s-.ems to be
one of the most effective means yet devised for
insuring the failure of a political candidate.
Item: CBS announced that the Brothers
Smothers had been bad boys once too often and that
they would not be back next year. Which should go
down in history as one of the most cowardly, sheerly
stupid and indefensible acts in the so-called
entertainment industry. At least the idea tha the
television audience gets what it deserves should be
completely buried. I watched the show in question
on Channel 9 out of Toronto and calling it offensive
can only be the act of a very timid and very dense
board of censorship.
It was certainly neither dirty nor violent, it
might fjust have bothered some people. Note this
decision well. It will completely affect the efforts to
put anything other than pablum on the idiot box,
unless it is more than 300 years old and therefore
assumed safe, for some time. Note also that this is a
completely negative protection. It protects those
who are not constrained to watch, but do so to get
offended
one is forced to assume. For those of us
who would like to watch a show which offers
something of a nature designed to keep one awake
there is no protection, only deprivation. Might one
suggest a letter to CBS, or a petition, or some such
-

carry out bags back out to the car and drive along
home. Oh, if anyone knows whether or not customs
officials
as at the Peace Bridge can legally ask to
see a draft card or not, I would appreciate the
receipt of said information c/o The Spectrum.

Item: Afederal judge recently handed down a
decision that there is a right to a conscientious
objection to a particular war. Which means the poor
old Supreme Court has to quit ducking and say
something, or at least appear to, a game at which
they are becoming very good too. How does one
preserve the right of conscience while preserving the
country while bkeeping a wary eye on Congress?
Keep a close watch on your friendly local newspaper
for the answer. (It should be noted, however, that
the Supreme Court’s recent decision on the legality
"of pornography in the home was reported in the
Courier-Express as “Court OKs Right to Read Filth”
which may indicate a certain lack of warmth on

Johnny Mathis will appear in

One of the major keys to the

the Faith Orchestra, Mathis is able
create a very intimate
atmosphere in his tender love
ballads.
His career began in an obscure
San Francisco night club less than
three weeks after he started his
first professional singing job.
Helen Noga, the owner of the
club, invited George Avakian of
Columbia Records to listen to
Mathis sing. After making a trial
record for Columbia, Mathis got a
series of club dates from Max
Gordon at the Blue Angel, and an
appearance on the Ed Sullivan
Show in June, 1957.
Since then Mathis has been
turning out such hit records as
Wonderful, Wonderful, Chances
Are, Misty, Twelfth of Never, A
Certain Smile, and The Impossible
Dream.

Super-wife and I spent the first weekend of
vacation in Toronto. Nothing much happened that
weekend. Gordon Lightfoot was doing four concerts,
Tom Rush was finishing up two weeks at the
Riverboat, and Julie Driscoll was at the Rockpile on
Sunday. Slow weekend of course compared to the
bustling activity that one finds in our community. (I
wonder if CHUM-FM would like to put an auxiliary
transmitter on a raft in the middle of Lake Ontario?)
Toronto still has some of the best Chinese food this
side of a certain unmentionable large Asian land
mass (Sorry Teddy, I still don’t think that the time is
ripe), some of the best bagals in the Western World,
and a food freak’s paradise of stores selling

After 25

hours of continuous driving, the
State University of Buffalo crew
team arrived in Lakeland (“the
citrus capital of the world”) to
take part in the six-day Cypress
Gardens Regatta.
Upon arrival, the crew took
advantage of the remaining
daylight hours to squeeze in some
practice on the Florida Southern
College course at Lake
-

Hollingsworth.
The next day the crew was up
at 6:30 a.m. to begin serious
training for the regatta. The
team’s spirit was high even though
the men realized that they would
be competing against schools such
as Columbia and Amherst, two

Eastern powers.
Our team faced one big
problem
lack of conditioning.
All of our rivals had the advantage
of either having rowing tanks for
training during the winter months
or being located in warm climates
so that they were on the water for
most of the winter.
Crew gains experience
All these disadvantages were
responsible for the crew’s last
place finish in a field of eight in
the Cypress Garden Regatta,
which was won by Columbia.
Coach John Bennett, reviewing
Buffalo’s performance.
spirit was no substitute for
conditioning and experience. With
this in mind, the team put in three
more days of grueling work before
coming back to Buffalo.
This year’s team is a young,
inexperienced outfit that has
excellent potential. Included on
the varsity boat are four freshmen
Seth Bloom, Pete Jeremin, Fred
Knapp and Steve La Croix; two
sophomores
Don Harvey and
Jeff Smith; two juniors

Shannon and Gabe Ferber, and
senior Joe DeGeorge.
The spring schedule starts
tomorrow as the Buffalo oarsmen
compete against the Ithaca
College shell on the Black Rock
Channel.

Recruits welcome
A vigorous recruiting drive is
being kicked off to encourage
people to come out for crew.
Emphasis for recruits is on height,
but spirit in any size man is of
utmost importance.
Especially needed are
coxswains and a manager. A

manager both works and trains
with the crew. He is the coach’s
right-hand man and is an integral
part of the functioning of any
crew.

All interested people are
invited to an introductory
meeting at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday
in Norton Hall, room 333.
Freshmen are especially welcome
since the basics learned now will
be applicable next year.

�IBM invites you to join an infant industry.
Big as it is. the information processing
industry is just beginning to grow.
Recently, Fortune estimated that thjs value
of general purpose computers installed in
this country will more than double by 1972.
Other publications have other predictions,
and probably no source is totally precise. But
most agree that information processing is
one of America’s fastest growing major
industries.
Every day, it seems, computers go to work
in a new field or new application. IBM computers are working in such diverse fields as

business, law, medicine, oceanography,
traffic control, air pollution. Just about any
area you can name.

To somebody just starting out, this growth
means exceptionally good chances for
advancement.Last year, for example, we
appointed over 4,000 managers—on
performance, not seniority. Here are four
ways you could grow with IBM:

Engineering and Sciei

“I’m pretty much the
IBM Corporation in
the eyes of my
customers,” says
Andy Moran. “I
consider that fairly good for an engineer
who graduated only two years ago.”

Career areas in finance at IBM include:
Financial Planning and Control, Financial
Analysis, Accounting, InformationSystems,
and Internal Auditing. You'll need at least a
Bachelor’s degree.

involved in the planning, selling and installation of data processing systems.

Andy’s customers include companies with
annual sales ranging from 20 million
to 120 million dollars. He often works
with executive vice-presidents and presidents. Andy says, “At first I was a little
nervous about the idea of advising executives at that level. But by the time I finished
training, I knew I was equipped to do the job.”
Career areas in marketing at IBM include:
Data Processing Marketing and Systems
Engineering, Office Products Sales, and
InformationRecords Sales. Degree requirement: B.S. or B.A. in any field.

Nick says, "Your specialty at IBM can take
you into the front vard of half a dozen different fields. In my job, for example, I work
with systems design engineers, chemists,
physicists, metallurgists, and programmers.
The diversity helps me keep up to date on
the latest technologies.”

Earl defines a “program” as a set of
instructions that enables a computer to do a
specific job. “Programming involves
science,” says Earl, “because you have to
analyze problems logically and objectively.
But once you’ve made your analysis, you
have an infinite variety of ways to use a
computer’s basic abilities. There’s all the
room in the world for individual expression.'
Career areas in programming at IBM include
Systems Programming, Applications Programming, Programming Research, and
Internal Programming for IBM’s own use.
You’ll need at least a B.S. or B. A.

“Another growth factor is the job itself,”
Joe Says. “During my first few years, I'll get
experience in nearly every area of general
accounting—Income &amp; Expense, Balance
Sheet, and so on. I’ll be learning how the
company is structured and how it operates
on a broad scale. That's exactly thekind of
knowledge I’ll need to help me qualify for
a manager's job."

Andy earned his B.S.E.E. in 1966.Today,
he’s a Marketing Representative with IBM,

The Buffalo Zoo was flattered to be the subject
of a basically excellent article by Paul Stevick in the
March 26 issue of The Spectrum. “Animals at the
Zoo; They’re only human” presents a realistic
picture of what a keen observer may see at the zoo
on almost any typical day. Several points do require
some correction and/or comment.
Elephants do not utilize pits as part of their
courtship and mating. This is an old fallacy that has
persisted for far too many years. A bull elephant
mounts the cow in the same manner as a horse or
any large mammal. Elephants do not remain “locked
in love” for seven days. Seven minutes would be

‘Contradiction of ideals’ cited
To the editor.

"V

March 19 1 observed the demonstrations, the
destruction of construction shacks and the takeover
of Hayes Hall. Between those two, I witnessed the
speeches in the student lounge in an attempt to
understand the reason for the destruction on our
campus, destruction by those same people who yell
the loudest about our government’s destruction in
Vietnam. A contradiction of ideals and morality
exists in those actions. Are we to applaud
destruction on our campus by ourselves and castrate
our political leaders for their decisions to destruct
the country of Vietnam?
There are legitimate issues on this campus that I
feel we the students can and must debate and
demonstrate against. Project Themis is not an
exception; it must be debated. But a debate involves
thinking and the epxression of views, not
destruction.
Because an institution (the Defense Dept.)
produces evil does not mean it is incapable of
producing good. In fact, the chairman of the
Department of Physiology, Dr. Hahn, and the head
of Project Themis, Dr. Farhi, have worked for many
years in the area of respiratory physiology with the
financial support of the Department of Defense.
These men are considered the pioneers of
respiratory physiology and their work sponsored by
the Department of Defense has contributed
to the advances in and curing of respiratory disease.
This research has saved many lives. Can we call this
evil? Well, you are probably saying to yourself great,
but what does this have to do with Project Themis?
Let’s take a look at Project Themis and analyze
its projected research. Themis will concern itself
with environmental, respiratory and exercise
physiology. Environmentally its major concern will
be man and his adaptation to high (underwater
living) and low (high altitude living) pressure. This is
certainly a major concern to all for with the present
population growth rate man will soon exhaust all

closer to the truth. I should mention that the large
concrete pit in the outdoor elephant yard is actually
a swimming pool for the animal’s use in warm
weather. The gestation period is approximately 22
months and the average baby elephant does weight
about 200 pounds. But please, no pits!
There also was a reference to the zoo
environment causing animals to destroy or abandon
their young. Actually this is the exception and not
the rule. We have many good mothers in our
collection (not just the Kodiak bear as the article
implies) but it is quite true that we do have to hand
rear young animals when circumstances warrant.

available space on earth and needed resources and,
hence, have to look elsewhere for space in which to
live and resources upon which to depend. The sea is
certainly a vast area which offers both a habitat
living area and vast amounts of untapped resources.
The moon and other “universes” are other areas
where man will soon adventure that hold possible
benefits to mankind.
In these new environments new diseases will
appear and necessitate new research by men like Drs.
Hahn and Farhi. This research is constructive and
must be done.
Exercise development is another area to be
explored under Project Themis, and perhaps of most
immediate importance for it may directly effect you.
As our society becomes more mechanized, we
become less and less active and cardiac disease and
other diseases caused by inactivity become more
prevalent. How do we prevent cardiac disease or
rehabilitate those who have been struck by it? We do
so by improved exercises that build a stronger
cardiovascular system and improve a system
deteriorated by disease. Understanding of this is the
aim of Project Themis. Can this be called evil?
The philosophy of the Department of
Physiology also encompasses the will to distribute
their advances to all of mankind so that all can
benefit from this constructive research. Since the
philosophy of the Department of Physiology at
Buffalo is to release their scientific advances to the
journals of the world simultaneously with its release
to the Department of Defense classification of such
material would be meaningless.
There are issues which we the students must
think iibout and debate amongst ourselves and the
administration and the faculty of this campus. These
issues range from racial discrimination in admission
policy to acceptance of military training for
academic credit. Project Themis is also an issue on
campus, a badly misunderstood issue, that 1 have
attempted to clarify in this writing.

I am a Korean student who has come to study

to object to any situations concerning war. I have

graduation since 1960 in Korea. I think we had at
But, as far as I have known here, the project is

you. Then, will you oppose any medical research
developments, by which many precious lives of

The first we heard of an investigation was a

that no criminal charges would be filed. Then we received a

In addition to the general plea for a “review of the

members received informally couched telephone requests

information concerning the two incidents.

In reply to letters from Valencia Zielenski and
Martin Gross: The American Federation of State,
County and Municipal Employees has as its
objectives the betterment of the material welfare and
human dignity of all public Employees. Through
Council 50, the employees of New York State are
striving to meet these ends.
An Organization of any type, be it a Political
group, a social group, or a labor union, can only be
what its members make of it. The “lack of effective
avenues for expression of grievances” is only due to
the absence of the required willingness to express
them on the part of employees involved.
As a bona fide local, affiliated with Council 50
A.F.S.C.M.E. AFL-CIO, is obligated to fight any and
all grievances initiated. But nothing can be done
unless grievance procedures are initiated by the
employee or employees involved.
Campus employees have a union; Local No. 196,
Council 50, A.F.S.C.M.E. AFL-CIO. Campus
employees can only have a strong union through
active participation. A union consiting of only the
University employees would be virtually impotent.
But with the support and the know how of
A.F.S.C.M.E. and the AFL-CIO, coupled with the
active and militant membership any union needs, the
employees at the State University of Buffalo can and
will better themselves.

offense would be punishable with a maximum
yentence of a year in jail and a $ 1000 fine.
The vote on this measure was 92-49. The bills
were passed after more than two and a half hours
debate.
The first bill would take away not only the
$1000 maximum Regents scholarship aid, but the
$500 maximum scholar incentive award given to
every state student who goes to school in New York.

The scholarship aid bill, which passed the Senate
earlier in the session, was approved 86-60, with a
handful of Democrats crossing the aisle to join
strong Republican support for the measure.

A referendum to assess student opinion on the adoption
of a resolution of solidarity at Thursday’s Polity meeting
supporting those who destroyed Project THEMIS

has been tentatively scheduled for the first week following
spring vacation.
Signed by the necessary 2% of Brickner statement

the student body, the petition
calling for the referendum
originally scheduled it for today
and tomorrow. Richard Spitzer,
chairman of the Student
Association Board of Elections,
has proposed either April 9 and
10 or April 10 and 11 for the
referendum.
When questioned about the
need for the referendum, Mr.
Spitzer said: “Personally, I’m
against it,” He indicated, however,
that “there is nothing legally that
can be done to prevent it.”
Explaining his reasons for
opposing the referendum, he said:
“The Student Association
President must call a meeting of
the Polity to reexamine the
question, which has not been

done.”

“In this case, the petition
would be presented to Rick
Schwab, and the Polity meeting to
reexamine the issue would be
presided over by Bill Austin. In
other words, I don’t feel the
referendum should come up
during the change of office,” he
continued. “Furthermore, the
referendum would be held just six
days after being passed at the
Polity” and there should be more
time to discuss it, he continued.
The Spectrum is published three
times a week, every Monday,
Wednesday and Friday, during the
regular academic year by the
Faculty-Student Association of the
State University of New York at

for

Mr. Spitzer added that the
two-day referendum
would be difficult because many
students will be leaving for spring
vacation.
A statement issued by one of
the petition’s originators, Gary
Brickner, clarifies their position:
“This referendum was not
initiated with the intent to
repudiate the students taking part
in the Hayes Hall action, or the
six demands made by those
students to the administration,
but only to ascertain the true
feelings of the student body
towards those events and
demands.

standard

“There has been much talk
about a minority speaking for the
majority. This is a chance for the
majority to have its voice heard,”
he added.
Concerned with the voice of
the “silent majority,” Mr.
Brickner explained: “The Polity
meeting put the students of this
school on record as supporting the
events of last week. 1 don’t think
300 students should speak for a

Time ‘beneficial’
“I feel it is beneficial for
students to have time to look it
over. It would be best to hold the
referendum during the week of
April 1; however, that is spring

expressed its opposition to the injunction presently

following statement to The Spectrum:
“The official statements concerning black
students and/or the black community wQI be issued
solely by the Black Student Union. At this point, the

CHICAGO
The United
States could aptly be called the
world’s largest “military-industrial
complex.”
It boasts an armed force of 3.5
million. It has 8000 military bases
within its borders. Ten percent of
its labor force is involved in either
military or defense-related
employment. Some 22,000 of its
biggest manufacturers are prime
military contractors, while more
than 100,000 firms contribute
some type of output to defense
production.
Walk along its streets. You see
no barbed wire, no guard posts.
Its people are basically generous,
outgoing and friendly. Yet the
United States is the world’s largest
exporter of munitions. And its
total expenditure for welfare,
education and poverty programs is
less than the amount spent on
defense.
Few Americans would question
the need for armed strength of
sufficient size and excellent
quality. Certainly, most would
agree that if the past three
decades have taught any lesson, jt

We have come the full circle. Having been raked
over the coals by naughty, impolite and
sensationalist "writers" out to make a quick buck,

and then defended by true-blue, life-long,
card-carrying Buffalonians, ready and willing to take
up arms and die for their city if need be, there
remains a shade of doubt in the minds of those
bored enough to care. Is the name "Buffalo" really
sufficient to conjure up thoughts of imminent death,
disaster and dilapidation in the minds of three billion
inhabitants of the earth? Or is our city the Queen
City of the Great Lakes, the City of Good Neighbors
merely the victim of a greedy world, eager to find

a scapegoat for the Industrial

Revolution and its

poluted aftermath?

The Truth, I would hypothesize from a totally
unbiased perspective, lies unrevealed in the great
grey area of the mind that urges compromise,
moderation and common sense.
The extreme positions, which can be termed the
"muckraking" and the "patriotic" each have their
merits.
Rakers' rhetoric
The rakers can never find enough muck to rake
in this mucky community. In short: it smells, it's
ugly, its weather is just short of unbearable (this
winter was a mutation)
and many of the masses
who strive daily to better the American Dream gone
haywire, are prone to concur.
I am not aware of the average life span of the
average Buffalonian, but those who survive their
initial look at the city must not live an overly
it is estimated that no less than
lengthy existence
147,518 funeral homes presently beckon residents to
the sweet beyond. It's no joke that Buffalo lost close
to 50,000 people from 1950-60. Rumor has it that
the Common Council is debating a bill that would
require each map of the city be inscribed with the
warning: "Caution; Buffalo may be hazardous to
your health."
Even Buffalo magazine, the monthly
propaganda of the Chamber of Commerce, concedes
in its February issue that: "Some of the criticism has
been justified
A poll taken by a radio station
found that most of the people interviewed on the
street agreed that the writer (Glenn Dickey) was
correct in his appraisal of their city (the 'Armpit of
the East')."

Patriots' position
Yet Buffalo trudges on through the
yet-unfamiliar twentieth century. How does she find
the fortitude to wake up each morning to a world
seemingly bent on commiting regicide on the Queen
City? Let's hear from the patriots.
It's easy, according to Buffalo magazine's editor
Earle Hannel: "Most of us have a nasal twang
because of the climate. But battling the elements
produces tough-fibred individuals. And we are."
This same tough-fibred folk are not to be
content to sit
dismissed as pea-brained farmers
down with a good book.(Ma and Pa Kettle Go
Fishing) and on big occasions leave the house for a
picture show. Nope, this is the city that offers
enrichment for all. Its museums are excellent, its
University (hippies, nymphomaniacs and commies
aside) is a haven of intellectual harvest and its zoo is
admittedly the best in its field.
—

Just a city
a,
As the "dynamic capitol of the expanding
Niagara Frontier,” Buffalo is “naturally
air-conditioned," according to its University's
catalogue (which should know better), "enjoying
moderate summer weather and fairly mild winters."
Really! And not overlooking its fine rustic housing,
as Bob Curran enlightens us in the same issue of
Buffalo magazine: "In Buffalo you can live in a nice
house in the middle of the city or in a rural area 20
minutes from the city. As a modern Omar might put
it: 'A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and a sump pump
beside me in the wilderness'."
To state unequivocally that Buffalo is either a
mecca of unparalled Utopia or the only example of
hideousness isn a hideous nation is to miss the boat.
The unhappy truth is omnipresent: Our people, once
infused with a pioneer spirit that enabled the first
Americans to subdue the ravages of Nature on this
continent, have allowed its cities, the home of four
out of every five Americans, to evolve into
conglomerations of inhumanity. As far as spirit, a
wise man once remarked: "Once you get past New
York, everything else is Bridgeport, Connecticut."

�death off the
second myth
by Jay Schreiber

The white formica tables run in two vertical lines
flanking the middle of three rows of booths. At night
late at night
the formica tables are always empty. They
are defenseless, sitting like open rowboats in the sea, and
they are a necessary accommodation to the larger day
crowd. The old men who habitate the restaurant near
midnight and beyond, have a sagacious instinct for
comfort. They sit in old, plain, tall tan wooden booths.
The wood is thin
simply finished. It is constructed in
easy organized, perfect straight lines. The attractiveness of
the booths lies in its wear, its demonstrated marks of age.
it is a natural solace
in constrast to the manufactured
image of time contained in ice cream parlor booths, whose
ornamenting curliques are only an extra contrived effect.

Faces of the old
In one booth there were four empty white porcelain
coffee cups. The old men sitting there had shoved the
cups together to the middle of the table, where, like their
temporary owners, they mingled in close camaraderie. The
men were dressed with a shabbiness that conveyed a
old broad lapel suits, wide flowered ties,
certain dignity
white socks and listless, scuffed black shoes. Their faces
were neither pale or insipid, but quite alive and intense in
varying looks of intimacy, loneliness and a frequent laugh.
Their pride was in their whiskey red noses and their
well-scrubbed and shaven faces. Constant scrubbing and
shaving have left them with shiny red cheeks.
A busboy came to the table and scooped the cups
onto his metal cart. He easily steered the cart behind the
food counter in front, and one at a time ran the cups
under a strong hissing stream of hot faucet water. The
cups, bright and clean, were stacked onto a tray next to
the big coffee tanks in a neat orderly row. The coffee
grounds, the remnants of a rich, vital liquid substance,
swirled in a dizzy circular pattern a few times and then
were hurried down the drain with a new onrush of hot

water.

s.
Old without money
Political rhetoric in America has always had a

natural affinity towards the phrase "start with a clean
slate." The idea behind this phrase is so invested in the
American desire for completion, that it transcends any
particular period of our history. With a clean slate there

are no little smudges or annoying marks. Great efforts and
even greater devices have been formulated to destroy or
successfully hide that which is darkly disturbing. Like old
men, alone and approaching death.

Men in their late sixties and seventies
no family,
from which there is love but also the
unspoken feeling that the old men are a blot on their own
children's future. And from the children can come
financial, but never enough spiritual aid.
If there is a good deal of money supplied by their
caring progeny, then the old men can take trips to
Florida, to California, to Israel, to the old country. If they
are infirm, the men are shuttled into homes with their
"own kind" to find happiness in the maternal nurses that
feed, wash, and apply medicinal treatments. The old men
are quickly escorted to death, washed clean of the last
thread of pride, looking in mirrors to certify their still
human existence.

Hollowness of two myths
These are the old people without any power, the
blue collar workers who fought for unions, the candy
store and small clothes merchants. They were the ones to
engage in the myth of America, leaving their family and
friends in Europe to "seek a better life." And now they
have been further jolted by the hollowness of another
American myth
the golden years. They arrive in this
ordained era to find that the yellow easily scratches away
to reveal an empty yay. But at the age of 70 or so,
compromising with disappointment has become a way of
life. There is nothing left to prove, there is no need left to
impress, and so they find warmth and fulfillment in their
lonely partners
slowly ending the venture of life. They
are innocent and relaxed, traveling at their own speed,
wholly oblivious to the force of life's rapid currents.
Understandably, these proud, defenseless old men,
unwilling to cope with the pressures and hostilities of the
outside world, withdraw in peace. They congregate where
they can still watch their inheritors with disinterest,
bemusement, or even slight degrees of passion.
—

—

Winter sanctuary
When nature is agreeable the old people sit in parks,
but in the cold months they seek their sanctuary indoors.
In New York City the old men gather in the automats in
lower Manhattan. They arrive early in the morning, have a
roll and coffee, and read the newspapers. They clear out
about noon with the onslaught of office workers and
suburban shoppers and return about two p.m. to idle
away the day. Late at night they are still there. The
they all have time to be
memories, the observations
exposed without haste.
The New Chicago Lunch of Buffalo is several steps
above an automat while maintaining the same basic
humanitarian function. The tall wooden booths are more
private for small groups of men to talk. The food is
obtained by walking to the front of an oblong glass
counter and ordering from the neat trays of pastry
beneath the glass or from the food signs on the wall
directly behind the counter.
—

No Howard Johnson's
There are no brightly lit displays, tilling one that
"things go better with Coke," no Howard Johnson
portrait of a dish of deliciously friend clams. The
advertising is honest and simple. There is a long black
board with white lettering that lists most of the items.
The more popular foods Hamburger $.30, Cheeseburger
$.40, Breaded Veal Cutlet Sandwich $.70, are advertised
on small blue paper signs
the lettering is white, and the
numbers are yellow, the latter color having faded at the
edges in the blue background.
Your order is given to a woman behind the counter
who yells it into the kitchen. About five minutes later
your food arrives. The food is cheap, good and you carry
it to your table.
At 11 p.m. it is very quiet in the New Chicago
Lunch. Some of the kitchen help comes out to sit at a
table and smoke cigarettes.
The retired men come in slowly, dressed in long
dark thin overcoats and old wide brim hats. They hang
their nobly anachronistic outerwear on long upright metal
poles. Most of the men merely order soup or coffee. They
sit and savor it as they talk. A few eat along, studying the
horse charts. One men did a crossword puzzle.
—

-

Sounds of the aged
There is a quiet, entrancing, rhythm when old
people talk together. Art Garfunkel captured it with his
tapes that are on the first side of the "Bookends" album.
In the New Chicago Lunch the sounds rise like musical
Four

�coffee shop is as depressing as eating a meal on a new air

The suspicion and resentment of privacy, the desire
for efficiency has created a cultural mass of untouched
and indestructable plastic. They are labeled Chinese
Restaurant, Jewish Delicatessan, Italian Pizza Parlor, and
most grievous by its popularity. Coffee Shop. Eating is

done rapidly, mindlessly, without taking immediate
of the rejuvenation that the body receives from
food
which is why the old men come to the New
Chicago Lunch. While they realize they cannot physically
handle the dangers outside they are tired of being afraid,
of living in paranoia. Here they can speak without
inhibition, knowing the New Chicago Lunch will never be
so impolite or frightened to tell them to shut up.

Pear of hoodlums
An old NeJgro man was walking from table to table,
glorying in his own recognized triviality. He had found a
battered foreign coin that no one could identify. "I been
to Africa, Paris, London
I ain't ever seen a coin like
this. See, I got it wrapped in my handkerchief, see, so it
won't get smudged. See when —I found it I took it home
and scrubbed, and see I can make out the 19 but nothin
else. I'll take it to a coin man downtown and if he gives
me five dollars well that's five dollars I ain't got."
—

A little while later he walked over to a table facing
the front window. He called to those sitting near him:
"Look at those young coots across the street. They're
gonna rob that store, that's what they're going to do. See
they want those clothes, those 15 dollar sweaters. Look
here they come again, they're waiting till the cars leave."
The man turned from the window to the people
listening. "It ain't safe for an old man like me to walk the
streets at night. You got three young hoodlums against
me, they're gonna rob me of my money. I got money in
my pocket from Social Security. I used to live on Cedar
Street but my mother and sister died and if I stay there
alone those hoodlums will rob me. That's what they'll do.
They once took this 80-dollar ring right off my finger, and
I just got it from the pawn shop.

bubbles, only to burst and be replaced by those from

another booth.

Suddenly you realize that the New Chicago Lunch
and their old men complement each other like two
homely lovers. The architecture of the New Chicago
Lunch is Plain Jane. There are long rows of electrically
outdated overhead lights, but they serve their function of
illumination with platonic justice.
The restaurant itself is located on Main Street and
this geographical position permits these veterans the just
reward of easy voyeurism.
During the day, of course, the restaurant operates
for different purposes. Food is served quickly, eaten
quickly, the devourer exits quickly. But the understanding
old men are not that demanding that the artist always be
free of commercialism. Instead they pay their tribute in
their nightly ritual to an environment they quietly respect
for its soothing qualities. The men slowly sit and bask in
the calm heat of talk and sleep and refreshments
drugging the icy pains of loneliness, melting the chilling
fears of a journey almost at a close.

A place to sleep
"I'll stay and sleep here. See, I know the owner. It's
safe to stay here till the morning, and me and some of the
other guys just stay here, and when we're tired we put our
heads on the table and sleep."
With the last words he got up, nodded politely and
strolled over to converse with people in another booth. In
the kitchen there were the sounds of rattling dishes.
Kitchen noises are always comforting.
For the balding grayheads, deemed obsolescent, it is
another small confirmation that they are still vitally alive
in their own unique family.

Legacy for the young
The old supposedly are more easy to forgive, more
patient and willing to teach. They have had the
temperance to be good losers when brutally tricked by
two myths. They look on the young not with contempt.
Their attempts to explain are not didactic. They quietly,
inoffensively, leave their ideas for the young to learn
from. One, of course, is their conception of an eating
establishment.

The legions of the middle class are advised to pay
attention. The first conditioning comes in the public
schools where one is taught to accept eating in
overcrowded, frantic conditions. The 30-minute meal
ideal is ably reinforced by participation in the family
excursion entitled "Sunday Night Eating Out." After an
hour, you are rudely pre-empted with the foreceful
guidance of the maitre'd, to allow another family to kick

over some dough.

The

m

Much of America, expecially those living in the
urban areas,have come to obey the omniprescence of the
chalky textured, heavily mascaraed 40-year old waitress.
She controls your meal's arrival, she delays, or craftily
attempt to shorten your departure with the weapon of the
check. The restaurants are all sterile compositions of
concrete, glass and flourescent lighting. From the
imitation carpets, to the imitation leather upholestry, to
the white on pink on white of the Blu Galaxie, to the
gaudy darkness of Eduardo’s, to the everlastingly newly
laminated menus, the restaurants of the middle class are
nothing more than appalling obvious cheap jewelry.
It reminds one of the new baseball stadium, the

is that these stadiums, besides making the sport's inherent
excitement dull and mediocre, only look attractive when

filled to capacity.
Charm of the lunch
An old favorite chair, when empty, clearly shows
the imprints of its many inhabitants. It still possesses a
human quality. A half empty new stadium, a nearly
empty coffee shop look strikingly inhuman because they
deny the stains and odors and general wear and tear that
would imply some organic quality. Eating in an empty

This "land of the Pilgrims' pride," with
its Anglo-Saxon tradition, is suffering from
black and white syndrome. And from every
television set “let freedom ring."
Yes, this is the season when blacks,
previously conspicuous by their absence,
are conspicuous by their presence on
nearly every show. The networks are
making a conscious effort to include at
least one black on each program and
commercial. But why must this effort be
conscious? Or if it must be a conscious
effort, why can't it be less obvious and
better executed? And, ultimately, why
must it be necessary to flood the middle
class with black whitewash?
Flashing on the screen is a group of
children, enjoying bowls of their favorite
cereal. As the camera moves from one face
to another, showing the pleasure the
product brings to each one, it focuses on
the one black child. Look, mothers guess
who's coming to breakfast.

Animals at the

zoo:

...They're only human
by Paul Stevick

parrots snapped furiously at little girls’ fingers tapping
against the glass cage-front.

Tired of the same old faces? Want to laugh, cry,
moralize, philosophize, or do you just want a cheap place to
go with a date? Try the Buffalo Zoo.

You can visit your ancestors in the Primate House,
grimace at the snakes, and growl at the bears and lions
smugly, and all for free. For a few coins you can throw fish
to the sea lions, toss marshmellows at the bears, feed peanuts
to the elephants or stuffhot dogs in your mouth.
Going first-class at the zoo requires an extra quarter a
piece to enter the Children’s section, where you can literally
join the herd. All the animals in this area are tame and can
be petted. You can even mingle with some of them in their
iges. A walk-in aviary is also located here, but one should
e alert for acts of nature falling from the sky.
A lesson in living harmoniously is on display in the two
waterfowl ponds. Over a hundred species of ducks, geese and
swans swim, feed and live together in peace. With all these
various animals mingling constantly, it is surprising that
mating time doesn’t produce mixed marriages.
-

Watching the kids
Always a fascinating exhibition at the zoo is the
interaction of animals and people
especially children. In
the Bird House I noticed that the noice emanating from the
area of my knee-caps was attributable to the mass of
-

exhibits
One sharp-eyed prodigy was studying the penguins when
he shouted: THey, look at those two birds falling in love.”
Actually, the two birds were just standing close, staring at
each other. Tt didn’t take long after the youngster’s
announcement; for the gallery in front of the penguin’s
exhibit to be jaijif%d with grinning and winking adults
rubbernecking to see the action that wasn’t happening.
Farther down the gallery, two little girls were lifted over
the railing by their father. They giggled with delight as the

Anteater an ego-booster
For those self-conscious about the size of their
probiscus, the anteater is a reassuring sight. He appears to
have been put together backwards. His tail is large and
bushy, but the other end is an extremely long, tapering
snout that ends in a tiny pair of nostrils and an even smaller
mouth.
No zoo visit is complete without a stop in the Monkey
House. Every type of behavior can be observed here, from a
philosophical chimpanzee to a neurotic orangutan, but the
oddest behavior of all amongst the animals in the zoo is
exhibited by the primates who wear clothes. They are
frequently set in mass motion by an unusual noise or gesture
from one of the other animals. Often, they will shove and
nearly trample one another to be the first arrival at the cage
of another primate who is voicing his opinions on captivity
or just goofing off and ci, ting a ruckus.
Gibbon with stage fright

An example of this quirk of nature is the cry that arose
from the crowd when the White-Haired Gibbon began
swinging around his parallel bars. People all over the gallery
heard the children’s squeals of delight and hurried down to
the Gibbon, apparently suffering from a sudden attack of
stage fright, stopped his performance. The disappointed

people quietly dispersed.
A nearby orangutan attempted to capitalize on his
neighbor’s crowd-gathering ability by extending his arm
through the bars and holding his hand in a perfect beggar’s
appeal. It was to no avail, though, for the glass partition
between the two species of primates prevents any feeding of
the caged animals. It’s also good protection against the
occasional bombardments of the spectators with feces.

exertions to the point where he ran
out of saliva. Undaunted, he
continued to make thd noises of
spitting, even though nothing came
out except his tongue. Bandaging my
wounded ego, I headed for the bear
pits.

‘Sick’ orangutan
The begging orangutan is caged
next door to another of his species
this one displays neurotic symptoms.
He begins by sitting calmly on the
floor at his cage-front. Without
warning he throws up. While the
crowd is recovering from this poor
etiquette, he mechanically laps the
mess off the floor. Most of the
spectators then move queasily along
to the next cage. A few nature lovers
stick around to watch the repeat
performance.
A special sign has been installed in
an attempt to explain the monkey’s
odd behavior. It states that the cause
of the animal’s regurgitation isn’t
known, but that it could be “an
offensive behavior learned in
captivity.” It might be easier on his
stomach if he learned to hold up his
middle finger!
Throughout his zoo-mate’s
performance, “Eddie” the
chimpanzee, sat cross-legged before a
group of peanust on his bench. After
some thoughtful deliberation, he
would pick one out, and pop it into
his mouth. While chewing slowly, he
scanned the faces peering into his
cage. “Eddie’s” face gives one the
impression that he is a very
intelligent chimp but one who just
doesn’t want to get involved.

The hippie exhibit
A small girl’s face suddenly
appeared beside my clipboard. 1
looked down at her from the
window-sill where I was sitting. She
stared for a few moments more
before she asked: “Are you a
hippie?” Perhaps she thought that
was a new exhibit
direct from San
Francisco and I was an escapee.
The floor of his cage is littered
with carrot slices and green
vegetables, but a small Patar Monkey
ignores the food. He apparently

for he had half his body
extended through the wire mesh of
his cage-front and was intently
peering down the gallery.

Kids are ‘small mammals’
A man pushed his way to the
Tailing, aimed a movie camera and
shot about three seconds of film and
left. Beside me, a small girl’s
trance-like infatuation with the seals
was broken by her father handing
her a box of cracker-jacks. She
jumped up and down shouting
“cracker-jacks,” stuffed her mouth
with a fistful and turned her back to
the seals.
At the Lion House, a small boy
entered with his parents on a
Tuesday afternoon when the gallery
was barren of spectators. The boy’s
father reassured him that even
though the animals outnumber him,
they were friendly.
Things were fine until they
reached the pumas. The two animals
awakened and began pacing,
apparently nervous at being watched.
One of the pumas suddenly stretched
himself as if ready to pounce,
realized his helplessness and vented
his fury by snarling fiercely while he
slashed the air with a sideways up of
his paw. The boy screamed in terror
and began to cry. The smiles began

fought off her companion who was

gave me a rather unusual good-bye.
One of the small monkeys ran to the

hesitation at leaving apparently

reached the exit.

animals’ diet. Perhaps the crying

mammal. Some of the cats “eat any
animal they can overpower and kill.”

They stopped their wrestling
momentarily to peer out at me.
“Samson” took advantage of his
campanion’s diverted attention and
strode up behind her to stoutly bite
her posterior. She whirled, striking
him across the head with her
forearm. A battle ensued that ended
with the two fondly embracing each
other. Theyi stepped to the
cage-front still embracing lovingly.
Standing cheek to cheek, each with
an arm draped about the other, they
stared at me the way I had been
watching them. I took the hint and
left them alone.

Polar bear provocation
The polar bear always draws a
pretty good crowd. She lumbers
around her pit, fending off playful
attacks from her cub. Their pond is
dotted with marshmellows thrown
by people trying to get the bear to
fall through the ice. Polar bears are
really not so dumb that they fall
through the ice when they don’t
want to. People, however, are dumb
enough to think that they would.
The bears have adapted to zoo life
by becoming beggars. They’ve
learned that they need only sit up
and wave their paws to produce a
barrage of marshmellows. Each pit
has a different species and each bear
has his own show. So do the
spectators.
The circular pool in the center of
the zoo grounds contains five sea
lions, plus cotton candy holders,
marshmellows, candy wrappers,
twigs and general debris. The spiral
ramp in the middle had a sea lion at
its pinnacle.

�Animals we bored
The big cats are unfortunate
because they inhabit the most barren
cages. Their intelligence leads them
to boredom in captivity. The leopard
is the most notable example of
captivity-created neurosis. She
frequently tears the hair from her
back, leaving a massive spot of
mange.

The pumas often hurl themselves
feet-first against the wall, rebounding
around the cage in an attempt at
exercise.
Cheetahs, the fastest land animal,
capable of speeds up to 60 miles per
hour, are so bored by captivity that
they are virtually impossible to
breed. They sit stoidly, the black line
running from their eyes down their
chin giving the appearance of a tear
drain.
Even when the animals mate, the
zoo environment frequently causes
the parents to abandon or destroy
the litters. This year at the Buffalo
Zoo, young were bom to several of
the animals, but only the Kodiak
Bear adequately cares for her
offspring. The others were either
killed, or are being hand-reared by
zoo officials, due to their parents’
neglect.

Elephants and sex
A sign in the entrance of the
Elephant House warns entrants of
die animals’ occasional desire to
throw things at their audience. A
large pit in the outside yard of the
elephants’ cage is the mating pit.
Elephants have a strange manner of
mating. The process is begun by
digging a huge hole in the ground for
the female to stand in. The male is
too heavy to just take a leap at her
so he sneaks up while she’s standing
in the hole. They are locked in love
like that for about seven days. The
female has a 22-month pregnancy
which culminates in an average birth
of a 200-pound baby.
A part of the zoo rarely seen by
the public is the office of the
Curator. A zebra pelt adorns the wall
behind the Curator’s desk, while a
tiger rug complete with stuffed head,

frozen in a snarl, lies on the floor.
An elephant’s foot, hollowed out
and hardened, serves as a large ash
tray. Pictures of various animals
cover the walls. Statuettes of animals
stand on the desk and the several
bookcases around the room.
Artifacts of tribal natives complete
the furnishings.
Zoo lacks funds
Curator Clayton F. Freiheit sees
the Buffalo Zoo as playing an
important role in educating the
public in the field of conservation.
He’s proud of the additions and the
changes that have taken place since
he became curator.

The new combination Giraffe
House and animal hospital is one of
these accomplishments. Three
giraffes are housed in the modem
structure during the winter. In the
summer, they have a moated area
outside to enjoy. Flamingoes are
placed in the moat to complete the
scene.
Also new is the African Veldt, a
new type of exhibit without bars.
The environment of an African water
hole is recreated and various animals
are free to roam the areas.
Curator Freiheit would like to see
more of this type of exhibit, since it
replaces the naked cages now used.
Limited space poses a problem for
any further exhibits of this type. All
the available space on the zoo
grounds has been taken and new
buildings and exhibits will require
land now part of Delaware Park.
This lack of space has kept the
zoo from exhibiting two very
interesting and popular animals:
phinos and hippos. They require
special quarters, according to Mr.
Freiheit, and even though the
animals are available, the zoo has no
place to house them.
This lack of funds is the basic
cause of the zoo’s bad points. And
financial difficulty is due to the
dependence of the zoo on city
funding. In the future, Curator
Freiheit would like to see the zoo

provide for more adequate facilities
for the animals. Such a method has
proven to be a success at other zoos
in the country.
Hopefully, change for the better
will come soon at the zoo for, like
the people who watch them, even
animals need a decent place to live!

DOG HOUSE NOW

March 13.
University librarians are
currently denied academic
standing and voting privileges in
the Faculty Senate.

Manuel Lopez, associate
librarian, explained that librarians
have been patient since last June,
and there has been too long a
delay.

In a letter to President
Meyerson from the Association of
Librarians of the University, it
was explained that “the Personnel
Policies Committee of the State
University Faculty
Senate
carefully considered the question
of academic rank for librarians on
Feb. 2, 1968. The SUNY Faculty
forwarded its
Senate
recommendation to Chancellor
Gould, who in turn recommended

that the Policies of the Board of
Trustees
be revised to include
librarians as members of the
faculty with academic rank.”
On June 12, 1968 the Board of
Trustees made the revision to
include librarians, associate
librarians, and assistant librarians
as members of the professional
staff with academic rank.
Chancellor Gould, on June 28,
1968, forwarded the information
to the presidents of all SUNY
units and instructed them to take
necessary steps to implement
these revisions.
The letter to President
Meyerson explained that tJ|e
University Association of
Librarians “deplores” the failure
of the Faculty Senate to
implement these changes, and
urged responsible officials to take
immediate action on the issue of
the recognition of librarians,
associate librarians and assistant
librarians as faculty members.

�Relationship to University

clarified

Herbert outlines ROTC program
the recent complete
misunderstanding which has been
generated on this campus about AFROTC.
It began with a letter published in the
Gazette which contained several statements
about AFROTC. These statements involved
the question of how ROTC faculty
members were appointed at UB and
questioned whether ROTC faculty were'
“free agents” to vote their own personal
convictions in the Faculty Senate.
Other questions were raised in articles in
The Spectrum and in one teach-in, tenure
for ROTC faculty was a topic of
discussion. The question of whether or not
the University has had any control or say
so about what we teach in ROTC has been
raised many times. A headline in one issue
of The Spectrum referred to second
lieutenants in the Reserve as draft didgets
because they had requested and had been
granted educational delays to pursue
graduate studies.
At another teach-in, such questions as
about

special facilities for the Department of
Aerospace Studies and payment of
bounties to UB by the Air Force for
second lieutenants produced were raised.
Some ROTC students have attempted to
answer these questions at teach-ins.
Some have succeeded. I myself found a
group of students at a teach-in who seemed
amazed to leam from a representative of
University College that the ROTC faculty
is selected by a University committee and
that the curriculum has been reviewed by
the Dean and by curriculum committees.
On this or any other campus, answers to
questions which have as their genesis the
draft, the war in Vietnam or professional
armies must be based on fact.
To do otherwise at a university would
be unthinkable. It is for that reason that I
prepared the attached fact sheet. Please
read it. It may answer the questions you
now have about AFROTC at the State
University of Buffalo.
John J. Herbert Jr., Colonel, USAF
Professor of Aerospace Studies

University. Nomination letters to Dean'
Welch from me as the department
chairman, and replies from Dean Welch to
me, which will verify this procedure, are on
file in the Department of Aerospace
Studies and may be reviewed by anyone
who wishes to do so.

Q; Do AFROTC faculty have tenure?
A: No, AFROTC members are never
granted tenure at SUNYAB or any other
university hosting AFROTC. They
normally teach at.a school for a period of
three years. This period may be curtailed at
a moments notice by the university for
cause. Paragraph 3.c, of the agreement
made between the State University of New
York at Buffalo and the Secretary of the
Air Force states:
“It is mutually understood and agreed
that no Air Force Officer will be assigned
to the Department of Aerospace Studies
without prior approval of the authorities of
the Institution, and no Air Force member
will be continued on assignment after the
authorities have requested his relief.”
The agreement between the University
of Buffalo and the Air Force which states
this arrangement was signed by Dr. Peter F.
Regan, executive vice president, on 29
September 1967 and is on file in the office
of the dean of University College and in
the Department of Aerospace Studies.
Anyone who wishes to verify this
arrangement by reading that portion of the
agreement may do so at the Department of
Aerospace Studies, room 300, Clark Gym.

Q: How did the AFROTC curriculum at
SUYNAB evolve?
A: Although the agreement between the
Secretary of the Air Force and the
University states that the Secretary will
prescribe the curriculum, the actual
practice is as follows. Several years ago, the
Secretary of the Air Force told the head of
Air University (the Air Force’s
“education” command), to establish course
goals to guide the development of all
AFROTC programs.
With the advice of a board of visitors
made up of civilian educators, the head of
Air University, continually reviews and
establishes broad course goals for each
AFROTC academic year. These course
goals are published and sent to each

outside readings, develop speech topics,
writing assignments or projects, so long as
they support the course goals.
The way I see it, our course goals guide
us the same way reguirements imposed by
professional accrediting agencies law or
medical licensing agencies guide those
curricula here at UB.,

Q: How and by whom is the AFROTC

curriculum monitored at SUNYAB?
A: University College, SUNYAB, monitors
the AFROTC curriculum through me, as
Department Chairman, Aerospace Studies.
Since I became chairman in July 1966, the
dean. University College, and I and at least
two curriculum committees have discussed
course goals, content and methods used to
teach the entire AFROTC curriculum.
Discussions have been conducted in the
Dean’s office and at meetings with
committees held in Hayes Hall. Should the
dean, on the advice of the curriculum
committee, advise me to drop a text,
change a seminar oriented course to a
lecture course, I would do it. University
College is the boss.
As stated previously, the Department of
Aerospace Studies is furnished course goals
by the Air University. These course goals
are posted on a curriculum board in room
302, Clark Gym and are open to review by

anyone. We used these course goals when
we designed our UB curriculum. The
specific curriculum content was
determined by me and my instructors.
When examined in light of the fact that we
are faculty members in the Department
and have been accepted by the Institution
and serve at the pleasure of the president,
our detailed development of what we teach
in our UB Aeorspace Studies courses
indicated that as faculty members of UB
we control the development and
composition of the
UB AFROTC
curriculum.
Q: Are AFROTC faculty members “free
agents” to vote as they see fit on any issue
raised during Faculty Senate meetings?
A: AFROTC faculty members, whose titles
are not qualified, may participate and vote
on Faculty Senate issues according to their
own individual convictions. In the April
25, 1968 Faculty Senate meeting, an
amendment to a resolution which would
allow reinstatement of former students
who had fled the U.S. to avoid serving in
the military or been arrested or convicted
of “draft” evasion was put to a vote on the
Senate floor.
Q: Does the Air Force pay a “bounty” to
SUNYAB for each 2nd Lt produced
through the ROTC program?
A; No

Q: How are faculty members of the
Aerospace Studies Department selected at
SUNYAB?
A: The Air Force forwards nomination
folders which include college transcripts,
service resumes and other data about
prospective Aerospace Studies faculty to
this or any other participating university or
college where vacancies will occur. The
University is fres to approve or disapprove
a nominee for any reason.
At SUNYAB, the University College
Policy Committee reviews the
qualifications of each nominee and, on the
basis of its review, accepts or rejects him
for appointment to the faculty of the
Department of Aerospace Studies. Since I
have been hare, University College has

How we at the University of Buffalo
achieve these course goals is up to me, as
department chairman, and the faculty
member who teaches the course. The
approach to and content of each course
varies from university to university and
from faculty member to faculty member
because we do have academic freedom of
action.

�aumgarten on sports

O. J. Simpson
by Rich Baumgarten

owner of the Buffalo Bills football team, has often
freshly-squeezed orange juice for breakfast. Little could the
wealthy Wilson have ever dreamed that some day the orange juice
would squeeze back.
Well, there is an orange juice who is attempting to squeeze Mr.
Wilson. The orange juice in question is none other than the fabulous
O.J. Simpson, Southern California’s mercurial running halfback.
Simpson, whose football exploits are legendary at Southern Cal, is
hailed by his followers as the greatest collegiate football player of the
decade. For his gridiron prowess and his gate appeal, the Buffalo Bills
made Simpson their number one pick in the professional draft.
But, as often happens in the world of professional sports there are
disagreements between management and labor. Such is the case with
Mr. Wilson and Orange Juice Simpson. It seems that there is a slight
difference of opinion between the employer, Mr. Wilson and the
employee, O.J. Simpson, as to how much the employee, should be

Mr. Wilson, who is a reasonable millionaire, didn’t want to get

Fencing Bulls take honors

The State University of Buffalo
fencing team achieved its tenth
team championship in the North
Atlantic Intercollegiate Fencing
Championships, last weekend in
Rochester. Coach Sid Schwartz's
team posted 52 wins against 14
defeats
the greatest number of
wins ever posted by a winning
team.
The Bulls, led by senior captain
Steve Morris, won the epee class,
19-3. Morris had 11-0 and Bruce
Renner posted 8-3 in the epee to
help clinch the victory.
In sabre class competition,
sophomore Bill Kazer had 8-3 and
Ed Share had 9-2 to take a second
place for the Bulls, 17-5.
Another sophomore. Bill
Vallianos, recorded a 7-4 mark in
the foil, with Larry Singer 9-2.
The Blue and White tied for
second in the foil class, 16-6.

the Buffalo efforts.
The NCAA Fencing

leagues merged.”
Since Floyd Little’s and Steve Spurrier’s contracts were near the
$300,000 range, it’s reasonable to assume that Wilson’s offer was in
the $300,000-400,000 bracket. Certainly enough to tide Simpson over
for a while.
Now Simpson, who is a bright young man of 21 probably looked
at it this way: “If Joe Namath got $400,000, Donnie Anderson
$600,000 and Tommy Nobis $700,000 before the merger, then I
should get $1,000,000 after the merger.” The logic may be faulty, but
the economics sure are fascinating.
At any rate., Simpson, who rewrote the record books, is now
trying to do a little writing in Mr. Wilson’s checkbook. Last reports
had Simpson’s agent, Chuck Barnes, asking for $1.1 million over a
four-year period.
Wilson, who claims that O.J.’s salary demands are unrealistic, adds
that he “doesn’t even enjoy the negotiations anymore.” Furthermore,
it’s believed that some of Simpson’s demands have worn Wilson’s
patience to a frazzle. For instance, in what is described as a “very,
very, very substantial fringe benefit,” Simpson’s agents are reportedly
seeking a $500,000 interest-free loan from Wilson. This loan would be
used by Simpson for investment purpose and would be repaid at a later

date.
It’s this loan demand which seems to have irked Wilson most.
“When I want to borrow money,” says the irate Bills owner, “I go
down to the bank and I pay 7 to 8% interest.”
So far the economics battle between O.J. and Mr. Wilson is a
standoff. Eventually, however, Simpson will capitulate and sign a
Buffalo contract. There isn’t much else he can do. The Canadian
League isn’t about to get involved in a bidding war and besides some
those Canadian cities are even colder than Buffalo. O.J. can likewise
forget about the minor American professional leagues. Public exposure
and player benefits such as pensions just can’t compare to what
Buffalo can offer Simpson.
Yes, Simpson will sign with Buffalo. But before he does, Wilson
maybe $50,000 or so.
will have to up his offer just a bit
And in the meantime, don’t squeeze orange juice in front of Mr.
Ralph Wilson. He just wouldn’t see the humor.

Atty. Gen. John N. Mitchell in
Washington earlier this week on
how his administration can help
control the unrest.
Federal law on the subject,
enacted by the last session of
Congress, requires that action

against student trouble-makers be
initiated by college
administrators.
The President’s statement was
in the nature of moral persuasion
and he confined himself to the
simple vow that the process of
learning will be carried out in an
atmosphere free of violence.
Mr. Nixon made it clear that he
was not advocating repression of
responsible dissent or ignoring the
“very basic problems” that has
caused some of the unrest.
“To do so,” he said, would be
“slothful and dishonest.”
“Students today point to many
wrongs which must be made
right,” the President said, and
then listed a few including:

-A depersonalization of the
educational experience. “Our

institutions

must

reshape

themselves lest this turns to total
alienation,” he said.
-“The internal contradictions
of our communities.”

he could to help bag the F-l 11
program for the Fort Worth
division of General Dynamics
back in the early 1960s.
Congressional advocasy for the

Washington-state-based Boeing
Co. was equally intense, he says.
And besides, he notes, it was a
matter of employment or

unemployment for thousands of
workers in his district.

What’s good for district ..
“A congressman has a dual
responsibility to serve his nation
and to serve the economic
well-being of his district,” the
Texas Democrat says, “So long as
he achieves this in harmony with
the ultimate national good, he’s
fulfilling his job.”
Moreover, thousands of
small-to-medium-sized
corporations especially in the
electronics and computer fields,
scramble for subcontract work on
major defense programs. It is
estimated, for example, that up to
3000 firms might participate in
the proposed new ABM program.
Backing the defense industries
and congressional leaders in
seeking defense programs are the
powerful military lobbies,
including the American Legion,
the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the
Association of the United States

Army, the Air Force Association,
and the Navy League.

Corruption suspected
In fact some lawmakers suspect
that too often “negotiations”
between industry and defense
agencies over specific contracts
are far from above board. One
Monitor reporter, for example,
was told that a major New
England concern had provided
repeated “gratuities” to certain
Defense Department procurement
people and that whatever the
causal pattern, the firm has
become virtually the key supplier
of one type of product.
In many areas of the nation,
the local economy would virtually
collapse if major defense
procurement were to end.
Consider the case of booming
Fort Worth. Retail sales are
hitting record highs, the town has
a look of heady and obvious
prosperity. And yet, four-fifths of
all industrial manufacturing is
defense related.
“A person can’t intelligently
discuss any major social or
political issue in Fort Worth
without considering General
Dynamics or Bell (Helicopter
Company),” says Ralph Estes, a
professor of business at the
University of Texas, Arlington.
“Their role is just that
important.”

School of Management’s aim:
to broaden students’ education
When the School of Business
Administration became the
School of Management, the name
was not the only change. The
School recognized the students’
and faculty’s interest not only in
business enterprise but also in
society as a whole, and now
courses are offered in such areas
of administration as health care,
education, government and public
service agencies.
The School is also continuing
its research programs in these
areas of administration. One
major program studies problems
in health care systems, techniques
and methods. Another project is
studying the business structure of
the black community.
Through a systematic survey,
data is gathered on the nature of

businesses located there, what
share is owned and managed by
black people, and whether the
consumers in the area have a
satisfactory mixture of goods.
Still another project deals with
industrial relations through the
investigation of JET (Job
Education and Training). Several
faculty members are also
participating in the Model Citizen
Program for Buffalo and the
Experimental Program in
Independent Studies.
The main objective of the
entire change is to broaden the
student’s education by
diversifying areas of study and
providing more learning
experience in working on real
problems rather than abstract
ones as presented in a textbook.
The School is also striving to

Revolutionary vandals

The week that was
On week ago a task force of Buffalo police were called to the
campus by a group ofadministrators crowded in a room in Hayes Hall.
Reports circulating on all radio stations in the area Monday night
credited an administrator with saying that police were not *used’
because there were not enough of them.
After police had arrived, Mr. Meyerson told students they must
leave Hayes by 9 p.m. or be subject to arrest. Several minutes later,
'second thoughts’ apparently were the reason the police were told to
leave. While Mr. Meyerson was meeting with the crowd of students
later in the evening, administrators and some faculty members were
already holding discussions which would lead to the next morning’s
restraining order. Students were never consulted about this plan of
action; as lawyers in the administration spent the night drawing up the
order, lawyers in Albany were preparing an argument for a permanent
John Doe injunction.
Thursday some students received summonses with their copies of
the restraining order; no one was told of the plans for a preliminary
injunction, nor of their rights or responsibilities in regard to the

During the last three days, the University has faced
difficulties. Stong emotions have led to very
regrettable actions which threatened the advances we
have jointly made over the past three years.
Faced with the recent
occupation" of Hayes
Hall. University officials had to explore every means that
might bring disruptive activities to an end with minimal
hurt to our academic community. A judicial restraining
serious

“

order offered the best available answer. With such an
order, students and others could be provided with a firm
expression of lawful limits, and would be afforded a fair
and sufficient opportunity to stop unlawful acts.
In consequence. President Meyerson obtained a
restraining order from Surpeme Court Justice Norman
Stiller on March 20. The order directed students and
others to cease and desist from their unlawful
occupation of buildings and unlawful interference with
lawful ingress and egress from University buildings.
Upon presentation of this order, all unlawful,
occupants of Hayes Hall left the building in the morning
of March 20. with no force (internal or external) being
used.
Pursuant to the terms of the restraining order,
Stale University attorneys appeared in court on March
21. for a hearing which might have resulted in a
temporary injunction. This hearing was adjourned at the
request of the attorney representing one of the
respondents The court directed that the hearing be
continued on March 27. and that the original order to
cease and desist should continue in effect.
Peter F. Regan, Executive Vice President

The above statement is the only information the
University administration was able, or willing to release
in regard to the pending injunction hearing. The
statement, although only signed by Dr. Regan, was
in consultation with other local University
officials and approved for release by State University

“John Doe...” summonses, ordering the persons
receiving them to appear at this past Friday’s Supreme
Court hearing.
Administration sources indicate the exact number
of summonses handed out with restraining orders is
unknown and that the only reasons everyone in the
building did not receive one are is that they were not
“easily recognizable,” and that not enough copies could
be duplicated in time.
However, at the hearing of the case Friday
which was adjourned until this Thursday
it was
learned that an accompanying affidavit would be filed,

specifying five “John Doe’s
The affidavit was filed by the University Vice
President for Student Affairs, Richard Siggelkow.
The five were not named as leaders, but merely as
participants. Names were required in addition to the
John Doe injunction, according to an administration
official, because it would strengthen the case for a
temporary injunction. The intended status of the five
was to be no different than any other student
potentially affected by the injunction; legally, however,
their status may be different.
At Friday’s hearing Carmin Putrino, an American
Civil Liberties Union lawyer, told the judge he was asked
to appear in court on behalf ot the student association at
the request of SA President Richard Schwab. Mr.
Putrino wanted to argue for an adjournment.
State Attorney Criery argued that, because Mr.
Putrino did not represent one of the five people
mentioned specifically as respondents, he could not
appear in court.
Mr. Putrino responded by noting that more than
100 individuals had been served with the restraining
order and he was representing all of them, not merely
the five mentioned on the affidavit.
...”

one of the five respondents, he could not address the
court

At that point, Robert Cohen appeared in the
courtroom and Mr. Putrino announced he was
representing him. The judge then heard Mr. Putrino’s

plea for adjournment and granted it.
Mr. Cohen was the only one of the five individuals
mentioned who was served with a “John Doe ...”
summons Thursday. Further, he was told nothing when
he received the notice that might have indicated that his
was a special case. If he had not appeared in court
Friday, a temporary injunction would have gone into
effect.
Dan Benlivogli, Jeff Monkash and “Speed” Powric
three others named on the affidavit all said they
received copies of the restraining order Thursday, but no
summonses. Marilyn Quigley, the other individual named
on Dr. Siggelkow’s affidavit, said she received neither a
copy of the restraining order nor a summons to appear.
The temporary injunction, if approved, would
apply to anyone who disrupted the “orderly processes of
the University” by disrupting buildings or classrooms, or
destroying University property by disobeying criminal
statutes or University regulations or by blocking
pathways or entrances of the University; anyone
violating these guidelines could be liable for a contempt
of court citation.
Mr. Criery argued, however and Judge Catalano
so ruled that the court will only hear testimony from
one of the named parties.
Indications are that Mr. Criery will subsequently
seek a permanent injunction. Local administration
officials, however, deny that any decision has been made
on whether or not to make the temporary injunction
being sought a permanent one.
Indications are that the University administration
will at this time take no criminal action against students;
the injunction is a civil case.

announced that John Galvin,
former banking executive, will be
chairman of a “community
committee” which will serve as a
“central point to bring all

“We can have a community
that will be the envy of our
neighbors or we can have a
community that will be a mess.”
This statement was contained
in a short film stressing the need
for thorough planning and
govern mental and citizen
cooperation in the development
of the State University of
Buffalo’s new Amherst campus.
Moments later. Gov. Nelson
Rockefeller revealed a planner’s
concept he hopes will provide the
basis for the “envy” rather than
the “mess.” The governor revealed
the results of the state Office of
Urban Planning Coordination’s
year-long study at a luncheon in
Rosary Hill College’s Wick Center
Friday.

Numerous consultants, local
governments and governmental
agencies, staffs and bureaus
contributed to the study.
The main impact of the
University’s development will be
confined to a “Buffalo-Amherst
Corridor” which extends “along
the axis between downtown
Buffalo and the new campus.”
“The University-generated
growth should not be widely
dispersed throughout the region.
This would further prevent
improved mass transit for the
region and would require more
new highways,” as well as
“encourage ugliness and the
wasteful use of land," the study

The committee will work with
the Urban Development
Corporation, a public agency set
up by the New York State
Legislature.

The Amherst campus, located

on 1125 acres of land, will lake
six years to build. It will cost over
$600 million. The University will
have more than 50,000 students,
faculty and administrative
personnel by 1975.

The present Main-Bailey
campus “will become one of the

Since last October, when
Egyptian shelling across the Suez
Canal into the occupied Sinai
Peninsula killed 15 Israelis and
wounded 35, the Israelis have
been digging in behind the

deeply. Indeed, too deeply, for
the Egyptians.
Using captured Egyptian
railroad rails, tons of concrete,
and a desert of sand bags, the
Israelis have nearly completed a
chain of bunkers and underground
fortifications that can withstand
direct hits without damage.

end of this month, the

one Western official as “quite

Hanoi’s part gave the allies an

On the strategic rocket issue,
Mr. Nixon has run into
unexpectedly strong political
opposition. When President
Johnson decided last year to build
a "thin” rather than a “thick”

anti-ballistic missile system (that
is, ostensibly as a defense only
against a possible Chinese attack),
the debate was conducted at a
relatively rarefied level in
Washington.
But once ordinary people, in
Boston, Seattle, and Chicago, saw

the sites under construction in
their suburbs, the storm broke.
The danger that they might

Egyptian gunners, waiting until
the sun was at their backs and in

But the Egyptians paid dearly;

It would certainly please the
Soviet hardliners who distrust

more on defense. The best course
would be for Mr. Nixon to delay
the decision until his projected
talks with the Russians have
begun. There is no need for a
rushed decision.

Speaking tour
Israel’s Foreign Minister Abba
Eban, on a speaking tour of the
United States, met with both
Secretary of State William P.
Rogers and President Nixon. Mr.
Eban was assured that the United
States had no intentions of
attempting to “impose” a
settlement on Israel.
The positions of the two
countries, however, were still in

activity.
It now looks as though a
majority in the Democratically
controlled Senate would oppose

less than full agreement on how to
achieve a peaceful settlement. Mr.
Eban emerged from his hour-long
session with the Secretary of State
to repeat the hardening Israeli
view that the only four powers
that should meet are Israel, Egypt,
Jordan and Syria. But Mr. Rogers
said the United States was still
pursuing Big Power talks at the
United Nations.
The core of the Mideast issue,
of course, is establishment of the
new boundaries of the Israeli
state. Israel, facing an internal
political contest in the months
ahead, is divided over how much
of the conquered territory to
keep. The only general agreement
in Israel is that East Jerusalem,
the Golan Heights in Syria and the
Gaza Strip should be annexed.
The Arabs fear that direct
negotiations with Israel would
lead to an Israeli-imposed
settlement. They therefore favor
Big Power talks as a means of
getting more land back than
otherwise possible. Israel, on the
other hand, is confident it can
continue
the occupation
indefinitely. It believes the
Palestinian commandos pose more
of a political threat to the Arab
governments than a military
threat to Israel. Israel’s only
significant worry is a U S .-Soviet
deal.
An Egyptian government
spokesman, between Suez Canal
shellings, chose to express Egypt’s
dilemma in the dispute. “It is not
our understanding that the
cease-fire is going to last for 99
years,” he said, “and it is not our
understanding that this (the canal)
is going to be the frontier of
Israel.”

Cites statistics
During the governor’s speech
on the “Buffalo-Amherst Urban
Impact Study,” he alluded to the
massive construction planned for
the Niagara Frontier in the near
future. The civil rights and
student groups have long
maintained that this huge
construction load will enable
equitable integration of area labor
unions.
The governor cited statistics
confirming this belief, saying:
“This total construction will add
about 5000 construction jobs over
the next several years.”
In his brief conversation with
Mr, Brownslein and Mr. Joseph,
the governor explained that it was
not necessary to halt state-wide
construction planned by the State
University Construction Fund.
In effect, he guaranteed that
money earmarked for the new
campus in Amherst would not be
diverted to other State University
of New York centers because of
the moratorium on all State
University construction in the
Buffalo area.
This comment came one day
after the announcement by
Anthony G. Adinolfi, general
manager of the State Construction
Fund, that all local construction

moratorium originally had been
requested by University Executive

Student occupation of Hayes Hall Wednesday and a
revolution by local politicians requesting President Martin
Meyerson’s resignation stimulated some students to petition
against alleged misrepresentation of student’s aims by what
they termed a “dissident campus minority.”
Signed by more than 1000 debate the issues while others

“We trust that our University

The GPA paper presents several
demands to implement these
principles, such as: Establishment

specifically to assist the entering

professors for his committee,”
The GPA demands a Graduate
Student Review Board composed
of 50% students “to hear and to
decide appeals brought by the
student or faculty member in
relation to an individual's

The students also want 50%
representation on various
committees, including the

Curriculum Committee, Executive
Committee, Admissions and
Financial Aid Committee and
Screening Committee.
A unicameral departmental
legislature “consisting of an equal
representation of faculty and
graduate students” also is called
for in the paper.
In addition to these demands,
GPA insists on immediate action
on several others.
They ask that “Mitchell

In addition, they propose that
a graduate student be established
as a director of graduate

As protest on the nation’s campuses turns to resistance,
and as the politics of confrontation transforms students into
militants, university officials have become more

sophisticated about repressing dissent. Administrators are
suspending individual students, pressing civil and criminal
charges in the courts, and sending police in at early or

The ferment originated at

formation of demands, including
an end to “political harassment”

As things, people and situations swirl into his

Several interesting things happen. Words become

Characters with drives and motives are vaguely

engaged in endless and ridiculous tasks. Love is as
simple as slipping in and out.

Nog is subversive because the novel’s usual
psychological, ethical and moral themes are simply
not there. Time and even the novel itself are
completely arbitrary, and the author, fearful of a
swallowing emptiness, can only keep inventing past,
present and future memories, leaving the reader to
fend for himself in a conditional world that lacks
guidelines or moral directives.

Both authors tend to cast off the excess baggage

manipulation of most best-selling novels.
“I’re-digested messages” are no longer

attempts to make the page and its perceptions a raw

The question, finally, is whether the page is
worth the effort. But the extraordinary thing about
these novels is that they were written at all.

Women cagers end
with 7-3 record
The State University of
Buffalo’s women’s intercollegiate
basketball team completed its
season with a 7-3 record, the most
successful record of the past three
years.
The squad consisted of four
juniors, six sophomores and three
freshmen. It was captained by
Dodie Goldsmith and Marlene
Samuelson.
The team dropped its first two
games to Buffalo State College
and St. Bonaventure but bounced
back with three straight wins. The
Blue and White handily defeated
Niagara, 59-27, and D’Youville,
51-38. The third unlucky
opponent was Buffalo State.
The winning streak was broken
by a powerful Brockport State

team, which won by a score of
38-22.
The Buffalo girls closed their
season with four victories. At
Fredonia State it was 42-29. and
outcome of D’Youville game was
a repeat of the first.
The second Fredonia game
proved to be the thriller of the
season, as the Blue and White
squeaked

will rely on a predominantly
young team in facing a demanding

38-game schedule this season, led
off by a 16-game Southern lour
during spring recess.
Top-notch pitching and solid
defense appear to be the Bulls'
forte this season, since the
graduation of sluggers Brian
Hansen. Rick Wells and Ken
Rutkowski from last season’s
Bulls, who posted a 19-6-1 mark.
Senior Ton. Reetenwald and
junior Stan Jok head a east of
young and hard-throwing
moundsmen, a staff which is
potentially excellent. Reetenwald,
possessing a good curve,
“sneaky-fast” fastball and
excellent control and Jok. last
season’s second leading pitcher
compiling a 4-1 record with 43
whiffs in 33 innings, will be
counted on heavily this year.
Don Jok, Sian’s younger
brother, is a promising sophomore
who is being counted on to be a
starter. Senior Brian Laud, a
two-year letterman, is also in
strong contention for a starting
berth along with junior footballer
Paul Lang, who has one of the
strongest arms on the staff.
Junior Steve Nelson, a
basketballer and soph Bob
Kiernan are able southpaws;
junior Rich Barbera. soph Bob
Prorok and soph Greg Barnes
round out the moundcore.
Solid in field
The Bulls' infield appears to be
solid defensively with veterans
returning at three out of the four
spots. Slugger Jim R May, who
has hit over .350 the previous two
seasons heads a cast of excellent
fielders. May. a first baseman, will

This season will mark the first

The "hot corner” will be held
by junior letterman llnrd-sacker

The outfield uncertainty
should be cleared up during the
Southern tour, Monkarsh noted.
“Whoever shows the best overall
hitting and defensive ability will
earn starting berths. We’ll be able
to better judge their abilities once
we can see how they perform in
game situations.”
The catching spot is in very
good hands this season, despite
the loss of two-time All-American
Brian Hansen. Filling the gap
caused by Hansen’s departure is

one of the best defensive catchers

Project Themis has, after a short-lived life, been
removed physically from the State University of
Buffalo campus. Wednesday afternoon 500 angry
students tore down the construction buildings of
Themis, a Defense Department-supported project.

True, the watchword of the Revolution is
DESTROY, but this implies reasoned destruction.
Since the trial of the “Buffalo Nine." there has been
a continual succession of events which show nothing
but a lack of organization. This must be stopped by
enforcing the rules of the Revolution Game.

The injunction

To the editor:

The injunction being asked for by the University may
pose a serious threat to the individual rights of every
individual in the University community, excepting
administrators.
There seems to be no reason why the University could
not have dropped its interest in an injunction, after the
restraining order was issued. A ‘temporary’ injunction
quite likely lasting for a long period of time or its extreme
(and a real possibility here), the permanent injunction,
effectively makes the State Supreme Court part of the
University executive and imposes a frighteningly coercive
umbrella over all our heads.
Thus aside from the various legal and constitutional
and there are many,
arguments against an injunction
the
violation
of
the
First
and Fourteenth
including
Amendments, to name only two
there are implications of
a radical departure from past executive procedure. No
campus judicial proceedings, for example, preceded the
Student Affairs name-drop affidavit. Last Wednesday’s
situation says the administration-was so tense that the
President’s Emergency Task Force set up at the request of
the Faculty Senate last year
could not be called together
to decide the crucial questions about police action or court
order. Could it be that getting people out of the building
“immediately” with no violence could only have been
accomplished by such obvious violations of University due
process and apparent disregard for some of the students
inside the building?

I’m anxious to know whether or not Tondoleo
Lubitsch would be interested in a pen pal. Our tikes
and dislikes are perhaps not identical, but I think
that if we put our heads together, we can find some
common ground for meaningful exchange. I'm a
licensed necrophiliac and a practicing fetishist.

Successful coalition
The coalition of students, community spokesmen and
University officials now includes the Governor.
Gov. Rockefeller finally unequivocably supported the
demand by various segments of the local community: the
Amherst Campus will be built by an integrated work force
satisfactory to all parties
or it will not be built at all. The
accelerated significantly by student support
pressure
had grown to a point where it was merely a matter of time
before he came out with such a statement, but we’re glad he
finally recognized the urgent need to respond to strong
University and community feelings.
We urge his office to begin now to pressure local political
officials, who might have an intluence on the local labor
unions. It must also be recognized that Buffalo alone does
not have this problem, and a state-wide effort must be
launched to use University construction contracts to break
down the barriers of trade union racism.

Washington Line
from The (iuardian
The only way to keep a perspective on policy
decisions in Washington is to avoid media reports
and keep an eye on actual dollar appropriations. This
is where political rhetoric is replaced by
authoritative allocation of public funds, and where
real priorities are established.

Since the military industrial complex agrees in
general on basic priorities, the media usually focus
on relatively minor controversies involving small
amounts of money and thus divert attention from
basic decision. For example, a great deal of space
was given to Sen. George McGovern’s (D-S.D.) fight
to receive $200,000 to conduct his “study” of
hunger with the implication that liberals won some
sort of victory in having the full amount approved.
In fact, the funds were a small pittance to give
McGovern publicity while denying the hungry
additional funds for food.

wanted to read them.

There are more than 1000 federal programs aimed
at domestic economic and social problems but, like
the “war on poverty,” they exist largely on paper,
with almost no funds beyond those needed to pay
the bureaucracy. In terms of dollars appropriated,
policy decisions have always subsidized the
military-industrial complex.

Commends student body
To the editor:
As a member of the faculty I wish to express my
sincere gratitude to the student body of this
University for an exciting educational experience
during these last two weeks. Particularly worthy of
commendation, in my opinion, are the Committee to
Transform U.B., and its successors, and President
Meyerson, who have shown understanding of the
kind of commitment this University ought to
undertake and initiative in insisting that the issues be
faced. The least contributory element to the
intellectual growth we have enjoyed during this
period has been the faculty.

For these reasons, the debate over the Sentinel House Council for the purpose of introducing the

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;

Another ‘liberation.’And now...

policemen, wearing helmets and carrying
nightsticks, watched at 7 a.m. Thursday as
175 students left Hayes Hall peaceably and
headed back to Norton Hall.
The executive committee of the Faculty
Senate met in an emergency session
yesterday to plan the agenda for a full
Faculty Senate meeting to be held
Monday.

complaint

President Martin Meyerson had
threatened charges of criminal trespass
against students Wednesday evening when
he ordered them to leave the premises by 9
p.m. However, it was learned that he
changed his mind and waited until early
morning at which time he filed the
complain calling for an injunction.
In the complaint. President Meyerson
stated that “various individuals composed
of students . . . acting individually or in
concert, interfered with the orderly
operation of the State University of
Buffalo, destroyed and damaged property
belonging to and owned by the State
University of New York, took possession
of various offices and facilities . . . and
refused to vacate such premises, offices and
facilities when requested to do so,”
He also stated that “numerous requests
have been made by the University
asking them' (students) to
officials
cease and desist from any and all such
unlawful activity . . but such requests
have been ignored and such unlawful
activity continues."
Student action had begun Wednesday
noon shortly after a meeting in Haas
Lounge when several hundred students
went to the THEMIS site and demolished
the temporary sheds and surrounding wire
fences.
Picking up shovels and tearing off
boards to use as weapons the protestors
destroyed the sheds which have been used
to store construction materials for the
building of a plant to conduct research for
the Department of Defense,
Campus police at the scene, however,
stood by and watched as the structures
were torn apart.
The crowds then moved to Hayes Hall
where students entered the building and
demanded to be let into President Martin
Meyerson’s office.
...

.

Newton Carver, parliamentarian of the
Faculty Senate, was at the entrance to the
first-floor administration offices when the
students arrived.
It is uncertain whether he was pushed to
the floor or sat down in front of the door
in an effort to stop the students from
entering the administrative offices.
However, Dr. Carver was carried out the
building’s front entrance and placed on the
steps where he remained seated for several
moments.

A number of student believed he had
been hurt. This was later proven untrue,
however.
As students continued to demand
entrance to the outer chambers of the
president’s office, Dr. Carver forced his
way back into the building where he was
forcibly held back by Harold Segal,
member of the Executive Committee of
the Faculty Senate. Dr. Segal managed to
convince Dr. Carver not to try to reenter
the building and deal with the students.
Campus police then began to arrive as
did more students. Several of the police
entered Hayes through lower level
doorways as others stood in front of the
building watching the students.
Moments later the sound of glass
breaking was heard as one unidentified
student kicked through the glass portion of
the door leading to the administrative
offices.
At this point campus police warned any
“spectators” standing in front of Hayes to
move across the street. Many students
expressed fear that this warning meant
police would begin to forcibly remove
students from the building and that
violence might break out. Nothing of this
nature took place, however.
Richard Siggelkow, vice president for
student affairs then asked students
standing in the lobby of Hayes to back
away. He was followed through the lobby
by several campus police, none of whom
would comment when asked if they were
going to take any action toward the
students.

Offices occupied
After the glass door had been broken,
persons filed into the executive office
chambers and went back to President
Meyerson’s office door where they were
met by a number of administrators. Among
them was Peter Regan, executive vice
president.

The students demanded that President
Meyerson confront them with answers to
their original demands; however, when
informed that Mr. Meyerson was not in the
building the students remained to occupy

the offices.
For the remainder of the afternoon,
students walked through the offices, using

Construction halt granted
Anthony G. Adinolfi, general manager of the State University
construction fund, announced yesterday afternoon that all State University
construction in the Buffalo area has been halted for an indefinite period. The
moratorium includes all work on the Amherst campus, construction of
Project THEMIS and all construction on the State University College campus
on Elmwood Ave.
Representatives of Work for All, a campus group calling for such a
moratorium, said that today’s activities at Rosary Hill College, where
Governor Rockefeller is scheduled to speak, will go on as planned.

At one point, Dr. Siggelkow threatened
students with a ten-minute deadline to
move out or be arrested for trespassing.
One student, Patrick Zahody, said Dr.
Siggelkow had taken his ID card from him
and said “he was going to press charges if I
wasn’t out in ten minutes.”
Threats of this nature were reportedly
made to several students, but none were
arrested or accosted by police.
Dr. Regan was approached by an
unidentified man and asked if he would be
willing to try to meet with students in the
Fillmore Room. However, Dr. Regan
explained that the students probably
would not want to move to a meeting in
the Union at that time.
In the office of Warren Bennis, vice
president for academic development, a
group of students held a discussion with
David Hayes, chairman of the Linguistics
Department who said he had come down
to see what all the noise was.
Debating various campus issues. Dr.
Hayes commented: “The more ruckus that

Students continued to walk through the
offices and throughout the building for
several hours. A few students were
answering the telephones with the remark:
“Good afternoon, Bruce Beyer Hall.”

Police blockade
An atmosphere of tension overtook
Hayes Hall and the surrounding area early
in the evening when Buffalo city police
arrived at the scene. The police had
reportedly gone to the airport where
President Meyerson had arrived from a trip
and escorted him to the University campus.
Buffalo police cars blocked off the Main
Street central entrance to campus and
formed a blockade of cars extending from
that entrance to Winspear Ave.
President Meyerson then entered Hayes
Hall and attempted to talk to students. At
this time he was presented with six
demands. He left the building shortly
thereafter and met with a small group of
students and administrators in Hochstetter
Hall.
In the meantime nearly 100 Buffalo

the fact that expressions of this
sort have been officially adopted
by the Student Association, the

Committee, the Faculty Senate

addition, a similar position has
been taken by the Faculty Senate
of the State University of New

groups within the University and
by many interested community
groups.
It is my conviction that the
proposed program is right, and it
is my hope that it will be put into
effect. It is also my belief that the
plan will become a reality faster if
we can achieve a peaceful and
coordinated drive toward this end,
by all interested parties. The
wisest and safest way to bring
about this peaceful coordination
is through an immediate cessation
of construction activities, coupled
with a determination to bring the
plan into effectiveness forthwith.
Such a temporary moratorium
pending rapid resolution of the
problem, would have very little if
any effect on the eventual speed
of construction on the campus.
The power to control contracts
resides with the Stale University

that the State University

�Wiretap ruling questioned
The Justice
WASHINGTON (UPI)
Department was expected to ask the
Supreme Court to reconsider its decision
restricting government wiretapping. The
department contends the decision could
endanger the national security.
The Supreme Court rarely is asked to
reconsider a decision.
Atty. Gen. John N. Mitchell told a
Senate judiciary subcommittee the decision
might “in some instances involve the very
life of a witness.” He.did not elaborate.
Though Mitchell did not say so, it is
known a chief concern of the government
-

is that blanket disclosures could reveal its
bugging of foreign embassies in
Washington.
The court ruled in the Alderisio case
one week ago the government must allow a
criminal defendant to see all transcripts of
conversations by him acquired through any
type of illegal government listening devices.
The transcripts would have to be provided

even in national security cases and even
though it might be totally irrelevant to the
case.
Rather than do this, the government
might drop its case against a criminal

suspect.
Mitchell admitted the decision “has
been a great disappointment to the
department, obviously. We are hopeful of
filing a petition for rehearing. And we hope
for a different outcome.”
The Justice Department feels that
before eavesdrop material is given the
defense it should be given to a trial judge in
closed chambers for him to consider
Whether it is relevant to the case.
If the court fails to grant the unusual
government request for reconsideration of
its decision, there are 23 other cases
involving wiretapping on the court docket
in which the government could seek
clarification or review of the Adlerisio
decision.

Laird: North must go
WASHINGTON (UP1)
Defense
Secretary Melvin R. Laird testified U.S.
commanders in Vietnam do not believe it
will be possible to reduce American forces
until Hanoi pulls out all its troops.
Laird, who returned from a trip to the
Vietnam war zone, told the Senate Armed
Services committee:
“The presentation given me by the U.S.
Vietnam command staff was based on the
premise that no reduction in U.S.
personnel would be possible in the absence
-

of total withdrawal of North Vietnamese
troops.”
Laird also said the top Marine
commander in Vietnam, Lt. Gen. Robert
Cushman, told him during his trip that it
will take “an additional two years” before
the military situation is under control.
The United States currently has about
540,000 troops in South Vietnam. The
Defense Department estimates that North
Vietnam has infiltrated about 100,000 men
into the South.
Laird appeared at a closed hearing of
the Armed Services Committee. His
testimony was released by the Pentagon .

Critical of past
Laird was critical of past U.S. war
policies and appealed for more money to
bolster South Vietnamese troops, using a
revised military budget
Referring to past policies, he said: “Our
orientation seems to have been more on
operations than on assisting the South
Vietnamese to acquire the means to defend
themselves.”

first

In his statement, Laird referred to
conversations he had on his recent trip
with Cushman, newly appointed deputy
director of the Central Intelligence Agency,
and Army Gen. Richard Stillwell, U.S.
commander of I Corps in the northernmost
provinces of South Vietnam.
“Both Gen. Cushman and Gen. Stillwell
cited significant advances,” Laird said,
“Genl Cushman, however, informed me
that an additional two years would be
required before he could see the situation
as being satisfactorily in hand.
“It is apparent that a successful
anti-infrastructure anti-guerrilla effort will
thus require a substantially higher enemy
rate of attrition than has yet been
realized.”

700-meter dash.”
The runners, they say, are Arab
guerrillas and the swiftest of them may
survive. Some pay with their lives for being
slow.
The "track" is the 700-meter
900-yard
stretch from the dense
undergrowth along the Jordan River in the
Valley of Bet Shean, where guerrillas have
been harassing Israeli kibbutzim, or
farming settlements, to the next patch of
cover.

The guerrillas know they have only a
limited time to plant mines or take pot
shots before Israelis detect them using
tactics so successful they claim 95% of all
attempts to cross the Jordan by guerrillas
end in death, capture or retreat.
As guerrillas break cover Israeli planes,
aware of their position, swoop in to strafe
them. That’s where the race is to the swift
and only to the swift.
Although the guerrilla campaign against
Israel
as far as correspondents here can
-

is not a major threat to the country,
there is growing anger at the attacks.
One source said the farmers at such
kibbutzim as Gesher and Ashdod Yacob
had urged Defense Minister Moshe Dayan
to push back the present Jordan frontier.
This was not feasible, he said, emphasizing
“but we must do something about it."
Dayan and the chief of staff, Lt. Gen.
Chairm Bar-Lev. have also warned that
Arab tactics are irking Israel.

No chance
At a news conference President Nixon
said he did not see any possibility of
bringing home any U.S. troops from
Vietnam “in the foreseeable future.”
In his testimony, Laird warned that the
nation is facing a “potentially dangerous
economic and fiscal situation” and slashed
$2.3 billion from previous defense
appropriations requests. Spending under
Laird’s budget in the year beginning July I
would be reduced $500 million to $78.5
billion.
But Laird asked an $156 million, above
the $1.1 billion previously requested, for
arming the South Vietnamese, The added
funds would buy “armored troop carriers,

Mr. Otepka appealed the case first to a

Cedric Smith, Faculty of Health
Sciences, chairman of the
Committee, commented that
“although all surveys are subject
to inherent limitations, I do
believe that we have an accurate
survey with a high rate of student
response.”
The data compiled by the
Committee was submitted to the
administration office and will be
available in Lockwood Library. A
summary of the Committee’s
report has been released by the
administration.
According to this release the
survey revealed that 7.6% of all
the students were using any type
of drugs, primarily marijuana, and
that 16.6% had at any time in
their lives experimented with
drugs. Of those students living at
home, 3.6% indicated they were
using drugs at the time of the
survey, while 9.2% of those living
at home had at some time
experimented with drugs.

uncertain whether police were still in the
near vicinity of the campus or had actually
left the area.
Administrators and students continued
to meet in Hayes Hall and the result was a
message delivered to President Meyerson
by a small group of students that he
prevent any Buffalo police from coming on
campus at any time and come to Hayes and
discuss the demands in - person with the
students.
President Meyerson complied with the
requests and was escorted back to Hayes
by campus guards where he confronted

Six demands

Students there demanded that President
Meyerson respond to each of the six

demands which include:
an end to all contracting of defense
research on this campus and that all
present projects be stopped. The THEMIS
Project and all work related to it be
discontinued permanently effective

Before Mr, Meyerson was allowed to
answer these demands, students wanted to
know who had called the Buffalo police
and asked if there would be any more
police on campus.
"As far as I know,” Mr. Meyerson
replied, “there will be no police on this
campus tonight.” He further explained that
he had asked the police to leave, but did

not answer as to exactly who had called

them.
It was later learned that police had been
summoned to the scene by vice president
Regan, acting in Mr. Meyerson’s absence.
Concerning defense contracts, Free.
Meyerson said: “I pledge tonight all my
influence to see that this campus is one
that does not take DOD contracts.” He
also said he feels it is time that “this
campus became a leader” in not accepting
any DOD contracts.

•Only influence'
When students wanted to know who has
the authority to discontinue all defense
contracting, President Meyerson said he
had only influence and that the power lies
within the structure of the Faculty Senate.
Students then demanded that President
Meyerson call an emergency meeting of the
Faculty Senate to act on their demands.
They also said at that time that they would
remain in Hayes Hall until some action had
been taken by the Faculty Senate.
Several students offered to help contact
members of the Faculty Senate
numbering about 1100
to insure a
prompt meeting.
Regarding the presence of ROTC on
campus, President Meyerson said he is “not
against abolition of ROTC” but that he
will not use his influence to rid the campus
of it.

When asked about amnesty for
protestors, Mr. Meyerson said that there
was “no reason for not giving amnesty.”
However, he explained that destruction of
fences and other property at the Project
THEMIS site are “criminal acts.”
President Meyerson discussed the
integration of the Amherst workforce by
saying that no construction would take
place until a fully integrated workforce was
achieved.
He did nut answer to a question as to
whether he would participate in a
demonstration today if an order to halt
construction were not received by the
stale.

Meyerson left Hayes Hall, suggesting to
students that they abandon their position

Themis director issues statement
Editor's note: Project Themis, subject
heated controversy, is clarified by
the program j director, Leon Fahri, in the

oj recent

following statement.

The research done under Project Themis
is not classified. It does not pertain directly
to any military situation or requirement,
but deals with some fundamental problems
in normal human physiology. Past research
under another contract with the
Department of Defense has addressed itself
to such obviously non-military questions as
the diagnosis of emphysema or the
respiratory re-adjustment in the newborn.
The question has been raised as to whether
the U.S. government could turn this into a
classified project if deemed warranted by a
breakthrough. The answer is an emphatic
no for several reasons;
The contract under which we operate

There are no restricted areas in the

take place. Members of the research team
include at present, one Swiss, one
Argentinian, one Israeli, one Korean and
one Australian. These are the people who
are the first to know what goes on and it
would obviously be foolish to classify
information already known to all these

people.
Some members of our department have
had their work supported by the
Department of Defense. There has not
been one single classified report and not
one suggestion that our work should
become classified. The Department of

way the direction of our experiments and

A husband and wife team of

Academically, this college
would be involved in every field

regularly.
The plan was presented to

rejection has yet to be decided.

Q: Why can’t something be done about the traffic congestion and
delay! one experiences beesuse of the signs! light at the Main St. exit
from campus?
A: This question was raised about five months ago and since then
Action Line has received other inquiries regarding various aspects of
problems caused by this signal light timing and the placement of the
radar eye. October 14, we wrote to the director of the Board of Safety

of the city of Buffalo requesting a review of the Main St. signal,
suggesting provision be made to allow a greater flow of traffic during
peaV periods. In December they said thaf the problem was referred to
their engineering staff.
In the meantime, the Campus Safety Department was also
attempting to ease some problems relative to this traffic exit. They
erected a sign calling drivers’ attention to the radar eye, instructing
them to trip the signal, and arrangements were also made tc have a
campus policeman, at various times, direct a mote equitable flow of
traffic towards that exit.
This week, the city of Buffalo Safety director said he feels an
adjustment of this signal light is warranted and will be arranged to
alleviate the traffic congestion.

&amp;4 treasurer: Candidates
role

in error over
The treasurer of the Student
Wednesday that
the candidates for his post in
today’s elections have made
inaccurate statements concerning
the Faculty-Student Association's
relation to Student Association
funds.
lairo Estrada said that the four
candidates, in statements printed
in Wednesday’s Spectrum, were
misinformed about FSA’s role in
allocating student funds.
“FSA acts as a bank for the
allocation of student funds,” he
said. “They may not and cannot
disperse any of the funds.
Students have sole control over
their monies.”
Mr. Estrada pointed out that
Sub Board I, which started out as
an agency of FSA, is now under
student jurisdiction and has
complete control over the monies
it allocates. Each of the five
student governments
Student
Association, Graduate Student
Association, Millard Fillmore
College Student Association.
Med-Dent and the Student Bar
Association
decides on its own
how much money to give to the
board. In addition, Mr. Estrada
said, each of the governments has
complete control over whether it
should charge its constituencies
voluntary or mandatory fees, the
amount of the fees and how the
monies are to be dispersed.

Association said

hanking agent, we should find
some way to incorporate the five

student governments and handle
the funds ourselves.”
One problem that would arise
bom such an incorporation, he
said, would be that students
would haw to be 21 years old to
form it.

The Student Association’s
treasurer’s relationship with the
Athletic Review Board was also
misunderstood by one of the
candidates, Mr. Estrada said. He
pointed out that the treasurer has
full voting privileges on the board,
and that he handles financial
transactions for the board.

-

Q; Why are classes “closed” even though the faculty member says
he can still handle additional students?
A: There are two major reasons for this action, according to
Robert Graves, director of the Office of Scheduling and Inventory.
There are inherent physical limitations on the number of students who
can be accommodated in a given classroom, he said, and at certain
times on certain days, it is practically impossible to find vacant
classrooms on the campus to which a class might be moved. Secondly,
for pedagogical reasons, a department may establish an absolute upper
limit on the size of a particular class, to insure an effective
student-teacher relationship. For example, the English Department has
maintained upper limit of 22 in all freshmen English sections thi£
semester.

Q: Where can I get information regarding student discount cards?
A: Students interested in obtaining discount cards should see
Ellen Price, the National Student Association coordinator, in room
205, Norton Hall. She has card applications and lists of businesses and
stores offering discounts for card holders.

Q: Why does Food Service offer fresh fruit daily in the Tower
cafeteria but not daily for Goodyear residents?
A; Mildred Oerme, Food Service dietician, informed us that
menus are identical in both cafeterias. There is a fresh fruit served in
some form every day but the form in which it is served varies, i.e., for
breakfast, for dinner dessert, etc.
Q: When will the campus phones in Norton Hall be repaired, and
how does one go about getting additional ones installed? They were

ripped out and damaged about a week or 10 days ago.
A: Robert Henderson, business manager of Norton Hall, said:
“Campus telephones are available at four corridor locations in Norton
Hall. When vandalism to these phones is noticed by Norton Hall staff
or reported by concerned students, the telephone company is
requested to make the necessary repairs. Since continued vandalism is
a distinct inconvenience and an additional expense, the Norton Hall
staff would appreciate any suggestions that might reduce this problem.
“Concerning the question of additional campus phones, the
Norton Hall staff has investigated the possibility of additional phones
on the ground and first floors of Norton Hall since the demand for
campus phones is obviously heavy. However, the cost per month per
line is not possible in the present Norton Hall budget.”

Q: Why is calculus required in the Psychology Department
especially in light of reforms elsewhere on the campus relative to basic
requirements?

-

14 representatives
The board is made up of 14
representatives of the five student
governments, he said, plus one
representative of FSA.
Mr. Estrada pointed out two
problems that do exist concerning
FSA: “About seven years ago.
when Sub Board’s money was
controlled by FSA. they took the
surplus and used it to purchase

land in Amherst without student
consultation.” Student funds are
now used to pay the taxes on the
land, which is not being used for
any purposes.
The second problem concerns
the present status of the
University Bookstore, the Food
Service and vending machines on
campus.
Mr. Estrada said:
“Student money was used to set
these up before we had full
control over our funds. Now FSA
owes us that money
but it’s all
tied up in inventory and

•equipment.”
There are some changes
presently being made, he said,

“The automatic shift of student

Q: The residence halls were opened earlier than originally
scheduled to accommodate students during the Christmas recess to
prepare for exams, etc. However, there was no AUenhurst bus service
and the only Food Service available was on the main floor in Norton.
Why wasn’t Food Service provided for students under contract or at
least additional food locations opened to alleviate the excessively
overcrowded conditions at Norton?
A: Housing and board contracts stipulate that such services shall
be provided for 16 weeks per semester. Opening the residence halls
during the recess period was an extra courtesy for the students, in
excess of time covered in the contract. The cost of opening additional
AUenhurst residents was

Austin retracts statement
as campaigning ends today
Elections for nine Student
Association officers and
coordinators enter their final day
today, with the results to be
announced tonight at 8:30 p.m.
Campaigning did not end
without controversy. Bill Austin,
independent candidate for
president, retracted a statement
he made Wednesday after Bob
Mattern, presidential candidate of
the New School party,
complained to the Elections
Committee about parts of the
statement.
In the statement, Mr. Mattern

charged with complicity with
the editors of The Spectrum, who
endorsed him in a Wednesday
editorial.
Mr. Mattern’s complaint before
the Elections Committee charged:
“This type of libelous, personal
vendetta by opposing candidates
is a clear* attack on the freedom
and independence of the student
press; the accusations of
complicity and irresponsibility
have reduced the campaigns of the
supporters of these accusations to

Oldies but goodies

by Alfred Dragone
Spectrum Staff Reporter

I hate Robert Nigro. Well, I
don’t hate him really, but I am
extremely envious. By his press
releases I learned that he is a
senior English major. So am I
and frankly, I am jealous. If he
were a Physics major, I could
consider him intellectually
inferior and I could feel less
envious and morally superior. My
ego will not let me like him, I can
only envy his talent. He has put
together a quick, tuneful and non
campy program from a rather

bosoms it is evident that great
care was exersized to create
exactly, the mood in which the
musical was originally produced.
Mr. Nigro has, through his
direction, endowed the

Ridiculous, according to, let’s
say, the creators of Cabaret and
other tawdry productions. These
are, however, the same dramatic
“tricks” that Shakespeare often
used. We are no more
sophisticated than
the
Elizabethans. They did not believe
all of the disguises in As You Like
It. To many of them it was an
escape. We need that kind of
escapism now just as the
Depression audiences needed
them. Perhaps this is one of the
reasons that it took place on an
ocean liner. Perhaps 1 am carrying
the metaphor too far, but the S.S.
America just may be the modern
counterpart of the forest of
Arden.
But let these rumblings of a
mediocre English major cease. I
entered the Fillmore Room
expecting to see an ameteur

seeing a sophisticated, very
preofesional Broadway musical.

�Minority enrollment'
may be increased
A greater percentage of black
and other minority group students
may be admitted to the State
University of Buffalo for the
academic year 1969-70 it was
learned recently as the result of
one of nine demands presented to
the administration by the Black
Student Union.
Informed sources have also
acknowledged the fact that a
response of President Meyerson to
this demand has been that as
many as 450 minority group
students may be admitted.
The issue which is now raising
the most question is what the
source of funds will be for these
students
many of whom will
need financial aid. It was recently
reported by the Office of
Financial Aid that Federal aid
may be sharply cut for the
academic year 1969-70.
No definite word on the
curtailment of Federal funds has
been received, however such a cut
would effect students
participating in National Defense
Loans, Work-Study Program and
Educational Opportunity Grants.
A report on the financial
aspects of a program to admit a
large number of minority group
students with financial assistance
is being prepared.
-

groups had a part

in arriving at the
target figure of 450 and that
admission of these students to the
freshman class “requires effective
interaction by a number of these
groups.”
Some of the prospective
students would enroll through the
regular admissions policy. Others
would most likely be enrolled in
programs such as SEEK, Upward
ikmnd and EP1S.

“Institutional chains”
Warren Bennis, vice president
for academic development
explained that the program has
not been ratified by the
appropriate

University-wide

committee

and has not been
presented to the Faculty Senate.

However, he said that through
a program such as this the
University is responding to a need
“to help people who for so many
years have been kept in
institutional chains.”

He termed the issue “delicate”
because of the fact that these
students should be treated in a
special way, however not
segregated or treated as inferiors.
A committee has been formed
to investigate ways of securing
funds both privately and
to deal with the

THE SPECTRUM

3248 Main St.

At this time, the construction unions in Buffalo ami elsewhere have highly restricted membership, eliminating all minority groups, including many white ethnic groups. The SUNY at Buffalo
building project for the new Amherst campus, when adding housing, roads, stores, etc., will amount
to a SIVi-billion project. The demand for labor will cause union workers to come in from all
over the nation, as the number of construction workers from Buffalo is not sufficient for the manpower needs. Because of this project, there will be sufficient work in our area for all white workers
now in unions for at least the next ten years. A five-year effort to break the white color line in
the trade unions of Buffalo has met with little success. What little progress has been made is
threatened with extinction at this very moment.
State Assemblyman Arthur Eve submitted a bill to the State Assembly to set up a $3-million
construction school that includes on-the-job training programs for unskilled and under-employed
persons of low income to lesson unemployment and under-employment. The bill is in imminent
danger of being overwhelmed by union-sponsored opposition in the Stale Assembly. Despite the
pleas of every civil rights organization in Buffalo, Nelson A. Rockefeller remains impervious to
the situation.
Now at this time workers from the Operating Engineers Union are involved in clearing
operations on the Amherst campus site. The Union has a membership of 1200 workers NOT
ONE of them is a non-white. Despite requests by the SUNYAB Administration, the SUNY Central
Administration in Albany, the State University Construction Fund has not called for a construction
moratorium WORK CONTINUES.
This construction must be stopped now if the campaign for an integrated work force on the
Amherst campus is to have any meaning at all. If the State won’t stop construction, we, as concerned students, must stop it. Work For All (WFA I, a student organization working in conjunction

on all construction work on the new campus Friday morning. March 21, by 9:57 a.m. This mor

If this deadline is not met, it is up to us. as students, to «o out to Rosary Hill 'pile; :e to let

has the support of every civil rights organization in Buffalo: NAACP. BUILD, CAUSE, I CAN,
CCHR, David Collins. Director of PROJECT JUSTICE, the Black Development Foundation, and
the Select Committee on Equal Opportunity (SUNYAB).
But the students of this University can no longer leave it just to outside organizations to do
our work for us. Can we continue to allow the State to quietly continue construction work on our
new campus while it plays games with the
welfare of thousands of poor people in Buffalo? To
prove that we do stand totally behind our convictions, we must enforce our March 21 deadline.

The fledging ABA has
established a million dollar kitty,
with each club contributing an
equal share for the express
purpose of getting the Bruin

him the unheardof privilege of
selecting the team he wants to
play for. Presumably, if he goes to
the ABA, he will wind up playing
Lou A Icindor
for the New York Nets because he
has indicated a desire to play in New York.
The odds are, however, that he will join the prosperous and
established NBA because of the prestige and higher level of
competition. He will either play for the Milwaukee Bucks (whose
owner intends to set up a public trust to entice Lew to spend his
winters in Wisconsin) or the Phoenix Suns. It all depends on which last
place team wins the coin toss that decides who will have the first-draft
choice.
What interests me more about Aldndor is not which league he’ll
play in, but his own feelings about the future.
Aldndor, besides being an exceptional athlete, happens to be a
very intelligent and informed person.
He was one of the most prominent black athletes involved in
Professor Harry Edward’s proposed black boycott of the Olympic
Games. When the boycott failed to materialize, Aldndor turned down
a chance to go to Mexico City with the explanation that it would
interfere with his studies.
With all this as background. I’m left with the strange feeling,
which I can’t substantiate, that Aldndor will decide to sit out for a
year and not go directly into professional backetball.
I wonder how it feels to be a 7 foot, 1 inch object known for its
basketball ability rather than to be recognized as a man. Aldndor, who
is a very sensitive individual, will probably have to reconcile this
situation within himself before he goes to the pros.

Concert review

Charity drive

‘Hello People’
troupe of People players lined up
in firing squad formation and all
but one of the performers shot off
his instrument. Following this
little vignette, they marched into
“Anthem,” a song dealing with
draft resistance, homosexuality,
and drugs.
Just as the one player dissented
in the skit, the singers sang of
members of society who were
going to prison to keep their
consciences free.

by James Brennan
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Contrasts of musical themes,
word pictures, and comedy
theatrics made the Hello People
concert last Saturday an evening
of rare pop group entertainment.
Many of the commercial pop
groups of today are just products
of Madison Avenue record
companies. They have minimal or
average musical abilities and their
attitudes at concerts are insulting
to the audience. The Turtles are
the most recent example of this
teenybopper type of pop group.
After seeing the Hello People,
my faith in pop groups has been
restored. Their concert was a
rarity due to the fact that they,
unlike many of the current pop
groups, are talented musicians.
As instrumentalists, the Hello
People strive to present near
perfect musical sounds. A good
indicator of their ability as
musicians is the brand of
instrument case they carry.
Wry One, the People’s flutist,
sax man, and clarinetist carries a
Selmer French clarinet case with a
Manhatten School of Music
sticker on it. Selmer is one of the
world’s best brands of clarinets.
Hello People’s musical
excellence is not judged by their
music cases though, but by their
performance. Their themes touch
on a great many different genres
and musical stylings.
One very delightful variation,
the People pulled off quite
smoothly, was the transformation
of Beethoven’s “Fur Elise” into a
pop classical piece. This bopping
Beethoven melody was featured in
“Everything’s Better,” a
composition written by one of the
group.

Biblical rock
Another instrumental, (not yet
named), displayed the Hello
People’s versatility at a harsher
beat sound. The best description
of this style is biblical rock with a
flourish of rolling drum cadenzas.
In this number the contrasts of
their musical themes appeared
strongest. At times the pounding
drums diminished to a soft

Gestured dissent
The way the Hello People put
their message of social dissent
across was very subtle. An excerpt
from their Anthem dealing with
homosexuality goes . . . “My
master is sleeping and if 1 can’t
live with him, I can’t be a man."
Studying at the Etienne Des
Creu School of Patomime in New

Wry one
Hello person

after-dinner music style, and at
other times the soft flute was
drown out by whining guitars.
Of all the performers in the
group, Wry One the flutist stood
out as the most memorable. His
haunting flute echoed all about
the gym in “Dream of
Tomorrow.” And again the notes
dripped clear and sparkling in
“Paris in the Paris.”
The words of these songs
evoked vivid images in the mind.
Impressionistic pictures of the
rain spattering on Paris sidewalks
fleeted by as the Hello People’s
words watched a lover sadly go to
battle.
Vivid contrasts

In “Come See Me” these words
drew sharp contrasts as the
“velvet evening” met with “the
cavern of my tomb” creating
striking images in this long song of

On being carried off

Ring dem bells

To the editor.

The Butler bells, dangling in the pinnacle atop “Beyer
Hall”, rang all night Wednesday. 150 helmeted Buffalo

ringing, again. The clock remained stuck at twelve, its bells
ringing uncontrollably, unable to move its hands, not
knowing whether it was noon or midnight, darkness or day.
That’s how we feel, like that big weatherbeaten
clockface, looking with that same blank inscrutability in all
four directions.
The cops finally came. Didn’t prove too much. We knew
that if we pushed hard enough, the blueshirts would
eventually appear. The response to the “demands” never
came. We knew it most likely never could.
Actions speak louder than words; the destruction of
THEMIS; the smashing of a window; a building renamed;
panic in a crowded room; the block-long line of police; the
police escort of a president; the issuance of a court order . .

I was carried bodily out of Hayes Hall on the
19th by the “liberators,” and the incident has raised
a number of questions.
The first and most obvious of them is; What was
I doing there in the first place? Where I was was in

of the president and his advisors, and I was there
because that door was obviously the immediate
target of violent and unlawful acts on the part of
some students. I had no idea why the students
wanted to get through that door, and no idea why
the people on the other side thought they should not
get through. But however silly the issue, violence and
destruction could only make it worse, and it seemed

It has been suggested that I was being foolhardy

many of them this was their first
experience with police harassment
and courtroom injustice,”
The verdict of the Buffalo Nine
trial was announced Feb. 26 and
although three of the defendants,
received a hung jury, Bruce Beyer
was convicted of two charges of
assaulting federal officials. Mr.
Beyer now' faces a possible six
year prison sentence, and a
statement by the CRC claims:
“Massive support will lessen
Bruce’s sentence and show the
government that ‘we have just
begun to fight’.. . Our media is in

streets!”
Throughout this week rallies
have been held nightly in Haas
Lounge. At the fust meeting
Sunday Mr. Dominick read a
Buffalo Evening News editorial,
“Trial by Picket Line.” He
severely criticized the editor’s
inference that the students who
packed the courtroom interfered
with the need for the jurors “to
decide impartially.”
Mr. Dominick claimed: “An
ideal juror for the government is a
vegetable
one who does what
he’s told
We know exactly
what would have happened if we
weren’t down there,” and he
pointed to Martin Sostre’s case
where there was no massive
mobilization and the sentence was
41 years.
The CRC has also announced
support for “Work for All,” a
student group that is pressuring
for an integrated work force on
the Amherst campus. The group
has announced that unless
construction on the site is
officially halted by 9:57 a.m.
Friday
they intend
to
demonstrate there at that time.
In addition, Gov. Rockefeller
will be speaking at Rosary Hill
College at 12:30 p.m. Friday
about the effect of the new
campus on the Amherst
community. Many students are
hoping that he will use this
opportunity to take a formal
stand on the issue of an integrated
work force.
Members of CRC interpret

by Sue Bachmann
News Editor

Students will demonstrate today against two issues of
far-reaching political significance: the sentencing of Bruce
Beyer of the Buffalo Nine and the start of campus
construction for Project THEMIS.
Issuing a call to students and
faculty to boycott classes today,
the Community For Real Change
has organized a mass
demonstration at the Federal
Court House to support Bruce
Beyer. After the sentencing,
students are expected to mobilize
back on campus so that the
emotions stimulated at the Court
can be channeled against the
construction of THEMIS, a
research project sponsored by the
Defense Department to study
“the performance of man in the
sea to meet Navy needs.”
Paul Dominick, a member of
CRC and Youth Against War and

Fascism, explained that “even
conservative members of the
faculty are against this project
because of the clause” permitting
the Defense Department to call on
any of the project workers who
receive grants to work in any area
of government research.
The clause also allows the
Defense Department to make
their research secret whenever
they decide it is necessary. Mr.
Dominick added that “it’s up to
us to stop them physically,” when
they start construction within the
fenced-off area of the campus
near the medical buildings.

The CRC also opposes Project
THEMIS because it is being
constructed by the Building Trade
Unions, the same work force that
is to construct the Amherst
campus. Recently University
groups have been demanding a
halt in construction on the new
campus until the force is racially
integrated, but today the union
will begin construction on this
campus.
Mr. Dominick stressed that
“even after a week of teach-ins,
Meyerson’s response is still
non-response and the same
segregated work force that all of
the organizations have opposed
will begin construction on this

campus.”

“It’s almost like a dare,” he
continued. “It’s like they’re
saying: We’ve ignored you for a
week and now we are going to
continue with our racist
construction.”

Political education
Referring to the Buffalo Nine
trial, the demands and the
teach-ins, Mr. Dominick
remarked: ‘This whole period has
been a real political education
especially for the kids who usually
aren’t politically involved. For

activities?

Bill Austin

New Dimension

Challenge

Mr. Austin: This University has gone through a very
trying period over the last few weeks, not because of

administration disregard for student attitudes, but

because students have disregarded themselves.
It is very easy to
sit before a typewriter or a reporter
and run off at the
mouth about what
■
&amp;
should have been
done two weeks ago
■
or what should be

done tomorrow. The
question that should
be addressed to presidential candidates
and the student body
as a whole is: Are
you willing to act On
the problems which
Hr face the University
and the community.
To sit here and philosophically discuss participatory
democracy in Polity or a bicameral legislature, or what
are my programs for the University, institutional racism,
the Amherst Campus, is useless, irrelevant even, if the
student body is going to continue to drift in a state of
limbo.
“

Mr. Chiswell: It was not the position of the
president to interfere with the spontaneous nature of the
events which occurred during the last two weeks. I, as
President of the Student Association, would have been
an observer, not a
director of activities,

ready to offer

appoint student liaisons to the Buffalo Common Council, Erie County
Legislature, New York State Legislature, and the local
Board of Trustees to keep them informed of the true
picture of student activities. By giving the legislators a
person they can personally call on for first-hand
information will help University-community relations.

Miss Coleman: As president, I would have acted
with authority, tact and understanding during the
activities of the past two weeks. When the first list of
demands were presented, I would have called a Polity
meeting.' There all
points of view might
have been aired and
acted upon without

t

establishing a

new

group which lacked
authority to act as a
representative body.

The formation of the
Committee to Transform U.B. resulted in
a power struggle with
the Student Association. This is unforH tunate since both
kI groups were conI cemed with improving the University
and wasted very precious energy in a senseless struggle
for power.
Had the Polity called for a teach-in, a steering
committee of interested students would have been
formed, under the Student Association, to plan and
direct the activities of the teach-in. This steering
committee would have solicited the support and
participation of the entire University community. This
solicitation would have been facilitated by the influence
of the Student Association as a representative body of
ten thousand undergraduates.
As president, I would have exerted all my influence
for change aimed at remedying problem areas in the
University. I would not, however, support mere
destruction for destruction’s sake.
I believe that we students have the ability to think
for ourselves, to act responsibly in tense and emotional
situations, and that the “silent majority” will come
forward and air their views when the occasion warrants.
These abilities have been exhibited by the student body
during the past two weeks.

PF

The Spectrum: Right now, what does this University need most?
Mr. Austin: Presidential candidates are not the ones
who will come up with all the answers, solutions and
work. If this is what the student body expects of them,
it’s in for a rude shock.
The presidency of the student association is a
worthless position as long as the student body is in its
inactive state. Administrators and administrations
cannot do the work of running this University efficiently
if students refuse to do their part.

Mr. Chiswell; Our most basic need is for
communications. Students must be made aware of what
is happening on their campus before they can attempt to
change things. For whatever reasons, the present leaders
have failed to use the present system of government as a
vehicle for change. Many of the demands voiced during
the past several weeks could have been brought up in the
Polity and the influence of the Student Association
could have been used to get positive action from the
administration. The issues, the programs, the problems
of this campus must reach the ears of the students
directly concerned with them.

Miss Coleman:Right now, what this University
needs most is participation and trust. There has long
been a cry of “student apathy” which 1 feel is not really
appropriate. Students are interested in things which
concern them directly. People don’t participate because
the existent structures aren’t geared for participation on
a “grass-roots” level. To partially remedy this, I propose
that Polity committees be organized. These committees
would be composed of students interested in a particular
issue presented to the Polity (eg., should R.O.T.C. be
abolished?). This temporary committee would be
chaired by the coordinator in whose realm the question
falls. Using the expertise of the coordinator, the
committee will supply the Polity with facts and
recommendations concerning the issue. In this way,
students concerned with a specific problem can work to
remedy that problem directly. The Polity is an attempt
at “grass-roots” participation which with good
leadership, can be highly successful.
' The second thing I feel the University neeas is trust.
Students don’t trust administrators, faculty or even
other students. The same is true for faculty, staff and
administration. For the greatest possible educational
experience the University should function as a
community. To create an atmosphere of community a
basic trust is imperative. Better communication among
the various segments of the University would help create
this trust as would participation by all members of the
University in University governance.

as long as the administration is doing something, though
not enough, to solve University and community
problems, and the students are doing next to nothing at

Student demands on an administration it already
considers too authoritarian is just asking for more Hayes
Hall administration, thus more authoritarianism.

students. The major part of university activity should
therefore originate with that student body. It would be

individual students and teachers set up their own
teach-ins. The president should have provided an
organization for the teach-ins through the Student

what does this University need most?

Mr. Lipman: The most pressing need of this
university is a system which will awaken the students to
the problems of the society and encourage them to act
to effect their solutions. That is what is meant by the
phrase “making one’s education relevant to one’s life.”
Universities should not be factories which produce spare
parts for American industry. The college graduates
should be the most aware and interested persons in
society, yet in many cases they are the least.
Speaking in specifics this requires many more
endeavors such as College A. The abolition of the
marking scale would make it easier for students to
become involved in outside activities. The new four
course load is only a small step in the right direction.
Students should be encouraged to question the system,

to find its faults and correct them. Instead, the present
structure forces students to accept the system with its
faults and often penalizes them for attempting to correct
them.

Mr. Mattern: I shall list the need I feel to be most
important;
a. Student control of student monies. The Sub
boards should be removed from Faculty. Student
Association control, and student monies should not
support privileged facilities (i.e. Faculty Club) not open
the university as a whole.
b. Establishment of a co-op bookstore, run by
faculty and students, which can be later moved to the
new campus.
c. Increased admissions of disadvantaged students,
with financial support (see No.5).
d. Establishment of advisement facilities run by
students. The faculty and administration have proven
incompetent in this area.
e. Establishment of a permanent communications
center, unbiased and Student Association funded.
f. Facilities on or near campus for mass meetings.
g. Expanded independent-study programs (like
U.C.B.B.) for groups or individuals. These should be
self-evaluative.
h. Student organized tutorial projects, co-ordinated
by faculty, in which students will tutor students, and
receive credit.
i. Establishment of a university-wide unicameral

Mr. Scott: The major problem in the University
the lack of communication between the
students themselves, running parallel to student and
student government. Students at this University are
generally from four different backgrounds: Native
Buffalonians, New York Jews, Black People and
Mid-State Christians. These groups have the difficulty of
seeing eye to eye, where in actuality they have the same
eyes. The special, polity-type meetings, held following
the Buffalo Nine incident, illustrated the viewpoints of
the different factions. This was a good attempt at
bridging the communications gap. The mere fact that
there was such a large turnout from all student factions
shows that the students are retreating from their'
traditional apathetic position. At the present there are
great possibilities for our school due to this shift.

legislature.

The Spectnun: What should be the role of students in the decision-making
processes of the University?

Mr. Lipman: The students should be placed on an
equal level with the faculty in decision making processes,
with the administration subservient to both. For too
long the student has indeed been a “nigger.” He is often
at the mercy of authoritarian instructors. He is subject
to rules established by the administration with little
regard-dor students’ opinions.

Mr. Mattern: The students should accept nothing
less than parity with faculty in all decision-making
concerning themselves. I believe a unicameral structure
should exist, incorporating students, faculty and staff;

the official voice to the community and to reflect the
attitudes and enact the decisions of the university-wide

that the student receives at this University; thus the

not beyond the realm of impossibility that students
could act as a “think tank” bringing forth new and

other cases. Even the community could be used as an

There is an endless spectrum for student

student body has to either join in on the movement to
rebuild the University and our society or move aside and

Mr. Chiswell: University-wide governance could be
very beneficial to the over-all student-faculty
relationship. The structure of the government, however,
can not usurp the individual autonomy of the present
student governments. Each government must maintain
its own body of students.
A representative government dealing with
University-wide problems, such as tenure, planning and
curriculum, would have delegates from the five student
governments and the Faculty-Senate. Specific authority
would be given to this body to deal with campus wide
questions. By bringing all segments of the campus into
one assembly, the needs and demands of the University
could be known to all.
I will ask for continued support of these groups in
the committee already established to develop several
proposals. Once these structures have been formulated,
they will be introduced for public hearings and then
submitted for a University referendum.

Mr. Chiswell; The fact that it exists can not be

students to voice the need for change. It is only when
the eyes of the majority of people can be opened to
racism that it will be solved.

Miss Coleman: If elected, I will take action to
establish a structure for University governance; not a

University governance. Presently, if a resolution is acted
upon by “enough” committees and representative
groups it comes to be identified as University policy.
With representatives from other segments of the
University, I will work on developing a proposal
incorporating ideas from many sources. This proposal
will be presented to the University for general approval.
Personally, I feel that the existent governing bodies
should be maintained, but revised to more effectively
represent their constituency. What is desperately needed
is a superstructure composed of students, faculty and
staff which would be kept informed of the activities of
all University-wide committees, decide whether or not
an issue is of University-wide magnitude, discuss
University-wide issues, and report back to their
constituencies.
The individual governing bodies would widely
publicize the issue and then vote. Each governing body
would have a fraction of the total University vote. For
example, the Student Association might have seven of a
total of 20 votes. If in a referendum the vote were 4000
“yes” and 3000 “no,” the vote of the Student
Association would be four “yes” and three “no.” The
results of all the voting would be tabulated and a
University-wide decision made.

Miss Coleman: Institutional Racism is the built-in
faults of a system which cause it to discriminate against
certain of its members.
Some of the more blatant instances of institutional
racism on this campus are in the areas of admissions,
course content, grading and University ties with
discriminatory groups.
In the area of admissions all students are judged by
tests geared to white middle class values. Since members
of minority groups often fail to meet this criterion,
many are turned away while others are admitted in
special programs such as Epis. The student then has the
stigma of being in a special program. Once in the
University, the minority group finds itself judged by
standards alien to them. Grading is an example of this
since it measures all acquisition of “knowledge” by
white middle class criteria, while failing to accept that
persons with different backgrounds may respond
differently to the same stimulus.
Course content often offers little concerning the
contributions that minority groups have made and are
capable of making to our society, which is again racist.
University association with discriminatory
companies was indicated in the originally planned
construction force for the new campus. Hopefully, a
fully integrated work force for the Amherst campus will
be a first step toward the abolition of institutional
racism in our University.

at this school. The proposed bicameral
legislature provides the students with a means to control
his univerity environment. This bicameral legislature
should, however, be run by the individual faculties, for
each faculty has its own needs, independent of the other
faculties; e.g., an engineer needs five years to graduate
whereas another undergraduate needs only four, thus
universal requirements are foolish. This would promote
greater communication between faculty and student and

organizations.
I also feel students should be incorporated in
decisions regarding tenure, hiring and firing, on a parity
basis. Applicants would be informed that students would
be able to review dossiers, and could act accordingly. I
believe that tenure should be abolished in preference of
a regular review, by faculty and students.

The Spectrum: If elected, what action will you take, if any, to establish a new
structure for University governance?
Mr. Lipman: Before stating what action should be
taken to install a new government I should of course
first state what form that government should take. The
new government would consist of two bodies. One
would be an enlarged faculty senate including not only
full professors but also associate and assistant professors,
instructors, and teaching assistants. The other body
would be comprised of any and all interested students.
Each body would be empowered to take action on any
university wide issue. An issue could be brought before
the body by petition of two per cent of either group.
Each body would carry veto power over the other. The
decisions of this government would be final and not
subject to any review by the administration.
The establishment of this government would begin
with a student referendum to approve the plan or some
variation of it. Upon student approval the plan would be
presented to the faculty and administration with a
demand for immediate enaction. If necessary a student
strike would be used, as it is the only present weapon
available. Slaves cannot negotiate for their freedom.

officers, he would not be able to. If you asked the same
student to name the president of the United States and
three cabinet officers, he would have no problem. To
provide good student government communication you
need a president with a big mouth, who is not afraid to
use it. Communication provides the solutions. The next
president must communicate. He will.

How does this description apply to this

Mr. Lipman: Racism exists in this university as it
exists throughout the society. It is evident in the
treatment of blacks in campus affairs. At the
convocation in Clark Gym a charge of racism in the
school of nursing was made. The next time you are in
the bursar’s office or the office of admissions and
records, try to find a black among the clerks there. The
entrance exam for this university is a test on white
culture which blacks must pass to gain admittance. How
many of the white students here could pass an exam on
black culture? When the Black Student Union presented
its list of demands to President Meyerson they were
directed to the very “proper channels” that have
suppressed blacks for centuries.
Yet for all the color racism which exists it is not
even the major form of racism on campus. The most
suppressed group on this campus is the student body as a
whole. Students are forced to obey rules in whose
conception they have had no part. They are mental
slaves to professors whose superiority is often
questionable. Unfortunately the area of racism is one in
which the university all too closely resembles the rest of
society.

Mr. Scott: To facilitate communication, the student
body must continue to be aware. Polity meetings should
be announced in Norton every hour along with the issues
to be discussed. Meetings should be held at night so that
the working students could attend without financial loss.
The Student Association Newsletter should be printed
on newspaper, because the average student has an
aversion to white paper leaflet forms. Mainly because
these papers resemble exams, and partly because they
resemble all of the reading matter constantly thrust
upon the student while entering and exiting the union. A
good example of the student unawareness would be to
ask any student to name the four top student association

Mr. Mattern: I would support a unicameral
legislature for the entire university. I would present this
to the polity for consideration pointing out that a
bicameral system would give a slim majority of one
house (roughly 25% of the voting power) ability to veto
any legislation. I would further establish that the binary
plan does not effectively provide impetus for
university-wide co-operation, that it contains the same
ambiguous and unreal division between faculty and
students, and that it places too great a power in the
hands of the small co-ordinating committee between the

Mr. Mattem: Perhaps the greatest institutional
racism exists in our immediate presence
the lack of a
union incorporating the food service personnel. This
condition must be acted upon immediately, so that all
campus staff can receive adequate working conditions
and a voice in their place of employ.
The existing quota of five percent admission and
recruiting for disadvantaged groups must be changed in
the next year. No less than 25% of incoming classes
should be recruited from all disadvantaged groups; there
must be adequate financial aid for these students, and
experimental and tutorial projects must be expanded.
I feel that the Faculty Student Association-held
lands should be used not only for the establishment of
low cost, non-profit housing but immediate steps should
be taken to establish facilities for job training and
pre-college education. This is necessary so that students
with inadequate previous education could enter the
university capable of competing on a scholastic basis
with the other university population, thus eliminating
the great frustrations and anxieties prevalant in the
existing experimental programs. This facility should be
run by the black and other disadvantaged minorities,
with full state and federal support.

Mr. Scott: This University is highly guilty of
institutional racism. You have the whites thinking white,
the blacks thinking black, Jesus, the Savior, Moses the

and love. Instead of all this shit, think like humans,
colorless, raceless. Godless people; unless you are a

area or on a specific
problem, many times
these areas overlap.
By working closely

with each coordinator and keeping each
one informed on the
other’s activities, I
feel there will be
greater continuity within the student government.
Although the council is made up of members of various
interests it is still one unit representing one university
community and unless these members consult or concur
there will not be the adoption of homogeneous and
mutually helpful measures.

It is the responsibility of the officers to see that the
government is both efficient and effective and it is only
through this means of personal communication that we
can expect to generate more enthusiasm in our student
body to make everything we do more meaningful.

Mr. Post: The Student Association is an
organization whose major function is to look after the
welfare and interests of the student body. The executive
officers and the Coordinating Council are charged with
carrying out this
duty.

The Coordinating Council can be
seen as composed of

individuals, each of
whom is assigned a
role dealing with a
specific aspect of
university life. The
executive officers’
roles, on the other
hand, are general.
That is; they are
concerned with the
entire spectrum of
problems facing the
university. This very
general character is a reflection of the undefined roles of
the executive officers of the Student Association.
In this light I feel that the executive officers, and
specifically the Vice President, have however, several
responsibilities in relationship to the Coordinating
Council:
To give direction and unity to the policies and
activities of the- Council. Too many times this year,
various coordinators worked without coordination on
different aspects of the same problem.
To try to ascertain the effectiveness of specific
programs of the Coordinating Council, and point out
any inadequacies that might exist.
To attempt to identify problem areas, and direct the
attention of the Council to them.
To take part in the deliberations and decisions of
the Council.
To direct to them information that can be useful in
formulation and implementation of policy.
And finally, to draw on the Coordinators’
knowledge in their particular field of activity, so that
decisions can be made that will enhance the well-being
of the entire University Community.

The Spectrum: What should be the executive officers’ relationship to the Polity?
Mr. Heymann: Poor communication is the cause for
lack of involvement in activities by students. Better
communication, of course, is the solution; but bringing
it about will not be easy.
The first job of the officers should be that of
educating students on the workings of their government
so they can at least be aware of how the Polity system
functions. This can be done by holding personal
meetings with students in the dorms, Allenhurst, and
Norton (for commuters). Continuing along this line,
during my term in office, 1 will act as a personal liaison
between students and government, meeting with the
former in their respective residence halls to keep them
informed on all coordinating council actions, to answer
any questions, and to listen to comments and

Mr. Borow; The rebirth of the Polity as a dynamic
and powerful voice of the student body will only come
about if its executive leaders are responsive to the
student desires. The executives must recognize their
position as administrative servants to the Polity and not
as an autonomous government in themselves.
The executives are responsible for the advertising
and the factual reporting of the Polity meetings. The
necessary formation of groups like the CTUB and CRC
blatantly prove that up till now the Polity has failed the
students. Ideally, we of the NEW SCHOOL party feel
that the excitement and fervor created during the week
of teach-ins can be perpetuated and even enhanced by a
revitalization of the Polity.
Many new voices and leaders have emerged, both on
right and left. They may be the harbingers
proclaiming the death of student apathy. But not if they
become frustrated and alienated by inaction or
cooperation.
The NEW SCHOOLS plans for expanding the polity
include the promise that student participation will not
merely be discursive. The Polity decisions will be
implemented and fulfilled.

It is also important to look ahead to our incoming
freshman class, I would like to set up a task force to
review a list that would be available to me containing all
the names of incoming freshmen and the activities they
participated in during high school. The task force would
then contact as many students as possible inviting them
to take part in those activities in which they have
previously excelled.

Mr. Post: I believe that much of the student
discontent at the University can be attributed to the
feeling of alienation an individual develops when he is
isolated from the process that governs his environment.
It is the responsibility of the Student Government, and
particularly of its executive officers, to focus issues and
to create a forum for grappling with the concerns of
students. The Polity should be such a forum. More than
a forum, the Polity should be the instrument by which
the mass of the students can express their wishes and
ideas effectively; through the making of substantive
decisions. This end has not, as yet, been accomplished
by the Polity.
To reach this goal the executive officers must
always be aware of the ever changing needs of the groups
with which they work. This necessitates the existence of
effective communication. This communication must be a
reciprocal sharing of the desires, heeds, and opinions
between the executive officers and the Polity, it is
impossible for the officers to be effective in any area if
the needs of that area are not understood.
At the same time it is necessary that the officers
communicate back to the Polity. For, unless the
students are informed of what actions are being taken,
and the reasoning behind them, it will be impossible for
them to judge upon those events, and to effectively
initiate future policy.
If this can be accomplished, then the Polity will be
able to function effectively as the decision making body
of the Student Association.

The Spectrum; How, specifically, can the Polity influence academic or institutional
reforms? academic or institutionalreforms?
Mr. Heymann: I feel the best way for students to
influence academic or institutional reforms is to work
from within the various departments. As each faculty is
operated under different requirements (for instance
social sciences are different from natural sciences) it
would be difficult to bring about complete change on an
overall basis due to conflict of interests.
Each department, should set up a committee
composed of both faculty and students to evaluate past,
present and future curriculum, and to establish
departmental guidelines and requirements.
Any student would be eligible to become a member
of these committees, and chosen representatives from
each committee could get together to propose
university-wide changes. This would provide a more
systematic and orderly fashion of bringing about
academic change open to all who are interested.
Student affairs, on the other hand, could continue
to be carried out by the various student governments,
and with the establishment of a bicameral or unicameral
legislature students could meet and discuss institutional
changes directly with the faculty.

1

Mr. Botow: The implications of this question
display an incorrect assumption about the nature of the
Polity. Not only can the Polity be the vanguard for all
academic and institutional reforms; but it can also
become a commentary on the community and world.
The Buffalo Nine, the Viet Nam war and Racism are also
subjects for Polity discussion, decision, and action.

Mr. Post: It is said that student governments,
Polity, are formed to work with the students,
faculty, and the administration, and with
surrounding community so as to attempt to improve

i.e.
the
the
the

University as a whole.
In such a case however, the process of change

necessitates the interaction of all these elements. This in
turn entails the exerting of pressure by each of the
elements involved, so as to teach its desired goal. This is
a normal situation, and it is within such a context that
the Polity operates.
The Polity's influence is derived from the exercise
of student power. By student power I mean the right of
students to exercise control over their environments. To
reach this goal the Polity can use its influence in a
number of ways:
by the level of mass instituted committees to deal
with problems of concern to the entire student body, by
communicating its views forcefully and unambiguously
to the faculty and administration.
by initiating contact with faculty members
by attempting to form better cooperation and
coordination between the various Student Associations
on campus
by running seminars dealing with university
problems in which students, faculty and administration
can take part
by actively supporting groups of students who are
working for greater student voice in various academic
departments.

The list is long. But, most importantly by educating
its members as to the workings of the university’s power
structure, and by offering to the university community
constructive alternatives and solutions.

The Spectrum: What can next year’s executive officers contribute to the planning
and construction of the Amherst campus?
Mr. Borow: Any contributions to the planning and
construction of the Amherst campus must be done
through the advice and consent of the Polity. The
executive officers must agenda the Polity meetings to
include discussions concerning the integrated work force
and such proposals as a student cooperative bookstore.
If a re-evaluation of the outdated medieval theories
at the basis of the university system is to be meaningful,
students must have the first voice. An investigation must
be conducted examining the possibility of a hidden
institutionalized racism in the hiring of staff and
administration.
The Polity can also assume the initiative for an
expansion of work-study courses and tutorial programs
to be effected on the new campus.
Facilities for mass meetings must be built and
opened to all student groups.

Mr. Heymann: The first problem that must be
overcome in the construction of the new campus is to
see that a fully integrated work force is established.
Next, we must realize that this campus is being built
for students and it is they who should have a large say in
its planning. I would like to see a student board
established to participate in the layout and design of
“our” new campus.
Let us not be fooled by construction like that at
Albany which is beautiful on the outside but does not
serve the needs of the students on the inside.

Mr. Post: This university is currently involved in a
project which is being referred to as the largest single
construction undertaking in the U.S. Yet with all the
glowing talk about the new vistas which are to be
opened at the new campus, there has been very little
student input to the planning and construction of the
Amherst campus. This might have been due both to
student apathy and the administration’s unwillingness to
involve a large number of students in the formulation
and review of the plans.
To remedy this situation I would first want to
publicize, via the Spectrum, the current master plan for
the new campus. Following this I would attempt to
establish mechanisms which would enable students to
contribute to, and review the construction plans.
Personally, I have been a member this year of a
university wide committee which dealt in a large part
with the plans for the construction of the Amherst
campus. I also had the opportunity to review the latest,
master plan. Thus, I feel that I have a relatively good
knowledge and understanding regarding this venture.
Concerning the roaster plan there were a number of
things which I found unsettling. Among them that the
projected student union is smaller than the present one.
This is for a campus of approximately 40,000 people. I
feel that an adequately large center of activities should
be provided regardless of the facilities in the various

colleges.
Finally, I will try to do everything possible so as to
have an integrated work force to construct the new

campus.

officers must:
I) limit the power of the Coordinating
Council to enact legislation and make
policy decisions in behalf of the Student
Association.
2) act as the liason between the various
coordinators in order to assure the full
integration of their individual activities and
separate positions.
3) a) establish some means of review for
all members of the Coordinating Council to
insure the impartial administration of
student affairs in behalf of the polity and
b) be impowered with the authority to
recommend to the Polity the removal from

office of any member of the Council who
fails to effectively execute the duties of his
office.

In conjunction with these proposals I
wish to stress the need for the
Coordinating Council to act not so much as
a legislative body carrying the wishes and
policies of the Polity regardless of personal
preference. The Coordinating Council must
not take upon itself the role as absolute
spokesman for the Student body. Such
action only defeats the purpose of the
Polity system which is to allow the greatest
possible participation by the student body
in decision making processes.

Mr. Steele: In relationship to the polity
the executive officer may often find
himself in the precarious position of trying
to impartially chair or moderate discussion
on a controversial issue while at the same
time act as a concerned individual and
debate in behalf of a particular viewpoint.
Thus the executive officer must in relation
to the Polity:
I) recognize his position as an impartial
leader of discussion and debate and do his
utmost to maintain neutrally during such
discussion unless he feels that as an
individual he must become actively
involved in a particular issue as a partisan
spokesman. At such times as these:
a) he must relinquish his position as
executive officer until the conclusion of all
debate on the issue at hand and
b) while acting as an individual Polity
member he must not use by reference or
implication the influence of the office he
holds in order to promote a particular
partisan viewpoint before the Polity.
2) a) must make known at the first
polity meeting following the annual

election of the Coordinating Council, all
available positions open to members of the
Polity on the various committees of the
Student Association and allow for the
greatest possible participation on such
committees by members of the Polity and
b) must see to it that all committees are
so composed as to represent the entire
spectrum of thought in the University and
to assure that all 'members of such
committees will be chosen without
prejudice in regard to race, color, creed or

Mr. Steele; In regard to academic and
institutional reforms the Polity must never
remain silent. Silence only invites and
results in the problems which encompassed
recent demonstrations, teach-ins, and
committees for reform. The Polity must
see to it that the teach-ins begun in recent
weeks become permanent entities of our
educational process. It must continuously
act to establish committees, reports,
legislation and referendums, etc. to cope
with the ever changing needs and desires of
the university community. Specifically, the
Polity must in the immediate time ahead
investigate and act upon such academic and
institutional problems as:
1) the need for an extensive revamping
of the present university system(s) of
government.
2) the need to eliminate the continuing
practices of racism not only on this campus
but with regard to our commitment as
individuals of what is unfortunately a racist

otherwise denied the opportunity for such
education because of inadequacies and
prejudices of current educational systems.
4) the need for representation on the
Admissions Committee by students and
faculty as well as appointed administration.
5) the need
for the university
community to acknowledge its awareness
of issues which not only affect the
university as a whole but affect the lives
and well-being of the individuals who are
part of it. With this in mind, I propose that
the executive officers be responsible to
present before the Polity all issues which
occur such as the Buffalo Nine Trial and
that the Polity should be the body to
decide if such an issue is relevant and
requires discussion and if relevant decide
upon what action should be taken.
6) the need for more and better
programs in independent stud/ and the
creation of degrees where and when
necessary to correlate with such programs.
Summarizing, I again stress the need for
the Polity to be the deciding body on all
issues with regard to academic and
institutional reforms.

religion,
3) recognize the need for all polity
meetings to be as widely publicized as
possible and to see that such meetings
occur at times and places convenient for
the greatest majority of the Polity.
Again I must stress' the need for and
responsibility of the executive officers to
offer the greatest participation possible

from the non elected members of the

Polity and to realize that as officers they
are primarily executors of the Polity’s
wishes, and as absolute dictators of
Student policy.

The Spectrum: How, specifically, can the Polity influence academic or institutional

reforms?
Mr. Fade): Academic and institutional
reforms can he influenced from within the
Polity structure from several directions.
Active student involvement in the
committee system, both Student
Association and university-wide, is
necessary for recognition of perceptive
student voice in decision making.
Curriculum planning, development of new
programs, tenure and promotion of faculty
are all handled at the committee level. The
Polity can help insure its voice by
continued and more equitable placement
of students on these committees.

The establishment of the Polity as a
truly effective source of student “power”
can also do much to influence the decision
making structure. General reforms such as
those concerning Pass/Fail stipulations,
evaluation of courses and programs, and
the initiation of ideas conducive to better
education can be greatly influenced by a
united undergraduate student voice
through the Polity. Looking to the future
the Polity can be used to provide a better
understanding of student feelings
concerning their education both in a
radical new university government and on a
radically new campus.

executive officers, by virtue of thenpositions of leadership, must further

however, is the recognition of the

or might

Mr. Beigevin: The main problem that
had arisen in the past was that of making
estimates because of unsure financial
status. Now that fees axe mandatory, this
problem has beeb erased. Other problems
that now exist are:
a. the student’s role in budgetary

matters.

b. deciding what exactly fees may be
used for.
c. keeping dose check on the money
spent by the Student Association.
The student’s role should be increased
and I will do all that is in my power to see
that this is achieved. I will publish budget
rations in order
requests of student
to let the student body know where its
money goes. Opinions on the budgets of
student groups will be welcomed and time
will be set aside in order to hear them.
Deciding what the fees can be used for
is a hard question. Anything that is not
benefiting the university solely should
receive little university aid. There is no
reason why outade organizations should be
supported by the students. To help in what
seems like controversial requests, I will
suggest to the finance committee the use of
referendums. There is no reason why a
small committee wsfaould act like an
oligarchy in the disposition of student fees.
One of the other large problems is the
use of money by the students’ own
government. The budgets of the various
coordinators must be carefully checked.
An elected government is given no mandate
to dispense money at free will. I will keep
close check on the student government.

Miss Doohaluk: Any problems which
might arise before the Student Association
concerning student fees can be divided into
three basic categories:
1. Allocation of student monies;
2. Acquisition of student monies
(voluntary or mandatory fees); and
3. the amount of the student fees
Since according to the Student
Association constitution, the Polity, or
representative organization of the general
student body, has no say in the allocation
of student monies to recognized student
organizations, any problem concerned with
this would be handled through the Finance
Committee. The Committee would review
any complaints and/or questions
concerning its allocations and would make
suggestions to resolve the problem.
For points two and three, the only
feasible and fair solution is the student
referendum, despite the fact that it can
only draw less than forty per cent of the
students to vote. It is the Student
Association’s duty to find some way to
make the referendum more indicative of
the majority opinion of the entire student
body, perhaps by setting up a more
efficient way of conducting the
referendum (perhaps more tables set up in
Diefendorf, Acheson or the other major
buildings or using some sort of a computer
set-up). The fact remains that the Student
Association is the students and must
represent the students and is responsible to
the students and the only way to reach the
students is through the referendum.

Mr. Majchrowicz: As Treasurer and
Chairman of the Finance Committee, I
would have the responsibility for
formulating a budget to be presented to
the Co-ordinating Council. This body
determines the Student Activities fee
necessary to meet this budget, subject to
the approval of the Polity.
1 would, based on my experience as a
working member of the Finance
Committee, establish criteria for: a) the
appraisal of the unique nature and purpose
of each organization’s budgetary request,
and b) the disbursement of funds, based on
a careful cost analysis of each approved
program. Through the establishment of
these criteria UNNECESSARY
appropriations would be eliminated, thus
insuring maximum benefits for monies
spent. Should there be a sufficient surplus
at the end of the fiscal year, to warrant the
cost involved, I would investigate the
feasibility of a partial rebate to the
individual student.
The Treasurer at present has no voice in
the formulation of the university’s athletic
budget. I persononally am a member of the
Athletic Review Board, which must
approve the budget, in order for it to go
into effect. As a member of this committee
and as Treasurer, 1 will work to insure that
the wishes of the students, as voiced in
recent, and to be voiced in subsequent
referendums, are carried out.

Miss Caterer; The purpose of a polity is
to allow greater participatory democracy
while maintaining an efficient and
progressive Student Government.
The Constitution of the Student
Association does not allow the allocation
of funds to organizations to be subject to
review by the polity, nor does it allow
legislation of the polity to supercede
legislation of the Student Coordinating
Council in financial matters. These
regulations were designed to expedite and
simplify the handling of student funds. If
financial allocations were subject to review
by the polity it would cause delay and
confusion. An organization or an activity

Miss Osterer: The Faculty-Senate

incorporated in the FSA dealing with fees
collected from the Student Association,
the MFC Student Association, and the
Graduate Student Association, land, and
operation of such organizations as the
book store and food service.
It is my opinion that the FSA needs an
immediate and extensive investigation. The
student body has little or no knowledge as
to what role the Association plays in
student financial matters and yet

in advance how much money it has to
work with. Lack of this knowledge would
paralyze student activities. We have seen
what this power has done to the athletic
program. Whether the students support a
full athletic program or not, I feel it is
necessary that the directors of the program
know how much money they have and for
how long they have it. Reviewing the
budgets of each organization and activity
would require a phenomenal amount of the
students’ time.
The individual club or organization may
appeal what they feel are unfair allocations
to the Student Coordinating Council and
other bodies which serve as practical
checks on the Finance Committee.
Ultimately, the polity can have control
over financial matters. They can, by a
petition signed by 10% of the body,
propose an amendment to the Constitution
which could enable them to have direct
control over financial allocations.

a complete investigation into the
power of the Faculty-Student Association.
At present, its role in student fees is quite
obscure. Its main power comes from its
influence in sub-board I. This board is in
charge of $250,000 of student assets. Its
interests range from the University
Bookstore to the vending machines and
food service. While this board is controlled
by representatives of the five student
governments, some decisions are handled
by the administration. If the investigation
reveals excess control by the
administration, steps will be taken to
restore student control. One solution
would be to remove the Student

incorporate it. This would leave all power

Miss Doohaluk: The Faculty-Student
Association is an organization financed in
part by the Student Association, Millard
Filmore College Division, Grad-Student
Association, Student Bar Association and
the Med-Dent Student Council. With these
funds, the FSA subsidizes the bookstore,
the Food Service and controls its property
holdings. The FSA also, through its
sub-boards allocates funds to the Student
Publications Board, the University Union
Activities Board and other organizations.
Since the FSA is simply administering
student monies, it should have no say in
how these funds are to be used by the
different organizations.
I think that the Student Association
should look into the role that the
Faculty-Student Association plays in the

student body. It is the student’s chance to
get up and voice his opinions to the
university community. The Polity has
every right to say what should happen to
the money that it gives the Student
Association. Although, constitutionally,
the Polity has no voice concerning the
allocation of Student Association Funds,
indirectly it can do something about it
through the elections by voting for a
candidate who can represent a majority
opinion, who can be fair and impartial,
who can divorce himself from politics. The
way to do this is to vote, in large numbers.
The records should be open to the students
and the treasurer willing to explain his
decisions.
For other pertinent questions
concerning student funds, such as the
athletic fee question, the polity acts
through the referendum. The referendum
should express the majority opinion of the
students but it can’t if no more than forty
per cent of the student body votes. The
Polity can have a large say, but it needs
support.
We must eliminate double referendums

vote, to get a majority opinion and abide

this cannot be accomplished until general

disposition of student fees. General
financial affairs must be controlled by
elected officials because they have the
knowledge needed to handle the financial
affairs . of a one-half million dollar
organization. The polity should of course
be given final say in many of the matters.
My hope is that they will first closely
examine all views. Heavy emphasis should
be placed on any reports by the finance

uninformed voters is just as bad as allowing
for no student opinion or power at all in

already existing one. This will, if found to

be necessary, insure each student of his
rights.

Mr. Majchrowicz: The ultimate control
over student financial matters lies with the
students. It can remove inefficient officers
through recall, determine funds available
through referendum, and decide to make
special expenditures through the Polity.
This should continue.
However, within the frameworks
provided by the Polity, the administration
of funds for organizations and activities is
regulated by the Finance Committee, in a
manner designed to insure the rights of
these organizations and activities. This
day-to-day administration should continue
with the stipulations made in my answer to
the first question.

university community.

Miss Osterer: The Finance Committee

must be receptive to the needs of the
students. It must act always in the best
interests of the student body and, in doing
so must handle student funds responsibly.
The allocation of funds to organizations
or activities must be in line with student
interests. If one group or activity has
greater University-wide interest, the
Finance Committee should allocate the
body a greater amount of money. Student
interests should be made known through
the polity; an organization that needs to be
made an effective vehicle for hearing the
individual student as well as for directing
change in the University community.
Guidelines set by past administrations
should be used as outlines for determining
new budgets. Budgets should be submitted
in itemized form so that all money
appropriated can be easily accounted for.
This is essential to effective and efficient
handling of student funds.
Specific needs of a group or activity
must be taken into account. These'needs
must be determined through impartial and
objective judgements. Although the
Treasurer and the Finance Committee act
in a largely administrative role, they do not
remain in a vacuum. Each member of the
Committee has prejudices and, therefore,
the necessity for objectivity is increased
and becomes an essential requirement for
any effective Committee. I feel that an
important attribute for any member of the
Finance Committee to possess is the ability
to understand people: to try to see things
from another’s point of view and then to
evaluate and decide.

The Spectrum: What sort of functional criteria will your finance committee use in
allocating funds to organizations or activities?
Mr, Bergevin: How much money to give
campus clubs or activities will consume a
major part of the finance committee’s
time. After the Budgets are submitted,
they will be heavily screened by this
committee. First of all, they will be
checked with last year’s budget. If any
extreme increases are found, they must be
fully explained. But this will not be the
sole criteria. The whole budget will be
given a full examination. Just because a
budget was approved the year before gives
it no perogative for clearance. There is
little sense in giving approval because it was
previously given. Many things could have
affected previous judgements.
I believe that money should be given
mainly on two reasons. First of all, the
number of people involved and the number
affected. An organization benefiting few
should get only its just proportion of the
money. Another criteria is the services
performed or the benefits given to the
student body. All organizations should be
given an opportunity to obtain money, but
all do not deserve the same amount. The
final decision should rest with the student.
I will make budgets as available as I

welcomed. Hopefully one night a week can
be set aside for students to come and speak
before the finance committee.

Miss Doohaluk: As treasurer of the
Student Association and chairman of the
finance committee, it would be my
responsibility to allocate student funds to
the recognized organizations and activities
on campus. To do this, the best procedure
would be to examine the previous year’s
budget as well as the proposed budget, find
out how efficiently last year’s funds were
spent and how efficiently this year’s
money can be spent and
then the
committee
would
make its
recommendations on how much money
should be appropriated to each
organization.
As business manager of a literary
magazine operating under a very limited
budget, 1 know the importance of utilizing
the available funds in the most efficient
way possible. This is all 1 can pledge: I will
do my best, to take full advantage of the
talents of the Finance Committee, to
disburse the student monies in the most
efficient and satisfactory (to the majority
of the students) way possible; to examine
the Faculty-Student Association, to find
out how efficiently they use student
monies. I will try my best, that’s all I can

Mr. Majchrowicz: Having been a
member of the Finance Committee for the
past year, I will institute the following:
1) Indude on my Finance Committee
qualified students who broadly represent
die undergraduate community.
2) Enlist the aid of the Student
Activities Committee in determining the
exact nature and purpose of each request
for funds, and in determining whether or
not specific requests are congruent with
the nature and purposes of the
organization or activity making them.
3) Establish strong lines of
communication between the Finance
Committee and the individual clubs and
activities by developing dose personal
contacts with group Treasurers. This will
serve to insure that groups are familiarized
with the committee’s criteria and policies.
4) Review and where necessary revise
the existing rules and procedures of the
Finance Committee.
5) Establish a study to obtain realistic
cost estimates, which may be utilized in
allocating funds. With the above I feel that
an honest and fair appraisal of each request
may be made, which insures that money is

Miss Osterer: Ail problems regarding
student fees must be handled by the polity.
The students are paying the fees and
decisions on how to regulate them should
be made by the polity. I would like to see,
however, some rule written into the
Constitution allowing student activities
fees and athletic fees to remain constant
for at least a period of a year.

6) Review and audit the financial
records of groups funded by the Student
Association, to make sure that the funds
are being used for the purposes stated.

City Editor

As the State Legislature prepares to consider two
measures dealing with law-breaking campus demonstrators,
several protests on state campuses have died down.
The legislature is expected to
act shortly on a bill which would
make all colleges and universities
in the state set strict guidelines for
campus behavior.
A second measure, already
passed by the Senate, would take
state financial aid away from
protesting students who break the
law.
Both bills are expected to pass
the Senate and Assembly and be
sent to Gov. Rockefeller.
State University Chancellor
Samuel B. Gould has endorsed the
bill which would direct each
college to file a “battle plan” for
dealing with disrupters.
Meanwhile, classes resume,
today at the State University at
Binghamton. They were cancelled
Monday and Tuesday as a series of
seminars were held to discuss
campus problems.

The seminars focused on the
school’s budget, housing,
recruitment, admissions, racism
and political activities.'
The cancelling of classes was
taken on the recommendation of
the faculty senate. The 6500
students will have to make up the
missed classes at the end of the
semester, said University President
G. Bruce Dearing.
Earlier, the Binghamton
campus had been the scene of a
week-long fast by nearly 30
students. The fast was in protest
of the suspension of three
students for interfering with a
U.S. Marine Corps recruiter.
The Niagara University board
of trustees will meet today to
University’s
discuss the
mandatory ROTC program. A
group of about 25 students have
been peacefully protesting the
program in front of the
University’s student center for
more than a week.
Niagara presently requires all
physically able male students to
particpate in ROTC for four
semesters.
The Niagara students were also
protesting to back their call for a

black studies program and
abolition of mandatory
philosophy courses.

Oh, you know... that

�Censorship liberalized
by Jim YousBng

College Frets Service

On March 29,
1965, a
relatively obscure actress named
Thelma Oliver made cinema
history by exposing her breasts.

The female bosom had been
glimpsed before on the silver
a French girl named
screen
Bardot had been displaying hers
but this
for nearly a decade
time the situation was quite
different. This film was “The
Pawnbroker,” and for the first
time, an American movie had
challenged the Production Code’s
ban on nudity and walked off
with a Seal of Approval.
The Motion Picture Assn, of
America’s late-found discovery
that there might be some
distinction between nudity and
obscenity represents only one of a
series of censorship breakdowns
which have suddenly and
drastically altered the nature of
sex in the movies.
The Production Code, which
graphically spelled out the
portions of anatomy, the actions
and themes and the words
(including “girlie, goose,
homosexual and virgin”) which
were forbidden to film makers,
was replaced in 1966 by a new
code which does little more than
suggest guidelines of taste.
The Catholic Legion of
Decency, which once could make
or break a film, has been reformed
into the National Catholic Office
of Motion Pictures, whose “edits”
are more like neighborly advice.
Film making has, then, been
largely liberated from the censors.
And suddenly the rush is on.
Producers now find nude scenes a
fashionable
Fox”
brought on a veritable rash of
homosexuality films.
-

-

Govern!

The mass public, which does
not bother to inform itself about
movie content, can no longer
complain: “I don’t know what
sort of trash

my children are

exposed to these days,” because
the rating system assures them
that their kids will not be
admitted to films with a high
sexual content.

King Kong restricted
One can indeed argue this
point of morality. But let me
quickly point out that the much
more liberal cinema of Europe,
which has always been held up as

the hallmark of artistic freedom,
has been under a modified GMRX
system for a great many years.
This is why Miss Bardot’s breasts
made their debut ten years before
Miss Oliver’s.
(The Europeans, I might add,
have more realistically applied
their ratings to violence, as well as
sex. In France, for example, you
must be at least 16 to see “King
Kong” and most Westerns).
But in the final analysis, less
censorship simply means more
honesty. Certainly, sex and

violence will be flagrantly misused
in the coming years. Already, we
have witnessed the epidemic of “I,
a Woman” exploitation films, the
unnecessary seduction scene
tacked onto “Sister George” and
the unmotivated nudity of “Here
We Go Round the Mulberry
Bush.”
And now that “I Am Curious,
Yellow” has won its censorship
case, the movie-going public can
expect the day when it will
witness the first Hollywood
copulation scene, explicit and in
cinerama, technicolor and
sterophonic sound.

So where is all this leading ns?
To art or to stag movies? Those of
us involved with the arts, opposed
to censorship by nature, would
surely defend this liberalization.
The mothers of Topeka, however,
just might feel a bit differently.
This brings us to the new
movie classification system known
as GMRX. Anyone truly
concerned with cinema win notice
the inaccuracy, shortsightedness
and general stupidity with which
these ratings are dished out.

GMRX

“The Impossible Years” may
be free of swearing and nudity,
but no child should be exposed to
its sneering, leering, view of
adolescent sexuality. A film like
“Ulysses,” on the other hand,
with all its sweating and nudity,
projects an honesty and sensitivity
which should be seen by people
far below its 18-year-old
restriction.
But even though the GMRX
system will be mismanaged, it
ironically oners a great freedom
to film makers, if not to film
goers under 18 (who might well
consider the constitutionality of
the X rating, which will not admit
anyone under 18, accompanied by
a parent or not). This freedom is
indeed guaranteed by the rating
system because it provides a
crutch for the mothers of Topeka.
And perhaps when that
cinerama fornication scene does
arrive, the audience will fall asleep
unless it is sensitive, artistic and
well-motivated.
But they will be properly used,
too, as in “Ulysses,” “I Am
Curious, Yellow” and ‘The
Fixer.” Hollywood no longer has
to resort to the veiled innuendoes
of “The Children’s Hour” or the
euphemisms of “Suddenly Last
Summer.”

changes needed
by PhQ Semas
College Press Service
If the student unrest currently
sweeping American campuses has
proved nothing else, it has shown
that drastic changes are needed in
the way universities and colleges
are run.

Behind most of the immediate
issues in the present student
centering around
movement
demands that universities start
meeting the needs of ethnic
minorities
is a more general
desire of students for real power
over their campuses.
In many ways, this is a more
radical cause. If black students are
to have control over their
education, as they have rightfully
demanded, why shouldn’t white
students? Student power can be as
radical an idea as black power,
although it has been perverted on
many campuses to mean

And
changes

might be made in
education in general. The current
student strikes have clearly shown
that administrators, faculties and
governing boards are too tied to
the old traditional processes and
ideas to ever make meaningful
changes in the role of the
university. Student protest tactics
have escalated because of the
inability of those who govern
these institutions to make
meaningful changes.
If students are ever going to be
able to turn from tearing down
the present educational system to
building a new one
as everyone
they are
keeps telling them to
going to have to have real power.
Universities are going to have to
change the system by which they

are governed.

In

committees, student control over
meaningless “student activities,”
and so on.

Long time ago
students had real power
to the power of
administrators, faculty members
and governing boards, our
universities might have done what
should have been done long ago to
meet the needs of third-world
people
which would make the
present protests unnecessary.

these boards are either appointed

private universities are usually

alumni.
A recent study by the

These boards have a tendency
to make things worse by wanting
to crack down on student dissent,
instead of trying to understand
the real grievances that caused it.
They are also often out of touch

The New School

From Tondeleo’s panting pen

Take time-out to study today’s Spectrum carefully
We have published 4 Student Association office
candidates’ answers to a series of ‘interview’ questions. All
the candidates were given a considerable amount of time and
space to present their views, and their statements can
provide a considerable amount of insight to voters. The
questions were specific and. we think, relevant.
In a campaign as short as this one with little time for
lengthy debate or presentation of personalities or programs
the value of such an opportunity to examine the
candidates’ depth and breadth on key issues can not be
minimized. We readily emphasize that personal discussion
with all the candidates by all the voters is the ideal situation;
but we recognize that the circumstances of this campaign in
particular make personal contact impossible for many
student voters. A careful analysis of the answers in the
special sections of today’s and last Monday’s Spectrum is a
minimal prerequisite for voting tomorrow or Friday.

To the editor:
My little drugged heart beat violently as I read
the lavish praise afforded me by that darling Mr.
Shapiro. Flames of excitement rushed through my
hollow eyes as his words flashed before them.
Please be advised that my erotic little fingers are
furiously scrawling out more prose to titillate the
minds of the lonely.
Again, thank you for bringing a ray of sunshine
into my tawdry and degenerate existence. You’ve
taught me how to laugh again.

Mere ‘communication’
that hackneyed ambiguous

political phrase
by nearly all other candidates
can do nothing by itself. It must be coupled with
performance. The Polity can not merely say it is responsive
and effective it must act responsively and effectively. This
past year sadly attests to that fact. The four New School
officer candidates, more than any others, have both the
knowledge and capability to ensure that responsiveness, to
inspire that effectiveness. Their considerable research into
the crucial questions facing the University community and
their foresight in suggesting avenues for student activity
indicate considerable depth of understanding and resolve.

Association is truly one of the key decision-makers
in the academic community. His role has been
rapidly expanded to include nearly every facet of
University life. Theatrics and saturation campaigning
should not influence our decisions. Too much is at
stake in this election for us to shrug off our
responsibility to vote. The few minutes that it takes

for the very decisive 1969-70 academic year.
In a campus election we find that most of the
candidates are relatively anonymous. Campaign
rhetoric sounds completely incomprehensible and
it’s often difficult to arrive at good choices. The
recommendations which follow are intended to
stimulate thought about the candidates who I think
are qualified and competent. I do urge, however,
that everyone come to their own conclusions
independently. It’s never wise to follow anyone’s
endorsements blindly.

Bob Mattern understands the nature of the educational
malaise afflicting this University and has some excellent
suggestions for students to actively begin treating it. The
‘troika* of himself, Jim Borow and Andy Steele is the only
group of candidates which has a chance of revitalizing the
Polity. Further, Carole Osterer is the only candidate for
treasurer who exhibits a desire for impartiality and fairness
in student allocations combined with an earnestness in
pressing for immediate reevaluation of the
Faculty-Student-Association.

In examining the statements, we suggest you consider
the following guidelines:

Only The New School candidates satisfy all of the above
criteria. Their approach is consistent, it is open-minded, it is
humanistic, it is egalitarian, it is radical
and it is what’s
needed. Most importantly, there is a clear commitment to
action.

Screwed again!

Two candidates for president, Bill Austin and
Coleman, have demonstrated a sincere
dedication to progress in the University. They are
workers who entertain no notions of demagogic
leadership. Both Miss Coleman and Mr. Austin are
gifted in negotiating with the decision-makers of the
University. They have the requisite skills for a
successful administration.
I am not impressed by the credentials of any of
the candidates for first vice president. Either George
Heymann or Louis Post, however, would make good
caretaker officers.

Carole Osterer has demonstrated the necessary
administrative skills for the office of treasurer. The
responsibilities of the office are very great and I feel
that she is competent to handle them.
Marlene Kozuchowski is the candidate best
suited for the public affairs position. She has been
very active in campus affairs and she has
demonstrated an ability to utilize the mass media.
Dennis Arnold is best qualified to handle the
important and sensitive position of student rights
coordinator. His conceptions of student rights in
society ate forward looking and well reasoned. Mr.
Arnold has the necessary skills and outlook to deal
with the agencies that are immediately concerned
with student rights.

Criticizes student taxes
To the editor.

In the “University Society” we find that the
citizens are required to pay a tax of S6S.00 per year.
Now, let us examine where this money goes. Part of
this money goes to the student government to “keep
the wheels of the government turning.” Another part
goes toward upkeep of Norton Hall. Still another
part goes to a committee set up to aid the student in
commuting problems. All these activities fall into the
category of public goods. Is this all? Far from it.
The vast majority of the money received from
the students’ taxes is used for private goods. The ski
club, fencing club, football scholarships, SDS, to
mention just a few. They are classified as private
goods because they are for the entertainment of the
citizens. As a consequence it should be up to the
individual to choose where his money will be spent
for entertainment. If the individual cannot make this
decision his tights are being infringed upon by other
(

people.

Let it not be misunderstood that I am against all
activities. On the contrary, I am an avid
motorcyclist, Budweiser drinker, and music lover
among other things. As a consequence of my desires,
I find ! have to allocate a lot of my meager income
to live and very little for my vices.
If we must pay these taxes every semester why
not put them to better use?
I for one am sick and tired of paying for
someone elses entertainment. The members of the
football team can borrow money from the
NYSHEAC for their education. They aren’t any
better than you or I. If the ski club wants to go to
Vermont siding, fine, but let them pay for it
themselves, if the SDS wants to protest about
anything, fine, but let them go out and work for the
money they need. There are a lot of people in our
society who support and defend students’ rights. Yet
they are the same ones who want me to pay for their
entertainment.
There is a gross misallocation of resources at this
University. Let’s find out what the candidates ate
willing to do about this. They are the ones who will
be running the show in your behalf next semester so
let’s see if they ate going to run it a little bit better
than the last administration.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;

issue.

The origin of the
anti-student-riot movement was in
the U.S. Congress in September
where a bill passed revoking
federal aid to students involved in
“substantial disruption.” However
it is up to the Universities to
determine the seriousness of the
disruption.

The student repression has
probably been hardest in
California, scene of the most
violent rebellions. The Regents are
demanding a ban on campus
rallies and immediate removal of
all strikers. The right to assemble

has not existed at Sah Francisco
State College since January. Gov.
Ronald Reagan has declared his
intention of using police at the
first sign of trouble on any state
campus, and police now guard San
Francisco State and Berkeley.
Conspiracy

Reagan and other governors
have called for a federal probe
into student disorder. Gov. John
Bell Williams of Mississippi gave
his personal belief in a
“conspiracy” of “agitators” who
move from campus to campus.
Reagan denied that there was
police brutality in California, and
said that the chance of escalating
violence by bringing in police is “a
risk we have to take.” He
reminded the governors: “If this is
guerrilla warfare, the basis of
fighting is to eliminate the
guerrillas.”
The demand for quick action
against student disrupters comes
from Regents, legislators and
executives in all levels of
government. Vice-President
Agnew used troops to stop a blade
college uprising as Governor of
Maryland. Given enthusiasm in
high places, a newly legalized
wave of campus repression may be
forthcoming.

The Spccri^uM

�S.A. elections this week
The campaign for officer and coordinator positions of Student Association will be terminated by undergraduate elections Thursday and Friday.
Richard Spitzer, chairman of the elections board,
recommends that “in order to avoid delay in voting,
students should study the ballot before entering the
booths.” He added that students will be required to
show their validated ID card or their number six schedule card for the second semester.
The six candidates vying for the position of Student Association president are Bill Austin, James Chiswell, Nancy Coleman, Harry Lipman, Robert Mattern
and Steven Scott.
The students running for first vice president are
James Borrow, George Hymann and Louis Post. Frederick Fadel and Andrew Steele are candidates for
second vice president.

Frank Reid and Howard Arenstein are bidding for
the office of Public Affairs coordinator. Contending
for the post of Students Rights coordinator are: Dennis
Arnold, Eric Goplerud and Eugene Protas.
The posts of Student Services coordinator and
New Student Atfears coordinator will not appear on
this week's ballot since no students have applied for
these positions. Special balloting later this Spring
seems likely

for these key positions.

Open debate today
The Haas Lounge today wilt be the site of an open
debate among the various Student Association candidates.
Many of the 25 University undergraduates vying for the
four executive officer and five coordinator posts will be on
hand there between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. to discuss campaign
issues and answer questions from the audience.

The position of treasurer is being sought by Dan
Bergevin, Mary Jane Doohaluk, Ralph Majchowicz and
Carole Osterer.
UNCONTESTED

Three of the candidates for coordinator positions
are running uncontested. They are Nabil Alami for
Inter-student Affairs coordinator, Howard Friedman
for Academic Affairs coordinator and Ellen Price for
National Student Association coordinator.

Monday,

March

17. 1969

The voting will be conducted from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
in the Center Lounge, Norton Hall and from 9 a.m. to

The Spectrum: What should next year’s
Student Rights Coordinator do, if

anything, to provide draft counseling for
male University students?

Dennis Arnold

Eric Goplerud

Eugene Protas

Mr. Arnold: Since the draft is of such
basic importance to University males and
since a multitude of misconceptions exist
concerning the Selective Service System, I
believe that as Student Rights Coordinator,
I have a definite responsibility in this area.
At the present time, aside from local
draft boards, the only dissemination of
draft information is handled by the
University Placement Center and the
Buffalo Draft Resistance Union. Since
many students are not aware of the
Placement Center’s efforts and many
others are reluctant to avail themselves of
the B.D.R.U., a large void exists in regards
to factual information.
With this fact in mind, I plan to
distribute literature describing the various
deferments and directing students to utilize
the University Placement Center should
they have any further questions about the
draft. I plan to mail this information to all
University males in early September.
Furthermore, I hope to be able to
personally aid in any draft counseling that
may occur at the Placement Center, as 1

Mr. Goplerud: Laws and regulations
within an academic community and the
larger society often appear arbitrary or
vengeful when translated to the individual’s
level. Working within these overlapping
jurisdictions, the Student Rights
Coordinator must serve the double
functions of information dissomination
and a rights expiditer. This function may
be best served, I feel, by reserving the
office of Student Rights Coordinator for
just that, connecting the student with
specific, specialized aid within whatever
area the student requires.
Building from this foundation, specific
concerns such as draft counseling should
remain with the already functioning
Coordinator concerning
centers, the
himself rather with opening and publicizing
avenues of assistance.
Controversial issues like the draft and its
alternatives may be approached from many
organizational levels and philosophies. I
would like to see, within this, as well as
other areas of student concern, the
implementation of a continually updated
list of concerned organizations in a form
readily available to all.
Specifically, the diverse approaches of
the concerned groups would tend to show
a certain futility in the establishment of an
unbiased, on-campus draft counseling
center. Rather, relevant materials should be
requested of all existing centers, and such

Mr. Protas: Information and procedures
concerning counseling for legal alternatives
to Selective Service procedures is currently
available through the Student Rights
Coordinator. A copy of Selective Service
Law Reports, (a comprehensive
complilation of information regarding
procedures and precedents of the Selective
Service System) is available to any
interested member of the University
Community. Draft counseling is available
through the University Placement Center.
Any further counseling service which the
university might provide should be left up
to a polity decision. Many students are not
aware that these services exist. The major
problem facing next years’ Student Rights
Coordinator will be to more effectively
distribute information conCen.ing the
functions and services of his office. One
method would be a bulletin issued
bi-weekly listing various information
agencies and literature available to the
university community. In the case of
information concerning judicial decisions
affecting students rights, which should be
brought to immediate light of the
community, a release through the
Communications Center would be issued.

accessible spots; e.g., the SA office in
Norton. Most importantly, all Academic
Advisors, in particular the U.C. Advisors,
and the Residence Advisors should be
strongly asked to attend a short session
panelled by representatives of the above
groups.
The Student Rights Coordinator must
serve, I believe, to widen paths from
student problems to specialists within the
specific areas, and make the existence of
these channels known to the student body.

The Spectrum: What sort of ‘due
process,’ if any, should be observed in
student disciplinary or academic appeal
cases?

Mr. Arnold: Within the realm of
academic cases, particularly those involving
academic dishonesty, there is a significant
lack of due process. If a professor feels that
a student was cheating on an exam, the
usual action taken is that the student is
given a failing grade immediately.
Not only does this leave the student at
the mercy of the faculty, but this is in
direct violation of the Fifth Amendment to

the Constitution, which guarantees due
process of the law Ip all citizens.
Therefore, I propose to establish an
academic court. This would be a body
comprised solely of students, thus
guaranteeing to a student a trial by his
peers. The jurisdiction of this court would
encompass all irregularities occurring
within the academic sphere of this
University. This includes not only
academic dishonesty cases, but any
instance where a student feels he has been
given an arbitrary or unfair grade.
At the present time, the concept of due
process, I feel, is being adhered to in
disciplinary cases. My sole criticism in this
area is that the functions of the Student
Judiciary are not publicized sufficiently. I
hope to correct this so that when a law is
broken on campus, students are aware of
the legal channels open to them.

.

-continued from previous page

Mr. Goplerud: When broken down “due
process” is understood to have a double
meaning. First, procedural due process is
considered as a process for administering
justice upon a constituency. From this
viewpoint, U.S.’s legal system is close to
ideal, providing the guarantees of the Bill
of Rights within the Student Judiciary
framework, and a large number of
beneficial, legal aids and procedures. Other
than the extension of due process to
academic review, I propose no changes.
However, there is a second, more subtle,
and more highly significant meaning to due
process, namely “substantive due process,”
which combines with the “equal
protection” clause of the XIV Amendment
to breakdown the provincialism of a
student-faculty-administration caste
system. The past several weeks have clearly
been evidence of a student mandate for
substantive due process, a desire to be able
to interest on an equal footing with faculty
and administration, and a drive for
instituting university-wide reform.
The cry has gone up for a unified

student

-

Mr. Protas: The due process procedures
which are now in effect must be followed
to the letter. Any breach of due process
does, in fact, constitute a violation of that

student’s rights.

Any student, as in the courts, who feels
that due process was not followed will have
his case immediately reviewed for
procedural irregularities. The findings of
this review will be submitted in writing to
the Student Judiciary, Student Association
President, Administrators, Faculty Senate,
Committee for Student Behavior and to
the various Student publications for public

release.

Furthermore, I consider it the duty of
the S.R.C. to inform all students of the
legal and judiciary apparatus of this
university, so that they will be aware of
their rights whether or not they are ever
involved in any judicial proceedings.

parity and power sharing. I would propose,

therefore, maintainence of the procedural
clauses providing for due process, with a
concurrent extension of the seeps of the
Judiciary and the Academic
Student
Review Committees to encompass the
entire university community. These
increases in jurisdiction would call for a
new constitution, and a re-examination of
the role of a university community.
The extension of “substantive due
process” to the entire community is a first,
and basic step to the creation of a society
of equals.
Editor's note: Mr. Goplerud chose to combine
his answers to the last two questions:

The Spectrum: In what ways can
students be protected from violations of
their legal rights by civil authorities?

Mr. Arnold: There is no doubt in my
mind that the legal rights of students have
been violated by local civil authorities.
Since few students are fully aware of their
constitutional rights concerning arrests and
searches, 1 intend to mail to all University
students a booklet entitled, “Your Rights
If You Are Arrested”.
Secondly, in the past, when students
have been harrassed by officers of the law,
they have had no practical or legal redress
available to them. To correct this I propose
to establish a committee of ombudsmen
who will answer such complaints and
institute proper action in conjunction with
myself.

To firmly enumerate the rights
guaranteed to all students, I intend to
formulate a Student Bill of Rights which
will further serve to broaden student
knowledge and awareness in this area. This
Bill would include the protection of a
student’s rights within the University, as
well as the protection of a student’s rights
as a private citizen.

Finally, I will ask all student and faculty
governments to pass laws making it illegal
for undercover agents to operate on this
campus. I intend to do so in the belief that
surreptitious actions by the police violate
the sanctity and free educational spirit of
this University.

Association with legal advice?
mechanism(s)

Mr. Arnold: In order to provide
students with the fullest legal protection, it
is necessary to have legal counsel readily
available. To fulfill this end, I propose to
retain lawyers to prepare legal briefs in
areas where I feel the rights of students are
being illegally denied.
Furthermore, I intend to establish a
working relationship with both the
American Civil Liberties Union and the
of legal counsel for students who are in
need of such action.
Finally, since students who are not area
residents would have extreme trouble in
obtaining a lawyer, I hope to formulate a
list of local lawyers who are interested and
willing to be retained for legal work in the
scope of student rights.

Monday, March 17, 1969

Mr. Goplerud: The Student Rights
Coordinator’s most visual, and possibly
most vital job, is in student
civil
authority confrontations. The crucial
concern of the coordinator must be on
seeing that a student’s rights are in no way
abridged through ignorance or malice.
Working in the double capacity of
information disseminator and as a
representative of the University polity to
the civil authorities, the coordinator must
prepare a three-pronged campaign on the
problems of students’ rights outside the
university.
First, and I believe foremost, the
coordinator must keep the polity informed
of its legal rights, of which the recently
established S.A. Legal Aid Service is a fine
first step. Building on these systems
already developed, I would like to see a
greater flow of physical materials, in the
form of communiques, pamphlets, and
other educations oriented student rights
materials issuing from the coordinator’s
office. Primarily, this information should
go to U.C., Academic and Residence
Advisors. The first bulwark against the
infringement on a student’s rights is
knowledge, and all possible methods of
making this information available must be
explored. Ignorance of rights and legal
recourse in the student body I would see as
a failure to do a proper job.
The second level of defense lies in the
University community as a unit, interesting
and affecting the larger society. It is here
that the name and “good offices” of a
university may be beneficially utilized.
Further, laws which appear unfair, or
unjust may be better reformed by an
informed university community; e.g. a bill
in Albany calls for the cancellation of
financial assistance to any students
involved in unlawful assembly, “aggravated
harassment, criminal nuisance, fake
reporting of an accident or possession of

long-standing rule denying the freedom of
assemblage on campus to any national
fraternity or sorority.
Finally, the Student Rights
Coordinator, as the active representative of
the student polity in matters concerning

student rights, must assist in various ways
members of the academic community on a
personal level Safeguarding a student’s
rights may, and often does involve
individual action, ranging from getting a
student released on his own cognition,
arranging for bail monies, and arranging

Mr. Protas; Again, student awareness of
their rights both in the university and in
civil courts is of utmost importance.
Publications of this office for the purpose
of teaching and clarification of existing
laws will be issued. It is my contention that
if you are aware of your rights they cannot
easily be violated. It is the responsibility of
the Student Rights Coordinator to see that
everyone has the opportunity to be aware
of their freedoms and to know how to
protect them.

Mr. Protas; It is beyond the jurisdiction
of this office to give any legal advice.
However, it is the responsibility of the
Student Rights Coordinator to inform any
person as to where legal information or
counsel may be obtained.

-Goplerud, continued
trial dates. In this I can only hope to

follow, and perhaps refine parts of the
procedures initiated by Fred Hollander, the
current coordinator.
Considered as a whole, an informed,
concerned university community, acting as
a unit, or as individual components of that
system, provide the best protection for the

polity. Knowledge and understanding of
one’s legal rights is the key to
self-protection, and the dissemination of
that information is the foundation of the
Student Rights Coordinator.

The Spectrum: What, if anything, can next year’s Public Affairs Coordinator do to
help the local and national news media report on campus activities?

Mr. Arenstein: It is evident from reading

the Buffalo area newspapers or watching
the local newscasts that there is no really
effective means for the community to get
accurate, unbiased coverage of events on
this campus.
The basic problem is a lack of

Mr. Aronson: One of the main concerns
of the Public Affairs Coordinator is the
relations between the university and the
community. The news media can be very
instrumental in fostering a good
relationship because the picture they
present of the university is the one
generally accepted by the public.
Unfortunately, in recent years, the news

other things that go on in the university.
To change this situation I believe it is the
job of the Public Affairs Coordinator to
provide the media with accurate and
unbiased news of the activities on campus.
This can be accomplished in two ways.
The first is through the University News
Service. I will request that they assign a
reporter to all important campus events
and make the reports available to the news

The Spectrum: What sort of ‘image’ of the University should be presented to the
community-at-large?
Mr. Acenstein: At the present the public
clings to a stereotyped image of the
University and its students. The problem,
again, is a lack of communication. Working
with the results of a survey now being
taken to determine community feelings
■ towards the school, we will create a
program to change this image.

1 would implement weekly columns in
Buffalo’s newspapers to inform the public
of the University’s activities. I would
request student reporters to cover campus
activities, I would work in cooperation
with local radio and television stations to
develop student produced documentaries.
The emphasis in these endeavors will be
on the benefits the community is deriving
from the school. How many people know
about such programs as the Community
Aid Corps. College A’s X02 course, the
Indian Reservation program, and WBFO’s
satellite studio? These programs are not
presently being publicized.
I would like to open the campus for a

series of open houses whose primary goal
would be to make people aware of their
prejudices. Recognition is the first step in
overcoming the problem.
The student run news service would
provide the media with information about
these and other programs that will be
developed. In this way we can insure
prejudice free reporting.
Overall, the University must present
themselves as being aware of the
community’s problems. Together the
students and the community must work
together in a cooperation and a spirit that
will make our learning experience a more
worthwhile one.

Mr. Aronson: The university is many
things to many people, therefore it is
impossible for it to project any one
“image” to the community and the nation.
Because of this it is not my concern which
particular image the university presents to
the people but only that it presents a good
image.
This does not mean that I would expect
the university to stop the activities that
tend to bother the public. On the contrary
1 would like to show the public the reasons
behind these activities. Through this
understanding can come cooperation and a
better image for the university.
This understanding can be instituted in
many ways. The first is a continuous series
of open meetings and panel discussions
between students and community
members. When the lines of
communication are kept open between the
two, only understanding can be the result.
Secondly, cooperation between the
local media and the university is essential
to the image of the university. I would like
to provide the media with accurate reports
on all university activities through news
releases from the Public Affairs
Coordinator’s office and the University
News Service.
Also necessary to this understanding is
the Student Speakers Bureau. I would like
to continue this bureau, and because of its
success I believe we would be able to
remove it from administration control and
let the Student Association run it.
Once this understanding is developed it
is my hope that no matter which particular
image the university presents, it will be a
good one.

The Spectrum: What use will you make of the constitutionally-required monthly
newsletter?

Mr. Arenstein: The Student Association
requires that the Public Affairs
Coordinator publish a newsletter that will
inform the student body of association
activities.
This year approximately $1,600 was
allotted in the budget for this letter. Yet
how many students saw it or even bothered
to read it? 1 feel that there is a much
cheaper, more effective means of getting
this information to the student.
The Spectrum along with the other
student publications can provide the
Student Association with an inexpensive
and direct way of reaching the students. I
plan to ask for a column or even the
centerfold to be given over to this
newsletter at least once a month.
Included in the letter will be features,
articles and pictures about Student
Association activities. A more frequent
feature will inform students of events that
they should be aware of. The student body
must be effectively informed of what their
association is doing.
I feel that if the student reads this
newsletter he will realize that there are
worthwhile things for him to do. He will
begin to take an interest. The basic fault of
the government is that it is not a
government of the students.
The students must realize, in the same
way that the community must realize, that

for this is that the students don’t know

with various forms of distribution,
including mailing the newsletters out, to
find the best way to get the newsletter to

the impression that the University has

Basically, 1 would try to break down this
idea. I would give more attention to those
students who are interested in community
affairs and activities, and try to show the
citizens of Buffalo that today’s students
are sophisticated and responsible citizens
interested in working with the surrounding
community.
One way of making this more realistic is
to bring the people from the surrounding
community to the University Community.
I suggest that a week be set aside when
citizens could come to see what their tax
dollars are going towards. In this way they
could be given the opportunity to witness
the various student events (educational,
political, social). In order to provide an
opportunity for school children, especially
those from ghetto areas, to become
exposed to University life I would suggest
bussing them to the campus in hopes of
encouraging them to eventually seek a
University education. These are only two

ideas that I propose. I would be interested

Academic Affairs Coordinator.
What can next year’s Academic Affairs
Coordinator do to accelerate
implementation of the academic reforms
passed this year by the Faculty Senate?
The bulk of this years academic reforms
have already been set in motion. As
Assistant Academic Affairs Coordinator, I
suggested the creation of a committee to
deal with special problems arising from the
four course load and grading reforms. This
also has been implemented.
The most important results to come
from this years academic reforms have
been the thorough reevaluation and
reorganization of most departments. Next
year’s Academic Affairs Coordinators must
make sure these processes are continued.

What further academic reforms, if any
should be instituted next year?
In almost every facet of this university,
some amount of reform is needed. The
complexity of each proposed reform varies.
This is because of the number of people
each proposal will effect. I must stress that
the following is only a partial list of the
reforms 1 will work to achieve, nor is it
listed by priority.
The tenure issue is one of the most
pressing. I will work for:
1) all tenure committees to include 50%
student representation;
2) teaching ability be considered a
major factor in the grant of tenure;
3) the immediate creation of a tenured
position in interdisciplinary studies.
Because of these proposed innovations,
I also propose immediate and complete
review of those decisions made last
semester, specifically in the departments of
English, French. Classics, Speech and
Electrical Engineering.
Why are majors so sacred? I would
propose a degree in Liberal Arts. It would
allow the student the greatest amount of
flexibility. It is essentially a non-major!
Pass/Fail is here, but why an arbitrary
figure like 2S%? Students should have total
freedom in choosing their own system of
grading!

The Black Studies Program has been
approved. Now we must start work on a
Black Studies College. A Department of
Urban Studies and Development could be

reorganization of our testing procedures.

What is(are) the best mechanism(s) for

achieving academic reform?

In a huge multiversity, I believe reform
must be attempted from several directions.
Two of the most important are active
student participation in the committee
structure and the implementation of a
bicameral legislature.
Decisions such as the creation of new
curricula, faculty tenure and promotions,
and the hiring of department chairmen and
faculty provosts are all made in
committees. Students must have an equal
share in the decision making processes of
these committees. The committees of the
departments and the seven faculties must
be made open to student participation.
Reforms such as a change in the 25%
ruling on Pass/Fail must be implemented
by a student legislature. Such a legislature
would serve as an instrument for the
continuing implementation of academic
reforms. In this way, students can

collectively make known and initiate their

desires for academic reform. We no longer
need to rely on a Faculty Senate!

What part, if any, can the Colleges play
in implementing academic reform?
Students feel alienated and powerless.
This I believe is a valid generalization
attributable to this huge bureaucracy we
call a university. In this atmosphere,
reform is a difficult thing to achieve.
Hopefully, the college setup will alleviate
this.

Under the present circumstances, it is
difficult, if not impossible, for the faculty
to understand the students' needs and
desires. The faculty is almost completely
segregated from the student body. How
then can they possibly make valid decisions
relating to the needs of the student body?

What programs can be devised to help
foreign students here in their new

Alarm is running unopposed for
International Student Affairs Coordinator.

Mr.

In what specific areas can foreign
students provide unique contributions to
the University community?

Foreign students can provide unique
contributions to the university community.
The nine hundred and fifty students
representing more than sixty countries on
our campus are a vast resource of
information. These people bring with them
their cultures, values, ideas, and
philosophies on life and society. Through
informal programs, and through foreign
students, faculty and the community, ideas
and cultures could be exchanged. The more
you understand cultures of other countries,
the better you understand your own
culture.
The foreign students could be utilized
by involving faculty in their programs.
Professors and instructors could be
encouraged and asked to invite foreign
students to their classes to ask them about
their opinions when practical issues are
discussed in such, special courses related to
foreign culture as in history, political
science and humanities.
Foreign students could help to start
experimental courses with the help and
cooperation of American students. The
foreign students could be encouraged to
get involved and be active in student
government. They can provide the
university and the students with new ideas
about student movements and student’s
aspirations in their own societies and to
develop their life, both socially and
economically in their own countries.
Foreign students can help to open the
channels and facilitate the way for many
American students to go and study abroad
by providing them with information about
life, society and unifersities in other
countries.
Ideas, information and different values
can be channeled to the community, if the
community gets involved in foreign student
programs. The more understanding among
us, the safer our world will be.

The involvement of foreign students in
campus activities should start early in
September during the foreign student
orientation program. The Orientation
program should include not only
information on registration, academic
advisement, housing, immigration and visas
but should also concentrate on seminars,
group discussion, etc. to be co-sponsored
by various student organization on campus
in order to get foreign students involved,
interested and acquainted with the various
activities on the campus. Student politics

Foreign students can offer ideas and
share experiences and a new way of life to
the American students if this group is
encouraged to get involved in residential
colleges, especially on the new Amherst
campus.

In what ways, if any, can next year’s
International Student Affairs Coordinator
open lines of communication between
students here and at Universities in other
countries?
Students all over the world are searching
for relevance in education to make it more
meaningful to them as individuals. This is
not only an American criteria but rather a
universal one.
As students are looking for democratic
principles of their education. The fact that
there are more than six hundred foreign
students who went to universities abroad
and are now studying on our campus is a
great opportunity for exchanging ideas and
information about other universities
abroad.

As an International Affairs Coordinator,
I should explore the possibility of sharing
with other schools, basic traditions, and try
to open the lines of communication
between our school and the universities
abroad through the establishment of an
inter university communication process
with student publications distributed to
the various universities. We should ask for
other universities for a communications
media.
Students should get involved within the
council of International Studies, and
information and assistance should be
obtained especially from students who
want to study abroad.

The Student Association can sponsor
students from overseas to come and spend
a year at U.B. At the same time the other
university abroad will sponsor another U.B.
student for the same purpose. This could
be done through student organizations
rather than through government or any
other kind of exchange student programs.

The foreign student body should be
organized if we want to encourage foreign
students to get involved in this university
atmosphere. A foreign student organization
which will represent all foreign student

student population on the university
campus through such an organization,
foreign students can coordinate their

activities and sponsor more cultural and
social programs with other campus

As a coordinator I

shall see that foreign
student clubs will be encouraged to open
the doors for more Americans to
participate in their programs. I will do my
best to urge foreign students to join
campus organizations to share their values,
ideas and experiences with American
students. An attempt should be made to
set up dialogues where foreign and
American students can explore issues of
concern to both. Nationality groups should
be encouraged to expose their cidtures_on
the campus. I will plan such programs as
African or Latin American nights.
An International Week should be the
highlight of our program. Exhibits of
various handicrafts from all over the world,
shows, foods and distinguished visitors and
guest speakers from the diplomatic corps,
should be included in our program. The
Community as well as the university should
be involved in foreign student activities.

Peelle to resign post
as director of athletics
by Sharyn Rogers
Asst Sports Editor

James E. Peelle, director of Athletics at the State
University of Buffalo for the past 33 years, has announced
that he will resign his post as of Aug. 31. In September he
will assume teaching responsibilities as associate professor in
the newly-formed Department of Physical Education,
Recreation and Athletics.
In a reference to a column that
appeared in The New York Times
this past week, in which he was
quoted as saying that the Athletic
Department will face “chaos and
some ‘day of reckoning'.” Mr.
Peelle said: “We are in chaos now.

“Open ended” flicks
Godard’s work, at least on the level of intention,
is very close to Herriman’s. Godard has always been
interested in making “open ended” movies, movies
in which spontaneity hasn’t been frozen out in the
process of transferring “reality” to celluloid. Like
Herriman, Godard believes that meaning and form
must be synonymous, that a work over which the
creator exercised complete aesthetic control, guiding
the spectator’s vision and predetermining his
judgments and responses, isn’t worth looking at.
The type of American movie that intrigues
Godard is the “Grade B” American international
entertaining, machine-tooled rot with all
picture
the seams showing. (The latest of these, by the way,
is “3 in the Attic,” a titillating romp through
post-puberty with Christopher Jones and a trio of
schoolgirls who are determined to catch him with his
pants down.) Godard would argue that however
many deficiencies these cranked-out drive-in quickies
may have, at least they avoid the bloodless,
embalmed look of Anthony Harvey’s "Lion in
Winter.”
The blackest joke of all, however, is Godard’s
favorite rationalization for the excesses of his
fictional characters. Whenever guilt feelings threaten
to prevent them from enjoying their “games,” they
console themselves with the thought that “it’s only a
movie.”

CRC discusses action as
Beyer faces sentencing
The sentencing of Bruce Beyer,
of the Buffalo Nine
a
controversial and much-discussed
issue on campus
was a focal
point at Wednesday’s meeting of
the Committee for Real Change.
Jeff Levin, chairman of the
meeting, said: “Bruce Beyer is
being sentenced March 19. We
have to set up a committee for
mobilization. We must get people
down to the sentencing.”
“They the power structure
will be waiting for us downtown,”
added Pamela Gross of the
Buffalo Nine Defense Committee.
The question was raised:
"Can’t it | the sentencing] go the
other way if we have a lot of
people there?”
“It has been shown that in a
political trial you must show a
tremendous amount of support,”
replied one student.
Mr. Levin then outlined plans
for mass rallies every day prior to
the sentencing. As yet, no
speakers have been obtained.
Paul
Dominick, an
undergraduate student,
commented: “They don’t have to
speak on the Buffalo Nine. Any
far-left speakers to show where
we’re at are all right.”
He also suggested that students
from Niagara University “could
march as a group identifying
themselves at the sentencing.”
Marina Verkuil,
an
one

undergraduate student, said: “We
can use the sentencing of Bruce
Beyer as a means of rekindling the
emotions of the student body
which have been lessened by the
various tricky tactics of the

administration.”
“If the students are
demoralized by a heavy sentence,
we have to be ready to turn this
into militancy,” added another
student.
When Mr. Levin asked if
anyone is “opposed to having a
demonstration Wednesday,
regardless of the outcome of the
sentencing,” no one dissented.
Government restructuring
CRC then turned its attention
to
the question of the
restructuring of the University
government.

Reiterating one proposal, Jeff
Berger, an undergraduate student,
explained: “If a student gets 500
signatures for a proposal, all
classes are cancelled for a day
preferably Wednesday
and
governance classes are held that
day with all persons who attend
the classes receiving one credit. A
mass meeting, with speakers for
and against the proposal, is held in
-

-

the afternoon. The students then
vote on the proposal.”
“If it is passed, it is sent to the
Faculty Senate. If they don’t act
on it, we strike.

independence and have held
responsible positions in both
government and private sectors.
African women now are
absorbing some Western tradition
and culture, but they must not

lose their African tradition and
culture, she stressed.
Godfrey Karuri discussed the
African economic position after
independence. He indicated that
Africa is tremendously rich
potentially, but the capital
required for exploiting these
potentialities is lacking.
Various minerals have already
been discovered and mining is
progressing in Zambia, the Congo,
Nigeria, Ghana and Niger, as well
as other countries. Despite
immense mineral wealth, the
backbone of African economy
remains agriculture.
The main export of most
countries is produce; they are thus
the main suppliers of raw
materials to European nations, he
explained. These raw materials are
cheaply sold, but after processing
the final product, is imported at
very high prices
sometimes
amounting to exploitation.

To avoid this, more processing
industries should be set up, he
suggested. Thus, foreign
investment should be encouraged.
Mr. Karuri pointed out that Africa
receives the least economic aid
and urged the various bodies
concerned to give more aid to
Africa.
Xavier Zunzanyika discussed
education in Africa. He pointed
out the tremendous difficulties
encountered by the various
African governments in carrying
out their educational programs.

However, student voters Thursday and Friday will only

Apparently this year’s Coordinators in five important areas
have generated little interest in the work they’ve supposedly
done. Further, in nearly every instance, the” candidates are
not the products of trained Coordinator ‘staffs.’

Republication of all matter herein Is forbidden without the express consent
of the Editor-In-Chief
Editorial Policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief

armanents.

Politically, the ability to get supports for highly
dubious multi-billion-dollar projects such as the
ABM rests on two factors; first, exploitation of the
national feeling of insecurity that comes any time we
debate a proposal with a defense label attached to it;
and second, the perfectly legal and very substantial
rewards the military sector can bestow upon
communities and states whose congressmen are
cooperative.
I am not implying that supporters of the ABM
have sold their souls to the armament lobby. These
men, many of whom are among the most respected
of my colleagues, are acting in what they believe to

be the interest of their constituents. The creation

installations affect the

jobs and lives of thousands of

people. They seek, in supporting projects of that
sort, through a kind of rationalization, to serve their
constituents’ interest. So, let us face it, the

anti-ballistic-missile

system is little more than a
gigantic make-work welfare project sponsored by the
military-industrial complex. I charge that this kind
of artificial and unimaginative public spending is
degrading rather than strengthening our society, and
that it is doing so to an extent that more than offsets
any temporary military advantage we may gain from

it.

‘Don’t let Art History die’
To the editor:
Thanks to the good will of the Art History
faculty and chairman, the art history students have
seen the acceptance of their proposals for student
representation on faculty committees, institution of
inter-disciplinary and studio/art history seminars,
improved advisement facilities, etc.
We now find ourselves facing a threat greater
than lack of communication: extinction as a
department for lack of faculty. This year there are
three faculty members in the Art History
Department; next year we fear there will be two.
This year the teacher/student ratio is 1/112; next
year it can only be worse, in view of the increasing
student interest in art history on the part of majors
in English, Classics, Modern Languages, Philosophy,
History, etc.
Please write a short statement of support and
send it to the Art History Department, Foster 325,
or sign our petition in Norton. Don’t let Art History
die on this campus!

SHO clarifies position
To the editor.
Recent statements by the Student Health
Organization (SHO) have been misinterpreted by
certain faculty and students at the Medical School. It
is therefore appropriate that we clarify our position
on the Admissions Committee of the Medical
School. We find the current programs for black
admissions in the Medical School to be inadequate.
Rather, we suggest that the ultimate responsibility
for

encouragement

and

recruitment

of black

applicants lies with the black community. We have

consistently directed our remarks to the institution,
not to any individual member of the Admissions
Committee. In particular, the SHO repudiates any
personal attack upon the integrity of the Chairman
of the Admissions Committee.
We have not found any particular member of
the administration to be an “ally” in pressuring for
change. What we have sensed is a growing concern
among many faculty, students, and administration
over the low quality of health care that the poor of
our community receive. There is a present need for
reform in many areas of the Medical School., the
Admissions Committee being but one of those areas.
We are asking that each member of the medical
community assess his own list of priorities. We find

the improvement of the human condition to be our
highest priority, and we are working in medical care
as an area of concentration. It therefore seems trite
when certain “representatives” of medical faculty or
and the Medical School. Those who condemn the
tactics of crisis and confrontation would do better to
analyze the crisis that does indeed exist in the health
conditions among the poor. We are asked to be more
patient only by those who already have access to
superior health care, not by those in need of it.
The SHO shall continue to function for
constructive reform in the Medical School. We have
received both praise and criticism, and each
in “its
own way has motivated us to work ha'rder for what
we believe in.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The Spectrum O
Vol. 19. No. 45

by Linda Hanley
Feature Editor

It was quite a month October. Within
the space of two weeks, all three major
presidential candidates had come to grace
the Queen City. It was a time to put our
collective best fopt forward - certainly not

demonstrators wanted to show their
dissatisfaction with American policies and
politics. The community wanted to display
that old time Niagara Frontier hospitality
to the Presidential candidates.
The Humphrey appearance was loud but
it was the first and only such
peaceful
confrontation of the series. At the Nixon
rally, three demonstrators were arrested.
After the Wallace gathering broke up,

Presidential candidates also arrived in
Buffalo around the same time. Peace and
Freedom Party candidate, Eldridge Cleaver
flew in Oct. 9. Freedom and Peace Party
standard bearer, Dick Gregory, was due to
appear on the 17th. Apparently, enough
was enough for the city of Buffalo
and
particularly its police department.
On the night of Oct. 16, they made
their appearance. A small group of young
people were gathered in the Urban Action
Association office at 943 West Ferry St.
Some of them were working on leaflets to
be distributed at the next day’s rally
protesting the shooting of Richard Giff.
During the evening, some stood outside on
the sidewalk. There they saw one or more
police cars make about 25 trips past the
office in the space of two hours.

broke them. ,
William Rumsey, inquisitive at seeing
the display of police on the corner, went
back into the office to get his jacket and
began walking toward Main St. On the
way, he saw eight policemen running in his
direction. As he turned behind him to see
what they were after, he was grabbed.
When they began hitting him, he told them
it was unnecessary
“I’m not resisting.”
They then told him he was under arrest
and took him to a police car on the north
side of West Ferry. He Says he was pushed
into the back seat with such force that he
landed on the opposite side. He then was
grabbed by the hair and had his head
shoved against the window several times.
On the way to the Cold Spring Station
House, Mr. Rumsey says he was

kicked.

The six were arrested the same night but
in three separate places. They rode to the
station house in different cars. Once there,
they were often in separate rooms. COukl it
be that six young men sat down and
thought up a horror story account of their
arrests? Or perhaps could it be that such a
thing as police brutality does exist in the
city of Buffalo? Quite possibly, the only
people who will ever know are those
unfortunate enough to experience it.

.

More beatings later
Having rounded up the kids on the
street, the police proceeded to the Urban
Action Association office where Bill Mault
was arrested coming out of the layout
room. Also working in the back on the
printing press and arrested at the office was
Michael Martin.
At the Cold Spring Station House, Jim
West was beaten on the head with balsa
wood, and had the Eldridge Cleaver button
he was wearing pulled from him and
jumped on by policemen.

While on the floor, lying face down, one
policeman put his knee on Kronberg’s back
and attempted to lift him up by putting his
nightstick under the suspect’s chin.
Another policeman tried out his artistic
ability on Mr. Kronberg’s chest using a
pocket knife. The following day, the
accused displayed the finished work to the
press. He also had hairs plucked from his
chest and was beaten on the head, despite
protest from another policeman, “Not in
the head,”

brought in, he was thrown to the ground,
and a policeman began cutting his long hair
with a straight razor. It was later held to
his throat, according to Mr. Lenk, and he
was asked how he would Uke to have it
there.

Bill Rumsey was searched upon arrival,
and then pushed into another room where
a swinging melee was going on. “Here’s
another one,” someone shouted and
policemen began hitting him on the back.

He also had his head rammed against
that of Michael Martin, who had to be
taken to the hospital.

District Attorney Michael Dillon called
for an investigation. “In order that the
Grand Jury might conduct a full, fair and
impartial hearing and be free to take any
appropriate action all witnesses will be
asked to execute waivers of immunity,” he
said. They wouldn’t, and consequently,
there was no Grand Jury hearing.
Appeals for an investigation to the
Buffalo Common Council, Governor
Rockefeller and Attorney General Louis
Lefkowitz proved futile.

“The final disposition of the complaints
rests with the court,” said Felicetta.
Monday, one month to the day that the
Buffalo Nine trial began, the cases of four
of the six persons arrested the night of Oct.
16 will go to the courts.

Buffalo State students moving
toward new c
by Greg Lube!ski
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

Students at the State University College at Buffalo voted late
last week and early this week for
15 student representatives to deal
With the Faculty By-Laws
Committee on the issue of a new
college legislature.
The student body also voted
on an advisory referendum which
calls for a new college senate with
equal faculty and student representation. The referendum was intended to put student support behind the 15 representatives in

their efforts for increased student
power.
The representatives will meet
with nine faculty members, with
each group having equal say in the
final decision.
Voting, which was originally
scheduled for March 6 and 7, was
extended to Monday and Tuesday
of this week.
The Student Association,
which conducts all elections on
campus, gave added voting time to
the students because of the
lengthy list of 68 candidates and
the complexity of the
referendum, which outlines the
proposed College Senate and its
committees.
The referendum calls for a
college government based on a
50-50 representation plan, which
would have one house with equal
numbers of faculty and student
members.
The campaign for more student
power on the Elmwood Ave.
campus began in late February
when the Student Ad Hoc
Committee on By-Laws, led by
Barry Rekoon, held a student
rally to review the faculty by-laws
recommendations. These by-laws
would set up a College Senate
with more than 35 faculty
members and administrators and
only six students.
The committee demanded that
the College president. Dr. E.K.
Fretwell, reject the proposed
by-laws, Dr. Fretwell asked that
an elected student group work
with the faculty until an
acceptable solution is reached.
The student group will be the 15
representatives.

During the interval between
the original Ad Hoc Committee
meeting and the elections of
student representatives, several
groups have been working in
support of the referendum.
The two most active groups
have been the Peace and Freedom
party and the Afro-American
Society, who have put forth
recommendations for new by-laws
and distributed various literature.
Paul Ladner, president of the
Peace and Freedom party,
advocates a SO-SO government but
believes that faculty should have
power over these matters
pertinent to themselves, and that
students should have sole power
over student problems.
Only those matters concerning
the entire College should be
decided jointly by a
student-faculty government. Mr.
Ladner feels.
In a P and F publication
concerning the referendum, the
party states that ‘it is a must to
ally student and faculty forces in
such a Senate
The function of
such a body would be to bring
autonomy to the faculty and the
students.”
Largest in city
Mr. Ladner calls for students to
try for “better relations with
faculty.” But the P and F
president said the students must
first have a “profound
understanding” of their present
lack of power.
...

Mr. Ladner emphasized that
the State University of
Buffalo moves to Amherst, State
University College will be the
largest college in the city. If the
students are going to be an
integral part of the community
they must first have an equal
voice in the college government,
he says.
If the students and faculty can
agree on a 50-50 College Senate,
the plan must be sent to President
Fret well for approval. Then the
plan would be sent to the
Chancellor of the State University
system for final approval.
Finally, it would be returned
to Dr. Fretwell for imlementation.
Working closely with the Peace
and Freedom party to implement
change at Buffalo State is the
Afro-American Society.

Dennis Dean, vice president of
the group of more than 30
members, is working to create a
committee to look after the
interests of the black students and
have veto power in matters
concerning black students in the
proposed College Senate.
He also favors the creation of a
Division of Black Studies, equal to
other College departments. Mr.
Dean expressed the opinion that
the new 50-50 proposal would aid
black students’ demands because
it would be “more representative”
of them.

Can Nixon make hard choices?
by I.F. Stone’s Weekly

President Nixon has given three signals
which provide some gleam of hope. One
was the substitution at his first press
conference of “sufficiency” for
“superiority” as the standard for judging
America’s armed forces; coupled with this
was his explanation that the less abrasive
term would make arms negotiation easier.
The second signal was the sending of the
Nuclear Non-Proliferation Pact to the
Senate before his trip to Europe. This
placed priority on arms talks with the
Russians. Had he gone to Europe first, this
would have meant giving the wishes of the
in particular West
NATO powers
priority, consulting them in
Germany
advance, allowing the West Germans, who
dislike the treaty, a kind of veto. By
sending the treaty to the Senate first,
Nixon was going abroad not so much to
“consult,” as to allay misgivings, a very
different sort of operation, The meaning of
the trip was made plainer when the new
President told a private meeting with
French leaders that limiting the arms race
was of "enormous importance” but had to
be negotiated by the two superpowers
alone. The third signal is the
extraordinarily restrained way that the
Nixon Administration is taking the new
enemy offensive in Vietnam; normally
hawkish U.S. civilian and military
spokesmen in Saigon seem, from a close
reading of the dispatches, to be under

French workers strike
Nearly 10 million
PARIS (UP1) French workers, many chanting “Down
with de Gaulle;” left their jobs in a
nationwide strike that closed the country’s
life to a crawl. President Charles de Gaulle
charged the unrest was a new offensive
threatening the French franc and the
national economy.
De Gaulle spoke to the nation after tens
of thousands of strikers surged through the
streets of Paris and other cities in the most
massive protests against the 78-year-old
president since last spring’s student-worker
upheaval that nearly toppled him from
power.

bands of militant students
clashed with police in the wake of the
protest march.
De Gaulle said that until the one-day
nationwide walkout, France had been well
on the way to recovery from the disastrous
results of the uprising of last May and
June.
Roving

“But we have just seen a new Offensive
unleashed, led by the same attackers,
supported by the same accomplices, being
the same means and threatening to break
down our currency and our national
economy,” de Gaulle said.
De Gaulle made his address only after
striking electrical workers resumed full
electric power service to the nation.
Electricity
had been disrupted
intermittently since Monday night, public

transportation paralyzed and mail service
all but halted by the walkout, called to
demand higher wages.

The French president vowed he and the
nation would foil what he called the new
attempt to throw France back into the
chaos of last spring.
His statements on the labor unrest were
made during an appeal to the nation to
support him in an April 27 referendum on
a regional decentralization program and
reform of the Senate. De Gaulle said this
reflected the nation’s need to restore "the
condition of man” in *the complexity of
modern industrial society.

In urging the nation to ’back the
referendum which he said would help
transform French society, de Gaulle
implied that the choice in the voting was
between him and chaos.
“By the nature of things and present
events,” de Gaulle said, “the referendum
will be, for the nation, the choice between
progress and disorder.”
He said those who oppose “this effort at
transforming national life" are those who
seek to “imprison our people one day in
the prison of totalitarianism.”
De Gaulle did not mention the
communists by name, but he left little
doubt that they were the ones he thought
were menacing his plans for economic
'

recovery.

wraps imposed by Washington.

Nixon a leftist tool?
While the President was abroad, ADA’s
vice-chairman, Arthur Schlesinger, Jr. held
a press conference here to outline its
program. With its strong emphasis on
blocking the ABM and fighting the
influence of the military-industrial
complex we are in complete agreement.
But when Schlesinger said: “No new
President in memory has made so little
effort in his first weeks in office to define
his purposes,” we wonder whether he did
not speak too soon. A better index of what
is happening may be furnished by the
speeches Barry Goldwater has begun to
make against the Non-Proliferation Pact,
opening a rift between him and the new
Republican Administration, From a speech
to the University Club in New York Feb.
22 by Goldwater, 1 lift a delicious sentence
for the future historian. “The push for
ratification,” Goldwater said, “is part of
the emotionalism with which the Radical
Left would like to conduct all of our
:odav’s
Id.” Bi dy

win its ratification, he must look for
support to those who opposed him in the
past. The most dramatic evidence of this
reversal is furnished by the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee under Fulbright,
which is favorably reporting the treaty to
the Senate while the Armed Services
Committee under Stennis has scheduled
hearings designed to put stumbling blocks
in the way of ratification.
Symington shifts sides
The liberal committee is on Nixon’s side
while the right-wing one is swinging against
him. Each is invading the jurisdiction of
the other. Armed Services muscled in on
the treatv on the excuse that it wanted to
examine the “military implications” while
one Foreign Relations subcommittee under
Gore has launched hearings into the ABM
and another under Symington into our
commitments and bases abroad on the
ground that they wish to examine the
foreign policy implications of matters
which normally are the concern of Armed
Services. The latter’s chairman, Stennis, is
the Pentagon’s No. 1 ally in Congress while
Fulbright is militarism’s foremost critic.
The most significant by-play in this
struggle is that Symington, the only
senator on both committees, a former Air
Force Secretary, has shifted from a
champion of the military to a disillusioned
opponent. Normally, by seniority,
Symington would have become chairman
of the powerful Preparedness
subcommittee when Stennis succeeded
Russell as chairman of the full Armed
Services committee. But rather than allow
a critic of the military so vital a post,
Stennis is holding ontoi, both
chairmanships. Symington knows where
the bodies are buried because he helped in
( the past to bury them.
Nixon is going to find it much harder to
change his course at home than he has his
“image” abroad. Some hard choices lie
ahead. The first decision is the ABM, and a
related question is what to do about the
Goldwaterite he chose as Secretary of
Defense. Laird is campaigning for a
build-up not only of an ABM but of
strategic offensive missiles. “We are now
second to the Soviet Union” in nuclear
strength, Goldwater said in the speech
from which we have already quoted, and
Laird is doing his best to create the same
impression. Nixon can hardly expect the
Russians to take missile talks seriously if
Nixon allows Laird to go on propagating

such dangerous nonsense. Indeed it is
difficult to understand why Nixon wanted
Sen. Jackson as Secretary of Defense and
took Laird as second choice if he planned
seriously to negotiate some brakes on the
missile race.
Jackson on Meet the Press March 2
produced a new series of nightmares to
support the Sentinel anti-ballistic missile
system. Since the Chinese menace is
wearing thin, Jackson substituted some
new fantasies about an FOBS system he
said the Russians had as a “first strike”
weapon against our bombers! A first strike

Undergraduate major in
Black Studies created
A motion to create a program
in Black Studies which would be
offered as an undergraduate major
was approved by the Policy
Committee of the Faculty of
and
Social
Sciences
Administration.
Hollis Lynch, director of Black
Studies Programs, explained that
the program will study “aspects of
the Afro-American experience
with a view to providing a proper
appreciation of the contribution
of black Americans to American
history and culture.
“Such appreciation and
understanding, he continued, “is
a vital first step in dispelling the
distorted and derogatory image of
the black man in the minds of
white America and in producing
mutual respect between black and
white.”
Dr. Lynch stressed that the
program will try “to foster better
intergroup feelings, so that the
black man will be treated as a
human being, with dignity and
respect . . .There can be peace
only when there is equality of
opportunity. This will have to
happen if there is to be intergroup

”

harmony.”

The program states as one of
its objectives; “To provide on
campus a psychological home for
black students,” and to encourage
“the expression of the
Afro-American subculture in
music, drama, art and humor.”

Program chief
Dr. Hollis Lynch
Indicating that the program
will not be limited to problems of
the Afro-American, Dr. Lynch
emphasized that it will try to
suggest solutions by working
closely with
the black
community.
Dr. Lynch maintained that
although the black student will
get an emotional as well as an
educational experience, interested

white students will be needed to
“teach their peers, and remove the
myths, prejudices and
distortions.”
The Black Studies program will
have two major divisions: the
social sciences and the humanities.

College proposed
An additional proposal to the
Black Studies Program is the
formation of a Black Studies
College. Dr. Lynch explained that
the faculty of the college would
include “graduate students and
counselors to provide the extra
academic and psychological help
which some black students might
need.”
He added that “the college will
be the focus for black cultural
activities on the campus . . .It will
aim at convincing the black
community that it has an
important stake in the University.
It will carry on a continuous
dialogue with leaders of the black
community, and seek always to
show itself responsive to the needs
aspirations of that
and
community.
“Although a program designed
curricularly to combat racism and
which involves some work and
study in the black community is
likely to attract the radical, the
high-minded as well as the

action-oriented

students,”

Dr.

Lynch contends that there is no
danger of the program becoming a

political issue.
“While we will study radical

Q Why are Allenhurst residents charged more for their facilities
than students in other resident halls?
A: The room charge for Allenhurst residents is actually $10 a
semester less than the charge for all other residence hall students. The
difference is based on the fact that on-campus residence hall students
receive additional telephone and post office services.
Q: Where can a student rent or use a typewriter on an hourly basis
fur doing short assignments or letters?
A: Barbara Emilson. chairman of student services for the Student
Association, said: "Students may rent typewriters from the supply
room of the University Bookstore at the following rates: One week
$2.40 + tax; one month
$6 + tax, three months
$15 + tax.
Arrangements may also be made to rent typewriters by the day at the
Student Association office."

Q; Under the proposed system of registration for the 1969-70
academic year, will there be any means of assuring a student who must
lake a course to meet his degree requirements of being given
preference over those who do not need the course? Will students who
have taken the first semester of a two-semester course get registration
preference in the second semester?
A: The plan now under consideration provides for students to
register at the beginning of the fall term. Class cards will be available
from the individual departments who will be in attendance in the
registration hall. Seniors will register first, then juniors, sophomores
and freshmen. Therefore, in effect, students who need specific courses
for graduation will be given first choice of that course. Various plans
are also being discussed whereby class openings can be reserved for
students who wish to complete the second semester course. In any
event, special individual cases will be resolved by the individual
department.

Polanski, now famous for
Knife in the Water, Repulsion,
and Rosemary’s Baby, contributes
a 15-minute short called “The Fat
and The Lean.”
Peter Sellers and His Goon
Show appear in Richard Lester’s
ten-minute film, “The Running,
Jumping, and Standing Still
Film,” Along with this comic
short, he gave form to the
feature-length films. Hard Day’s
Night and The Knack.
“Jules and Jim” and “The 400
Blows” are two of the main works
of film critic and director
Francois Truffaut. In the New
Cinema series, he presents “Les
Mistons”
a quick short on two
lovers.
Another cinematic morsel
offered in this film feast is a pop
art cartoon "-called
“Enter
Hamlet,” which illustrates each
word of the famous soliloquy
from “Hamlet” spoken by
Maurice Evans.
These motion pictures
collectively have won almost
every major short film award in
the world. In this New Cinema
collection the film buff can view
the personal works of some of the
more established names and also
get an introduction to some
brilliant new talents. Many of
these young artists are as yet
unknown in this country, so this
is a good opportunity to meet the
distinguished directors of the 70s.
Show times on Friday and
Saturday are 3,5,7,9,11 p.m. and
Sunday 3,5,7 and 9 p.m.

Star-Spangled Girl
by Richard Perimutter

Spectrum Theater Reviewer

Far be it from me to put down
the powers of comedy and its
awesome potential in today’s
flickering theater and society. In
fact the theatrical comedy often
may pack more message, effect
and influence than its tragic
counterpart. One branch of
comedy
satire
may very well
be the single most effective
weapon for change and awakening
in the more staid elements of our
-

-

society.
Such comedies as “Macbird,”
or “The Story Teller from Flea
Street," are among the better
offerings of modern theater seen

pace is

certainly quick enough so that we
do not get bored but we also

don’t get tickled.
Our three characters, clad
mainly in red, white and blue,
form an amusing situation
comedy. Their unusual reactions
to each other are exaggerated and
satirized and therein lies the fun.
Emotion is registered in strange
ways: our characters do not even
bother to rub noses, they just
smell each other.
•*&gt;

Mr. Simon, as a general rule,
wields his mighty comic pen with
a decisive flair. It is almost as if he
writes with a Jeffersonian feather
quill with which he tickles his
audience incessantly. But when he
wrote “The Star-Spangled Girl” I
fear that poor Simon’s feather
quill wilted.
Gone is the spontaneity, the
hilarity, the hysterical wiggles and
giggles of Barefoot in the Park,
Odd Couple, and others. The play
Ls not really bad but lacks the
convulsive comedy that is
expected. There are numerous
strikingly witty banters and
routines but many of these are
ill-timed. Director Tom Sawyer
(no it’s not April Foals’ Day) does
not appear to have taken
maximum advantage of Simon’s
antics and several potential

the perfect straight-man facial
expressions for the part, but
swallows his words and some of
the humor that goes with them.
Norman, the staff of “Fallout”
magazine, is played humorously
well by Gene Nye, a natural
comic. Barbette Tweed as Sophie
handles the southern drawl fairly
well but turns it into a monotone

throughout.
The set by Russell Drisch is an
elaborate and appropriate
potpourri of inco npletcd piles of
junk: garbage cans, tires, bicycles,

penants, and bulletin boards. Mr.
Drisch has succeeded in making
the set look, let’s say, lived in.
The motto of the magazine’s
editor is worth mentioning, “I like
everything about America except
people who like everything about
America.”

Teaching assistants may
organize political union
A union to include University
students and teachers as well as
Buffalo area laborers may be
created as the result of discussions
held March 4 by 20 teaching
assistants from eight departments.
This union would attempt to
establish a decisive role in building
a democratic society through
community and University
interaction. The predominant
issues would be wages, hiring and
firing, job conditions and
department programs.
A spokesman for the union,
Joseph
graduate student
Ferrandino, claimed that teaching
assistants on this campus are
actually “laborers.” He explained
that they are being paid
$2500-3000 for doing work for
which a faculty member would
receive $10,000-15,000. He added

that there is “not much going for
the teaching assistant” in terms of
security, wages and job conditions
and he sees the union as a vehicle
for improving these problems.

Mr. Ferrandino predicted that
the union would function as a
political organization and would
“exert pressure in terms of getting
changes more relevant to a
meaningful education.” If a
cohesive union were established,
Mr. Ferrandino claims that it
could help students to discuss and
decide issues of curriculum and
fund allocations, for example.
He added that the union would
definitely be concerned with the
issue of an integrated work force
on the Amherst campus, in order
to express the members’ solidarity

with the black workers.

night, a Publicity Committee was
organized. In addition a Steering
Committee was established to
draw up a position paper
elaborating the five concerns of
the union. This will be presented
at a mass meeting of teaching and
research assistants later this
month.
“The

whole perspective isn’t
a typical American
trade union,” said Mr. Goss. He
explained that the union would
work both for its members and
for those students with common
interests. The strength of the
union, he concluded, lies in a
strong support among the
students.

The
CHICKEN
BROASTER

With the successful adoption of a mandatory $12.S0 athletic fee,
people believe that the current hassling over the structure,
reorganization and scope of the Athletic Department is over. Nothing
is further from the truth.
To cite just one example, James Peelle has announced that he
intends to resign his post as athletic director, a job he has held for 33
years, to devote full time to his teaching duties. Thus, in the space of a
little more than six months, the two top men in the Athletic
Peelle and Doc Urich will have left.
Department
This immediately raises the question of who will take over the
post of director of the proposed Department of Physical Education,
Recreation and Athletics.
Another area where there are decisions which have to be made is
athletic scholarships.
The University-wide Committee on Athletics recommended “that
the University phase back to its previous policy of basing grants-in-aid
for student athletes upon academic promise and financial need.
Financial aid is intended to provide deserving students the resources
necessary to undertake baccalaureate study; their academic promise
and fiscal needs must be paramount considerations for assistance.”
What does this all mean?
It means that sometime in the future, the exact date isn’t
specified, the grant-in-aid program for intercollegiate athletics, which
now covers all the costs (i.e., athletic scholarships) will change to a
need-formula program where aid is given only on the basis of financial
need and academic potential.
There are two questions which have to be answered before this
transition can take place. First, how flexible will the need-formula be?
Second, when will the transition actually take place?
Bob Deming, head football coach, argues that the need-formula
“must be flexible if the present level of competition is to be
maintained.” He added that he wouldn’t mind if the need-formula
reverted back to the policy employed under Dick Offenhamer whereby
“one-third of the people brought in could be on full scholarship
regardless of need.”
Presently, there are 87 men on scholarships totaling $120,306.
Excluding graduating seniors, this figure comes to $106,316, which
includes $9180 to cover the expected rise in dormitory costs, Deming
expects to spend between $25,000 and $31,500 in scholarships for
incoming freshmen. Thus, the total figure for football grant-in-aids
next year is between $131,000 and $137,000.
It’s interesting to note, in way of comparison, that in the last year
the need-formula was in effect (1963-64), $25,950 was spent for
incoming freshmen. The year prior to that, the figure was $28,600.
On the question of when the need-formula will be put into effect,
Deming stated that the transition shouldn’t be made until the schedule
is adjusted. “For the next two years, all the teams have grants-in-aid. It
isn’t until 1971 /when we play Boston University, that we play a team
on the need-formula.”
He stressed that whatever is decided for the future, to have
scholarships or not, the program has to be realistic right now to face
the present level of competition.

It will be the task of the University-wide Committee on Athletics
to determine the answers to these questions as well as to a host of
others. For example, why (alumni pay close attention) should anyone
get a scholarship because of his athletic ability? The only reason why
period. I
anyone should get a scholarship is because of financial need
have yet to hear an acceptable answer for the continuance of athletic
scholarships.
The committee clearly has a mandate to enact the reforms which
it proposed. It’s time to stop putting down the Athletic Department
and start making the changes that must be made.

"THE PRESIDENTS"

Pag* Nina

�The

grump
by Steese

Once again the tumult and the shouting has died
and another glorious revolution has died aborning.
When one looks at the wall posters still adorning
Norton’s halls, it is hard to believe that the energy
which seemed to be apparently abundant such a
short time ago has already died, Or at least has been
channeled to more acceptable areas of endeavor. One
of the reasons this column did not appear last week
I would like to thank the person who noticed that
was that I was suffering from such a
it didn’t
massive dose of confusion on the issues and situation
in general that I was delighted to cop out and not
-

say anything.

/

Part of the confusion came from a question I
had about the base of the movement, its breadth and
its staying power. With all due respect to those
involved it seems reasonably apparant how broad
and how deep activism was running on this campus,
when examined by the cold gray light of Wednesday
March 14 Not that there were not certain
accomplishments and the potential for a great many
more laid down during this hectic period in the past
two weeks. It is just that it was not a revolution, and
that so calling it was a travesty.
Dissatisfaction, no matter how expressed, may
be a necessary ingredient for a revolt . . . and the
lack of widespread dissatisfaction on this campus
probably had a great deal to do with the rapid
demise of activism . . . but dissatisfaction and the
expression of it are not now, and never will be, the
only characteristics of a revolution. Given a certain
level of native intelligence it becomes very hard to
listen to a great quantity of polemics on the subject
of how bad the society is.
We live in it, we are of it, and while it may be
necessary to educate somewhat, a great deal of the
University community is well aware that there is
considerable trouble in the United States today.
What is more important to some of us is what is
going to be done about said problems now afflicting
us. I think keeping Norton Hall open all night is a
great idea that could well lead to a more basic sense
of University community. I would support
wholeheartedly the idea of getting the FSA, since it
seems to like to support losing food operations, to
open an all-night-on-campus coffee klatch room here
in Norton and writing it off as a student service.
Norton for the people by all means, but I submit
that it was as obvious to others as it was to me that
talk of “liberating” Norton was so much balderdash.
The administration of this University
approaches diabolicism in its cleverness on some
issues, Norton Hall was kept open all night one night
under the ringing cry of “liberation.” So the
administration left the building open and put a few
people on night duty . . .as they should be convinced
to do again. And by simply letting the building
remain open and offering no opposition, the cry of
“liberation" became as empty as some of the other
platitudes that were being bandied about so freely.
Perhaps it is possible to transform this society
without a revolution. In fact, from the track record

of American radicals, if there is going to be any
successful change, ft is going to have to be done by
whoever the hell they are. 1 have
the moderates
yet to figure out what I am. My view of the nature
and depth of the changes necessary to really make
this society work as it should, to live up to its
inherent promise, should make me a radical. But
being in my cold, fearful heart a bit of a coward, if 1
am to become involved in.a revolution, I would like
a chance to win'it. And even if it were lost, I would
like to believe that it helped accomplish something.
This type of movement seems to be impossible
to find. We have people making war with words. It is
almost a mockery to use Che Guevara’s name as a
rallying cry for radicalism which has no apparent
interest in pragmatism. I suppose that the moderates
do owe a classic debt of antithesis to the radicals. It
is only after you see what might happen if you don’t
move, that you do move. Unfortunately for the
fringe elements on this campus, the administration is
already groping in the same direction that the radical
politicians would insist we have to go. Groping being
especially appropriate since both sides sense that
there is something wrong arid have no idea of how to
solve it, really. So we have nine million suggestions
of how to get where there is reasonable consensus
that we want to go . . .sorry, wasn’t ever accurately
able to figure out quite what that was . , , and we
will try tinkering until we get there.
Just as this revolution was tinkered to death. It
seems somewhat doubtful if a revolution has ever
been built on ideological frustration alone. Certain
basic problems must exist and be exploited by those
who wish to cause the change. It should be noted
that those doing the greatest complaining , . .like
me . . .are doing so for intellectual reasons. Those
with gut reasons for frustrations tend to be very
cautious of those who base their arguments on
principle. lf 1 you will note the success of the latest
intellectual revolt on this campus, it seems
reasonably apparent why some of the more militant
blacks would rather go their own way. Tinkering
may very well eventually cause remission of some of
the more glaring social ills, if the system lasts long
enough to permit such extended mickey mouse. But
tinkering is the last thing that those committed to
real lasting change want, so they cry revolt. So they
yell a lot while the moderates stqy silent and the
other wing (wind?) of society screams about the flag,
mother and the “American way.”
-

The fascinating thing that only the future will
tell
us
is whether or not the
“flagmothaws” . . .(work on it a minute) are going to
be able to so retard the continual tinkering process
that the whole thing blows up or no. There would be
a subtle justice if a wave of repression based on a
fear of a revolutionary combine should actually
cause such an organization to appear. Especially
when, if we assume this campus to be a microcosm,
it seems that if you ignore the problem . . .at least
the problem of radicals on a basically moderate
campus . . it just goes away. In which there is
somewhere a moral, I am sure, and if you will excuse
me, 1 will go look for it.

‘Hunger

Continue the center
If anything about the past two weeks can be labeled a
success by nearly everyone in the University, it would have
to be the Communications Center.
Organized spontaneously by a group of concerned
students, the Center very quickly established itself as a
legitimate, fair and independent information source, filling a
very large credibility and organizational vacuum left by inept
student governments.
We agree with Mr. Schwab that ideally every function
the Center performed (and continues to perform) should be
assumed by the office of the Public Affairs Coordinator of
the Student Association.
This, however, ignores the importance of coordinating
information from graduate students or faculty, as well as the
immediate needs of the University. Clearly, such activity as
distributing position papers, scheduling discussions and
providing people within and without the University with
procedural or factual information must be the top priorities
of the new Public Affairs Coordinator elected next week.
Meanwhile, the Communications Center is performing a
valuable function, and we urge the Sub Board to support it,
at least for the rest of this year.

Athletic imperatives
The referendum was only the beginning.
There are still some very important issues to be resolved
the
reevaluation of State University of Buffalo athletics.
in
Probably foremost on the list is the vacancy at the top of
the ‘new’ department of Physical Education, Recreation and
Athletics. Until a skilled administrator is found to fill that
spot to give the program the emphasis in all three areas, the
‘change’ will be in name only. We urge the University to
utilize as soon as possible the University-wide committee,
the Faculty Senate committee and the Student Athletic
Review Board as a search committee for a chairman for the
new department. We further suggest that they look not for
experience in University athletics (which traditionally means
undue emphasis on ‘big-time intercollegiate athletics’), but
rather in the fields of public recreation administration and
education.
Recent statements by the new football coach are
encouraging in their hints of fiscal competence and
factors new around athletics here. However, his
cordiality
suggestion that the new University policy to “phase back”
grants-in-aid really means that one-third of the
intercollegiate athletes will remain on athletic scholarships is
a dangerous interpretation of what we think is a clear-cut
policy. The policy clearly states that scholarships will be
phased back to granting scholarships only “upon academic
promise and financial need,” rather than athletic ability.

After a half-hour of scratching out lead
sentences, I am left with the conclusion that
following Tondoleo Lubitsch by a sparse two issues
is a chore beyond my limited capabilities. Therefore,
those of you reading this space for erotic stimulation
are hereby freed to either flip back to the classified
ads or read the editorials.
What will be discussed here is neither erotic or
stimulating
it is pure! ly personal antagonism. But
one of the nicest things about having a column
(having occupied one now for several lines) is the
opportunity tobo be vindictive in print and get away
with it. It is with a great deal of enthusiasm that I
return to the style to which I am accustomed
and
become, once more, a hate monger. Target for this
week is my good friends at the Bursar’s Office.

helpful people who staff it. This week they really hit
a new high point.

permanent address when that address
happens to be in New York City.
True, this is the jet age, but in nearly three years
here I have yet to meet a student who commutes by
the 7 a.m. United out of LaGuardia. I don’t mind
particularly when they send the tuition bills home,
but when it comes to requests to sign for a
scholarship check. I’d actually prefer to receive it
myself. Now some may say this is being picky
1
call it distrust, particularly when the letter is dated
the 26th of February, received in New York on the
7th of March, and tells me that I must sign for my
check by the 5th of the same month!
Perhaps it is best just to shrug these things off,
and not look for explanations. I often wonder how
much saner I might be if I just had faith and trusted
in the little people who man the quonset huts in the
same way one does not question mysticism.
But every time I talk myself into this position, I
am prevented from complete surrender by little
voices which remind me of such people as Callahan
McCarthy. Mr. McCarthy lives in Maine, and late last
year humbly requested his state’s Motor Vehicle
Bureau to put his initials on his license plates. Where
the form asked for a second choice, he wrote
“none.” And sure enough, that’s what the license
plates he received read
“NONE.” Bureaucracy, it
seems, is not peculiar to the college campus.
On the other hand, universities and Motor
particularly in Buffalo
Vehicle Bureaus
seem to
dish out quite a lot of it.
Last October, while trying to obtain the
registratio on for my car, I got as far as the last
window when an arthritic finger pointed at one’ form
and the Voice of Authority told me all my
credentials were invalid because one was “mutilated”
(an entry has been crossed out and corrected). By
rights, I should have been beaten to the floor with
exhaust pipes, having violated the third rule of the
IBM age; “Do not fold, spindle, or mutilate.”
But my sentence was light
I got to talk to the
Deputy. Like Mickey Rooney going before Fighting
Father Flannigan in “Boys Town," I found myself in
the position of pleading for a second chance.
I had needed the registration, just like now I
need my scholarship check
but the real urge in
these situations is just to ask: What the hell for?

accept this offer."
U.S. officials are not noted for political acumen.
At present, food and arms arrive at the same airstrip.
If the enemy wants to separate my food (that keeps
me physically alive) from my arms (that keeps me
politically alive in an effort he has forced to civil war
proportions), maybe 1 will ask myself “why.”
He denies my rights as a citizen of Nigeria
(30,000 Ibos slaughtered before Biafran “secession”)
but refuses to let me be a citizen of the Biafra I have
constituted to keep my rights (claiming my
“secession” is unjustified and is the cause, not the
effect, of his own political actions.) Now, in the
name of a separate land route and airstrip for relief,
he magnanimously offers to separate out, and
concentrate destruction on, my arms, my resistance,
and my nation.
Feed me, to subdue me? No thanks. Sure I’m
cynical. I know the brutal reality that hunger is a
political issue.

Charges prejudiced selection
To the editor:

'

While the entire world news section of Monday’s
was devoted to a detailed account of
intrigues in the Syrian government (which is a
subject inteeeresting in itself), not a word was
mentioned about the bomb planted by Al-Fatah in
the cafeteria of The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
which exploded last Friday, injuring 22 students.
The Spectrum did not bother to inform us ofeither
of the death of two more students by another bomb
the week before, that while they were shopping at a
supermarket near the University. To read about
these things, one has to buy The New York Times.
What is the raison d’etre of The Spectrum, if not to
give us student news? Or is it possible that some
prejudice is involved in selecting news for

Spectrum

publication?

Down with phony forks!
To the editor.
I’ve had about all I can take from the Food
Service. First it was their price hikes, then it was
charging tax on their over-priced food. Now it’s
phony forks!
I was standing in line in the cafeteria waiting for
my daily fill and I could see, in plain sight, a whole
tray full of clean silver. Then I got outside, and lo
and behold, hunky plastic forks and spoons.
Of course the coffee isn’t nearly hot enough to
hurt the spoons, but imagine what breaded pork
chops does to the forks.
We are slaves to the Food Service
it’s about
time some action was taken in that area.

Urges campus employees unite
To the editor.
A serious iniquity has been focused on, as a
result of the recent teach-ins and discussion periods.
The grievance which has been expressed is the
inability of University employees (as a result of
threat or actual coercion) to organize and express
their dissatisfaction in a unified and meaningful
manner. The cafeteria workers, maintenance men,
washwomen, etc., have long not been allowed to
unionize and, thus, not been'able'to better their
present substandard working conditions. Where there
have been attempts to unionize, these attempts have
been checked by overt firing or by subtle threats.
The three main demands
adequate wages, job
security, and retirement funds have gone unheard
and conditions have gone unaltered.
This situation must change! I urge the various
University employees to join together and with
united strength, demand what they are rightfully
entitled to. In addition, I urge The Spectrum and all
the student governments to take the appropriate
actions to facilitate any progress on the part of y
_/
campus employees.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

Med students charge "racism
1

by Jay Schreiber

Spectrum StaffReporter

In their now famous book, Black Power,
Stokely Carmichael and Charles Hamilton
made an important distinction between
individual and institutionalized racism. The
authors saw the former as racist behavior
stemming directly from specific acts, such

as the 1965 church bombing that killed
four young girls in Birmingham.
The various instances of individual
racism were highly sensational and evoked
quick, emotional response yet their chief
effect was to divert attention from the
already anonymous, unintentional forms of
behavior that insured continued black
disprivilege and white supremacy.
This institutionalized racism is not overt
it does not stem from conscious racist
attitudes, yet its various patterns have a far
more overbearing, hideous effect on whole

masses of people. Blacks are kept at a
relative disadvantage
yet without the
malicious intent that can be so easily
despised and erased through removal.
Carmichael and Hamilton realized
institutionalized racism had subscribers

it was here the attack had to

be focused.
Med School accused
The State University of Buffalo Medical
School had its first skirmish last week. The
Student Health Organization, composed of
and supported primarily by medical
students, Wednesday published a two-page
open letter denouncing the policies of the
Medical School’s Admissions Committee.
The committee was indicted for
closed-door exclusivity and insensitivity to
the consumers of the total health-care
system that was reflected in their
admission decisions.
-

-

r

The letter read in part: “Indicative of
your narrow viewpoint is your
extraordinary inability to recruit black
students for this medical school.. . Since
the lack of black health professionals is so
closely tied to the health care in black
communities, the Admissions Committee
must accept a measure of responsibility for
the appalling medical problems which

surround

our

hospitals. Problems of such

magnitude cannot and will not be solved
by groups such as your own. Neither will

the admissions of token numbers of black
students be seen as sufficient justification
for condoning the power of your group.
Rather, realistic determination of
admissions requirements must be made by
the consumer whose health is at stake.”
Committee meets students
The letter precipitated an open meeting
that afternoon between 35 medical
students and 20 Medical School faculty,

including members of the Admissions
Committee.
The students had the Admissions
Committee up against the wall even before
the meeting began. There are no black
American students in the medical or dental
schools at the State University of Buffalo.
In the last 28 years only five black
Americans have graduated from the School
of Medicine. The ratio in the other health
science schools is only slightly better.
The inequity of this situation is
common to every major medical school in
the country. The result is a wide

Dormitory cost
study requested
Special to the Spectrum
A bill has been
ALBANY
introduced in the State Senate
which would provide for a study
to determine how to reduce the
cost of dormitory rooms to State
University students.
The State University plans to
raise dormitory rentals from $385
to $550 a year, effective July 1,
1969. This is an increase of more
than 40%.
Sen. Abraham Bernstein (D.,

This quieter mood is partly due

full spport of last week's spirit of free and open
exchange between students, faculty, and administration and sincerely hope that this exchange will
give rise to action in the best interests of the University. In addition, we fully endorse the attempt
to return nation Greek organizations to campus
and will lend our efforts in any way possible to
this movement. Although as a local sorority we
cannot benefit directly from such action, we feel
that any improvement of Greek status is in the best
interests of both the student and the university, as
well as making the "open campus" policy of which
this university boasts a reality.

It seems to have been a
convincing effort and the public

It seems destined to be a much
less potentially militant and, for
the government, embarrassing
affair than seemed likely to the

A head-on collision between
the unions and the government
over parliamentary and local
elections then seemed inevitable.
But there is general acceptance
now and understanding for the
leadership’s argument that these
cannot be brought about as
quickly as the unions and the
other progressive groups had
demanded.
The government headed by
President Ludvik Svoboda has

promised a statement about
mid-year and its further hint that
it is unlikely that elections will be
possible this year, aroused no
particular reactions.

Commitment remains
There is no slackening of the
unions’ continued solidarity in the
commitment to the reform
program. There are reports of
“public party meetings” in the
factories where the audiences are
equally balanced between party
members and non-party workers.
There arc no differences
between the two groups. There is
no weakening on the factory front
over the new concept of
Communist trade unions which
has taken firm root here.
Right to strike sought
This concept sees them neither
as subsidiary nor as to opposition
to the party and government, but
as full and equal partners in the

elaboration

of basic

economic

policies.
One has an impression that the
unions, feeling that their new role

has been established beyond all
doubt by their remarkable shows
of militancy on several occasions
earlier this year, see their job now
as

one

and

involving

concern

statesmanship

for national interest.

Thus their main concerns at
this congress are to press the right
to strike
an unprecedented
possibility in a Communist
country except Yugoslavia
and
for a very active role for the new
workers’ councils in the factories
and other economic enterprises.
They want this right to strike
written into law.
Typical Soviet anxiety and
inability to understand new trends
among Communists and
Communist workers in Eastern
Europe came out at a trade union
press conference. Who, Soviet
press representatives demanded,
did the workers want the right to
strike against since they were the
“owners” of the factories?
-

indistrial and social calamities of
the former period would have
been avoided.
All this, plus the fact that the
conservative anold guard has
failed to establish a solid power
base
even under Soviet
protection
has instilled a decree
of confidence in the progressives
that the reform movement will
survive.
If the present stability can be
preserved, potentially dangerous

conservative opposition could be
distilled and contained until the
elections are held it is reasoned
here. Recently the conservatives
have become even more morally
and politically isolated than
before, it is pointed out.
But the danger is not
overlooked.
Exchange visits between Prague
Moscow have become so
frequent as to arouse diminishing
attention. The current one
a
Soviet delegation here with

and

Koltiburo member Avrid Pelshe,
head of the Soviet party’s control
commission
caused some initial
concern. His host, his opposite
number in the Czechoslovak
party, Milos Jakes, is an open and
bitter opponent of the progressive
“right-wing extremists.”

A more serious view though is
taken of the lately increased
activity in surveillance of several
departments of the security and
police appartus and in the Czech
Interior Ministry. It is here
having failed to increase their
public standing
that the
conservatives now are most active.
-

They are also organizing
clandestine meetings and. since
the press is still firmly in the
hands of the progressives, resort
to “leaflet warfare" in efforts
thus far quite without success
to discredit the leading reformers.

The reply, that workers could
be as legitimately opposed to
inefficient or bad managers and
bureaucrats as to bad capitalist
owners and bosses, left them still

Union leaders insist that they

legal right to resort
to
democratically considered strike
action. Had this been permissible,
Union leaders believe some of the

“develop the potential of groups and
individuals (including young faculty
members) for research of high quality
whose results will be of significant value to
defense agencies.” It spreads the influence
of the military to universities previously
uninvolved in its web of interests, as well as
obtaining the fruits of specific research
done.
The government demands that
participants give the Defense Department
continuous reports of developments in
their projects, unlimited data rights and
“occasional advisory assistance on defense
matters.”
THEMIS projects can be classified by
the Defense Department at any time, if
they become “vital to the national

The issue of defense contracts on
campus has brought into the open the
existence of close ties between the U.S.
military and the University.
The relationship, involving cooperative
projects between the academic world and
the Pentagon and other agencies, is
complex. It raises the questions of the
■perversion” of “pure” research, the
notion of the “open campus” and of
academic responsibility for the war in
Vietnam.
What is the relationship between the

University and the military? The Pentagon
has various academic advisory panels: One

for each of the armed forces, one for the
President, one for the Secretary of Defense
and one called the Advanced Research
Projects Agency (which sponsors the
Institute for Defense Analysis, which
includes many campus scientists working
on defense problems part-time). These
groups function as informers of research
discoveries of use to defense and as
recruiters of scientists and students to
work on military-related projects, often
classified.
Members of academe can also serve the
military or other federal agencies. For
example, John Hannah, president of
Michigan State University
famed for its
team working on Vietnam operations
under Diem
and an Assistant Secretary
of Defense under Eisenhower, has been
appointed by President Nixon to
administer AID (Agency for International
Development). Dr. Hannah, however, plans
to also continue to act as president of the

security.”

There are other projects sponsored by
the three branches of the armed forces, the
Atmoic Energy Commission, NASA
(National Aeronautical and Space
Administration), and the National Science
Foundation. All projects must be approved
by the Vice President for Research, Dr.
Raymond Ewell, and by the Research
Foundation of the State University at
Albany.

Not all projects are in the natural and
physical sciences. AID supports technical
research into reform and modernization of
the National University of Asuncion,
Paraguay, conducted here by American
educators. Psychological studies of leader
authority and of extra-contractual
influences in government contracting are
being conducted under the Navy and
NASA respectively.

quote the New York Times of June 1968:
"The government is placing greater
emphasis on ‘mission-oriented’ projects and
less on undirected ‘pure’ research.”

In 1962-63, the federal government gave
universities, by its own statistics, $ 1.2
billion. Out of this, 40% came from the
Defense Department,

Most of the money goes to private
universities of high reputation: Ivy League
schools, for example. In 1968, the “top”

One project in political science will
receive $103,900 from the National
Science Foundation for a Center of
International Conflict Studies. Under the
direction of Dr. Glenn Snyder, the project
will “explore bargaining relationships in
alliances
to learn how to prevent crises
from erupting into war and how to
preserve the solidarity of alliances like
NATO.”
Out of six original researchers in this
project, two have dropped out. They
objected when the project was submitted
to THEMIS, among other programs, for
funds, because they opposed “legitimizing
the Department of Defense.”
One explained: “One of the dangers of
sponsorship is the tendency of the
sponsor’s values to creep into the
research.”

THEMIS at Buffalo
The State University of Buffalo is one
of the middle-sized targets of THEMIS.
The entire State University of New York
ranked 74th in Defense Department
funding in 1966, receiving $595,000. The
program at this campus is in environmental
physiology, described by a Defense
Department spokesman as relating to “the
performance of man in the sea to meet
Navy needs.”
It is run under Dr. Leon Farhi and
receives $300,000 a year. Dr. Farhi is
investigating man’s response to extreme
conditions of stress underwater (including
research into man's lung capabilities), at
high altitudes and in sealed environments.
The building to be constructed for it,
adjacent to the Physiology Department,
will hold a human centrifuge, a submersion
tank, and a high-pressure chamber, at a
total cost of $353,500. This will be paid
for by the State University, as THEMIS
encourages cost-sharing with participating
universities, frequently reducing the
Defense Department’s annual share.
There are other defense-sponsored
projects here. Until the last few years,
chemical-biological warfare research (CBWl
was admittedly conducted here. Currently
work is going on in Air Purification under
the direction of the Army’s Edgewood
Arsenal (a leading center for CBW
research), and in “Inhibitory teoepior-like
substances with which influenza viruses
react,” also under the Army.
The chemical THC, known in civilian
circles as “synthetic pot." is being
considered for use against enemies as “an
incapacitating agent.”
“It would be a humane weapon." said
one drug expert.
The firm had authority from the
National Institute of Dental Health to
manufacture THC, and at first denied the
military connection. But the firm was
forced to retract its denial when
confronted with a 1966 acknowledgement
of involvement with the Edgewood Arsenal
and Dow Chemical.
Another institute primarily under
federal government contract is Cornell
Aeronautical Laboratory in Buffalo. CAL
is associated with Cornell University,
although protest from faculty and students
forced an attempt at disaffiliation which
was barred by the courts.
One funder of CAL is the Institute for
Defense Analysis, but both groups get their
funds primarily from the Defense
Department, which gave CAL $25 million
in 1967.

The State University of Buffalo has no

The question has been raised as to the
relevance of most THEMIS-sponsored
research to defense. A D.O.D. spokesman
assured an investigating subcommittee of
the House of Representatives that the

CAL people are paid to take courses here.
Among CAL’s best-known projects are

along with other corporations (including

Altogether, CAL and other private firms

Another Cambridge school, Harvard
University, is the only college with a policy
of refusing classifiable projects. At the
University of Pennsylvania, home of CBW
research,
1000 students protested the
complex being built there for Defense
Department studies in a sit-in last week.
They are now negotiating for stipulations
on the type of research to be done there.
The head of the University Science Center,
Jean-Paul Mather, told the press: “I’d work

on a death-ray if the government told me

to." but other administrators have been
more flexible toward student demands.

the Admissions Committee found its
extension in two separate demands. The
formulators of the letter were asking for a
revision of the Admissions Committee with
student representation with an eye towards
restructuring the planner in which the
whole Medical School is run.
The Admissions Committee chairman is
traditionally appointed by the dean of the
Medical School. The present head of the
Medical School, Dr. LeRoy Pesch, arrived
here after the present operating committee
was already intact. The students feel he is
more liberal than the Admissions
Committee and might be an ally in
pressuring for change.
In fact, however, this talk of reform was

Other health science schools.
Call for black admissions
Steve Marder, a leader of the dissident
medical students, opened the meeting with
a few cordial remarks, but when he
introduced one of the two protagonists of
the confrontation, John Wilson, the faculty

attempted to recruit black students for the
Medical School.
He cited the fact that admission
applications to the Medical School were no
longer required to contain an attached
photograph of the applicant.
Dr. Weis proudly explained that seven

black students had been recruited for the
Medical School in the fall. One of them, he
said, was an Alabama girl who was also
accepted at Harvard. Sounding remarkably
like a football recruiter reminiscing on the
old NFL-AFL war, Dr. Weis said: “It’s hard
every school is
to get Negro students
competing for them. Harvard has a
$350,000 fund for just that purpose. They
can offer these students free tuition for
four years.”
Dr. Nichols, one of a number of faculty
who sided with the students, mentioned
that the Admissions Committee should be
primarily concerned with students who
weren’t being sought after by "numerous
medical schools, but the ones who
wouldn’t get into any medical school at all.

Rev. Herman Cole mentioned that

Students as recruiters?
Dr. Weis remained ambiguous. At

he agreed with the faculty member and
Rev. Cole, but then stated that he thought
such a task was not the responsibility of his

Admissions Committee. He slowly
postulated: “I think if the students would

“Dr. Weis, you’re missing the point,”
someone shouted. “Recruiting a pool of

Massive restructuring
in developmental stage
by Jim Panzarella
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

Revolutionary proposals swept the
Science, Engineering and Medical Schools
last week as students massed to restructure
and reform their departments.
In Parker Engineering’s Aerospace Lab,
engineers listened from atop massive
pressure chambers and wind tunnels as a
300-strong assembly discussed the state
and direction of the Engineering School. In
the Health Sciences’ Capen Hall, the
Student Health Organization (SHO)
revealed that there was not one American
Negro in the Medical school; and Bob
Cohen stormed out of the meeting of the
Faculty of Natural Sciences in- the
Conference Theater after being rebuffed
for his discourteous approach to saving the
world.
The engineers have proposed a number
of broad reforms, some of which are
already being implemented. Committees
for Faculty Recommendation are being
formed in each department to evaluate
instructors and make recommendations,
particularly regarding tenure. The Provost’s
office openly supports the move,
expressing the feeling that “The students
are the only ones who can really evaluate
the quality of their teaching.”
The committees will poll the students
with comprehensive questionnaires and F.
Karl Willenbrock, Provost of the Faculty of
Engineering and Applied Sciences, has
announced that his office intends to give
the resulting recommendations extensive
consideration.

Most proposals and discussion before the
capacity audience centered around racism

in the Medical School; student control;
curriculum revision; reorganization of
student government, and bicameral
representation on all committees. Wild
applause followed a proposal that students
should run the Medical School.
Steve Marder of the SHO elaborated:
“The Medical School is drawing up new
by-laws, and we want to make sure that
we’re well represented in the new
structure, in the past, we have received
virtually no representation and the Faculty
has remained generally apathetic to our
cause.”
Law School meets
A Law School Convocation Friday drew
200 students and 25 faculty members to
discuss eight proposals for restructuring the
Faculty of Law and Jurisprudence.
They decided to conduct a referendum
today at the Law School to establish a
“Joint Commission” of student and faculty
members. The purpose of the Commission
will be to study the present structure of
the Law School, to hold open hearings and
to submit proposals for reform and
restructuring of the school.
William D. Hawkland, provost of the
Faculty of Law and Jurisprudence, was
mandated by the body to convene another
student-faculty meeting in one month to
consider the work of the Joint Commission
if it is established.
In what one professor termed a
“head-bumping session,” the School of
including Math.
Natural Sciences
Physics, Chemistry and Biology
massed
the Conference Theater Thursday to
consider the direction of their department
and the roles and responsibilities of the
scientist in general.
-

‘Just the beginning’
Dr. Willenbrock’s assistant, Mrs. Ann
Abrams, with an enthusiasm rivalling even
that of the students involved, stated: “We
strongly urge a bicameral legislature in this
faculty, and we’ll do everything within our
power to implement it. In the past week
we’ve had a close-working between faculty
and students that we’ve never seen before,
and we’re not going to let it die. The
Assistant Provost’s Office is being
restructured into the Office for Student
Problems, and that’s only the beginning.”
Other reforms in progress are a
“disadvantaged youth” program which will
supplement such youths’ high school
education; an “Engineering Uncle” system
in which seniors assigned to freshmen will
resolve the Engineering school’s counseling
shortage; plans for a “teacher-training
course” for ineffective instructors; the
construction of a mechanism for “town
meetings,” and the formation of a
committee concerned with the image and
role of the Engineering school in the

University community.

SHO vs. Med School

understanding of the Engineering student,”
hopes Steve Marlin, president of the
Mechanical Engineering Student Council.

“We are not unconcerned. Much of the
problem is that we’re stuck off
in a corner
of the campus
we don’t really have a
chance to mingle and get involved. We
expect appropriate design of the new
Amherst campus to solve this.”
Medical School classes were cancelled
for a teach-in Thursday in Capen Hall.

controversial research contracts from the
Defense Department. Robert Cohen, a

that all research contracts from the
Defense Department be returned on the

“This isn’t the end of the world,” said General Manager Howie
Plaster with tears in his eyes.
The Buffalo hockey club had just lost 3-2 to Canton Tech in the
Finger Lakes Hockey League championship finals. And now Plaster
was trying to console a group of athletes who had played their hearts
out for this University.
“We won 19 games this year, more than any other team in Buffalo
hockey history,” continued. Plaster, “and it’s been a hell of a year.”
“I want you guys to know it’s been a real pleasure working with
you. You’ve been a great group.”
From the back of the team bus a voice shouted out: “Let’s have
three cheers for the management.”
Twenty voices rang loud and strong. “Hip hip hooray! Hip H hip
hooray! Hip hip hooray!”

Plaster then made another announcement. “The final tabulations
have just been completed and our goalie Mike Dunn, defenseman Bob
Goody and forward Tom Caruso have all been named to the Finger
Lakes Hockey League All-Star team.”
More cheers

as

the

Buffalo

players applauded

their

three

teammates.

Thus did a hockey year end. And quite a year it was.
The 1969 Buffalo hockey club was a good one. The Bull icers gave
this school a hard, exciting brand of collegiate hockey. And their 19-5
record told just a fraction of the story.
The Bulls’ many highlights ranged from Bob Albano’s winning
overtime goal against the Cornell J.V.s to Mike Dunn’s spectacular
goaltending in a 4-3 win over the St. Lawrence frosh.
And then there was the 21-2 win over Buffalo State when
Spectrum reporter Mike Engel, wearing number 'A, skated five regular
shifts with the Bulls and actually picked up an assist.
Hockey Pictorial recognized Buffalo’s ice achievements and
ranked the Bulls the number one club hockey leant in the country
quite an achievement when you consider tha Bulls have only been
around for seven years.
Losing to Canton was certainly a bitter pill to swallow. For some
of the Buffalo players, it brought back memories of last year’s 5-4 loss
to Oswego in the Finger Lakes finals. And for seniors Jim McKowne,
Len DePrima and Paul Kubiak, it marked their last game ever in a Blue
and White uniform.

But for Genera! Manager Plaster, the loss to Canton marked the
end of one hockey era and heralded the beginning of a new chapter for
the Buffalo Bulls. “We’ve applied for varsity status," Plaster said, “and
I’d like to think that next year begins a whole new page for Buffalo
hockey
and our best lies ahead.”

This year’s varsity cagers

October, aware of the only major

Inexperience in game competition
as a team. Overcoming this
difficulty would only be a matter
of time, as the Bulls possessed a
very talented but young squad.
The Bulls’ schedule, the finest
in the school’s history, presented
a real challenge to the team. For
the first time in Buffalo basketball
history, the Bulls would face
powerhouse Tennessee, the
nation’s leading defensive team
the previous two seasons and the
number ten team in the nation the
previous year.
Also on the schedule were such
fine teams as Syracuse, Niagara,
Colgate, Rochester, Northern
Illinois, Rutgers, LeMoyne- and
Buffalo State.
The 12-9 mark the Bulls
compiled this season was not
indicative of the high quality of
talent they possessed. Ed Eberle,
Buffalo’s fourth all-time leading
scorer and team MVP and leading
scorer the past three years, put it
this way: “I’ve never played on a
better team.” Only a combination
of untimely illnesses and bad
breaks kept the Bulls from
achieving a better record.

heartbreaking losses which were
ahead of them in the second half
of the campaign.
The first of these heafcj-rending
defeats came after semestef exams
when the Bulls traveled to Colgate
on Jan. 17 looking for their third
straight win. All they found was
frustration as they lost 79-75,
before 3000 Red Raider fans.
Mr. “Hard Knocks” continued
to follow the Bulls, as Buffalo
dropped a 79-76 decision to
Niagara before 5000 fans in

�Mermen take 13 medals
Six State University of Buffalo
freshmen mermen won 13 medals
at the Upper New York State
Swimming Association
Championships last weekend.
Medals were awarded for first
through sixth places in each event.
The four varsity men did not
make the final heats in their
events, so they were unable to
capture any medals.
Bob Lindberg missed the finals
in the 50-yard freestyle by only
one-tenth of a second. He saswam
in the consolation finals and
placed ninth overall in his event.
Charles Hund took tenth place
in the 200-yard backstroke, 12th
in the 200-yard individual medley
and 13th in the 100-yard

backstroke.

Two seniors made their final
appearances for the
Bulls. Mark Claroq, a four-year
swimmer, splashed to 13th place
swimming

in the 200-yard freestyle and
Thomas Schwartz placed 15th in
the 50-yard freestyle.

Frosh win medals
The Baby Bulls staged a strong
show in seizing their medals. Bill
Scheider won the gold in the
200-yard breaststroke in 2:27.6,
the silver in the 200-yard
individual medley and the bronze
in the 200-yard butterfly. George
Thompson and John Vasko
captured silver medals
Thompson in the 200-yard
butterfly and Vasko in the
200-yard backstroke.
The freshmen, 400-yard
medley relay team, made up of
Vasko, Scheider, Thompson and
Eric Kruss, took second place,
Kruss, Mike Hughes, Thompson
and Jim Nader placed fourth in
the 400-yard freestyle relay.
The season record for the
—

varsity

Bulls is 3-14. Some of

these losses were due to Buffalo's
ability to use only sophomores,
juniors and seniors on its varsity
squad, while many of the
competitors could also use
freshmen and fifth-year students.
Top varsity scorers for Buffalo
were Lindberg, Hund, Ed Sargent

and Tomm Ross.
The Baby Bulls finished their
season with four straight wins,
and a season tally of 4-3. Their
highest scorers were Scheider,
Hughes and Thompson.

Fear is a four-letter word
editorial autonomy
The Spectrum enjoys
protecting itself from any direct pressures of the student
government, as well as from the University administration
a situation genuinely unique among fee-supported college
publications across the country. Further, according to our
agreement with our job printer, in combination with the use
of our own typesetting equipment, we are protected from
any sort of censorship; or at least the overt kind which
blanked several Spectrum pages two years ago.
Harassment, on the other hand, is a funny thing. And
that funny thing happened on the way to recent meetings of
Buffalo’s Common Council.
Now, we don’t mind getting talked about, especially by
local political leaders. That’s why we took the trouble to
so they’d read
send The Spectrum to all local politicians
us, and at least be exposed to our discussion of issues in the
University and its community. Trying not to be paranoid, we
must acknowledge that a battle is being waged by private
citizens and public officials to silence us and, indirectly, the
University. We get read aloud, even in the hallowed halls of
Albany, ostensibly not because of our attempts at
muck-raking, but because of our
of all the four-letter
words muck.
One wonders the real reason for the Council Members’
uptightness: Is it the four-letter foul play which appears
hidden in the greys of our columns or is it rather the
presentation of radical sentiments of a University?
Much of this clearly involves fear-mongering
playing
on the fears of alienated workers and of the secure
insecurities of the affluent suburbs
and is clearly the
reason for the extremely harsh double-punishment
legislation which appears in Albany and in Washington
treating ‘disorderly’ students as third-class aliens. Things
have reached such a state of affairs that even the Supreme
Court has said that public university officials have the right
to expell student ‘disrupters’ without the benefit of due

Calls for solidarity of action
To the editor.
No matter what the final outcome of the
discussions to transform the University, one thing is
for sure: even if nothing is accomplished it has made
people stop and think. The 90% of apathetic
students on this campus have come to realize that
too much is going on around them to close their
minds and live in a shell. This in itself is an

—

accomplishment.

Ideas should be individual but action must be
taken in solidarity. This is one time when we should
all follow the advice of our President and move
“Forward Together.”

process.
Suggestions were aired at a University teach-in that The

Spectrum expand to 100,000 circulation throughout the
Buffalo community. Aside from our present financial
limitations, we have been stymied by attempts to widen our
circulation in the Buffalo community by a newspaper
distribution network which has a monopoly, and which
won’t handle us. A suggestion that a University printing
press be established, to protect student and faculty
publications from being at the direct or indirect disposal of
public sentiment or uptight printers, is one we have been
echoing for at least three years, and one which we hope will
be realized on the Amherst campus.
So they talk about filth, while the real filth is imagined
fantasy, a cover-up for political fears, utilized as support for
political power in an increasingly repressive, uptight local
a community from which, like it or not, none
community
of us are isolated.

point of order
by Randall T. Eng
Reaction is an inevitable by-product of any
sweeping social movement. The New York Times
reports that at Columbia University there is a
growing number of students who wish to return to
the power structure of old. Although this is very
unfortunate, it nevertheless brings to light some of
the forgotten aspects of campus confrontation.
The uprising at Columbia was a naked play for
power. The forces which disrupted the University
were intent upon replacing the decision-making
apparatus with an entirely new structure. They were
not interested in incorporating any vestiges of the
old regime in their power scheme. The “have-not”
elements could not conceive of a place for the
“haves.”

This is perhaps the reason why the revolutionary
forces could not fully achieve their goals. By
attempting to disenfranchise those portions of the
academic community who had a stake in the status
quo, the dissidents succeeded in arousing
unnecessary opposition.

The totalitarian methods of the revolutionary
groups threatened those elements which are
normally* passive. If any attempt had been made to
incorporate the status quo people, reaction would
have been far less likely. The alienation which
resulted from the polar position taken by the
dissidents led to an irrational response on the part of
those students and faculty (as well as administrators)
who felt excluded. Militant organizations which can
only be characterized as lightest have appeared on
the Columbia campus as a result. This was the
response of people who would not he down as their
world was being threatened. The presence of these
groups has effectively blocked many progressive
changes.

The forces which seek to bring down Columbia
or any other university are committed to the
destruction of the establishment. They have selected
the university as a target becasue it is the most
vulnerable portion of the establishment’s anatomy.
In agitating against the university, many dissidents
have lost sight of the real purposes of their
movement. When destruction is sought for
destruction’s sake, the entire educational value of
revolution is lost.
The academic community is perhaps the most
reasonable element in our polarized and fragmented
society. A little bit of reason can go a long way in
the university if sincere dialogue is attempted.
Non-negotiable demands and the like are certain to
steel the resolve of those elements which have to be
bargained with. The uncompromising tone of most
dissidents is enough to errect barriers which
completely hinder any constructive communications.
I m not suggesting that revolutionary movements
must be watered down before they can
succeed.
Instead, I’m suggesting that dissident elements are
too quick in naming enemies and too slow in
reasoning.

The confrontation at the State University
of
Buffalo began in a pattern similar to the Columbia
disturbances. Many groups made demands which in
several cases ignored the needs and position of other
groups. Explosive confrontation was avoided
through the efforts of individuals who were
broadminded enough to view the situation in its
totality. Their efforts forestalled a
takeover'by
dissidents and also prevented an equally dangerous
reaction by status quo elements.

Defends judicial system
To the editor.
Inasmuch as The Spectrum chose to publish and
embellish Mr. Rubin’s execrable comment on
American courts, “equal time” is respectfully
requested on behalf of those members of the student
body who believe in the democratic system and are
not mesmerized by Marcusian claptrap.
I quote Abraham Lincoln: “The courts are the
tribunals prescribed by the Constitution and created
by the authority of the people to determine,
expound and enforce the law. Hence, whoever resists
the final decision of the highest judicial tribunal aims
a deadly blow to our whole system of government
a blow which, if successful, would place all our rights
and liberties at the mercy of passion, anarchy and
violence.”
Dolores Burke

Fill bellies, not bleachers
To the editor.
While Biafran bellies are bellowing the Song of
Hunger, 2647 belching S.O.B.’s (Sports or Bust)
satiated the financial hunger of the sacred Bulls and
resurrected “intermural sports” from the depths of
obscurity. Concurrently, 1387 parsimonious misfits
(including myself) voted to castrate the S.O.B.’s and
throw-out this $25 Bull. (Pardon the pun!)
What a grand gesture it would be if all us Doc
Schweitzer fans (humanitarians) could get together
and demand that our monies be allocated to fill
bellies rather than the bleachers of Rotary Field.
Louis Bialy

Red light district?
To the editor:

If they give the students the green light on coed
housing, will that mean a red light district on the
campus?

ROTC effectiveness irrelevant
To the editor:
On the Berkeley campus of the University of
California, the ROTC has been under constant
harassment throughout the 1960’s. In Berkeley
where the climate of student opinion favots active
participation in campus reforms, many students
including myself have advocated the abolishment o
academic credit for ROTC.
This conclusion results simply from reflectio
upon the purposeful activities of the training
program. ROTC is a mechanism by which the

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Bicameralism:
by Linda Laufer
News Editor

Student dissatisfaction last week centered around
one main issue the lack of student participation in the
Faculty Senate, the policy determinig apparatus of the
University in which students have no voting privileges or
representation.
As a result, various alternate structures were offered
to replace the elitism fostered by the Faculty Senate.
A bicameral structure was most prominently
mentioned; other suggestions included a unicameral
body, a tricameral body, a town meeting type of
structure or a structureless body.
In an “effort to combine participation and
representation,” Edward J. Shoben Jr., director of the
Center for Higher Education, has proposed the
implementation of a bicameral system. Dr. Shoben
released a preliminary sketch entitled “Students and
University Goverance” Oct. 10, but no action was
instituted until recently.
-

Personalizations
Outlined in his proposal are provisions for a Faculty
Senate conceived “along the usual lines, although there
may be advantages in thinking” in terms of “more of a
representative body than after the fashion of the town
-

meeting.”
A Student Assembly based “on a student body
organized into ‘districts’ or ‘towns’ defined by
interests," is the accompanying proposed governmental
structure.

A district would consist of approximately 100 to
200 students who would “elect a representative to the
Student Assembly.”
According to the proposal, “the political base would
be a personalized one” and “communication would tend
to become a much more personalized and responsive
affair.”
Linking the two houses would be “conference
committees, joint commissions and task forces,” as well
as other mechanisms. In addition, “the enactment of
bills into University ‘laws’ would require the customary
agreement between the two houses.”

Advantages
Dr. Shoben, in a recent interview, cited the
advantages of his system: “It insures a parity of
in Huenee
for students along with faculty. Because
students, just as faculty, have special interests in a
University, it allows ample room for those interests to
express themselves.”
He continued: “The ongoing involvement of student
legislators in the process of legislating seems to me to
insure a wiser set of judgments including the judgment
°f when to go to the entire community for either an
expression of opinion or a decision.”
“If student legislators are genuinely tied to explicit
constituencies, it is the best assurance I can think of for
having all shades of interest show up in the ligislative
Process, he commented.
When asked about the efficiency and speed with
wl'ich legislation cacould be decided, he replied that
ihere would be a “balancing of reflection and
"'formation against felt urgency.”

”

departmental basis

A proposal for a bi-lateral unicameral government,
up by students during the week of Teach-Ins,

r "wn

(

Teach-in calendar

istinguishes academic affairs from student affairs. This

an

alternative

suggestion provides for the maintenance of the Polity,
Faculty Senate, Graduate Student Association, Millard

Fillmore College Student Association and other
presently recognized groups to deal with their own
respective constituent concerns.
The unicameral structure in educational affairs
would be based on the departments with voting power
being equally divided between students and faculty.
Each department then would send representatives half
students and half faculty
to a Faculty Council for
each Faculty, including an extra one for freshmen and
sophomores without majors and independents. Members
of the separate faculty councils would “meet jointly as a
Senate to decide upon University-wide decisions only,”
according to the proposal.
Decisions made by this Senate would be subject to
review by a University-wide referendum or the veto of
departments voting as separate bodies.
‘Grassroots level’
Don Jacobson, an undergraduate student working
on this proposal, explained: “There is a Separation
separate the educational affairs from the student affairs,
putting the base of power on a grassroots level within
departments with a real constituency.”
He termed it a “rather important and drastic change
because it is hitting the faculty and the administration
where the power is and where most of the little decisions
are made which affect majors.”
Visualizing a form of government “that tends to
minimize the personal alienation of anonymity and gives
the student a sense that he can participate in his own
environment,” Fred M. Snell, Master of College A,
leaned toward a “micro-town meeting” system.
This proposal was formulated by students and is one
which its originators “feel includes the best ideas of the
bicameral, unicameral and the town meeting forms and
could feasibly be implemented in the near future.”
A Faculty Senate and a Student Senate would each
elect an executive committee. A Joint Executive
Committee would be composed of an equal number of
representatives from the two executive committees.

Proportional basis
The University community would be divided into
groups of 100, chosen at random but on a proportional
basis regarding faculty, students and staff. Each
individual would have one vote. Two representatives
from each group would be elected to represent them in a
Committee of the Whole.
The proposal states two duties for these
representatives: “report to the Committee of the Whole
the vote taken in their individual group and relay
information received from the joint committees back to
their individual groups.”
‘Paper revolution’
Issues can be presented to the Student Senate,
Jaaifty-Senale-OLgroups of 10Q and are referred to the—
Joint Executive Committee who decides the domain of
the proposal.
The Faculty Senate acts on proposals, in the plan,
involving only the faculty, the Student Senate acts on
those pertaining only to students and the groups of 100
act on those considered to be University-wide issues.
Dr. Snell maintained that “if we can’t move toward
something definitive, then the University community is
lost.” Although he expressed sympathy for this type of
system, he said that through activities at the College A
where students have been meeting to
storefront
-

formulate their ideas they are trying to facilitate some
thinking about all types of governmental systems.”
Referring to the week of Teach-Ins and related
activities. Dr. Snell indicated: “I feel very strongly that
we ought to come up with something before this is
over... We have to have something real, something
definitive.”
“I look at it as more a form of government which
has built into it a process of continual change,” he said,
explaining that the new form can not be rigid. He wants
to "convert it from a paper revolution to a real change.”
Student participation
Another proposal calls for a Faculty Senate and a
Student Senate divided into five organizations Student
Association, Graduate Student Association, Millard
Fillmore College Student Association, Medical/Dental
Association and Student Bar Association. Student
strength resides in individual participation in town
meetings held by these groups.
A student coordinating committee and faculty
coordinating committee would publicize the proposal
for a fixed number of days. At the end of that time
period the groups would meet.
The Student Association and Faculty Association
would then consider the same proposal at the same time.
Decisions would be made by a yes-no vote in the two
Senates and recorded as a percentage of the total vote.
Percentages from the two Senates would then be
combined to determine the community decision.
-

Andy Trusz, an undergraduate student concerned

with this proposal, predicted: “Once students see that
their power does exist, they will be sufficiently
motivated to exercise it. In effect, it will be a democracy
in which students have the option of participating or not
participating.”
“The student community simply has to realize that
this is an effective government in which they can
participate,” he said.
Minimal structure
“Structure arising from necessity” is the
governmental form proposed by Students for a
University Community, according to Andy Ferullo, a
committee member. He indicated that he is “not against
structure but against a nonfunctioning structure.”
“What we’re advocating is a means for any person
with any concern to be able to present a proposal to the
entire University community. There would be no
restriction on who the person is." he said.
Mr. Ferullo continued: “What that would mean is
that you’d have a centralized publicity agency or library
that would be a channel. Anyone could walk into this
office and be able to initiate his own legislation.
Inherent in this is that your proposal be relevant.”
Channels of publicity
After proposing legislation, there would be channels

being raised. A meeting would then would be called to
consider that specific proposal approximately one week
after it was initiated.
. A moderator would preside at the meeting; those
who attend would mandate policy.
Setting up “legitimate channels between faculty and
students which don’t presently exist,” this system would
provide, said Mr. Ferullo, for “openness and simplicity"
in which all elements of the University community
would participate as equals. "Because there is a minimal
structure, it allows for any structure."

During an organizational
meeting of the CRC, chairman Joe
r.

,

Ferrandino stressed: “This is
going to be a qualitively different
a strong
type or organization
on-going organization which takes
issues as they come up. We now
have a number Of students
interested in issues, but we must
keep up our politics in action
instead of talk.”
Explaining the purpose of the
CRC at a massive rally Friday in
the Fillmore Room, Mr.
Ferrandino referred to the
CTUB’s statement of theory and
analysis which preceded the eight
demands. He claimed that “we
will use this as a basis for which
we can view any issue that comes
up in the University and the
community,” and that “it is the
principle and policy for this
on-going political force."
-

CRC Membership
“Anyone who has read the
document and understands it and
agrees with it, is actually a
member of the CRC,” he
continued, urging all of the 500
students there to actively
participate in the political
demonstration scheduled for
today.
Addressing students at the
rally, Terry Keegan, student in
Philosophy indicated that “the
essential problem is: Are we to be
reformists or radicals?” He
reviewed his own growth in
political ideas explaining that he
“began realizing that the liberal,
neutral ways of dealing with the
changes simply weren’t effective”
during the Buffalo Nine Trial.
In a paper which Mr. Keegan
distributed, he states; “What we
in this thing ...are ultimately after
is a new world where all men can
be free. We have been engaged by
the court system, the War,
political repression, and the
underlying economic system that
so strongly determine the nature
of the problem to which we’ve
been directing ourselves
specifically with a theory and a
program.”

Conflicting interests
“So let us not be lulled by the
faculty and administration into
believing that we all have the same
interests. Each group has a
specific relationship to where the
money comes from, and in many
cases the interests of the students
and the faculty with the
administration are in conflict.”
Another speaker, Marilyn
Quigley, described her encounter
with “radical ideas” and expressed
that she is “not an island
anymore” but is becoming
involved in the movement. Miss
Quigley referred to the Buffalo
Nine Trial, demanding: “Am I

Syrian coup may shift
strategy against Israel
hy

The Christian Science Monitor

Syrian
BEIRUT, Lebanon
Lt. Gen. Hafiz al Asad’s “quiet
coup,” as diplomats in Damascus
are calling it, climaxes a long
rivalry between him and Maj. Gen.
Salah Jadid, the Baath Party
(Arab Socialist) boss.
General Asad is Defense
Minister and Air Force
commander.
If he succeeds in his aims,
observers here expect Syria to
become a less verbal but possibly
a militarily more effective Arab
opponent of Israel than it has
been.
In reported moves to cut the
power of General Jadid and of his
ally, President Nur al Din al Atasi,
General Asad also aims at
warming up Syria’s chilly relations
with regimes of two neighboring
Arab states. These are the Jordan
monarchy of King Hussein and
the rival Baathist rulers of Iraq.
Diplomats here say they
believe another aim of General
Asad is complete coordination of
the anti-Israel military effort with
the United Arab Republic as well.
Conversely, Syria’s 6lose ties
with the Soviet Union and the
important role in Damascus of the
Syrian Communist Party may
slacken. General Asad does not
like Communists.

There were no reports of
violence. Ordinary Syrians showed
yawning indifference toward the
intrigues of the politicians.
General Asad’s main ally in his
“quiet coup” was Brig Gen.
Mustapha Tias, the chief of staff.
The conflict began before the
1967 war with Israel.
General Jadid tried unsuccessfully
to remove General Asad from the
Defense Ministry because General

�AAUP local chapter urges
defeat of campus dissent bill
The local chapter of American Association of University
Professors has sent a letter to Governor Nelson Rockefeller
urging that he oppose passage of a bill presently in the State
Legislature.
The bill, if passed, would cut
off financial aid to any student
involved in campus disorders. Dr.
Marvin Feldman, president of the
local AAUP chapter, termed
defeat of the bill “crucial.”
which
Referring to the bill
has already been passed by the
Dr. Feldman said
State Senate
that the University chapter of the
AAUP has sent a letter to Gov.
Rockefeller urging that he oppose
the passage of the bill.
Having originated last spring
after a series of incidents at
Columbia University, the bill calls
for the withholding of
"scholarship or incentive aid to
students convicted of a felony or
misdemeanor involving unlawful
assembly ‘aggravated harassment,
criminal nuisance, fake reporting
of an accident or possession of
noxious material,’ on any college
campus in the country.”
Dr. Feldman explained that the
bill, as passed by the Senate, is
"very vague.” Changes are being
discussed in the Assembly which
may mean the bill will be referred
to a joint committee before final
action is taken
-

-

Double jeopardy
The letter
sent to Gov.
Rockefeller denotes several
reasons why passage of the bill
should be opposed:

“The bill would place students
in double jeopardy since these
penalties would be incurred in
addition to any other penalties
imposed by college or civil
authorities. It would be analogous
to the Selective Service’s use of
the immediate induction penalty
for a civil crime;
“In spite of self-righteous
denials, the bill is widely
interpreted as reflecting a strong
racist bias. This view is fostered
by pointed inclusion of the SEEK
program within the province of
the law as well as the fact that
many current campus
demonstrations have evolved out
of educational issues directly
affecting black students;
“Many critics have pointed out
that the chief victims of the bill
would be students with limited
financial resources. Preventing
poor students from completing
their education is likely to foster
the very social ills we hope to
ameliorate by providing
educational opportunities to all
who can profit by them

department be reorganized into

several branches.
Mr. Cook endorsed this idea
and indicated his desire that one
of the branches be devoted to
evaluating and acting on social
problems, rather than traditional
methods of teaching.
Mr, Cook’s description of a
proposed “social action track’’
calls for elimination of grades and
examinations and credit hours as
an evaluative criteria of a
student’s performance.
His proposal reads: “The whole
notion of credit and measurement
of individual worth represents the
application of a classical economic
social psychology and is the very
source of alienation which divides
student and professor,”
Theory and action
Social relevance would be
elevated to the most important

criterion of evaluation. “The end
in view,” according to Mr. Cook’s
proposal, “is to study and act
toward institutions in an effort to
change them.”

"Defense” or more accurately
“offense” spending constitutes
the largest chunk of the federal
budget. Seventy billion dollars are
spent yearly supposedly to
protect the U.S. from foreign
invasion or nuclear attack. The
Vietnam war, however, has
exploded this notion as a myth
for many of us. No one feels
threatened by the Vietnamese; the
idea that they have designs upon
San Francisco strikes most of us
as ludicrous. Yet it is essentially
this “right wing” idea that our
liberal government will have us

believe.

In protecting the “Free World”
we have come to see that the U.S.
is actually protecting billions of

dollars in overseas investments,
investments which are growing at
a much more rapid rate than
domestic ones. But as the people
in the Third World increasingly
find the investors, from Standard
Oil to United Fruit, to be the
rulers of their squalid countries
through puppet dictators, they
mount insurrections which the
U.S. military has been called upon
to suppress. Thus we have Green
Berets virtually everywhere in the
Third World, much as we did in
Vietnam in the early sixties. As
General Smedley Butler put it: “I
brought light to the Dominican
Republic for American sugar
interests in 1916,”
and it has

tensions of unemployment. There
are 3 million men in uniform who
otherwise would be flooding a job
market with no room for them.
We all have heard the argument
for maintaining a huge military
force which goes simply: “How
else can a poor boy get ahead?"
The fact that one cannot get
“ahead” or may well get killed is
irrelevant. By getting “ahead” the
person who proposes 'this
argument refers to a higher slot on
the job ladder, not to
development as a human being.
The role of the University in
this conquest of the Third World
and maintenance of irrationality
($70 billion for defense but not a
penny for poverty) in the
domestic economy has been one
of willing accomplice. Billions are

The dismantling of the military

University as
society's exploiter
Though the University serves
the dominant corporation
interests, it draws its support

financial, social

from the entire

population. The University is
viewed as a “public institution”

and

receives

its

monies

accordingly.

Tax money from various levels
of government are alloted to the
University directly in lump sum
and indirectly in grants to
students, professors, and
administrators.
Foundations, which themselves
serve as mechanisms which protest
the wealth amassed by
corporations and their higher level
personnel, also provide large
amounts of the University's gross
income.
This University, which is the
third largest employer in Western
N.Y., acts in the same manner as
other key institutions serving the
dominant class. It awards status
(being a “professional") and
wealth to the people in the
various levels of the ehte of this
country and
holds out the
promise of both to those being
recruited, tested for elite
positions.
It exploits the labor of those
people outside of the elite.

Caferteria workers, maintenance

personnel who, along with
graduate students, are underpaid
and often work at jobs which have
little immediate or intermediate
relavence to their lives of the life
of society. Further, the University
has financial instruments through

property as Columbia University
has done in Hariera the past
decades.

The University is one of the
dominant structures recruiting,
selecting, training future members
of the ruling class of the United
States. The student personnel is
not representatively composed of
people from the different classes
in American society. Children of
working class parents usually five
in areas which have poorer schools

those found in
neighborhoods

housing

.professional, managerial parents.
Working class kids are often
not encouraged and sometimes
discouraged from planning to
attend college. In maintaining the
student in school, wealthier
parents have a number of
advantages. Firstly, they are rich.
Secondly, the greater number of
scholarships are awarded to
students of “better” (financed)
schools, so that the parents who
are more able to afford to pay for
their son’s or daughter’s
apprenticeship are more often
aided by public funds.
The University not only
exploits segments of the society,
it is busy looking for ways to do it
more systematically. Allowing for
both the class interests of most of
those people doing research and
the interests of those higher
ranking in the system of wealth,
power, the amazing amount of
garbage passed off as social
research is not so surprising.
The jobs available and the
work produced tends to support
the ruling class employing the
researchers, writers, experts.
Sociologists conduct studies
which show how stupid factory
workers are because they work
better when attention is paid to
them. Industrial sociologists do
“efficiency” studies so that
corporations will know how best
to impose “speed-up” on the
workers.

Q; Why are there no phones for students' use at the Ridge Lea
Student Center?
A: This was an error of omission, i.e., no one had requested such
of the Office of Facilities and Planning. When informed of this Action
Line question, Mr. F. Manning, assistant manager of Norton Hall,
immediately placed an order for a phone to be installed in the lounge
of the Ridge Lea Student Center.

Q: Mow caa one go jogging on Rotary FicM in the evening? A man
with a huge dog ordered us away when we went there to jog.
A: For safety reasons, Rotary Field is closed at dusk. Any student
interested in jogging, on a regular basis, should contact James Peelle.

are interested, a group can be organized and special arrangements made
to use campus facilities under supervised conditions.

repair

and, therefore, useless. The Physics Department was notified of this
last year but no repairs have been made.

A: Replacement chairs have been in order with the original
manufacturer for some time, but since no delivery date has yet been
given, a contract was let with a local foundry for new parts, etc. In the
meantime, broken chairs will be removed and replaced by chairs from
another room and repairs to remaining chairs will be taken care of at
the same time.

Q: When the Financial Aid Office is out of funds, is there any
place a student might receive federal loans or funds to complete the
next semester’s education?
A; Gary Blumberg, assistant to the director of the Financial Aid
Office, stated: “When the Office of Financial Aid is out of funds, there
will be no federal money available to a student; i.e.. Federal Loans.
Work Study jobs, or Educational Opportunity Grants. However,
students may borrow funds through New York State by utilizing the
New York Higher Education Assistance Corporation (NYHEAC)
program. If the student is not a legal resident of New York Slate, he or
she should check into the guaranteed loan program of his or her) state.
Applications for New York residents may be secured at the Office of
Financial Aid or at your local bank.”

Q: Why was last semester's Final Exam Schedule published so
late?

A: Robert J. Graves, director of the Division of Scheduling stated:
“The examination schedule for the fall semester, 1968. was first
published on the back cover of the pre-registration bulletin issued in
March, 1968. That time schedule was complete except for room

_

assignments.

“The second exam schedule publication was in departmental
hands as early as Dec. 12, 1968, nine days before close of classes. This
schedule merely added the room assignments as well as the assigned
times for graduate course exams.
“Students who did not maintain their pre-registration schedule of
classes and feel the need to know the exam date sooner in order to
make return travel arrangements should contact their departments or
University College. If these units do not know, they will contact us.
Student calls directly to the Division of Scheduling and Inventory
simply delay the overall publication of the schedule.
Q; Who owned the land on which the University now stands
before it was taken over by the University?
A: The land was owned by the County and purchased from the
County Supervisors in 1909 Before the University purchased the land
and the buildings thereon, it served as the “County Alms House." i.e .
Poor House.

Poetry

Poverty in Man and Living
The focus of this seminar was on the
educational system: its form, function and
content. The discussion started with several
statements comparing the student at this
University with the student of a slum, both
poverty-stricken but in different ways. The
forum progressed from a focus on the
University to a wider scope: Education as
it is seen in all areas of life, creativity as
being stifled, and the importance of a
socialist nature for a free society.

Faculty Senate and Bicameral
10 a.m
Legislature
The structure of the Faculty Senate was
discussed as well as the Senate functions
through its committees. To illustrate, a
description was given of the way the recent
changes in academic program (four-course
'load, removal of basic requirements and
revision of distribution requirements and
grading reform) came into being from the
original idea to the formulated policy.
Various aspects of bicameralism were
discussed as well as the steps that must be
taken to bring a Student Senate into being.

12 p.m.

Talk on Anything
Professor Bruce Jackson’s explanation
of Monday and Tuesday evening meetings
was that student groups got together
because nothing was being done. He
clarified that the split which occurred at
the latter meeting ended organizational
dissention and led to separate group
planning of the teach-in. Joy Peskin stated
that the faculty and administration are
working for an integrated campus but the
students aren’t. It was also pointed out
that the students are being sacrificed to the
future Amherst campus. A question was
raised as to whether people were working
within their departments.
—

Engineering and the University
Topics discussed at this meeting were
the engineer’s individual moral
responsibility, defense contracts, the
allocation of funds of the University and
the community, military parity, the
possibility of perversion of research and
institutionalized racism. Proposals were
mad&amp; to divert all research funds through
the National Science foundation.

I p.m. Undergraduate Education
The Undergraduate Education teach-in
discussed the subject matter of education
courses, the relevance of these courses,
student representation, curriculum and tKe
problems confronting the student once he
reaches an institution of learning. Proposals
were made to do away with or supplement
theory and book-learning courses with
practical and operational ones to add more
observation and participation courses, to
incorporate a program to put the student
in a school setting before his senior year,
and to allow education courses to be taken
as electives and not requiring specific ones.

Third World
Problems in Asia
The discussion started with a definition
of the Third World. The direction of the
teach-in then moved into the need for the
Third World to become economically
stable and independent. The meeting also

also discussed.

Later such general ties led to the
question: “Who has effective power on the
campus?” A distinction was made between

the organizational flow charts and real
power. Several people stated the opinion
that President Meyerson does not have the
power that he is often credited with.
Real power, it was resolved, lies with
the Faculty Senate and its executive
committee and within the individual
faculties.

Columbia and National Rebellion
Jeff Mareback, a former Columbia
student, gave some background on the
Columbia student uprising and compared
the situations at Buffalo and Columbia.
In comparing the two schools, Mr
Mareback emphasized that President

never lets an issue get too “hot.” Also,

Art History and Faculty
Art history students presented a list of
demands to their professors. The demands
accepted were: 1) establishment of equal
voting power for students on faculty
meetings; 2) abolition of comprehensive
exams; 3) integration of studios and
academic programs, and 4) restructuring of
courses in the inter-disciplinary approach.
A second student-faculty meeting was
planned to continue the negotiations on
the remaining demands.

The session began with a call for unity
of graduate and undergraduate English
students by David Fletcher, vice president
of the Association of Graduate English
Students (AGES).

5:30 p.m. Sciences teach-in
The topics discussed were defense
contracts, the possible perversion of
research, priorities in the allocation of
resources, an open letter to the University
community, the establishment of better
student -faculty-administration relations,
tenure, the lack of cooperation of the
faculty with the teach-ins, the failure to
make education available for the scientist
along the lines of his morality, the nature
of the University, institutionalized racism,
language, problems that exist between
students and foreign faculty and students
and the incorporation of ill-prepared
students, especially minority students, in
the University educational structure.

Sports Information Director
Dick Baldwin said that the $ 12.50
athletic fee would be used to
upgrade and expand other sports
such as backetball and wrestling
to meet the requirements of the
NCAA university division.
Presently, only football meets the
requirements.
He also mentioned the
possibility of elevating hockey
and crew to varsity status and
introducing new sports, such as
skiing.
Money from the increased fee
would be available to send top
individuals to compete in
post-season tournaments. In' this
context, Mr. Baldwin mentioned
the fencing team which has some
members of All-America caliber
and said that he doubted that
anyone could be sent to the
NCAA championships later this
month due to a lack of money.
Scott Slesinger, head of the
Student Athletic Review Board,
said that his committee would
begin shortly to look into plans to

for the purposes of adding
facilities to accommodate the
inadequate intramural program.

Students turned out in large numbers to

-II Cor. 6:2
°

Questioned as to exactly how
much fee money will go where,
Mr. Slesinger replied: “Ratios
can’t be established until a more
precise assessment of how much it
will cost to improve intramurals is
made." When this assessment is
completed, “the Student Athletic
Review Board will recommend
improvements to the Polity and
they will get first priority.”
He explained that there is “a
good chance that the school or
the state will pick up funding.”
Currently, the state "provides
maintenance facilities and what
they consider an adequate
intramural program that really
isn’t adcquate."
He indicated that the
committee would begin to look
for a new director to head the
newly reorganized Department of
Physical Education, Recreation
and Athletics. The committee will
also look into the possibilities of
conference play with schools who
do not utilize grant-maid
scholarships for athletics.

A player’s view
by

Dick Horn

The passing of the $12.50 athletic fee is riot a victory for the
Athletic Department; it is a victory for students who were concerned
enough not to allow vital branches of the University tree to wither and
die.-It is a reflection of the sentiment expressed at the convocation in
Clark Gym Monday. More and more people are going beyond their
course work and are becoming interested in the direction in which the
University is going.
This is one of the few times in recent histoty that a substantial
over an issue
portion of the “faceless mass” became concerned
to actually work together toward the fulfillment of its beliefs. And this
was not just the work of a bunch of “hyper” athletes; there was a lot
of effort put forth by people who have never set foot in a locker room.
I see signs of real cooperation and increasing unity. Whether these signs
are to become realities is the next challenge.

Although the total vote of 4048 in the referendum represents the
largest turnout on any campus issue, I am greatly disappointed.
Issues of such wide concern should command much more of an
electorate. To those 6000-odd voices that always remain silent. 1 ask
Do you even have a voice?
We’ve got a slice of the action now. We’ve got the power we’ve

long sought. Students on the Athletic Review Board and the
University-wide Athletics Committee bear the large responsibility of
channeling this power into a workable formula of action. We wanted

Dr. Richard Siggelkow, vice
for student affairs,
delivered a bombshell Friday
afternoon to a standing-room
crowd in the Norton Hall
Conference Theater'
Reading a statement addressed
to Jim Chiswell, he stated that,
after conferring with Dean
Anthony Lorenzetti and the
members of his staff, he was
prepared to work with a
committee consisting of delegates
from both national and local
fraternal organizations to bring
the question of Greek recognition
to “all possible levels.”
He also said that he saw the
return of Greek organizations to
eampus in the same light as the
question presently under fire
concerning an integrated work
force at the Amherst construction
site, in that both situations
involve the University’s
responsibility in regard to matters
directly concerning it.
Dr. Siggelkow likened the
return of the matter to local
jurisdiction to that of the
alcoholic beverage question
decided last year.
After the presentation of his
statement, Dr. Siggelkow opened
the meeting to questions. When
questioned on his personal stand
on the matter, he said that he was
prepared to remain faithful to his
present feelings at the risk of
jeopardizing his administrative
preisdent

In its place was
astonishment
that an
administrative official with such
rank was not only in support of
their movement, but actually
putting himself on record asl
unequivocably determined to
secure a favorable decision.
The statement, which follows,
was received with a standing
ovation. The text reads:
“While recognizing that the
original ban wals established
through SUNY Trustee action in
Albany, this is a most appropriate
time to reconsider the question on
the basis of right of association
and the autonomy of this unit of
the State University system to

suggest that the Trustees return
the jurisdiction of University
facilities and their use for the
national fraternities to the local
councils.

“I am prepared, with the full
involvement of those students
interested in doing so, to reopen
this matter. If the question
ultimately remains unresolved
after being reconsidered at all
levels, 1 do not see how, in good
conscience, I can personally
continue to support a regulation
so directly in opposition to
institutional autonomy and the
basic right of individuals to
associate with each other.”

position.

He also added that he would
prefer to see the problem settled
through the means he suggests
rather than resorting to court
action involving a test case. Such a
case, Dr. Siggelkow stated, would

Gruber

Stresses cooperation
He also stressed the necessity
of the continued acceptance by
the Greeks of present University
policy in order to avoid an
unfavorable reaction in Albany.
Addressing the
national
organizations, he stated: "You
have my admiration for being
cooperative in the past 1 suppose
I’m asking you to walk one last
mile.”

In regard to the Greek role in
the University, the vice president
professed a hope that fraternal
organizations would exhibit
greater involvement with the
University community as a whole.

reigned in the Conference Theater

of the tempestuous Monica filled his tormented
brain.
The stairs creaked under her confidently erotic
step. Monica lifted her lithe body up the staircase,
her sinuous step slapping the staircase, her tresses
cascading with seductive abandon about rouged
cheeks. Fornication was written all oyer her jaded
face. She loved conquering men. She was a pirate of
passion.
She slithered up to his door.
He sensed the electricity in the air. His book
dropped to the floor as the door reeled on its hinges
as she kicked it open with her jaded toe.
“No, no,” he cried as she stood in the doorway,

her nostrils dilated and one eye brow seductively
arched. “Wanna mess around?"
“You fiend, come no closer, you voluptuary
You’ll ruin no more lives.”
"Show me your etchings, Zol,” she taunted as
she swayed over to him. “You didn't used to be so
shy

...”

Are you insinuating that we’ve been more than

friends?

She drew closer with the cunning of a lioness
stalking a frightened antelope, her primal femininity
filling the room. He knew only too well that his

resistance would be worthless if she but touched
him. She approached his chair. He sat transfixed in
an electric paralysis. She touched him and it was
over. The shock waves raced through his body as he
surrendered, limpid with love.
His chest palpitated rapidly as he pleaded
Monica, be cruel, be cruel."
Their lips met in incendiary frenzy. He became
dizzy and giddy as she drained the fire out of his
body. Her hands caressed his moist hair. Their lips
met again in tempestousness as he protested. "Please,
you're fogging up my glasses.”
Her face was like an obscene phone call. He
looked up at her and said simply, “savage,"
He gently shut his eyelids, blatantly soliciting
more passion.

She looked into his childish face and realized
the absurdity of the situation. She began to laugh
uncontrollably and dropped his body to the floor.
The near fracture of his skull shot sensibility
back into his system. Fury overtook him.
“You little trollop, you sexual parasite, out of
my sight, you pernicious purveyor of passion!"
Convulsed with laughter she wandered
dangerously close to the window. Wounded pride
welling in his body, he raced to her and she tumbled
jaut of the window. He stood there viewing
h-r
lifeless form, now a mangled mass of flesh sprawled
ignominiously in the tawdry alley. “Chalk up one for
decency, he declared as he closed the window
with
frightening finality.

‘You work from the inside’
To the editor:
A student should be made to understand that he
is the University. Without students there would be
no University. Therefore, it is his obligation to build,
not to destroy; to think before acting. He should be
proud to say: “I go to the State University of
Buffalo.”
Of course, if he disagrees with something here,
he should work to change it. Otherwise lie won’t
have pride in this institution. But he should realize
that constructive things don’t happen overnight
only revolutions do. And that’s like working
backwards. Institutions are always somewhat
resistant to change. That’s because they’ve been
rolling for quite some time. You don’t stop a diesel
train going 90 mph by building a brick wall in front
of it. It’ll go right through!
You work from the inside - get it!
The student shouldn’t expect the Universily to
do some magic for him. He should see what he can
do for this University,” meanwhile becoming an
erudite person with something to contribute to the
society he so oft criticizes.
Joe Hawryiuk

Issues termed ‘obscure’
To the editor.
The question “What is the meaning of
education?” has been raised in a leisurely manner
now and again in the University this week. 'I seemed
not to have been a very important consideration in
the light of various urgent “reforms” and other
impending "policy decisions” which Mr. Meyerson
challenged the undergraduate body Monday to
“produce.”

There were more than 200 questions submitted. He
had enough time to answer only five. These five
questions were selected solely on the basis of their
being fairly representative of the rest (there was a

State University of New York at Buffalo

Over 100 different seminars, discussion groups,
committees, rallies and panels are meeting this week
to discuss the problems of the University and the
tactics necessary to implement change. For a roundup
of events and a tentative schedule for today,
see page 6.

Construction may
halt in Amherst
by Dennis Arnold

Staff Reporter

In a crucial step to ensure racial
equal opportunity within the work
force in the construction of the new
campus in Amherst, the central administration of the State University
of New York has initiated action
designed to halt construction if racist
Wring practices continue.
This move came Wednesday in answer
to a request by Peter M. Regan, executive
vice president, that a moratorium be placed
on further construction until Governor
Rockefeller’s recommendations on this
issue are finalized.
Presently, “grubbing and clearing”
operations are in progress on the site of the
new campus. These include the removal of
shrubbery, trees and several buildings
abandoned by previous owners. To
accomplish this work, the State
Construction Fund awarded an $80,000
contract.

Workers employed for this job are
members of Local 17 AB
C of the
°pcrating engineers’ union. Because this
1200-man union has no black or Puerto
Rican members, the State Construction
Fund has empowered its lawyers to take
measures to stop the present construction.

When we restart after the Governor’s
P ai has been put into effect, we’d be
starting
off with a clean slate.”
Allan Brownstein, graduate student in
0c&gt;al Welfare,
led a teach-in in the
'

Fillmore Room designed to encourage an
exchange of information on proposals and
previous action regarding the integrated
work force.

Robert Ketter, vice president for
facilities planning, disclosed that the state
labor department has said that at least 500
new union members will be needed on the
Niagara Frontier every year from now until
1975.

,

His comment came during discussion of
a letter sent by the Building and Trades
Council of Buffalo to Arthur O. Eve,
sponsor of an Assembly bill calling for the
establishment of a $3-million construction
school to train minority group workers.
The Council
local branch of the
had told Mr. Eve that the
AFL-CIO
school was unnecessary because a sufficient
labor force already was available.
-

Future provisions
Dr. Ketter also outlined plans for a
contract mechanism by which payment of
funds to contractors would be suspended if
racist hiring practices are discovered. He
intends to have this clause included in all
future contracts to be awarded for
construction on the new campus. Dr.
Ketter added that “the Amherst campus
will not be built without an integrated
work force.”
Asked about the proposed moratorium,
Mr. Brownstein said: “I think this is a
significant act of good faith on the part of
the administration. Student groups should

such as telegramming Perry Duryea, state
assembly speaker, in support of Arthur O.
Eve’s bill.”
In addition, Student Association
President Rick Schwab has sent a letter to
Governor Rockefeller urging the Governor
to meet with University officials and
community civil rights groups to discuss
this issue. At a town meeting early last
month at Kleinhans Music Hall, the
Governor had promised that such a
meeting would be held shortly.

Dean Brutvan replies to
MFC student demands

-

BINGHAMTON
Thirty students at Harpur College went on a
hunger strike in support of three undergraduates who were suspended
last Dec. 12 for allegedly blocking access to the campus of a Marine
-

recruiter.
The “hunger strikers” took up their posts in the main
administration building and said they would continue the fast until
amnesty is granted the suspended students. At night they plan to retire
to the dormitory lobby to continue the strike.
GENESEO
A group of 30-40 students refused to leave the
student union at State University College at Geneseo until a list of
demands are met by officials. The action made Geneseo the fourth
upstate New York college this week to have a building occupied by
student demonstrators.
College administrators met with the group, which claimed no
affiliation with any specific campus organization, and were presented
with demands, including the abolition of women’s curfew hours and a
student voice in the tenure of faculty.
-

BERLIN The West’s main highway to West Berlin was closed for
three hours today and a U.S. Army train was reported shot at as it
moved across East Germany.
The action came as the East Germans claimed credit for avoiding a
showdown with the Allies over the West German presidential election
held in the isolated city Wednesday.
-

PARIS
South Vietnam cut short the Vietnam peace' talks in
protest against the Communist shelling of towns and cities in South
Vietnam. Vice President Nguyen Cao Ky already was hinting that
Saigon might pull out of the talks altogether.

meetini set for ton!

The Millard Fillmore Student Association, one of the MFC: Adults

most active cohesive groups during the week-long University
meetings dialogues and demands, will hold an open meeting

tonight in room 147, Diefendorf Hall.
The MFC Executive Committee and Dean of MFC
Donald R. Brutvan will be
present to discuss all problems relating to the University and the role of the MFC.
Instead of calling for the
cancellation of classes, the
Executive Committee feels that
“more can be accomplished by
letting classes continue and
supplying all classes with copies of
the MFC position paper.”
Seven demands have been
formulated by the Executive
Committee and presented to Dean
Brutvan, who has issued a reply to
them. They are:
“We demand that, since Millard
Fillmore College is recognized as a
Community College it be opened
to all members of the community
with a high school diploma or
equivalent, in the belief that
community interests mandate this
course.

“We demand budgetary
consideration for more and better
courses in Millard Fillmore
College and further there be
complete cooperation with
student bulletin board programs.
“We demand that recent
changes in curriculum such as the
four course plan, pass-fail grading,
etc., be implemented in the
Millard Fillmore College programs
as it is in the University College
program.
“We demand of the whole
University community a unified
equal registration so that Millard
Fillmore College students will no
longer have to suffer hours of red
tape in obtaining courses offered
through day school programs, and
that a mechanism be set up by
means of which night school
students who work in the day
time are guaranteed course
continuity. Provided that this
policy is maintained, Millard
Fillmore College courses then

should be opened to all other
students.
“We support the maintenace of
the Millard Fillmore College
administration if they meet this
list of demands, and that their
main concern should be to further
the interests of Millard Fillmore
College students with more and
better courses, and better
teachers.
“The Millard Fill mote College
students will no longer tolerate
being treated as second class poor
relatives by the administration, or
by the separate departments, and
we demand equal consideration
with all other groups in the
academic community.
“We demand that there be no
interference on the part of
administration concerning
MFCSA fees. This will be
completely determined and
administered by the Student
Association.”
These demands were attached
to a statement of Sunday’s joint
session of the Time Out Steering
Committee.

Open admissions
Jeffrey Scott, member of the
MFCSA, explained that “since
then the Executive Committee has
met and further discussed the
proposals. Dean Brutvan
submitted his reply to our
proposals. His reply stimulated
another meeting of the Executive
Committee. The Executive
Committee at that time evaluated
the deap’s reply, along with the
other demands made by the
CTUB, and the position paper was
the result of that meeting.”
In his reply to the demands.
Dean Brutvan claimed that the
first proposal is in essence a call
for open admission into MFC. In
line with this the credit staff of
the Division of Continuing
Education has previously
proposed admissions criteria for

Petition date extended

must reside in the
commuting area, hold a high
school or equivalency diploma,
and are married or have family
responsibilities or are full-time
employed, financially
self-supporting, or retired. Those
who fulfill these requirements but
have had prior college work must
an overall average of C or
better or have an average in line
with MFC retention standards.
Rebutting this reply, the MFC
Executive Committee charged
that this admissions policy leaves
out recent high school graduates
who are not self-supporting.
Replying to the second and

third

demands. Dean

explained

Brutvan

that budget controls

both increased programming and
innovation. “Any increase in
credit hours per course
such as
the four course load - will result
in fewer courses if the support
level for MFC is static.” In
response to this, the Executive
Committee asserted that a
shortage of funds “should not be
an obstacle to the improvement
and the development of more
progressive programs.”
It continued: “We urge not
only the MFC Administration but
also the
Day School
Administration to immediately
seek funds from the State to
support not only the four course
plan but other considerations such
as more and better courses.”
-

Student input needed

Dean Brutvan stated that the
fourth demand is being worked
on;
“The need for guaranteed
class openings inhibits a system of
complete flexibility, but we will
continue to study the problem
and hopefully come up with a
solution this semester for
implementation in the fall.” In
the rebuttal to this reply, the
Executive Committee demanded
equal

representation

on

any

committee working for this
solution and the right to maintain
equal voting privileges.
Replying to the fifth demand.

Dean

Brutvan

cited

past and

present attempts on the part of

the MFC staff “to retain and
maintain proper University
concern for the evening student
All that is needed is input to
the staff concerning teacher
evaluation by the students.”
The Executive Committee
countered this by stating that the
demand is directed not only to
the MFC administration, but to
tne entire University community,
especially at the departmental
levels. “We urge all departments
to evaluate, not only the courses
they are extending to MFC, but
also the faculty members they
appoint to teach MFC courses.

�Black students present demands
ROCHESTER (UPI) Black students at
two separate Rochester schools are in
control of campus buildings, seeking to
force officials to accept similar demands.
-

The latest take-over occurred when 28
members of the Black Students’ Union
occupied the top two floors of a building
at the University of Rochester. Blacks
chained the doors shut at the four-story
Frederick Douglas Building, housing a
bookstore, student lounges and a faculty
club and dining hall.
Frank Dowd, provost in charge of
student affairs, said the University would
allow the students to remain in the
building and would discuss the demands.
Charles Lickerson, a black graduate student
and advisor to the BSU, said blacks would
meet with newsmen and hold a rally later.
At the Colgate Rochester Divinity
School, a small group of Negro seminarians
occupied the main building for the fourth
consecutive day. They took over the
building, blocking doors and sleeping on
the floor and on desks during nights.
School President Dr. Gene Bartlett said
a decision on how long the blacks would be
allowed to hold the building, which houses
classrooms, offices and the chapel, would
be on a day-to-day basis.

“We are trying to handle this in a
Christian context,” officials said at the
152-year-old ecumenical school.
The major points of an eight-point
package presented by the BSU group called
on University of Rochester officials to hire
15 black professors, a black recruiter and
coordinator, as well as enroll 100 black
freshmen in September.
BSU also demanded a $ 1.5-million
appropriation for black studies and
$25,000 to pay for books for the program.
Black seminarians, numbering fewer
than 20 at the main building Strong Hall
called on officials to hire additional
black teachers and administrative
personnel. Bartlett said he apd the trustees
basically agreed to the demands, but
needed more time to work out
arrangements.
Except for the presence of the
demonstrators and campus security forces
at the buildings, both schools remained
quiet during the morning. At the
University, campus police occupied the
bottom floors of the Douglas building and
barred anyone from entering.
The University of Rochester has about
8400 students, while the Colgate Rochester
Divinity School has 200 students.

Nixon optimistic on Mideast
WASHINGTON (UP1)
President
Nixon said he believes “considerable
progress” has been made in the last week
toward profitable talks to simmer down
the Mideast.
He said that if diplomatic probes
continue at their present rate “it seems
likely that there will be four-power
discussions ip the United Nations on the
Mideast.”
Such talks would be between the Soviet
Union, the United States, Great Britain,
and France. Nixon stressed that these
countries “cannot dictate a settlement.”
He said: “The time has passed in which
great nations can dictate to small nations
their future.”
Nixon said that during his European trip
closer understanding with Britain and
France was achieved on the Middle East
and the United States has also held
“encouraging talks with the Soviet
-

ambassador.”

Replying to a question Nixon said: “We
are far away from the time when the Arabs
and Israel can sit down together at the
negotiating table.”

However, he said, “it is our hope” that
such negotiations will be possible after
four-power talks produce concrete
recommendations for the framework of a
Mideast settlement.

Top items
,

Nixon named the Mideast crisis and the

strategic arms race as two top items which
the United States and the Soviet Union
would probably put at the head of any
agenda for talks between the two powers.
“Talks are already going on,” he said.
“The conversations which are going on
between Soviet Ambassador Alexei
Dobrynin, myself and Secretary of Stale
Rogers are substantive already.”
Nixon said he had been led “to a
cautious conclusion that the Soviet Union
will play a peace-making role not only in

the Mideast but in Vietnam.”
The President said he thought the Soviet
Union recognized that if the Middle East
gets out of control “the result could be a
confrontation with the United States.”
“"Each of us knows what a
confrontation would mean,” he said.

Finch announced the new steps in a

report was requested by Congress in the

“Every effort has been made by this

Finch told Congress these are some of
the “subtle forms” of school segregation:

zones, assignment of black teachers in
predominantly black schools, and allowing
substantial difference in expenditures per
pupil between predominantly black schools
and predominantly white schools.
Finch said districts where apparent law

Permission has now been

employee relations. Talks may be

Meanwhile, Republicans are
ready to ram stiff penalties against

focused on an “open admissions

The University center, as
defined by those members of the

would include a two-year junior

primarily of the Buffalo area

n was the general opinion of
those present that having such a
junior co n ege integrated with the

implement a type of program
aimed at aiding underprivileged

of the Buffalo
community.

Arthur Kaiser, director of
office of Admissions and Records
brought up the issue of limited
resources of the University. He
said that the facilities, budget and
facu lty of the University are
“finite” an d in light of this
condition, there is questions as to
what could be done to make room
for a program for underprivileged
persons.

Explaining the situation
further, Dr. Kaiser has estimated
12,000 applications to the
freshman class. There are
approximately 1800 places in that
class, and of the number of
applicants 8000 to 9000 are
well-qualified for admission to the
University.

Dr. Lohns asked that anyone
who has a suggestion as to what
policy of admissions should be
undertaken to aid underprivileged
students should contact him.

The Executive Committee of
the Faculty Senate unanimously
passed a resolution Tuesday
urging “all members of the faculty

Dr. Lohns responded that there
many instances of vacant
rooms and other campus facilities.
He said that there must be some
way that these facilities could be
used to conduct classes for
persons needing preparation for
college level study.
Concerning faculty teaching of

although most faculty members
leave campus when they have

of the Faculty

Senate, explained that the
Executive Committee “does not
believe that classes should be
cancelled on a University-wide
basis.”
He said that a decision to halt
all classes could come from the
President’s office, but that this
power would probably not be
exercised “unless there were some
clear advice to do so from the
constituted bodies.”
“It is my feeling that here is a
type of contact in a classroom,”
he continued, and added that
“classes are a good place for
teaching to take place.”
Emphasizing that the

Executive Committee had never
supported a cancelling of classes.
Dr. Garver said that it "doesn’t
mean they never would.”
At this point, the opinion of
the Executive Committee is that

demands and analysis issued as a focal point by the joint session of
March 2. The second half ■ will appear in Monday’s issue of The
Spectrum. The demands were incorrectly identified in Wednesday's

'There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so
odious, makes you so sick at heart that you can’t take part; you can’t
even tacitly take part, and you’ve got to put your bodies on the gears

A statement of principle
In his statement Mario Savio
spoke for a generation of young
people who have become
increasingly radical and critical of
the organizational machinery
grinding their lives into atomic
fragments of cringing work and
electronic leisure. The Berkeley
Free Speech Movement of 1964
was just a beginning, but its spirit
has been the spirit of all the
student revolts since.
Faced with the ignorance of
little minds operating from an ant
hill of power, we have demanded
democracy. We have said that
universities are for teachers and
students and that we should
rightfully run them while
administrators administrate IBM
machines and empty trash cans.
We have
fought against
institutions (and the elites which
run them) which suppress our
human qualities and potentialities
and destroy our dignity. We have
come to recognize that this
society was not constructed for
human beings.
The new “multiversity” is a
factory that turns out scientists.

become ends instead of means.
Men have become slaves of their
own organizational creations.
Our fight at State University of
Buffalo is for no less than human
survival in the face of an

energy-destroying,
mind-paralyzing, anti-life system.
We must liberate ourselves from
this colossus of history, this
monster which thinks that human
loyalty can be bought with
affluence and pension plans. We
must create alternatives: we must

build real communities where
human beings can work and play.
The Great Refusal has begun

To

the

governing class the

university is a “factory” designed
to produce graduates with a
general ideological commitment
to capitalism and with the training
necessary to be the technicians

management personnel
required for industry and defense.
The millions of dollars channeled
into universities by the governing
class are, for them, essentially an
investment in people which, like
any investment, is expected to
yield certain returns. Their
investment determines the nature
of grading systems and scholarship
mechanisms which provide the
rewards and punishments that
channel human talents into
and

specified occupations.

Exploitation of students
In this section we shall try to
understand the basis for the fact
that students are among the most
exploited members of society
despite the contentions to the
contrary on the part of those who
run the universities and other
corporations for making specific
products.

In trying to understand the
revolutionary tendencies in almost
all modern, industrialized
countries, we see that the
so-called “generation gap” or
“youth. rebellion” is actually a
coming to consciousness of a large
segment of society which realizes
that its reason for being in society
is less and less relevant or
necessary. This new class, youth,
sees that the kinds of activities
demanded by society are useless
in coming to grips with the
fundamental problems we face.
Witness the fact that in the last
two decades, the defenseeducation complex has taken in
two-thirds of the increase in the
18 to 64 year old laboring
population.
Society has developed the
school as the major socializing and
labeling weapon to offset any
phenomena it considers liable to
seriously alter the existing status
quo and especially that would
threaten to change (he current
power structure.

The

universities are used to
trivial things about
keeping the current mechanics of
the political, economic, social
aspects of society in operation.
Many students are only fit best
now to continue the antiquated
educational establishment or to
function as a cog in the' gears for

demanded by the military
establishment. Then industries
and government have the audacity
to complain when taxes have to
go up to support what in effect
are the training programs for the
necessary workers in their
increasingly technological society.

school went to work for any

the people not only of the
University but of society as a
whole. Its main task has not been

of the fullest human capacities of
each individual.

Because of the dependence of
the U.S. economy on war-related
industry and the proportion of
the Gross National Product (more
than one-third) in the “knowledge
industry,” we say that an
overwhelming majority oT
students are being socially and
economically coerced into the
defense-education complex as an
alternative to the draft or a
low-paying job.

On the concrete level we cite
the example of the graduate
students here who do most of the
teaching (compared to the
faculty) in many departments,
and then receive so little pay for
their duties. The number of
contact hours the T.A.’s are
engaged in their work leads us to
the conclusion that this University
is building a big-name faculty who
are enticed to come here on the
promise (understood) of small
classes, few courses, high pay, and
prestigious colloquia, at the direct
expense of the teaching assistants.

�East High students
to visit University
“In an attempt to make the
University of Buffalo
relevant, meaningful, and
therefore, within the aspirational
reach of the City of Buffalo’s
disadvantaged high school
students, as a start, a day at this
school is being planned March 13
for the sophomore class of East
'
'
High School,"
This program is “not to be
considered a one-shot attempt at
communication and cooperation"
between East High School and the
University. Rather, it is the start
of a continuing relationship.
Continued articulation and
coordination between the
University and East High School
guidance staff and students could
become the responsibility of a
committee of students
representing: 1) Black Students
Union; 2) EPIS Independent
Study program; 3) Student
Tutorial program (Upward
Bound); 4) other black University
students; 5) US Now and 6) East
High School students.”
The day is scheduled such that
the formal activities will be in the
morning. The sequence includes
distribution of materials
concerning the University and its
special programs, explanation of
admission requirements, welcomes
by various University officials,
and presentations of the
Independent Study and Student
Tutorial programs.

A few curious individuals, including myself, have wondered who

that student money paid for part or most of the material;.

In truth, the financial angels behind the
were the Boosters club, a group dedicated to the task of building and
supporting a big-time athletic program. The Boosters are a recognized
corporation in the framework of the General Alumni Organization.
According to Frank Reid and
Terry Endress, two leaders of the
Committee for $12.50 athletic fees,
the big problem when the group
organized was where they would get
some money
for advertising.
Through members of the athletic
A&lt;V( V A t
department, they were put in
contact with the Boosters.
Robert Lipp, a Buffalo lawyer
and president of the Boosters,

the team was in the quiet and
unassuming leadership he
provided. Ed was the man his

Nowak honorary captain
The Bulls honored Bob Nowak
by electing him honorary captain
for the 1968-69 year. Nowak, a
transfer from Erie Tech where he
scored 999 points in just two
seasons of competition, spent two
years with the Buffalo Varsity
Cagers. Last season he was the
Bulls’ no. 2 scorer, a season which
saw him shatter the one-half point
production standard when he
bombed Colgate for 21 points in
the first half. This season Nowak
finished as the Bulls’ no. 4 point
producer. Bob’s best performance
of the season came against State
University of Binghamton where
he scored 22 points and was
named to the All-East, Division 2
team at forward for his effort.

this past season consisted of Bill

The Clark Gym calendar, which for the first time sets forth the

open hours that are set aside for use by the University community, has

been long overdue.
It is the by-product of two months of persistent work on the part
ot three dorm students
Don Bergevin,' Elan Cherney and Mark
Lumer
who got sick and tired of being thrown out of the gym by
varsity coaches, women volleyball players and various other segments
of the athletic department.
One day last January, they decided to find out the schedule fof
when Clark Gym was opened for general activities. First, they went to
the University-wide Athletic Committee where they were told that the
problem was under consideration. Next, they proceeded to Claude E.
Welch, Dean of University College, who told them that he didn’t have
a schedule.
Undaunted by this bureaucratic confusion, they went to another
administrator, Richard A, Siggelkow, Vice President of Student
Affairs, who proved to be of some assistance.
He sent them to Bob Deming, the newly-appointed football coach,
who look time out from his own busy schedule to set up the hours and
make up the chart that subsequently became the calendar.
The University community owes these three guys a vote of thanks
for a job well done.

Technology: Defense is the key to
the Tigers’ success. Ken Vokac is
one of the best defensemen in the
league and is a cinch to be named
to the AU League team this year.
The same can be said for goalie
Mark Dougherty, easily the best in

the position approach, for skating
is not one of their strong points.
Major strength: good defense,
spectacular goaltending, home ice

impotent offense.

The meeting, held Wednesday
in Norton Hall, was attended by

possibility of the IFC obtaining

To the editor.
This letter is directed to the student who, at the
2:00 meeting on Monday, March 3, accused the
Resident Advisors of being President Meyerson’s
puppets.
First, let’s understand the facts. On Sunday
morning at 11:00, Dean Welch addressed the
Goodyear House Council on the crisis facing this
campus. Several R.A.S were present. The essence of
this meeting was that all of the students, although
perhaps supporting the demands of the C.T.U.B.,
were not behind the committee’s tactics. A majority
of us did not support a strike
at least until the
administration was heard from and until we were
given sufficient reason to believe that it would not
cooperate as quickly as working within the system
would allow. The important question was whether or
not the moderate element on campus would

There is one question that rides over these three
questions and. indeed, provokes them. That is, can
the subject matter taught and researched in the
School of Management be considered scholarly, on a
par with that taught in the rest of the University.
Ignorance of what is done in Crosby Hall

isn’t it strangely at odds with the administration's
insistence, when confronted by student demands,
that it is committed to an open campus and that it
does not exercise arbitrary paternalistic authority?
As a member of the faculty who attended the

several of these residents, in addition to other
interested students and faculty, met throughout the
afternoon and evening to discuss the question of
student participation from a less vocal segment of
the political spectrum and to propose alternatives to
a strike.
Now that the facts are clear, implications can be
drawn. If one is closer in ideology to the
administration than to revolutionaries, does it
necessarily mean that he is a puppet of the
administration? Or could it possibly mean that after
careful thought and deliberate introspection, one
might come to the conclusion, that, despite gross
inequities in the present system, rational alternatives
to destruction and/or disruption can be implemented
within the existing structure? If this is not the case,

Briefly then, our school is divided into five
departments. Each department is indeed working on
scholarly papers, and making valuable contributions
to fields outside of the business field.
Within each department there are faculty and
students devoted to the pursuit of knowledge in
these fields. If you charge that they are not scholars.

then most of the devoted students and faculties in
the social sciences must be likewise.
I feel that our School of Management faculty

A poem to change

Everyone has gotten into the act: the Left has formed a
political party, the Right has formed, the administration has
come out of its Hayes hole, the faculty is falling over each
and more,
other trying to show who loves students more
and more and more.
But does all this activity represent anything more
substantial or lasting than ‘increased communication?’ Is real
change a foreseeable, immediate possibility? We think not.

committees, or even the establishment of a bicameral

“Your generation is copping out on orderly
footwear marketing,” they say.
In many ways, this is a bum rap.
There is no lack of commitment on the part of
my generation. It is merely a matter of being overrun
with issues. Taking a stand on public issues has
become almost a full-time job.
With intense concentration, a person can
determine his position on orderly footwear
marketing in a single afternoon, and maybe even get
a little work done. But that is a fairly easy decision.
It is nothing compared with making up your
mind as to how you stand on the question of
whether the Agriculture Department should permit
meat packers to put chicken in their frankfurters.
If you haven’t come to grips with that one yet.
my advice is to wait until some time when you have
a week off. It requires a clear head and a strong'

Two weeks are the minimum that should be
allotted to reaching your decision on whether to
build the antiballistics missile system.
Perhaps it will help clarify the issue if you
consider a recent statement made by Rep. Roman C.
Pucinski (D., 111.) to calm fears about the possible
hazard to cities near the proposed missile sites.
“I submit that the worst that could happen if
there were an accidental detonation , . would be one
hell of a big fire and perhaps some limited
concussion in the area,” Pucinski said.
On second thought, maybe you had better take
three weeks.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

State University of Me* York at Buffalo

Wednesday, March 5, 1969

Fox

Despite a mandate for a weeklong teach-in on the problems
facing the University, a proposed Time Out has not yet officially materialized. The *Steering Committee,’ established by
the vote of 3500 people at the
University convocation in Clark
Gym, broke into at least three
factions Monday night, and was
unable to come up with any definite statement on the proposed
cessation of classes. Various faculty members of an individual
or departmental basis are cancelling classes and/or holding

teach-ins, nevertheless.

which students control 50% of the
voting power and membership on
all departmental and University
decision-making bodies, especially
in matters concerning curriculum,
degree regulations and the hiring
and firing of faculty and staff.
We support the idea of a
bi-cameral legislature in this
University in which students have
veto power over the faculty and
vice-versa. This Congress will
replace the powerless Student

5) We demand an end to all
contracting of defense research on
this campus and that all present

projects be stopped.
6) We

demand the abolition of

University ROTC.
7) Realizing that there is no
building or room suitable to
satisfy students’ needs for social,
cultural or political gatherings, we
demand construction of such a
large hall to accommodate deeply
felt student needs. Let this be a
first step in a total architectural
restructuring of this University.
8) We call for the end of

commercialized athletics which
degrade the athletes and deprive
the students of sports. We call for
the building of a student-wide
sports and games structure that
will use athletic scholarships to
employ sports instructors and
coaches to train all students in
athletics.

for

1) Our University is very close
to having a bi-cameral or other
form of participatory legislative
process by faculty and students.
Student groups and groups within
the Faculty Senate have been
exploring such proposals with
favor. I call upon both the
Faculty Senate and the student
governments to develop and
implement a specific course of
action.

2) I ask that Faculties and
Departments expedite and deepen

the curricular review occasioned
by the establishment of a
four-course load; that students be
thoroughly involved in these
reviews; that these reviews
promote more opportunities for
small classes and seminars, and
courses
of a
more
problem-centered and
cross-disciplinary nature.

3) I call for the establishment
University-wide faculty
positions at every academic rank
for teachers whose range cuts
across not only departmental
lines, but across several Faculties
as well. Thus the University would
have instructors and professors
who are 1) departmental or 2)
Faculty-wide
or 3)
University-wide. The new Colleges
would have their fellows and
associates drawn from all three.

S) I call upon the Faculties and
Departments to give evidence that
they will comply with the current
criteria for tenure, appointments
and promotions which include
teaching, and University and
community service, as well as
significant scholarship or other
creative production. Both faculty
and students must prepare
systematic, balanced, and
methodologically sound processes
for evaluation of courses and
teaching. I call for evidence from
the seven Faculties and the

student governments that these
goals will be soon accomplished
6) Academic administrators at
the University should have terms
of no more than five yens. These
terms could be renewed but on!}
after evaluation by faculty and
students. Furthermore, am
administrator who holds a
professorship must do some
teaching. These requirements
should hold for the president, as
well as sice president, provosts,
masters, deans and department
chairmen.

American officials said the 30-minute session at Ky’s residence

Israel reviewing strategy
by

The Christian Science Monitor

Jerusalem
A major
reappraisal of Israel’s anti-terror
strategy is taking shape in the
wake of the most recent terrorist
acts.
At
Jerusalem’s largest
supermarket a time bomb
exploded killing two shoppers and
injuring eight. Three days earlier,
an Israeli El Al airliner had been
attacked by a group of Arab
gunmen just before takeoff from
the airport at Zurich.
Two of the country’s biggest
morning papers carried articles by
their top columnists suggesting
that

massive

reprisals by regular military units
with the emphasis on “regular”

had outlived its usefulness.
(Israeli warplanes bombed two
Arab guerrilla bases across the
Syrian border. Israel said its

Eshkol. He called into serious
doubt the efficacy of the
“educative" reprisal policy and
put forward the idea of replacing
it with the “more efficient
method of countertenor.”

The daily Lamerchav wrote
that “there is no escape from a
severe confrontation between
Israel
and the terror
organizations.”

Another paper demanding
counterterror in so many words
was Yediot Aharonot, which
wrote that Israel has been
worrying too long about what the
world thinks. Instead, the paper
said. Israel should remember that
its foremost objective must be to
eliminate the terror. The editorial
ended with the hope that Defense
Minister Moshe Dayan would also
come around to this way of
thinking.
Up till now, it is known,
suggestions to this effect have
been rejected by successive heads

of the defense establishment.

The most sinking divergence
between them is in the treatment
of the supposed Chinese missile
threat. The President said he did
not “buy the assumption" that
the Sentinel ADM was simply to
protect us from attack by China
But later Laird was saying the
opposite and on the Today show
he t wice said we had to build the
Sentinel because "we do not want
to become hostage of the
Chinese." The overwrought phrase
conjured up pictures of a heroine
in an old movie melodrama held
by Chinese white slavers. Laird
said he thought the Chinese might

fire their first ICBM within the
next 18 months "and they might
(he didn’t say when) develop
some 18 to 20 of these missiles.”
How will a nation with 18 to 20
of these missiles hold hostage a
nation which can deliver (latest

statement a year ago noted that
the Chinese ICBM program was
lagging, said that China would not
have a "significant number” of

declared that these would be
rather slow and unreliable. Less

Clifford in his last defense posture

said this indicated "serious

�Student Association
sets goal: Education
“A body to facilitate all
opinions and proposals” is the
description given to the Student
Association’s role during the
week-long series of meetings,
demands, counter-demands
and discussions given by Penny
Bergman, first vice president.
While more informally
organized groups have been
meeting to rally, debate and
formulate demands, the legitimate
rallies,

governing body of the daytime
undergraduates has taken on the
position of ‘educator-publisher.”
Miss Bergman explained that
the Student Association “wants to
stimulate discussion” and sees this
week as “the best time to get
people involved in thinking about

their education.”
No official position has been
taken by the Student
Associatioion on the demands
that have been formulated by the
Committee to Transform U.B. or
to the response by the
administration. The Coordinating
Council has not met to discuss or
make recommendations on the
issues that have been debated for
the past week.
“The most important thing,”
Miss Bergman stressed, “is that we
act like the mature, sane,
responsible students that we are.”
“We keep talking about
University community. The only
way that it can be implemented is
if we have a strcture of a unified
student government existing with
the Faculty Senate on equal
terms. These two organizations
side by side will determine all
policy for the University.
“The most important thing
right now is for students to get
working on forming the student
half of the bicameral legislature.”
Miss Bergman feels that the
essential task for this week of
discussion is the question of what
are the key issues that the
bicameral legislature will focus
upon.

Taylor Law Revisions
Meanwhile, the governor

and

legislative leaders are working on
revisions in the Taylor Law that
would slap stiffer penalties on
striking state workers.
A
spokesman for the
Republican leadership in the
legislature said agreement on the
new penalties was expected this

week. It is expected that, both
houses will give quick passage to
the bill as soon as it ages on
lawmakers’ desks the three days
required by law, and that it will
therefore go into effect before
March 13.
The penalties being discussed
would fine individual strikers, in
addition to the present fines
striking unions and jailing of thenleaders. Also under consideration
was a provision allowing the
courts to suspend a union’s dues
checkoff privileges for an
unlimited length of time.
Under the present Taylor Law,
the maximum suspension time is
18 months.
The main proposal under
discussion would, in effect, fine a
public employee the equivalent of
two days’ pay for each day he
strikes.
Agreement has been delayed
becsuse some legislators feel this
heavy a fine would be too severe.

A CSEA strike was averted last
year when a compromise salary
agreement was reached between
the organization and the
Rockefeller administration.
The local CSEA chapter has
scheduled a meeting for Thursday
to discuss the strike threat.

University drug policy takes
position of ‘non-interference’
‘‘Possession

without

prescription of any narcotic or
barbiturate drug, or of most
so-called ‘pep pills’ and
‘tranquilizers’ is contrary to
federal and/or state law. Any
student found to be in illegal
possession of drugs must be
reported to the appropriate civil
authorities and is also subject to
disciplinary action by the
University.”
This statement, appearing in
the current student handbook,
expresses University sentiment

towards the much-debated issue
of drug and narcotic use on
campus.

“In the last two years,”
according to Ronald H. Stein,

affairs, “no student who has been
charged with a drug violation has
had any disciplinary action
instituted against him” by the
University.

Legal assistance
Describing the University’s
obligation toward the arrested
student, he termed it as the
“responsibility to make sure that
his constitutional rights be
guaranteed, that he fully
understand charges against him
and that all University resources
be open to him.”
Student Rights Coordinator
Fred Hollander said that Student

These cards will provide the

they are arrested. The service then
will contact Mr. Hollander and
others who are qualified to advise
and assist these students.

Connolly: Faculty Senate
aims at implementing change
by Sarah deLaurentis
News Editor

Throughout the course of
student rallies and debate, masses
in Clark Gym and confrontation
of students with administration,
the Faculty Senate of the State
University of Buffalo has
continued its activities aimed at
implementing several changes in
the University.
Thomas Connolly, Chairman of
the Executive Committee of the
Faculty Senate, discussed some
issues which have been made
prominent by the student
movements of the past week.
Concerning a bicameral
legislature, Dr. Connelly said that
the “Faculty Senate itself is the
greatest action toward a bicameral
government.” He said it is
“unified and ready to operate as
one-half of a bicameral legislative
procedure.”

“No official action will be
taken until students are ready to
meet,” he continued. “They have
refused so far.”
Dr. Connolly termed the
Faculty Senate’s agreement to
University-wide committees
“concrete evidence” of its
intentions.
Students participate equally
with faculty on eight of the nine
committees. They have voting
rights, and are not on the ninth
committee because of their own
choice.
Veto power
He said what is "necessary”
now is a “student senate, not a
student congress.” The student
senate, he explained, would be
parallel to the Faculty Senate.
However, he emphasized that the
two houses should not have the

power of veto over each a focal point of activity in the
other. “No one can conceive of Faculty Senate. Dr. Connolly

Meyerson responds with
academic, social reforms
Adopting a tactic used with
limited effect by the left in the
recent campus awakening,
President Martin Meyerson
presented the University
community with a series of
“demands” that would have a
far-reaching effect on all aspects
of the educational process.
Approximately 3500 students,
faculty and administrators packed
Clark Gym Monday to hear the
address, after students had staged
a solidarity march from the
Fillmore Room in Norton Hall,
where they had been meeting for
three hours.
At one point, the marchers
formed a solid cordon from the

entrance

Mr. Meyerson advocated
reforms including limiting terms
of administrators to five years
renewable only after evaluation
by faculty and students; a
bi-cameral legislature for student
government; University-wide
faculty positions; and a teaching
system more applicable to the
needs of undergraduates.
Although admitting to both
specific and broad deficiencies in
the University, (“I am against the
racism which remains in our
University”), Mr. Meyerson
dwelled on the achievements of
his 2-1/2 year administration: “No
University in the country has been

improved as much as ours in such

a short period of time,” he stated.
This emphasis on the positive
was apparently not what a vocal
minority of the onlookers had
wanted to hear. Some of the
speaker’s remarks brought sharp
retorts from those members of the
audience who might have
expected a more conciliatory
attitude from the president.
In his only explicit reference to
the events of this past week, Mr.
Meyerson declared; “I deplore the
excesses, the authoritarianism and

the mindless obscenity we
have . . . witnessed . . .”
The Committee to Transform
U.B. and other interested students
had been awaiting a reply to their
‘demands’ since Wednesday
evening.

A wide divergence of opinion
evident throughout the
gathering, as a question-andanswer period later revealed.
Claude E. Welch, dean of
University College, expressed
concurrance with Mr. Meyerson’s
proposals in an interview after the
convocation: “I agree with all of
them.”
Stressing the need for the
implementation of the president’s
“demands”, Dr, Welch stated:

The Steering Committee was

An initial battle in the evening
meeting concerned the voting

that was to become the major
difficulty
in addition to the
question of the ‘open’ or ‘closed’
nature of the meeting.

The issue of who shall have

resolved by the decision that all

centered around the fact that it
was impossible to determine the
membership of CTUB.
It was decided that all those

Meanwhile, a motion to open

seven votes cast on any issue.
This motion was then tabled to
give precedence to another vote
on the open or closed nature of
the gathering.
Victor Chire of the GSA
moved that the meeting be closed
to faculty and administration. A
roll-call vote of the approximately
100 persons was called for by
Larry Faulkner, resulting in the

eventual defeat of the measure
after 12 minutes of vote-counting.
The official status of the
meeting was then termed “not
open, but faculty members may
attend.”
The motion on the voting
procedure was then called for a
vote. Mr. Faulkner termed the
resolution a “result of animosity
to the CTUB” since it would cut
their voting strength. This motion
also failed.
Miss Coleman then introduced
a motion concerning the structure
of the proposed teach-in, but
before discussion could proceed, a
motion to adjourn was offered
and passed.

Speaker focuses on
white racism issue

Sick and tired

of rhetoric
Another interpretation t)f the
convocation in Clark Gym was
offered by Speed Powrie of SDS:
“That meeting expresses the
manipulation that Mr. Meyerson
exerts over students to disrupt
their meetings.”

by Sue Bachmann
News Editor

“We live in a nation in which status is all important’.
What make-model car, what type of home, what kind of
clothes you wear, the whole economy is built on status. I
believe that prejudice is geared to this,” said Reginald
Damerell, author and guest speaker on “White Racism in
America.”,
Mr. Damerell was the first
speaker in a month-long
conference on racism sponsored
by the Student Association.
“The black problem is actually
the white problem,” he
continued.
“There is an irrational
prejudice against color. You can
prove to whites that Negroes
won’t lower property values; you
can show them that Negroes
aren’t slower mentally, but people
will be prejudiced because they
see a loss of status if they change
their minds. Also, whites have an
assumption of superiority.
“If a white man receives
criticism from a black man, he
discounts it because the black
man is inferior and therefore
wrong. Yet, the same comment
from a white man, an equal,
would bring instant protest and
anger.”

Damerell cited the
problems of his home town,
Teaneck, N.J., when it was in the
midst of racial integration.
“The Negroes in Teaneck were
as affluent, as cultured as the rest
of the community,” he said.
“In fact, the Negroes had more
degrees, and a generally higher

He added that two voluntary

programs failed, and the
Board of Education was forced to
resort to involuntary busing of the
school children. When the
proposal was announced, there
was an immediate backlash.
Mr. Damerell said that two
segregationists on the Board of
Education maintained that there
was no problem at all, “for wasn’t

The original demands
stimulated continuous mass
meetings in the Fillmore Room as
students rapped about their
problems and expectations. One
result of a meeting Thursday was
that 31 individuals were either
nominated or volunteered to serve
on a committee to coordinate and
publicize the students' decisions.
As the days wore on, the ad
hoc committee of 31 degenerated
to about 8, who were responsible
for composing the “proposition
paper of demands,” distributed as
a possible focal point of
discussion in this week’s Time
Out.
One of the most vociferous
supporters of the demands is Bob
Cohen, graduate student in
Philosophy. Addressing students
at a mass meeting Monday Mr.
Cohen stressed:
“For three days we have had
meetings
it was tremendously
exciting, not because someone
was manipulating them but
because students were genuinely
concerned . . .
“We ought to be committed to
one week of serious discussion on
these issues because there are real
human problems here. We have to
create situations like this to wake
ourselves up . . . most people
don’t even realize they’re living.
We’ve got a society that prepares
us to die . . . not to live,

concluded.

Army?”

“Before 1954, Teaneck was a
lily-white town. The community
wanted to remain white. A Negro
community of an adjoining town
was on the border of Teaneck,
and so as to retain segregation, the
city created a buffer zone
between the black and the white
communities.
“When one Negro purchased a
house on the white side of the
zone, an exodus of his neighbors
suddenly took place. Their
excuses were all the same
stereotypes, ‘Negroes can’t keep
up the houses or the payments,’
and ‘I’m afraid of the rapings and
the violence’.”
With all the propaganda, “The
whites were directed like Pavlov’s
dogs.”

Mr. Damerell charged that the
hate even went to the real estate
agents who would only sell houses
to blacks located in the ghetto
area, while only showing whites
houses that were in the white
area.

“Still,

the

community did

and interaction.” “The
‘confrontation’ between the two
communities eventually destroyed
myths and allowed the town to
peacefully break color barriers,”
he said.
Mr. Damerell was the first
speaker in the month-long
conference on racism sponsored
by the Student Association.
Mr. Damerell is author of
Triumph in a While Suburb, a
book about the Teaneck situation.
He spoke at 3 p.m. Monday in the
Millard Fillmore room.

Israeli strategy.
the chief of staff, Gen. Chaim
Bar-lev have opposed this kind of
activity, holding that Israel should
not “lower itself to the level of
Arab terrorists by striking at
innocent civilians.”

By submitting eight demands to the University
administration, several hundred concerned students, known
as the Committee to Transform U.B., enacted the initial
attempt to restructure the university system.

Although

Second, Israel smarts under

notwithstanding the outward
show of indifference it may
sometimes display. Israelis
complain about what they term
“warped thinking" by nations

operations by Israeli regular forces
against largely military targets,
but describe terror attacks against
Israeli civilians as something that

“understood.”

getting together.”

While students hassled over the
tactics they might employ to
enforce their demands, many
repeatedly expressed fear of
violence. Mr. Cohen commented
that "the only violence I’ve heard
about is from right-wingers.”
However, two leftists, Mitch
Smith and David Scott, later
disrupted the meeting and
informed: “Some students have
forcibly
taken over
Townsend ...” Shortly afterward
another student disclosed that the
building had not been seized.
“My objection to direct action
at this time,” Mr. Cohen
continued, “is not due to a fear of

explain that “we’re not at the
point for mobile tactics yet.” As

Referendum
athletics fee
by Daniel Edelman
Sports Editor

The Student Judiciary, meeting
in regular session Monday, denied
a motion of injunction to stop the

athletic referendum scheduled for

and tomorrow, on the
grounds that there is nothing in
the Polity Constitution that

today

prohibits

recommending a
four-year program of S 1-2.50 fees.

Board of

Trustee

of the suit,
Richard Scott, a senior
philosophy major, contended that
the proposed four-year program
of $12.50 fees was illegal.
The

originator

Scott pointed to J a
resolution of the State University
Board of Trustees adopted in May

Mr.

1968 which states that the
student body at each University
center and college in the state
system is emppwered to fix an
annual fee for the support of
programs of an educational,
cultural, recreational and social
nature.
Nancy Coleman, student affairs
coordinator, emphasized that the
$12.50 fee was recommended for
a four year period Because the
athletic program needs stability.
She added that under Polity rules
anyone who can get 200 names on
a

petition, can

challenge any

action of the Polity. This was in
answer to Mr. Scott’s contention
that it didn’t make any sense to
pass the resolution through
referendum and “try to make
something binding that’s not.”

Just how important is it for students to pass today’s referendum
fora $12.50 athletic fee?
Well, if you’re Howie Plaster, General Manager of the Buffalo
Bulls hockey dub, you know it means the difference between survival
and extinction.

Judiciary

stressed that it had
considerable flexibility in
rejecting the injunction request.
The basis for rejection lay in the
fact that there was nothing in the
student constitution that
prohibited the four year program
and there was some question of
how binding a Board of Trustee
resolution is in this situation.
The referendum,

formulated

by the Student Athletic Review

Board, made its recommendations
after surveying the present
conditions of athletics on campus.

Restructuring
The committee found that the
facilities available on campus were
extremely limited for the physical
education, intercollegiate,
intramural and recreation
programs. Also, the entire
program had to be restructured
and coordinated to meet the
needs of the University
community and in particular, the
undergraduate students.
It acknowledged the fact that
the state had reached its
self-imposed ceiling in athletic
funding and a prior committment
of funding was necessary to
provide for some form of
continuity from year to year and
to facilitate in planning future
programs.

Plaster put it right on the line. “If the fee isn’t raised to $12.50,
there will be no ice hockey here next season.”
“This isn’t a threat,” continued Plaster. “It’s a simple fact. Either
we go varsity here next season, or we close up shop.
“We’re not even asking for scholarships. Just enough money for
uniforms and a couple of road trips.”
For the Buffalo hockey club, then, this is the crossroads. Founded
in 1962 as the dream of 25 hockey-loving students, the Bull icers have
come a long way in the past seven years.
Striving for excellence in every sense of the word, the Buffalo
hockeymen have now reached the pinnacle of success as a club team.
Prior to last weekend’s action, the Bulls 15-2 record was the second
best in the nation, topped only by Cornell’s 21-1 mark.
Hockey Pictorial, a monthly magazine, currently ranks the State
University of Buffalo hockey Bulls the number one club hockey team
in the country. The Bulls are followed in rank by Purdue, Tennessee
and Ohio State.
But the party’s over for Buffalo as a club hockey team and
General Manager Plaster knows it. “We can’t keep going this way,”

admits Plaster.
“As a club team no one will schedule us. Varsity teams just won’t
play us. Even though we play in the Il-team Finger Lakes League,
only RIT and Ithaca are willing to play us. And the club teams won’t
touch us either. We’re too strong for them. Look what we did to
Buffalo State (21-2) and St. John Fisher (13-2).”
In the event Buffalo does go varsity, the Bulls would go into
Division 2 (small college) of the ECAC. “We would play teams like
Vermont, Hamilton, Merrimac and Oswego State,” explained Plaster,
As a varsity team, the Bull icers would also compete against
Division one opponents. And that means the Blue and White would be
locking horns against the likes of Cornell and Colgate. “We’d be happy
to open Buffalo’s 1969 home schedule,” said coach Ned Harkness of
the Cornell Redmen, the NCAA’s number one ranked varsity team.
The contest would be played in Buffalo Nov. 18 if the Bulls went

varsity.

This Friday the Hockey icers travel to Rochester to compete in
the Finger Lakes Hockey Championships. If they return home
victorious, it would be the biggest moment in Buffalo Hockey history.
And if today’s referendum is defeated, it would also be the last.

Athletics referendum...

f

-continued from page 9The committee resolved “that
the undergraduate day-time
students of the State University Of
Buffalo approve the reforms set
forth in the University-wide
Athletics Committee
memorandum and that these
reforms be enacted by September
1969.”

University-wide athletic reforms
The University-wide Athletics
Committee, composed of five
students and five faculty
members, proposed five reforms
that dealt with the general
restructuring of the Athletic
Department.

The reforms were:
A director be named to
supervise all aspects of the campus
athletic program.
U n i versily-wide Athletic
Committee be responsible for
establishing athletic policies and
for determining priorities in the
use of athletic facilities.
University community be fully
informed of the hours when
athletic facilities are open.

Establishment of a Men’s
Recreation Association to plan
and coordinate activities for male
students in the manner of the
Women's Recreation Association.
University-wide Athletics
Committee, in cooperation with
the Student Athletic Review
Board and the Physical Education
Department, consider the need for
the rental of off-campus athletic
facilities.

Athletic scholarships phased out
In a later memorandum, the

University-wide Athletic
Committee recommended “that
the University phase back to its
previous policy of basing
grants-in-aid for student-athletes
upon academic promise and
financial need.” This, along with
the proposals to restructure the
athletic department were accepted
by' University President Martin
Meyerson.

The second provision on the
referendum ties in with phasing
out of athletic scholarships by
the
proposing ‘‘that
University-wide Athletics
Committee examine the
possibilities of conference play;
especially in those conferences
that prohibit grants-in-aids (i.e.
athletic scholarships).”

Proposed athletic fee
The
third and most
controversial section deals with
the setting of the athletic fee and
the allocations of the fee.
The committee resolved “that
a mandatory $12.50 athletics fee
per semester be assessed by the
Student Association for a period
of four years and that this fee
shall not be used to increase the
present level of football for the
next four years but shall be used
for the development of
well-rounded intercollegiate,

programs.”
Voting is opened to all

Draft Resistance

Union needs

To the editor

I would like to take this opportunity to thank
the students of this University who supported the
Buffalo Draft Resistance Union in the recent
referendum. Our off-campus office is now open at
37 Ferry St. (one block off Main).
The office is open from 6-9 Monday and
Tuesday; 3-9 Wednesday through Friday; 11-3 on
Saturday. The phone number is 882-2109. All are
welcome, even those who voted against us.
Our office is currently understaffed, however,
and we therefore invite all interested persons to a

meeting at our office at 1 p.m. Sunday, March 9. We
need draft counselors (we will train), plus individuals
who are willing to engage in activities at induction
centers, high schools, etc.
One final word, and that is money. We
appreciate that the undergraduates just gave us $500,
however, this will not last many months. We do not
need much to keep us going. If you support draft
counseling, surely you can commit yourself by
contributing $.50 or $1 per month (faculty more) to
keep our doors open.

maybe 250.
There are many people already seated
You find a seat and look up at the podium. There
are five or six students sitting at a table with the
Ambassador. One of the students walks to the
lectern and you know that the show is about to
start. The student is laying the groundrules. He tells
us how long the ambassador will speak and that
there will be a question-and-answer period at the
end.
Now here’s the sneaky part. You arc informed
that you must write your questions on cards and
submit them to “collectors” who will in turn give
them to the panel of Fair Witnesses on the platform.
You are informed that these Wise Men will
“synthesize” and “collate” your questions so that
there will be no “duplication." You feel a vague

sense of discomfort when you realize that this tactic
can be anti thetical to what you had always thought
was an open campus. In other words, at the risk pf
appearing paranoid, you feel that submitting
questions to a panel before they reach the
Ambassador makes them especially vulnerable to
censorship. You decide to test your hypothesis.
When the “collector” comes around the card you
give him states:

Mr. Ambassador:
Will you kindly make a statement to the effect that
you will answer all questions that are submitted?

You sit back and wait
The Ambassador speaks for one hour and ten
minutes. It is now 8:10 p.m. You know that the
room is reserved until II p.m. There is plenty of
time.
The Ambassador answers five questions. It is
now 8:30 and the sign is given that the symposium is
over. Two hundred and fifty people, and the
Ambassador answers five questions.
Yours was not one of them.

Go back where you came

To the editor

Recently our University was invaded by various
outside groups (Yippies from New York and Hippies
from Berkeley). It appears that these people came to
“lead” us to our own “student revolution.” After
wrecking their own, they have come to show us how
to destroy ours.

Their presence at this University is unwarranted
and, indeed, unwanted, by a large part of our
student body. The outsiders are unnecessary to act
as catalysts in producing change at this institution.

and practices. Let me point out some of the more
recent changes that have occurred peacefully and
almost exclusively on this campus.
1) Remember the Scale Student evaluation of
and faculty. Many professors have
implemented the changes initiated by the Scale.
2) Creation of positions for undergrads on
curriculum planning boards. Faculties are responsive
to student requests. Anthropology is a very good
example.
3) Most recently, the elimination of
basic/distribution requirements. The student now

4) Expansion of undergraduate assistantships

5) A “wet” campus.
As for service in the community, the University
has been a leader in developing plans, and
implementing them, to aid underpriviledged people.
Those who have been here for any length of time
will have noticed an increase of, dare I say it, Blacks

few years that 1 have been here. Also, the University
has instituted programs for employing core-area

Federal narcotics agents arrested a
student at the University’s Ridge Lea campus
Thursday morning.
University officials were not notified of
the action until after the student had been
taken downtown.
Officials of US Customs, the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, and the US Post
Office and the Bureau of Narcotics and
Dangerous Drugs all participated in the
morning arrest, which was not announced
until late Thursday afternoon because of
“security reasons” according to a customs

official.

Viet Cong 6testing 9 Nixon
by The Christian Science Monitor

Though the
HONG KONG
Communists have sent a new wave
of rockets shrieking into South
Vietnam’s cities, it is to Paris that
they are looking for the real
impact.
Western experts have little
doubt that the latest Viet Cong
and North Vietnamese assaults are
intended to test the mettle of the
new Nixon administration and
wrest concessions from its
negotiating team at the Paris
peace conference.
The offensive against Saigon
and other cities and bases in
South Vietnam was accompanied
by all the fanfare indicating the
Communists were set to extract
major psychological and
propaganda gain from it.
Radio Hanoi and the North
Vietnamese news agency were
broadcasting details of the action
within hours of the first attacks.
Meanwhile the official Hanoi
newspaper Nhan Dan was on the
streets with a high-powered article
charging the United States with
“evading the basic questions” at
the Paris conference.
Signed “Commentator,” the
article hammered away with the
demand for unconditional

withdrawal of American troops
from South Vietnam. This, said
“Commentator” is the “Main
question” for the Paris
conference, and the conference
“will not make any progress so
long as the United States keeps
evading this question.”
All this is seen by experts as a
Communist attempt to force some
compromise from the Americans
at Paris. According to the best
informed sources, there has been
no real progress at the expanded
talks so far. Nor haveprivate talks
begun
the talks which the

logiam.

The North Vietnamese are
believed to be still assessing the
new Nixon administration.
Recently North Vietnam’s
eminence grise in Paris, Le Due
Tho, left the French capital to
report, after stopovers in Moscow
and Peking, to the North
Vietnamese leadership. Without
question, he must have presented
an initial evaluation of President
Nixon’s peace strategy.
The latest rocket and mortar
attacks on South Vietnamese
cities thus may be intended to test
President Nixon’s intent and his
commitment to South Vietnam.

This is a blatantly provocative
aspect to the attacks which the
Communists cannot have
overlooked. For one of the
conditions understood to be
implicit in President Johnson’s
decision to stop bombing North
Vietnam was that the Communists
for their part would not rocket
South Vietnamese cities.
Now the Communists will be
looking to See how President
Nixon reacts. Will he order his
negotiators at Paris to take a
tough line? Will he consider
military retaliation? How will he
balance each possible courses of
action against public opinion in
the United States and his own
undoubted desire to bring the
Vietnam war to an end?
When the Communists have
answered to their own satisfaction
such questions as these, they will
have a far better idea of the
tactics to use against President
Nixon.

Hanoi’s insistence that an
American troop withdraws! is the
“main question” at Paris is
significant. For the North
Vietnamese and Viet Cong must
know as well as anyone that a
Nixon decision on some kind of
initial withdrawal is very near, if it
has not already been taken.

The Committee of 31
The Committee of 31 was put
together at Thursday's rally. It
was formed “implement decisions
made by the whole group,
distribute leaflets, make
statements, suggestions and
concrete proposals.” In general, it
was meant to represent and
coordinate viewpoints brought
out at the rallies.
The committee found out that
representing the viewpoints of the
rallies was no easy’ chore. Friday
morning it presented a list of nine
demands to the administration.
Friday afternoon, one of these
concerned with
demands
“solidarity with the Black Student
Union”
was deleted at the
request of the Black Student
Union.
Wednesday night’s gathering in
the Fillmore Room reflected a
great deal of unity in attitude.
The next day’s rally brought forth
a much more diverse reaction. It
became the committee’s job to
synthesize the various positions
into some sort of workable
“platform” - capable of drawing
the wide support needed for
action.
But when the committee sat
down over the weekend to try to
take a second look at the other
eight demands, it virtually
dissolved itself, and became just a

The demands
The list of demands was
originally drawn up Wednesday
night when emotions were
running high, an almost giddy
feeling pervaded as people talked
of having “liberated a building."
Norton Hall was forced to remain
open all night Wednesday, due to
the vastness of the crowd that
gathered
and its 24-hour
schedule is still in effect.
Since then the demands have
taken on an increasig amount of
sophistication. ■ The
original
demands
which were answered
by the administration Friday
night
have since been revised
and enlarged upon. Many who
were involved with the originals
knew little of the work that had
been going on in various
University committees, both
student and faculty. But now they
have learned more, and some are
attempting to use the momentum
from the rallies to accelerate the
work that had been done before it
all started.

�The demands
I. We demand that students control 50% of the voting power and
membership on all departmental and University decision making
boflips, especially in matters concerning curriculum degree regulations
and the hiring and firing of faculty and staff. We support the idea of a
bicameral legislature in this University in which students also have veto
power over the faculty and vice versa.

2. The students express solidarity with the Black Student Union
on this campus and support their aims and goals. We believe in the
right of self-determination of black people and in their right to seek
fulfillment by being directly involved in all issues that are crucial to

6. We urge action on and express solidarity with graduate students
in the English, Sociology, and Philosophy Departments who are
demanding a legitimate role in the granting of tenure, wages, and other
relevant departmental issues.

3. We demand that Martin Sostre’s Afro-Asian Bookstore in Exile

be established at the State University of Buffalo in “symbolic
sanctuary” and be provided with means for permanent operation. We
also demand along with BUILD and other black community
organizations that the Buffalo Police Commissioner be removed from
office.

7. Resolved that the new campus at Amherst will not begin
construction without a fully-integrated work force satisfactory to the
minority groups and concerned organizations of the Buffalo
community. We demand that the construction projects include: 1. the
immediate establishment of a massive construction training program.
2. mechanism of access to jobs such as an open hiring hall. 3. a strong
affirmative action contracts enabling compliance for a fully-integrated
throughout the entire University construction project. If these
conditions are not fulfilled, the students will virtually make a human
cover across the new campus to prevent any construction efforts.

4. We demand an end to all contracting of defense research on this

5. The students on the SUNYAB campus stand in solidarity with
the Buffalo Nine and condemn the system that allows and perpetuates
this sort of repression. We demand that all charges against the

This bill also provides for a mechanism to

facilitate the employment of blacks such as
an open hiring hall.
To further assure progress in these
objectives. President Meyerson has
appointed a University-wide committee
which has already begun to formulate the
necessary steps to be taken.

8. The University is not a party to any
agreement with local, state, or federal
narcotics and intelligence agents. The
University does not cooperate in any way
with the placement or activities of
undercover agents on the campus. The
institution has no way to prohibit such
agents from the campus, nor does any
other body have any legal authority to bar
their presence.

9. The ROTC program exists on this
campus by virtue of an annually renewable
contract. Some months ago the local
Chapter of the AAUP challenged the right
of ROTC professors to be seated as voting
members in the Faculty Senate. The
Executive Committee of the Faculty
Senate referred this issue to the Faculty
Senate Committee on Faculty Tenure and
Privileges. That committee has met and
discussed the situation and the chairman
has drawn up a set of recommendations.
Those recommendations include (1) the
suggestion that future appointments be
made with qualified rank (visiting assistant
professor or adjunct-assistant professor)
which does not carry voting membership in
the University faculty nor in the Faculty
Senate; (2) the suggestion that the
Executive Committee refer the other
aspects of the ROTC presence on campus
to the Educational Policy and Planning
Committee.

The second part of the
recommendations of this committee covers
the question of accreditation for ROTC
courses and other aspects of the contract
between the University and the Air Force.
This part of the Committee's
recommendation will most likely be
referred to the Faculty Senate Committee
on Educational Planning and Policy.

�Panel discusses marijuana’s
biggest danger: It’s illegal
by Sue Gellins
Spectrum

Laws categorized
Mr. Lang divided the penal law
into three categories: common
law crimes, including burglary,
larceny, rape; crimes which are
“bad because they’re prohibited”
and crimes against “public morals,
order, health, and decency.”
These “status crimes” include
alcoholism, prostitution, gambling
and drugs. He advocated
“consistency and reasonableness
of approach” as to how society
should handle these problems. He
urged that we keep an “open
mind” concerning how society
should “regulate, control and deal
with human behavior.”

Staff Reporter

Featuring renowned drug
advocates and . opponents, this

weekend’s drug symposium
attracted capacity audiences
interested in learning about the
effects of drugs, research on this
topic and laws concerning its use.
A discussion on “Marijuana
and the Law” was held Friday
afternoon in the Haas Lounge.

The principal speakers included
Judge Joseph Mattina of the Erie
County Court; Irving Lang, legal
counsel for the New York State
Narcotics Addiction Control
Commission: Mr. Fitzgerald, a
representative from the Federal
Bureau of Narcotics and

Mr. Silverglate commented that

Marijuana stigma
Judge Mattina expressed
concern over what he termed the
“stigma of a marijuana bust.” He

cited as evidence three cases in
which people were arrested for
possession of “pot” and later the
charges against them were
dismissed. In these cases, he
explained, it is the person arrested
who “doesn’t give a damn about
pot”-who is branded with the
stigma for the rest of his life.
Emphasizing that “the Federal
Bureau of Narcotics and
Dangerous Drugs does not make
the laws” but only “enforces”
them, Mr. Fitzgerald was the
target of much of the audience’s
laughter. He said that Congress
declared marijuana to be a
dangerous drug because “there is
no way to determine its potency.”
Us active ingredient, THC, “can
and does cause psychotic reaction,
paranoia and fantasies.”
Mr. Fitzgerald termed
marijuana “a cotton-picking
plant” that even “insects refuse to
feed on.” Citing the Chief of

reported that marijuana poses a

In the all but forgotten 19SS suspense classic,
“Rear Window,” Alfred Hitchcock, with his
customary brutal irony, equates the moviegoer’s role
with that of the voyeur. James Stewart plays a news
correspondent who is temporarily immobilized in his
apartment with a broken leg. A large rear window in
this building provides an excellent view of the
interiors of several identically constructed
apartments across the way.
To relieve the tedium produced by long hours of
confinement, and at the same time to gratify his
almost patheologioal curiosity, he begins to peek in
on the inhabitants of these coffinlike dwellings with
the aid of binoculars. In the course of his daily
surveillence, he uncovers suggestive bits of visual
information which lead him to conclude first, that a
man has murdered his wife, and second, that he has
chopped her into manageable fragments and is
disposing of her piece by piece.
Ultimately it is revealed that Stewart’s fantastic
detective-novel conjectures are correct, but the
question of whether the voyeur or the murderer is
more guilty of the crime is left tantalizingly open.
Stewart, of course, is the direct extension of the
audience; we see everything through his eyes.
Hitchcock cunningly manipulates us so that we
vicariously aid Stewart in his reconstruction of the
crime. Near the end of the film 1 was surprised to
find myself participating in Stewart’s obsession,
hoping the wife would be dead so that all of his and
my efforts at deduction would be vindicated.

Accomplice audience

Stewart and the film’s audience, then, are in a
very real collaborators in the murder. We are
permitted to savor the bootleg delights of setting up
and actually executing a savage slaying (to the point
of deciding whether a garden or a hat box would be
the best place to conceal the head) without suffering
any of the consequences. It’s not until afterward
that we realize with what embarrassing enthusiasm
we embraced the taboo.
Hitchcock’s recognition of the “peeping Tom”
impulse lying behind so much of our moviegoing
experience is, I think, devastatingly accurate.
Engulfed in darkness, with nothing except the
incredible keyhole world of the screen in front of us,
we authorize celluloid heroes to act out private
fantasies for us, which are by turn romantic, illicit,
and grotesque. The films that are closest to us are
obviously those which most successfully implicate
us, but to implicate an audience a film has got to
take it by surprise. Half of the appeal of such
marvelously subversive pictures as “Bonnie and
Clyde” and “Rear Window” is that we don’t learn
that the director has been turning the screws on us
until it’s too late to do anything about it.

Real or unreal?
Unfortunately, there’s another side to this
“implication” coin which isn’t nearly as agreeable
Hollywood realism, the morality lecture disguised as

which attempts

to involve viewers by

preadhing at them- Aside from Paul Scofield’s
performance, what’s to be said in favor of a movie
like “A Man for All Seasons,” a pompous ethical

jawteaser a la Walt Disney, programmed for
“spiritual uplift?” The makers of this film even had
the foresight to include a “Rewards and
Punishment” epilog, in which we discover
to our
surprise and delight
that Henry VIII died
unhappily, felled in his prime by a particularly bad
attack of syphilis. I suppose the point is that the
course of divine justice is devious as well as

Undergraduate Medical Society will meet at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in
room 248, Norton Hall. Guest speaker Dr. Philip Gruman will speak on
“Osteopathic Medicine.” Arrangements for open house with the
medical school will also be announced. Members must sign up at this
meeting or leave their name in Box B, Norton if they wish to attend.

Political Science Department will hold a general meeting of all
undergraduates 3:30 p.m. today in room 10, 4238 Ridge Lea. Topics
of discussion will be the proposed Constitution of the Council of
Students in the Social Sciences, the department chairmanship and the
role of undergraduates in the department.

Spanish Club will meet at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow in room 335
Norton Hall. Tryouts will be held for the play to be presented in April.

Let’s take an example of more recent vintage,
“War and Peace,” perhaps the definitive case of a
film which is faithful to the novel down to the last
comma, and still misses the author completely.

Moral problem

I don’t go to the movies to be spoonfed moral
palbum, or to be treated like an idiot. A film which
avoids both of these pitfalls, in addition to being the
most daring and original American work I’ve seen in
Buffalo this year, is “Pretty Poison.” “Pretty
Poison” handles its audiences with the slick expertise
of an old whore; it’s cold and hard-bitten, but
admirably efficient.
Noel Black, the director, makes no attempt to
lure the’’viewer into the film, as Hitchcock does in
“Rear Window.” Just the opposite: he keeps him out
with a vengeance. One can almost hear Black saying:
“Look, I’ve got a story here about two psychotic
teenagers whom I don’t give a damn about, and that
you won’t give a damn about either . . . My film is
an ugly joke that I’ve tried to make as offensive as
possible, and I want to see what it does to you.”

Linguistics Club will hold an organizational meeting at S p.m.
today in room 242, Norton Hall. A tentative goal of the club is to
provide an informal organization through \»hich persons in all
disciplines may gather to present papers linguistically and from which
funds may be drawn for research anc community projects. The club
will discuss possibility of having a summer institute.
All-day Open Forum, sponsored by the Student Counseling
Center, will be held from 9 a.m. to 7 a.m. Wednesday in room 232,
Norton Hall. Matters relating to counseling, psychotherapy, mental
health and the Counseling Center itself will be discussed. Coffee and
donuts will be served. All faculty and staff are invited.

White Elephant Auction will be held at 8 p.m. tomorrow in room

neither on the glamourized nor the horrible aspects

Statement by James Peelle
concerning recommendations on
the future of athletics at the State
University of Buffalo:
“To comment on the
recommendations made by both
the
Student Athletic Review
Board and the University-Wide
Athletics Committee, that a single
director j&gt;e named to administer

“all aspects of athletic and
recreational programs on
campus,” I am in full agreement.
More than a year ago I joined with
a staff committee representing
intercollegiate athletics, men’s and
women’s physical education and
recreation in making that exact
recommendation to the University
administration.

“I have stated on a number of
occasions that 1 am not a
candidate for such a position and
that 1 am eager to free myself
from the administrative duties I
now have. I would hope that the
of the
recommendation
committees, plus the desires of
our staff, would lead to action
which could allow me to devote
my efforts to full time teaching in
the fall semester.
“All of us involved in these
programs have pledged our efforts
over these next few months to
carrying on the best possible
program within the limitations
imposed on us by space and
finances. With the cooperation of
the student body and the faculty
we will do so.”

academic promise and financial
need. “Financial aid is intended to
provide deserving students the
resources necessary to undertake
baccalaureate study ; their
academic promise and fiscal needs
must be the paramount
considerations for assistance.”
Regarding the setting of fees,
the committee acknowledged that
State funding has reached its
proscribed limit and that “to
provide a rounded intramural,

recreational and intercollegiate
program, additional funds are
necessary.” The committee
recommended the establishment
of a mandatory $25 per year fee,
a recommendation supported by
the President . The allocation of
the athletic fee will be controlled
by the student Polity.

"

This is a sort of self-formed credo I have attempted to follow in
my preceding articles. I have tried to take as an objective a stance as
possible, avoid patronage and explore several of the sub-issues involved
in the larger question of athletic fees.
But I must make a confession. Readers, I have deluded you
I
really am a bigot. (You can add that to my big, dumb animal
—

classification.)

No, I don’t hate Negroes, Jews or Irish-Catholics. My bigotry is
one of love, not hatred. It is a deep love that has made its presence felt
between each line 1 have written in the past three weeks. 1 love
athletics.

I guess I could write a long-winded essay on how athletics helped
give me direction in life, kept me off the streets, and away from the
the temptations in life (girls, mainly). How they provided me with an

emotional release, a means to interact with people and a mode of
individual expression, but I don’t particularly feel like playing that
corny role of den mother-psychologist.
1 love athletics simply because they’re me, I fehjoy the running, the
jumping, the throwing and the catching. No other reason
no pseudo
attempts at intellectual justification, no touching pleas for the
necessity of a mind-body equality. Entirely on a sensual level, they’re
me. In the three years I have attended this school, 1 have seen “me"
seriously threatened, and I am greatly distressed.
Athletics have gradually become like a kind of rocket that had the
and never really got off the ground.

moon as its target

Why? Is the question, and one that 1 can't readily answer.
A $12.50 fee will not get the rocket to the moon; it can only
supply enough fuel to keep it airborne for a short while. I am a bit
hazy on what the fee will do precisely; it seems to carry with it the
almost “given” ambiquity that referendum proposals invariably do.
But at least it seems to be headed in the right direction.

The $14 increase per student is an attempt to promote stability
(via a four-year allocation system) within an area that sorely needs it.
With known quantities of monies available, the future of minor
intercollegiate sports seems more assured. We won’t sec a team
organized one week and disbanded the next.
,

Intramurals and other recreational features stand an excellent
chance of nourishing under the provisions of the fee. On a priority
basis, this area is to be taken care of first and deservedly so.
Exploration into off-campus facilities and a published list on the
availability of Clark Gym is a long-awaited improvement.

Athletic Director James Peelle

agreed with the recommendation

that a single director be named to
administer “all aspects of athletic
and recreational programs on
campus.”
He further stated that he
would not be a candidate for the
position and that he is eager “to
free myself from the
administrative duties I now have”
in order to devote full time to
teaching.

The stipulation that football will not increase beyond its present
level, and the promised investigations into possible play in conferences
that prohibit grants-in-aid should ease tensions aroused by the growing
threat of a “big business” on campus.
1 will vote for the $12.50 fee at the referendum tenatively set for
Mar. 5 and 6.
I admit 1 started with a pre-conceived opinion before I wrote these
articles. But 1 have looked at the other side, evaluated many of its
arguments, and even accepted some of them. However, I am still

In my own defense, I can say that at least my bigotry is one of
degrees. I am still tolerant of people whose opinions differ from my
own. However, my penchant for intellectual honesty compels me to

ask

one

final

question:

How can we vote with a clear conscience to give $500 of student
monies to an organization that has no direct connection with the
university, and then vote “no” on a proposal to give money to an
organization that is so uniquely a part of the campus structure?

�Racism conference begins today

News Editor

The success of Teaneck resulted from
the interest and willingness of different
racial and social groups to organize and act
against prejudice, and not from any federal

The deeply-rooted disease of
racism in America will undergo intense student examination in a series
of workshops, lectures and films
throughout March. The conference is
sponsored by the Student
Association.
The diverse programs will be divided into two parts. Part I will extend from March 3 until March 13
and will focus on White Identity:
What it means to be white in a white
society that perpetuates racist institutions. Part II will continue from
that time until March 26 and will
deal with violence and the meaning
of change.
The co-chairmen of the Student
Association
Committee on
Institutionalized Racism are Shirley
Kleinschmidt and Alan Brownstein.
Elaborating on their aims for the
conference. Miss Kleinschmidt stressed:
“Hopefully, it will stimulate people to
become more aware of their own racism.”
Mr. Brownstein added: “I do not have
such grandiose hopes. Of course this would
be desirable, but 1 feel the only thing I
could really hope for is more education.”
The opening lecture of the racism
symposium will be: “Organizing in White
Communities,” featuring author Reginald
Damerell. In his hook,Triumph In a White

successful integration struggle in the
suburb of Teaneck, N.J.

Referring to

Mr. Damerell, Mr.
Brownstein insisted that “his experiences
in Teaneck are quite similar to events
occurring now in Buffalo. I think it is
important for students who are concerned
to hear what the man has to say. The
situation in Teaneck was met in a much
healthier way than the way the present
situation is being met in Buffalo.”
A workshop on'White Identity" will be
conducted by Rev. Herman “Woody” Cole,
assistant to director of the University
Office of Equal Opportunity, March 4. The
film, “La Notte” (The Night), will be
shown to stimulate discussion on the
identity crisis which middle class whites
experience due to their inability to
establish meaningful relationships.
Rev. Cole will direct his workshop to
relate this white identity crisis with its
counterpart, the black identity crisis. The
workshop will also consider a new slant on
the Kerner Commission Report on Civil
Disobediance.

His first book, The American Serfs: A

Report on Poverty in the Rural South,”

relates stories of human waste, federal half
loaves, state neglect and local oppression
meant to shock and anger every intelligent
American.

advisor to Martin Luther King Jr. and

pacifism combined with his persuasive fire

rights movement.

The issue of racism has been growing in
predominance ever since Dr. King was
assassinated and black uprisings ensued.
When Stokely Carmichael spoke of white
racism in 1966, he was ignored by some
and condemned by others. However when

At this racism symposium students will

The introduction of this bill

ROTC elimination no ‘cure-all’

Time to work

To the editor:

Friday we wrote a few introductory remarks aimed at
any ‘demands’ which might have arisen late Thursday or
Friday.

These remarks now stand as a criticism of those demands
which were presented to the administration Friday morning.
The demands are valueless only in the context of their
presentation; most of them could never be demands; all of
them were presented as attempts at justifying mass action.
It was because of this context that there was so much
soul-searching and shouting down Friday, providing the basis
for emergence of strong factions Saturday and for the
discussions today. It was because of the generally-accepted
character of the demands more than anything else which
diluted the ‘movement’ enthusiasm of last week.
The enthusiasm, however it might have dwindled in
intensity since Wednesday, has already given the University a
lot of needed discussion.
And the discussion has already precipitated at least one
set of important proposals
from the Faculty Senate
Student Affairs Committee which establishes deadlines for
the reevaluation of the Air Force ROTC and for the
institution of a genuine student/faculty bicameral University
government.
Emotional fervor, to effect significant change, must be
directed toward specific issues which have a powerful
argument based in experience, and which set meaningful
deadlines. Action, O.K.
but the form and content of the
actions must be based on considerable experience with the
specific situation

One of the most evident factors

in Friday’s rally was the extraordinary lack of knowledge
most students had of the complex realities of the
University’s internal political situation; whom to pressure?
when, and how?
We hope that those who do know what they are talking
about in regard to those questions will surface in this week’s
open meetings, which we think should continue

basis, if needed

If rallying points are needed, let them focus on the need
for us to get ourselves together. If specific issues and target
dates are needed, we suggest four:
April 1: The deadline suggested by the Student Affairs
Committee of the Faculty Senate to reevaluate Air Force
ROIC;

May; The probable date for the beginning of large-scale

contract work on the Amherst campus;
May 1: The deadline for the recommendations of the
proposed ad hoc committee on a bicameral University
government;

May 10: The suggested date for a University-wide
referendum on the bicameral issue.

Editorial Policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief

After reading your articles about ROTC last
week, it seems that SDS wishes to make a mockery
of the State University motto. If I remeber correctly,
it states the following:
“Let Each Become All He Is Capable of Being”
By abolishing credit for ROTC, or abolishing the
entire ROTC program, then certainly it would not be
within the province of each student to . . . Become
All He Is Capable of Being.”
Also, I would like to remind those individuals so
disgusted with ROTC, that ROTC is a voluntary
program, and a mutually beneficial one.
On the first point, anyone may join ROTC,
thereby gaining the ability to continue his education
at the graduate level. On the second point, each
student enrolled in Air Force ROTC agrees to serve
his country for a period of four to six years upon
completion of his education. I say, “mutually
beneficial” because, in this way, the government will
gain a better qualified individual to defend it, and,
on the other hand, the student has been able to
further his education.
Now, about course content. If these students
feel that the courses within the Department of
Aerospace Studies do not present a “two-sided”
picture, then it is up to these students to institute
courses which present the opposite point of view.
Just because two points of view may not, at the
moment, be available, it is not just or correct to
eliminate the onfe which is available. If that were the
case, we would eventually have no points of view
voiced on any topic, as people have always held
different ideas, attitudes, interests, and opinions.
Fortunately, however, our society does not operate
this way.
Therefore, the “cure-all” is not the elimination
of academic credit for ROTC, thereby depriving a
substantial number of students of this program.
Instead, for those who do not agree with ROTC, (he
answer lies in the institution of other courses, which
present different points of view. This is the only way
we can hope to safeguard academic freedom, the
individuals’ right to free choice, and, “Let Each
Become All He Is Capable of Being.”
Robert N. Hochberg

Who will be hurt the most by a student strike
the administration, the faculty, or the students
themselves? What could be accomplished if the
students did strike? Is there any other beneficial way
for the students to gain what they want besides
striking? What is the makeup of the full
administration body?
If tenure means so much to the Classics, English,
Sociology and Speech Departments, what is the
stand of the faculty in these various departments in
the matter? What is the percentage of students who
are willing to miss classes and time to take this
action?
Is it true that 300 people miss classes every day?
Who has definite proof that the administration is
turning over information to the law about those
students involved with drugs?
Don’t you, as an individual, want to know who
the enemy is before you shoot? How can you see the
whites of their eyes when you don’t know what their
bodies or faces look like? Don’t you think that when
trade unions strike they at least know that a
majority of their fellow workers are striking for the
national benefit of the whole union and each
individual involved?
are there so many people with

Why don’t the students solve the problems of
running the campus in a democratic way? What is
the job of the Student Coordinating Committees and
Executive Board which are elected by the student
body?
Why is it that some students have been smoking
drugs for years and only certain ones get busted?
Hegel’s theory on thesis, antithesis and synthesis
must be all wrong. All I see on campus is thesis and
antithesis. Where is the meeting of the synthesis of

all the mental clashes and clammering of ideas and

agrumentation? There is so much “anti-” on the
campus and in the world that an individual can
become anti-anti. When will the plane of confusion,
corruption and misunderstanding land? If the pilot

‘Government vs. Reformer’
To the editor:
The circus is over and the act which amused
many of us for the past week has reached a sad
conclusion. The U.S. Government once again finds
itself on the top after fulfilling its function of
crushing those who are moral, worried and willing to
do something to help their fellow man.
In the courtroom there was humor for those
who could see it; the jury could not. Puns, semantic
differences, and obvious deceit were often
responsible for the laughter which echoed from the
walls of the courtroom. The word JUSTICE, painted
on one of the walls seemed to be jolted quite
frequently. Contradictory testimony and changed
stories from the F.B.I. agents helped the spectators
make up their minds. Those on the jury seemed too
busy fixing their stockings to even notice the

discrepancies.

The demonstrators outside were under the strict

supervision of the police and federal agents. Students
were continually ordered to-, move from one place to
another and in some cases were pushed out into the
rain. One federal employee was heard saying to a

Tenure under study
At today’s open meeting of the
English Department, Marcus

Klein,

chairman

of

that

department, will recommend a
study of the existing tenure

procedure and ask for
recommendations from three
representative groups: the
undergraduate English majors,
graduate English students and the
faculty members of the English
Department.

Discussing the issue which has
aroused recent controversy on this
campus, Dr. Klein said that each
of these groups is “concerned
about the tenure procedure” and
that “each has been asked to
prepare recommendations.”
Mr. Klein also commented on
the recent vote of his department
to deny tenure to two faculty
members and said that it was
'official but not final.”
He explained that a ballot had
been taken and that the faculty
members involved Louise Duus
an d John Clarke
had been
informed of the ballot. However,
he said he would “solicit
information from a variety of
people and present it to the
department” at a later date for a
re-examination and revote.
Concerning recommendations
for a change in the procedure of
granting tenure, Dr. Klein said

Also provided by the statement
is the condition that the
probationary period should not
exceed seven years and that the
“precise terms and conditions of
every appointment should be
stated in writing and be in
possession of both institution and
teacher before the appointment is
consumated.”
The present tenure issue has

also illuminated the question of
how much “academic freedom” a
faculty member has in his
activities within the University.
In several of the cases being
debated presently, it was alleged
that tenure had been denied not
for academic reasons alone, but
also because of a faculty
member’s interdisciplinary work.
The A.A.U.P. statement
provides that during the
probationary period, which is, the
length of time a teacher has an
appointment at the University
before tenure is considered, “a
freedom that all other members of
the faculty have.”
Academic freedom, as defined
by the A.A.UT., entitles a teacher
to “full freedom in research and
publication of the results” and
“freedom in the classroom in
discussing his subject.”
It is also stated that limitations
of academic freedom should be
clearly stated in writing at the
time of the appointment.

“Without the $12.50 athletic

Student

replied to a question from the

The referendum calls for a
mandatory $12.50 athletic fee per
semester and a general reform of
the present intramural athletics
system. In addition, the
referendum is designed to

maintain the athletic fee at the
$12.50 level for the next four
years.

Having been changed from a
voluntary $12.50 to the present
mandatory $5.50 fee this past
semester, the issue has caused
controversy on campus for nearly

five months.
Despite

a

several individuals lamented the
fate of intercollegiate football and
questioned whether the $5.50 fee
should continue. The recent
resignation of football coach Doc
Urich has further inflamed the
issue.

‘Trivial program’
Addressing the large gathering

University College, commented
that the State University of

one-half of 1% of the entire
budget of the University.

Chief American

The chief U.S. delegate and Ky reviewed

Lodge confirmed that the latest flareup

Lodge called on Ky 14 hours after the
vice president’s return to Paris from Saigon
to resume his role here as chief coordinator

Speaking to newsmen after a 45-minute

“While the progress in these talks is not

Nigeria and
by The Christian Science Monitor

With the Nigerian civil war apparently
bogged down militarily, the main action
has shifted to another front, the diplomatic
one.

The prize being contested is the backing
of the United States Government.
The Biafrans are working hard to move
the United States into a more neutral
position. At the same time they are wooing
the Nixon administration either for
outright diplomatic recognition or, failing
that, at least for American support for the
concept of a Biafran right to

self-determination.

The Biafrans are putting on the pressure
this particular time because the
Administration has yet to indicate its
intentions regarding the Nigerian civil war.
Judging from recent comments
appearing in their press, the Nigerians are
concerned that this Biafran offensive may
be making headway.
The diplomatic offensive is especially
vexing to the Nigerians. It began just when
the oft-announced “final push” against
Biafra was expected to get under way.
There is little evidence, however, that
federal forces are making any significant
progress militarily.

Michigan. Mr. Diggs heads a congressional
committee on African affairs.
Each delegation has met with the
Nigerian head of state, Gen. Yakubu
Gowon, and with the Biafran counterpart,
Lt. Col. C. Odumegwu Ojukwu. The head
of each has made an effort to distinguish
between American concern for famine
victims and diplomatic backing.

Mr. Diggs’s visit, Nnamdi
a Biafra sympathizer, and
independent Nigeria’s first President,
suggested a peace plan

in which the United States
by Lagos
would play a major role. In a speech at
Oxford University, he urged the United
States “as a confirmed neutral” to call
United Nations Security Council attention
to the situation in Nigeria.
To some observers this appeared a

Such assurances are, of course, a

an air raid on a market town. The raid was
said to have claimed 300 lives and caused
500 casualties. “It was a horrible thing,”
Mr. Diggs said. “1 don’t see how anyone
can pass it off at Biafran propaganda. It
can’t be passed off as a mistake.”
The Nigerian response to the visits has
indicated a fear that American support is

United States.”
From the Nigerian standpoint it did not
help matters that Senator Goodell was
caught in an air raid during his visit to
Biafra. “I’m sure they were not aiming at
me,” Senator Goodell said, “but I saw two
of the bombs drop and they did not drop
very far away.” The bombing, in which a
woman was killed and 11 persons seriously
wounded, was reported as talcing place
while people were returning from church

ebbing away.
To reverse this impression Joseph Tarka,
Nigerian Commissioner for Transport,
announced on his return from a visit to
Washington that the United States would
continue to recognize one federal Nigeria.
More significantly, he stressed the need for
the federal government to improve its
external information. In comparison to
Biafra, Nigeria has presented its side of the
case very ineffectively.

policemen be dismissed from the

Frank A. Sedita. The police
officers allegedly beat a black
prisoner Feb. 15.
Earlier this week, Police Capt.

that the two policemen be
transferred from the Cold Spring

occurred.
Capt. Edwards, the first black

Mr. Overall had been charged

as several traffic counts.

stating that he “tackled the

Clark continued, Mr, Overall was
“banging his head” against the
bars of the station’s cellblock.
Mr. Overall received injuries
around the face, head and chest.
Capt. Edwards said that on the
basis of reports from police
personnel and from the suspect,
he does not believe the injuries
resulted
from Mr. Overall’s
“banging his head against a wall or
against bars.”
Mr. Edwards said he was
recommending a transfer and not
departmental charges against the
officers because “I don’t think the
allegations of police brutality can
be proved beyond a reasonable
doubt.”

“Should be fired”
The Rev. Fletcher Bryant, a
vice president of BUILD, insists
that the patrolmen “should be
fired, not transferred.” BUILD
had called for the resignation of
Police Commissioner Frank N.
Felicetta before this incident.

Mayor Sedita said that he
would not dismiss the officers
because “to ignore the captain’s
recommendations and to react to

The Common Council’s first
encounter with the issue of school

decentralization

was dominated

by Republican mayoral candidate
Alfreda W. Slominski.

The controversy centered
around a resolution by
Councilman-at-Large Delmar L.
Mitchell calling for ten separate
school districts in Buffalo as well
as a central board.
The Council eventually voted
12-3 to send the proposal to the
Board of Education for its
reaction. Earlier, a motion to
receive and file the resolution,
which would have in effect killed
it, was defeated by the same vote.

Common Council votes down
‘under 17’ curlew proposal
A proposed curfew to restrict
persons under 17 from public
places was defeated 11-4 in the
Common Council Tuesday. The
resolution was introduced by
University District Republican
William F. Lyman, who said that
he “wants to give them (police)
the right . ,-j to stop children
under 18 to ask them what

they’re doing.”
The proposal, which has been
brought up twice before by Mr.
Lyman, would forbid youths
under 17 from public places
between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. from
Oct. 1 to May 1 and from 11 p.m.
to 6 a.m. in the summer months.
Mr. Lyman said that “among
youths 16 through 18, crime has
risen 30% in the last year.”

Democratic Majority leader
Stanley M. Makowski answered
Mr. Lyman’s remarks by claiming
that “I don’t think anyone can
replace the parent and this is what
we are trying to do.”

In support of the resolution,

Republican Councilman William

said: “The only way to get to

“Emotional pitch”

She accused Mr. Mitchell of
basing his
case
for
decentralization on an ‘irrational
and very emotional pitch.”
Mr. Mitchell replied that “the
problem boils down to black
versus white.” The elections for

the Board of Education “would
be conducted on a racial banner,”
he contended.
“I realize what’s going on in
this community,” and he is
“trying to keep our racial
problems on an even keel,”
Councilman Mitchell said.
A prime reason for his
proposing decentralization was

�Syrian ambassador
discusses Mid East
“What the American public has
is a false image of the Arabs,
Western reactions have a Pavlovian
quality,” maintains George J.
Tomeh, permanent Syrian
Ambassador to the United

Nations.

Speaking in the Fillmore Room

Tuesday evening, he discussed the

Middle East situation and
reactions to it: “There is no

of objectivity. The
community has failed to
educate the public.”

pittance

academic

The Arab-Israeli war brought
forth a “more and more biased
view of the Arab point of view,”
he indicated. “There were
demilitarized zones between
Jordan, Egypt, Syria and Israel.
Israel completely occupied the

demilitarized zone.
Israelis attacked shepherds and
created incidents, he claimed. On

cultivated, he observed.
‘‘Israel has boycotted the
machinery of the U.N, Since
1951. Israel has taken the position
that the mixed armistice
commission has no authority over
the demilitarized zone. Four
resolutions condemned Israel for
aggression against Syria. On Apr.

9, 1968, the Israeli Air Force
attacked Damascus, using napalm
against civilian targets,” alleged
the ambassador.
Mr. Tomeh then turned his
attention to the refugee problem:
“Israel refused to let refugees
return to their land. The
fundamental problem is the Arabs
of Palestine who never renounced
their possession of their land Ihe
Zionists weren’t satisfied with the
partition resolution; 500,000
Arabs were driven out of
Palestine.”
A question period followed the
address, during which one
member of the audience asked:
“If all the U.N. resolutions were
adopted, would there be a Middle
East problem?” Mr. Tomeh
answered that Israel wants to
avoid a “just solution.”
Another raised the question:
“Was the closing of the Gulf of
Aqaba a provocation?” Amb.
Tomeh replied that Israel never
objected when the Gulf was
closed from 1948 to 1956 and
that it is used by only 4% of
Israeli shipping.
He condoned
terrorist
activities, saying: “I can only use
a quote from I.F. Stone who said:
The Arab guerillas are doing what
we did to them. Their motives are
as honorable as ours were against
the British and the Arabs.’”
When asked about Israel’s right
to exist, he replied: “Yes
but
Israel has the right to exist when
they recognize the resolutions of
the U.N.”

MC-S: Revolution Rock
by Jay Schreiber
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Clench that fist, tight. Raise it, man. Hold it straight up.
It’s your defiant youth, it’s your rebellion. Yeah, right
through that ceiling of restraint oh yeah.

Almost all the fists the MC-5
gaze down upon from the stage
are white. And each Caucasian
limb in the air is a desired reflex
to the mad but controlled energy

loud, searing
rock music with a violent
intensity that screams revolt and
freedom against the oppressors
a rhythmic ritual of liberation.
The MC-S arrive for their
concert in Clark Gym tonight
with a rare but not unique billing
Revolution Rock. San
Francisco groups have previously
meandered in and out of that
label. None were willing, however,
to put that increasing militancy
into their music and their live
performances. Only the MC-5 are
as fierce, and tough, and ready to
up the establishment to qualify
for present state political
relevance. So some people think.
Richard Goldstein, writing in
the Village Voice, said: “The
MC-5 are already known in pop
critic circles as an authentic
guerilla-rock band, which
encourages screwing, smoking and
the burning of American flags.”
And not all of it is done in tune
either. When they perform they
rap about the Yippie-Panther
alternative and lecture on getting
rid of the “jams.”
Ann Arbor commune
To Goldstein the music of the
MC-5 is coarse, unreformed and
simple. They sing with a joyous
wrath and pounding intensity
reminiscent of the Rolling Stones’

intact.

With the fringe benefits of
increasing prominence in the rock
world (nationwide concert tour
and a recording contract with
Elektra) there seems little danger
that the communal activities will
atrophy from lack of funds.

Played in Chicago
In good radical tradition, the
MC-5 didn’t erase their local tag
with a hard-driving 3:12 disc on
AM radio. They were the only
rock group (many were asked)
that was willing to play at the
Yippie version of the Democratic

convention.

They impressed a lot of the
pop music critics and even
Norman Mailer.
Writing of their concert in
Lincoln Park in Miami and Siege
of Chicago Mailer described it as:
"The sound screaming to a climax
of vibrations like one rocket
blasting out of itself. The force of
a vertigo in the
the noise
cauldrons of inner space, it was
the roar of the beast in all
nihilism, electric bass and drum
driving behind out of their own
non-stop to the end of the mind.”
Mailer called it the “sound of
destruction . . . the true song of
the younger generation.”
In a less poetic vein was the
MC-5’s performance in early
Fillmore East, but sort of got lost

interrupted by the Motherfuckers,
an East Village group intent on
making the Fillmore less
commercial and more subservient
to community interests.
Bill Graham, who runs
Fillmore East and West, was
chained in the face and two
members of the MC-5 were seized
backstage for being insufficient in
revolutionary conviction which is
an absurdly funny put on, unless
the capture was serious.

It is pure fantasy to suppose
that a symbiotic relationship can
be

created

between

rock and

revolutionary politics. Even if the
MC-5 can produce their claimed
effect, it is merely temporary
defined by the date, place and
time of the concert. It is similar to
a dramatic production
the
better the quality, the better the
likelihood it will induce a greater
-

catharsis in the audience.
However, a rock concert falls
short of theater because it cannot
focus on a single idea or object.
The words are inconsequential,
only vague but powerful emotions
can be communicated. These
feelings transcend the verbal
they cannot be disseminated.
-

Technology and the streets
Another dispelling factor is
that rock music cannot live up to
the rhetoric of the New Left, no
matter how strong the sympathies
of a particular band.
The idea now is that the
revolution must be taken to the
streets
action developing out of
spontaneous situations. Rock
music can't blend in with this
form of harrassment because it
-

bulges with the impersonal
technology revolutionaries are
trying to overthrow.
Country Joe and the Fish were
frustrated by this exact dilemma.
It was futile to think of big
amplifiers, mikes and elaborate
wiring systems playing a real role
in the street. A rock performance,
they saw, had. by necessity, to
remain a planned event. The Fish
were reduced to giving benefit

demonstrators and the like.
Of course the MC-5 could
supersede the usual concert
environment and come on like the
Fugs But then they wouldn’t be
musicians. Revolutionary rock can
exist as a raw emotion for about
2Vi hours. An attachment of any
greater significance is a
commercial gimmick.

Q; Is it true that next year’s final examinations will be held prior
to the Christmas vacation break?
A: No. For the academic year 1969-70, the first semester’s final
examinations are scheduled for Jan. 5, 1970, through Jan. 14, 1970.
Q; Can a female transfer student apply for a dormitory room?
A; Transfer students are accepted into the University with the
understanding that no on-campus housing facilities are available.
However, housing space does occasionally open up during the year and
if a transfer student wants housing, she can place her name on a
waiting list in the Housing Office. As spaces become available, the
waiting list is processed. The order of processing is done according to
need and the date the request was made.
Since the checkroom was originally created for the
convenience of students, why isn’t it open at the times when it is
needed most? Recently there was a mixer in the Fillmore Room and
no place to check coats.
A: Robert W. Henderson, Norton Hall business manager, stated:
“When a recognized student group requests an extension of Norton
Hall’s closing hours to facilitate a special program, the group may
choose to hire students for the coat check and candy counter stations
for the extra time. If the group decides against hiring coat room staff,
notification is usually given throughout the building to indicate the
closing of this service. If coats are left after this closing, the night
manager will unlock the room and exchange the coat for a regularly
numbered coat check tag.”

Q:

Q: The bus stop on the south side of Main St. across from

University Plaza is usually inundated with mud. Can this area be
cemented over, as was done at the bus stop on Main St. that is the base
of the path that leads to Crosby Hall?
A: James Sam, director of Physical Plant, stated: “As a result of
your query subject as above, an on-site inspection of the bus stop at
Kenmore Ave. and Main St. adjacent to the Baird Parking Lot
Extension, was made with a view toward installation of concrete pad.
Due to solid ground freeze and climatic conditions, work cannot be
accomplished until the spring thaw. Please be assured that this project
will be given top priority and will be completed as soon as climatic
conditions permit. As a matter of information, there is a like condition
on Bailey Ave. opposite Veterans Hospital which will also be surfaced,
but again, as weather permits.”

Q: I would like a student directory. Where can I obtain one now?

A: A student directory can be obtained in room 205, Norton Hall.
The cost to students, upon presentation of an I.D. card, is $.25; all
others must pay $1.00.
Q; Is there any place on campus that I can borrow more than

Q: What information is available in a student’s file and under what
unstances is it released?
A: As stated in a previous column, we canvassed various campus
offices for a review of their policy regarding student files. We continue
to relay our findings:
Office of Admissions and Records: Dr. A. Kaiser, director of the
Office of Admissions and Recrods, stated: “A student’s file is begun
by the Office of Admissions and Records when a student submits
formal application for admission to the Univeisity. The file typically
begins with the submission of the State Univeisity application forms
which consist of two or three parts depending upon whether or not the
student is applying direct from high school or as a transfer student.
These forms are the A-l form, student’s basic application; the A-2
form, which is the high school record form; and the A-5 which is the
transfer form. The file will also have a notation what decision has been
made on the application, that is, accept, reject, waiting list, etc.
“Subsequently, after a student is enrolled his file will contain
correspondence between this office and the student, test scores that
may have been received as a part of the evidence submitted with the
application for admission, letteis of recommendation (if any), a
supplementary report from the high school showing the student’s last
semester grades and other official documents which the student may
file during the course of his study. This would include such things as
an application for degree, a copy of the official degree evaluation
pointing out remaining requirements which is usually submitted to the
student during his junior year and other materials of this sort. In
addition, of course, the student’s official transcript is kept showing the
courses taken and grades earned.
“As to the release of information, the statement of official policy
published in the 1968-69 Student Handbook'represents our present
policy, and is in line with the policy statement on release of student

'Misguided immature minds'
by Linda Hanley

Two years ago tomorrow, 350
interested students and faculty members
assembled in Norton Hall for the first
meeting of LeMar
"a perfectly legal
information-action organization which
works toward the re-legalization of
Cannabis sativa (marijuana in the United
—

States)."

It was the first universty-affiliated
chapter of the organization in the country.
Quite understandably, the birth drew an
excited response.
"It's unfortunate that there are so many
of you misguided immature minds," said
Michael Amico, Head of the Buffalo
Narcotics Squad.
Newspapers published letters decrying
the evils of LeMar. "He wants to sell his
idea to all
A mental slave to
dope
His life ruined
He disqualified
himself from the future, but he doesn't
realize it anymore," read one signed,
"Worried".
Objective coverage was provided by the
Buffalo Evening News; "Amid a sea of
beards and long hair, cleanshaven Michael
R. Aldrich, emerged today as Buffalo's
'king of pot'," began the article.
...

...

...

Enthusiasm expressed
However, excitement of a different
nature was generated as well. The initial
showing of 350 was more than impressive,
considering the paranoia generally
associated with the drug issue. And Lemar

Michael Aldrich, a graduate
student in the English department, received
letters of support such as the one which
organizer

Page Eight

read: "Although my fears prevent me at
this time from actively helping, I want to
thank you for myself and all in my
position. Please keep it up."
At that initial meeting, Aldrich set
down the main purpose of the
organization. Far from being an
institutionalized pot party, LeMar's
function was to be educational. By
disseminating true information about the
nature and use of marijuana, the
organization hoped to combat public
two of the largest
ignorance and fear
roadblocks facing legalization since Harry
Anslinger, Commissioner of Narcotics
during the 1930's, terrified America with
horror stories about the Killer Weed.
To inform and educate
Since its inception, LeMar has aided
numerous magazines and newspapers in
presenting fair and truthful articles about
marijuana, as well as providing information
for lawyers involved in court cases dealing
with the drug.
The informative function began
immediately. At the first meeting, Mr.
Aldrich challenged Chief Amico who had
set up a "counter-meeting" across the hall
to a televised debate. At first he agreed,
but the meeting never materialized.
However, in the following months
various drug panels were held, and The
Spectrum printed a special interview with
Mr. Aldrich, Chief Amico and local Judge
Joseph Mattina all answering the same

Current activities of Buffalo's LeMar

was arrested along with his wife,
their son and daughter-in-law. The charges
against the elder Fiedlers were
"maintaining premises where narcotics
were used." The controversy surrounding
this case did much to bring to light many
of the legal irregularities LeMar was
working to change. The Fiedler case has
still not come to trial.
The organization's position had always
been that the laws concerning marijuana
were far too rigid and severe in their
penalties. LeMar argued that in order to be
reasonable, such laws should restrict
consumption, sale, and possession of
marijuana no more severely than present
laws regulate alcholic drinks.
"Legalization" never meant the abolition
just the transformation of
of all control
the present laws into something sane,
workable, and reasonable.
LeMar dissolved
When school started once more in the
fall of 1967, Mr. Aldrich dissolved LeMar
as an organization, and re-structured its
membership into a mailing list. He felt that
too many people were too paranoid to
join. By the new system, "membership" on
the mailing list merely signified an interest
in the drug issue
many professional
people joined and neither the admission
of its use, or advocation of its legalization.
Under the circumstances, Mr. Aldrich felt
this was the best way to perform the
educational function.

LeMar is involved in now is court decisions.

The SpECTU"*

�Border brutes have
some odd customs
by Linda Hanley

Though local customs officials insist they are not
looking for grass particularly, it cannot be denied that
attempting to transport marijuana across the border is a
bit trickier than carrying it across Delaware Ave.
It doesn't matter if you're hauling a half-ton for sale
or one joint for persona! amusement. Under the law it is
smuggling, and the penalties are severe.
Earlier this month, six college students five from
the State University of Buffalo
were arrested at
Rainbow Bridge when they tried to re-enter the United
States from Canada. They were charged with the
possession of dangerous drugs. "Possession" in this case
consisted of one marijuana cigarette found in the glove
compartment of their car.
All were charged with possession because the law
states that unless the drugs are found on one particular
person or persons, everyone is presumed to be the owner.
-

-

Just one seed

Another interesting

aspect of the law is that

even one

marijuana seed is enough to convict, although penalties
vary with the amount. One local student was busted at the
border when officials found marijuana "sprinklings" on
the floor of his car. They were originally looking at a
parcel of books.

However, a drug bust at the border carries the
a federal as well as a state charge
for not only is the individual in possession of a drug,
but he is "smuggling" it into the country as well.
Usually the federal government does not press charges
if the amount is small. Their main concern is not the
individual drug user, but the dealers and their agents
particularly at the Mexican border where most of the
drugs enter this country.

additional possibility of

Physical examination

Yet the law does exist; "policy" of customs officials
in particular cases is strictly arbitrary, and it is quite
possible for an individual who happens to be carrying a
small quantity of any drug to receive the same treatment
accorded a pusher.
The law gives the customs officials the right to search
anyone and their property in order to find contraband.
This search can entail anything from a detailed physical
examination of various parts of the anatomy which might
double as hiding places, to a total dismantling of the
automobile.
If narcotics are found in an automobile, the
government impounds it and the owner must wait until
after the entire trial proceedings are completed to buy it
back from the government.

Entirely arbitrary
Perhaps one of the most frightening aspects of getting

stopped at the border is the fact that action taken by
customs officials is entirely arbitrary. They are never
at the Canadian
really looking for specific contraband
border it could be anything from liquor to Oriental rugs
to narcotics.
"If the person in the car is polite and cooperative, the
customs agent is nice in return," said one Peace Bridge
officer. "But if you get a wise-ass kid coming across, the
customs agent is not going to be particularly nice to him
—

either."

This is an important point because it is entirely up to
the customs official himself whether he passes a car
through the primary inspection (name, birth place, etc.)
or sends it on to secondary inspection (search of the car
and its passengers). There are no set rules.

Based

on

looks

If a customs official does not like the way a particular
traveler is dressed, he can refuse him admittance to
Canada, or search the car. An American citizen returning
to this country cannot be refused admittance, but if the
customs official sees fit, he can order secondary
Inspection
as was the case of the six recently arrested
students.
A new informal ruling concerning cars entering
Canada is to check identification of all young adults as
we ll as their financial situation to make sure they have
enough money to sustain them while in Canada. The
Purpose is to weed out troublemakers, but it also makes
detection of contraband like marijuana in such cars

suspicious manner; refusal to answer questions at all or
having an item such as a coat or a blanket on the seat or
the floor. In addition, a larger group is more likely to be
sent to secondary inspection than a couple traveling alone.
Customs officials also look for beads of sweat on the
upper lip
"the first place a person perspires when under
tension" and other nervous behavior patterns during the
primary inspection.
In addition, virtually anything could be considered a

First let us dispose of the overimposing title of
this section. In trying to assemble information on
this subject, the first realization is that there is too
much information. It becomes immediately apparent
that to make any sense at all, it is necessary to
confine the discussion to a limited geographic area.
For various subjective reasons the area in discussion
will be limited to San Francisco and the rest of the
immediate Bay Area.
The information about this area which will be
used herein has been compounded from the various
newspapers of that region, discussions with natives,
recent returnees and passers-through, and the
occasional pieces of research that see the light of

broken them and found out that the only dangerous
thing in many cases is the law, and the punishment
that the state inflicts with little or no basis. This
discovery is not inclined to make one highly

tribe.
One frequently hears the reassuring statement

singly and summed
From these sources
comes the distinct impression that California, or at
least this section of it, has lost the battle with drugs.
It is extremely difficult to talk of prevalence in any
specific terms, or in terms of social or economic
strata. Drugs
at least in the presence of marijuana
are now a part of the way of life in this area for a
wide variety of classes and groups.

If not tobacco?
One of the most fascinating figures unearthed
while putting this survey together was that one
tobacco store in the heart of the San Francisco
financial district was selling more than $200 worth
of English cigarette papers a week, and no tobacco.
Furthermore, a recent survey in the San
Francisco school system showed a not insignificant
percentage of grade school children has been
exposed to a variety of drugs. An anecdotal report

Perhaps even more significant, however, is the

of people historically in the forefront of opposition.

attitudes.
The legal, teaching and medical professions have
upcoming younger members who will be less likely
to support the current rigid legal and medical morals.
A study out of the University of California at
Berkeley a few years ago closed with the observation
that it was impossible to convince teenage pot
smokers that there was anything wrong with it, since
they kept on smoking it and nothing mental or

physical ever went

The straight men
To drop into metaphysics, it may be the
presence of a large percent of the population that is
into some sort of illegal drug game that is causing the
current paranoia by a great many people who are
still straight. To a large extent, the adults of
California have lost the battle for the minds of the
young and they know it.
The adult society has constantly made

The group above them, which is completely
cognizant of the uses of alcohol, is running on a
bichemical standard. Most social gatherings in the
Bay Area are built around wine and grass, since both
are probably cheaper in California than anywhere
else in the country.

development of a very real and effective toleration.

The proposed student-wide referendum on athletics, which was
presented at a forum last Tuesday, is an ill-conceived document based
on a priori assumptions that shouldn't be made and is notable only for
the fact that it assures everyone that nothing really has changed. The
question of the status of intercollegiate athletics on this campus
remains essentially unanswered.
The key sections of the referendum are, of course, those which

The victory for the Serfers,
which put a huge damper on
Rochester’s NCAA post-season
tourney hopes, broke a
three-game winning streak which
the Yellowjackets had enjoyed
over the Bulls.

Soph Steve Waxman, who

of the fee.
The Student Athletic Review Board, the student committee that
devised the referendum, proposes that “a mandatory $12:50 athletics
fee per semester be assessed by the Student Association for a period of
four years.”
Two assumptions are automatically made as a result of the way
this provision is written. First, it has been assumed that the fees will be
made mandatory next semester and secondly, that they will continue
to be mandatory for a four-year period with no questions asked.
What is not mentioned is that under the Polity rules, if a person
can get 200 names on a petition, he can challenge any action of the
Polity by asking for a referendum on that question. Therefore, the
wording of this section is misleading because of its obligatory nature
which seems to bind the students to a four-year committment that in
no way can be assumed'.
On the question of the allocation of the fee, the committee
recommends that “this fee (the proposed $12.50) shall not be used to
increase the present level of football for the next four years, but shall
be used for the development of well-rounded intercollegiate,
intramural and recreation programs."
The first question that naturally follows is what is the present
level of the football program? The answer is that the football program
is a big-time operation which has at its disposal the use of 20 to 25
scholarships to entice talented athletes to spend their college years at
Buffalo.
If the referendum is passed, it means that the present level of
support will be given to football for the next four years (assuming that
no one challenges the program). This automatically makes it, in
essence, an eight-year guarantee because of the scholarships. This is the
result of the NCAA rules on grant-in-aids which makes the university
responsible to provide the scholarship money for the duration of the
athlete’s undergraduate study.
The question that was completely neglected by the referendum
writers is why football at the present level?
The committee has made an arbitrary assumption that the
students support the present football program which accounts for
two-thirds of the total intercollegiate athletic budget.
They also assume that the students don’t mind partially
subsidizing the scholarship program. It should be made'quite clear,
that part of the student’s athletic fees money goes toward paying
athletic scholarships. No one knows the exact percentage of fee money
that goes to scholarships because it is buried in a big pot consisting of
fee money, alumni contributions and gate receipts from which the
athletic department operates its programs.
On the matter of the development of a well-rounded program, the
committee did make a point that the intramural program has priority
over the intercollegiate program which is a step in the right direction.
This'is implicit in the statement that the surplus fee money will be
used for the betterment of the intramural program rather than plowed
into the intercollegiate fund.
A basic question, however, which forms the nucleus of this
referendum, remains unanswered by the referendum advocates. It is
namely, how can anyone make a prior committment of financing a
four-year program for intercollegiate athletics or even athletics in
general when it isn’t binding on the students. In effect, this is what the
referendum is doing and why it should be defeated.
The referendum, by its very construction provides no alternatives
to the present situation and seems to be more concerned with
balancing the present athletic budget than planning for the future.

The teams then traded buckets
until Rochester’s Paul Askew
regained the lead for his team at
74-73 on a free throw with 2:25
to play.

Key free throws
Buffalo’s 6 foot lefty guard,
Steve Nelson, then took over and
fired in a 20-foot jumper on
which he was fouled. The transfer
from Erie Tech, Buffalo’s leading
floor shooter percentwise at
55.5%, then converted his charity
toss, giving the Blue and White a
76-74 margin. The Bulls then
scored their last nine points at the
free throw line as Rochester was
forced to foul in an effort to gain
possession of the ball.

Rochester as they easily romped
past the Baby Yellowjackets by a
102-68 score. The victory upped
the Mutomen’s record to 13-7 and
lowered Rochester’s mark to 7-9.
The contest was never in doubt
as the Baby Bulls controlled the
opening tap and scored first. They
continued to pour it on,
outscoring Rochester by a 23-2
margin midway through the first
half and walked off the court at
the end ofthe first stanza with &lt;T

tally against Purple Eagles
by Sharyn Rogers
Spectrum Staff Reporter
With psych-signs such as
“Purple birds don’t float” and
“Bull Power” decorating Clark
Gym pool Tuesday, the State
University of Buffalo varsity
swimming Bulls decided that they
couldn’t very well afford to lose.
So they sank the Niagara
University Purple Eagles 53-51,
avenging a loss to them earlier this
season.

Final home meet
The Bulls started their final
home meet of the season by
winning the first relay. The
400-yard medley relay team of
Charles Hund, Courtney Larson,
Roger Pawlowski and Robert
Lindberg posted its best time of
the season, 4:07.2, after Lindberg
pulled ahead in the last length to
bring it in for the home team.
In the 50-yard freestyle, Ed
Sargent of Buffalo had a touchout
victory, with a time of :24.7. Two
events later, he came back with a
strong showing in the diving and
captured second place.
Charles Hund took another
first place in his specialty, the
200-yard backstroke, in 2:23.8.

Some demands on demands
“Be realistic demand the impossible.”
This statement, appearing on a button seen in Norton
Hall this week, seems at first glance delightfully YIPPIE!
absurd.
To uptight administrators it might be a reasonable
presentation of what they consider the main philosophy of
the “neo-facist left.”
To pragmatic politicos it might seem naive and suicidal
A more careful appraisal, however, suggests its wisdom
This slogan has an important meaning which may serve
thS valuable function of carefully determining what exactly
a “demand” should be, and when “demands” should be
made.
The slogan does not attempt to say that the only way to
take realistic political action is to make impossible demands.
What it does emphasize is that when demands are made, they
must be viewed as “impossible” by the power structure.
If demands are to be made, they must follow a general
breakdown in lines of communication, an acknowledgement
that only power, not reason, will be the arbiter in a given
dispute. Demands result in a confrontation of power, not
ideas.
It is in ideas, however, where the real source of support
for demands lies. There have been and always will be
instances when issues force people against their respective
walls. Issues, or ideas, become important enough to people
in certain instances, and people draw the line; they say
“Hell, No!” However, a Hell-No means absolute confidence;
after a Hell-No there can be no buts and no ifs. Putting
someone up against the wall requires one to be already up
against another wall.
If we think we are up against a wall on a given issue, then
that’s the time to make demands. But let’s be very sure,
individually and collectively, that we are prepared to go up
against the wall in pushing someone else up against the wall;
and let’s be very wary of going up against walls with little or
no support behind us.
The dangers which lie ahead for the so-called student
movement for radical change lie not only in a power
structure which becomes more secretive and more repressive;
the real dangers lie in the power of the media.
T
Spliced cameras and raucus radio news can turn any
movement a tragic theater of the absurd. It is important to
defy stereotypes, to deny the rhetoric, to mess up the labels
of the hostile press. It is important to plan action which
defies administrative contingency ‘battle plans.’ It is equally
important to be able to distinguish the real enemies from the
pseudo-enemies, to realize that former friends, or even
ourselves, may be our greatest enemies.
All that takes a lot of originality, a lot of research, and a
lot of patience. Emotion can serve as a catalyst for these
requisites, but it can not be their substitute.

A myth is a falsehood and, as always, the
moment is at hand to dispel one. This one deals with
the white University community. From his column
in this paper, Oliver Townes (Rap with Ollie) seems
to have climbed on a podium and become the
spokesman for black students on this campus. This is
a falsehood, and we believe that the white University
community should be made aware of this.
The black students speak as a unified group and
no one individual speaks for them without the
consent of all. We are not here to knock Mr. Townes,
but to strive for the truth.
Now you have it.

WASHINGTON
The recent investiture of
Ralph Nader as a member of the National Motor
Vehicle Safety Council is expected to perk up that
group’s deliberations. It means that the auto
industry’s unofficial hairshirt will now have a formal
podium from which to carry on his hectoring of
Detroit.
If the council does become more stimulated as a
result of Nader’s presence, perhaps it will enlarge its
field of inquiry to include psychological as well as
mechanical defects.
In the event, I would like to see it investigate a
strange motoring phenomenon known as the
“Volkswagen syndrome.”
Rarely a day goes by along the commuting trails
in this area that I don’t find myself being
intimidated by small foreign cars. More than once a
dark suspicion has crossed my mind that they are
out to get me.
At first I dismissed such thoughts as the product
of an overwrought imagination. But at a party the
other evening I discovered I was not alone in my
foreboding.
One of the lady guests happened to mention she
had been run off the road by a Volkswagen.
Someone else relates another experience. It soon
developed that everyone in the room had been
involved in such incidents. In each case, the
adversary was an undersized import.
Now let me make it clear I am in no way casting
aspersions on the cars themselves. For all I know,
they may be everything their dealers claim.
But evidently there is something about little
foreign-made vehicles that brings out latent
domineering tendencies in American motorists.
A man or woman may have driven for years in a
docile manner, cruising along in conformity with the
tfaffic pattern. Then he or she gets behind the wheel
of an import and suddenly something snaps.
-

The driver becomes a despot, bent on
conquering the road with arrogant veering maneuvers
that cause other motorists to quail and truckle.
1 have seen Volkswagens challenge and tyrannize
huge buses and moving vans as easily as they might
coerce a kiddy-car.
Anything Nader and his colleagues might do to
end this reign of terror would be greatly appreciated
by all downtrodden drivers of standard-sized autos.
With the council’s help, we may overcome

Aliotta clarifies situation

mocrai

Hubert H. Humphrey, for instance, gave him a
“very well,” Senate Democratic Leader Mike
Mansfield gave him an “excellent” and Speaker John
W. McCormack gave him a “satisfactory plus.”
Even some of the columnists who were
predicting that Nixon would flunk in the first
semester now concede he has a good chance of
making the honor roll.
You may or may not agree with these appraisals.
But you surely must have been surprised, as I was, to
find them coming from Democrats.
When grading Republican Presidents, Democrats
are inclined to count off for neatness or otherwise
indulge in arbitrary fault-finding.

Discrimination on the basis of color was the
major content of a letter in The Spectrum directed
at Aliotta’s Club. The action of regulating and
selecting its customers has been questioned.
New York State provides strict and rigid laws
that must be abided by to maintain a place of
business that sells liquor. Just as your own
institution has rules and regulations which are
dominated by the state, discrimination is also
regulated by the state and abided by.
If the proper-proof-of-age is presented, the
individual is and always has been welcome in our
establishment. Many students have been admitted to
Aliotta’s, no matter what religion or color. This has
always been our policy and will continue to be.
The author of the letter of complaint was
admitted to Aliotta’s and was not asked for
proof-of-age because he was known by our employee
(we reserve this courtesy for regular and frequent
customers). Two friends of the latter party entered
and made a mockery of the fact that we requested
proof-of-age. After some difficulty, he produced
adequate proof-of-age. The second one, a Negro (this
terra used only because he was so described in the
writer’s letter of complaint, and not by our
classification) stated he was old enough and did not
need to provide the requested proof-of-age.
When we finally refused entrance, he showed a
chewed-up, smugged and illegible draft card without
supporting proof. These characteristics, enhanced by
their rudeness and slovenly appearance, determined

our decision to refuse admittance.
Discrimination has never been a part of our
policy towards the public. Any student is welcome
to come, any time, and will discover our clientele is a

“boiling pot” of races, creeds and colors. The
musicians as well as our employees have been white
as well as black. If discrimination was practiced, it
was not by Aliotta’s but in the mind of the

complaintant.
Some day when people are denied service at a
public place, they won’t say it’s because of their
race, creed or color, but will look at themselves for
the true reason.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

Tenure dispute may cause strike
A possible strike of English graduate will be discussed tomorrow
as a means of protesting the denial
of tenure to two faculty members of that department.

This is only one of several cases in which students are attempting to contest the denial of tenure to
certain faculty members in three departments.

The decision to refuse tenure to John Clarke and Louise Duus, of the English department, Faculty of
Arts and Letters, was made known recently when tenured members of that department voted against granting them permanent appointments here.

Other student reaction to the issue of denial of tenure has taken
place in the Speech department. Petitions were distributed in classes and
made available in Norton Hall last week regarding Thomas Benson, whose
tenure has been denied by the personnel committee of the Faculty of
Social Sciences and Administration.
Dr. Benson commented that all action regarding his case was in the
hands of his students.
“I feel that my case has been severed from the University,” he said.
"If the University can be improved by the student actions on my behalf,
this will be good.”

In December the department voted in favor of granting tenure to Dr.

Benson. However, he said that the chairman of that department refused to
recommend tenure when the question reached the personnel committee of
the Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration.

Dr. Benson said that because of a “personal conflict,” the chairman
of the department would not speak in favor of granting him tenure. He
added that the chairman had indicated that he was to blame for the failure
of another member of the Speech department to receive tenure.

Explaining that the two faculty members had the same credentials.
Dr. Benson said he was told by the chairman that for this reason neither
°f them could be recommended.
The student petition circulated in support of Dr. Benson termed him

one of the most interesting and effective teachers on campus.”

Dr. Benson commented: “I think my case is being used as a warning
nt.” He said
•he vote regarding him may have been negative
interdisciplinary activities.

An offer has been made to Dr. Benson from the University of
California at Berkeley which he has not yet accepted He said he would
probably be on leave of absence next year.
Students from his classes have begun letter-writing campaigns to
protest the University’s denial of tenure.
Eric Larrabee, Provost of the Faculty of Arts and Letters, announced
Monday that the controversy over tenure in the Classics department has
been referred to a “third party” for consideration.
This came as a result of strong disagreement by both faculty and
students regarding Dr. Larrabee’s decision to deny tenure to Evelyn
Smithson and Louis Swift, assistant professors of Archeology and Late
Latin Studies, respectively. Both received recommendations from their
department and from the personnel committee of the Faculty of Arts and
Letters.
Anthony Davies, a graduate student and teaching assistant in the
Classics department voiced strong opposition to the denial of tenure to
these faculty members and termed it “immoral and illegal.”
He said that tenure had been denied by the Provost in an effort “to
change the classics department in a way that is going to ruin the study of
classics.” He said that the faculty members were being judged on matters
other than academic competence.
Referring to an earlier statement of Dr. Larabee’s which explained
that the growth of a department was taken into consideration when
tenure is being decided, Mr. Davies commented that if tenure is not judged
on the basis of academic work alone, this will become a threat to the
academic security of faculty members.
Dr. Larrabee announced that the “third party” which will decide the
Faculty Senate

�Student Bar Association proposals

Faculty considering Law
School grading reforms
Proposals to resolve the controversy over grading and
ranking reforms in the State University of Buffalo Law School
have been suggested by members of the student body. They
are currently being considered by the faculty.
Formulated by the Student Bar Association, two of the
proposals call for the initiation of a pass-fail system of grading
and the elimination of student ranking. More specific
proposals have been gathered by a committee organized by
mertibers of the freshman class.
'Eliminate inequities
Replacing the currently used
numerical grades determined by
the student’s final exam score
would be five descriptive
categories: pass, fail, high pass,
honor or distinction. This system
differs slightly from the
letter-grade system.
This procedure also would help
eliminate alleged inequities in the
present ranking system. A
cumulative average is now
compiled at the end of each
-

two faculty members would be
available to aid the students. This
committee, however, would not
have the power to expel any

student.
No action yet

In an effort to gain the broadest
insights into varied manners of
reform, the committee interviewed
faculty, students and Buffalo area
law firms to find their reaction to a
new „ystem. Letters were sent to

other schools in New York State to
obtain additional information.
Although no specific action has
been taken, Wade Newhouse,
associate dean of the Law School,
said.‘Some resolutions will be
passed insuring some sort of
reforms.”
Robert Fleming, head of the
ad-hoc grading committee,
commented: “There have been
many proposals placed before the
Faculty, but nothing definite can
be said until after the Faculty
meeting Mar. 3.
“Since there have been many
proposals, the opinion of the
Faculty is unclear as some
professors are in favor of 6ne
reform, while others seem to be in
favor of others. The freshman class
proposals have been the most
specific, but theirs are not
necessarily the reforms that will be
instituted.”

semester and the student is ranked
numerically.

Persons with averages differing
by only a grade point may be
separated by 12 places in the
ranking scale
the individual with
a 77 average may rank 12th while
another with a 76.5 average may

rank2Ath.

In addition to the use of the
descriptive grade system, the
ranking reform proposes that
students be ranked on a scale
divided into quarters. Only those
students in the top 10% of the class
will be ranked numerically.
The committee also has
proposed that the time limit set by
the school for final exams be
abolished.
In addition, it was proposed
that students be allowed to vote on
the hiring of faculty members and
on the question of tenure.
A committee to review the cases
of those students on probation was
recommended. Although it would
be largely a committee of students.

RA positions open
Applications for resident advisor positions are
available now in the Housing Office, basement of
Goodyear Hall.
Men and women students who will be juniors,
seniors or graduate students by September 1969 are
eligible. No specific average is necessary although the
candidate's past record will be considered along with
references and a personal interview.
Compensation for resident advisors is based on
past experience and ranges from full room-half board
to full room and board.
Applications must be returned to the Housing
Office by Mar. 7. Appointments will be announced
shortly after spring vacation.

HAVE A PROBLEM
RED TAPE GOT YOU DOWN?

More blackmail by Smith
by The Guardian Weekly
Mr. Smith’s new Constitution
for Rhodesia will, in his own
words, “entrench government in
the hands of civilized Rhodesians
for all time.” “Civilized,” needless
to add, is the usual longhand for
“white.” If the Constitution goes
through it will segregate voters for
the first time on an explicitly
racial basis. This new move was
predictable enough; for years now
the momentum of white politics
in Rhodesia has always been in
the Right. So the premulgation of
an apartheid Constitution should
cause no surprise.

No doubt, however, it will be
used by Mr. Smith’s friends in
Britain as a tactical ploy against
the government to urge Mr.
Wilson to make further
concessions to the Rhodesia Front
as a way of “helping” them to
come to a settlement. Such
pleadings would be specious.
Every shift to the Right in
Rhodesia could have been used in
this way, and many have been,
There were the multiple hangings
of Africans last spring, the
extension of the state of
emergency for annual instead of
three-monthly periods, the recent

trial of Mr. Ndabaningi Sithole,
the African Nationalist leader (if
that was, indeed, framed as most
black Rhodesians believe). But
what these developments
emphasize is that any negotiated
independence for Rhodesia will
have to have cast-iron guarantees
against racialist amendments by
the white minority, since the
momentum towards permanent
white rule is so strong.
The British Government ought
to have withdrawn their proposals
long ago. If it hopes that the
tighter sanctions imposed last May
are doing anything more than
keeping the situation in stalemate,
the Security Council’s latest
moves are not encouraging. Their,
two attempts at persuading the
Japanese Government to be tough
with Dutch ships, suspect of
carrying Rhodesian chrome, have
failed. So long as forged bills of
lading are issued for cargoes
leaving ports in Mozambique and
South Africa, there is no way in
law of enforcing the present U.N.
resolutions. Political pressure on
the sanctions-breaking countries is
hardly more hopeful, especially
when Britain makes her own
intentions suspect by continuing

to talk with Mr. Smith, His new
Constitution is further evidence
that talks with him lead only to

concessions from Britain's side,
not his.
Mr. Sithole is appealing against
his conviction for conspiracy to

murder. Hitherto the Rhodesian
courts have shown themselves
judicially fair, even though
politically they have bent towards
the Smith regime. One must hope
that the politically charged
atmosphere of the country has
not begun to influence the legal

process. Defense counsel made the
valid point last wee,k that Mr.
Sithole’s long years of detention
without trial must have induced in
him a sense of desperation. It
must have indeed, though without
in any way creating a supposition
of guilt. One of the unknowns
about Rhodesia is the state of
mind of many intelligent men
locked away without conviction
for any offense, and the effect
their state of mind will have on
the African people as a whole
when white supremacy begins to
crack. Locking up political
opponents has never solved a
problem, let alone led to a stable
and just society.

�Busline bard: Reali ’s not a meatball’
4

by Linda M. Betts
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Little man
A1 Ricciuti is a rather small man
with glasses and a very unusual
voice. During my interview 1
sometimes found that his voice had
the same tonal quality of the bells
he plays.

Reality's
not a meatball

Reality’s
not a grind

Reality is

whatreality is
and

that’s
what

Reality is.
Read to the students on the
Allenhurst bus, “Existential
Statement” by A1 Ricciuti reflects
a general philosophy of what he
calls the “great mystery”
life is
exactly what you make it.
Known as the Busline Bard. A1
Ricciuti has been reciting poetry
and playing bells collected from all
over the world, not only to
entertain people, but on a heavier
note, to bring his philosophy to the
world.

However, this philosophy is
usually of a pessimistic attitude. He
feels that “everything is doomed”
and that “it is insane to try to
achieve: I don't think it’s too
important.”

Success is not important. Quite
a statement. I was especially
surprised when Mr. Ricciuti told
me that he graduated from the
State University of Buffalo in 1931
with a degree in Philosophy (and
for those who doubt, I did check
with Alumni Records and there
was an Alfred Ricciuti who
graduated in 1931). And yet,
success is not important. Unreal.

He is a little man with a life that
is simply packed with stories to tell
from reciting poetry and playing
bells for college students, to the
rebuilding of his house, to the book
he published for a man who is a
leading school official in Buffalo.
The book was entitled Monkey in a
cage; and we spoke for hours.
Haiku and Tanka are the poetic
forms that Mr. Ricciuti uses the
most. The Haiku is a seventeen
syllable poem, whereas the Tanka
form contains thirty-one syllables.
In one Haiku poem he captures the
Calypso beat in order to put a
Jamician girl at ease because she
could not understand English very
well. His “Calypso Haiku” is as
follows:

Ricciuti wrote “Tanka
Pastorale” for two Negro women
who were fighting on the bus he
was driving. In this poem he tried
to capture the sound of cow bells:

However, Ricciuti also sees a
doomed world in his poem called
“Takla Makan.” This poem deals
with Lop Nor, a place where
atomic devices are tested. The
mood is one of despair:

Material Command here tomorrow

Arms agency to recruit
The U.S. Army Material Command, intimately involved
with weapons and munitions development and production,
will recruit on campus Feb. 27.
It is considered a civilian
agency by the University
Placement Office because it will
interview only civilians
in the
fields of engineering, natural
sciences and mathematics.
This past March, the AMC
raised the eyebrows of the
University community when it
conducted secret interviews the
day before they had been
officially scheduled.
Demonstrations against the
Army agency had reportedly been
planned, but never took place.
A national Science Foundation
report of January 1966 describes
the AMC as follows;
-

UNIVERSITY and

The
Command was
“established in 1962 to
consolidate and coordinate the
material development and logistics
functions of the Army. It was
created from components of six

�First place hockeymen down
semi-pros Granville, Lockport
The State University of Buffalo ieers ventured beyond
the realm of collegiate hockey this past weekend by
defeating the Lockport Heinrichs
and the Granville
Motors 8-6. Both were Metro League semi-pro opponents.
They also registered a 1-0
forfeit victory over St. John
Fisher College, as the Cardinals
failed to appear for their

scheduled contest.

The victories, lengthened the
winning streak to twelve
games, and established their first
place record at 18-2.
The Bulls quickly made it
apparent to the local Lockport
fans, Saturday, that they were to
be in for a long evening. Tom
Caruso took advantage of a melee
in front of the Heinrich cage and
opened the scoring at 11:37 of
the opening period.
Buffalo continued to dominate
the period, although they failed to
score again. Lockport’s goalie had
to make an incredible 33 saves in
the period.
Although Bull pressure

exploded for five goals in a nine
minute span. Brian Boyer got his
first goal of the season at 11:22,
and was followed twice by Jim

Mckowne, Jim Miller and Bob
Albano. This, made the score 7-2,
well beyond the grasp of
Lockport.

Jim Merrit achieved the “hat
trick” for the Heinrichs at 3:52 of
the final stanza, followed by
teammate Larry Gies’ score.
Frank Lewis rounded out the
scoring for Buffalo, as teammate
Jim Miller stickhandled past three
defenders and provided him with
a rebound.
Overall, it was a fine effort for
the Blue and White, as they
displayed a fine exhibition of
skating, as well as a sound
demonstration of position
hockey.

Bulls face Granville
Against a stronger Granville
sextet, the Bulls again
demonstrated their talents,
controlling the game in the fist
period.

Tom Caruso opened the
scoring early for the Bulls, but the
Motors quickly tied it as Larsen
tallied the first of his three goals
for the evening.

Swimmers lose
to Bona varsity
State University of Buffalo varsity swimmers, in spite of
two wins in the relay events, were overcome by the St.

Bonaventure varsity, 63-41 this past Saturday in Clark Gym
pool. The Buffalo freshmen ended their season with a
well-earned 58-45 victory over the Bona frosh.
The

varsity Bulls’ 400-yard
relay team
Charles
Hund, Courtney Larson, Roger
Pawlowski and Tom Ross
was
awarded first place when St.
Bonaventure was disqualified
because of an illegal start.
Hund later brought in the only
first place for the Bulls in the
individual events. He won the

200-yard breaststroke, the latter
in 2:30.9. He took a close second
in the 200-yard individual medley
to St. Bonaventure’s Steve Saluga,
who tied the pool record of

best time of the season.
Capt, Bob Lindberg of Buffalo
led most of the way in both the
50 and 100-yard freestyles, but
took second place by a mere
touch in both events. The Blue
and White also captured second
places with John Sobieraj,
Pawlowski and Ed Sargent.
Buffalo finished the meet with

Stormy weather
by Richard Baumgarten

Bundy put

the Bulls ahead by slamming
home a rebound at 6:41 of the
period, but the Motors again
evened the score as Braf scored a
minute later. Jim Mckowne’s shot
at 14:43 of the period caromed
off a Granville defender and into
the net, giving the Bulls a
short-lived 3-2 edge as the period
ended.
Within the opening three
minutes of the intermediate
period, Granville took a 4-3 lead
as Larsen and Braf again tallied
for the Motors.
However, the Bulls duplicated
the feat as Bob Goody rifled a 50
foot slapshot into the Motor net
at 9:07 and Tom Caruso took a
pass from Brian Boyer two
minutes later and flicked the puck
over
the prone Granville
goalkeeper.

Bill Newman then made the

score 6-4 by putting in a rebound.

At the third annual Buffalo football banquet in December, A.
Westly Rowland, vice president for University relations, spoke about the
future of the State University of Buffalo’s athletic program.
According to Dr. Rowland, four factors would determine the
success or failure of sports on the Buffalo Campus:
-additional support from the state budget
-

more income from sports events

home crowds must be

increased
increased alumni support
return of student fees to $12.50 a semester from the present $5.50

assessment
“We must have the support of the student body and the alumni. We
need to fill Rotary Field for football and Memorial Auditorium for

basketball," added Dr. Rowland.
That was two months ago.
Since December, the Buffalo Athletic department has seen nothing
but stormy weather. A shortage of money has cast an ominous shadow
over the future of intercollegiate sports at Buffalo. And amidst all the
uncertainty surrounding the athletic future here, Head Football coach
Doc Urich resigned

Knights’ big front line proves
too tough for Basketball Bulls
Buffalo’s varsity basketball
Bulls fell to streaking Rutgers,
86-78, Friday night in the Rutgers
campus fieldhouse. A crowd of
3540 watched the Knights win
their tenth straight game, and
fifteenth in 18 games this season.
The setback lowered the Bulls’
mark to 10-9.
The Bulls, operating at a
decided height disadvantage,
combined the hot shooting of their
senior forwards, Ed Eberlc and Bob
Nowak, to hold a 36-35 halftime
lead. The first half was a see-saw
affair, with the lead changing hands
nine times and being tied six times.

Rutgers frontline dominates

Rutgers’ big frontline of 6 foot
7 inch Doug Brit telle, 6 foot 7 inch
Bob Greacen and 6 foot 2 inch

Dick Steward, began to wear down
the smaller Bulls’ front-liners in the
second half.
The Scarlet Knights raced to a
61-49 margin midway through the
half and withstood a determined
comeback by the Serfers, who were
playing their second game in two
nights, and their third in four
nights.

Balanced scoring

Buffalo had four players scoring
in double figures, led by Bob
Nowak with 13 markers. Ed Eberlc
and 6 foot 4 inch soph Steve
Waxman had 12 apiece, while soph
guard Roger Kremblas had 10
points. Rutgers’ front-line of
Stewart, Brittelle and Greacen
produced all but 14 of their points.

Buffalo once again shot well
enough to win the contest, hitting
33 of 66 field goal attempts, but
lost the game at the freethrow line,
where Rutgers converted 20 of 27
charity tosses. The Bulls were
awarded 14 freethrows and made
goodi on 12 of them. The taller
Knights also prevailed on the
boards, grabbing 42 rebounds to
Buffalo’s 34.
Buffalo’s basketball baby Bulls
also met defeat, losing to the host
Canisius frosh, 90-80, Saturday
night in Memorial Auditorium. The
Mutomen now have a 12-7 record.
The victory for the baby Griffs
enabled them to avenge the 71-70

defeat the Buffalo yearlings hung
on them earlier in the Season.
The Canisius frosh led
throughout the first half and held a
five point advantage at halftime,
42-37, thanks to a torrid shooting
effort which saw the baby Griffs
hit 17 of 28 field goals in that
stanza.
The Blue and White pulled to
within three points of the baby
Griffs, at 48-45, before Canisius,
displaying some fine second efforts
off the offensive boards, raced to
an insurmountable 78-60
advantage.

Scoring burst too late
, Buffalo put, on a scoring burst
neat* the end of the contest, but it
proved to be too little and too late,
as Canisius walked off the court
with a 90-80 victory.
The baby Bulls’ hig -scoring
speedster, 5 foot 9 inch guard Ron
Gilliam, put on another fine
performance for the Mutomen,
scoring 34 points on 12 of 30 field
goals and 10 of 13 charity tosses.
The little man was also the
yearlings’ leading rebounder,
snatching 11 retrieves.

Sir, a newspaper should separate its news from
its editorial pages. Your lead article on the AFROTC
program on this campus was written from a biased
viewpoint, and the cartoon and caption
accompanying it were purely editorial. I wish to
challenge that article;
Dr. Feldman has made some unfounded
statements. Would he, as a psychology professor, like
to have his credentials reviewed by a committee
consisting of, for example, an engineer. a historian,
and a chemist? No, for what do they know about
teaching psychology? Not very much! May 1 ask him
what he knows about preparing young men to be Air
Force officers? Again, I would assume, not very
much! Then how can he demand to judge the
credentials of those officers whose job is to leach
military science and management?
I have heard that one professor told an officer
that he should have no say in the affairs of this
University because the army sent him here. Can
so brilliant, and rational, that they can
professors
not tell the difference between army “green," and
air force “blue” - intelligently decide whether the
AFROTC detachment officers should have a voice in
campus affairs’^

Your article emphasized the disparity between
those ROTC graduates who got deferments
more
to go to
properly called educational delays
graduate school, and the non-ROTC graduate who
has to face the draft. Delay is the word which should
be emphasized, for those second lieutenants who go
to graduate school are not dodging the draft, they
are only delaying their entry on to active duty. Upon
completion of their graduate degrees, they still are
obligated to serve four years or more. The draftee is
only obligated to serve two years. This you call a
dangerous double standard. Yes, it is a double
standard, tor we are willing to pay for our education
with four years service; the average graduate student
only wants to avoid serving at all, and make his
million.

Society often in your article. May I ask: What arc

their biases, are they too dictated to by forces alien
to the University environment, what is their kind of
“democratic” society? To the last question. I’d like
to pose an answer: “A society in which all who think
as we do will be equals; all who oppose us will be
shot!”
What are my biases? First, I am a cadet, and I
am preparing for a possible career in the United
States Air Force. My democracy is the ideal,
Jeffersonian democracy, where all men will be
equals, and where SDS will be permitted to exist,
because without dissent, there is no democracy. We
are currently involved in a war we don’t understand.
We can’t understand because our government
distorts half the facts, and those opposing it, the
other half.
What one can not understand, one destroys. It
takes a military force to wage a “shooting war,” and
hence the feeling is: destroy the military, and we will
end war. 1 said “shooting wars,” for there are many
political, psychological, economic, and
other kinds
others. Only when the politician, and diplomat fail,
docs the military have to step in. No one hates war
more than those who may be called upon to die, or
to order others to their deaths. Military men are not
the warmongers; the jealousies, hatred and frailties
of mankind are. Can we destroy mankind? That will
prevent wars, but will the barren earth enjoy its
peace?

Not too long ago, the world slept dreaming of
eternal peace while the clouds of war began to build.
Then, like a clap of thunder, war struck, and had
Japan followed her attack on Pearl Harbor with
invasion, we could not have stopped her. Our oceans
protected us, and we armed; we had a visible enemy,
there was no dissent. We can no longer rest safely
behind our ocean barriers, for they are as puddles to
nuclear-tipped 1CBM. Should an open aggressor
strike, we will

not have time to arm.

Go ahead! Kill the Air Force’s source of
liberally educated officers. Disband the military! . .

Calls anti-ROTC logic unsound
To the editor
Your recent editorial “ROTC Must Go” and
article “Campus ROTC Draws Fire” are clear cases
of misreporting and I wish to correct some of the
erroneous assumptions underlying these articles.
First, the instructors of aerospace studies at the
State University of Buffalo were all initially
nominated by the Air Force and then all
subsequently received the approval of the University
administration, all prior to their ever teaching on this
campus. In addition, let me point out that every
instructor on campus has an office for which he pays
no rent, an office which he uses for his profession.
Since AFROTC instructors are also teachers, they
too rightfully deserve an office.
It is true that AFROTC graduates can, if
approved in advanced by the Air Force, pursue
graduate study. What you overlook, however, is that
these people must serve four years upon completion
of their graduate studies. In addition, the
educational delay for graduate study is not
automatic. It is based upon the needs of the armed

Although reform movements may be “in,” we
do not need reform for the mere sake of reform. To

the unsoundness of total removal of the ROTC

If we give credit to courses which teach history

Rights (and wrongs) of tenure

Students destructive, too

Recent denials of tenure raise issues which test the real
sincerity and depth of the ‘academic reform’ movement
here.
The two factors which stand out in the current denials
involve faculty members who have displayed a high degree of
acknowledged competence in l)professional areas which do
not fit into the rigid disciplinary framework of the
department, or 2)teaching.
In one case, the decisions of both a departmental and
Faculty committee are overridden by the administration, in
an apparent effort to redirect from above the academics of
the department.
In another case, the chairman of a department overrides

enough.

These are but three examples of a recurring tragedy
plaguing higher education; where teaching is somehow
‘un-productive.’
Tenure, as has been noted by one administratior, is a
privilege, not a right. It is granted to faculty who have
demonstrated a high degree of competence to the academic
community. Competence in what? And who decides?
No doubt a series of proposals will be presented in the
coming weeks designed to resolve these qualitative and
procedural inconsistencies. All of us should remind ourselves
that, while tenure may itself not be a right, certain rights are
involved which must be protected in tenure proceedings.
Primary is the need to recognize that education must be
student-oriented, that the old ‘publish or perish’ maxim
must be discarded.
Further, a complex system of committee review of
tenure decisions must not serve as a convenient mechanism
to centralize, rather than de-centralize authority.
Questions of tenure must recognize the central
importance of teacher evaluation, a job which must be
undertaken by students as well as faculty.
Moreover, in looking for such changes in the future, we
must begin with the present; challenges to current tenure
decisions must not be dismissed on procedural grounds, but
must carefully be re-examined with an eye not only to the
due-process rights of the faculty involved, but to the rights
of their students, whose questioning indicates a positive
concern for the quality of University teaching
a concern
all of us should begin to muster.

other Americans, have tended to view Canada as an
unofficial extention of the United Stales. Canadians,
to my mind, were simply Americans who had great
difficulty in pronouncing “out.”
The conference at Michigan Stale University
opened my eyes to a very proud and sensitive people
who do not suffer from what Senator J. William
Fulbright calls the “arrogance of power.” Canadians
are not shackled by notions of global mission and
destiny. They are not overly concerned with
tightening an economic stranglehold upon the rest of
the world. The Canadians who attended the
conference seemed totally content with developing
their own rich land. Their views of the world abroad
were unclouded by visions of international
supremacy.
Several Canadian delegates asked of my opinions
on U.S. recognition of the Peoples' Republic of
China. I responded that I was personally in favor of
such a step, but that the American government was
still greatly opposed to such a move. The Canadians
replied that their government was about to make
serious overtures to Peking. They fell that these
efforts were opposed by tremendous pressure from

Sure, the “professors” are selected by an outside
agency. Can you suggest a better place to get qualified

The reason that these students can retain their
student deferments is because these men have already
agreed .o go into active and reserve duty for a
prescribed number of years after their schooling.
As for being bound by law to serve a tour of

reasonable that they would want to reap the fruits of

their investment.
ROTC, if nothing else, teaches a respect for
authority which is greatly lacking in some groups
whose offices are rent-free due to allocation of student
funds.

ROTC: ‘We’re human too’
To the editor.

I see that it’s that time of year again for ROTC
to get its hand slapped by some of the more
illustrious and colorful anti-war groups on this
campus. It’s a real shame that some of the more
vociferous members of these intellectual societies
don’t attend an ROTG class or two so they could
learn that their concepts of “Murder Inc.” would
make a great script for Mad Magazine but hardly for
a campus newspaper.

It appears that Canadians are enormously progressive
in putting aside the fears and prejudices of the past.
America is too preoccupied in fighting yesterday’s
foes.
Canada will undoubtedly remain anonymous to
many millions of Americans. This is quite regrettable
because the Canadian style of living is something
which should not be overlooked. Americans, at this
point in history, are overly mindful of their role in

Tenure controversy imminent

by Sarah tieLauren tis
News Editor

Editor's note: At a time when the Stale
University

of Buffalo

is

undergoing a

and expansion of present
systems, one issue which has gained notable
prominence both among faculty and
students is tenure, the granting of

reevaluation

permanent

University

appointments

to

faculty members who contracts are eligible
for renewal. The following is an explanation
of the procedures and influences involved in
the granting of tenure. The individual cases
which are creating controversy regarding
tenure, and the actions taken regarding them
will be enumerated in detail in a sequential
article.
Warren Bennis. vice president for
academic development, termed the granting
of tenure “the most significant
acknowledgement” a faculty member can
receive and a “way of knowing that he is
‘making it.’”
According to the policies of the Board of
Trustees of the State Univeisity of New
York, tenure is a procedure of continuing
appointment, the rules for which vary
University. At Buffalo, the question ot

tenure is brought into consideration after a
faculty member has served for a period of
approximately six years.

Presidential assistant Henrik Dullea
explained that one year prior to the
termination date of a faculty member’s

that person must be notified if he
is not going to receive tenure.
It is because of notifications of this
nature in several departments that the
matter of tenure has been contested
largely by students who feel that unfair
judgement has been made in certain cases.
Eric Larrabee, Faculty of Arts and
Letters, discussed some of the factors which
are influencial in tenure decisions. In every
case, he explained, the development of the
department must be speculated. If it will
grow, there will be more room for tenured
faculty members.
The size of the department, how many
students are involved and what programs are
included all affect the decision to be made,
according to Dr, Larrabee.
Dr. Bennis, when questioned as to the
influence of a possible stagnation of the
University by having too many tenured
faculty members, agreed that this too could
affect an individual’s chances for being

granted tenure.

Historical value

Dr. Bennis discussed the historical value
of tenure. He said it was initiated as a
“protection from political vicissitudes and
autocratic administrations.”
not a right.”
not sure what the faculty
expectations are at this University,” he
continued, but added that it was something
that should be hoped forbut not considered
a right.
Pointing out the difficulties in judging
tenure cases, Dr. Bennis said that because

“I’m

the

question is mandated to occur at a
definite Time in the faculty member’s stay at
tjje University, evaluation can.be premature.
This, he explained, places a hardship on the
individual involved.
Procedure
The procedures for determining tenure
begin one year before a person’s contract is
to expire. Tenured members of a
department make recommendations
concerning the faculty member under
question by means of a secret ballot. Upon
recommendation of the department, the
matter proceeds to a personnel committee
of the Faculty to which the department
belongs and the provost of the Faculty.

If tenure is recommended to this level,
the case is presented to the University
president for final approval. It is reviewed
also by the president’s Committee on
Appointments, Promotion and Tenure.
Both the provosts and the president have
the prerogative to override any
recommendations for the granting of tenure.
Dr. Bennis said it is “extremely hard for a
provost to act against a department which
votes negatively on a tenure appointment.”
He explained that a shortcoming in the

-

fact that judgment is limited only to a
faculty member’s departmental work. He
explained that there are cases where a person

the

department, in matters such as Faculty
Senate work, but his accomplishments in
this sense are not taken into consideration.

Testimony continues in Buffalo 9 trial
Special FBI agent Richard
Schaller denied that his
organization had used a house
across from the
Unitarian
Universalist Church to watch Bruce
Beyer and Bruce Cline, who had
taken symbolic sanctuary there. He
testified Thursday as the trial of
the Buffalo Nine proceeded into its
third day.

Later Mr. Schaller said: “Sorry,
I was mistaken,” disclosing that he

had been on the third floor of that
home “talking to the family.”
Eventually Mr. Schaller
acknowledged that movie cameras,
still cameras and a hand-radio were
stored on the third floor of the
home and that a prearranged plan
for arrest had been developed the
morning of Aug. 19.

that it is a person’s “own business
to participate in these rallies.” Mr.
Kennedy demanded: “If it’s his
business, why were you watching
him?” He answered’ “1 was ordered

to.”

Mr. Schaller admitted having

Dismissal motion denied
As the trial of four of the
“Buffalo Nine” went into its
fourth day Friday, the prosecution
rested its case, using tape and film
in addition to other evidence.
When the court recessed, a
demonstration in support of the
defendants was held in the streets
of downtown Buffalo. The defense
case then began, as attorneys
moved for a dismissal of charges
against the four. It was denied by
Judge John T. Curtin.
The tape played at the request
of prosecuting attorney Edgar
NeMoyer depicted the situation in
the Unitarian Church just prior to
the entrance of federal officers.
One could hear defendant Ray
Malak reading from Hemingway at
the microphone at the pulpit. Mr.
Beyer later told the crowd to let
the officers through, concluding
that “it’s up to an individual to do
what he thinks is right.”
Regarding his own actions, he
could be heard to tell the officers:
“I’m sorry, sir, I will not come
out.” Applause and chanting
followed this statement.
Color confusion
A representative of WBBN-TV
brought, his reel of film into the
courtroom, at the request of the
prosecution. The color film

the door of the church being
pushed aside by officers
attempting to enter.
Marshals leading Bruce Beyer
away in handcuffs were seen
chasing passers-by surrounded by
young people raising “V” signals in
the air.
Testifying against the
defendants were a photographer, a
Pag* IWo

border, patrol guard, four FBI

agents, a federal marshal and a
medical technician who reported
the injuries suffered by Chief
Marshal Alvin Grossman.
Various stories were extracted
several of them conflicting.
Among those testifying was Cecil
Miller, the FBI agent that Ray
Malak is charged with assaulting.
He testified that his story at the
preliminary hearing was incorrect,
he had been hit “with Ray’s
shoulder” rather than “in his own
shoulder,” insisted the agent.

“Insufficient evidence”
After the prosecution ended its
testimony, Michael Kennedy, the
attorney representing Bruce Beyer
and Carl Kronberg, requested
Judge Curtin to dismiss the
indictments against his clients on
several grounds.
Ho claimed insufficient
evidence that a crime had indeed
been committed or committed
willfully, pointing to the
conflicting

accounts

given.

Furthermore, he claimed that the
“resistance” shown to officers was

First Amendment and basic to the

Deputy U.S. Marshall Jerauld
Peck explained that he had gone to
the church on Aug. 14 to serve a
summons to Mr. Cline and Mr,
Beyer. He testified that he saw
them bum the paper which ordered
them to appear in Federal Court at
10 a.m. Aug. 19.

He testified to seeing Mr. Kronberg
grabbed out of the crowd in the
vestibule and pulled out by an
officer. Similar action was taken
against Mr. Malak. Both were
arrested without apparent cause,
he stated.
He saw men approaching

Mr.
Beyer from in front and behind,
then arms and legs flailing. A
minute later, Bruce was being
dragged off the platform with a
chain held across his neck by
Marshal Grossman. After “writhing
in pain” on the ground and being
“rolled over” by agents, he was
handcuffed and dragged away.
Mr. Altman was the concluding
witness of the day. The trial will
resume
9:30 a.m. Monday
morning.

Mr. Peck related that on Aug. 19
the government officers arrived at
the church to arrest Mr. Beyer and
Mr. Cline. Announcing their
intention over a bullhorn, they
gave the two men a minute to come
out. Mr. Peck described a scuffle
with the two defendants inside the
church. He claimed that he went to
the hospital that night and was
treated for “discoloration of my
right eye and a bruise on my leg.”

Granted sanctuary
Rev. J.D. Wright, assistant
minister of the Unitarian
Universalist Church at the time of
the incident, confirmed that “a
completely constitutional majority
of the congregation voted to
extend sanctuary” to Mr. Beyer
and Mr. Cline.

Cuba to return U.S. planes
by The Christian Science Monitor

In

WASHINGTON
Cuba’s agreement to return promptly
both skyjacked United States planes and their passengers is a
major first step in working out a full solution to the growing
menace of aerial piracy.
Moreover, it marks one of the few times in recent years
that Havana and Washington have come to terms on a
mutual problem.
“It is just the step we have passengers if the pilot, airline and
been waiting for,” a spokesman government concerned were
—

for the Federal
Aviation
Administration in Washington
said.
And State Department
spokesman Robert J. McCIoskey
hailed the accord, worked out
with the help 01 *he Swiss
Embassy in Havana, as “a good
step in the right direction.”
But the complete answer is still
some way off, a fact that was
pointed up in another skyjacking
just as the agreement was being
announced.
The latest incident involved a
Venezuelan Aeropostal jetliner,
seized by a band of five armed
men while on a domestic (light
and forced to fly to Santiago de
Cuba on the eastern end of the
island.
This skyjacking was the 15 th
for 1969 and followed closely on
the heels of another, that of an
Eastern Air Lines flight between
San Juan, Puerto Rico, and Miami
on Feb. 10. The passengers on
that Eastern flight were allowed
to continue to their destination
aboard the same plane that had
brought them to Cuba, first
evidence that the new accord was
in effect.

Previous delay
Previously,

were

passengers

required to transfer to another
airport at Veradero, some 90
m i 1o s from Havana. From
Veradero they were flown to
Miami where their plane had gone
earlier. The delay sometimes

involved more than 24 hours,
although

incidents
(

procedure for such
had been so greased that

uhans often got the passengers
to Veradero in eight

willing to accept responsibility.
“We welcome this more
expeditious and more convenient
method of returning passengers on
the same plane,” Mr, McCIoskey
told a press briefing. “This is a
good step and one that is certainly
in the right direction.”

Not a solution
But Mr. McCloskey added that
the agreement does not solve the
problem of skyjacking and said he
could report no progress in
Washington’s efforts to persuade
the Cubans to return the
skyjackers themselves.
Even though Mr. McCloskey
refused to indicate what talks are
under way; diplomatic sources in
Washington say that both the
Swiss Embassy in Havana and the
Mexican Government in Mexico
City are acting as intermediaries in
the whole question of skyjacking
and the effort to find a solution.
Washington and Havana have not
had diplomatic relations since
1961 and have had to rely on
intermediaries in the few instances
when they have had contacts.
The Cuban view
In the case of skyjacking there
appears to be sufficient evidence
to suggest that Cuban Premier
Fidel Castro is not overjoyed at
the continuing rash of incidents.
He does not regard the skyjackers
as heroes, although he has granted
them asylum in Cuba.
And there have been
suggestions from Cuban
authorities that they are

Dr. George J. Tomeh
Syrrian Arab Republic Ambassador to U.N.

TOPIC:

Cabinet endorses hiring hall
The President’s Cabinet of the State Univeisity of Buffalo Friday endorsed the
principle that the new Amherst campus “must be constructed by an integrated work force."
This action coincides with the passage of a resolution endorsed by several area civil
rights groups calling for the formation of a training school for construction workers and a
state-operated hiring hall.
Large-scale entry by non-white workers into the labor unions that will build the
Amherst campus is the projected result of the proposed hiring halls.
The President’s Cabinet, in its resolution, recognized the necessity for: “State or
federal responsibility to arrange for a training program to provide for competent workers in
sufficient numbers from all segments of society and to assure access to jobs by workers from
all segments of society.”
Members of the Cabinet include: representatives from the five student associations,
Service Employees Association, assistants to the president and Mac of the University,
masters of the Amherst colleges, head of the Civil Service Employee’s Association, assistants
to the president and Mac Hammond and C.L. Barber of the Faculty of Arts and Letters.

“Be It Further Resolved, that a

per semester be assessed by the
Student Association for a period
of four years, and
“That this fee shall not be used
to increase the present level of

aspects of university education that
students are most often dissatisfied with.

System that

fails

A general premise upon which the
university is maintained is: The system is
infallible; any individual failings or injuries
sustained should be attributed to the
personal inadequacies of the individual or
extenuating circumstances.
Although many students and faculty

product.

Center.

Outright defenders of the system point
to its success in producing distinguished

scientists, educators, and humanitarians. A
rebuttal, of which empirical evidence is
required, is doomed. There is no way of
measuring the vast numbers of creative,
immaginative, and independent individuals
who have been repulsed or squashed by the
system. Body counts and mental carnage
have no accounting in Blue Books or
Albany Reports.

How system operates
Certain words in our language manage
to defy definition - the implication being
that everyone knows what they mean
anyway. Note the fashionable and frequent
usage of “liberal” and “establishment.”
The ambiguity such words introduce into a
conversation is often useful because it
obviates the necessity of exact expression
with the real differences of opinion and
conflict which might accompany it. To
remove any doubts in this discussion of
what the “academic system is,” 1 have
attempted the following explication.

Perverted direction
The system encourages the whoring of
knowledge to the acquisition of higher
degrees and better standards of living. But
the most perverse of all, it encourages its
members to errect those facades of
intellect which prevent self-exposure and
destroy humanity. In
the academic
community it often seems that who has
surveyed the greatest amount of literature
in an area and is the most competent in
expressing his views is regarded as the most
sincerely committed. Facility is too often
mistaken for honesty. By eschewing any
regard for emotional considerations and

labeling
personal
experiences
as
anti-scholarly, the system perpetuates this
myth.

The system demands that the student
act as a mindless purveyor of answers to
multiple choice questions. Good students
more often know whether the answer is
A,B,C,D, or E, than bad students. Seldom
does either really “know” anything.
The distinction between good and bad is
specious. The “good” student wants to
believe that he knows, he wants to believe
the print-out sheet, but his doubts linger
and are compounded. Too infrequently
does he get a real opportunity to get some
feeling for what he does know and to
reveal his understandings.

education. In the words of J.
Krishmamurti: “Self-knowledge is the
beginning of wisdom; without
self-knowledge, learning leads to ignorance,

“ability to define rational authority,” nor

Daniel Bell.

Relevant education
An education is relevant if it assists the
student in understanding himself and in
freeing himself from the conditioning
influences which reduce his viability.
An education is relevant if it embodies a
real sensitivity to human problems and
allows all concerned to transcend their
“iden tity-alienation-authcnticity” crises
and to establish a sincere commitment to
life-affirming behavior.
An education is relevant if it allows the
student to develop his affective and
cognitive capacities placing
importance on the two.

an

equal

An education is relevant if a person can
expand his modes of expression and be
more perceptive in recognizing others.
“The most valuable intellectual
development,” according to A.N.

Whitehead, “is self-development.” A
relevant education is not structured by the
constraints of time, or credentials, or
economics, or pragmatism.

Needs flexibility

“Let each become all he is capable of
being” means flexibility and independence
in study, not conditioning and imitation.
No academic study can be divorced from a
continuing inquiry into, and a respect for,
the variations in how people leam.

“Education,” writes Maria Montesorri,
“is not what the teacher gives; education is
a natural process spontaneously carried out
by the individual, and is acquired not by
listening to words but by experiences upon
the environment.”

The distinction between what is taught
and what is learned is often lost in
megaversity education. As something of a
summary of student feelings on their
education, it is reasonable to say that
seldom is what is learned taught, and what
is taught is often merely memorized and
thereby lost.

The system is interested in questioning
provided that this inquisitiveness does not
challenge the status quo. The system
functions to justify and to strengthen, not

challenging and controlling the student

Planet News, by Allen Ginsberg; City Lights
Francisco; 1968.

Books, San

by Darrell Dodge
Last November, several thousand sandwich-sized
books with a familiar black and white cover design
flapped out from San Francisco’s City Lights
Bookstore. Three weeks ago, a two-foot stack of said
books appeared in Norton Hall. By last week, only
one remained.
Allen Ginsberg’s Planet News being gobbled up
so fast attests to the fact that he (with the possible,
and incredible, exception of Rod McKuen) is
America’s best known and most widely read modem
poet. Perhaps for this reason, it is widely suspected
among academics and critics that he'is just a fad, a
monstrous pop-fetish whose technical weaknesses
and general pop-slopiness will expose him to the
ridicule of “future generations.”
But Ginsberg is made of tougher stuff. If he
weren’t, he wouldn’t have survived the popular
press’s execution of the Beat and Hippy generations.
Indeed, with Planet News Ginsberg not only
transcends the factions of sub-cultural American art,
but emerges as a serious and committed artist, which
in these protean times, is an extremely rare and
dangerous thing to be.
Much of Planet News will be familiar to those
who’ve attended Ginsberg’s frequent readings, but
book assemblage requires revision. Most of the
recognizable changes are worthwhile, with some of
the rambling minor poems reduced to more
appropriate length.

think that “I here declare the end of the war” is all
that’s needed, but it seems, at best, overly
optimistic.

There is still a lot of “gunk” left, but I’m more

close analysts and academics find them appalling,

Have a problem? Need help? Do you find it impossible to untangle the
University bureaucracy? In cooperation with the Office of Student Affairs and
Services, The Spectrum sponsors Action Line, a weekly reader service column.
Through Action Line, individual students can get answers to puzzling questions,
find out where and why University decisions are made, and get action when
change is needed.
Just dial 831-5000 for individual attention. The Office of Student Affairs
and Services will investigate all questions and all complaints, and will answer them
individually. Action Line will include questions and replies of general interest
which appear to be pertinent to the student body. The name of the individual
originating the inquiry is kept confidential under alt circumstances
Make a note of the number: 831-5000 for Action Line.

Q; Students who had registered for Art History 114, Section F,
were told on arrival at class that only those who had been in the same
section the first semester were eligible because of the instructor's
special curriculum. By this time, all other art sections were filled and
“I now have no course.”
A: It is true that Section F is an experimental section and did not
accept new enrollees the second semester. However, in checking this
complaint, we found that you were able to get into another section of
Art History 114 before the drop and add period expired. It is apparent
that many students who are not art majors wish to take a course in art
history; for several semesters the Art Department has had to turn away
numbers of such students and wishes it had the faculty and facilities to
accommodate more in this course.

Q: I took French 101 the first semester and have to take 102 in
order to get credit for 101. Now that the new basic and distribution
requirements have dropped, in some cases, the language requirements,
do I still have to complete 102 in order to get credit for 101?
A: Dean Welch of University College said: “For this year only,
because of the change of the basic and distribution credits, any 101
language course can be counted for its full credit without
conlpletingng the second semester.”
Q: What information is available in a student’s file and under what
circumstances is it released?
A: As stated in a previous column, we canvassed various campus
offices for a review of their policy regarding student files. We continue
to relay our findings:
Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences; Dean F. Karl
Willenbrock stated: “The following information on juniors and seniors
in an engineering curriculum is kept on file in our offices; Semester
grade reports; curriculum flow sheet; transfer credit evaluation form;
comments by advisor or myself; letters substantiating exceptions to
establish curriculum; requirements for the degree form (seniors only);
high school academic record; copies of letters sent to students in
regard to Dean;s List, probation, drops, athletic eligibility, etc; any
other miscellaneous material pertaining to the student; student’s
photograph, if available.
“The above information is kept on file in the office of the
Assistant Dean and is available only to the student’s faculty advisor
and other members of the faculty. The information is never released
and only leaves the office when the faculty advisor requires it for
counseling purposes."
Graduate School: Dean ' Fred M. Snell stated: “The Graduate
School does not have files on all graduate students, only those who
have filed a program for a degree, filed a petition with the Executive
Committee of the Graduate School, or had other correspondence with
the Office.
“The file contains only academic information, such as the
following: completed program forms, T-D forms (thesis and
dissertation forms), the letter from the outside reader, authorization
for oral examination form or letter, and the ‘M’ form, which indicates
that a student has fulfilled all the requirements for his degree.
Transcripts, letters of recommendation and application forms, as well
as all other such information are filed with either Admissions and
Records or with the relevant department.
“A student may see his own file, upon request, as may appropriate
faculty members and the Graduate School personnel.”
(For specific answers to your questions, and for direct service, call Action
Line, 831-5000. If you prefer, phrase your question in writing and address it to

A player’s view
Special to The Spectrum

{

The collapsing athletic program and a sagging
fraternity and sorority status are good cases in point.
Individual assertion in areas other than academics is
looked upon with growing disfavor. It almost seems
like the Society of the Intellect has pronounced an
unspoken No-No on activities that are not directly
related to a conventional improvement of the mind.

Waxman welcome return
The Bulls received a welcome
shot in the arm with the
unexpected return of 6 foot 4
inch soph ace Steve Waxman to
action. Waxman’s presence
seemed to inspire the team and his
ten points and 12 rebounds attest
to his value in the lineup.
Buffalo pulled away from an
early 11-10 lead, outscoring the
Bees 18-8 to take command of the
game at 29-18 with less than seven
minutes remaining in the first
half. The Serfcrs then took a
41-32 lead into the locker room at
the end of the first stanza.
Second half spurt
The Blue and White took some
of the sting out of the Bees early
in the second half, mounting a
52-35 score some 4Vi minutes into
the action. The Serfmen, behind
the fine play of guard Jim
Freeney, who converted 1 I of 11
free throws in the game and did
an outstanding job directing
Buffalo’s offense, continued their
onslaught, stretching their margin
to 24 points at 65-41, midway
through the half.

Frosh successful
The baby Bulls completed a
three-game series sweep by
defeating cross-town rival Buffalo
State 97-86 Thursday in Clark
Ciym. Previously, the Blue and
White had defeated the
Orangemen by scores of 76-67
and 90-88.
The home team was never in
serious trouble in the game. At
halftime, the Mutomen, behind
high scoring guard Ron Gilliam,
had a 13 point lead. Gilliam led
the way with 28 points in the first
20 minutes of play.
Buffalo maintained a
comfortable lead in the second
half. The visitors could only
manage to come within eight
points of the lead.
High scorer in the game was
Ron Gilliam, who only managed
six points in the second half to
add to his sensational 28 point
total of (he first half. He sat out a
good part of the half because of
foul trouble. Ken Zak had 31
points for the losers.
The victory now makes the
Buffalo frosh team record stand at
12-6. The Orangemen suffered
their ninth loss in 16 starts.

The continued emphasis on the intellect and the
lessening concern for a total University picture has
forced a sort of “ivory towerism” upon all factions
of campus life. Every group, Whether it be a
fraternity or SDS, the athletic department or
Spectrum, is so wrapped up in the protection of
their own interests that no one seems to be working
for the common good of the school any longer.

believed to have been pioneered

Fencing gained its greatest
momentum after the introduction
of gunpowder as a weapon. The

It is rigid and has several small

Saber rules
In saber bouts, valid touches
must land on the body any place
above the waist, including arms
and head. The contestant scoring
five valid touches first is the
winner. As in foil, the conventions
of “right of way” are applied to
simultaneous touches.
A collegiate fencing match
consists of nine bouts, three in

from the total number of touches,
and the team with the most points
is declared winner.

The third weapon is the saber.
It is the same weight and length as
the foil, but has a triangular blade
with a cutting surface the entire
length of the front and a third of
the length of the back. Modern
saber fencing is nearest to the
technique of the old rapier. Both
the blade and the point are used
in scoring touches.

The rules provide that touches,
to be valid, must be made with

The State University of
Buffalo’s wrestling team raided
Brockport State last Wednesday
and came away with an easy 25-6

Scoring a quick takedown and

apart the nerves as it wrenches out
high-pitched sounds. Behind this
guitar is the Bakerish drumming
of Clive Bunker. It is quite evident
that this group has been greatly
affected by Cream and its
excellent personnel.
But by far the most exciting
aspect of the Ip is the flute
playing of lan Anderson. It is a
heavy airish sound that Ungers on
in the mind for a long time. It is
best displayed on the cuts “Some
Day the Sun Won’t Shine For

learned to play on the flute)

Exercise in enigma

‘Let’s push understanding’

The “referendum” proposed to reform and stabilize our
athletic program is a hoax. The originators of the-proposal
must be trying to put one over on all of us.

investigate the confusing present and uncertain future
financial position of the athletic department. This hopefully

referendum.
.

The board has apparently succumbed to pressure from the

administration and from worried athletes and has rushed to
support a haphazard set of very arbitrary and irresponsible
proposals.
We are being asked whether we want to eat their cake or
throw it away; nowhere are we asked what kind of cake we

“Bite me, starfish! I dare you!

want to eat.

The package proposal of three very separate questions
insults the intelligence of student voters. Even if taken
separately, the three proposals are irresponsible and
insubstantial. The entire “referendum” is an exercise in
enigma.
The first proposal calls for the examination of possible
conference affiliation which might prohibit grants-in-aid.
Students are not given the opportunity to decide the more
important question
one which involves one-third of the
of whether or not we should
entire intercollegiate budget
have any athletic scholarships.
The second proposal, calling for a four-year fee
assessment, is in clear violation of State University policy. It
is a cruel attempt to convince those approving the proposal
that their vote will somehow guarantee the stability of
athletics for four years. As long as athletics are dependent
upon student fees which must be determined each year by
referendum
there can be no guarantee of stability. If the
state does not want to pay for intercollegiate athletics, then
the only responsible program we can maintain is one which
can be operated at a minimal cost and a minimal risk; that is,
one which can be operated on a year-to-year basis.
The third proposal, by suggesting that a “well-rounded
intercollegiate, intramural, and recreation” program can be
somehow procured while maintaining the status of football,
ignores the basic question of priority. Why football “at the
present level?” Students should have the opportunity to
decide if they want to continue a program which drains off
two-thirds of the entire intercollegiate budget. The added
implication that for the first time this fee will not be strictly
an intercollegiate athletics fee, but one involved also with
intramural support, also established the a priori priority that
money will be spent on football first. Once again, students
must determine these crucial priorities.

Rap with ollie
by Oliver

I went to a conference in Atlanta, Ga. last week.
This conference was given by the National Student
Association National Staff. While I was flying back 1
thought of what I learned there about the meaning
of racism, I came to one answer and that was: almost
nothing.

I would like to say that racism is acquired by
the differences in skin color or differences in soul
development. These stem from a person’s domesticbackground and environment. OK. It is a feeling of
prejudice which one takes on for the relaxation of a
jealous or sadistic heart.
I noticed the racist ones and the non-racist ones.
There were barriers which came up when the
southern white students noticed the fine garments
that the black students were wearing. This blew their
minds.
When a white Southerner first hears of a
not a black one, but anyone who lives
Northerner
he thinks of them as being rich. This
in the north
is the first barrier they were using and probably
always use. To me a racist is one who lets the world
know what he is. The leftist, pacifist, rightist, draft
they are true
resister, communist, black militant
men for expressing their thoughts. What about the
racists
who
militant, rightist or leftist pacifist
hold their prejudices in and then let them out when
they get around their own kind? This is the big
trouble innate in the instances that man faces in his
everyday life.
Imagine how you will feel when you love
someone and hate him at the same time. This is the
trigger of the whole matter of emotions. I think that
it is a fact that a person goes through triggered
emotions when faced with a triggering situation. This
is maybe what is pleasing to some people as a
situation of triggered emotions which eases the
thought of his mind, of his own values, morals and

I’ve seen the same racist actions and emotions in
Atlanta, Ga., as I’ve seen in this state. Sometime we
will see in individual who has a big smile on his face.
This smile is thought of as the happiness of the one
who’s smiling, but it is known that the devil is an
expert of facial expressions.
I can only think of a racist as a person who has
his own dogmatic way of living and suppositions
which are geared toward the innate hate for the ones
he himself dominates. It should be asked why people
in this world prejudge, generalize and identify other
people.

They didn’t apologize or explain what they were
really shooting at. The blacks didn’t ask for the story
but who shot. All let communication drop.
You go to a school where you are in a
well-publicized minority and people are afraid to
step on your toes; but they do, by not talking. They
didn’t have to say: “Look out at who you shoot
milk at,” but (if it’s true) “I missed my target and
hit you?” The orange-streaked victim might have
second thoughts about his black brother, and all are
probably carrying a grudge.
Let’s push understanding, at least on the small

The irony lies in the fact that these men are not on

that is, formally charged

activities, but for various other charges. Conviction
would necessarily put the “troublemakers” out of

Institutional racism is no big thing; think about
the individual racism of the world. The only way to
combat racism, whether it is institutionalized or not,
is to weed out those who believe that the only way
to solve the world’s problems is by hate and let them
live in a separate state with each other.
I’ll bet you a million dollars to a strand of hair
in Whistler’s mother’s head that they will kill each

the normal birth costume of Mother Nature’s racial
mixer: build the thought in the little children’s
minds. I believe that one day we all will have peace
and happiness if in time the ones who believe in
overthrowing the world by the gun, cannon and
bombs will end their devil thoughts.

As 1 begin this letter, allow me to say that I am
nauseated like many other students, by the
bureaucratic bungling extant in our University. It has
recently been brought to my attention that two
members of my major department (Classics) have not
been promoted.
Their non-promotion is due to the fact that their
fields of classical specialization are no longer, shall we
—

say,desireable.
One of the professors concerned is a specialist in
patristical Latin and the other is a specialist in
archaelogy.
While I have never had the privilege of being under
their tutelage, I know them to be outstanding and
competent authorities in their respective fie.ds. And
do not consider their fields to be “undesireable.”
While it is true that the Classics department is one
of the smallest at this University, 1 believe it to be one
of the best anywhere in the U.S. I also believe that our
faculty is second to none and 1 fear that if these two
professors leave us, our department will suffer a
significant loss. Who is th§ Provost to say that
patristical Latin and archaeology are undesireable

Who is he to point his finger at our department and
what it should or should not teach?
It is really quite frightening. Is this academic
freedom?

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Campus ROTC draws fire
by Joseph Castrilli
Staff Reporter

recent interview with Dr. Feldman, he

Spectrum

AAUP position.

The issue that is being raised with increasing
in part a reflection of
frequency and intensity
widespread abhorrence of the Vietnam war is the future
status of the Air Force ROTC program at this University.
The major questions that have arisen in regard to the
—

-

ROTC program are:
How complete is the control of the Department of
the Air Force over the ROTC program?
How much control does the University have over the
Air Force’s “prescribed” curriculum?
What is the academic value of the program and should
it continue to receive credit, as such?
Draft dodging
There is also the question of why a person who has
selected the ROTC program may continue his education
at the graduate level uninterrupted, while those students
who do not choose ROTC lose their deferments upon
graduation and become subject to the draft.
Groups that have expressed concern over the ROTC
program include the American Association of University
Professors and Students for a Democratic Society.
The AAUP, in a letter to the Executive Committee of
the Faculty Senate, questioned whether it is appropriate
for military personnel to be considered members of the
faculty of the University.
Such questioning could by inference ultimately lead
to an examination by the Faculty Senate of whether
credit should continue to be awarded for courses taken in
the Department of Aerospace Studies.

SDS position
The SDS position on the ROTC program is that it is
controlled by an off-campus body the US. Air Force.
As such, the academic community as a whole does not

elaborated on the

The broader questions
“By raising the question of the status of ROTC
instructors," said Dr. Feldman, “we are in effect reaching
the broader, more significant issue of the educational
value of the entire ROTC program.”

Presumably, the AAUP believes that

once

the

question of the faculty status of ROIC instructors is
brought into question, the Faculty Senate will be forced
to consider whether the ROTC program is truly an
academic program worthy of credit.
"The question of voting membership in the Faculty
Senate,” said Dr. Feldman, “is a means of opening this

more important dialogue.”
On Nov. 13, 1968, Dr. Feldman’s letter was placed on
the agenda of the Faculty Senate Executive Committee.
At that meeting it was decided that the Faculty Senate
Committee on Tenure and Privileges, under the direction
of George R. Levine, would undertake the study. Tire
committee is now in the final stages of preparing its
recommendations to be presented to the Executive
Committee.

Administration view
The University administration, aware of the Faculty
Senate’s activity and the actions that have been taken by
the faculties of Harvard and Vale and other universities in
abolishing course credit for ROTC, has also been studying
the question.

evaluate its academic worth.
They specifically propose that academic credit no
longer be awarded for any course in the Department of
Aerospace Studies.
Marvin J. Feldman, president of the AAUP’s
University chapter, in the letter submitted to the
Executive Committee of the Faculty Senate on Oct. 15,

1968, requested that the Faculty Senate “undertake a
study of whether military personnel assigned to ROTCprograms on this campus should be allowed to have voting
membership in the Senate.”
Presently, according to a U.S. Government law passed
in 1964 concerning the status of ROTC instructors at

Universities, “the senior commissioned officer of the

Claude E. Welch, dean of University College, clarified
the administration viewpoint with reference to the Air

Force-ROTC program:

“The University is a forum for the free expression of
ideas. We have the obligation to make as many points of
view available as possible. The Air Force-ROTC program is
a voluntary opportunity for those students who are
inclined to choose it.”
Dean Welch also alluded to the contract between the
Department of the Air Force and this University, signed
by Peter F. Regan, executive vice president, Sept. 13,
1967.
Under Article 2, Section A of the contract, the
obligations of the University are prescribed.

Toy soldiers?
Students and faculty are urging re-evaluation
University’s role in Air Force “war game.

“All men that are ambitious of military command are inclined to
continue the causes of war, for there is no honor...(for) the military but by
war; nor any such hope to mend an ill game, as by causing a new shuffle.

This would appear to violate the spirit of an academic

This procedure has since been changed by the

Military controls content

The University is to “establish a Department of
Aerospace Studies as an integral academic and
administrative department of the institution. The
Secretary of the Air Force will prescribe the course
content, conduct of the course and provide the support
Section C of the contract states "... the institution
will grant appropriate academic credit applicable toward

graduation.”

The contract signed by the University has as its legal
basis the U.S. government law of 1964 Under it, “The
institution adopts as a part of its curriculum, a four-year
course of military instruction or a two-year course of

advanced training of military instruction or both
which the secretary of the military department concerned
prescribes and conducts.”
A central point which this law brings to light is that
an outside organization, the U5. Air Force, controls the
curriculum of the Aerospace Program, subject to minimal
influence by the University.

Vice President Regan, in commenting on the

program, “it does surrender a degree of authority.”

present ROTC program structure, Dean Welch suggested
that one of the courses of action open to the University
would be the incorporation of many of the courses now
taught by ROTC instructors into a number of other
such as political science
departments of the University
where they would be able to retain their
or philosophy
credit-bearing status.
“However,” said Dean Welch, “it is certainly within
the province of this University to abolish credit for the
ROTC program.”

Witness gives conflicting
testimony in ‘Nine’ trial
by Dennis Arnold
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Before a crowded Federal
courtroom, a reporter from
the Buffalo Courier-Express,
Herman T. Erickson, testified
Wednesday that Federal
agents present in the Unitarian Universalis! Church
Aug. 19 were unarmed in
their attempt to arrest Bruce
Beyer and Bruce Cline on
charges of resisting military
induction.
Later, however, he seemingly reversed his testimony
Under cross-examination
after being confronted with
pictures showing Federal
agents armed with clubs and
chains.
The testimony was presented
during the trial of four of the
Bruce Beyer, Ray
Buffalo Nine
Malak, Gerald Gross and Carl
Kronberg
charged with
assaulting a Federal officer.
During questioning by Federal
prosecutor tdgar C. NeMoyer, Mr.
Frickson described the actions of
the Federal marshals and Federal
Bureau of Investigation agents
before and after their entry into
the Unitarian Church,
Erickson said; “Mr. Alvin
Grossman, a Federal Marshal led
several other Federal marshals
into the church, where they were
met by a human barricade.”
Michael J. Kennedy, one of the
IwO-defense attorneys, objected
to the use of the word barricade.
Circuit Court Judge John T.
Curtin sustained his objection and
the testimony resumed.
After depicting the ascent of
the agents to the pulpit at which
Beyer and Cline wen? speaking the
reporter testified: “I saw Beyer
turn. He had an object in his hand
and he struck FBI agent Schaller
on the nose with it. The agents
then forced Beyer against the
wall, threw him on the floor and
handcuffed him.”
Questioned about Beyer's
condition as he left the church,
Mr. Erickson replied: “The
defendant was not bleeding. The
blood on his shirt was Agent
Schaller’s.”

During this part of the
testimony, Mr. Erickson firmly

maintained that the agents were
unarmed and had not struck
Beyer with any objects.
However, when Mr. Kennedy
produced two pictures taken at
the church which showed Agent
Schaller holding a metal-tipped
club and Mr. Grossman swinging a
long metal chain, the witness was
able to recollect that the agents
had all been armed with clubs or
chains.

After Kennedy finished his
cross-examination. Mr. NeMoyer
called Alvin Grossman to the
stand to testify as a witness for
the prosecution.
Mr. Grossman, giving his view

of the Aug. 19 arrests, said:
"Bruce Beyer took a swing at a
deputy. I jumped up on the pulpit
to assist him. As we were moving
Mr. Beyer from the pulpit, he was
struggling.”

Asked about the chain he was
shown holding in a defense
exhibit picture, the witness
replied: "I had a restraining chain.
I used the chain not as a weapon.

20% OFF EVERYTHING

but as a tool to keep the people
back.”
Kennedy continued to cross
examine Grossman in an
extremely heated manner and
made a specific point of the fact
that despite Grossman’s full
knowledge of an unguarded side
door at the church, he chose to
enter through the front where a
crowd of approximately 100
persons stood.
Mr. Kennedy observed that it
seemed strange that a man who
allegedly abhors violence would
bring several Federal marshals
armed with clubs through a large
crowd.
About 150 supporters of the
four defendants were inside the
6th floor courtroom, while
another group, numbering close to
100 at times, demonstrated
outside.

The first scheduled witness during the
open session was Lt. Edward R. Murphy

Jr., the Pueblo’s executive officer and
second in command to the skipper, Cmdr.
Lloyd M. Bucher.
The five admirals investigating the
capture of the Pueblo spent the morning
reviewing testimony of the first two phases
of the inquiry - the Pueblo’s mission and
the actual capture
and preparing for the

captivity phase.
Murphy was expected to elaborate on
the role he played in the North Korean
prison where the 82 surviving crewmen
were taken after the Pueblo was seized Jan.
23, 1968.
Murphy gave an outline of the crew’s
life in North Korea during a news
conference here a few days after the men
were flown back to the United States from

Korea.

He indicated then the treatment in
was “rough” and a “terrible
ordeal,” but then added: “The Korean
people have a lot to show

and South. Many of us have good
impressions of some North Koreans,”
The five-admiral court flew to Norfolk,
Va., over the weekend to inspect two ships
similar to the Pueblo so they could better
visualize the hours of testimony about
what happened during the capture.

Vice Adm. Harold C. Bowen Jr., head of
the court, said the inspection was
“extremely useful.” Bucher’s civilian
attorney, E. Miles Harvey, said the trip was
“-a great deal more successful than
expected.”

The admirals and Harvey looked at the
interior of the USS Palm Beach, an
intelligence ship similar in structure to the
Pueblo. They also visited the USS Range
Recover, a sister ship to the Pueblo.
Although Bucher was legally entitled to
make the trip, he declined.

He refused, however, to comment on

Fulbright said there “seems to be a little

negotiate an early end to the arms race.
While refusing to discuss the ABM
specifically, Rogers said that in the
interests of the U.S. and world peace, "we
intend to pursue seriously and in good

�Natiort reevaluates campus units

Student pressure weakening ROTC
by Done Klein
College Editor

Reflecting increased militancy on
college campuses across the country,
pressure has been mounting towards the
abolition of the Reserve Officers Training
Corps.
It stands accused of “stifling free
dialogue and independence” and “cranking
out platoons of homogenized, conformist,
cadet automatons who are completely
antithetical to any notion of a great
university,” in the terms of a University of
California at Santa Barbara student.
Under attack in recent years by students
who consider the Corps a part of the U.S.
war machine, ROTC has recently been
deprived of academic standing by some
University administrators across the nation,
while others consider the proposal.
Since September there have been at
least four bomb incidents; during the past
five years, enrollment has dropped by
9000. In 1964 there were 132 schools with
mandatory programs; there are presently
95.
The American Civil Liberties Union has
decided that ROTC is incompatible with
“academic freedom,” as the Defense
Department directs course content and
allegedly suppresses class discussion.
In the 1930s, ROTC was attacked at
such schools as City College of New York,
and it met resistance even in the fifties. But
the crucial issue in the new opposition in
Vietnam and the larger question of
American military action abroad.

‘Makes little difference’

To radicals, ROTC is part of the armed
forces engaged in suppressing popular
movements overseas and in the U.S. itself;
specifically, it provides the ladership.
In reply to the liberals’ solution of
simply denying academic credit, they
explain: “It makes little difference to the
Vietnamese or to American black people
whether the Army secures ‘human
resources’ on college campuses in an
extracurricular rather than a curricular

fashion.”
One SDS member at Harvard
commented: “If Murder, Inc, came to
campus they would not have the right to
exist." Thus ROTC has no right to exist on
a campushe reasoned.
ROTC is fighting back, often using the
same arguments in an inverted fashion. A
statement read: “Who is prepared to trust
their sons
let alone the nation’s destiny
to the leadership of high school boys and

Universities

Mounting criticism

college dropouts?”
It went on to condemn the “waste” that
would result if “brilliant young Harvard
men with God-given abilities” were to be
drafted and serve two years as privates.

Needed by Army
The armed forces, according to this
statement released in Cambridge, Mass.,
need ROTC. About 45% of all current
Army officers are ROTC graduates,
including 85% of all 2nd lieutenants. The
Army “needs 18,000 new 2nd lieutenants
each year to meet normal attrition.”
There are presently about 270,000 men
enrolled on 330 campuses. Some schools
have two-year programs, others four. Often
contracts state that a certain number must
be enrolled, so the school makes
enrollment compulsory.
Pentagon officials are not all concerned
with student protest against their facilities.
“It’s the goons and the beatniks who are
doing it.” was one opinion nthejs are hurl
when their program is demoted at a
college. Expressing disappointment, the
colonel at Harvard will urge the Pentagon
to close his unit.
Wisconsin rejection
The most recent

rejection

of

the

program was at the University of Wisconsin
this past week, as the Regents voted
unanimously to recommend the abolition
of compulsory military courses at the
Madison and Milwaukee campuses.

commended the Administration’s use of
National Guard troops to stifle recent (and
continuing) disorders there.
The Administration claimed that the
compulsory program had not brought in
enough recruits; the senior ROTC
commandent favored the change. Students
had agitated for its abolition earlier in the
year by protesting freshman orientation
and rejecting it in a referendum.
Earber in the year, three “Ivy League”
colleges Harvard, Yale and Cornell had
similarly expressed distaste for the military
program. At Cornell, ROTC will be a
non-credit academic program and drills will
be extracurricular. Military instructors will
no longer hold faculty status. Enrollment
has dropped from 3000 to 600 in eight
-

years.

Cornell President James A. Perkins
called it “unacceptable" to let military
personnel teach courses with “political
content.” Cornell is a land-grant school and
carries ROTC under the 1862 Morrill Act.

The Yale College faculty voted in
January to strip ROTC of its academic
standing and relegate it to extracurricular
status. One professor compared it to
“singing in the Whiffenpoofs
a perfectly
fine activity, but one that we don’t think
merits any academic standing.”

‘For God and country’

One irate cadet at Yale complained:
“Our courses are more academically sound
than cinematography and sculpture and
some of the other ridiculous subjects
taught around here. Besides, if you want to
get emotional about it, it’s supposed to be
for God, for country and for Yale.”
The faculty at Harvard voted to demote
ROTC early this month. Courses will no
longer be listed in the catalogue. They had
rejected a stronger motion to abolish
ROTC and a weak one to set stricter
academic standards.
Harvard has units of all three armed
forces and was one of the first in the
country. Almost half the enrolled members
are graduate students who thereby receive
deferments from the draft.—

Agitation brings change
Other schools have followed the
November decision of the City College of
New York to discontinue academic credit
for ROTC. Change has occurred at Johns
Hopkins, Bowdoin, University of
Pennsylvania, Dartmouth. Western

Maryland, among others.
Students are agitating to get ROTC off
campus at Michigan. Lehigh, Middlebury.
Stanford and Boston. At Niagara
University, sophomores will no longer be
compelled to take military courses.

Protest has taken various forms, from

joining parades
students at Alfred were
expelled for this
“infiltration” at
Stanford, demonstration at CCNY and
Columbia, to declining participation. At
some schools, enrollment is down by hall.
Bombs have been planted in buildings at
Santa Barbara and Washington University.

Wartime tool
ROTC was inaugurated as a response to
wartime conditions. The first school to
offer military training was the American
Academy, now Norwich University in
Vermont, in 1819. Programs were
instituted on a large scale during the Civil
War under the land-grant system. A course
offering in military tactics was required
The National Defense Act of 1916
created the Army Reserve Officers
Training Corps to standardize present
military courses. Many schools made the
program mandatory for “patriotic
reasons. The Air Force program was the
last to be established, in 1946. Schools are
still applying for programs.
Instructors are paid by the Defens
Department, which also sets curriculum n
for example. “Communism”, "Navigation
no
and “The Art of War,” courses
precisely comparable to “singing in th
Whiffenpoofs.”

ThC Spectrum

�ROTC draws fire...
-continued from page 1The important question of the
academic value of ROTC is what
motivated both the AAUP and
SDS. Their fears stem in part from
the fact that the course goals are
‘prescribed” by the Secretary of
the Air Force.

Course material

Among the course goals set
down by the Air Force are:
“Familiarity with the factors
and instruments of national power
and the manner in which these
instruments are used to attain
national objectives;
“familiarity with the mission
of the U.S. defense establishment
and with the relation of each of
the armed services in carrying out
this mission;

“familiarity with the doctrine
and mission of the U.S. Air Force
and the manner in which the Air
Force is structured to accomplish
this mission;
knowledge of the functions of
U.S. strategic offensive, defensive
and general purpose forces; and
knowl-dge of the present and
potential
threat Communism
poses to that freedom.”
Col. John J. Herbert Jr., head
of the Department of Aerospace
Studies at the University,
defended the academic aspects of
the ROTC program.
"We are qualifed to teach what

we are teaching as much as
anyone else,” said Col. Herbert,
“and we have the ability to teach

Air Force recommendations
Presently, all college educated
officers interested in teaching in a
ROTC program must take a
six-week course devoted to the
teaching of education. This course
is taught lit the Academic
Instructors. School at Maxwell Air
Force Base in Montgomery, Ala.
Upon successful completion of
the course, the Department of the
Air Force decides whom it will
recommend to teach the ROTC
programs at
the various
universities. These
recommendations can be rejected
by the particular university
involved in which case the Air
Force Department can make
another recommendation.
The draft question is
ultimately raised when discussing
ROTC. Last year 33 cadets were
given deferments upon graduation
to continue their education at the
graduate level. These deferments
may be given regardless of the
area of study involved, and for as
long as two years after graduation.
Double standard
For those students not in the
ROTC program, graduation
usually means a loss of deferment

and the possibility of being
drafted unless they are going to
medical school or planning to
teach.
Thus a dangerous double
standard is set up between those
who choose ROTC and those who
do not.
Col. Herbert, in discussing the
possibility of ROTC losing its
academic credit, said that if this
happened the burden for the
production of future officers
would fall upon the service
academies.
“At the academies,” Col.
Herbert concluded, “you get a
much narrower education. You’ve
got to continue to bring civilians

runways in New York City forced
postponement. Buffalo’s next

The baby Bulls lost their sixth
game in 17 starts when the

Huskies hand basketball
Bulls 3rd loss in a row

by Rich Baumgarten
It seems almost strange that with the present athletic financial
turmoil centering around football, no one has bothered to ask:
“What’s the future of the smaller sports at this University?"
The squeeze on the Athletic Department's budget is being felt by
just about every sport. Baseball, for instance, could be in trouble come
spring. A two-week southern tour during spring vacation is still
planned for the hardballcrs. but their money allowance has been cut to

the bone.

Crew is another sport that knows the meaning of financial
deprivation. Though not a varsity sport, the athletic department has
given the crewers some financial assistance. In fact, without the SI500
supplied by the athletic department last fall, there wouldn’t have been
any crew in the first place. And now plans for spring training in
Florida may have to be shelved. The money just isn’t there.
Just five weeks ago, the hockey club learned about the financial
facts of life. The icers were about to depart on a road trip to Canton
Tech. Unfortunately, there wasn't any money to pay for the trip. Only
through an emergency loan by the Student Association were the
hockeymen able to make the trip The club now charges $ 1.00 aticket

make ends meet.
Rugby. Soccer loo
Then there are sports like rugby and

to

soccer, both club sports.

They derive their money principally from Student Association grants.
The soccer club gets S375 and the rugbymen a little over $1000.
In neither case is it enough.
The money for the soccer club goes almost entirely for team
busses. There is little left over. Players buy their own equipment and
pay for personal expenses. The Buffalo soccer club does not have a

full-time Coach. It can’t afford

to hire one.

Rugby operates on almost tire same system as soccer. The club
spends most of its allotment on transportation. And the players buy
their own equipment. Nor is there a coach.
Financially speaking, then, rugby and soccer are both in the same

boat. Neither has the financial

resources

develop its fullest

to

potential. And the worst thing is that the University Athletic
Department is in no position to help.
It’s really unfortunate that most students at the Slate University
of Buffalo associate an athletic fee only with football. The truth is that
the athletic fee covers a variety of sports. Thai’s why when the

reduced from S 12.50 to S5.50 a semester, the entire
athletic program suffered. Football wasn’t the only sport hurt.
It’s important for students to realize that with a SI2.50 athletic
fee, the entire University athletic program can be put on a firm
financial basis. With the solid backing of the Athletic Department such
sports as crew, rugby, soccer and ice hockey would be free to develop
their potential as competitive, intercollegiate teams.

This letter is concerned with the sad state that
student government is in at this University. The
Polity has consistently shown that it does not reflect
the views of the majority of the students here.
What happens is that there is a polity meeting
which is not publicized enough and about 100
people (about 1% of the student body) pass
legislation and everyone who doesn’t agree with it
bitches (whether or not they were there) and often a
petition is drawn up and the original legislation
changed. This all leaves the Polity, which is basically
a good idea, with a bad reputation.
My whole point is" that all this can easily be
remedied and we can have a truly representative
student government. Why can’t all voting be done
outside the polity meeting itself? There could be
places to vote in Norton and in the dorms and the
voting could go on until at least 60 to 80% of the
the New American President to Come Unto student body had voted. This way no one could
bitch about not having a say in the student
government and our Polity would be truly
democratic.

As some of you probably remember, the title of

motto was: “For everyone who is against all the

Said publication, a collection of bitches by
various people about various things, died a
lamentable, but predictable death. (There are things

‘A funny thing...
To the editor

A funny thing happened to me when I went to
Aliotta’s night club last week. My two friends let me
off in front of the door and told me they would
meet me inside after they parked the car. As I
walked in, the gentleman at the door asked me for
the $1 cover charge and permitted me to enter.
A few minutes later my two associates arrived
and were stopped at the door by the same man who
let me in. He asked them for their “sheriff’s card,
but since neither had one they were not allowed to
join me.

This seemed to me as a feeble excuse to keep
my colleagues out, because they had adequate proof
of age. One had his driver’s license, car registration
and draft card; the other, who was a native of SI

Louis (and never even heard about a sheriff’s
was a veteran of the armed forces, had a voters
registration card and a college ID card which had his
picture on it.
This bothered me. because the same gentleman
who required my companions to show proof of their
age not only let me in without asking for it but

several other people too.

or at least attempt to see it so with as little ideology
in the way as possible. While more people seem to be
encouraging the viewer to see things in various ways,
few seem to be urging that man and his creations be
newed as a product of a magnificent chaos, which
shows no signs of abating. In both its snarling and
inconsistency, perhaps this column offers some
solace to those beset by an “orderly” society. (So
I'm delusional, too but I would like to think so).

on civil cases that this is a criminal
case and “requires a heavier

Frequently referring to the
large number of spectators in the
court, the judge warned the jurois
not to be disturbed by them,
because “they have a right to be
here.” The court was jammed,
additional benches were brought
in and still some students had to
wait outside the door. The guard
observed this novelty with
surprise: “For once we have more
spectators than jurors here.”

Student supporters were not

Demonstrators paraded outside

The signs explained the

demonstrators could readily be
heard.
Judge Curtin predicted that the

however, that the U.N. should not

Czech old guard hangs
The Christian Science Monitor

Without

the

Russians present, the
Czechoslovak “conservatives” would be a
negligible force long since swept from
power. They still have no following of any
size in the country and represent few
people except themselves.
But under present conditions they
cannot be ignored. And there is more to
their current campaign than the abuse of
the reformers by means of anonymous
leaflets and threatening letters.
There is evidence of this in the
obviously increasing influence of
hard-liners in the Ministry of the Interior.
This influence has made itself felt in the
tightening of press controls.
Czech Premier Stanislav Razl has again
informed the editors of Prague’s
irrepressibly lively trio of weeklies, Listy,
Reporter, and Zitrek, of the necessity for
firmer inside editorial control over
outspoken contributors if a return to direct
censorship is to be avoided.
Sixteen well-known press and radio
commentators have also been singled out
for their forthright opinions. Undoubtedly
the Russians would like to see them
removed. But dismissals have so far been
avoided, if only because of the strong
united front exhibited within the news
media and between the media and the
trade unions.
It is also becoming more difficult for
Western journalists to work in
Czechoslovakia. When at the end of
January the Interior Ministry ordered out a
score of correspondents who had entered
the country “illegally” with tourist visas
and then proceeded to file stories to their
newspapers or make television films,
limitations were also imposed on
journalists, holding bona fide working
visas.
As these visas expired, the Foreign
Ministry’s customary practice of
recommending prolongation was
overridden. The correspondents concerned
this writer among them - were politely
asked to leave the country and advised to
wait a short time before requesting reentry.
Some had just been told that their formal
accreditation for a virtually unlimited stay
was on the point of issue.
The handful of Western correspondents
already accredited must tread with
circumspection in, or even avoid, certain
sensitive areas if they do not wish this
official recognition to be withdrawn.
All this is a mark of the difficulties
under which some government agencies
must themselves operate. According to
sources who should know, there are no
Russian “advisers” actually installed in the

Interior Ministry.

But the minister himself, Jan Pelnar,
though a supporter of the Dubcek
leadership, is subject to heavy pressure
from outside, via the hard-liners still
ensconced in the vital upper layer of his
ministry to “keep order.”
The main causes of public unease are
the doubts anii nnrortainfipc jhont what
really is happening or i«Tgoing to happen.
Mr. Dubcek acknowledged this when,
though rebuking the so-called “pressure
groups” urging the government to do the
“impossible,” he admitted that they were
motivated by concern for survival of the
—

liberalizing reforms.

The leadership, however, tends
increasingly to expect public opinion to

and more in evidence
“We must realize once and for all,”
wrote the Slovak newspaper Pravda Feb. 4,
“that the party and state leadership know
best what we can allow in this situation
and what is impossible.”
Pravda is the mouthpiece of Gustav
Husak, the Slovak party leader who has
consistently urged “realistic” acceptance of
Russian demands for regulating the internal
Czechoslovak situation.
Most Czechs dismiss Mr. Husak as
pro-Russian. But
that is an
oversimplification which is also unjust. Mr.
Husak was among the many who suffered
under the former Stalinist regime.
His position is also a reflectin of a
wide-spread Slovak attitude. The Slovaks
were interested in federalization more than
in the advanced democratization sought by
the Czechs.
Now that federalization has been
achieved, bringing them autonomy and
rights in fields where they had none before,
the Slovaks are concerned not to rock the
boat.
But neither Mr. Husak nor the other
uncompromised men in the leadership
would favor any return to the Stalinist
methods of the Novotny regime.
This represents the major claim the
leadership can make after nearly six
months of Russian occupation. There have
been none of the political arrests
anticipated when the Russians came in.
and, apart from the few ministers removea
at the outset, there have been few
dismissals.
But increasingly power in Prague is in
the hands of a strangely mixed group of
“centrists” and “realists.” Some are
undoubtedly sincere, others are
opportunists.
Also, a “conservative,” Lubomir
Strougal
the man with four top party
posts acquired since November
emerges
increasingly as the personality most
favored by the Russians.
The Russians blocked both a party
congress and the parliamentary elections
due last September because each would
have strengthened the progressive ranks.
Though a start is to be made with the
new electoral law, the public is still left
guessing when elections will be held.
Leaders talk vaguely of “ultimatums”
over demands which people know are out

They parry the call for elections with

held this year.
What they say publicly is to some
extent controlled by the “normalization"
agreements with the Russians. But the
recent stress on returning relations with the
Communist allies to the old footing is in
sharp contrast with the failure to answer
keenly felt domestic issues.
Together the two simply nurture the
concern over a further drift back to
old-style “conservatism.” Furthermore,
they raise misgivings that to try to stem the

next big test could come in a month’s time,

MADISON (UH)
National
Guardsmen with fixed bayonets moved
back onto the University of Wisconsin
campus to deal with a fresh invasion of
chanting, stomping student rebels.
There had been hopes the guardsmen,
called out last week to put the lid on
student disruptions, could be sent home,
But they were needed again when 350
noisy dissidents invaded Bascom Hail and
began to disrupt classes.
At an equally tense campus, striking
students and professors at San Francisco
State College sought to circumvent an
enrollment check system on the opening
day of the spring semester.
Elsewhere, a group calling itself the
“Steering Committee to Reform for
University" presented a list of demands it
called non-negotiable to officials of
Pennsylvania State University.
At the University of Notre Dame, scene
of disruptions ten days ago, the Rev.
Theodore M. Hesburgh. the school’s
president, laid down a "get lough” policy
which will allow demonstrators only
minutes to disband or face suspension,
expulsion or arrest.
Violators will be gjven 15 minutes of

Hesburgh’s letter to the students and
faculty of the Roman Catholic school said,
The Wisconsin rebels, pressing a list of
demands for black students, rallied a crowd
of 1200 at which one ringleader told them:
"We’ve been too pacifist, too naive. We’re
going to change our tactics.”
Then the band set out for Bascom Hall,
considered the heart of the lakefront
campus. Police in riot gear and holding
clubs met them, but did not try to restrain
the marchers.
At San Francisco State, acting President
S.l. Hayakawa ordered that registration
cards must be signed by both students and
faculty members on the first day of classes
to guarantee their status at the school.
While a handful of striking teachers
picketed the main entrance, most of the
250 striking professors met with their
classes. A leaflet issued by the American
Federation of Teachers said: “Our
members shall establish their classes by
meeting the first and only the first section
of each course.”
At Duke University, a negotiation
session between administration officials
and Negro students eased tensions.

Buffalo campus is a fitting
location, since it will become a

If worst comes to worst, the
entire installation can be

the Amherst campus.”
Dr. Farhi is proud of the
University’s success and the
recognition and stature it implies.
“I think we’ll be the only place in
the country where this kind of
work goes on,” he predicted.
“Themis is havily committed

serious fear that the Black Studies
Program would be merely a
conglomeration of courses with
no direction for the student. In
the current draft, a student is
required to major in either the
Humanities or Social Sciences
division of the program.
Dr. Lynch stressed that this
requirement would produce
graduates with a firm basis in a
specific discipline coupled with an
in-depth concentration on the
black experience.
A second issue raised is
whether the Black Studies
Program would worsen rather
than ameliorate race relations on
campus. Dr. Lynch feels that if we

“This is not an ivory tower

Lynch. He stressed the important
interaction that the Black Studies
Program will have with the
community. A- draft of the
proposal requires that all majors
in Black Studies have experience
in the black community either in
organizational or research
projects.

Dr. Lynch noted the danger
that a program of this nature will
be used to foster black nationalist
ends and the fear of many that
public monies will be channelled
into political ends.
He emphasized the importance
of a balance between the
realization that while black
nationalist forces can have a
positive psychological effect on
students, at no time must the
program lose sight of its academicends.

Will aid transfer students

formed

A Transfer Advisory Board under the leadership of M.
Francis Kelly, assistant to the dean of University College, has
been formed to examine entry and orientation procedures
for transfer students.
Composed of student
personnel administrators and

transfer students from two-year
and four-year colleges, its goal is
to focus University interest on the
impact of transferring. It will also
try to stimulate a more effective
liaison between the University and
colleges from which these
students transfer.
To accomplish this, they will
alert department chairmen to the
need for faculty advisement of
transfers, orient the University
College advisement staff to the
needs of junior college students
and disclose research about
transfer students.
“Nothing really important can

be done until the faculty becomes
involved,” said Dr. Kelly at last
week’s meeting.
.

One plan is to establish
visitation teams consisting mainly
of transfer students. They will
accompany Admissions and
Records representatives on visits
to two-year colleges and will try
to answer questions about the
University and transferring in
general. Pilot visits to Niagara,
Geneseo, Monroe and Jamestown
Junior Colleges are planned for
this spring.
Also, a full-scale research
survey of transfer students on
campus has been
initiated.
Recommendations are being made
calling for the use of transfer
students as advisors at the summer
planning conferences.
Plans also are being formulated
to set up a fall workshop led by
junior college experts of national
repute to which the University
community would be invited. A
Transfer Advisory Office in

commercials.
Ionesco hated the conventional
theater and felt embarrassed for
the actors. “Going to the theatre
meant going to see people,
apparently serious people, making
a spectacle of themselves.” Who
has not felt sympathy and

embarrassment for those poor
souls who are forced by account
executives to participate in that
travesty on choreography, the
Teaberry Shuffle?
If the theater had embarrassed
him “by enlarging and thereby
coarsening nuances, that was
merely because it had been
enlarged insufficiently. What
seemed too crude was not crude
enough, what seemed to be not
subtle enough was in fact too
subtle.”
This is the essence of one of
Ionesco’s major approaches to the
theater and it is the key to the
absurdity of commercials.

�Bob Doming, Bulls’ defensive Serfboard
specialist, named head coach Bulls bitter pills
’

by Alan Jeff

Bob Deming, a Bulls’ assistant coach for ten years,
became the youngest head football coach in Buffalo history
when he was named to that spot Saturday.
A 33-year-old former defensive
specialist during the regimes of

coaches Dick
Offenhamer and Doc Urich,
Deming will lead the Bulls into
Buffalo’s 61st collegiate season
this fall against “one of the most
challenging schedules in Buffalo
former

head

gridiron history.”

Dando, McNally remain

The former Colgate fullback
immediately named holdovers Bill
Dando and Jim McNally as

assistants, and commented that
the status of Bob Geiger and Sam
Sanders, also two holdovers from
Urich-days, would be clarified
within the week.
Deming graduated from
Colgate in 1957, earning a BA in
natural sciences, and went to
Houston as freshman coach and
varsity backfield assistant upon
graduation. After a year in the Air
Force Reserves, Deming rejoined
the Houston staff until accepting
an assignment with the Bulls in
April, 1959.

Defensive specialist
In 1959 and 1960, Deming
coached both offensive and
defensive backs, finally
concentrating on defense from
1961 to 1965 under Offenhamer.
When Urich became head coach in
1966, Deming remained defensive
backfield coach and also became
the game plan formulator.
The need for a progressive

athletic program, serving students,
university, the alumni, and the
community was stressed by the
coach. “Students, their conduct
and contribution, are the
backbone of a dignified
institution, and most definitely
this applies to Buffalo.
Now, more than ever, we need
the help and encouragement of
the students. They are setting the
daily tempo, and through an
active athletic program I would

Buffalo’s achievement and future.
I am confident that once we move
to our new campus facilities, we

will all be tremendously proud in
the part we played in keeping the
athletic program alive in spite of
some present obstacles.”
Meyerson pledges support
Deming was introduced by
President Martin Meyerson, who
described Deming as “a man who
has the vigor to combine both
offense and defense...possessing
the high esteem of the team and
all of us.”
Mr. Meyerson pledged full
support of the University athletic
program, indicating that “athletics
should be on a comparable scale
to academics at this University.
We’ve got to work together in
financing and scheduling so that
we can develop the best possible
facilities at the new University.”
In response to the question of
what would happen to athletics if
the present $11-a-year athletic fee
is not raised to $25 a year in the
upcoming referendum, Meyerson
said that that would be
comparable to a nation planning
in the event it loses the next war.
However, he expressed his
optimism for the re-establishment
of the $25 athletic fee. “With the
enthusiasm generated by students
in the last few weeks, I hope a
responsible decision comes out.
I’m hoping that the students, who
have been given the responsibility
by the state to support their own
athletic program will respond
positively. The students are an
autonomous force on this campus.
I trust them and let’s see what
wisdom they can show in the
coming referendum.”

encounter with Baltimore.

The Blue and White of Buffalo

came alive in the second half of
this contest, after trailing 33-30 at
the end of the first stanza. The
lead changed hands several times
after intermission with the count
being notched at 57-all with less
than five minutes remaining. This
proved, however, to be the Bulls’
last gasp as the LeMoyne cagers
outscored the Serfmen 11-5 in the
stretch to take the decision.
Free-throw advantage
The story of the game was
written at the free-throw line,
where Buffalo managed only six
of 11 charity tosses to the
Dolphins’ 14 of 27. The Bulls

out-gunned LeMoyne

Our two latest losses, to Niagara and Buffalo State, have certainly
been bitter pills to swallow. I strongly feel that these losses are not
indicative of the team’s strength.
In both these defeats we did an outstanding job in dominating the
boards against teams superior to us in height and weight. The deciding
factor in both losses were the breaks of the game
determined by
bounces of the ball and officials' judgements.
-

Bad breaks
In the Buffalo State contest we had several excellent opportunities
to put the game away, but the ball refused to go through the hoop for
us. Our execution against State was good and the type of shot we took
was in easy scoring range and without pressure, but we hit a cold spell
for some ten minutes where it seemed as though every shot we took
hung on the rim and dropped out. There’s not too much you can do
when that happens.
Another factor that hurt our cause in the State game was the foul
situation we were in.
State was in the one-and-one for the last ten minutes of the
ballgame while we never reached this situation. This put us at an
extreme disadvantage, especially near the end of regulation time when
Steve Nelson and John Vaughan had free throws, and in overtime
when Ed Eberle had a charity toss when we trailed 79-77.
This peculiar foul situation made it profitable for State to foul us.
They could risk giving up one point in return for a possible two points
on a basket.

Waxman

out for season
The loss of Steve Waxman for the season due to illness is certainly
a tremendous setback to the team. It is very difficult to lose the team’s
leading scorer
this absence leaves a big gap to nil. We all wish Steve a
very speedy recovery to good health
that is our main concern.
We’ve had to make some quick adjustments due to Waxman's
absence, moving Bobby Williams from guard to forward. Both Williams
and Bobby Nowak have done fine jobs in their efforts to fill the gap
caused by Waxman’s loss.
Our schedule for the remaining week and a half of the season is
the meatiest, with games just about every other day. This presents a
tremendous challenge to the team, a challenge we are eager to meet.
We have two more home dates remaining, against Baltimore
tomorrow and our traditional rivals Rochester, Tuesday. Sandwiched
in between these home contests are games with Rutgers and Stony
Brook, a total of four games in eight days. This makes for a real fast
finish.
-

Eberle, Nowak finishing careers
We would appreciate a fine turnout for the Baltimore and
Rochester games, especially in lieu of the fact that these will be the
last home performances of two men who have given so much in their
Buffalo careers
Ed Ebcrle in four years of freshman and varsity
competition and Bob Nowak in two years of varsity competition after
his transfer from Erie Tech. These two fine gentlemen are deserving of

“Pretty Poison” follows in the
spine-chilling tradition of Ingmar
Bergman’s “Personna” and
Roman Polanski’s “Repulsion” in
its handling of psychological
abnormality as the plot
motivation. Set in the New
England area, the film displays a
psychopathic couple engaged in
murder and sabotage under the
pretext of acting out a James
Bondian fantasy.
Although it lags in parts due to
a preoccupation with scenery and
cliches, there is a great deal of
credibility in the parts played by
Anthony Perkins and Tuesday
Weld.

Too often it is those who play
at society’s games, and in this case
society’s heroic fantasies, that
wreak havoc and destruction.
Here is a good argument for the

“Pretty Poison” is one of the
interesting products of a new

trend in Hollywood cinema. It is
the extension of Alfred
Hitchcok’s suspense without the
theatrical mechanisms. The
characters are meant to shock but
only in the context of an
everyday environment, which is
implicitly protested against in the
film.
In this starchy, dull New
England town, a high school
tenny-bopper finds a fool
obsessed with an uncontrollable
imagination and uses him to gain
ends to her ambitious daydreams.
What results is a non-heroic
Bonnie and Clyde. Although they
accomplish the same destructive
mood as Bonnie and Clyde, the
characters in “Pretty Poison” have
none of the redeeming qualities of
the legendary figures.

payrollee into in assisting her in

amorality of the characters is
chilling when the movie-goer
realizes how reflective it is in all
of us.
Special mention must be given
to Tony Perkins. Once again he
has displayed his babyish face on
the screen to deceive us. Although
not the invert he was in “Psycho,”
his mental state in “Pretty
Poison” is not much of an
improvement. One must not

Closed doors

Work needed for College A

We’ve sensed for quite a while that most city politicians
don’t love us. In recent months, instead of ignoring us, some
of them have gone out of their way to say how much they
despise us. Thus, we felt strangely honored when we found
out last week that some of them are afraid of us.
A Spectrum reporter was ejected from a nteeting of the
University District Democratic Club last week after he was
asked to identify himself. The highlight of the meeting
which followed the closing of the doors was a scheduled
address by Buffalo Police Narcotics Squad Head Michael
Ahiico.
Community papers had announced that the meeting was
to be “open to the public.” It would be a waste of energy,
however, to sclf-righteously denounce the local Democrats’
action as some sort of violation of “freedom of the press” or
of “the right to free inquiry.” Establishment politics, from
the doors of Buffalo’s City Hall to the smoke-filled rooms of
Miami Beach to the streets of Chicago, rely on closed doors
to gain as well as sustain their political power.
The most important thing to note about this incident is
that it occurred at a meeting of the University District
Democratic Club. It is quite clear that the meeting was
“open” except for someone from the University, or more
specifically, the University newspaper. Faculty and
administrators who plead with us to work within the system
(even after Chicago) should either practice what they preach,
or else join with students in establishing an alternative
'system.' The mentality represented by *the University
District Democratic Club seems to represent everything but
the University. If work-within-the-system advocates in the
University can not even take the trouble to assert themselves
in their local political organizations, we suggest some serious
political soul-searching is in order.

Two different worlds
Two Army privates have been among the first to be
sentenced in the “mutiny” trial in San Francisco. The
penalties, imposed upon them for participating in a sit-down
protest of the murder of a fellow-prisoner, were 14 and 16
years of hard labor.
That’s justice. Army-style. A similar protest in the
civilian world would have resulted in a $50 fine.
Thus nearly every young man in this country is being
forced to experience two judicial systems: one of them
unjust because of its inconsistency and inefficiency; the
other unjust in a frighteningly consistent and efficient
manner.
Injustice is hard enough to overcome in the former,
civilian, example, where there are constitutional provisions
for just procedure and appeal. In the latter, military,
example, justice is redefined into extinction.

The Option Play

point of order
by Randall T. Eng
Human life has never Jveein particularly sacred to
the military. In fact, military success has usually
been measured in the toll of human lives taken
(body counts, kill ratios, etc.). The armed forces
have little tolerance for a leader who places human
life above tactical goals. Commander Lloyd Bucher
of the Pueblo is currently testing that doctrine. The
results will certainly shake the military for some

student self-determination of courses. Fred Snell,
master of College A, and an able staff of student
assistants are the embryo of the new university
small-college concept.
The experiment will only succeed with the
desires and hard work of each class member pulling
together, I hope that the citizens of the College A
community will keep this in mind as they undertake
this new task. The need for change in our
educational system is evidenced by the recent
passage of academic changes by the Faculty Senate.
1 consider myself very fortunate to be a member
of this group and I hope that everyone in the
University will take an interest in our work. With
this step forward, the State University of Buffalo,

educational advancement. Only with the toil and
support of many people will succeeding generations
of freshmen be able to enjoy the fruits of this noble

with Commander Bucher’s predicament. Both parties
have violated some of the sacred traditions of the
military. It is significant that the canons of the
military are being challenged both in and out of
uniform.
The proceedings which are now taking place in
Coronado, Calif, provide a unique opportunity to
examine certain facets of an armed service during
wartime. This occasion comes rarely, and it would be
wise not to overlook the Navy’s soiled wash which is
now coming into view. The sacred cows of the
military establishment tend to become more sacred
during periods of conflict. This undemocratic
attitude should terminate once and for all.

Buffalo Nine: on trial today

leaders of the country who

a simple matter to drag the people
along, whether it is a fascist
dictatorship, a democracy, or a
parliament. Voice or no voice, the
people can always be brought to the
bidding of the leaders. That is easy.
All you have to do is tell them they
are being attacked, and denounce the
pacifists for lack of patriotism and
exposing the country to danger. It
works the same in every country.”

The signs read: “Christ not
Communism” and “Keep Marx out of the
Church.” It was the night of Aug. 7, 1968.
Two draft resisters had just taken symbolic
sanctuary in the Unitarian Universalist
Church on Elmwood Ave. and already the
counter-protesters were mobilizing.
Lack of Patriotism? Exposing the
country to danger? Bruce Beyer and Bruce
Cline had burned a federal court order
served them for draft evasion earlier in the
day, and the threat to America was clear.
Two days later another group of vigilant
citizens made an appearance
this one
without signs. They fired a rifle from a
speeding car at a group of children and
anti-war youths in front of the church.
On the 19th, the FBI, federal marshalls
and the Buffalo police arrived. The meeting
was over; the Buffalo Nine was formed.
A moving police wedge battled
spectators in the doorway and then moved
down the center aisle towards where Bruce
Beyer continued to speak from the pulpit.

One agent held the arrest warrant up to
Beyer and Cline while two others mounted
the pulpit behind Beyer and attempted to

handcuff him.

A group of agents managed to bring
Beyer to the floor where he was kicked in

the head and beaten with clubs. Bruce
Cline was handcuffed and pinned to the
floor.
The charges against them: refusing to
report for induction. Bruce Beyer was also
charged with assaulting a federal marshall;

only symbolic. It was a place in which to
wait for the cops to come.
But what happened during that week in
August to turn an act of conscience of two
young men into the club-swinging,
arrest-laden melee it became? The answer
lies buried not too deeply in the events
spanning the 12 days from the time Cline
and Beyer entered the Unitarian
Universalist Church to the night they were
arrested.
Theirs was not a lonely vigil. For more
than a week before the police descent on
Aug. 19, a “liberated community” had
been set up by college and high school
students at the church site. Occasionally
too festive for the circumstances, it did
serve as a gathering point for hundreds of
community youths and adults with
anti-war sympathies who wanted to
demonstrate support for the stand of Beyer
and Cline.

Veteran speaks
Students and professors used the steps
of the church as a rostrum for political
speeches, poetry readings, rallies and folk
singing.

Mrs. Kevin Ferber, whose son Michael is
a co-defendant in the Spock draft
conspiracy case, spoke. Folk-singer Judy
Collins arrived on Aug. 12 to show her
support.
But these could have easily been

What was harder to tolerate were tirades
such as those of Bruce Cline’s brother,
David, Specialist Fourth Class, home on
leave from Ft. Hood, Texas. David is a
Vietnam war veteran who was wounded
twice while overseas. And when he spoke,
it was not to echo the Pentagon line.
“I was there. I saw the suffering and the
misery the Vietnamese people are going
through because of this unjust war. The
United States has no right to be in Vietnam
and the Vietnamese people do not want us
to be there.
“1 am taking this stand at the church
with my brother and Bruce Beyer because I
support what they are doing 100%. This
war has to stop for the sake of humanity
and because the American people must
establish a new and decent society. They
cannot do this as long as the inhuman and
illegal war in Vietnam is going on.”

The Student Judiciary
in what many regard as its first
constitutional case
will consider today a complaint lodged
by Bruce Marsh, an undergraduate student, against Student
Association President Richard Schwab.
-

Marsh notes in his
that the Student
Association constitution defines
membership as “all regularly
enrolled undergraduate students.”
Polity rules, he points out, define
membership as “all regularly
enrolled daytime students.”
The complaint contends that
“all legislation passed by the
Polity since the institution of
these polity rules should be null
and void, and the election of New
Student Affairs Coordinator on
Oct. 14, 1968 be called void since
freshmen (non-daytime) were
refused voting privileges.”
It also states: “Richard Schwab
is responsible for these
discrepancies,” claiming “that he,
as president, has gravely shirked
the duties of his office in an

Mr.

complaint

irresponsible

manner.”

Mr. Marsh’s action stems from
events which occurred during the
first Polity meeting in September.

To Mr. Marsh’s charge at that time
that “polity rules are in direct
violation of the Constitution,”
Mr. Schwab suggested that Mr.
Marsh take his constitutional
objection to the Student
Judiciary.

He did so, filing a complaint
Oct: 29. According to Student
Judiciary Secretary Carole
Osterer, no action was taken until
recently because “Mr. Marsh
didn’t have any case. He only
recently produced a copy of the
constitution.”
Indicating that he expects
“some kind of condemnation of
Mr. Schwab” from the Judiciary,
Marsh termed his
Mr.
constitutional point “petty in a
way.” But, he added that “the
situation as it is now is dangerous
to the rest of the University.”
Mr. Marsh explained that the
recent recall effort against Mr.
Schwab was a “bad way to resolve

grievances. I want to prove a point
that the best way to clean up
difficulties is through the courts.”
Mr. Schwab feels that Mr.
Marsh’s action is a “good
precedent to set. It’s the first
time, to my knowledge, that a

constitutional

been

brought before the Student

Judiciary.
“As a loose constructionist I
interpreted the constitution the
way I felt was right. The
consequences of interpreting it

the other way would have been
grave.”
“The ‘fathers of the
constitution’ have made it clear
they meant daytime students,"
Mr. Schwab continued. “The
preamble specifieds ‘daytime
undergraduate students.' I don’t
believe anything more serious
than a typing error was involved
in the wording of the
Constitution.”
Mr. Schwab indicated that he
took Mr. Marsh’s complaint as a

constitutional issue. “I don’t
interpret it as a personal attack on
me,” he said,

�Children riot in Karachi
KARACHI (UPI)
Riot police battled
hundreds of thousands of barefoot
children, students and workers who
swarmed through Karachi streets during a
free swinging a n t i-g o ve rnment
demonstration.
Government forces and sympathetic
Pathan tribesmen waded into thousands of
street urchins armed with sticks in the
Karachi suburb of Lasbella where six
persons were reported killed and seven
more wounded.
In the adjacent suburb Lalukhet. mobs
began at least'three fires. Veiled women
lined overhanging balconies screaming
encouragement to children in the streets
below who began to chant: “Ayub Kutta
Ayub President Mohammed
Hai Hai;
Ayub Khan is a dog; yes.”
-

The riot was triggered when the mob
took to the streets in support of a general
strike called by the combined right and
leftwing opposition parties. The politicians
demanded an end to the state of
emergency imposed during the
Indp-Pakistan war in September 1965,
release of political prisoners and
constitutional reform to end the one party
rule in Pakistan.
Ayub Khan announced in Rawalpindi
that he will lift the state of emergency

Monday.
Fighting

was reported fiercest in
where one mob seized the
possessions of Ali Kauser, leader of Ayub
Khan’s ruling Moslem League, and burned
them in the streets.

National
Guardsmen used tear gas grenades and
fixed bayonets to scatter crowds of
rebellious student strikers at the University
of Wisconsin. Riot police hurled tear gas
canisters to break up a milling crowd of
students on the Duke University campus.
On another campus troubled by student
revolt, about 150 club-wielding police
made repeated sweeps through chanting,
screaming militants at the University of
California at Berkeley.
Wisconsin Gov. Warren P. Knowles, who
sent 900 Guardsmen onto the Wisconsin
campus at Madison, called an additional
1200 militiamen to duty in a determined
effort to keep the University open for
classes.
Negro students seized the main floor of
the Duke
University administration
building and held it for nearly ten hours,
threatening to set school records afire with
kerosene if their demands were not met or
if police were sent in.
A wild melee broke out on the grassy
quadrangle at the center of the campus
after the black students, surrounded and
protected by friendly white students,
walked out of the building and marched
down the main campus street.
Police unleashed canisters of tear gas at
the crowd of about 1000 while students.

Israel retaliates against Jordan
JERUSALEM (UPI)
Two Israeli
fighter-bombers swept into Jordan and
attacked gun emplacements reported to
have fired on an Israeli border patrol. A
Jerusalem communique said the Arab
weapons were “silenced.”
In Amman, the Jordanian military
command said Israeli planes dropped
napalm fire bombs in two raids lasting 50
minutes on the As-Shuna area six miles
south of the Sea of Galilee.
The Amman report said there were no
casualties, but that the jellied gasoline
bombs destroyed crops in the area.
The Israeli account of the air raids made
no mention of napalm. It said the planes
hit Jordanian positions from which a
bazooka shell was fired at an Israeli patrol
easl of Gesher in the northern part of the
Beisah River Valley.
-

Israeli forces suffered no casualties and
both planes returned safely, the Jerusalem
account said.
Meanwhile, police in Jerusalem took
strict security precautions to prevent
renewed anti-Israeli demonstrations by
Arabs.
Policemen took up positions atop the
walls of the old city which Israel annexed
after the war in June 1967 as Moslem
worshippers went to pray. Other police
patrolled streets and stood in front of
Omar Mosque during noontime prayers.
There were no incidents.

Quiet was also reported on the west
bank of the Jordan River and the Gaza
Strip, making it the first day in two weeks
that there were no anti-Israeli
demonstrations in occupied Arab territory.

Before the Negroes left the barricaded
Duke building in Durham,- N.C., the
University had issued an ultimatum to
them to clear out and had assembled more
than 70 law officers to enforce the order.
It also had announced suspension of all
the black students in the building and said
they would be subject to criminal
prosecution if they did not get out at once.
At Berkeley, police arrested at least
three dozen dissidents in a series of minor
scuffles and broke up picket lines trying to
block the main campus thoroughfare.
About 1000 students tossed books and
firecrackers and taunted officers with
chants, catcalls and obscenities. Student
lines reformed as quickly as police marched
through them.
More than 75 Negro and Puerto Rican
students took over a City College
administration building in New York City
to enforce demands for recognition of the
needs of minority groups.
The students left voluntarily about four
hours later. Police were on the scene. There
were no incidents.
At Wisconsin, the Guardsmen on the
scene appeared to have succeeded in
bringing a semblance of order to the tense
campus as they kept dissidents moving and
thwarted attempts to block traffic on
University Avc., the school’s main stem.

A six-man court martial board returned
its verdict against Pvt. Nesrey Sood, 26, of

It was the first time the National Guard was used on a
college campus. Gov. Warren Knowles’ solution to the strike
at the University of Wisconsin further emphasized the
breakdown of academic sanctity.

Over the weekend, the
dissidents attempted to disrupt a
Wisconsin-Ohio State basketball
game. Police mobilized within 15
minutes after the plans were
disclosed, and effectively blocked
the gates.
A white student explained the
need for white participation: ‘‘It

Willie Edwards, a black leader,

�Campus unrest flares in Michigan

The Michigan legislature will conduct inquiries into
"subversive” campus activities in the midst of a period of
turmoil at the state universities there.

Protests have been staged
concerning the academic issues of
course requirements and
professors’ tenure, and the
further
community has been
incensed by allegedly obscene
dramatic productions on campus.
At the University of Michigan
at Ann Arbor, a Radical Caucus
was formed to pressure the
faculty into eliminating language
requirements at the literary
college. The students warned the
faculty that they would sit in if
no action was taken.
The students held a mass
meeting and voted to hold an
all-day nondisruptive sit-in at the
dean’s office to support their
demands. This was intended to

a direct confrontation
between students and faculty and
to use the dean as a sympathetic

intermediary.
If the faculty takes unfavorable
action on the language

requirement when they do finally
meet, the students will stage a
class boycott. They have formed a
literary college student union.
After rejecting proposals by the
radicals for a disruptive sit-in, the
students decided to hold a
referendum on the requirements.

‘Obscene’ Dionysus
The same week of the language
sit-in, during the final days of
January, community police
warned the University Activities
Center that they might take
action on the planned production
of the play “Dionysus in ‘69” in
Ann Arbor.
“Dionysus” is an updated
“Bacchae,” a tragedy by
Euripides, which has played in
off-off Broadway and on two
other campuses. It uses the
techniques of audience
participation and often direct
assault, including removal of

clothing

and physical
confrontation. It*'was banned at
the University of Minnesota after
a production at which two
members of the audience stripped.
The Ann Arbor police,
claiming to have received a
complaint from a resident, said
that they intended to find out
whether the play involved
“obscene words,” whether the
cast did “assault” the audience,
and whether the alledged nudity
constituted indecent exposure.
University President Robben
Fleming
defended
the
performance, at the same time
warning that “the University is
not a sanctuary; therefore the law
applies on campus.” He said that
the context determined obscenity,
since “the human body is hardly
obscene.” The play was
performed in Detroit on Saturday

However, the following day it

it because of the
tremendous student uproar it may
create on the campuses. Also,
many legislators have pointed out
that State University dormitory
fees recently were increased and
that a simultaneous tuition
increase would be a great burden
on students.
Henrik Dullea, assistant to
University president Martin
Meyerson explained that the
administration office has not
heard of any definite proposal for
a tuition increase.
He indicated, however, that he
“would not be surprised to see
some legislation put through to
increase the tuition.”
Construction costs, salaries and
expenses in general have risen
during the years, while tuition has
remained the same, Mr. Dullea
noted.
He asserted that the
administration will not take
action until such a proposal has
been passed.
If the State Board of Trustees
does increase the tuition, Mr
Dullea contends that students
then should organize campaigns to
support an increase in financial
assistance rather than decreased
tuition fees.

has terrorized children on the
screen for two generations.
Who was the monster? Was he
man or demon? No, he was a
mild-mannered English stage actor
named William Henry Pratt
catapulted to fame by uttering
grunts and groans while under
pounds of make-up.
Pratt, better known as Boris
Karloff, had reached out his hand
and established an institution that
was to lead him down the paths of
cinematic villainary.
Bom in London, Karloff was
christened on Nov. 23, 1887. His
father was a public official serving
in India and it was only proper
that his son would follow in his
footsteps. Hence, young William
was sent to the Merchant Taylors’
School, at Uppingham and finally
to London University for his
education.
“Never knew my father. No,
never did. Died when I was a
baby. I was brought up by my

brothers. Only one still survives.”
So, Karloff commented on his
early years.

Diversified roles
Things didn’t go so well for the
young man

and he dipped his

fingers into a variety of different
occupations. He was a truck
driver, a laborer and finally, in
1910 became an actor. His first
stage performance was, oddly
enough, in “The Devil.” He didn’t
play the role of Satan, but that of
a banker. While in these early days
it was known that he played
one-hundred different roles in one
year.

Somewhere along the years he
changed his name. When
questioned as to his name

changing Karloff commented:
“Well, I didn’t think Pratt a
terribly good stage name, so I
changed it to Karloff. It’s a
remote name on my mother’s
side. It’s been a very fortunate
name for me, a lucky name.” And
so it was.

French villian
In his third cinematic
adventure he had a featured part
as a villainous French-Canadian
fur trapper in “The Deadlier Sex.”
It was Karloff’s first important
screen role and the first of a long
line of assorted villains.
But his long career was to
really begin its uphill jaunt when
he starred in “The Criminal
Code.’Tt was here that his talents
were eyed by Universal Pictures.
There have been many
conflicting theories as to how
Karloff was discovered to play the
important foie
of the
Frankenstein monster for
Universal. In a recent interview he
finally told the “official” story:
“What really happened was
this: I’d been in a play in Los
Angeles called ‘The Criminal
Code,’ It was sent out from New
York with four or five parts to be
cast locally, and I had the luck to
get one that was very showy small, but it was very showy and
well spotted in the play. I think
James Whale (director of the
Frankenstein) saw it. A few
months later it was filmed.

His roles were numerous and
his manner villainous in every
respect. He coagulated the blood
of his fans and cohorts in films
like The Body Snatchers,
Corridors of Blood and Island of
Lost Souls, Yet he rebelled
strenuously against the word
“horror” and hated what modem
moviemakers were doing in their
perverting of the terror film:
“Horror
it spells revulsion,
the idea of terror is to make the
hair of the audiences stand on
end, not to make them lose their
breakfast,” Karloff commented.

Other monsters
Yet the King was captive to his
midas touch. He was a grave
robber and ghoul. In “Tower of
London” he was very convincing
as
Mord the club-footed
executioner who relished slaying
his victims with a broadaxe. He
cheated the hangman in “The Man
They Could Not Hang” and as the
ancient Im-Ho-Tep was
mummified and came back to life
through an ancient incantation to
reap violence on the modem
world.

He was the cold, calculating
villain of Sax Roehmers’ “Mask of
Fu-Manchu” and in his later years
he played the monster in H.P.
Lovecraft’s "Color Out of Space,”
retitled for the flicks, “Die
Monster Die."

All this was for the
mild-mannered man who enjoyed
cultivating his green thumb by
growing radishes in a home garden
and reading gentle tales to
children at bedtime.

back to the revue (“Cole Porter Revisited”); the farce
(“The Coconuts” and “Boys from Syracuse”); double-edged nostalgia
(“Dames at Sea” and “Singing in the Rain”), and colossally irreverent
satire (“Hair”).
But to return to “Funny Girl:” The greater part of the film isn’t
really film at all, but a pastiche of memorable fragments from
Streisand television specials. This is fine for those of us who missed
them, but rather discouraging if we expected the camera to do more
than follow her around.
Occasionally one of her more fortunate co-stars gets to share a few
frames with her, but when this happens one can be sure he won’t be
given much dialogue, and that the dialogue he is given won’t be any
good. Barbra, being the funny girl, gets all the funny lines.
Omar Sharif, in his first major walk-on since “Dr. Zhivago,” smiles
endlessly, waiting for those periodic close-ups when he can gaze
attentively at the camera and display luminous eyes for the benefit of
countless female admirers. And, of course, Kay Medford is on hand,

complete with nasal whine and appropriate hand gestures.

incompetent lyricist.
“People - people who need people
are the luckiest people in
the world, etc.” However sentimental one is by nature, it should be
difficult not to blanch at such magnificent obtuseness.
The one unqualified smash song in the show from every
standpoint, “Don’t Rain on My Parade,” is chopped up and virtually
destroyed 'in one of the sloppiest montage sequences I’ve ever seen. I
have no complaint with the way the ensemble numbers were handled. I
only wish there had been more of them, and less of the new house, the
fat harpies playing cards, the Arnsteins’ first baby and the ludicrous
moral disintegration scenes.
The most intriguing problem I’ve encountered with “Funny Girl"
is in deciding what William Wyler’s contribution was. He certainly
didn’t direct Streisand. (No one but Streisand will ever direct
Streisand.) The rest of the cast performed like malfunctioning wind-up
toys, so one can hardly point to his efforts there.
As I mentioned previously, Wyler’s camera never really opens
things up; it just keeps zooming in and out on the super-star. Finally,
he had nothing at all to do with the musical sequences. Perhaps
someone who liked the film can explain it to me.

Hockey League by clobbering the
Cardinals 13-2 Thursday night
before a crowd of 300 in
Rochester, New York.
The

Rude awakening
For SJ. John’s it

was a rude
awakening to the rigors of stepped
up competition. The Cardinals,

who abandoned the Rochester
Metro League to become the
FLHL’s eleventh team, were
completely outclassed by Buffalo
and they knew it.
“We just don’t have the skaters
to keep up with Buffalo,” said
Jack McCan, St. John’s coach,
after the game. “The Bulls are the
best club we’ve seen this year.”
But despite McCan’s words of
praise, it was quite obvious that
the Bulls were not giving a 100
percent effort. At times the Bulls
looked as sloppy and lethargic as
their hosts. Especially in the first
period, the action looked like
slow motion personified.
“It’s tough to put out your
best effort in a game like this,”
said Tom Caruso, Buffalo winger
who scored two goals. “You tend

(

to play like your opposition.”

Scoring parade
Bob Bundy led the Buffalo
scoring parade with four goals,
while captain Billy Newman, Bob
Albano, and Caruso chipped in
with two tallies apiece. Bob
Goody, Len DePrima, and Jim
McKown completed the Bulls’
scoring with a goal apiece.
Ray Wischmeyer opened the
scoring for St. John’s at the
six-minute mark of the first stanza
by rebounding a short-backhander
past a surprised Mike Dunn.

However, before the end of the
Bob Bundy had scored
twice, and DePrima, Newman, and
Caruso once each to give the Bulls
a 5-1 lead.
Bob Albano opened the second
period for the Bulls at 2:30 by
jamming a five-footer into the St.
John’s nets. Bundy then made it
7-1 by connecting on a rebound
from a scramble in front of the
Cardinal goal. Hugh Randle
managed to slam in a long shot for
St. John’s, but Bundy, Bob
Goody, and Newman scored in
quick succession for the Bulls
giving Buffalo an insurmountable
10-2 lead.
period

Pressure maintained

The third period was played
almost exclusively in the St.
John’s end of the rink. Only some
extraordinary goaltending by the
St. John’s fetminder and a bevy
of missed shots by the Buffalo
icers kept the score down. Tom
Caruso scored the Bulls’ eleventh
goal at 11:42 of the third period,
and Jim McKowne and Bob
Albano rounded out the scoring
just minutes later.
Defeating St. John’s boosted
the Bulls overall season record to
12-2, with an 8-1 record in league
play. The Cardinals, who play
only league games, are now 4-3
for the year..

Ice Chips: For one of the few
times this season, every player saw
considerable action. Paul Kubiak,
a reserve defenseman, picked up
his first point of the season. He
assisted on Tom Caruso’s first
goal.

DeFoe, veteran Bull
defenseman, played only the first
period. DeFoe, suffering from a
bad cold as well as a bruised left
hand, complained that he had

Special to The Spectrum

A funny thing happened to me on the way to
Buffalo; I caught a malignant disease called
stereotyping. Though it is a very common and
contagious disease, it has no known symptoms or
cures. My inability to immunize myself from its
dread effects has caused me to try to squeeze four
years of living into about a day-and-a-half.
I am a big, dumb animal. If it were possible to
toss this whole bag of gibberish back into your face I
would, but I guess I am kind of big. However, I do
resist being called dumb and an animal.
This is the euphemistic conception of a football
player that prevails on campus. (We have been called
much worse things.)

Sterotype origins

All this big, dumb animal prattle must have

started with the birth of professional football in the
early I900’s. Chances were good that a football

player then would have little education and generally
toil in a menial capacity when not playing the game.
The advent of colleges and universities and the
continuing emphasis on education changed all this.
The university began to act as a type of service
station for the professional leagues, providing them
with a much different type of player
one who if
he were not articulate was at least college trained. (I
am sure I will get the “attendance certificate for a
diploma” as an argument for this statement.)
However, I am not so unrealistic that I believe
all football players to be conscientious and
competent scholars. Many aren’t. But again, I am not
inclined to think that most “normal” students are
always conscientious and competent either.
Stereotypes may be trusted to a certain point.
They often can approach the near truth in a
situation, but never the absolute. To say that a
Negro is submissive or that a Jewish person has an
uncommon passion for education can only be
considered valid in the respect that you have found a
common denominator to type a group.
-

Individual’s uniqueness
It is still the uniqueness of the individual that
counts in every case and we should be pure enough
to really know a person before we pass judgment.
Being unusually large and having the benefit of
public exposure (through pictures in game programs
and newspapers), the football player is living in a
preconceived spotlight. He has an image already built
for him (big, dumb, animal), and the option to play
the role or not.
Give me an image which I find fun to live up to
and I will probably flourish its growth. This is why I
(as the typed football player) throw garbage in the
cafeteria, tliis is why I carry on with uninhibited
abandon when a good looking girl walks by, this is

I am in no sense trying to supply a psychological
justification for undesirable behavior, but rather
suggesting that the athlete, being a ready-made focal
point of attention, plays scapegoat for other
elements of campus life that convey the same type
of “mob spirit” but escape ridicule because of a less
advanced billing A predisposed mind often causes us
to see only what we want to see.

Black separatism

..

As bulletins from Wisconsin, Duke, Berkeley and
elsewhere interrupted him, Roy Innis, director of the
Congress of Racial Equality, outlined in Washington Friday a
plan for black separatism.
The demonstrations and the speech were not unrelated,
for it is the demands for separatist Black Studies programs
which have been the newest focal points of student
rebellions.
Mr. Innes, co-publisher of the New York newspaper, The
Manhattan Tribune, made some valuable clarifications and
redefinitions of some terms, for the benefit not only of the
thousand student editors present but also for educators and
students across the country.
Black power is the pragmatic method for the
implementation of the goals of black nationalism.
Black nationalism is the desire of an oppressed people to
separate themselves from their oppressors. Involved in this is
the implicit goal of self-determination “by any means
possible.” Colonized peoples have recognized the need for
this ‘nationalism’ for centuries and America’s small black
are, distinct from other ethnic groups, a colonized people.
Segregation is a condition where two peoples occupy the
same area but live divided from each other with one people
controlling all the social, political and economic structures.
Integration is an attempted solution to the problems of
racism by eliminating barriers to, for example, jobs, housing
and education. This, however, is a perfect example of what
deTocqueville called the “tyranny of the majority,” for the
colonized people still have no control over the businesses,
the governments, or the schools. Integration is merely
another cover-up for white racism.
Separation is “area control.” It differs from segregation
of apartheid in a major way; The colonized people have
control over their ethnic region. It is not a case of walls
being created, but rather a case of people organizing
themselves in the safest, most honest, most pragmatic way to
maximize their group self-interests and minimize the chance
of inter-group conflict.
Young blacks, as well as young whites, are beginning to
recognize the value of these assumptions. Liberal dismissals
of such black proposals fail to recognize that previous
attempts to solve America’s race problem have merely been
exe'rcises in liberal self-flagellation.
People who warn of “racism in reverse” fail to recognize
the crucial factor of control. “Separate but equal” was a
myth in the South, not because blacks could not learn
without white teachers, but because whites still controlled
the school systems.
The solution to the common problem of white racism
requires separate solutions. We have our thing, blacks must
have theirs.

Buffalo.
I was scheduled for graduation Feb. 12. Feb. 10,
I called Admissions and Records in order to request
a statement of my graduation, which I needed fora
position as a substitute teacher. I was quietly told
that I was not graduating. The person in A and R
informed me that the English Department (my
undergraduate major) stated I had not met the
requirements of the department.
I called the English Department and managed to
get an appointment with George Levine. He
informed me, after I waited 40 minutes after the
appointed time of my meeting, that I did not have
the 30 hours of upper-division English which was
required. My calculations showed that I had 31
hours of 300 and 400 level courses.
Through investigation it was discovered that the
record of the spring semester of 1968 was never sent
by A and R to the English Department. In other
words, the six hours of English I had taken that
semester had never been recorded with the English
Department.

Well, the problem was straightened out, but
there are three questions I can’t ignore.

To the editor:

Anyway, there recently fell into my hands a
memorandum prepared for a film unit from
Paramount that is now in South America shooting
the final scenes of the motion picture version of

“The Adventurers.”
This picture, which is based on a best-selling
novel about the jet set, is reported to establish a new
track record for cinematic seductions.
The memo of which I speak explains how to
film these goings-on in such a way as to avoid the
aforementioned problems. Excerpts are offered
below as a typical example of the modem movie
maker’s mind at work:
“Di Coyne’s swimming pool Dax and Caroline
will start in kneeling position on a sun mat at edge of
pool. This will be shot normally, but as they sink
down on the mat for the sexy stuff we ‘purple heart’
it from there.”
“Purple hearting” apparently is a camera trick
that blurs the action.
“Michelle’s bedroom

“Amparo’s bedroom

the student always suffers’

On the first page of the Feb. 5 issue of The
Spectrum appeared an article on the Buffalo Draft
Resistance Union in which one Lenny Klaif was
quoted as saying: “WeTe the only place where
students can go to find out about alternatives to the
Selective Service without paying a private lawyer.”

ThiaHs incorrect.
The Draft Counseling Center of Greater Buffalo
has been in existence for more than a year and has
run from time to time a classified advertisement in
The Spectrum.
The Center provides information regarding legal
alternatives to military service free of charge; it
offers pamphlets, maintains a collection of materials
dealing with Selective Service law, and arranges
appointments for potential draftees with trained
counselors.
The Center has managed to limp along without
requesting funds from student organizations, though
had the idea occurred to the members, I’m sure it
would have been tried. Members look forward to
working with the Resistance in counseling men ot
draft age. Since both groups differ in their
approaches to Selective Service problems, perhaps
the best way to be of service would be to cooperate,
not for each to ignore the existence of the other.

I would like to thank WBFO for broadcasting

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

sessions indicated that real progress toward peace would come only in

MADISON, Wis.
the picturesque University of Wisconsin campus to prevent further
disruptions of classes by black and white militants demanding a black
curriculum and more Negro faculty members.
Gov. Warren Knowles activated the Guardsmen, the first use of a
militia on a northern campus, after a fourth day in which
demonstrators fought with honstriking students and teachers, routed

Shaw trial continues
The
NEW ORLEANS (UPI)
prosecution read to the Clay L. Shaw jury
the opinion of a former coroner, now dead,
that star witness Perry Raymond Russo
was legally sane in September, 1963, when
he allegedly witnessed a plot to kill
President John F. Kennedy.

Kennedy.

-

Dist. Judge Edward A. Haggerty Jr.
permitted the reading of testimony by Dr.
Nicholas J. Chetta, who died since he
testified in a preliminary hearing in March,
1967. The testimony was read over
vigorous objections by the defense that a
two-year-old medical opinion does not
apply today.

Russo, the state’s top witness, testified
that he attended a meeting in which plans
for killing Kennedy were discussed. But
under cross examination, he said the talks
could have been “a bull session” and that
he never heard Shaw agree to any killing.
Shaw is charged with conspiring with
Lee Harvey Oswald and David W. Ferrie,

instructor, to assassinate

reform

Special to The Spectrum
from The Manchester Guardian
Students are not alone in being
disenchanted with our society. The
established order neither fulfills people’s
aspirations nor is sensitive to their
grievances. The political parties are
unpopular; government is seen to be slow,
clumsy, and secretive; and Parliament itself
has come to be distrusted. In that light it is
a mistake to belittle student unrest, even
though the unrest comes from a minority.
The articulate in politics are always a
minority. Here, however, the minority has
been trying to take matters into its own
hands by force. Are these students justified
in doing so? May they not defeat their own
'*
ends?
Much of what the revolutionary
students claim to stand for deserves
sympathy. In rejecting the materialist
values of the consumer society (whether
capitalist or Communist), in resisting
bureaucracy (capitalist or Communist), in
condemning the hypocrisy of the social
structure (capitalist or Communist), they
speak with idealism, indeed with moral
fervour. Their appeal ostensibly is to total
freedom. One London student slogan last
week read; “It is forbidden to forbid.
Everything is permitted.” Of course, that is
naive, utopian and romantic, but it is also
inspiring.
Unhappily the students’ methods have
repelled the sympathy they might have
attracted. The absurdity, not to say
obscurity, of some of their ideology (at
any rate on the Maoist-Anarchist fringe)
has created impatience, but their methods
call for something stronger than
impatience, for they are unacceptable. The
militants reject the recognized processes of
discussion and negotiation, and seek
instead what they call “confrontation,”
They look for violent clashes with
authority as the only way they can make
an impact. Hence political opponents are
to be shouted down, and subjected to
abuse and even to personal violence; to
make a point, property is to be occupied

Asst. Dist. Atty. James L. Alcock told
the court the state was not submitting Dr.
Chetta’s 1967 testimony to buttress
Russo’s credibility, but to rebut defense
efforts to question Russo’s stability. The
defense asked Russo whether he had
attempted suicide and brought out he had
been under psychiatric treatment in the
late I9S0s and psychiatric consulatalion by
telephone as late as 1965.
Chetta’s testimony said that as of 1967
Russo filled all requirements of legal
sanity. In an answer to a hypothetical
question, the doctor said in his opinion
Russo was also sane in 1963.
In a two-day cross-examination, Russo

Paris talks: not a dead end
6

PARIS (UPI) French Foreign Minister
Michel Debre said allied and Communist

negotiators already have entered the stage
of true bargaining at the Vietnam talks.
He urged both sides to secrecy to insure

maximum efficiency.
Debre’s hopeful statement came as the
North Vietnamese, Viet Cong, American
South Vietnamese delegations
completed preparations for the fourth
negotiating session. They are embroiled in
a quarrel
'which issues should be
ar| d

over

“One should not worry too much over
•he slow progress of the negotiations after
great scope of the fighting. But last
Wee k, we saw the start of a true
negotiation,” Debre said.
A similar comment came from South
Vietnamese Vice President Nguyen Cao Ky

and taken over. The exponents of the
technique are autocratic, arrogant and
bullying. To those who remember their
history, this looks all too like the road to
totalitarianism. The student movement
carries too little weight for this to be a
serious threat at present, but it is
dangerous because it could be
counter-productive in the opposite sense
the excesses of relatively small student
demonstrations, such as the LSE affair,
tend to feed the forces of Right-wing
authoritarianism. Even student
revolutionaries should be judged by results,
and when that is the result they should
think again about the wisdom of their
tactics.
-

It is more than a chance paradox that in
Czechoslovakia, students (by the thousand
rather than by the hundred) have been
demonstrating for just those things that the
revolutionary students of democratic
Europe and North America affect to
despise -t for freedom of speech and
opinion, and for democracy. That is what
the students of Spain are struggling for,
too. Freedom, of course, is never absolute,
and democracy is always imperfect, but a
society in which freedom of speech and
opinion is respected, in which the will of
the democracy can express itself, and in
which the rights of the individual are
upheld by a system of law, is a society
greatly envied by those who have the
misfortune to live under totalitarian
Governments and in one-party States.
To build a liberal democracy has taken
centuries. To destroy it could be a matter
of months. We must beware of

undervaluing parliamentary democracy
merely because of its imperfections. The
students are impatient, and they have some
things to be impatient about. But the most
immediate of these concern university
affairs, and most of them are now
beginning to be put right. These grievances
are not so intolerable that they justify a
total assault on the system itself. It, too, is
being reformed.

Monday morning four of the nine persons
arrested in August at the Unitarian Universalist
Church will go on trial in Federal Court.
Facing charges of one or two felony counts for
allegedly assaulting federal marshalls are: Bruce
Beyer, Gerald Gross, Carl Kronberg and Ray Milak.
The four were arrested while attending an anti-war,
anti-draft rally inside the church in support of two
draft resisters who sought symbolic sanctuary there.
This is one of the first times that anti-war
demonstrators have been charged with federal
assault. If convicted, they face a possible three-year
prison sentence and a fine of $5000.
There will be a demonstration of solidarity
with their cause at the courthouse Monday. The
Spectrum will print a special feature on the Buffalo

hearings on the pricing practices
of ghetto supermarkets.
Congressman Rosenthal was
the chief sponsor of a bill to
create a cabinet-level Department
of Consumer Affairs. He also was
author of legislation providing
federal assistance through block
grants to state and local
governments to start or strengthen
local consumer protection offices.
A member of the House since
1962, Mr. Rosenthal also serves
on the Foreign Affairs
Committee. Possessing what is
considered a liberal voting record,
he has opposed the Vietnam War
appropriations.

going Afro part of a complete
change, a black change.
To question going Afro
because you have bad hair is
regressive. If you haven’t gotten
away from the white stigma of
good and bad, then you don’t
know the meaning of going Afro
or what being black is. To justify
your own straight hair to others
by saying “My mother won’t let
me cut it,” is tragic. For in our
revolution, our minds must be
together. Rationalizations and
justifications such as these only
hold us back. The Afro fulfills a
need for a symbol of racial pride
and beauty, since it is our most
distinct physical characteristic.
It is up to each individual how
they wear his or her hair. Just as
some brothers and sisters choose
to wear African garb and others
don’t; so it will be with Afros.
The choice is yours. What we
should really concern ourselves
with Ls our mind. The mental
change and not the physical
change is what’s pertinent. So,
sisters, don’t get uptight about
wearing Afros. Instead, start
believing you got something to
contribute to your black children;
and going Afro is only a small part
of it The mind, sister, the mind!

Q: I am a sophomore. Under the old system of course
requirements, I completed all my basic distribution requirements.
However, under the new basic distribution requirements I still have
twelve hours to complete. Can someone still go under the old system
of requirements?
A: All students who will graduate after September, 1969, must
follow the regulations enunciated under the new Basic Distribution
Requirements. In most instances, a student completing the old
distribution requirements will have already completed the new
distribution requirements. Mrs. J. Cramer, assistant director of
Advisement at University College, suggested that any student who has
a question concerning his status with respect to the new distribution
requirements should contact his or her advisor at University College,
Q: Why does a student employed in a non-profit institution like
State University of New York at Buffalo receive a lower than
minimum wage? The state minimum wage is $1.65 per hour and
students here are paid $1.15 per hour.
A: We checked with the University Personnel Office and the State
and Federal Wage and Hours Offices and learned that the New York
State minimum wage of $ 1.60 does not apply to state institutions; the
Federal minimum, which was raised from $1.15 to $1.30 on Feb, 1,
1969, applies in most instances. Many departments pay a starting wage
of $1.50 or more, depending upon the job and the person’s
qualifications. We know of no department or office which pays less
than the Federal minimum.

Q: What is the regulation on Pass/Fail grades in Graduate School?

Is there an official policy? What is Admissions and Records policy?
A: The Executive Committee of the Graduate School is currently
reviewing ail of its means of evaluating students’ work. During this
interim period, the grading policy is left up to the respective
departments, programs and schools. Thus, at present, the Graduate
School has, no official policy. The Office of Admissions and Records
simply record the grades as presented to them. However, a grade of
Pass is recorded as an “S” and a grade of Fail is recorded as a “U”.

Q: I graduated this past Wednesday. Where and when do I pick up

my diploma?

A: Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Fine Arts graduates pick up
their diplomas in University College in Diefendorf Hall. All other
graduates should contact the office of the Division from which they
earned their degree. Diplomas will be ready after Feb. 24.

Q: I recently noticed camera-like devices in the hallways of
Norton, Crosby, Hayes and Lockwood. Are they television or spying
devices? How long have they been there?

A: Robert Henderson, Business Manager, Norton Hall, informed
us that these mysterious devices constitute an emergency lighting
system. After the infamous Eastern Seaboard power failure, it was felt
that all buildings in the State University system should have an
emergency source of power, and the devices were installed by the
campus maintenance staff about a year and a half ago.

The conference supposedly
dealing with institutionalized
racism at this University was held
at Leisureland March 31 - Feb. 2
in Hamburg. It was directed by
National Student Association staff

members.
Unusual gathering
This was not an ordinary
gathering. Conferences are usually
composed of speeches,
committees, and
workshops.
Almost everyone involved was
surprised and frustrated, because
the three days included a series of
“micro-labs.” These are not like
chemistry or physics labs, but
instead give one the impression of
a sensitivity freak-out .
The weekend began at 3:30
p.m. Friday in a third floor room
in Norton Hall. Barefoot students
formed two concentric,
hand-cpasped circles. The inner
group faced outwards towards an
enclosing chain of people.
The circles revolved until a
member of a unit halted to scan
the interesting face ahead.
Familiar faces brought smiles,
chuckles, and an occasional
playful kick to the shins.
Unknown features invoked a fixed
gaze.

Upon being (old to choose
someone in whomc we hud an
interest, we proceeded to
communicate non-vcrbally.
Finally, wc interviewed our
partner, on the bus, utilizing an
outline dictated by the exercise

leader.

Non-verbal intensity

Notice the progression in the
intensity of the exercises from
sight, to hand signals, gradually
ending in a
structured
conversation. Kach event brought
new senses into focus. There was a
distinct stratification into varioas

A: As stated in a previous column, we canvassed various campus

“No information contained in a student academic file will be available
to anyone whatsoever without his consent
with the exception of
grades, which are given to the student’s parents”. Dean Welch added
that “High School transcripts, scores on various national examinations,
and similar material are on file in the Office of Admissions and

�Visiting professor discusses

“As more and more people
from all over the world visit each
other’s countries, goodwill will be
created by knowing each other,”
explained Tokihiko Shinoda,
newly-arrived Japanese professor
at the State University of Buffalo.
Under the auspices of the
Visiting Asian Professors Project,
Mr. Shinoda will teach “Survey of
Asian Cultures” and a freshman
seminar, “Cultures of Asia”, this
semester.
Indicating that student unrest

in the wake of reforms stretches
worldwide, Mr. Shinoda discussed

“I feel very sympathetic with

Mr. Shinoda’s background in
literature is -accented by his
interest in Somerset Maugham. He
finds, the attraction in “the
Romanticism described in his
novels; a longing for the Pacific or
distant part of the world.”
He recently has completed a
book of Japanese proverbs and
sayings, tentatively to be
published this summer. Previous
publications include several
articles in various professional
journals in Japan.
Presently, Mr. Shinoda’s
interest lies “in a culture exchange
of an anthropological nature.”

opening

International Week, U.S.
Ambassador to NATO Harlan
Cleveland said Monday, that
“withdrawal and anti-commitment ain’t going to be our thing.”
The problems of pollution,
atomic energy control, weather
and population explosion in the
world “are still right here and we
are committed to solve them,” he
indicated.
Ambassador Cleveland pointed
out that American students in the
future will be unique because
“they will know that making a
decent living won’t be a serious
challenge.” He reasoned: “The

United States will be pulled into
future international commitments
by student vitality seeking a
cause.”
He termed the basis for our
foreign involvements as
“commitment avoidance” and
explained that “we involve
ourselves in limited ways to avoid
getting involved in unlimited
ways,”

Mr. Cleveland also stressed that
“the antidote for over-commitment is to get committed
internationally.”

Steinberg and Turtles
by James Brennan
Spectrum Staff Reporter

In the Beginning, God created
Ed Dale. This was for practice,
then He created David Steinberg.
And in His usual over-confidence
He created the Turtles. Even God
can make a mistake.
“riave you ever watched 3000
people come in and pick their
seats?” Thus spoke Ed Dale,
assistant coordinator and jovial
master of ceremonies at last
week’s University Union Activities
Board concert.
Before introducing David
Steinberg, Mr. Dale bantered a
few quick quips to the guffaws
and groans of 3300 people. His
style and delivery are similar to
Woody Allen with a strong speech
emphasis on the “t” sound, and a
good sense of timing in wating for
his jokes to score.
Wearing a yellow turtleneck
and a “Mickey Mouse” watch,
David Steinberg sauntered on
stage, because comic energy such
as his does not just walk on. The
watch was a gift to him from
Groucho Marx, a comedian
Steinberg admires a great deal.
Moses and money
Steinberg’s humor was not all
biblical religious risiblities, he also
aims hit wit at politics,
psychiatrists, and cheerleaders.
With quips like “Richard Nixon’s
face looks like a foot,” he tred on
the present administration, and
jibed in the next joke to a quickie
on Moses.
Of Moses, he said: “When given
the choice of being anything by
God, Moses chose to be all wise.
And after God’s anthropomorphic
zap struck, and Moses was
all-wise, he knew he should have
asked for money.”
As Steinberg spoke, his hands
and body never stopped moving.
Gesturing with a raised hand to

God’s mighty zap, he
would come down with hand and
punchline at the same instant, to
the delight of the laughing
audience.
As he addressed a group of
psychiatrists, the urge to let out
his inner compulsions came over
him. So in his monologue, he
revealed his two great wishes to
sexually satisfy the King family
before Thanksgiving and to stop
having dreams about a carrot
chasing a donut down the street.

depict

David Steinberg should not be
identified with the typical ethnic
Borsch-belt comedian. His
approach hits everyone, and the
range of his jests is not just
confined to realm of Jewish
humor.
Centering his clever biblical
interpretations around the Old
Testament, he does not always
stay in that archaic humor vain.
With witticisms on Moses,
Jonah and Cain, he retold the Old
Testament tales, whittling away at
the scriptural icons.
Steinberg explains the two
interpretations of the Bible as the
Judaic telling the whole story and
the Goish, which sort of grabs the
Jews by the Testaments. As he
talked of the scriptures, his hand
moved across imaginary lines in
the air from left to right, and then
in a comic reverse he corrected his
action and read the Old
Testament lines from right to left.
His comedy material is funny
in itself. When it’s combined with
that impish vitality and bounce
that Steinberg uses in his facial
gestures and speech; the humor
value is increasingly multiplied.
Torturous concert
As to the late second half of
the concert
turtles are naturally
slow animals. Slow arriving at
concerts. Slow at setting up
equipment on stage. And much
too slow at getting off.

Rabbinical drop-out

After dropping out of
rabbinical school, David Steinberg
had the great desire to take out a
cheerleader. “Schick sah
cheerleaders to me,” he said, “are
the physical embodiment of all
forbidden lusts.”

the entertainment level of a
group like the Turtles is geared for
an audience of teeny-boppers.
They were 45 minutes late in
getting to the music hall. A good
bit of their concert time was spent
in setting up equipment. As it
turned out, that time was more
entertaining than their
performance - due mainly to the
fact that the Turtles’ absence
from stage made it a much more
harmonic site.

�Perlmutter:

The theater

and/or

the critic

by Richard Peri miller
Spectrum

Theater Renner

The current Fenton Lectures are designed to expose one of society’s demons, that hated little man with
the hom-rimmed glasses and God-like attitude: The Critic.
Accused of just about everything, including the demise of the theater the critic is respected by a few
but resented by most, especially the theater folk, the sometimes victims of the critic’s whim.
If critics would shift their almighty attitudes and proclaim their more humble intentions, then perhaps
the resentment would cease and their effect on the arts would become constructive.
It has been said by many that the critic is killing the theater. The accusation itself would not have come
about if the reading public would look at the critic just a Utile differently. It is time to dispel the notion of
the critic as Mr. Father Drama who presides over all goings on in his family and decides which of his children
should see what play. Of course he cannot forbid his children of all ages to see a particular work but he
certainly carries a pretty big stick of suggestion.
Theater, like all art, is a personal, subjective experience and no critic should attempt to decide for his
readers whether something is good or bad. a waste or worthwhile.
,

More importantly he should present a set of impressions of a work of art, hopefully intelligent and
intelligible. They must be taken as subjective statements, one man’s opinion. The influence of the review
should be to spark the reader with interest and awareness of the work, and to provide food for thought and

discussion.
And if he decides to see the referred-to work, then hopefully the review can aid him in an appreciation
and/or appraisal of it. If this phenomenon occurs, the review has succeeded: it matters not whether the
resultant appraisal is in accordance with that of the reviewer.
What is theater?
Does theater mean a movie or play designed solely for entertainment? Is it an escape from a bleak
reality? Is it a matter of empathetic catharsis, a purgation of soul and emotion for playwright and playgoer?
Does this purgation relieve internal aggressions and frustrations and substitute for real violence and sex?
Aristotle believed the theater to be so profound a force that it would serve as a substantial diversion
and hindrance to crime in the streets (maybe Nixon should appoint a President's Commission on Drama
Utility). Or is theater a typically capitalistic, money-making enterprise'
As you have probably guessed by now there is no answer to the question. Theater means and does
different and unique for each of us.
It should be an experience, a catharsis. But good theater, comic or tragic, ancient or modem, should
transmit an effect which transpires not only in the present but adds a tittle something ofpermanence to the
lives of its viewers and actors.
Theater, particularly modem offerings, must be taken as an experience and not necessarily interpreted,
scrutinized or even criticized. Yet it should be an experience with a point, with the goal of contributing
something of meaning ffor lack ofa better word) to a world and its people.
The contribution need not be well defined or tangible. Many contemporary works even defy
interpretation. But if a work, no matter how vague, distinct or personal, has in any way made even one life
more worthwhile then it has succeeded.

by Daniel J. Edelman
The University-Wide Athletics Committee, composed of faculty
and students, has submitted a series of six resolutions to University
President Martin Meyerson for the improvement and restructuring of
the athletic department.
The Committee also recommended that an interim football coach
be appointed from the present coaching staff to guide the team
through the 1969 season. This is based on the assumption that the
athletic fee will be raised to the necessary $25 a year needed to
support the football program in the forthcoming referendum.
It has been reported that Bob Deming, the only tenured member
of Doc Urich’s coaching staff, has been offered the post of interim
head coach. Deming, a defensive specialist has also been prominently
mentioned for the head coaching job at the University of Rochester.
The six resolutions drawn up by the Committee indicate an
attempt to bring some order to the fragmented depart
the
establishment of an authoritative administrator to preside over all
aspects of the program.
The Committee resolved that:
A director be named as soon as possible to be responsible for all
aspects of athletic and recreational programs on campus;
University-Wide Athletics Committee be responsible for
establishing athletic policies and for determining priorities with regard
to the use of the athletics facilities in accordance with the needs and
desires of the majority of students and faculty;
University community be fully informed of the hours available for
the use of athletic facilities;
Men’s Recreation Association be established to plan and sponsor
recreational and intramural activities for male students;

Aside from this slight error in wording, one would have wished the
Committee had looked into the question of athletic scholarships.
It is the question of athletic scholarships that remains the chief
bone of contention in the fight over athletic fees. Since the state
refuses to give aid to intercollegiate athletics and alumni contributions
aren’t enough, some of' the money from student athletic fees will go
towards paying athletic scholarships.
1 think it safe to assume that most people don’t mind if the
University has a varied intercollegiate athletic program. The
controversy lies in the program’s size. To entertain a big-time program
means that you have to recruit and give scholarships to the best
athletes. If you don’t give scholarships, (here is no way that you can be
big-time. This doesn’t mean, however, that you can’t have an
intercollegiate athletic program. The question is not whether the State
University of Buffalo will have an intercollegiate athletic program, but
how big will that program be. This is essentially what will be decided
in the referendum.
In answer to the Committee’s proposals, Mr. Meyerson announced
agreement with “most of the recommendations, and particularly with
the need to pull together a comprehensive athletic program to serve all
groups in the University.”

Buffalo Athletic Director James E. Peele’s recent statement that football will
definitely be played by Buffalo next season is based on a great deal of personal optimism.
Mr. Peele bases his optimism on the grounds that “commitments to the players on
grants-in-aid and to football opponents for the next three years were made before the
athletic fund went under student control. The players are there and commitments have
been made for a schedule.”

Calls for Spectrum censure

Society’s punishment

To the editor:

Martin Sostre is a man who may well spend the next 30
years or more of his life in prison, alone. Which, though it
may be a sad tale, would not distinguish him from a handful
of convicted murderers in the state’s prison system.

Mr. Sostre, however, is no murderer. He was convicted of
not sale
of narcotics, and of second-degree
possession
assault, on a policeman. Why his heavy sentence? There can
be no other explanation than the fact that besides his
nagging criminal record, Martin Sostre carries with him the
unflagging spirit of a dedicated some may even say fanatic
black revolutionary.
—

During the Buffalo ghetto riots of 1967, Mr. Sostre
operated an Afro-Asian bookstore which distributed
literature the Buffalo Police Department found offensive. In
the course of ‘protective’ measures during a fire next door to
the bookshop, most of the bookstore was destroyed, and Mr.
Sostre was jailed. One of the charges at the time was ‘inciting
words, it seems, are dangerous things in the eyes of
to riot’
some people.
Well, Mr. Sostre defended himself
or, in the eyes of
observed,
courtroom
convicted
himself
with his
one
at
the
trial.
Most
of
the
political harangues
original charges
were dropped, but the huge sentence remained: 31 to 41
years.
Most recently, the State Correction Commission issued a
statement in reply to Mr. Sostre’s political supporters,
denying that Mr. Sostre is in “solitary confinement” in the
Green Haven Prison.
According to the prison man, the harassed vocal black
is. in a pun too ironic to be funny, in “segregation.”
%

•

“Segregation” means solitary in the prison but it’s just
‘provisional’. Why this new punishment? “For inciting Negro
inmates,” so says the Commission’s statement.
Prisons are places where the Middle Ages still survive.
But to this embattled and embittered black man, they must
be the final symbol of the white man’s destructive power.
For the prison sins of lending law books to fellow
inmates and for refusing to answer questions about
involvement in black liberation groups, Mr. Sostre sits there
today, alone.
The prison has to maintain order, in order to punish
effectively; society has to maintain order in order to preserve
a decent environment for the ones who can afford it; and so
on. A familiar argument, but where does it lead?
At a certain point, human dignity and justice become
mere words in the flexible dictionary of political
expediency. What are the differences between the prisons
and the rest of society.

"I suppose it’s coincidence, but have you noticed
California has had a series of disasters since Nixon
got in?

The

grump

by Steese
While it may seem useless to you, as it does to
me, I would like to raise a large fat complaint about
a comparatively minor but rather aggravating habit
that the food service seems to have.
1 will pass on the subject of the $.38 beer
which doubles your retail price, sudshead
but
being a tea freak myself I think that there is an even
more economically inexplicable occurence. It is
relatively incomprehensible to me that one should
give ice water away free and have the gall to charge
five cents for a cup of hot water. I mean they even
charge you a nickel if you take it in a paper cup. It
might be discussable on the basis that it costs money
to heat the water, but is it that much cheaper to cool
it than to heat it?
Which is a pretty dumb way to start a column,
right? I agree, but $.05 a cup is even dumber. For tea
piffle.
1 could understand if, but for hot water
And now that I think about it, $.05 for a tea bag is a
little outrageous too. Coffee drinkers will be given
free space in which to discuss their plight, should
anyone so desire.
-

Be sure you note what should be appearing
elsewhere in this issue about the upcoming drug
conference. Mike Aldrich has probably personally
paid Ma Bells’ income tax for the year in chasing
down Ken Kesey alone, much less the rest of the
notables that will appear Feb. 27 through March 1.
Film Board deserves a great deal of credit for
the conception and execution of the film marathon
held in Norton over Tuesday evening. Seems
somewhat of a shame that we don’t have a decent
place for large gatherings of people with such
luxuries as decent ventilation, acoustics and lighting.
Then good ideas would not be limited to relatively
low numbers of people.
As a way out of the present arguments about
sports, for example, why don’t we just drop football
altogether and put the entire football budget into
the basketball team? There may not be enough
money for two squads of 11 men each, but there
should be enough for a hell of a good basketball
team, and a nice big 6000 seat fieldhouse with
forementioned conveniences. (Can you imagine
having to fight the athletic department/for the
permission to use Clark Gym? oy...)
Speaking of the film board, “Battle of Algiers”
was shown last Friday and Saturday. It was a
brilliant film, the more so because it made no effort
to be politically didactic. The fiction that the forces
of repression are always stupid, and that they can for
that reason be easily defeated, was frighteningly
well-exposed. Perhaps even more disheartening for
those who see the need for major change in this
country and look for the new left to provide it, was
the insistence on discipline as a necessary ingredient
of a revolution. For, in a sense, any talk of rebellion
is talk of a rebellion against the same forms of

have yet to see a way out of.
That a change is necessary is still open to
question by most of the population, and I have little
question that the debate will rage on long past the
time when anything could be sensibly and smoothly
accomplished. I would dearly love to be proved
wrong, but if Eric Hoffer is indicative enough of the
present mood of this country to deserve an hour of
prime television time, it looks rather bleak. The rest
of the world will have to come to us and they most
assuredly will sooner or later. But then we and the
U.S.S.R. together can kill everybody else... can’t
we?...in self-protection of course.

Any newspaper, financed by the student body,
owes a duty to the entire population of the
University. It is the responsibility of the editor of
the paper to determine what this duty is. However,
when it is obvious that the paper presents only the
viewpoints of a certain limited segment of the
University population, and refuses to acknowledge
the opinions of other groups, then it is the duty of
the University community to censure this paper.
The week of February 3-7, 1969, Alphi Phi
Omega, a National Service Fraternity, sponsored the
UMOC, Ugly Man On Campus Contest, all proceeds
of which were donated to the United Fund. It was
made known to the editor of The Spectrum that this
was a campus-wide effort to raise money for a
worthwhile purpose. The feature editor was
contacted and given a written synopsis of the events
of the week and asked if an article with pictures
would be published. All of this was done before the
deadline. No action was taken. The story not
appearing in Wednesday’s Spectrum, we appealed for
acknowledgement on Friday. Nothing appeared. We
then asked for a follow-up story, to no avail.
University students were not apathetic, $1302.63
was raised and donated in support of UMOC; only
The Spectrum was apathetic.
Therefore the conclusion is simple, The Spectrum

and its editor should be censured. If the editor is
indeed unbiased, he will print this article in its
entirety, and we will accept his oversight.
Allen Ward
Terry Block

Editor’s note: Ugly Man photos were not published
because, well, they were ugly. The results of the
fund drive, by the way, are included in the regular
“Greek Graphs column in today's Sectrum.
"

Thou art God! Mr. Bennis
To the editor.
I wish to comment on Dr. Bennis’ article ‘The
Temporary Society’ for two reasons: I first wish to
express my genuine awe to find such extensively
patterned vision in an adult, in particular, a
functioning adult. Secondly, I am concerned that
this vision is not a little hallucination: a reflex
reorganization of the past.

Dr. Bennis clearly pictures the psycho-social
dynamic of our intensifying techno-society. His
premise is the random ritual and sonambulent

unfreedom of the institution mind, fed-forward into
visualization:
“Relax Mr. Nixon, you’ve got a new
image ...”
the temporary personality. The
suggestion is to develop new (better) roles, to learn
to swing with the new turbulence (To do this you
read Careers Today and Psychology Today I Eye?,
No, too obvious) - Life as “Laugh-In.”
—

—

All this is predicated on the idea that there is a
psychological type which most!!! successfully!!!
meets today’s needs (the temporary personality); to
pick up the roles and goals best suited for the job
you fill out the coupon in Careers Today and spend
a week at Instant Success Laboratories in IBM’s new
seven-mile glass Tahiti. I submit that this is false (the
reference to the pre-LSD Leary is telling; the article
is pre-LSD...).
Mr. Bennis sees that we have to develop new and
more meaningful (satisfying) roles
there are none
Dr. Bennis sees that the old roles are limiting and
irrelevant (the times, they are a-changing); he does
-

Dr. Bennis, I believe, has attempted to absorb
ot
the psycho-social sophistication and impatience
the
into
responsiveness
the Hippy; to integrate this
status/society. (I have a picture here of a Green
is
Beret sensitivity training school.) Dr. Bennis, there
no-game which is not a game. Perhaps I indict Mr
Bennis without cause, perhaps he just wants to
maintain his job (1 reflect on Alpert/Leary), perhaps
he sees that if you sell them Psychology Today you
won’t be able to sell them anything tomorrow.
Thou art God! Dr. Bennis,

Eric

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Rocky softens on hiring hall
by Dennis Arnold
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

Speaking to approximately 800 citizens
and students at a town meeting at Kleinhan’s Music Hall Friday, Governor Nelson
A. Rockefeller agreed to appoint a commission within the next ten days to investigate the issue of equal opportunity employment in the construction of the new
campus at Amherst.
He acted in response to a demand by
Norman Goldfarb, vice president of
CAUSE, that “action by Governor Rockefeller is necessary to insure that local black
and other minority group workers are not
locked out from the economic benefits of

The Governor accused Mr. Goldfarb of
being anti-union, a charge which he immediately denied. Stressing union involvement
in the plans for the future construction,
Mr. Rockefeller said: “The contractors
must use the unions to find labor for their
projects.”
Mr. Goldfarb

speaking as a representative of CAUSE, Citizens Council on Human
Relations, I Can, BUILD, NAACP, the Student Polity, the Executive Committee of
the Faculty Senate, the University Select
-

Committee

for Equal Opportunities and
the Graduate Student Association
called
—

on the governor “to meet with us so we
can explain our plan in detail." This plan
provides for a training school for construction workers and a state-operated hiring
hall and is part of a resolution previously
passed by local civil rights groups.

Tokenism not enough

According to statistics released by the
New York State Commission on Human
Rights, the labor union locals do not have a
representative number of blacks in their
membership- Since contractors go to the
unions for the labor necessary to fulfill
their contracts, non-whites are in effect
locked out of jobs.
A massive amount of construction is
next several years, with its focal point the
building of the new campus in Amherst.
Because of this, the civil rights groups feel
that the time is right for large-scale entry
into the labor unions by non-white workers. This, they believe, will benefit the
blacks of Buffalo who constitute more
than 20% of the population of Buffalo.
Mr. Goldfarb further explained that the
Governor’s office previously had not responded to his requests for a meeting with
the governor on this matter. He disclosed
that the governor’s staff had waited until

Monday
four days prior to the meeting
to contact him and invite him to speak.
-

First meeting
Friday’s meeting marked the first time
that proponents of the resolution and the
governor have met.
In defending his administration’s activities in the area of employment, the governor pointed out that the Attorney General
has brought several such cases to court
successfully.
Gov. Rockefeller also stated that over
the next five years, largely as a result of the
Amherst construction, there would be two
million man hours of work available in the

Buffalo afea.
President of the local Building Trades
Council, stated that he felt that the need to
hire blacks wasn’t as great as was purported
to be.

Mr. Blair added that there are already
20 recent Negro additions to the building
trades and that more were in training. “We
are at least taking positive action for the
community,” he said,
Mr. Goldfarb asked the governor to
meet with community group leaders before
sending in his associates to look into the
matter. Rockeffer agreed, but cited the difficulty in dealing with traditional union

policy

Mr. Goldfarb reminded the governor
that fair and equal union practices was the
law. The governor replied that “without
the governor, you can’t do anything, and
that’s why I’m here.”
Several hundred students from the State
University of Buffalo attended the town
meeting. Transportation was provided by
the Student Association to bring members
of the Polity to confront the governor with
their demands for an integrated work
force. Student Association President
Richard Schwab told Mr. Rockefeller: “We
want assurances from you that our demands will be met. Tokenism is not
enough.”

Goldfarb said: “I feel that the demonstration of the concerned group of students
must have impressed the Governor of the
seriousness of the intent of those who want
to see black workers helping to build the
new campus.
“The governor stated that he would
meet with representatives of the civil rights
groups, and we will wait for the next step
of the governor.
“If he does not meet with us, or come
up with his announced commission, we will
take appropriate action at that time.”

STORY OF SUCCESS

Polity accepts proposal to
investigate dorm fee hike

by Rod Gere
Spectrum Staff Reporter
The Polity Friday afternoon
moved to counter recent dorm fee
hikes in a session where barely
enough students assembled to
achieve a quorum.
Student Association. President
Richard Schwab presented a
report which labeled the SI70
price increase as a representation
of “poor planning, irresponsibility
and questionable judgment on the
part of State officials delegated
with decision-making authority in
this

area.”

Calling the increase an undue
hardship on many students and
noting that the extended fee was
'*\announced without prior

consultation with campus
administrators or students,” Mr.
SchwaG’s report moved that;
An investigation be launched
into the high costs of

University-provided housing, and
that the investigation provide a
comparative breakdown of what
private industry can do in the area
of housing;
The investigation provide a
breakdown of exactly where room
renlal and State subsidy monies
are spent;
The investigation determines
exactly the nature of the state’s
responsibility to provide housing
for students on or nearby all
SUNY campus sitics;
The Slate Legislature be asked
to increase the subsidy now paid
toward student housing so that
any necessary increase can be
phased over a three to five year
period;
The Student Association be
responsible for providing an
impucl study on the proposed

increase and
Student Association officers be
responsible for providing within
such a study, possible alternatives
for financial aid recognizing the
rising costs of higher education.

"THE NEW LEADER"

Five-year period
To

a student’s question
concerning th,e proposal’s
efficacy, Mr. Schwab replied;
“What this committee can do is
dig up a lot of facts, which might
be able to show that the state
blundered. We hope to have the
increase spread over a three-to-five
year period, instead of being
imposed all at once.”
IRC president Pete Gamba
proposed an amendment calling
for a committee to investigate the
possibility of dormitories on this
campus withdrawing from the
State Dormitory Authority. Mr.
Gamba feels that “there are
enough students on this campus
to enable them to run their own
dorms at a cheaper price than the
state.”
Following the passage of Mr.

Gamba’s amendment, the entire
proposal was approved.
A proposal was offered from
the floor by Bruce Marsh, an
undergraduate student. This
proposal noted
that the
Faculty-Student Association owns
approximately 500,000 acres of

land in Amherst.
Mr. Marsh pointed out that no
plan has been formulated to
utilize this property which costs

Pueblo crewman

testifies

(

COftONADO, Calif. (UPI)

The first
enlisted man of the Pueblo crew appeared
before a court of inquiry and paid an
emotional tribute to skipper Lloyd F.
Bucher.
Quartermaster First Class Charles Law,
who was one of the men most severely
beaten by the North Koreans in captivity,
was asked his opinion of the commanding
officer who lost his ship. '"i
“I think he is a real great skipper,” Law
said. “It was an honor to serve under him.
He did a hell of a good job and I would like
to serve with him again.”
Law, 27, was the first of a dozen or
more men of the Pueblo crew scheduled to
testify before the five-adminral board.
When he finished his testimony, Law
went over the the 41-year-old commander
and clapped him on the back.
Bucher had disclosed shortly after the
crew returned on Christmas Eve that the
Communist captors had singled Law out
for particularly brutal treatment, but he
appeared hale and hearty in court.
Although he was an enlisted man,
Bucher had given Law the designation of
an officer of the deck. He was on the
bridge Jan. 23, 1968 and was the first man
to spot a North Korean subchaser bearing
down on the Pueblo.
Law said at first he expected only a
“normal harassment" such as the sister
-

intelligence ship USS Banner had
encountered on previous missions.
He alerted the captain and other officers
and was still on the bridge when the

subchaser opened up with cannon.
“What was your impression then?” he

“I hit the deck. I was

Law was asked whether he remembered
any particular shots hitting the Pueblo.
“The only ones I remember were the
loudest ones,” he said.
Despite the shelling and machine gun
fire from four torpedo boats, Law exposed
himself on the deck to bum secret papers
in an incinerator, assisted by Seaman
Clifford C. Nolty, 23.
A shell exploded near him, fatally
wounding Seaman Duane Hodges. The
same hit wounded Sgt. Robert J. Chicca,
24, one of the two Marines aboard the
intelligence ship.

Law said he helped bind Chicca’s
wounds and moved him out of the
passageway.

Rear Adm. Edward L. Grimm asked:
“What could you have done to keep the
boarding party from coming aboard?”
Law thought for a moment, then said:
“I guess we could have opened fire with
machine guns but everyone would have
been getting killed.”

The
prosecution bolstered its claim that Clay L.
Shaw and Lee Harvey Oswald were
together in a rural Louisiana town in the
late summer of 1963 with a witness who
pointed a finger at Shaw to identify him in
the crowded courtroom.
In the second day of testimony in the
trial of the 55-year-old retired businessman
on charges of conspiring to murder Pres.
John F. Kennedy, the state called William
Dunn, a Clinton, La., farmer and
construction worker. He was the sixth
prosecution witness.
Dunn said he had been working with the
Congress of Racial Equality during a voter
registration drive in late August or early
September 1963, and saw Shaw at the
wheel of a parked Cadillac in front of the
registrar’s office. The witness said Oswald
stood in line nearby to register.

Once upon a time there was a fine healthy tree
with roots that received their nourishment from the
state. Organisms flocked to it in ever-increasing
numbers to gain knowledge and other fringe
benefits. The tree offered fine shelter and a
comfortable heady environment that was divorced
from the ugly, hostile growths that filled most of the
surrounding areas.

A few of the younger organisms got to
examining the present state of affairs and concluded
that far too many of their fellows had become
entrenched in the stale areas of the tree to allow a
proper flow of beneficial communication. Indeed,
they said, there was a way to make some of the
discontented find a way to thrive better, or better
thrive.
So with the consent of the most powerful
organisms, they climbed out to the end of one
branch to initiate processes that would enable them
to learn to truly relate to one another.

Thus is the birth of the Communication College
recorded. Conceived and hatched by Mommy, it has
spent five months without any structural restrictions
to hamper its free-rein course. It is a fluid entity on a
harmless limb; it is attractive to get caught in the
flow. Curiously though, it has never been naughty
enough to drip down to the ground without
permission and go exploring.
Walnut court
It is a small branch of the University which was
allocated to the Communications College - the last
court on the left side of the Allenhurst apartments.
Traditionally the housing area for male freshman
resident students, the 12 apartments under the
auspeious sign, "Walnut," now contain about 25
male and female students apiece.
While membership can be claimed by any who
attend the weekly meetings, the Allenhurst court
has, through its different and perhaps original living
manner, come to symbolize much of the
Communications College's image. The only

One easy explanation for the enthusiasm evident
is that most of the court members are freshmen and

By Thanksgiving the clan had ebbed somewhat:
"We all needed a vacation." But things are picking
up once again. The first communal dinner was held
in one apartment two Sundays ago and 37 people
showed up. The affair was in the true Digger style.
Further proof that the community still lives was
cited in the anticipation of this past Saturday's
multi-media experience in the Fillmore Room.
Parental pride
The pride is parental. This project is their baby,
and they are quick to point out that faculty and
administrators are welcome as friends.
This group dignity leads to overt signs of mutual
self-respect, brightly illustrated by the living
condition of the court apartments.
Allenhurst apartments are notorious for their
five drab desks, Raquel Welch wallpaper, empty
Coke cans and discarded sandwich wrappers from
Big John's.
The common orientation that Allenhurst is a
temporary dorm and not a home usually remains
throughout one’s stay
which is why the basement
is invariably used to hang one's wet socks.
The living quarters in Walnut court have escaped
this prosaic tendency towards army barracks. One

But the court has had its conflicts, usually an
ffspring of its basically free essence. Confronted
rith unique liberates (no Resident Advisers, no

motions.
During most of September and October, drug
was blatant. The court soon acquired the
sputation as a drug haven. Ill feeling between the

Less consternation was felt over sleeping

Kitchen togetherness
Since many of the court members are not on
board contracts, meals are usually home-made; it is a
cultural shock of sorts to see these well-stocked
Allenhurst kitchens. Any good Mommy will tell you
that the family that eats home together is bound to
stay together in stable form. The ritual of eating thus
reinforces the community spirit and the vital idea of
a home away from home.
Like a spunky Chamber of Commerce, many
court members emphasize that students from Harpur
and Albany have been completely "turned on" by
the experience of a weekend visit.
The same theme is relished in what seems to be
everybody's favorite anecdote. Apparently a lot of
the court members were outside one night, talking

and singing. The football players, housed directly
across the street, had gone to bed early for the
fallowing day's game. Irritated by the noise, they
came roaring out to the edge of the dividing street.
'They told us to shut up," said one student.
"We yelled for them to cross the street and join us.
Most of them just muttered something, but five of
them came over and had a great time."
Why success?
The question that ubiquitously plagues the
favorable impressions of the Communication College
is what was most salient to its proclaimed success. In
all probability it was the people involved, primarily
the students
and not the, specially-induced
environment. The latter was merely granted by. a
University flexible enough to bend its structure.
The participants have partriotically endorsed the

aspects of the college already unique
to the University.
In educational perspectives there has been an
undermining of the traditional. The attitude of the
college students is extremely negative with respect to
working for the grade. Most are immersing
themselves in independentstudy courses.
But what does that mean for the University as a
whole? The students think their project has great
importance, even for those who haven't dampened
their feet in these new waters. The mystical words
"ichange the university" are stated with sincere
con fiction.
-

Future irffluence
Undoubtedly, the College has left an impression
that will be felt in the future. Two deans of the
proposed new colleges at the Amherst campus, Fred
Snell and Mac Hammond, have visited and studied
the court and have reportedly been highly impressed.
In fact, the two committees working under
these men on plans for the new colleges at Amherst
contain many students now active in the
Communication College. This almost guarantees
some perpetuation of the present experiment in far
increased quantity
which means the structure of
the State University of Buffalo is going to undergo
extensive change.
This, however, is an exercise purely for the
distant tomorrow. If change in the University's form
does come about, it will be due to a natural process
of change in which the Communication College is
merely incidental.
After all, the social dynamics of the
Communication College all travel inward
the
sensitivity training activities: trust circle, grope-ins,
mixed media are closed experiences that benefit and
change only those already committed to such an
idea. It is the antithesis of political action which is
by nature external, that seeks to confront and
challenge those who have maintained an innocent
—

—

neutrality through underexposure.
Movement inward

In reciprocal fashion is the admission by one
student who felt he originally was the "resident
radical" of the court. "Political discussions don't
exist here any more. Now I rap about magic with my
roommates."
No priorities or values are being drawn here
the discontented and restless energies that have
fostered the ranks of the campus left have been
channeled in a reverse direction. The raw material is
basically the same. It is being developed in a
different way.
The ideology of the Communication College
calls for the individual to be introspective
to
discover himself before he attempts to change the
University structure. "Before I hassle ROTC, I'm
going to sleep with some chicks and secure my

psyche."
One administrator in close touch with the
college pointed out that it actually gave students
time to develop and mature in their four-year stay,
rather than leave such a process a popular myth.

True, but this view ignores the essential
exclusivity, the secure divorced atmosphere that this
and nearly every university maintains. The people in
this experiment are communicating in comfortable

The Communication College is a middle-class

Faulty ‘example 9 leads to Winning reflections
NCAA rule ambiguity
by Len Surfustini

Stale University of Buffalo basketball coach

Editor’s note: The following story
is a clarification of a column
written on the new NCAA rule
concerning scholarship athletes.

According to Mr. Boddy, Faculty
of Social Science and
Administration, the example
represents “a very pernicious and
dangerous thing that has to be

The enormous controversy that
has engulfed the new NCAA rule

countered.”
In reality, the original rule
states: “Any such gradation, or
cancellation of aid is permissible
only if (1) such action is tatciin by
the regular disciplinary and/or
scholarship awards authorities of
the institution and (2) the student
has had an opportunity for a
hearing and (3) the action is based
on institutional policy applicable
to the general student body." '

concerning scholarship athletes
has largely been as a result of an
erroneous interpretation of the
rule’s meaning and intent, f
Radford Boddy, member of
the Faculty Senate Athletic
Committee and the State
University of Buffalo’s voting
representative at the NCAA
convention, points out that all the
recent furor has been directed
towards the attachment of an
“Example” to the Official
Interpretation of Article 3 Section
1 of the NCAA Constitution. This
section deals with the touchy
subject of institutional aid to

athletes and the conditions in
which this aid can be revoked.
The “Example” states: A
member institution may terminate
the financial aid of a
student-athlete if he is adjudged
to have been guilty of manifest
disobedience through violation of
institutional regulations or
established athletic department
policies and rules applicable to all
student-athletes. Construed to be
manifest disobedience are
disruptive actions which interfere
with the normal and orderly
conduct of an institution’s
athletic program, refusal to meet
the normal good conduct
obligations required of all team
members and defiance of the
normal and necessary directions
of departmental staff members.”
Many
observers have
interpreted this statement to
mean that athletic directors and
coaches throughout the country,
would have the right to take away
the scholarship of any athlete if
he does something that the
department considers disobedient
or defiant.

Faulty reasoning
This faulty reasoning has led to
the false interpretation that the
“Example” supercedes the rule
that it was meant to explain.

Effect in Buffalo
At the State University of
Buffalo, the above rule is strictly
observed. The regular disciplinary
and/or scholarship awards
authorities mentioned in part one
of the rule is represented on this
campus by
the University
Committee on Financial Aid. This
committee handles all forms of
financial aid that are available on
campus.
Mr. Boddy, in his report to the
Faculty Senate
Athletic
Committee, states that “as one
would expect from its name, the
“Example” is an addition to an
otherwise unchanged text.” He
continues “what one hardly could
have expected and the source of
the confusion is that the
“Example” evokes instances
where cancellation appears
appropriate that would violate the
express conditions set out by the
main text of which it is
purportedly a clarification.”
To be more specific, “the main
text provides that cancellation
must be based on institutional
pohcy applicable to the general
body, not to
student
student-athletes or team members
as cited in the “Example.”

Example’s origins

Asked why the “Example” was
included in the first place, Mr.
Boddy replied that “some schools
are planning to use the
“Example” inspite of the fact that
the original rule still holds and to

the detriment of the
student-athlete who doesn’t know
otherwise.”
He gave two reasons why the
rule was adopted. In the first
place the convention members
didn’t realize that the ambiguity
and vagueness of the “Example"
would cause such a big stir.
Secondly, a majority of the
athletic directors and coaches
deliberately drew up the
“Example” because they were not
at all adverse to using it. They
wanted to use the “Example” as a
weapon to keep troublesome
athletes in line. In this instance,
the stories that said the
“Example” would be used against
black athletes who would not
compete against schools that
practice discrimination were true.
Four recommendations
As a result of the ensuing
controversy about the rule and to
assure that the student-athlete’s
rights are not violated f Mr. Boddy
has made four recommendations
to the Faculty Senate Athletic
Committee;

Faculty Senate Athletic
Committee inform State
University of Buffalo coaches,
athletes and the University
Committee on Financial Aid that
the (main text i.e. the original
rule) provides the minimal
acceptable grounds and
procedures for cancellation of aid.

Encourage the members of the
Eastern Collegiate Athletic
Conference (of which Buffalo is a
member) to sponsor an
amendment to delete the
Urge the Faculty Senate
Athletic Committees at other
institutions to request their
presidents to instruct voting
delegates to support deletion.

This year’s Bulls, with a record of 8-5 so far, is a team any coach

Greatest satisfaction
1 believe that the greatest satisfaction one can receive from
coaching is to watch the players successfully endure not only the
scholastic rigors placed on them by th# University, but also the
competitive demands placed on them by athletics for four solid years.
They are then able to apply these valuable lessons they have learned
towards meeting the demands placed on them by our present-day
society.

Students to aid BDRU
Students have mandated a $500 grant to the
Buffalo Draft Resistance Union, an off-campus
organization, as a result of a referendum held
Thursday and Friday.
The vote was extremely close, 1319 in favor,

1261 opposed.
Another section of the referendum will change a
part of the open campus resolution passed by the
Polity Nov. 20, 1968. It now will read: “Whereas an
open campus should follow a policy of free dialogue,
required public interrogation violates the spirit of a
truly open campus and should not be imposed on
visitors to the campus.”
The vote on this'question was decidedly in favor
of the change. 1807 to 719.

To the editor:

State University policy gives students not only the
power, but
responsibility to determine their own
activities fees, and to allocate them as they see fit.

tiie

This “antisocial weakling” would like to know
Jim Peek’s “good people” need another
referendum. Continually dropping football
attendance and three past rcfefrendums already have
proven that the majority of students don’t wgnt
“big-time football.”
The alumni and the state won’t provide support.
Evidently they have no use for athletics, either. Why
prolong the death throes with another vote?
Can any of the “good people” give me a
sufficient justification for varsity athletics in a
University? 1 believe this should be a place of
learning, and I can’t see that our education receives a
single benefit from the athletic program. I doubt
that professors are influenced significantly by
football teams when they choose a University.
It has been argued that students won’t want to
attend a school without varsity sports. Students
come here because it’s cheap, and because it’s near
home in Buffalo or away from home in New York.
They don’t come for the football team. The few
dozen athletes who will go elsewhere won’t be
missed. There are hundreds clamoring for their
why

The most recent dispute arising over advisability of this
power has been not in the questioij of intercollegiate

Rap with ollie

Imagine our horror and outrage, if, for a far-fetched
example, University College Dean Claude Welch were
suddenly to tell the Student Association to stop collecting
student fees, or worse yet, to hold off signing checks until
the Student Association had proven to him that they were
‘representative’ in his view of undergraduates!
However, kow-towing attitudes exemplified in the MFC
students’ response to administrative financial and political
control indicates that night school students are unsure of
their power

We urge MFC students to exert pressure for distinct
clarification of the nature of evening school education. In
many ways evening students find themselves treated as foster
children in a wealthy family, living off table scraps and
eating in the kitchen.
Their Student Association should have all the rights of
any other student association
The students should also have the right to educational
benefits enjoyed by other sections of the University.
Recently the same Dean Brutvan suggested that educational
reforms passed by the Faculty Senate were not applicable to
MFC. Students should demand to know why.

world which you see as you read these words.

Now, if there was so much love in the
religious-oriented people who profess that they
found God. then let these people do what they can
when they see all those poor black children and
adults die of hunger in Biafra. Where are the “care”
packages? Send your dollars, you gracious-hearted

tutoring, and registration privileges to get into gaff
courses! Should muscle outrank brains?
If all athletics at this school were confined to
intramurals, the money now wasted on a few dozen
varsity players could be used to improve facilities for
the intramural, recreational, and healthful use of

thousands of students.
The athletic program does not have student,
alumni or state support. So who needs it?

Genocide, brothers and sisters
this same
genocide can be the robber of your mind. I send out
a special appeal to every brother to avoid being put
into a mental genocide. We must unite and work
hard to find communication. Soon more and more
brothers and sisters are coming to campus to get
their heads charged; they need your help.
-

If a brother gets rough in the Rathskeller, pull
his coat and calm him down. If a sister needs help
with Math, give her on-the-spot tutoring. If a young
brother gets in a vulger bag, tell him he doesn’t have
to call you a “mother-fucker.” If a sister needs some
help with a loan, check out Harriman here. Hip the
ones. It’s time the brothers and sisters find out who

the brothers and sisters find who’s for black and
who’s for genocide. Many coats need to be pulled,
but there must be 100 pulling 100. not six pulling
100.

I predict at least 1000 brothers and sisters here
365 days from now. I predict hell around here unless
we unite for the good of brotherhood and love, for
the life of body, mind and education. Don’t blame a
system, don’t blame the state, city, county, money,
elites, the whiteman, or the University
administration. Blame ourselves if we don’t get our
rights. We must be right with ourselves before we
receive our right to make action the right way .

So who needs athletics?
To the editor.

It is almost tragic that the State University of
Buffalo has fallen into a situation that football as a
major sport can not be continued without the
financial contributions of the students and Unfriends of the University.
It is true that to financially support a football
team is pretty hard, and especially when the team
belongs to a State University system. Probably the
football at the State University of Buffalo will
continue with some difficulties. But football does
not have to be the major sport at a university if
insufficient financial support exists.
Soccer probably is the one of the most
promising sports in the United States. To support a
soccer team costs only about $5000 needed
annually. The game of soccer is the most favorite
sport in every country except in the United States. It
is becoming popular and will become one of the
most popular sports in this country once people
learn the very simple rules of the game.
In New York 53 colleges and universities have
soccer teams. The student Support for soccer is
increasing every year. Take an example from ten
SUNY colleges; they have tournaments each year.
Soccer is the major sport in these colleges and the
students support their team in every possible way.
Why not have soccer in this University? We have
a large student body including about 700 foreign
students, who know the soccer game better since
they were born outside of this country. Potentially
we can have one of the best soccer teams in the
nation. Also we have all the facilities including the
Rotary field which 1 think it can be used for soccer
started in college, also before reaching its present
state. Why not start thinking about this now’
Perhaps we can have a soccer team in the fall of
1969.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

WASHINGTON (UPI)
President
Nixon’s decision on the United States’ role

former President Dwight D. Eisenhower,
who received Nixon in his hospital suite

-

White House said.
“The President will make some
decisions on the Middle East following the
meeting” of the National Security Council
the fifth since Nixon took office. Ronald
Ziegler, his press secretary, said.
Ziegler said Nixon also sought the
advice of former President Lyndon B.
Johnson in a telephone call and made
arrangements for Johnson to receive
weekly reports on international affairs
by phone, by courier or by written memos.
Such reports will also be transmitted to
-

Sunday night.
Ziegler announced that Nixon’s reply to
France’s proposal for a Big Four initiative
at the United Nations to find a settlement
to the 19-year-old dispute between Israel
and her neighbors “probably will be made
some time this week.”
All indications were the President would
accept the French proposal.
Diplomatic sources in Paris reported
that Nixon planned to make Paris his first
stop in his forthcoming tour of Western
European nations.
They said Nixon would arrive in Paris in
early March for talks with President
Charles de Gaulle.

Senate asked to ratify pact
President
WASHINGTON (UPI)
Nixon asked the Senate in the interest of
“negotiation rather than confrontation”
with the Soviet Union, for prompt
ratification of the treaty to halt the spread
of nuclear weapons.
Senate leaders of both parties predicted
that the word from Nixon in a special
message was all that was necessary to free
the treaty for approval probably early in
March
after months of inaction resulting
from indignation over the Soviet-led
invasion of Czechoslovakia last August.
Nixon said during the election campaign
that while he favored the nuclear
nonproliferation treaty, he opposed its
ratification by the Senate “as long as
Soviet troops are on Czech soil.”
Even though this condition has not been
met, Nixon said his request “in no sense
alters my condemnation of that Soviet
action.” “Rather,” he said, “1 believe that
ratification of the treaty at this time would
advance this administration’s policy of
negotiation rather than confrontation with
the USSR.”
The President said he had received the
advice of the National Security Council
-

-

and decided that ratification would serve
the national interest.
The treaty, submitted to the Senate
July 9 by former President Lyndon B.
Johnson, would prohibit nuclear
signatories from transferring atomic
weapons or information about how to
construct them to nonnuclear countries,
which would be prohibited to receive
either.
Nonnuclear nations, however, would be
helped in developing peaceful uses of
atomic energy, and the nuclear powers
could station atomic weapons on foreign
soil as long as they retained control over
them.
The treaty will come into effect when it
is ratified by the United States, Britain and
the Soviet Union, which drafted it, and 40
other nations. So far, 87 nations have
signed the document but only nine,
including Britain, have ratified it. The
other Big Two have not.
Neither France nor Communist China,
which have nuclear weapons, are expected
to adhere to the treaty, but experts do not
believe this will seriously undermine its
effects.

MFCSA attempting to
regain control, of budget

Recent actions have been
undertaken by the Millard
Fillmore College Student
Association in their effort to
resume control of their own fiscal
affairs.
Donald R. Brutvan, acting dean
of the Division of Continuing
Bducation, issued a memorandum
to the Bursar ordering a halt to
collection of fees levied by the
MFCSA. Dr. Brutvan took action
because of this body’s failure to
submit a budget prior to setting a
fee.
“We have a responsibility for
following the budgets,” said Dr.
Brutvan. “We can’t sign checks for
expenditures for which no budget
has been provided,”
Dr. Brutvan also indicated a
desire for more evidence that
MFCSA was truly representative

activity.”

The dean expressed his
comittment to the idea of
students assuming total control
over their own funds, “provided
they have given evidence of
responsibility.”

He expressed hope that he
soon will be able to rescind his
memorandum. According to Dr.
Brutvan, MFCSA has informed
him that a budget is under
preparation and
that a
questionnaire indicating student
support has been collected.
“The organization is becoming
strengthenedby student support,”
Dr. Brutvan said. “I see no reason
not to retract the memorandum

His action apparently has
created little adverse reaction
within the MFCSA. Jack Green,
president of MFCSA, indicated
optimism about Dr. Brutvan’s
order being retracted.
“We were late turning in a
budget and Dr. Brutvan had no
idea we were working one out,”
Mr. Green said. “However, a
budget will be submitted and we
hope to regain control over our
own financial affairs then.”

This inability produced apparent

when proposals dealing with black
arts and culture were presented to
the Select Committee.
James Pappas, a youth parole

worker for New York State,
outlined plans for a prospective
creative arts workshop. His
proposal called for the workshop
to be housed in a new building.

the

Workshop, in Watts, the Pittsburg
Black Arts Center and various
creative centers and theaters in
Harlem as examples of projects
undertaken in other areas.
The new building is to include
a sculpture work area, painting
and drawing studios and print
shop, photography studio, a
theater and lecture room and a
gallary for exhibition purposes.
Committee chairman James A.
Moss emphasized; “Proposals such
as this are not intended to
compete or substitute for any
other effort at culture and black
arts. This community can no
longer be satisfied with second
class facilities. The University
should be behind a prpject it can
be proud of.”
Roosevelt Rhodes, an
undergraduate student, asked the
Select Committee’s assistance in
creating the proposed Martin
Luther King Foundation for Arts
and Culture.
His proposal noted several

“A lot of people are involved

“These agencies need help now.
We had hoped to return to the

Archie Shepp, associate
director of the Experimental
Program for Independent Study,
expressed impatience with

Committee should make it a
prime task to work on furthering
black art in this community
immediately,” he said.
Mr. Shepp continued: “Let’s
begin to move meaningfully.
Perhaps we should destroy that

and replace it with a beautiful
cultural center.”
Replying to this, Dr. Moss said
that the . Committee “can’t

intend to delay. The motion does
commit us to working for it in full

The committee endorsed in

The Committee moved on to
consider a proposal by Robert
O’Neil, executive assistant to
President Meyerson. Mr. O’Neil’s
proposal called for establishing a

commission.
This commission would include
five members: two chosen by the
Executive Committee of the
Faculty Senate, one by the
Student Association, one by the
Graduate Student Association and
one by the University president.
The proposed commission is to
have jurisdiction over all charges
or complaints of discrimination
against any member of the

community. It will not, however,
extend to complaints by persons
within the University against
individuals or organizations
outside the University,
Discrimination complaints
Any person who believes he
has been victimized by
discrimination on the ground of
race, religion or national origin
may file a complaint with the
commission. The original proposal
was
amended to add
discrimination based on sex to the
commission’s jurisdiction.
Commission membership was
enlarged by amendment to
include a n o n -1 e a c h ing,

group' and a representative from

Administration.

Dr. Stern objected that the
commission “should not be
directed to one standard of
discrimination. The proposed
commission deals with several
kinds of discrimination. It would
be inappropriate to single out one
category.”
A1 Brownstein, a graduate
student, added: “This is a human
relations commission, not a blacks
and other groups commission.”
Dr. Moss replied that “we need
enough representation of the bulk
of the cases likely to come before
the commission. I suspect there
would be a reluctance of black
employees to bring cases before
an all-white commission,” “A
number of black and Puerto Rican
representatives builds into the
system at least some assurance
that if a member of one of these
groups brings a case before the
commission, there would be some
reasonable chance of success,” he
concluded.

The on-campus housing price
increase, summer activity fee and
a possible tuition hike are
scheduled to be discussed at
today’s Polity meeting at 3:30
p.m. in the Millard Fillmore
Room.
Because of the announced
price increase of $170 on
dormitory room rentals to take
effect July 1, 1969, Student
Association President Richard
Schwab plans to introduce the
following resolution at today’s
meeting:

Be it resolved that an
investigation be launched into the
high costs of University-provided
housing* and
that that
investigation provide a
comparative breakdown of what
private industry could do in the
area of housing.”
President Schwab’s resolution
also calls for the State Legislature
to “increase the subsidy now paid
toward student housing so that
any necessary increase can be
phased in over a three to five year
period.”
#

Summer activity fee
Also on today’s agenda is
discussion of the summer activity
fee, Mr. Schwab favors $3.50 fee,
as it has been previously, but
expects a little difficulty since
there never has been a real
program for the summer and the
money simply was carried over for
the fall term.
“This time we ho ie to have
people planning for the summer
session early,” commented Mr.

to fight the tuition hike and might
possibly organize “a letter-writing
campaign to head off” the

increase.
President Schwab plans to
announce that the resignation of
Jairo Estrada, the Student
Association treasurer, has been
refused until new elections are
held at the end of March.

Open campus
Although the balloting on the
“open campus” resolution will
not be finished at the time that
the Polity meets, this question
will be discussed.
Even if the resolution which
says that recruiters must partake
in an open forum is passed,
implementation of any restriction
banning their companies from the
campus would be
almost
impossible. Therefore, President
Schwab feels that the proper
solution would be to “have the
recruiters available at the end of
each day for general questions.”
A special meeting of the Polity
was held Thursday to discuss
plans to insure equal job
opportunities in the University’s
Amherst construction project. To
make Gov. Rockefeller aware of
how the Polity feels on this issue
which President Schwab calls
“the most important issue of the
century on this campus”
three
buses were scheduled to take
students to Mr. Rockefeller’s
“town meeting” in Buffalo this
morning.

Schwab.

It might be possible, he
a
indicated, to put
semi-permanent stage near the
fountain behind Norton Hall to
host various activities throughout
the summer and to put some life
into what Mr. Schwab called “a
wasteland,” during July and
August.

A $300 increase in tuition is
the final major topic that the
Polity will discuss. Mr, Schwab
went to Albany Thursday to find
out exactly what the State
Legislature had in mind by
proposing the increase and will
report today on what he learned.
If necessary. Mr. Schwab will try

�New Alinsky group here
The

East

Side Community
Organization (ESCO) has
collected half of the $50,000
needed to acquire the services of
the Industrial Areas Foundation
(IAF). The IAF, founded by Saul
Alinsky, will professionally
organize a new group which will
be run by local volunteers and
professionals.

This organization will serve as a
white counterpart to the black
community’s varied social
improvement groups.
These points were made at a
meeting of HOME (Housing
Opportunities Made Equal) earlier
this week by the Rev. Dr. Robert
Hayward of the Lafayette
Presbyterian Church, a board
member of ESCO.
„

ESCO is a group of white
citizens which was formed five
years ago out of concern for the
improvement of the Greater
Buffalo area. Presently, it’s sole
concern is raising money for the
establishment of the new group.
Its long-range goals are to improve

education,

housing and job
opportunities for the white
population.
Rev. Hayward explained that
these objectives are based on the
belief that social change is
possible within the democratic

system and in the city. He also
feels that real change can come
only from . power-based groups,
not protest action.
Members of ESCO feel that
such groups require professional
staffing and organization, which is
where the IAF is needed.
According to Rev. Hayward,
the greatest problem faced by
community organizations is public
apathy, often caused by the
feeling of helplessness that
citizens face when confronted
with fighting ‘city hall.’

He does not feel that street
protest is the only alternative to
apathy. A “power base must be
established in a constructive and
creative way,” he said, adding that
ESCO hopes to incorporate
people from the
entire
metropolitan area in its group.

Black student dissent to continue

The same week, at the UC
campus at Los Angeles, two black
student members of the Black
Panther Party were shot to death
after leaving a meeting called to
discuss the school’s new
Afro-American Center.
The two, John Huggins and
Alprentice Carter, had supported
the UCLA Black Student Union in
the group’s opposition to the
community steering committee
for the center. The committee had
appointed a director for the
center not approved by the BSU,
and this became the focal point of
the struggle between the Panthers
and the group supporting the
committee, US, led by Ron
Karenga. US is a defender of
"cultural nationalism” and
opposes the Panther’s politically
revolutionary starid.
Two brothers in US, George
and Larry Stiner, have been
arrested by the police in
connection with the murders. A
Panther spokesman has said that
his group considers “four people

“Kwashiorkor” is a slow death. The body breaks out in

To the Biafrans’ chagrin, no
country would sell them weapons.
Outnumbered two to one, town
after Biafran town began falling
under the Nigerian advance.
Entire cities of Biafrans fled their
homes into the thick African
bush.
Unable to make a quick kill,
the Nigerians embarked upon a
program of cool, systematic
genocide. As each city was taken,
houses were razed, industries
bombed
and food burned.
Uprooted from their soil, the Ibos
began starving to death. Great
hordes of homeless refugees fled
inland to cities unable to support
them.
Mass starvation had begun.
Genocide
In the as-yet untaken interior,
Nigerian jets began twice-a-day

strikes on all Biafran towns. Time
correspondent Alan Grossman
describes the aftermath of an air
raid in embattled Biafra: “The
scene I witnessed at Umahia’s

following the air raid was repeated
in nearly every Biafran town I
visited.

power in Africa, will not step in
for fear of encouraging similar
secessions in other parts of the
continent. Britain, fingered by
many as the true cause of the war,
continues to heap weapons upon
Nigeria. The only major figure to
support the secessionists is
France’s Charles de Gaulle, who
was denounced the world over
when he publicly announced: “It
is a people’s right to

self-determination.”

No surrender
The future of Biafra .is dim.
The Nigerians have unlimited
power, and the Ibos seem to have
an
equally unlimited
determination.
A year and a half has passed
since Hasan Katsina promised to
“crush the rebels in 48 hours,”
and another six months has
expired since Okoi Arikpo,
Nigeria’s Commissioner of
External Affairs, arrogantly
announced: “If next week’s peace
talks fail, we will give the signal to
our troops to finish off Biafra. We
will crush Biafra within three
weeks.”
“We havener lost the war,”
insists Dominic Agabasi. “Our
people will never give up. Even if
they capture every city, we will
fight them from the suburbs. And
if they capture and patrol the
suburbs, we will attack them from
the jungle. We will not accept
defeat. We will not be defeated;
we are only beginning to fight.”
But Nigeria is strong and Biafra
is starving. It is already on its
knees; soon it will crumble.Calabar's fate
“Surrender is tantamount to
suicide; defeat to extinction,”
claims Kevin Osondu. As an
example, Mr. Agabasi describes
the fate of the surrendered cities
of Calabar and Port Harcourt.
‘The Nigerian troops lined
every Ibo man they could find up
on the river bank and sprayed
them with automatic rifles. That
way they fell into the river and
there was no problem burying
them.”
The extermination of the Ibos
seems to be non-negotiable. Many
feel Biafra’s only hope is outside
intervention. Certainly help is
long overdue, as whole
generations of children have
already been lost. A large
percentage of the remaining

�Fenton ‘Critic Today’ series

Gill lecture disappointing
Three years ago this reporter
contributed a poem to the New
Yorker magazine of which
Brendan Gill is an editor and
critic. It was rejected! After
looking back at my years with this
publication as a rejectee, I was
sorely disappointed by Mr. Gill’s,
poor showing in the first lecture
of the Fenton Series Monday.
Mr. Gill was false in his lecture
style, trying to be more
entertaining than informative. His
,guips and gibes were geared to the
alumnae and businessmen who
comprised the majority of the
audience in the Fillmore Room.
Gill
a middle aged gentleman
more than six, feet tall, with thick
black eyebrows, mask-like lips and
black hair with white at the
temples
skirted the theme of
this year’s lectures completely.
The theme of the lecture series
is “The Role and Responsibility
of the Critic Today.” In the liner
the theme is expressed further:
“And with the emergence of
new and radical art forms in
recent years, the critic’s
traditional role of explaining and
judging may well be more
&gt;

-

important than ever before.”
He didn’t attempt to discuss
the new cinematic trends in
America. His answer to a question
concerning films as an art form
was, “Up, up and away.” This
brought a shocked whisper from
one girl: “How can he lecture like
(
this?”
In his 25-minute speech, Gill
expressed an attitude of wonder
rather than apprehension at
contemporary cinema. Although
he is somewhat abashed at the
praise trash films have been
receiving by many young people,
he realizes that the quality and
diversity of films has grown
tremendously in the last five
years. Gill refused to elaborate on
this change.

-

The most spectacular
bargain of all imported cars.

Reviewer or critic
When discussing his role, - Gill
was the New Yorker’s film
reviewer for several years before
“stepping sideways,” as he put it,
to become drama critic
he made
a distinction between the two
terms, reviewer and critic. Gill
considers himself a reviewer, a
recorder of an event who

Q: Can a system or method be established to inform someone who
has left his automobile lights on in the University parking lot? When I
reported such an instance to the Security Office, I was told they
couldn't do anything about it.
A: Sgt. Temple, of the Security Office, said that generally when
their office is informed of a car having its lights on, they turn them off
if the car is not locked. If the car is locked, however, they check the
parking permit number and, if there is manpower and time available,
they call the car owner: All too often, however, their regular functions
preclude their attending to such additional duties.
Q: I resigned from the University five weeks after the start of last
semester and at that time filed for a refund. It was weeks before I
heard from the University and would like an explanation of why the
long delay.
A: The Bursar’s Office said that the delay is due to funding
methods. Part of the money comes from a holding fund here at the
University and part comes from Albany. It take 6-8 weeks for Albany
to process such requests. The campus office makes every effort to
speed the refund once it is received because they are acutely aware of
the excessive time required by Albany.
Q: What information is available in a student’s file and under what
circumstances is it released?
A: As stated in the previous column, we canvassed various campus
offices for a review of their policy regarding student files. We continue
to relay our findings.

including any letters of reference filed with us by the student;
statement of program; transcripts from this institution and other
institutions of higher education where the student has attended, as
required in our admissions procedure; statements by the student of his
reasons for undertaking a program in education: grade reports received
from the Office of Admissions and Records including evaluation sheets
for those who student teach; copies of correspondence notifying the
student of his completion of requirements and expected date of

“Other items that might be found in some files are exchanges of
correspondence between the student and faculty members whenever a
problem has arisen; reminders to students of some important deadline
or requirement; notes or comments filed with the administration by
professors, counselors, or others, etc.
“As to its release to the people on this campus, the student’s
folder is available to any faculty member with bona fide reason, such
as a student’s advisor who needs to review the student’s status.
Students’ files are also available to our Faculty committees such as the
Teacher Education Committee, the Master’s Degree Committee, and
the Doctoral Committee, for purposes of reviewing the student’s
program and making judgments concerning his degree candidacy or
graduation. In respect to the release of information to individuals
outside our campus, we regard student files as highly confidential and
privileged, and normally the student’s permission would

School of Management: Sanford M. Lottor, assistant dean, stated
“The items usually found in a student’s file in the School of
Management are as follows: transcripts, current grades, reference
letters, applications, petitions, and other letters relating to the school
activities. The School of Management follows the regulations of the
State University of Buffalo which are printed in the Student
Handbook. In short, student records are confidential and information
in them is released only with the student’s knowledge and consent.”

irritation lay in the fact that
students were making demands to
actually run the athletic program.
Urich definitely opposed this.
“Representation, yes,” agreed
Urich: “but students are in no
position to run a program. With
due respect to the students, they
should be on faculty and athletic
committees because it is their
school. But they don’t have the
knowledge and background to
conduct and run the school’s
athletic program.”
It was also believed that Doc
became disenchanted with student
support for the Buffalo football
program. Not once in Doc’s three

Lack of interest
All these factors, ranging from
indefinite funding to the lack of
student interest, weighed heavily
in Doc’s decision to seek another

of Ithaca’s co-captains this season,
currently ranks as the second
highest scorer in the school’s

The resignation of Richard M. “Doc” Urich as head football coach
and associate director of athletics at the State University of Buffalo
has placed the entire intercollegiate athletic program in a state of
complete and utter disarray.
Critical decisions will be made in the forthcoming weeks on the
future of intercollegiate athletics at this University, It is therefore of
the utmost importance that the student body is made aware of the
present situation and the consequences of any action that it may take.
Hopefully, this column will shed some light on the subject in its
attempt to bring some order where chaos has always seemed to exist.

Money problem
The problem in a nutshell is money. The current intercollegiate
athletic program is losing at least $90,000 a year. The program cannot
continue at its present level of activity or even think about future
expansion until some way is found to gel rid of this huge deficit.
There are only two possible jources of revenue that are available
to balance the intercollegiate athletic budget
the State of New York
and the student body.

State position

The current position of the State of New York on the funding of
intercollegiate athletics is contained in the Marshall Letter. The letter,
written by Alton Marshall, executive officer to Governor Rockefeller
was in answer to an appeal by University President Martin Meyetson
and Student Association President Richard Schwab for increased state
funds for intercollegiate athletics. At present, the State pays for
coaches’ salaries and facility maintenance.
In the letter the following points are made: “The State University
has decided against financing intercollegiate athletics at higher levels
because such activities are considered less than essential to campus
academic programs.” The letter continues: “From the state viewpoint,
you can well understand that given the limited tax funds available,
intercollegiate football has an extremely low priority in the
competition for state dollars compared with such programs as
low-income housing, mental hospitals, aid to dependent children or
college scholarships for needy children.”
Since it is quite clear that the state will not help out in funding
intercollegiate athletics, the brunt of the burden falls on the shoulders
of the students.

Student fees
The present $1 I a year athletic fee is not enough to support the
current program. A return to a $25 a year fee would cover the present
program but would not be enough to cover the future expansion of the
program. In other words, the students have no guarantee that if the
athletic fee is raised to $25 a year that it wouldn’t be raised in the
future to cover the expenses of a bigger program.
The whole mess which the athletic department finds itself in isn’t
anything new. For the last few years, the athletic department has been
living in a dream world. Their hopes for a big-time football program
bringing the school fame and glory throughout the land have far
outweighed the realities of the present situation. How anyone can
dream such dreams without knowing where the money will come from
to support such a program is beyond my comprehension.
The State wouldn’t give the University any money for the
inlet collegiate program. The students, whose interest in the entire
affair can only be described as minimal, aren’t likely to relish the idea
of paying for a program that the State wouldn’t fund.

In summary
University officials are awaiting the next move by the students.
The Student Association will not take any action until it hears the
report of the Student Athletic Review Board set up as a result of last
semester’s referendum. The chairman of the committee Scott Stesinger
indicates that the report will be out in the next two weeks.
Everyone is sitting back and awaiting the next round in the never
ending and always confusing issue of intercollegiate athletics.

These are pretty good
qualifications for Bruce Brice
who plans to organize an
informal “get-together” club
of foreign and American

students.
“Mixed Bag,” as he calls it, will
be a kind of International Club
without the rigid structure, but its
programs will also go beyond such
a club.
“A structured club
hampers the formation of natural

as an agency for large group

“Mixed Bag will concentrate on a

The Governor’s silence

Jt

In each of the next six to ten years, Erie County will
experience an accelerating revitalization of its economic and
social climate. The reason: the State University construction
in Amherst.
Maybe.
There is also the possibility that this county will
gradually but perceptively come apart at its social seams.
The catalyst: the State University construction in Amherst.
Budget proposals for the comming fiscal year alone set
aside $100 million for construction at the Amherst site. In
itself, that represents the single largest construction project
ever undertaken in this area. Multiply that by six or more
and we have an idea of immensity of the construction plans:
it will be the largest single construction project in the entire
country.
The project is filled with exciting economic and social
opportunities, but it also has a tremendous potential for
frustration. Frustration, not only for students who may find
it the largest most mediocre University in the state, but also
for the ranks of Buffalo’s underprivileged and unemployed
who may find in its construction policies as well as its
inaccessibility a tremendous symbol of racism and

hypocrisy.
Unless strong decisive action is taken immediately, on all
fronts, the ‘new’ University in Amherst will be the largest
single example of white racism in the entire country.
Guarantees of full, immediate and equal job
opportunities in skilled as well as unskilled construction jobs
must be made immediately; and this can only be ensured by
the immediate exertion of pressure from the Governor’s
office.
Perhaps the Governor has not yet received the details of
the community-sponsored request for a meeting to discuss
steps to ensure equal job opportunity; we would like to
think the indifferent response earlier this week is the result
of arbitrary action by an inept subordinate. We urge Gov.
Rockefeller to recognize the explosiveness of the situation.
Action by him would suggest a societal about-face in the
right direction of social equality; inaction would be a further
affirmation of social deterioration.
The hiring-hall proposal being presented today to the
Governor by community and student leaders need not be the
only answer to the problem, but it does seem a reasonable
place to start, given the intransigence displayed by Buffalo’s
lily-white construction trade unions.
The most we should expect of today’s meeting is a
guarantee of a time and place to discuss in detail the
proposal offered. This is also the least we should accept.
Attention, all draft-age men (and their loving women):
Vote today in favor of the $500 Polity allocation to the
local Resistance.

hassle each other over. But to be the subject of as
much garbage as the local mass (mess?) media has
unloaded this past week over the subject of football
seems to be the ultimate in completely irrational
behavior.

It would seem at least faintly reasonable if the
community became upset over the befowling
(cough) of a local councilman, but to have the
massive attacks of outrage that have occured since
Doc Urich decided to go where the money is greener
and the students more normal
i.e. don’t
demonstrate and do go to football games on those
beautiful fall afternoons chat sportswriters are so
fond of describing burns my large fat bottom.
Let us begin by correcting a few mistakes in the
local newspapers, possibly lies but more probably
just the usual stupidity. This newspaper is not now,
and has not been in recent years, anti-sports. Those
interested in seeing proof are invited to drop up and
examine all those neat awards that The Spectrum has
collected, most of which mention the high caliber of
the sports reporting. We also have produced on
occasion an intramural basketball team notable for
its ineptitude but which still showed up.

Also
as I assume those few of you who gave
enough of a damn to vote know, to say that the
athletics fee was arbitrarily cut ignores the fact that
the student body was given a chance to vote on that
issue and did so.
Knowing these valuable indications of the state
of mind of the locals we can then perhaps delve into
the philosophic questions raised in the same areas.
Steve Weller, in a column in the News, commented
that nothing as important as football should be left
to the whims of students
which is kind of an
interesting viewpoint for somebody who is pushing
for the construction of a $50 million stadium, too
important no doubt to be left to the whims of the
ordinary citizen. One wonders about the fate of such
a stadium if the populace were told that it would
cost each person in the community $25 a year for as
long as he lived there.

Dick Rifenburg (I care how it’s spelled?)the
other night on channel four, whilst nailing us to a
cross of pigskin, attributed the whole problem to
student apathy. Which brings us to a fascinating
insight. Student activists only exist when something
is occuring which is disproved of. Student apathy
exists when something you wish to see done (that of
which you approve) is not being done. We have the
somewhat peculiar situation of having one of the
campuses which is hyperactive and hyper(?)apathetic

‘Who are you trying to fool..
To the editor.

As a member of the Israeli student group, having
had nothing whatever to do with any attempt to
censor anyone, 1 can not leave Imad Mikhail’s letter
unanswered. He is hypocritical, demagogic and
deliberately misleading.
The Arab youth who appeared in two of Imad’s
photographs looks more like a Jordanian legioneer
than a refugee. Once it was these legioneers who
stood upon the Old City wall firing shots at Jewish
children at play in the streets of Jerusalem below.
Who are you trying to fool Imad: is not his kaffiyah
(Arab head dress) in fact the badge of the Arab
Legion?
With regard to the other photographs, these
might have been taken any place in the Middle East.
The old man for example, looks better fed, and
certainly better dressed than the average Egyptian
failah. If these people are refugees however, and if
they live in refugee camp, than a number of
questions should be asked: Who put them in these
camps in the first .place? Who keeps them there?
Who exploits them for political purposes? I believe
that these questions should be answered before one
attempts to fix blames or talk of “guilt feelings.” I
would welcome such an inquiry,
Palestine, like the Legioneer on the Old City
wall in Jerusalem, is a part of the past which will
never come back, no matter how hard may Mr.
Mikhail try to capitalize on his photographs. So leave
your captions Imad, as they yet may serve some
useful purpose. Remove your pictures, however, as
they serve no purpose whatever.

Israeli Club clarification
To the editor:

We, the members of the Students for Israel Club
would like to clarify certain points concerning the
Photo Club exhibit last week.
Various individuals, some of whom are members
of our club, approached the head of the Photo Club.
They felt he should be made aware of the political
implications of some of the pictures and their
accompanying captions. At no time, however, did
they ask that the pictures or captions be removed, as
mistakenly reported by The Spectrum.
Those individuals did not in anyway represent
the Students for Israel Club or its official policy. We,
as a group, disavow any alleged support of
expression of artistic or political expression in any
form, regardless of our personal opinions pertaining
to the matter presented.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Urich jumps shaky UB ship
by Sarah de Lauren tis
Spectrum Staff Reporter
The resignation of head football coach Richard “Doc” Urich has occurred at a time
when the atmosphere for athletics at the State University of Buffalo is one of serious
reconsideration and debate.
Among the conditions which may have prompted Coach Urich’s resignation, most
prominent is the crisis which exists regarding financial support of the athletic program.
James Peelle, director of athletics, commented: “No one in his right mind would be
associated with an athletic department that
operates on a semester to semester basis
where students have the policy in their own
hands.” He referred to the results of a student referendum held* in November 1968
which established a $5.50 mandatory fee replacing the former $12.50 fee.
‘There is no future in football unless this policy
changes,” he continued.

President Meyerson indicated
that a successor to Doc Urich
would be postponed “until the
financial report of inter-collegiate
sports at the State University of
Buffalo is fully clarified.”

Scott Slesinger, chairman of the Athletic Review
Board, explained the reasons he believes are causing
the tight financial situation. He said that the
University had asked for $100,000 from the state for
aid to athletics, but this aid had been refused.
“There seems to be no hope for this money
being given to the school for the 1969-1970
academic year,” he added.
A report of the Athletic Review Board is now
being prepared for presentation to the Polity, Mr.
Slesinger explained. At this stage, he said, any action
to change the policy of athletic fees must be

threatened to cut the financial aid of one of his

Senate

players.

Charles “Speed” Powrie, who participated in a
demonstration against Dow Chemical recruiters on
campus in December 1967, disclosed last semester
that he had been given an ultimatum by Coach
Urich. He was asked either to stop demonstrating^or
quit the team. Ultimately, he resigned from the
team.

Investigation findings
The investigations which resulted have not yet
been completed. Alexander Brownie of the Faculty
Senate Athletic Committee stated that the
investigation being conducted by his committee had
“no effect at all” on Coach Urich’s decision to
resign. He said that the result of his committee’s
investigation probably would be a “tightening up-of
the method of removing aid.”
He added that Coach Urich only had informed
Powrie that he was no longer on the team and did
not cancel his aid.
Harry T. Cullinan, whose Faculty Senate
Financial Aid Committee also investigated the
incident, commented that “no faculty activities have

militated against him (Urich).”

Resistance vote tomorrow
A referendum that will determine whether the Student Asscciation
should grant funds to help support the Buffalo Draft Resistance Union will
be conducted tomorrow and Friday.
Although legislation was passed at the Polity meeting to grant the
BDRU $500, students have submitted a petition demanding a vote on this
issue. A debate was scheduled for 3 p.m. yesterday in the Haas Lounge
where Bruce Beyer, Larry Faulkner and Lenny Klaif of the BDRU were to
defend their point of view. As of Monday evening, no supporters of the
petition had volunteered to debate.
Prior to the debate. Lenny Klaif. a draft counselor stated: “Although
we are not an on-campus organization, we are made up primarily of students,
and one of our reasons for staying off-campus is to insure privacy for the
students. We advise many graduate students, since they can no longer be
deferred from the draft; we also counsel students as to the consequences of
dropping out of school.”
Mr. Klaif emphasized that “we’re the only place where students can go

Communist negotiators have decided to wait

for

concrete offers of “concessions” from South Vietnam before making
any move to break the current deadlock at the Vietnam peace talks,
Western diplomats said today.
South Vietnamese Vice President Nguyen Cao Ky made the offer
of “more concessions” without specifying what he had in mind, when
he called once again for private bilateral talks with North Vietnam at a
news conference Monday.
Another development that was expected to hold up progress in
the two-week-old talks was the impending visit of President Nixon to
Europe.

The Communist negotiators, who have maintained all along that
there can be no solution except on the basis of their five-point
declaration of last November, may wail to see if the presidential visit
will bring any new'cSncessions.

down by the negro faculty members themselves.
Hayakawa said some faculty members are “dedicated

Investigation of dorm costs
to be considered by Polity
A resolution calling for an investigation into the rising
cost of University-provided housing will be considered at
Friday’s Polity meeting and if passed will be transmitted to
the State.
Recently adopted by the
Student Coordinating Council, the proposal is termed by
Student Association President Richard Schwab “positive rather than condemning.”
Impetus for the resolution was

rates a double room with a

$565 per year instead of the
present $395. This represents an
increase of $ 170.
The resolution claims that the
decision “was announced without

State responsibility
The resolution not only calls
for a breakdown of exactly where
rental and State subsidies are
spent, but also for “a comparative
breakdown of what private
industry could do in the area of
housing.”
Also to be considered by the
investigation is the nature of the
State’s responsibility to provide

Tom Buchanan, graduate
student in political science and a
member of the BDRU, claimed:
"My position in terms of why the

that the students ought to be
more involved in relations with

great fiscal power through the
polity, and they can use their
funds to take a definite stand on
their country’s policies. We
represent a criticism and an
alternative to the foreign policy of
this country. The polity ought to
support us if they’re against the
war.

“The money is crucial,” he
continued. “We have been thrown

lack of funds is their greatest
obstacle, saying: “If we don’t get

The resolution also proposes
that the State Legislature be asked
to increase the subsidy now paid
toward student housing. This
would allow the State to phase
any necessary dorm rate increase
over a three to five year period.
It is estimated that the
University’s cost per bed will rise
to $790 in. 1969-1970. If the
State continues its present subsidy
of $230 per bed, this will cover
30% of the dorm costs.
The resolution also provides

expected to begin in September.
The School originated as a
response
to the current
educational system, which the
organizers feel is authoritarian in
form and one-sided in content.
The Free School has a
democratic, structure, with
students and teachers determining
content.
There are presently 20 courses
tentatively scheduled, ranging
from workshops in high school
organizing to an analysis of
Brecht, pop music, Cuba and
Latin America, and Indian

Major revisions in the plans for the School of Medicine
on the Amherst campus have beep announced by Leroy A.
Pesch, dean of the School of Medicine and director of
University hospitals.

A planned multimillion
dollar 350-bed teaching hospital, called for in the original plans, has been scrapped
the instruction program will
center around existing facilities. The design now provides
for Health Sciences Clinical
Center which will concentrate on clinical, educational,
research and service activities.
Dr. Pesch stated that the

reduction of the present program
will be reduced to a minimal set
of “activity modules” such as
research, education, administration, clinical and support. These
will- be translated into an architectural building system for the
entire Health Science complex.
He also said that the principal

Is it possible to be
passed by at 30?
Absolutely, If you're a 30-year-old engineer who's
failed to keep up with the latest developments in his
field.
Because Western Electric’s an acknowledged industrial leader in graduate engineering training, that's
one worry our engineers don't have. Our nearlycompleted Corporate Education Center near Prince*ton, N. J., for instance, will have a resident staff of
over 100. More than 310 engineering courses will be

offered, and about 2,400 engineers will study there
in 1969. It's the most advanced facility of its kind.
Ask around. You'll find that when it comes to anticipating change. Western Electric is way out in front.
And we make every effort to keep our engineers there
too. See our recruiter or write College Relations,

�We are now beginning an era when a man's
knowledge and approach can become obsolete

has trained. The value of what one learns is always
slipping away, like the value of money in runaway
inflation. We are living in an era that could be
characterized as a runaway inflation of knowledge
and skill, and it is this that is, perhaps, responsible
for the feelings of futility, alienation, and lack of
individual worth which are said to characterize our
time.

The American experience we write about of
temporary systems, nonpermanent relationships,
turbulence, uprootedness, mobility and, above
all, unexampled social change ~ may sound
queer and grotesque. "Nowhere but in America!"
one can say, with Either disgust or relief.
Whatever reaction one chooses, one cannof
avoid a dead reckoning with this social disorder
we forecast
if one chooses to live in a modern
society. For a characteristic feature of all
modern (i.e., industrialized) societies is
the extent to which it is possible for people
to change occupational and social position.
"We will all be Americans someday!"
shouted the angry young man in John Osborne's

nations become modernized, they will all share

When the traditional Turk was asked where he

I would go. If nobody goes I would choose
death. But life changes more quickly than
we think. A newspaper arrives, a telephone,'television, movies, a road, then a bus to
the city. Nothing could be more revolutionary
than a road.
One advantage of life in a so-called
developing society, beset by poverty and disease
is the ability to "see" the future, so
to speak, before it happens; that is, an
alternative future, as expressed in the great
industrial states. Seeing the future in the
present day is very much like the science
fiction of H.G. Well's time machine. And this
is possible only by the queer conjunction
of simultaneous existence of societies
at markedly different stages of econimic,
political, and social development coupled with
the mass media which transmit these images
to all nations at any scale of development,
from primitive villages to urban complexes.
The advantage / speak of is the potential to seize
the future through the examination and evaluation
of the social and moral consequences of change
before they invade like the night train
that suddenly appears, out of nowhere.
Whereas it is too late to slow
down the pace of temporary societies, it
is not too late (and becomes necessary) to
examine ways that may be more adaptive in
coping with temporary systems, ways that
could both realize our full human potentialities

we need an educational system that can help
make a virtue out of contingency rather than one
which induces hesitancy or its reckless companion,
expedience.
Most education shies away from or shuns
these adaptive capacities, wishfully hoping that the
student will possess them or that, like sex, he can
find out about them from his buddies. So for the
most part we learn the significant things
informally and badly, having to unlearn them
later on in life when the consequences are grave
or frightfully expensive, like a five-day-a-week

which would take very seriously the kind of world
we are living in and help produce students who
could not only cope with and understand this world
but attempt to change it. We should help our
students develop the necessary interpersonal
competencies, which must include at least the
following:
1) learning how to develop intense and deep
human relationships quickly and learn how to

educational ventures as Esalen, Western

National Training Laboratories reflects the
intense preoccupation with our humanness as well

as tends to be true of most education, working
against our full human development. Our educational

identity, 2) increase our tolerance of ambiguity
without fear of losing intellectual mastery, 31
increase our ability to collaborate without fear
of losing our individuality, and 4) develop a

7) learning how to develop a sense of one's

One final consideration, which I suspect
our educational system can not provide, nor can we
hope to acquire it easily. Somehow with all the
mobility, chronic churning and unconnectedness
we envisage, it will become more and more
important to develop some permanent or abiding
commitment. If our libidinal attachments...become
more diffused, it will be essential that we
focus commitment on a person or an institution
or an idea. This means that as general commitments
become diffuse or modified, a greater fidelity to
something or someone will be necessary to make us
more fully human.
For some, the commitment may be derived
from marriage....The profession of a wife in an era
of change is to provide the continuity, the portable
roots. For others, a profession, work, the church,
or some group may emerge as the source of fidelity.
Ultimately, the world will require us to rely most
heavily on our own resources. Hell, to paraphrase
Sartre, may not be other people, but "the others"

that are so critical. We die alone and to a certain
extent we must live alone, with a fidelity to
ourselves.

Bull boosters were shocked
2:39 into the final stanza when
Bill Burns and Bi'J Henry
combined on a pretty two on one
breakaway to give the Tigers a 3-2
lead.
The Bulls began to dominate
the game midway through the
third period. Following intense
activity around the R.I.T. cage
Bull forward Nels Hodder evened
the score at 3-3, and the tension
reached its peak.
The teams were denied goals
by alert defensive play and
excellent goaltending. The Bull
defensive corps of Brian Boyer,
Jim Miller, Bob Goody and Bill
Newman (formerly a forward), as
well as goalie Mike Dunn, did a
particularly noteworthy job in
preventing the fourth goal that
everyone knew would decide the
final outcome.
Daryl Pugh got the final goal
on a sizzling, 40-foot slapshot into
the upper right comer of the Tiger
net. Bedlam broke loose as the
local crowd applauded their
hometown hero.
The Bulls succeeded in sitting
on their lead for the remainder of
the game.
Coach Steve Newman cited the
teamwork displayed by the Bulls
as the key
factor in the
attainment of the two victories.
He also had praise for the fine
playing of the R.I.T. club.
Ice chips; Injuries have finally
caught up with the Bulls. Goalie
Mike Dunn aggravated a knee
injury, and defenseman Brian
Boyer took a hard shot on the
right instep. It is expected that
both will return to action before
the Bulls go on the road for a Feb.
8 game against Cofhell JV’s and a
Feb. 8 game with the St.
Lawrence freshmen. Defenseman
Bill Defoe, out with the flu, is
expected to return shortly.

Bulls crushed visiting Binghamton
88-61 Friday, in Clark Gym
upping their season’s mark to 8-5
Binghamton’s cagers left town
after the game highly impressed,
as the superbly conditioned Bulls
clearly outclassed
their
opponents. The Colonials were
never in this contest as the
Serfmen blended a fine display of
outside shooting . and tight
man-for-man defense.
The Bulls had a commanding
30-14 lead within the first ten
minutes of play.
This victory gave Len
Serfustini the distinction of
winning the most games in State
University of Buffalo history.
Serf’s teams have compiled a
189-89 tab in 13 seasons, topping
the previous high of 188 wins
posted by teams of Art Powell
from 1916 to 1943.
The Blue and White, inspired
by a cheering throng of students,
raced to an early 9-2 lead behind
three baskets by Buffalo’s Bob
Nowak and one goal by “Easy”
Ed Eberle. They widened the
count to 36-18, their largest
first-half margin, with baskets by
Nelson, Eberle and Vaughan. The
Bulls left the court at the end of
the first half with a 46-35 lead.
Bob Nowak starred in that half,
compiling 15 of his game high 22
points then.
Lesson for Binghamton

Jo'hn

the Bulls’
towering 6 foot 9 inch junior
center, was the dominent figure in
the second half. He scored 10
consecutive points for the
Serfmen in stretching their lead to
66-49. Vaughan taught his
opponent, Binghamton’s Fran
Goodrich, some lessons in offense
in the process. Vaughan scored his
first two baskets on sweeping
right-handed hooks and then spun
in the opposite direction for three
easy bank shots after Goodrich
started to overplay him.

Reserves outscore
Serf called for a tinje out at
this point to put in his reserves.
They responded in fine fashion,
outscoring Binghamton 8-4 during
their five minute stint.
Serfustini was full of praise for
his men: “Our guards, Jim
Freeney, Steve Nelson, and Roger
Kremblas, did a great job sizing up
Binghamton’s varied defenses.
They moved the ball real well on
offense and were outstanding on
defense. Bobby Nowak’s hot
shooting got us off to a great start
and they kept the momentum
throughout the entire game. I’m
very pleased with the way they
bounced back from their tough
losses to Colgate and Niagara.”
The Bulls took 93 shots, about
20 more than usual, making 37
for 44,6%. Binghamton sank 23 of
60 field goal attempts, for 38.3%.
Bob Nowak led the way for

�Film review

‘‘Funny GirV
by Robert Nigro
Special to The Spectrum

“Funny Girl,” the movie version of the 1964 Broadway
musical success starring Barbra Streisand and Omar Sherif

made its Western New York premier last month at the

Granada Theater. The three hour William Wyler-Ray Stark
production tells the sometimes tragic, sometimes comic,
always entertaining story of the early life and love of the
now legendary performer, Fanny Brice.

Unfortunately, the screenplay
by Isobel Lennart, who also wrote
t|je book for the stage, still lingers
sentimentally on the serio/tragic

Nick Arnstein. But this fault is
small and in the light of the
numerous merits of the movie, it
diminishes in importance.

Streisand dazzling
Miss Streisand, recreating her
stage characterization and making
her stage debut, is absolutely
dazzling. In one scene, she is a

stage-struck kid from Brooklyn
proclaiming to the- world tin a
trash-can laden alley) that “I’m
the Greatest Star,” and in
another, she is an hilarious
pregnant bride in a lavish Florenz
Ziegfeld production number. As

stage role as the long-suffering
mother of Fanny, is excellent. She
beautifully combines just, the right
amounts of overweening stage
mother and overbearing Jewish
mother plus an indefinable Special
ingredient and turns the role of
Rose Brice into a memorable
characterization. Sad to say,
however, Miss Medford’s musical
numbers from the original stage
version have been cut from the
film and the role is now only a
dramatic one.
Several songs from the original
Jule Styne-Bob Merrill score have
been deleted, while several new
numbers have been added,
including the popular hit “Second
Hand Rose.” The sound track
remains as one of the most lyrical
and memorable in musical history.
The spine-tingling rendition of
“People” is definitely one of the
high points of the film.

Asks referendum committee

A vote of conscience
As of yesterday morning, the originators of the
ambiguous petition, which is the subject of tomorrow’s
referendum, had not come out of the shadows. Let us hope
this indicates the fact that their views represent the silent
minority of students here.
Whether the mystery gentlemen surfaced for the ‘debate’
yesterday afternoon or not, ope must recognize that the
petition certainly has at least its support, and most likely its
origin, based in misconceptions about the Student
.Association, and narrow conceptions about its
responsibilities.
Careful examination of the SA constitution would reveal
to anyone that the Polity is entirely within its constitutional
rights to grant funds to a non-student group. It is specifically
recognized student organizations with which the Polity must
adopt a hands-off policy regarding finances. In order to
ensure diversity and the rights of minorities in student
organizations, the procedure is a necessary one. This does
not imply
that the
nor most likely was it meant to
non-student,

no

to
a
Polity
support
financial
or non-University cause or organization.
In the case of the Buffalo Draft Resistance Union, a
group of students and former students serve a valuable
function to the students, the University, as well as the
community. The only way the Student Association can help
it is through direct polity action.
Thus, the vote tomorrow should not be based on a
procedural disagreement, for there can be none, once the
facts are made known. Any disagreement reflected in
tomorrow’s and Friday's vote should only reflect a
disagreement in substance with the activities of the BRDU.
These activities include graduate student draft
counseling, information on immigration procedures, high
school draft counseling, legal implications of appeal
proceedings or of illegal acts with regard to the Selective
Service System, etc. Disagreement with these requires a lack
of concern for safeguarding young men. or at least warning
them of the inequities of the military draft.
tven more disturbing is the fact that on the same
referendum is an absurd attempt to further water down the
“open campus" resolution. However, the originators of this
petition refused to even come forth and debate the question
before the University community. Their strategy to get their
version of an open campus apparently involves closed-mouth
tactics.
The Resistance is a union of conscience, organized
loosely on an individual basis, convinced of only the need to
resist illegitimate authority. We can add our support to this
community of conscience, we can increase thf visibility of
the forces of dissent, we can increase the informational
services and draft counseling facilities of the local Resistance
by voting against the referendum tomorrow.

when people are suspended between the warmth of
the previous summer and the hopes of the new one.
No one enjoys being stranded; there’s no happiness
in being halfway home.
The Beatles are remarkable social
commentators. They have the ability to present
compelling messages in very palatable musical forms.
I recently had occasion to listen very closely to
“Eleanor Rigby.” I consider this to be one of their
most moving and significant songs. It says quite a bit

about February.

When Father MacKenzie is seen “writing the
words to a sermon that no one will hear,” we find
one of the fundamental causes of friction and
unhappiness among people. Very few people cannot
listen, but many people simply won’t listen. They
find it too inconvenient to listen for understanding.
They're afraid of being shaken or moved by what
they hear. These people are the unfortunate ones,
the ones who ultimately lose.
Turning a deaf ear is not necessarily .an
intentionally callous act. Many of us sit and listen to
others with the highest of motives. It is our failure to
digest what has been heard that is the deepest
tragedy. Words are meant to provoke thought and/or

action. When they do neither, everyone involved
suffers the loss.
Eleanor Rigby is one of those millions of people
who are going through life unfulfilled. She is alone
and of no value to anyone except herself. Perhaps
she is simply not social. Who can look out for
someone who will not look out for herself? Then
again, it’s also possible that Eleanor is not antisocial
but frustrated. She may be frustrated by those
whom she would like to trust and believe in. These
people are the same people who listen but do not
hear.
Eleanor Rigby is observing life rather than
participating in it. She and Father MacKenzie share
something in common. No one will really listen to
them. Perhaps this is their fault, perhaps not. In any
case, fewer deaf ears would make their lot a happier
one.

different.
In every war the real sufferer is the people, on
both sides. Nobody denies that there are Arab
refugees and that they suffer. World War II resulted
not in one but 40 million refugees, yet there are no
refugee camps in Europe - not any more. No
government was cynical enough to sacrifice people

to propaganda.
What is responsible for perpetuating the plight
of the Arab refugees, if not the Arab governments
who did nothing to improve their lives and
everything to exploit them as a political weapon?

In 1950, Israel received 20,000 Jews who fled
from Iraq, 80,000 from Yemen, thousands more
from other Arab countries. With their offspring, they
now constitute more than half its population.
Yet one doesn’t hear of these refugees. They
have been provided with jobs, housing and
education.
It would have been a mistake to demand the
removal of Imad’s captions, because: It is hard to
draw a line in matters of free expression on a free
campus, and the incident would have provided a
larger audience for his propaganda.
However, the reaction of those Jewish students
who did complain (they happened to be American
not Israeli), was not motivated by guilt, as he
viciously suggests, but by paranoia.
Yes, Jews are paranoid; but than, look at our
history and you’ll understood why.

Condemns censorship
To the editor.
Unfortunately, I did not have an oppoitunity to
read your editorial, “Strange Decision.” With regard
to the photographs exhibited by Mr. Imad Mikhail,
however, let me say this: As a member of the Israeli
community, I found Mr. Mikhail’s work to be
neither offensive nor relevant to the Arab-lsraeli
problem.
According to Mr. Mikhail, his subjects

“could be

Jewish children in Nazi concentration camps. I
appreciate his concern, but I would remind Mr.
Mikhail that his subjects are, in fact, Arabs living in
concentration camps
erected and maintained by
fellow Arabs.
To the best of my knowledge, no “students
from Israel . , . demanded that the captions be
removed.” If such a request was made, however.

The only reason Arabs don’t have the guilt
feelings Imad Mikhail mentioned in his letter is the
failure of their plans. It turns out that for Israel,
survival means losing a point of propaganda; but of
what use is sympathy once you’re dead?
The public hysteria displayed in Baghdad
recently is just an intimation of what would have

To the editor:

Opening our hearts and minds to others is an
especially difficult task today, because we are simply
not equipped to handle the challenges involved.
Transcending suspicion is something which modern
man finds particularly hard to manage. Our past
experiences have often made us wary of the new.
There is no ready therapy for the ills which keep
people apart. Listening to others is only a small step
toward ending the alienation which exists. Man is
not by nature a solitary creature. February is not his

favorite lime of the year.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Grading reforms pass
'eusio

■

by Sarah de Lauren tis
Spectrum Staff Reporter
Unanimously approving the final measure of the academic reform package after two
hours of debate, the Faculty Senate Thursday provided students with the opportunity to
choose one of three grading alternatives.
Effective September 1969, these options
letter grades (A.B.C.D.F).
written evaluation , and
satisfactory I unsatisfactory.
According to the letter option, “S” replaces
letter grades “A” through “D" and earns eredit,
while “U” replaces any lower mark and receives no
credit.
Claude E. Welch, dean of University College
commented on this action: “I’m delighted in the
willingness of the Senate to take this major step.
What is most important now,” he continued, "is to
make sure that these changes arc implemented
effectively.”
Expressing “enthusiasm” at the passage of the
grading reform proposal, Alan R. Andreasen, Faculty
of Social Science and Administration, commented:
‘This now gives students considerable flexibility in
planning their programs. It is up to the students to
take advantage of this opportunity to explore new
subjects and receive a broad and truly liberal

education.”

S/U debated

Questions had been raised at the Senate meeting
in room 147, Diefendorf Hall, concerning the choice
students should be given in opting for S/U
evaluations in courses required in their major fields

from selecting S/U grading in required courses in

of concentration.
David E. Bcnenson, Faculty of Engineering and
Applied Science, moved to have the words, “except
those required in the field of concentration,” added
to that part of the resolution which states: “A
student shall have the opportunity to select letter
grading or S/U in any undergraduate course within
the University.”
He explained that the “open end” of the
resolution was “not appropriate to this University.”

He also said that graduate schools use the grades
in their evaluation of candidates and that too many
“S” courses would make this evaluation very
difficult.

Dr. Andreasen, who had chaired the Ad Hoc
Committee on Grading and Ranking that first
proposed tire grading reform, termed Dr. Benenson’s

proposed amendment “unsatisfactory”.
It struck at the major purpose of the proposal
“greater flexibility for students and faculty,” he
explained.

Amendment vetoed
Ultimately, the amendment was defeated.
Charles Ebert, Faculty of Social Sciences and
Administration, commented: “Students are capable
of making these decisions on their own."
He explained that students would be able to
discuss with their advisers the implications of S/U
grading in certain subjects. Also he said that the
faculty should not underestimate students as: “Some
arc more conservative than the faculty.”
“Let’s give the students a chance to be wrong,”
he emphasized.
Under the new system, students may receive
credit for courses taken on the S/U evaluation to a
limit of 25% of the total number of credit hours
taken towards the Baccalaureate degree.
There Is no limit on the number of courses
which may be taken with a written evaluation from

the instructor.
To receive a written evaluation, students must
obtain the permission of the instructor. They may
opt for such an evaluation at any time until the last

scheduled meeting of the course.
Students wishing to be graded on the S/U
system in any course must inform the instructor by
the fourth week of the semester, or the letter grade
system will be the method of evaluation.

Mr. Cotton stressed that “the
destruction of property is a
non-violent act,” and he indicated
that “more people seem to object
to the burning of the draft files
than to the burning of human
lives in war and in protests.”

Prison inescapable
Formerly a co-chairman of
SDS at St. Louis University, Mr.

Cotton still identifies somewhat
with the revolutionary movement.
“We are trying to go beyond the
draft movement,” he persisted.
“We are now asking: How do
we change foreign policy, how do
we deal with corporate power in
this country and how can we
touch it and control it? Civil
disobedience has to be more a
part of the movement . . . When
the draft ends, I hope the
resistance movement will not.”
For resisters like Don Cotton, a
prison sentence is inescapable it
is only a matter of time. Having
already served a month in jail, the
Milwaukee 14 now are out on bail
and are awaiting their spring trial.
Mr. Cotton acknowledged that he
may be spending several years of
his life in prison, but he intends to
occupy them “with work on jail
reform and by trying to relate to
the prisoners.”
“I decided I would do
whatever I had to do, no matter
what the consequences
this is
the type of response needed by
the resistance. What I did was a
very liberating experience
I
have no regrets.”
Influenced by his graduate
work in urban affairs, Mr. Cotton
has transferred his energies to the
development of communes. “I
have spoken to society; now I feel
committed to my community. We
simply have to start living
together and relating to each
other instead of isolating ourselves
this is important. In the
communes, we share what we
have.”

diplomatic

sources predicted

the United States and
Saigon would reject the Communist
delegations’ demand that political
problems in South Vietnam be discussed
with top priority.
The conference sources said the two
allied delegations, which had working

contacts, were agreed that the political
future of the embattled country cannot be
discussed while the war is going on.
According to the sources, American
Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge and his
Saigon colleague Pham Dang Lam will
insist again at next Thursday’s session on
discussing military matters first to cut back

the fighting.
The North

Vietnamese and the Viet

Cong delegations rejected the allied
package and demanded the parley proceed
immediately to discussing the Hanoi and
Viet Cong political platforms, which are
nearly identical.
Lodge and Lam will tell the Communist
delegates this position remains “absolutely
unacceptable” to the allies, the sources
said.

Influential allied quarters are persuaded
that only secret talks, rather than the
present 60-person plenary sessions, will
allow give-and-take bargaining leading to
comprehensive compromises.

Legislation to aid desegregation
WASHINGTON (UPI)

In its first
action, the Nixon
administration has indicated it will cut off
federal funds to school districts not
providing “an acceptable desegregation
plan.”
What is “acceptable,” the
administration will decide. And it will try
not to “point a gun” at local school
districts to accomplish desegregation.
The Department of Health, Education
and Welfare cut off school aid to five
school districts in the South, telling them
they could have the funds, on a retroactive
basis, only if they desegregate within 60

President Nixon said in a television
interview during the campaign that he

One of our biggcsl wins of the season came against a Penn State
team superior to us in size and strength. We received superlative efforts
from John Vaughan and Steve Waxman in this over-time win.
We’ve also knocked off Wayne Stale and Wooster, two scrappy
and strong clubs, both by 16-point margins.
The team has lost three heartbreakers so far this season against
Syracuse, Colgate and Niagara,
We essentially played these teams on even terms, the difference in
scores being determined largely by the breaks of the game. We blew an
eight-point lead against Niagara and lost mainly due to the
explosiveness of Calvin Murphy. Incidentally, lid Eberle played a great
game, scoring 27 points.

The high spot of this seasop, which I am very proud of, has been
the good account of ourselves we’ve given in every game. This is
perhaps the greatest criterion of success, the respect your opponents
have for you. Every one of our opponents has known that they’ve
been in a tough contest.
We’ve worked hard to eliminate our weaknesses and I feel we’ve
succeeded. The players are mixing well and utilizing each other’s
strengths well. Our team play has improved as team cohesiveness has

Double winner

At the start of practice this season, I was aware of the team’s only
major weakness - inexperience in game competition as a team.
Since basketball is a fast-moving game, requiring fine timing, I
knew that our success this campaign would depend largely on how
quickly our players matured and developed

by George Toles, Jr.
Spectrum Staff Reporter

"Bullitt” is easily one of the most exciting and
interesting American films of 1968. but it’s a rather difficult
task to explain why this is so. The cinematic criteria by
which excellence is traditionally measured simply do not

apply here.
Peter' Yates’ direction is
good, but not consistently
so. For the film’s two most
perfectly realized sequences
the San Francisco

hired killers’ shotgun assault

Quiet Revolution

The

A source for expression
To the editor.

,

In an educational system based on the concept of
dependent study, it is certainly refreshing to see the
opportunities for independent study unfolding here.
It used to be that the only way a student could devise his
own program of study within a course was to be,admitted to
an honors program. This system, however, only allowed
independent research for students with high averages in
major fields; it was a kind of reward for the students who
had been most successful in a rigid, dependent,
grade-oriented system. And in many cases, it was precisely
these students who were least prepared, or interested in
independent study.
Independent study can eliminate two major faults which
existed in the honors system. Open to anyone who can
devise a tentative program, it acknowledges that programs of
independent study might be best suited for the student who
is not motivated by rigid, graded courses. It also provides
that education, not some extdrnal reward, is the major
source of this motivation.
Independent study courses should be generally
self-graded. This is completely understandable, if one
acknowledges that they are also self-motivated, thereby
requiring no form of coercion to insure “success”. Success or
failure become extremely re?ative terms, dependent to a
large extent on how the student views his work. Another
valuable opportunity offered by independent study
programs lies in the chance for a student and his advisor
relative terms, dependent to a large extent on how the
student
This year has seen the development of the independent
study program at this University to a point which certainly
makes Buffalo a member of the educational avant-garde of
major public universities, makes Buffalo a member of the
educational avant-garde of major provides the opportunity
not only for independent study, but for the admission of
minority group students into programs educationally
relevant. Hopefully many of the ideas developed by the EP1S
students will serve as the backbone for an extensive and
coordinated Black Studies program.
Under the provisions of the academic reform package
adopted by the Faculty Senate in December, students may
now plan their own majors. They may devise their own
courses of independent study through University College.
The Bulletin Board courses are an excellent expression of
relevance achieved through student initiative, and some of
them incorporate independent research as an integral part of
the course. These and Experiments like the College A course
where some 500 students will be studying and working in
the Buffalo community
are important first expressions of
a very quiet educational revolution which all of us should
recognize and take advantage of.

cleverness is usually recognized in connection with
humor more than it is anything else.

sort, and I am not altogether sure that I would much

gloomy conception of the world on Monday
mornings.
It is one thing to have survived a week and then
have somebody tell you how bad the world is. You
have the weekend ahead of you in which to
recuperate. But to remind one of the condition of
the world on Monday, when I have not yet proved
that I can survive by getting past most of the week,
would seem to me a most unkind thing to dp.

Raps Rochdale comparison
To the editor:

In Done Klein’s article of Jan. 31, the
statement: “Why is Communications College
failing?” is misleading on two counts:

1) The assumption that the college is failing.
2) That the college would be discussed in the
article.
She at no point within the article discussed
Communications College, but rather described a
completely different situation altogether. She speaks
of Rochdale in Toronto. The comparison is by no
means valid.
The College is not independent of the
University. We take all our courses within the basic
University structure.
What we are striving for, and to a great extent
have created, is a tangible sense of community. We
are free from IRC restrictions, and live co-ed within
Walnut Court in Allenhurst.
We have created a situation in which many
people of varying backgrounds are living together
and interacting on much more than a game of
Superfician Level. This is by no means a perfect
community; but by no means are we failing.
We have managed to involve many people in

training weekend in Allegheny State Park to an

have come through these hassles rather successfully

accomplished. But to say that we are failing is
unfounded, and irresponsible.
We are not perfect, but neither is Rochdale. The
College has been, from inception, battered by
harmful unfound rumors. A harmful lead sentence,
which has nothing to do with the ensuing article, is
but another barrier to the final success of a very
exciting, hopeful, experiment.

avoided. Human contact, except for existence is
rather bleak. The murk isn’t massive enough to
worry about and it just sort of hangs on. I suppose
the best way to conceptualize it would be as a
mental cold. Noteworthy perhaps is the fact that this
appeared while departing from San Francisco and
arriving in Buffalo. Hmmmmm.
Anyway, the result is a somewhat biased
viewpoint of the current state of human affairs. I
have submitted often enough to those who read this
section that the world is insane, but in my present
consistent ill humor it looks even worse than usual.
(Yes damn it, that is possible.)
And if anyone with half an iota of sensitivity
and intelligence can recognize that the world is mad,
but has managed to work out a way of dealing with
that knowledge. I see no great good in trying to
demolish a nice sold defense system. It is hard
enough to survive without my assaulting those
people who already know what I am saying but are
trying to ignore it as best they can. (Mind you, I
reserve the right to be as obnoxious as I so choose as
soon as I feel bitchier.) (. . . more bastardly?)
As noted last week, however, with the current
administration in Washington it should be eminently
possible to return to sarcasm at just about any point
one should choose. Probably an entire column
should be dedicated to the fascinating paradox of a

The letter by Mr. Hayes prompted me to do
something that I have not done since I have attended
this University (this is my final semester), that is, to
write a letter to The Spectrum.
Whether this letter is printed or not is of little
consequence; what is important is that I have a
source available to me to express my opinions, a
great many of my fellow students must have felt, as 1
have, that self-expression such as a letter to the
editor is useless. It is useless in that most people do
not want to listen to the opinions of others. Thus,
any effort at persuasion would be wasted. But even
though this effort may be wasted, the amount of
student self-expression is a good measure of the
amount of vitality within the University.
This criteria for vitality in a university must be

Noted psychologist examines
education, humanistic theory
"What is it possible for us to
become? How tall can we grow?"
Having posed this question,
Abraham H. Maslow, former
president of the American
Psychological Association and
founder of the Journal of
Humanistic Psychology, began his
discussion of the possibilities of
the application of humanistic
psychology to education.
Dr. Maslow, who has served as
a president of the Massachusetts
Psychological Association, is
currently engaged in the creation
of a Division of Humanistic
Psychology.
He spoke on “The Educational
Implications of the Humanistic
Psychologies” Monday in the
Fillmore Room.
Using his recently published
paper, “Some Implieations for
Education of the Humanistic
Psychologies” as a starting point

for later discussion, Dr. Maslow
said that the existential, Adlerian,
Jungian and Rogerian approaches
are slowly coming together into a
more comprehensive psychology
of human nature.
He hopes this will be more
adequate than the classical,
academic, scientific or
experimental psychologies in
solving relevant problems which
are “battering at our doors.”

“Share changes'
Proceeding, Dr, Maslow said
there is a revolution gripping the
world.
“These revolutions each take
their local form” promoting sharp
changes in the spirit of the times,

The green fire hydrants are the original campus hydrants and have

laid in the red fire lines to give better water supply and pressure for the
high rise buildings. The green hydrants have been left green so that the
city fire department will use only the red hydrants in case of an
emergency. The green hydrants are now used for watering lawns and
washing down the streets.

Students may then return the completed Change of Registration forms

Janies Bailey, administrative supervisor of the Housing Office, said
there is a skating rink now on campus and it is located next to

when it is ready for use and how long it will be able to be used.
What information is available in a student's file and under what
circumstances is it released?
With regard to release of information, the statement of official
University policy is detailed in the 1968-1969 Student Handbook, as
follows

“Student records are confidential, to be released only to
appropriate faculty and administrative officers. Release of such records
to any other college, prospective employers, or governmental agencies,
occurs only with the student’s knowledge and consent, or upon
subpoena, unless material demanded is legally privileged or otherwise
exempt from the process."
Inasmuch as student “files" exist in different divisions of the
University for diverse reasons, we canvassed various campus offices for
a review of their policy regarding student files. All responded in detail
We feel this question is of particular importance to all students and
would like to share the specific replies. Each week, as space permits, we
will print the answer given us by the different departments.
Student Counseling Centers: Beatrice Roth, assistant director,
stated: "A student's relationship with his counselor and the Student
Counseling Center needs to be private and confidential in order to bo

“We consider all testing and counseling contacts as focused on the
student's concerns at the time that he seeks help. Information which in
the counselor's judgment is necessary and relevant to the counseling
contact is kept in secure tiles. It is not available to any person or agency

granted, legislation would have to
be passed by two sessions of the
State Legislature, and would then
have to pass statewide and local

referenda.
The character of the fiscal
independence would be “upon
such terms and conditions as the
Legislature may, in its discretion,
provide.” The Board would
receive some form of independent
taxing power.

Republican Councilman
William F. Lyman commented
that the Democrats introduced
the fiscal independence concept
“to sabotage the elected school
board for this fall.”
Republican John T. Elfvin said
he feared that the Democrats
were, in essence, saying that “we
shall not have an elected school
board unless and until we have
fiscal independence.”
Republican William A. Buyers
agreed and moved that the

their resolution because “you had
to do something to make your

resolution different.”

Democrat Raymond
Lewandowski felt that the

uproar was
unnecessary, since ultimately
“whether or not we have fiscal
independence depends upon the
citizens of Buffalo.”
The vote on the Democraticresolution was 12 in favor and
three opposed. Counciliiien
Buyers, Lyman and Slominski
voted “no.” Mr. Buyers was
refused a request to be excused
from voting by a vote of ten to
five.
Earlier, Democratic Majority
Leader Stanley M. Makowski
successfully brought up the
Democratic resolution for
immediate consideration. This
enabled it to be considered before
the Slominski resolution, which
had previously been approved by
the Council’s Legislation
Committee, and which appeared
on the agenda before the
Democratic resolution.

Immediate consideration

Councilman Buyers again
argued over Common Council
rules with Corporation Counsel
Manguso. Mr. Buyers felt a single

councilman’s

opposition

could

prohibit a resolution from coming

for immediate consideration.
President Gorski sided with the
Corporation Counsel, and added
that he was traditionally granted
any
members’ request for
immediate consideration of an
item. The Democrats again voted
as a bloc to grant Mr. Makowski’s
request.
Mrs. Slominski’s resolution
later was defeated by a vote of
nine to six. One of her main
campaign promises in 1967 was to
work for an elected Board of
Education.

The researchers report these
effects as trends which must be
tested more extensively.
Nevertheless, this evidence
warrants the limited conclusion
that impairment or improvement
of coordination, attentiveness and

as driving, depends mostly on the
smoker’s experience with
marijuana. That is, as regular users

“Medically,” summarized Dr.

Why is the Communications College failing?
Is it possible to create a school run for, by and of the students within the context of a contemporary
university?
There is a group of 1000 people in Toronto who think they have the answer. Their manifesto reads:
"The secret of dealing with the confusion and uncertainty is to use 'we' in place of 'they' when referring to
the operations of the College. For example, say ‘what are ive going to do with the 17th floor terrace' rather
than 'what are they going to do, etc. This simple trick clarifies many otherwise ambiguous problems and
helps eliminate bureaucratic fistulence."

has classroom facilities
comparable to those in
Norton Hall
and living facilities. One may live in
an apartment, suite or room, which come in a variety
of lounge-bath-and-kitchen arrangements.
Living is completely coeducational, and all cleaning and cooking is shared, including care of the
lounges and dining halls. There are no regulations
and no administration. The hope is that out of chaos
will come individual growth and interaction that will
develop into a real community.
As the catalogue states, the aim is "the reopening
of fundamental questions: What is important to
know? What is the best way of learning it?" and the
belief is that if one is freed of external restrictions
and institutional structures, one can fulfill his educational needs.

We discovered Rochdale College by accident.
Three of us were in Toronto for the evening and
were kicked out of a University of Toronto student
co-operative by the division head. The residents suggested that the experimental college might put us up
and pointed across the street to a brand-new 18story building.
In the lobby were signs reading Welcome, No
Crashing in Public Places, and All Pretty or Attractive Girls Must Register at the Desk. Also in evidence
were the "long-haired characters wandering about'
we had been warned about at the co-op. We explained our problem to the kids at the desk and
found them eager to spend an hour searching for
empty beds, rarities in the building.

Possibilities present
The glory of the College is its freedom. No one is
instructed or shielded; the facilities to develop in
total freedom sometimes exist and sometimes do
not, but the possibilities are always present.
By not screening the group, freedom takes on
another aspect, for in a community of people often
at odds with one another, the chance to come up
progressive school when backgrounds and beliefs
vary little. Some residents do not take drugs, are
interested in grades and careers, and have little in

that there is no other place like it in North America
and they are right. The college has become an intellectual center for Toronto as well as a haven for
dropouts, and the interaction between the committed and the aimless is unique.
In the United States, co-ops have been in existence for more than 30 years at the Universities of
Michigan and Wisconsin, but they are merely residences similar to the old Toronto co-ops. A new
organization, the North American Student Cooperative League, has been formed with headquarters in
Washington to promote the establishment of co-ops,
while the Department of Housing and Urban
Development has loaned $1 million to build a co-op
at Michigan.

Viable alternative
The League considers the co-op the solution for
future housing for all people, not just students, as a
"viable alternative to absentee landlordism" in urban
areas. If the co-op movement expands and if there is
any kind of trend toward academic reform within
conventional universities, an American Rochdale
could develop
and earn accredation, should
concepts of education change.

�Mrs. Slominski aiming for City Hall
by Alfred Dragone
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

It has been said that only in Buffalo could someone like
Alfreda W. Slominski achieve political success.
This does not imply, however, that Buffalo is a hotbed of
feminine political activity and that Mrs. Slominski is a
budding Margaret Chase Smith. Her success merely proves
that Buffalo is one of the last bastions of ethnic politics
where Jack the Ripper could be elected to office if seen
eating kielbasa, pizza or grits in the right neighborhoods.
Mrs. Slominski is, therefore, a
product of ethnic politics who is

now attempting a try at the
mayorality.
Ever since her name first
became prominent as a member of

the Buffalo Board of Education,
Mrs. Slominski’s popularity with
her constituents has been

predicated on a negative position
on race relations.

Her platform
She has opposed the “bussing”
of students for more racially
balanced schools.
She has opposed an appointed
school board which is a way to
insure racial balance on the board.
She has opposed the
construction of certain “middle”
schools which would tend to
create a greater racial balance in
those neighborhoods.
She has opposed the Negro
action organization BUILD.
It is not true, however, that she
has asked for repeal of the
Emancipation Proclamation. But
then, it can’t be repealed.
Appointed by a Republican
mayor to the Board, Mrs.
Slominski was not reappointed in
1967 by Democratic Mayor
Sedita. Although she publicly
lamented the mayor’s choice, this
was an excellent opportunity for
her to enter local politics.
The complexion of the local
political organizations nearly
thwarted her political efforts.

Nero was kinder
Traditionally the Republican
party has been controlled largely
by WASPs
white. Anglo-Saxon
both locally and
Protestants
nationally. It

is true, however,

that local ClOP Chairman Al
Bellanca is not a real WASP, He
can be termed a “WASPiranl" and
has even been referred to as an
“Uncle Tomaso.”

The local Republicans
invariably nominate WASPS, but
occasionally the parly bows to
reality and nominates ethniccandidates who then must oppose

Slominski victory

In 1967, the local Republican
leadership refused to endorse Mrs.
Slominski to the primary, and
a
chose a proper WASP pair
local fireman and a housewife
to run for Councilman-at-large.
The erstwhile Mrs. Slominski
ran as an independent in the GOP
primary. Forsaking the traditional
red, white and blue, her signs were
black and white. Symbolism,
anyone?
On primary day she “buried”
-

her opponents.
Also in 1967 the Republicans
were finding it difficult to re-elect
the late County Executive Edward
A. Rath. Not only was he running
for a third term on an
undistinguished record, but he
was being opposed by the
Democrat’s top vote-getter.
District Attorney Michael F.
Dillon.
The Democrats spent lavish
amounts to insure the election of
their young, vigorous DA, the first
Democrat to win that office since
the New Deal.
For a change, the Republicans
correctly sensed the mood of the
electorate. Sensing that Mrs.
Slominski’s support came largely
from
Democratic
the
Polish-American wards,
remembering the 1967 Buffalo
race riots, local Republican
candidates “went on the road”
with Mrs. Slominski’s “show,”
touring her “turf."

Believe it or not, the theme of
the l‘)67 Republican campaign
was “Law and Order."

Yet, if the Republicans do not

After their indiscretion of

Party. In fact, a Humphrey

Broadway Market was told by a
woman that she would be
delighted to vote for Muskie. In

�Bulls will face Binghamton

strike-out

cagers in Clark Gym tonight

The varsity Bulls, sporting a
7.5 record, will go into tonight’s
home game against State
University of Binghamton at 8:30
p.m. in Clark Gym minus the
services of sophomore ace Steve
Waxman, their leading scorer and
second leading rebounder.

6 foot 4 inch former

The

All-Western New York basketball

choice, last season’s most valuable

frosh player and leading scorer
and rebounder, Waxman is

currently sidelined with the flu
bug. He should be back with the
team in time for the Bulls’ next
home start against Ithaca Feb. 8.
His absence from the lineup will

hurt

the

Serfmen,

however,

tonight.

SUNY opponent

Binghamton brings a 3-3 team
to town, having posted wins over
Plattsburgh, Utica and Union
College. Binghamton lost 70-50 to
Albany State, the only common
foe to date. Buffalo defeated
Albany 66-59, in a contest played
earlier in the season.

The Colonials, coached by
Frank Pollard, are led in scoring
by their 6 foot sophomore guard,
Join Gomulka, who is averaging

Q

close to 24 points per game. Last
season Gomulka averaged 22.7 per
game as a frosh.

by Daniel Eddman

Backcourt starters for the
Serfmen will come from 6 foot 2
inch soph Roger Kremblas, 6 foot
junior Steve Nelson
team leader
in field goal percentage, 6 foot
junior Bob Williams and S foot 10
inch junior Jim Freeney
who
gave Niagara’s Calvin Murphy fits
in the man-for-man defense when
Buffalo lost to Niagara recently.
-

Binghamton will start their S
foot 10 inch team captain, senior
Jay Noble, at the other guard spot
along-side Gomulka. The two

forwards will be 6 foot 3 inch

junior Jerry Hitsch and 6 foot 2
inch sophomore Mark Sapeistein.
The center spot will be manned
by 6 foot 3 inch junior Frank
Goodrich. The Colonials, also
known as Harpur College,
compiled a 6-10 record last
season.

Serf counters
Coach Len Serfustini will
counter with 6 foot 2 inch senior

Bob Nowak and 6 foot 2 inch
senior “Easy” Ed Eberle, who
turned in the Bull’s highest
scoring performance this season
with his 27 markers against
Niagara, at forward.
The center spot will be a
tossup between 6 foot 9 inch
junior John Vaughan, who leads
the team in rebounds, and 6 foot
4 inch junior Jack Scherrer, whose
16 rebounds in 18 minutes against
Colgate ties Vaughan for the
individual high in game rebounds
this season.

Frosh basketball

The Buffalo frosh, boasting an
8-4 mark, will oppose
Bryant-Stratton in the opening
game, starting at 6:30 p.m.
Speedster Ron Gilliam, a 5 foot 9
inch guard, leads the yearlings in
scoring, averaging 28.1 points per
game. He broke Steve Waxman’s
frosh scoring standard of 43 set
last season with a 45 point
performance in the baby Bull’s
recent 98-95 loss to Colgate.
Gilliam, an outstanding leaper, is
also second on the team in
rebounds, a remarkable feat
considering his height.
Bill Hartford, a 6 foot 6 inch
center, has been coming on strong
in recent games. Hartford’s clutch
free throw shooting in the closing
seconds was a key factor in the
yearling’s recent 69-66 conquest
of Niagara Community College.
Students will be admitted free
to all remaining home basketball
games, including their Feb. 13
contest against Buffalo State in
Memorial Auditorium by
presenting their ID cards at the
gate. Athletic stickers must be
affixed to the ID cards for free

The National Collegiate Athletic Association, the titular head of
collegiate athletics in this country, passed a revolutionary rule at its
annual convention earlier this month that will have an extraordinary
impact on college campuses across the country.
The rule reads as follows: “A member institution may terminate
the financial aid of a student-athlete if he is adjudged to have been
guilty of manifest disobedience through violation of institutional
regulations or established athletic department policies and rules
applicable to all student-athletes.”
At a very superficial glance, all the rule appears to be saying is that
if an athlete doesn’t make grade average or is placed on probation, the
athletic department can take away his scholarship until he is ready to
compete again. If that was all it meant, the rule wouldn’t have caused
such a great commotion.
In reality, this rule gives the athletic department the right to take
away the scholarship of any athlete that it wants to. For instance, if an
athlete doesn’t perform up to his high school potential and fizzles out
in college, according to this rule, the athletic department can take away
his scholarship and give it to a more worthy candidate.
This in itself is not so bad. A coach most definitely should have a
say as to who should or should not have a scholarship. After all, the
primary criteria by which people judge a coach’s performance is how
many games he wins. To do this he has to have the best athletes
available.
The entire college athletic situation would be much healthier. The
rule would for the first time remove the innocent cost of amatuerism
that college athletics has made for itself and recognize it as the business
that it is. It would show for the first time that the student-athlete is not
simply a student with better physical coordination than his
counterparts, but an employee in a university-operated business
enterprise.

But
The
coaches
Trouble

the implications of this rule run even further than this.
\
reason this rule was passed in the first place was to give college
the means to control black athletes who were making trouble.
in this sense ranged from growing Bushman haircuts to the
boycotting of matches with schools that practice discrimination.
The best example of the latter case is Bob Beamon, the
record-shattering gold medal long jumper who lost his track scholarship
to
along with several other black teammates
because he refused
compete in a track meet against Brigham Young University.
The key words ‘institutional regulations or established athletic
department policies’ gives the athletic directors and coaches great
leeway in deciding first what these regulations and policies are;
secondly what is a violation; and thirdly the degree of violation that
admission.
constitutes a situation in which a scholarship is taken away.
If a broad interpolation of this rule is put into effect, it means that
an athletic department can take away the scholarship of any athlete
using the justification that the athlete violated a departmental rule.
This works all right with little argument when the athlete issues his
scholarship because he doesn’t produce on the gridiron or the
basketball court the way that he is supposed to. But what about a case
,/ wherein an athletic scholarship is taken away because of his action off
the court? Does the athletic department have the right to dictate what
the athlete can or cannot do off the court?
This also raises the very basic question of whether or not there are
two sets of rules. One set of rules would govern the behavior of the

responsibility.

As Mr. Schwab rightly points out, this newest state

announcement confirms that the future of intercollegiate
athletics shall remain in students’ hands. Recognizing this, it
is a shaky future indeed.
A sound program of expansion, in any area, requires
steady fiscal support. Student support year after year for
big-time sports would be impossible to guarantee.
Students control how their fees should be spent, and this
can only be rightfully done on a semester-to-semester basis.
The uncertainties of the changing student population means
that instead of a steady curve of accelerating support (say,
from $25 a year to $50 a year) needed by football here, the
result would be a ragged jigsaw ofoff-again, on-again funding,
with nobody around to make up the difference.
Unless someone can provide a fairly steady funding
guarantee, we should stop thinking about big-time sports.
And we should stop making big-time plans, hoping for the
best. Ambitions in the athletic department should match the
realistic limits drawn by the state.
The National Collegiate Athletic Association has
performed a valuable service for many of us by finally
recognizing what athletic “scholarships” for big-time athletics
really are: salaries.
This redefinition is an obivous necessity for the big
business of big-time sports. Coaches must act as employers to
maintain teams that will be profitable for the owners in the
highly competitive arena of national collegiate sports.
It we recognize that star athletes are our paid performers,
we must also recognize that they must be guaranteed the full
rights ol any employee, including job security and the right
to organize. We urge our scholarship athletes to organize a
union, in order to protect themselves.

'

Remember brother, when we were teenagers,
life was eating a jelly sandwich as you shined your
Stetsons for school
thinking of one day having
your own motor-operated machine with a very fly
suit on your smooth black back.
There is a need for more changes to take place
amongst us. We may recognize that more of these
beautiful black brothers, who are struggling
desperately in the man-made jungles of the world,
trying to find their own way of survival are now on
campus. It’s up to us brothers and sisters to make
sure more of these coins go into the slot machine.
Any black face that comes to this car wash is the
black gold that we’re looking for.
It is up to us to polish the new nuggets that
show up here. Wouldn't it be nice if we had a “speak
and meet your brother week?” Unity is an individual
thing and we know that every time we see another
brother or sister we are both individuals who should
say “hello, my name is so and so.” I wish I could get
all my friends to meet friends of their friends and
expand into a large sector, but this sounds like
Utopia. However, it is a fact that if we could unite
under one common level of awareness which., is
projected forward doing something for the black
brothers, then our culture socially, economically,
religiously (the real religion, that which is in the
“soul")

would be together.

Moments of emotional barbarism are in many
souls. I saw, when 1 opened my eyes to the light,
that moments of emotional barbarism don’t pay.
We can’t fight a bad mental thing with a
physical thing. We can’t afford to get into bad and
indignant brutality bags. We have to be able to
communicate and not let words hang up our
emotional muscle which stops us from saying, “hi,
brother."
It is, or could be, an iron barrier to the whole
program of being acquainted. Take the word
“Nigger." It is used in communication.
Communication for separation, separation for
segregation, segregation from society, society which
is a composition of names in dialogue, dialogue of
words, words like “Nigger.”
It should be a New Year’s resolution to the
group of all black students to make sure they get to
know all or almost all of their brothers and sisters. 1

Did guilt cause suppression?
To the editor:

I wish to draw the attention of the University
community to an ugly incident which was a clear
violation of the concept of a free campus.
As a member of the Photography Club I was
invited to participate in an exhibit in Norton Hall.I
entered four photographs I had taken of Arab
refugees. The very first morning of the exhibit a
group of students from Israel came and
that the captionis be removed. These captions made
no reference to Israel, but merely to the fact that the
children were refugees from a once-loved home.
At first, persons in charge succumbed and
removed the captions from all the pictures of the
exhibit. Members of the club were outraged and so
were University officials who were notified of the
incident. At the time I am writing this the
photographs and the captions have been restored,
but I do not know if they will stay.
I saw a humanitarian theme and tried to capture
it. These children could be from Eastern Kentucky,
Danang or Biafra. They could be Jewish children in

Nazi concentration camps.
What was it in those suffering faces that made
those students protest? Was it the feelings of guilt
that they or their parents might be living in the very
homes of these refugees?

In defense of ROTC
To the editor:

I was thoroughly disgusted when I read the
letter written by Mr. William N. Hayes concerning
the abolition of ROTC on this campus. It seems that
Mr. Hayes considers ROTC “government
interference on campus.”
ROTC is not forced on anyone; it is 3

If everyone took the attitude that all distasteful
courses should be abolished, there would be very fe*
courses offered at this University today. To deny 3
student a course which he desires, simply because
certain people dislike what it covers, is a serious
violation of the students’ rights.
Mr. Hayes is quick to criticize government
interference through ROTC. However, he seems to
ignore other forms of government interference sued

In the past two semesters, the State University of Buffalo
has undergone something of a revolution in the area of
visitation regulations and restrictions in both the men’s and

apartments did the same, with the
exception that one member of the
five-person apartments may veto
the open house for that particular

apartment. All disputes between
roommates are handled by a
mediation board, subsidiary to the
Allenhurst House Council.
Visitation rules
Both dorms are open to
visitors, unescorted. 24 hours a
day, seven days a week.
The girls’ dorms are more
restrictive, with a basic list of
regulations regarding visitation.

Men must enter and leave through
the main exits, and must be
escorted in both directions. The
escort must declare man’s
presence with the cry “man on
the floor.” Also, while the visitor
is in the room, the door must
remain closed. Male guests are not
allowed in the basement of a
women’s dorm.
These rules are common to'all
the women’s dorms. However,
each dorm must determine the
visitation hours
the hours when
men can be in parts of the
building, other than the first floor
lounge.

Visitation hours vary widely in
each dorm. In Michael Hall,
visitation is 24 hours a day, seven
days a week, while Clement
visitation is restricted to Saturday
from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday
from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. MacDonald

weekend at very specific times,
generally from 2 p.m. to early
evening.

Infractions reviewed
While these visitation hours, in
some—erases;—aren't—especially
liberal, they are an advance over
the situation in past years. Then,
there were visitation periods for
only short periods on Sundae
afternoons. Judy Rappaporl.
president of Michael Hall, feels
the old system forced visitors to
come in droves, in a concentrated
mass, and that such a situation
injured privacy.
Presently, several of the less
liberal dorms are discussing a

referendum for the extension of
visiting hours.

The catafalque bearing the charred body of
Jan Palach was visited by more than 3000
persons Friday in Prague. The 21-year-old
Czech student was the victim of a
self-immolation Jan. 16 in protest against
Russian domination of his homeland.

The incidents began when police refused
to allow a group of young people to raise a
Czechoslovak flag over the statue of St.
Wenceslas, stripped the night before of all

reminders of the dead student.
Government and student leaders
apparently agreed on the removal of
wreaths, posters and other tributes to
Palach from around the monument and
nearby walls as a step towards regaining
calm after the near-crisis last week over his
death.
Another self-burning death and three
more attempted “human torch” suicides
were reported by Prague Radio.

“Black students have a right to
have their own bookstore on
campus just as well as the white
people have a right to their own.”
This was the comment of Gerald
Gross, manager of the Afro-Asian
Bookstore, in response to an order
received by the group restricting
them to only one table in Norton
Hall.
The order, which reportedly
was issued by an unidentified
“superior” to the maintenance
men, is in compliance with a
Norton house rule allocating only
one table to any organization on
campus. The Afro-Asian tables are
maintained under the auspices of
the Philosophical Society.
James Gruber, assistant
director of the Union, said the
change was the result of a
shortage of space. Other groups,
he explained, were requesting
more tables because
the
Bookstore had more than one and
they felt they should be given the
same. He said the problem was in
the distribution of tables.
The situation was resolved,
however, when three campus
organizations
the Philosophical
Society, the Black Student Union
and Youth Against War and
Facism
decided to use each of
their own tables to operate the
bookstore.

Suddenly
I Lost My

Memory!
A noted publisher in Chicago
reports there is a simple technique for acquiring a powerful
memory which can pay you real
dividends in both business and
social advancement and works
like magic to give you added
poise, necessary self-confidence
and greater popularity.
According to this publisher,
many people do not realize how

much they could influence others
simply by remembering accurately everything they see, hear, or
read. Whether in business, at social functions or even in casual
conversations with new acquaintances, there are ways in which
you can dominate each situation
by your ability to remember.

Hockey getting hotter
by Richard Baumgarten

Going full stride over the glistening ice, the skater crosses the
blue-line and takes a blistering slap shot. The goaltender makes a great
stick save and throws the puck into the corner. A defenseman picks up
the loose puck and the action goes the other way.
The name of the game is ice hockey. It’s the fastest, most exciting
sport around. And here at the State University of Buffalo, hockey is
coming into its own
The history of the Buffalo Hockey Club is quite a story. It all
began back in 1962 when about 20 students formed this school’s first
club hockey team.
The founders of the Buffalo Hockey Club must really have loved
the game, because they had to overcome a tremendous amount of
obstacles just to keep the team going.
For one thing, there was very little monetary support of any kind.
The players had to buy their own equipment and rent their own ice for
practices and games. The cost came to well over $100 per man.
Then, too, there was the problem of finding a decent place to
night they meet a tough practice. The players finally wound up practicing at the old Ft. Erie

games. Amazingly enough, they won four and tied one. Not bad for a
team which didn’t even have a full-time coach.
Success continued to follow the Buffalo Hockeymen through the
1963-64 season. As a member of the newly formed Finger Lakes
Hockey League, the Bulls increased their schedule to 17 games. Their
.14-2-1 record was second only to unbeaten R.I.T.
A year later the leers won the most important battle in their
history, but it didn't happen on the ice. The issue was money. The
Student Senate, which had been giving the club financial aid since the
beginning of the 1963 season, threatened to cut off alt funds. Without
this financial help, the club was in trouble and the players knew it.
Working together as a team off the ic*, the players formed a very

If you’ve ever resorted to NoDoz’ at 4 a.m.
the night before an exam, you’ve probably
been disappointed.
NoDoz, after all, is no substitute for
sleep. Neither is anything else we can
think of.
What NoDoz is is a very strong stimulant. In fact, NoDoz has the strongest
stimulantyoucan buy withouta prescription.
Caffeine
What’s so strong about that?
If we may cite The Pharmacological
Basis of Therapeutics: Caffeine is a
powerful central nervous stimulant. Caffeine excites all portions of the central
nervous system. Caffeine stimulates all
portions of the cortex, but its main action
is on the psychic and sensory functions.
It produces a more rapid and clearer flow
of thought and allays drowsiness and
fatigue. After taking caffeine, one is canahle of more sustained intellectual eftort and a more perlecl association or
ideas. There is also a keener appreciation of sensory-stimuli.
Very interesting. But why take

NoDoz when you can get caffeine in a
cup of coffee?
Very simple. You take NoDoz all at
once instead of sipping coffee for lOminutes. And if you take two NoDoz tablets,
the recommended dosage, you get twice
the caffeine in a cup of coffee.
Two tablets—isn’t that likely to be
habit forming? Definitely not. NoDoz is
completely non-habit forming.
Which means it’s safe to take
whether you're cramming at night. Or
about to walk into an 8 o’clock class. Or
driving somewhere (even though you’re
rested) and the monotony of the road
makes you drowsy.
One last thing you should know
about NoDoz. It now comes in two forms.
Those familiar white pills you take with
water. And a chewable tablet called
NoDoz Action Aids . It tastes like a chocolate mint, but it does everything regular
NoDoz does.

to stay awake this
long, you know
that’s quite a lot.

A modest proposal

The blues course blues

The S/U proposal before the Faculty Senate tomorrow is
minimally acceptable to all students and, in its modest way,
serves at least as a basis for more substantial grading reforms
in the future. The faculty must in good conscience accept it.
There, are sections in the proposal, however, which
deserve further discussion before a vote is taken.
Why September 1969? No valid arguments have been
presented yet saying why the S/U proposal can not be
instituted immediately, effective for this spring semester’s
grades.
Why the 25% limit? Why not a limit on letter-grading
instead? The proposal’s limit, arrived at quite arbitrarily,
supposedly represents a ‘compromise’ between 0% and 100%.
Such a compromise has no valid educational rationale
supporting it. It is quite apparent that with a 25% limit in
effect, many students would be faced with having to drop
some courses in which the professors choose to use S/U
grading.
We must all recognize that the grading reforms have only
limited value, hardly beginning to react to the real needs of
the educational system. The criteria of success must be
examined more fully: Is the present system or its proposed
reform based on the teachers’ criteria for academic ‘success’
or the students’? Is it based on coercion or educational
incentives? Why is the word “failure” applicable only to
students and not to professors?
We would also urge students to attend tomorrow’s
meeting. Students have been told they are only worthy of
being spectators; but it’s one of the fastest growing spectator
sports on campus.

By Randall T. Eng
WASHINGTON
The inauguration of Richard
Milhous Nixon was accomplished here without the
slightest hitch. Everything proceeded in a calm,
predictable manner.

For a normally festive occasion, the mood was
quite subdued, however. The curious were in much

greater number than the celebrants. Resident Nixon
was sworn in without the enthusiasm that usually
accompanies an incoming chief executive. Clearly, he
must prove himself to America.

Avc she remarked about the martial character of the
celebration. As the soldiers, sailors, marines and
airmen passed in review, I could see her point.
People were conspicuously absent from the parade.
Uniforms and standards were everywhere, and a
mood of anonymity prevailed.
As the parade neared the half-way point, a little
black boy of about six years squirmed his way to the
restraining ropes at the curb. Margie picked him up
and looked sad.

Marty was watching the parade also. He
identified himself as a pre-law student from Virginia,
Marly was an American in the Richard Nixon sense.
His faith in America, he said, was tremendously
bolstered by the election of the new President.
Marly was proud of the Apollo astronauts and their
effects on American prestige.

I reminded him that there was still that war in
Vietnam and that affluent America was unable to do
anything for starving Biafra. It was not my intention
to put him down, but apparently he took it that
way. He told me to go back and join my friends with
the black flags. They were not my friends, 1 told
him. but they did have an awful lot of important
Marty shrugged and continued watching the
parade. The art of listening is difficult to learn.
Those who manage it arc the lucky ones.
The alienated are not only from the Left, In
fact, they are front every sector of American society.

attached to the institutions of this society . They are.

not receiving credit. This is absurd
Although the content of the course is valid,
what is more important is the fact that this many
people want to devote time to learning about blues.
So why can’t we all be given the chance for this
course? Why can’t U.C. open its doors a little to
student desires? A course like this isn’t unreasonable
to ask for; and, with this degree of demand for the
course, we should be allowed to take it and all of us
should get credit for it if we pass.
“This project (BB courses) offers faculty and
students a unique opportunity to initiate the courses
they feel are important and relevant to their learning
interests.” U.C. stated this in their leaflet on this
semester’s BB courses. Why don’t they live up to it?
Why couldn’t this course be sectioned into
smaller groups, allowing all who are interested to
benefit from this opportunity?

As the parade proceeded down Pennsylvania

For those of you who visited the photography exhibit in
Norton Hall's ('enter Lounge Monday, we suggest you take
another look at today's showing. Something’s missing.
After the exhibit's first day, the Photography Club
decided that all word descriptions or poems accompanying
any exhibit would have to be removed. Photographers were
told bluntly that pictures do not need words.
The decision to drop all words followed complaints from
some students that phrases accompanying some photos of
forlorn, dispossessed Arab children contained inflammatory
political sentiments.
This sort of aesthetic authoritarianism is reprehensible
enough in any kind of artistic presentation, particularly one
which began on an open basis. However, the circumstances
surrounding Monday's decision suggest that the ugly aesthetic
argument was only a shallow attempt at rationalizing an even
uglier act of political censorship.
We strongly urge Photography Club members to reverse
Monday's decision at tonight's club meeting. Art exhibitors
should be strong defenders of the right of freedom of
expression, not its shaky usurpers.

Strange decision

letter

although the situation probably pertains to other BB
courses as well.
About 150 students showed up the first day
students who want to learn more about this type of
music. I was one of them. We were informed that
University College only gave out 40 class cards
although the instructor requested more. If this many
students want to leant about a certain subject, they
should be given the chance to. Moreover, if they’re
willing to put in the time, they should get credit.

Editor's note: University College officials announced
Monday that additional class cards have been
obtained for the course, raising the enrollment to
120 students.

Wake up, Mr. Eng!
To the editor.

The cynical Mr. Eng outdid himself in his column
concerning the egg incident of Dec. 9. Mr. Eng
apparently lacks the slightest degree of compassion
for the freedom fighters who dared to free the
University from the facist harangues of
Lewandowski.
The tone of Mr. Eng’s column suggested that
compromise and accommodation are possible with
the enemies of the people. He is very sadly mistaken.
Mr. Eng should not have expressed the sentiment
that reconciliation is possible. Those days are long
gone and it is folly to even think of it.
Wake up, Mr. Eng! Dreamers end up losers.

amoeba who never cared'

To the editor.

Fourteen people are dead and the only reaction
so many have is simply to say, “People are killed hv
falling dust every day.” And what about the nearly
3,000 women and children captive in the eight-foot
by ten-foot cellar in Plainfield? Is that so easy to
answer? I think not.
Miss Hemiman’s recent letter tastes something
like gradualism, or unconcern or, for God’s sake,
cowardice. Just remember, please, that beyond the
far side of primitivism there are a million amoebae
who never cared.
You save the twentieth century; everyone else
going to bed.

on alienation
Margie and her friends say that they are totally
estranged from the fabric of American society. They
are waiting for the apocalypse before trying to pick
up the pieces. Marty and those like him are content
to close their eyes and let the bad things pass
quietly.
"Bring Us Together" is a theme of the Nixon
administration. The experience of Washington on
Inauguration Day indicates that this is a monumental
task. The gulfs are wide and suspicions run rampant
today. It’s been said that talk is cheap. Perhaps this
is so. but if we don’t begin soon, it may become a
very expensive commodity

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

It began peacefully with a few

about the same number of
students supporting the strike.
Faculty organizations on campus

and the American Association of
University Professors issued “no

President Robert Clark called it an
AFT “power play.”
Students supporting the strike
distributed literature and
organized to educate the campus

momentum to shut the school
down. By the end of the third

The San Jose question is not an
isolated one; the issues which

caused the strike there cannot
even be discussed until the entire
California state school system is
subjected to scrutiny. The AFT
local has refused to negotiate until
the San Francisco AFT Local
1352 agrees to do so. The major
specific faculty demand is for
written contracts with the
administration. Right now, the
State Trustees are free to ignore
any agreements made previously.
The Trustees cannot negotiate
until they are permitted to do so
by the State Assembly and
Senate. Faculty members hope
that settlements will be made at

It pressed black student demands.
The AFT there voted to join the

�Britons urge lenient pot laws
A Home
LONDON
Office subcommittee report
-

released earlier this month
recommends that possession
of small quantities of
carinibis (which in England
means hashish) should not be
punishable by imprisonment,
and leaves open the
possibility that “properly
organized research may' one
day produce information
which could justify further
consideration of the practical
problems of legalisation.”
The report, prepared for the
British government by a
subcommittee of the Committee
on Drug Dependence in the Home
Office, aroused a storm of protest
from conservative doctors, led by
Dr. Elizabeth Tylden and the
British Medical Association.
Dr. Tylden called the
document “a sort of junkies

however, was headed by a Labor
life peeress, Baroness Wootton,

Superintendent Peter Brodie,

London. They gathered evidence
from dozens of doctors and drug
authorities whose testimony is

summarized in the report.
Two-year penalty
While suggesting massive
marijuana research and the
examination of possible import.

But pot, according to the
evidence and medical testimony
gathered by the subcommittee,
does not have these effects.
Of claims that marijuana leads
to heroin or dangerous drugs, the
report says: “Such evidence can
never be conclusive.”
The report discloses that
unskilled workers smoke pot as
their equivalent to other people’s
alcohol; and fundamentally

inspection, production and
licensing procedures, the study
urges Home Secretary James
Callaghan to reduce the penalties
for possession on grounds that
moderate use is a “relatively

minor offense,” and makes it clear
that cannabis is much less
dangerous than opiates and pep
pills, and possibly less dangerous
than alcohol.

The report recommends

law-abiding people, including
those in the professions who are
disinclined to use alcohol, LSD, or
pep pills
tend to stop smoking
marijuana when there is a risk of
prosecution which would
jeopardize their career.

Possession of a small amount
of pot should not be punished
with imprisonment.
Summary conviction for
possession should draw

Potential benefits?
Several doctors told the
fact-finding group that tincture of

“Thus we would

marijuana may have potential
therapeutic uses.
A letter accompanying the
report, from Sir Edward Wnyne,
Chairman of the Home Office’s
Advisory Committee on Drug
Dependence, noted that
consumption of marijuana even in
small amounts sometimes had
adverse effects, and that use
should not be encouraged, but

hope that
juvenile experiments in taking
cannabis would be recognized for
what they are and not treated as
antisocial acts or evidence of

unsatisfactory moral character,”
the subcommittee said.
Effects of pot
“If it were clear that
intoxication, aggressive behavior,
sexual excesses, multiple drug use,
and crime were the predictable
results of social smoking of
cannabis there would be a strong
case for special steps to protect
young people and for trying to
enlist the help of those in charge
of private premises.”

added:
“We think that the dangers of
its use as commonly accepted in

the

past,

and

the

risk

of

progression to opiates, have been
overstated and the existing
criminal sanctions intended to
curb its use are unjustifiably
severe.”

The Dutchman 9 to be performed
When “The Dutchman" by Leroi Jones first appeared off-Broadway in the spring of
1964, it was hailed for its “raw power" and “explosive violence" and as “the most
impressive work by an American playwright in the last few years.” Of dubious
significance is the fact that the theater reviewer for The New Yorker found its language
some of the rawest he had ever heard on stage, but added that in this play it was fully

“The Dutchman” is the story of a young man and a 30-year-old prostitute who
meet on the subway. The man is black, the woman white, and what follows is a violent
and passionate mutual introduction into racial polarization and misunderstanding.
On a larger level, it has something to say about alMiuman relationships, but on the
level of white/black confrontation it is a vital examination of the forces that polarize the
races. First produced in 1964, it is even more relevant to our society five years later.
The play will be presented by the African Cultural Center Tuesday afternoon in the
Conference Theater. Clay will be portrayed by Ron Wofford, and Dottie Drummer is
Lula.

Ed Smith is the director. The donation is a minimum of $1.00 which will go to
finance the efforts of the African Cultural Center in the inner city.

the failure of fall 1968’s projected

The slowness of
the

combined with the summer
setback in physical examinations,
was a major reason.

Another was that many
students returned to or started

mostly on the hot shooting of Ed
Eberle, who canned seven of ten
field goals. Calvin Murphy,
Niagara’s junior All-American
guard, was limited to 8 points in
the first half. Buffalo used a
variety of defenses, including a
box-and-one, 1-3-1 zone and a
man-for-man. Jim Freeney,

“You’re treated
like a professional
right from the start!’

f

The attitude here is, if you're good enough to be
hired, you're good enough to be turned loose on a
project,” says Don Peistamel.

Don earned a B.S.E.E. in 1965. Today, he’s an
Associate Engineer in systems design and evalua
tion at IBM. Most of his work consists of determining modifications needed to make complex
data processing systems fit the specialized
reguirements of IBM customers.

Depending on the size of the project, Don
works individually or in a small team. He's
now working with three other engineers on
part of an air traffic control system that will
process radar information by computer.
Says Don: There are only general guidelines. The assignment is simply to come
up with the optimum system."
Set your own pace

Recently he wrote a simulation program that
enables an IBM computer to predict the performance of a data processing system that will
track satellites. He handled that project himself. Nobody stands over my shoulder,” Don
says. “I pretty much set my own pace."

Don's informal working environment is typical of Engineering and Science at IBM. No
matter how large the project, we break it
down into unitssmall enough to be handled
by one person or a few people.
Don sees a lot of possibilities for the future.
He says, "My job requires that I keep up to
date with all the latest IBM equipment and

systems programs. With that broad an outlook,
can move into almost any technical area at

IBM—development, manufacturing, product
test, space and defense projects, programming

Indignant over raid coverage
To the editor:
Witnessing the treatment in The Buffalo Evening
The Courier Express, and even in The
Spectrum 5Fthe December drug raid, I can remain
silent no longer. The time for silent indignation has
passed.
There seems to be an ugly double standard as far
as justice is concerned; The law is to protect the
innocent and punish the guilty, and no one is guilty
in America until a jury so proves him, yet these boys
have not gone on trial. But to see the police and
media treatment of them, one would believe that
they were convicts.
The job that the police force did was efficient:
They got what they wanted as far as arrests went. But
how much more was necessary? With the media on
their side, they seemed to be out again to antagonize
Community-University relations, and to slur the
University name. Much that went on seems so unjust
both to the students who were set up as the showcase
example, first on the list of raids, and to the
University.

the ‘un-mod squad’ in the BEN celebrated the police

was in their very backyards.
Is it just for the police to misuse their power, to
falsely accuse one boy, and to slap two others
around, without witnesses in the basement of the jail?
This is medieval
And if The Spectrum only knows that the police
arrested “at least” these four, why publicize names

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

WASHINGTON
Defense Secretary Clark M. Clifford said the
United States has no "obligation” to keep halt a million men in South
Vietnam, until Saigon and Hanoi reach a political settlement that
ends the killing there.
He urged the South Vietnamese to “stop squabbling” with North
Vietnam over procedural questions such as seating arrangements at
the Paris peace talks and get down to serious negotiations.
“Each day and each week that they delay, more men are dying
on the battlefields of South Vietnam,” he said.

“Cutting the career of graduate students will have a
serious effect on the growth of the entire research and teaching program of the country.” Ubiratin D-Ambrosio, former
director of Graduate Studies of the Mathematics Department
discussed the effects of the current increase in the drafting
of graduate students for military service.

The three Apollo 8 astronauts sought medCAPE KENNEDY
ical clearance for launch Saturday on man’s most daring spaceflight—a Christmas journey around the moon.
Frank Borman, 40, James Lovell, 40, and William Anders, 35,

confirmation they are in top shape and ready to go. It will be LovfeU’s

A survey taken by The Spectrum last week indicates that
graduate studies programs in the
Faculty of Arts and Letters have
been affected the most by the Sel*
ective Service, with approximately one-third of all male students
in that Faculty having 1A classifications either final or in the process of being appealed.
An expected ratio of at least
one out of every four draftees to
be called in January will be college graduates according to a Defense Department report. This is

when the decisions of pending
appeal cases are received, the situation could become extremely
serious, almost overnight.
In the English Department
there are approximately 55 appeals pending, ten of which have
reached the state level. However,
there are approximately 12 to 15
students whose appeals have been
denied and two who have already
been drafted.

From New Student Affairs

“All will be welcome to coffee

The directors of graduate studies in both Classics and Spanish,
Itlaian and Portugese indicated
that no graduate students from
either department have left
school due to the military draft.
They said that letters of support
had been written for students appealing their classifications, but
that no replies have yet been received.

In the Faculty of Natural
Scienc and Mathematics, the departments of biology, chemistry
and mathematics reported that no
graduate students had been
drafted, however there are a significant number in each department who are appealing for reclassifications.
Walter Rosen, former director
of Graduate Studies for the Department . of Biology indicated
that many students had been encouraged seek letters endorsing
their appeals from faculty members.

Dr, Rosen also said that William Meyers, a Buffalo-area lawyer, had addressed and advised
graduate students concerning the
intricacies of the draft and has
indicated a willingness to help.
He has distributed notes for the
students to use for consultation
and has dealt with a number of
appeal cases himself.

Howard Tieckelmann, director
of Graduate Studies of the chemistry department said that many
of the appeals from graduate students in his department had been
pending since June and that it is
hard to predict if they will be denied. He said that on the request
of students, letters have been
written. However, he added:
“What we could write about one
student, other colleges could most
likely write about 1000 students.
It’s therefore hard to say whether
the letters cause any result.”

.

From Treasurer Jairo Estrade:

John Dings, director of Graduate Studies in English, said many
letters supporting the appeals
have been written; however, state
appeals lake months of time and
there is no way of knowing what
the outcome will be.

Regarding letters of support to
draft boards, considering student
appeals, Mr. Newhouse said, “The
draft boards won’t listen to us
any more than they will listen to
anyone else. We will write the
letters, but we are not convinced
that these have had any impact,”

Draft 'threat'
The departments of history and
psychology of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration
reported that no students have
been drafted from either departments since September, However,

Edward J Hovorka, chairman of
Graduate Studies in Psychology
said that two students who were
accepted for the fall semester
were drafted during the summer.
He added that there were a few
students who had been accepted
to do graduate work and had
turned down the offer because of
concern over the draft threat.

“All legislation for the months of
November and December is listed
There will be a referendum

to graduate teaching assistants

the graduate schools mentioned, each school reported having from one-half to the total
number enrolled classified as
teaching or research assistants
Of

Teaching assistants

Dr. D-Ambrosio expressed concern for the effect the draft will
have on these teaching assistants.
“Many of our graduate students
have been trained and have acquired experience in teaching. If
we are deprived of these students, there will be a serious effect on the undergraduate teaching program. This will mean fewer and larger calsses. This will
also mean less trained teachers.”
The effects of the draft on the
admissions policy in the various
departments was also discussed.
In every case, the directors of
graduate studies claimed that a
student’s draft status had no effect on his chances for admission and that only his qualifications were considered. In no case
has there been an increase in
admissions for purposes of securing a certain number of students enrolled should some of
them be drafted.
Mr. Newhouse commented that
if a greater number of students
were admitted to the law school
this would lower the standards of
the school. He said current admissions quotes are large enough
to admit all students who are
qualified.

Draft's effect

Concerning the effect of the
draft on the future of all grad
uate studies, most of the depart
ments agreed that there has been
no significant effect as yet, but
due to the great number of pending appeals there is anticipation
of considerable problems, among
both students and faculty.
Dr. Rosen commented that it is
“very clear that the students arc
under an enormous stress because
of the uncertainty of the situation,” which he termed very "an

tagonizing,”
All the graduate departments
indicated a significant amount of
concern over the next draft call,
which has been set by the Do
fense Department at 26,800 for
the month of January, 'ndications
are that the draft may take as
many as 35.000 during some
months in 1969.

The trial of four of the Buffalo Nine

—

Ray Malak, Gerald Gross, Carl Kroneberg
and Bruce Beyer begins Jan. 6. They are
charged variously with forcibly resisting,
impeding or assaulting a federal officer in
the course of his duty. From a legal
standpoint the case is rather peculiar, for
this is the first time such charges have
been levelled against people when no
weapons were involved. The law has only
been used less than ten times in its history, and only in connection with criminals
of a physically dangerous sort.

From a political standpoint, the case
is hardly peculiar at all
in fact, it is
going to be typical of many similar cases
in the next few years. The election of
Richard Nixon and his selection of a
purely WASP, business and smalltownoriented cabinet will probably set a tone
of conservatism and self-righteousness for
the entire American judiciary. The case
of the -Buffalo Nine will be one more
famous trial, like that of Martin Sostre or
Huey Newton, when the government itself
will be on trial.

Col, Ha Van Lau, the deputy leader

Hanoi and its Viet Cong allies would accept nothing less than this.
As a compromise, Lau has suggested a
solid round table be used with Hanoi and
the NLF occupying one quarter each and
leaving the remaining half for Washington
and Saigon to divide up as they wish.

The full delegation headed by Tran

Some diplomats predicted there would

A political statement has been written
by the accused, explaining why, according
to international law, they are innocent.
The guilty are the ones who forced them
into the position of resisting the draft, it
claims. The statement, which should be
read by everyone, cites the Nuremberg
Chapter, the Bertrand Russell War Crimes
Tribunal and the Eichmann case as legal
precedents involving the need for the
individual to obey international above national law.

Because the American legal system only
begins to approximate justice for the
wealthy, the Nine need money for legal
defense. Though the lawyers are charging
only a nominal fee, court costs can run as
high as $10,000 if the case, as it may, goes
to the Supreme Court.
This fee represents the cost a defendant
must pay to prosecute himself! Such an

incredible system is reminiscent of debtors’ prisons and other early capitalist barbarisms. If one has no money, one does
riot get anything remotely near a fair
trial, and for the community to fail these
men would be unthinkable. Checks can
be made out to The Buffalo Nine Defense
Committee and sent to the Buffalo Draft

the Buffalo community who oppose the

war, yet have had difficulty relating to
anti-war efforts in the past, will emerge
from the sterility of passivism and hopelessness to support the Nine o n Jan, 6 and

If the joint proposal were

Schmidt’s and Bud are neck

a cluster of Black Label, Genesee,
and Colt 45. Horse-racing fans
here have found a new sport—-

beer-watching.
The man keeping the tally is
Food Service Director Raymond
Becker, who estimates that 12001400 cans of beer were consumed
in the Rathskeller on the first day
of sale one week ago. Now that

the initial surge has subsided, he
is planning the future of beer on
tap.

“Tap beer will be made available next fall,” Mr. Becker said,
“after we determine the most popular brands to put on tap. This
will also require that we go before the Liquor Board and receive
permission for a change in area,”
he explained. The prices will continue to compete with those in
the local area.

sistant to the president, discussed the possible legal infractions

No secrets
"There are no secrets in this
business. Everything is made open
through the statutes and resolutions of the Liquor Authority,"
he continued. “Anyone who loses
his license or has it suspended
has only himself to blame."

Besides the initial qualifications
for a license, there are two types
of laws governing the cafeteria's

Many more conbeen let for the
tracts will be let within the near future.
Traditionally, entry into the construction
trades has been primarily through the
unions.
•

“Of approximately 15,000 members of
the construction trade unions in Western
New York, only several hundred are
Negroes and most of these are laborers.
Despite pressures, well-publicized policies
and several operating programs to increase black employment in the construction industry, there has been an
increase over the past four years of only
about 100 Negroes in the construction industry in Western New York.
’

“There is now a severe shortage of
skilled construction workers all over the
country. As construction of the new State
University campus and other substantial
projects imminent in the Western New
York area get under way, the shortage of
workers in this area will become severe.
Workers will be attracted from other
parts of the country, but not in sufficient
number to assure an adequate supply of
construction workers.
“Unless procedures and standards designed to increase black participation in
the construction of the State University
campus are established immediately and
are provided for in contracts to be let
in the near future, it is perfectly obvious
that an unprecedented opportunity to
increase equality hi opportunity in the
construction industry will have been forfeited by default."

Albany delegation
“Delegation to Albany to present
program to Gov. Rockefeller and State
Construction Fund; participation of State
University of Buffalo: We propose to
organize a delegation representing our
membership, additional organizations willing to join with us. individual citizens
and the State University of Buffalo to
travel to Albany on Jan. 6 to meet with
Gov. Rockefeller and the directors of the
State Construction Fund to present the
program outlined below and to seek a
commitment that it will be implemented.
It is our hope that the State University
•

of Buffalo will endorse the program and
will join in our delegation and that President Meyerson will himself lead the
University's delegation to the governor."

Two objectives
•

“The program; Our program is de-

signed to meet two basic objectives: first,
to ensure that all competent black workers
will have access to construction jobs as
they become available in the construction
of the new campns; and, second, to assure that a significant number of com-

petent black workers will be available
to help to meet the demand for construction workers to be generated by this
project."

A. Hiring practices
“Hiring hall: As already noted,
black membership in the unions, other
than the laborers union, is negligible.
Contractors have been in the practice
of hiring in effect through the unions.
If that practice is not modified, it is
obvious that access of competent black
workers to employment on the University
project will be hopelessly impaired. We
propose that the contracts tor the con•

struction of the University require that
entry of all workers into employment on
the project be through a hiring hall
manned by the New York State Employment Office under the supervision of the
State Division of Human Rights. Job
openings should be advertised in all ap-

propriate media, and the State will use
every available means to find and recruit

black workers.
"The establishment of such a hiring
hall would not be anti-union. Non-union
workers will be required to join the appropriate union within seven days, as
required by union shop contracts.

erection of the State University and the
cost of this can be figured in the cost
of construction.

as part of their on-the-job training. Those
who take part in the early phase can be
qualified to take regular journeymen's
jobs
the non-residents and other residents can be trained on the State University job as well as others."

B. Acquiring skilled blacks

Procedures

“Construction school: Although the
hiring hall proposed above would assure
access of competent black workers to job
opportunities in the construction of the
new University campus, that will not be
enough. For well-known historical reasons
the number of skilled black construction
workers is undoubtedly nowhere near
what it should be. We are entering a period of acute shortage of skilled construction workers. We therefore propose establishment of a construction school to train
a significant number of skilled black

“Recommended procedure: 1. The
governor set up a joint-Management-LaborCivil Rights Committee to determine, with
the help of the proper State agency, the
number that should be trained for the
above and other projects contemplated
throughout the State. ■

“Buffalo's Urban Center, a State institution guided by Tlrie County Technical
Institute, can head the administration of
the school while the actual operation of
the school, recruitment, classroom training, on the job training, qualifying exams,
etc. should be in the hands of a joint
management-labor committee which will

be responsible for turning out qualified

journeymen.

“It is also contemplated that the State
Division of Human Rights assign personnel
to review the development and hiring of
non-whites on the projects outlined above
and others to insure that once qualified
they are ,being given employment opportunities.
“It is possible that the school itself can
set up sufficient on the-job training to
preclude the necessity of the students'
going onto jobs outside the school. If this
can be done, additional non-whites can

“3. The operational personnel set up

“4. The operational personnel will then
determine the various training courses

should be sought out. (Example: Buffalo
has a program to build 12 schools in the
next five or six years; in the private sector a bank complex is slated for the foot
of Main St., a stadium may be built, etc.”)

Special committees
“Financing; A special committee
should be sot up to study ways to finance
this school. Federal, State and funds from
private foundations should be sought. As
a start, the State Construction Fund should
subsidize the school and add the expenditures to the cost of the University until
other sources are found.”

A resolution will also be offer

assistant to the president:
"To be acted upon by the Stu

of Buffalo.”
Mr. Brodt commented on his
resolution:
"It is imperative to alleviate
the present situation which exists
in the proceedings of the Faculty
Senate. No student voices are to
be heard in this sacred meeting
unless directly involved in the
committee work of the issue to

development at the University af-

fect students, there should be
student input in the decision mak
ing process.

Bicameral legislature
"This government would bo established as a bicameral legislature. one house composed of
faculty members and the other
house composed of both undergraduates and graduate students
in proportion to the numbers enrolled at the University. The

houses would meet separately to
concur on an issue unless a mu-

tual decision could not be effected. In this case the houses would
then meet jointly to effect a compromise in deciding the policy
decision.
"1 think the passing of this resolution could start the machinery
working which could bring about

Allan Brownstein, graduate student in social welfare, will present a lengthy resolution concerning a proposed course of action to secure equal opportunity
in construction of the Amherst
campus.

Masters discuss Amherst colleges
by Marge Anderson
Campus Nvws Editor

V

Actual construction of the first
six colleges ot the Amherst cam
pus will begin in the spring, with
eventually 30 such colleges form
ing the basic living-learning environment for University students.
Plans for the first six have already been started, and in some
cases are almost completed, al
though planning for all will be a
continuous process,
Warren G. Bennis, vice president for academic development,
stressed that "because we can’t
possibly predict the future, the

new colleges must provide many
options and many opportunities
for diversity and flexibility so
that the educational system will
be pertinent to students in years
to come.”
The colleges, he indicated, “will
be a living and learning experience and will hopefully put the
students in a situation where they
are learning in the same environ
ment in which they archiving.
“The new colleges will provide
a tremendous prospect to com-

bine small educational units with
the large University! system so
students won't have a sense of
alienation.”
The first six reflect the particular academic background and in-

terests of their masters. Idenlifed
only by the letters of the alphabet, these colleges will soon be
given names

Self development
College A has already been in-

stituted and is being coordinated
in its development by Fred M
Snell, dean of the Graduate
School. He explained that "stu
dents and faculty are self selec
ted. The evolving theme, indeed
if any can be identified at the

moment, appears to be directed
towards a meaningful and relevant educational experience that
contributes to a greater understanding and full development
of the self, the group and the society.
“Programs are being planned
which call (or a great deal of interdigilation between the University and the society at large. Although the College will provide
certain facilities on the Amherst
campus, including housing for 250
Page Six
(

•

undergraduates, 150 graduate students and ten faculty, a swim
ming pool, a student club and a

social science interaction labor

atory, it is anticipated that many

residents will be housed in facilities provided' in the communities
of the Buffalo area, where many
of the College programs will be
located.”

Allen Sapp, director of the Cultural Affairs Office, is the master of College B. It will house a
drama workshop, and according
to Mr. Sapp, “an environment of
theater and music and art will
lend an ooen invitation to serious
intermediate work in criticism
and to the production of combined media forms.
“The College will strongly rest
on a series of four-week seminars
dealing with art and magic, arts
and science, technology and artistic experience and language
and art. Tutorials in groups no
larger than seven will be normal
for second year students to the
limit of staff time of College Follows."

College E, with Mac Hammond,
Faculty of Arts and Letters,
as master, will focus on interdisciplinary studies, particulary
film and media. Iniguistics and
utopian thought. It will house
some married students and will

have extra-flexible classroom
space.

College F will create a new
setting for the study of polities
and social reform. Charles Planck,
Faculty of Social Sciences and
Administration, is the master of

the

college.

Participants in political movements and social experiments
from outside the University will
be invited for lengthy periods of
teaching. Student and faculty experience in such extra-academic
activities will be an equally valu-

able part of the curriculum.

The College will be run as a cooperative-students and faculty
themselves will operate the facilities and determine the social
rules themselves.

Program proposals

The next six colleges will be
selected on the basis of programs

rather than masters, according to
Dr. Bcnnis, although it is expected that proposals for programs will identiy potential masters.
Faculty or students who have
an idea for a college which they
think would make a contribution
to the academic and social goals
of Ihe Universily community are
invited by Dr, Bennis to submit
it to him.
The Collegiate Committee and
the Faculty Senate Committee on
Educational Planning and Policy

will serve as screening and re
view bodies for the proposals. The
criteria which will be used in
.evaluating the proposals are:
Is the proposal different
from the first six colleges? Is it
•

innovative?

Does it provide a high de
gree of faculty and student par
•

ticipation?

Are there individuals or
groups capable and committed to
actively work in the College? Pro
posals should include their names,
and suggestions for a master, if
•

possible.
Only those proposals received

before Jan. 31 will be considered
for the next group of six colleges
Within a month, a revised ar
chitectural master plan for the
entire site will be released, ac
cording to Robert L. Ketter, vice
president for facilities planning.

Experimental classroom

Humanitarian uses of science
and technology will be the broad
theme of the "physical, mental
and moral constitution of College
C," according to its master. John
Huddleston, provost of the Faculty of Engineering and Applied
Sciences.
This College will have a computer access facility open to users
at all times and an experimental
classroom equipped for computeraided instruction, rapid information retrieval and for audio visual display.

“It will be considered a basic
right of the student to decide for
himself w hether he will be graded
on ibis work for any courses
taught in the college
Lyle Borst, of the Faculty of
Natural—Sciences and—Malhemalics, is the master of College D,
which will
have extra-flexible
classroom space rather than a
particular facility. It will place
emphasis on the sciences, with
”

half of the students within the Faculties of Natural, En-

perhaps

ginecring and Applied and Health
Sciences.
In this college one hour per

week will be reserved for each
student to meet with his faculty
tutor.

College A has been having
meetings for the last six weeks
attempting to define what it is,
where it is going, who will belong to it, what education is and

should be and hundreds of other
related issues.
Much of the discussion has
centered around how the college
will or should work to fight militarism and racism in this country. They are attempting to find
out what the college can do to
end “horrendous institutions.”

Interspersed .with this discussion is the attempt to define what
racism is, what institutions foster
racism, what actions by what
groups of people foster racism
and where to attack racism.

A large portion of the membership is deeply concerned with
the socialization process within
the University environment. They
are interested in having the college work on fostering the growth,
maturation and self-actualization
of the members. One of the tools
for achieving this, and one which
is frequently discussed, is sensitivity training. This is a method
of working within small groups
to bring about greater self-actualization and a greater ability to
interact with people. It involves

scheme is very flexible and
wastes no funds.” N, L, Caruso,
a Syracuse architect, described

his plans for student housing
units which are being considered
in conjunction with the new campus for the State University of
Buffalo.
At a joint meeting of Housing
Eliminates Lots of Problems
(HELP) and Mark Twain Hall Associates—a private group which
has built housing units at several
community colleges in New York
State—plans were disclosed for
cooperative dorms which are to
be built in the Amherst vicinity,
"We can give you a basic building with all the necessities,” Mr.
Caruso continued, “along with a
unit that can be adjusted to fit
any person’s needs.”
Mr. Caruso then discussed the
type of building which his firm
would provide. Due to New York
State code and certain zoning restrictions, structures would be
two and one-half stories high, of
which one-half story would be
constructed below ground level.
Concerning building materials,
Mr. Caruso said a wood frame
structure would be expensive, but
would not hold up as well as
others.

Pinwheel plan'
“Masonery would be more expensive,” he continued, “however
it w ill hold up very well and also
bring better insurance rates.
Therefore, we could build a two

and one-half story masonery
building and you would be getting the most for your money.”
He

then discussed the

floor

plan for each unit, terming it the
“pinwheel plan.” Each floor has
four apartments, individually accommodating four persons. The

apartments would be structured

center lounge, approximately 18 feet by 31 feet. Each
apartment has four bedrooms, 7ti
feet by 8 feet in size. Two small
lounges, 7% feet by 4 feet are included in the apartment, one
around a

lounge connected to each pair of
bedrooms. The complex includes
a kitchenette to be used by the
four occupants and one moderate

sized bath.
There would be 16 persons liv-

ing on each floor, with a total of
48 persons living in the entire
building. This was termed “very
uncrowded and convenient” by
Mr. Caruso.

Sun roof
The center lounge on the first
floor would have an open top with
a sun roof over the entire lounge.
The sub-ground level area would
be used as a TV lounge whereas
the upper lounge could be used
to house social activities.
“There is a great need for student housing today,” Mr. Caruso
added, “but that may not be the
case five years from now. This is
why we are providing something
extremely flexible which can be
used in many other ways.”
Among the other uses, Mr. Caruso mentioned infirmaries, due

Hi gh school curriculum on Vietnam

University employees
involved in book-burning
by Daniel Lasser
Manaiaini Editor

A widely acclaimed high school curriculum on the Vietnam War and related topics was published yesterday by the
New York Review.

Printing of the 350-page Vietnam Curriculum, written by
five Boston, Mass., teachers, w as originally begun last summer at the State University of Buffalo; however, after approximately 25r c of the finished project was completed, the
reproduced materials were burned by Central Services em-

r

ployees.

Walter Popper, one of the
five teachers who had formed
the “Vietnam Curriculum
Group,” said in a telephone
interview’ that a vice president in the University administration had stopped the
printing because it was decided that University funds
could not be used for the
project.
He said that at that point, “the
printer had gone through about
one-quarter" of the printing, and
it became "clear that he had
burned it up with the sanction
of someone in the central administration."

Officials deny burning

Laurie Garbutt, supervisor of
the campus print shop, denied
that any materials had ever been
burned or destroyed in his shop.
Mr. Garbutt said that “no work
was done on it," and that the
negatives and plates for the
photo-offset job had been return
ed ihlaet.
The Centra! Services print shop
falls under the direction of A.
Westley Rowland, vice president
for University relations. Dr. Rowland said he could not remember
such a project, and commented
on the destruction of materials
in the shop: "No, I’m sure that

couldn’t happen,"
He later said that he “vaguely"
remembers "something about
that,” but that tne materials
were not printed here due to
"copyright problems.”

Warren Bennis, vice president
for academic development, said
that he and Joan McGregor, another member of the “Vietnam
Curriculum Group,” brought the
project to Buffalo the week of
April 2 to see if it could be
printed ‘here.
Dr. Fred Snell, dean of the
graduate school, took the materials, which consisted of four
mimeographed volumes, to the
Faculty of Educational Studies to
see if they would fund the print
ing. Dr. Snell said he felt the
project might be classed as "curri-

He was told "some slight hitch"
seemed to be holding up the
printing in Buffalo.
In August, when it became
evident that the printing could
not be completed here, the graduate school notified the print shop
that all materials already completed would be removed, and
that the job would be completed
by a commercial printer. Four
days later, Mr. Garbutt reportedly
said that only the original materials needed to be picked up,
since the copies that had been
produced had been burned.
The graduate school was re

in printing the volumes that wore

New edition
The edition published yesterday by the New York Review
is approximately 50 pages longer
than the originally mimeographed
version brought to Buffalo. Mr,
Hopper explained that the first
edition was finished in March
1968, and was distributed to individual Boston-area high school
teachers, who used it in “bits”
in their English and history
courses.
By the end of the spring sem
ester, the group had decided to
have a second, revised edition
printed for wider circulation, and
their trail led to Buffalo.
They had hoped to have the
•new edition ready for the fall
fiemestcr, Mr. Popper said, but

it wasn’t until the end of August

Educational Studies.
“History &amp; Issues of the
War,” which “seeks to give the

the American role in the war.”
“Impact of the War,” which
contains a unit on the politics of

'students as individuals'
Of the curriculum, Dr. Friedenberg wrote: “High school students
who are given the opportunity to
see the Vietnam Curriculum may
thereby conclude that the high
school has finally come to respect
them as individuals . .
Wayne O'Neil, professor of humanities at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, wrote that the
curriculum “exhibits a level of acand scholarship unknown
to the world of school texts, very
often absent in the world of college texts. The curriculum demonstrates that it is possible to
deal with topics of current and
vital interest in an honest, forthright and understanding way."

Vo drug report
The much-delayed report of the University Committee on Drugs and the Campus still has not been
released. Originally scheduled for release at the
end of October, the report was based in part on a
student survey conducted in September 1967 concerning the use of drugs on campus.
Cedric Smith of the Faculty of Health Sciences,
chairman of the committee, submitted
the report
to President Meyerson's office "some time ago."

�Malcolm X: ‘Revolution

Malcolm X in 1964 in Detroit:,

this word “revolution” loosely, without

means and what its historic char-

“Look at the American Revolution in
1776. That revolution was for what? For
land. Why did they want land? Independence. How was it carried out? Bloodshed. Number one, it was based on land,
the basis of independence. And the only
way they could get it was bloodshed. The

What was it for? Land. How did they
get it? Bloodshed. Was no love lost, was

to be violent defending black wpmen and

draft us, and teach us how to be violent

and me to do whatever is necessary to

that was a revolution. They overturned the

is in Africa, and the white man is screaming because he sees revolution in Latin

To my Darker Brother
Some of you desire to cast off the stigma Negro (knee-grow). You wonder what
can I do? Should I wait until after graduation to help my people? Reflecting a
moment on the problem that has plagued
the climbing browns, “the higher I go, the
whiter I get.”
My black identity is lost as I become
more and more a Negro (white man’s
unage). The further up the ladder a person climbs, the harder it is to reach back
to pull up those he left behind. Once in
the establishment (you may think), problems will bombard the individual; conform! conform!! , . . Negro. You’ve lost
the drive to help, you’ve lost your soul.
What are your plans after graduation?
Do you plan to become white? Your mind
might make—it, but—bleach won’t solve
your skin problem.

Intermarriage to the Jew means marriage without conversion. 1 seek black
conversion. After you have pushed your
darker brother into his duty, try to convert some of the whites/hlack. If the old
people prove too white, wait for their
death: all men must die, a universal
certainty. Work on your own generation,
keep them from repeating history, make
them black. If your generation remains
white, the blacks will destroy them. This

Stokely distinguishes
black man and Negro
by Percy L. Lambert
Recently this reporter and four other
black students had the opportunity to attend the “Towards a Black University Conference" held at Howard University in
Washington, D.C. More than 1900 people
crowded Cramton Auditorium to hear
Brother Stokely Carmichael give the opening address at the conference.
It was truly a night worth remembering
as Brother Carmichael emphasized the
need for an education which develops human beings rather than technology. The
people therd all possessed a feeling of
warmth as one rubbed shoulders, not with
one’s adversaries from across the nation
and across the ocean
but with “those
of us who have been dehumanized.”
To Brother Carmichael, education is an
instrument to provide the means for the
production of the basic needs of a society
food, shelter and clothing. It should
also preserve the basic values of that society.
“Black people are colonized.” He had
first promised to speak very slowly, and
he kept his promise throughout, not once
resorting to the emotional tactics associ—

themdency of making
selves and not the common adversary, according to Brother Carmichael. That selfhate psyche must be undone, he emphasized. There are two ways to do this.
One way is entertainment, when we
make fun of the oppressor because of
fear," he said. This is necessary, but is,
nevertheless, insufficient because it only
relieves the inferiority complex, but does
not obliterate self-hatred. For todays
student, there is no time for partying and
entertainment, said Brother Carmichael.
Black students must therefore move into
the second phase of the decolonization

he said. "Honkies created Uncle Toms,"
he added. To be ready is to be willing to
live, to fight, and kill for one's own people,
not only because one hates white people,
he. emphasized. "Every Negro is a potential Black man,” is the second theme
in the educational process. “I was a Negro
once,” he confessed.
Although a Negro helps contribute to
a society which oppresses him, he still remains a potential Black man because those
who purport to be ready are in a minority.
His contention was that because we live
in the same conditions, Negroes will neces-

“We cannot say, Tm not going to talk
to a Negro,' he said. “My mother is more

He added that it is difficult to be a revolutionary

which followed, he left his audience with
this quote from Frantz Fannon:

requires the students to analyze the situation. This to the Brother is the hardest
part because there is not enough time.
“The man won’t allow any more of these

Three concepts
There are three concepts to the educational process. First, “Black people must
have an undying love for our people,” he

In a meeting in the Burchfield
Center in Rockwell Hall, Charles
La Morte, vice president for Student Affairs, categorically denied
that the students were “dismissed” and that there were, in fact,
seven of them involved.

The students, led by Lee Nichols, said that seven students were
asked to leave —or were, in effect, dismissed—because they had
used drugs.

In answer to the question,
“Why is pot illegal?”, Cedric
Smith of the Faculty of Health
Sciences answered: “Laws aren’t
passed for medical reasons” and
laws are inconsisthe
tent in context with reality.”

history.

Dr. Smith spoke Wednesday on
the effects of marijuana in the
second of a three part series sponsored by the Inter-Residence
Council. Pharmacology, the department of which Dr. Smith is
chairman, is the study of the
effects of drugs on living tissue,
might cause the subject to lose

Dr. Siggelkow also expressed
the opinion that the local news
media made “a big circus out of

the whole affair.”
“It’s always the University
that’s singled out,” he said.

Mr. Youen stated at the outset
that there were only four involved and not seven. He also denied that any parental committee
was formed, nor was any investigator hired.
He indicated that the College
“can’t have another Stony Brook.”
He said that an “off-campus”
anonymous source informed
them that certain freshman students had been using drugs. He
claimed that some of them had
been missing from class for
weeks.
The students were then asked,

C«N. IBIW.CO..BOCH., N.Y,

Dr. Smith considers marijuana
a drug in that it affects brain
tissue and that the magnitude of
the effect is in direct proportion
to the amount of the drug consumed and the strength of the
drug. Marijuana takes effect in
ten to 15 minutes and has its
peak effect after 45 minutes, he
said.
Dr. Smilh claimed that the effects of marijuana and hashish
are identical to those of LSD on
the nervous system, except that
the former cause the subject to
need sleep and cause the veins
in the subject’s nose and eyes to
expand, causing his eyes to dilate.

The speaker said that marijuana has no known effect on
the fetus. However, he stressed
that an effect “not known doesn’t
paean no effect.” The effects of
chronic ingestion of marijuana
and hashish aren’t known, although Dr. Smith suggested that

according to him—off-the-record
and in confidence—if they had
indeed used drugs on campus.
They admitted that they had and
were then advised that they
would be allowed to withdraw
with an unblemished record if
they wished. If they stayed, it
was apparent that charges might
be brought against them before
the Student Conduct Committee.
Mr. Youen stressed that no disciplinary action was taken.

None of the students in question chose to attend the meeting.
After LaMorte and Youen
spoke on the specific incident, the
conversation drifted into the general area of student rights. A
good portion of this was conducted by the ACLU lawyers and apparently the members of the administration were not aware that

they were being quizzed by attorneys. At the beginning of the
meeting, Dr. LaMorte was under
the impression that most of the
members of the group were “con-

cerned students.”

and dealers. They attended several classes and meetings at the
State University of Buffalo over
a four-month period prior to this

'

They further alleged that members of the administration had
waved in the students’ faces affadavits from witnesses and had
given them the choice of “voluntary” withdrawal or student and
possibly civil prosecution. They
also contended that a committee
of parents had hired a private investigator who reported the use
of drugs by the students.

mcnt, and that he might have a
decrease in personal emotion and
anxiety.
i

Dr. Smith also suggested that

users might have had

greater

insights into their life styles, and
therefore changed them accordingly, He pointed out that no one
knows for sure which is the case
from medical experimentation.

He indicated that marijuana
and hashish induce “suggestibility,” causing the subject to have
a “rapid train of thought, which
is easily derailed and replaced
ty another train of thought,
along completely different lines
from the first.”
The set of expectations and
the surroundings are therefore
very important in the end result
of the effect upon the user. “The
user gets what he wants.”

Dr. Smith, in conclusion, said
that in general the toleration to
marijuana and hashish decreases
as the number of doses increases,
because the user begins to understand and search for those effects
which are most pleasurable.

�‘Dream Songs’ poet

Berryman reading set
Berryman is without question the most original, powerful,
and psychologically exploratory
of contemporary poets—and this
goes for the language, too, which
he has made his own. These
poems are an endless delight and
an endless discovery.”

Berryman will also read from
his recently published volume
His Toy, His Dream, His Rest.
The New York Times Book Review placed the volume in this
year’s top ten, admiring “the
jazzy discordant work of undeniable tragic power.”

Over the past 15 years, Berryman has been writing Dream
Songs. These poems, three stanzas of six lines each, involve an
imaginary character (not the poet)
named Henry—a white American
in early middle age, sometimes
in blackface, who has suffered an

Flexible, swift, abrupt and nervous, the Dream Song* have an
enigmatic air and yet they are
desperately personal. The dream
form permits compression, parallelism, displacement and vicious
insight while seeming spontaneous.

language alive. Berryman creates

blend of passion and irony.

to try its luck on Broadway.
In the space of 85 minutes “Yellow Submarine” manages
to make all other animated cartooning look like pre-Disney,
and illustrates a kind of stoned-out creativity that no amount
of TV copy-catting could ever duplicate.

Add to this some of the
group’s best music, a storm
of outrageous puns and oneliners of the sort that endeared “A Hard Day’s Night”
and “Help!” to critics, and a
sure-fire, honest-to-God classic emerges. The film may
well find its final resting
place in the collection of the
Museum of Modern Art’s
Film Library, though Lennon
would blanch at the idea.

Lennon and Ono
a sell portrait

On music and understanding
by Steve Halpern
Special to The Spectrum

Did you think today, or last
week, or have you ever given
any thought as to how music affects you the way it does, or why
it does? Not necessarily involving a theory of aesthetics but
simply the timbre (color-texture)
of a sound, the succession of
intervals which make up the melody and the harmonic support
(chords) which tells your ear
"what the melody means.”
Getting back to what Fred
Weintraub and A1 Heineman
were saying during the Pop Festival panel discussions: You must
be more discriminating and
knowledgeable an audience to
know why you like what you like,
and not to just follow a fad.
Is it enough to get the “feel
of the music" harmonically, or
must you physically feel the
sheer volume of sound with the
muscle fiber of your body? To
say you really dig “music” is too
vague a response. It now seems

important to clarify exactly what
it is that is generally referred
to as “music.” Case in point:
Buddy Guy’s music was as much
a blues sound as a performance

of every trick in the book.
When it comes right down to
it, why would most of you out
there in audience-land rather
hear, in essence, something “just
like the record" (non-original,
imitative) than an
individual
musican’s creative, personal statement of how and what he feels?

You say you don’t understand
it, give me music to groove my
head, without an awareness of
the impliet contradicton. Revival
of the sort of 1958 simple music
—every song the same, repeating
basic 12-bar blues chord progression which you seem never to tire
of-—is not indicative of a progressing higher plane of appreciation that is still appealed to by
many listeners.

sophisticated as a Victorian

waltz.
Have you, perhaps, evaluated

or considered why the revival
trend, why the same ol’ crappy

chords and beat, ad nauseam?
Dick Clark: “I give it 10 points.
It has a good beat. Y'can dance
to it." Is this all that matters?

Why are you put uptight by
“dangerous” music? Why is there
no place in Buffalo to go to hear
interesting, adventurous music
that can be danced to as well as

listened to?

Feed back will be enjoyed by
the arts editor.

are telescoped and blown out and
the art-work seems to proceed
along several planes at once.
Reading the paperback based on
the movie gives no sense at all of
the depth achieved by the dozens

of artists who contributed to the
film.

Things are used liberally in and
with the animation; in the Beatles’ house (called the “Pier”) dozens of doors are opened, loosing
floods of abjects, art, props and
crap. Another arresting technique
is punching holes in the cartoon
track and filling the spaces with
clips of regular movie film; the
effedt is used fo good advantage
during the song “Eleanor Rigby.”

John, Paul. Ringo and George
arc pure Caricature; but they
bear no resemblance to the way
they appear on Saturday morning television. Tall, lean and colorful, they ooze through the film
with the ease of fluidity of musical tones and with the same l’ma-household-word suavity of the
real four.
They deliver some really awful
plays on words without a shiver
and complete their plays without
ever descending to low’ comedy—leaving that to the other members
of the “cast.” It all comes off as

mid-self-satire, which saves them
from Monkees-like buffoonery. As
usual, Ringo plays

foil to

the

other three, Lennon lays down
most of the patter, while Paul
and George concentrate on the
music.
‘Liverpool can be a lonely

place on Saturday night—and it’s
only Thursday morning.” reflects
a morose Ringo. just before he
notices the garishly colored submersible that is following him
through the streets. The craft is

and recently appointed Admiral

come for help in freeing Pepper-

land from the domination of the

five of them set out on the return

waters of the Seas of Science.
Time, Monsters and Holes, re-

spectively. They stop to pick up
Jeremy the Boob, a Nowhere Man

who writes his own novels simultaneously and claims to hold degrees in every field there is.

Singing conquers all
Their reception on arrival is
quiet, because all of Pepperland’s
fashion-plate people have been

bleached of color and left paralyzed by the Meanie attack Of
course, the Beatles drive the blue
barbarians out with sleight-ofhand, impersonation, music and a
lot of love, and the ending is properly happy. Even the Chief Blue
Meanie repents of his war crimes
and joins in the singing. This is
almost the end of the film—splashy, rainbow-tinted and joyous—except for a brief clip in
which the real Beatles appear to
advise the audience that more
Meanics have been sighted in the
area, and that everyone had better leave the theater singing.
Blue Meanics, the Beatles assure us, are everywhere—those

who hate music and love and color and fun. And, as if to show
that even such a light-hearted
epic as Yellow Submarine makes
its point, we have it on the best
authority that in San Francisco
kids have switched from calling
cops "pigs" to calling them—you

The barrage has begun. It
starts as a trickle in early November, and really swings out after
Thanksgiving the minute Macy's
Santa starts down 34th Street.
Christmas is coming, and the toy
companies are getting fat.
Once upon a time, Robert
Louis Stevenson, with three
pillows at his head, would amuse
himself with a half-dozen toy
soldiers. A similar prospect would
be enough to send the modern
child to psychiatric counselling.
Through the miracle of television,
he is primed for weeks beforehand
to evaluate his parents' love by
the amount and the price of his
Christmas gifts. Like Mom and
Dad who impress their neighbors
with discarded Color TV cartons,
their offspring will undergo
serious personality crises if December 26th doesn't find the
garbage man toting away the
wrappings of this year's status
toys. The toy itself might not
make it to New Year's Day, but a
kid's got to have something to
show his friends.

Jr. Russian Roulette
Among this season's goodies
are such items as Pie Face, the

toddler's Russian Roulette. The
child places his face in a special
cut out frame and spins a wheel
which tells him how many times

Hockeymen lose
to Oswego State
by

Rich Baumgarten

In a rematch between the two
top teams in the Finger Lakes

Hockey League, the Oswego State
Lakers trimmed the State University of Buffalo Bulls 4-1 Saturday night before 500 fans at the
Amherst Recreation Center.

Oswego, which captured the
league title a year ago by defeating Buffalo 54 in overtime,
combined a crisp passing game
with a vicious power play to once
again upend the Bulls, Bruce
Boisson, a former ECAC scoring
champion, led, the Lakers’ assault with two goals, while Dicky
Blais and Greg Segar each notclv
ed singletons. Billy
Newman
scored for Buffalo to avert a

shutout.
It was obvious

from the game’s
outset that the Bulls were not
getting the breaks they needed
to upset Oswego. In the scoreless

first period alone, Buffalo had at
least three golden opportunities

to score and not once were the
Bulls able to dent the nets. Defenseman Jimmy Miller hit a
wide open post with Oswego's

Dave Kubissa leaning the
wrong way.
Just one minute later, Jim
McKowne took a quick shot on
which the Oswego goalie made
a miraculous skate save. Then
Bob Albano was robbed on a
shot that the Oswego netminder
stopped without ever having seen
the puck.

Tuesday,

Boisson opened the scoring for
Oswego at 6:48 of the second
period on a perfect goalmouth
pass from Kruse. Dunn never had
a chance to stop the shot. Boisson
then upped the Lakers’ lead to
2-0, clicking on a blazing tenfooter at the 10:52 mark. Only
some; excellent saves by Dunn
kept'Oswego from mounting up
the score as the Buffalo goaltender robbed Kruse and Sigar, both
of whom had breakaway shots.
Down by two goals, still in the
second period, the Bulls attempted to storm badk, but again
Lady Luck turned her back on
the “Blue and White.” Terry
Quenville missed a sure goal
when his drive from in front
of the goal just failed to trickle

past Oswego’s goalie. Then Tom
Caruso and Jim McKowne both
were thwarted on great saves by
Kubissa, and Buffalo fans were

beginning to wonder just what
it would take to score a goal.
Billy Newman finally scored
for the Bulls at the 19:25 mark
of the second stanza on a picture
play goal. Taking a pass at the
Oswego blue line, Newman split
the defense and whistled a sixfooter past a startled Kubissa.
That made the score 2-1, and
the Bulls were still in the game.

Last-ditch effort
The third period was probably

the

most exciting and action-

packed of the game. While Dunn
was staving off the fierce Oswego
rushes, the Bulls were trying desperately to tie the score.
Greg Segar all but dimmed Buffalo's hopes for a victory when
he circled the Bulls' net and
jammed the puck behind Dunn
for a 3 1 Oswego lead. “I never
saw him behind the net,” said
Mike after the game. Oswego
then iced the contest when Dicky
Blais scored on a long screen
shot that just found the corner
of the Buffalo goal. That proved
to be the final margin of victory
as Oswego left the ice with 4-1
triumph.

In the preliminary contest, the
baby Bulls, behind 5-foot 9-inch

defense that continually harassed
Canisius’ attack, t h e Mutomen
came back to take the lead at
halftime, 33-29.
In the second half, the frosh
were sparked by the all-around
hustle of Willie Raspberry and
the rebounding and shooting of
Bob Cabbagcstalk. With the game
deadlocked at 63-all, after the
lead had changed hands almost
as many times as Paul Maguire
punted for the Bills this year,
Gilliam caught fire and hit three
straight buckets to up the score
to 69-63, The count then mounted
to 71-66 before Canisius scored
two quick baskets in the last 10
seconds of play.
Buffalo was led by the sharpshooting Gilliam, who hit on 12
of 32 floor attempts and Cabbagestalk, with nine of 21 field goals.
The white-shirted yearlings
shot 43%—31 of 72 from the
field—while the Griffs made 29
of 65 shots, for 44%. Canisius
led at the free throw line with 12
of 19 charity tosses to the home
team's nine of 18.
The Baby Bulls bossed the
boards, gathering in 46 rebounds
to Canisius' 40. High men for
Buffalo in this department were
Cabbagestalk With 10 retrieves
and Eric Rasmussen with nine.

Hoofbeats:

This was the first game in a
new series between intersectional rivals. The Monarchs, coached
by William “ijonny” Allen, hail
from Norfolk,' Virginia. They won
19 of 26 games last season despite
a rugged schedule which sees
them playing many top Southern
schools.
The yearlings’ victory over
Canisius brought their season
mark to four wins, no losses . . .

�effects of liberation

by William Yates
Special to The Spectrum

This is the last in a

three-part series on “Que

Linda es Cuba."

Shortly after arriving in Havana I had an experience
that socked to me Cuba’s liberation. I had gone to the Tricontinental headquarters to talk to the staff and on leaving
took with me a bundle of leaflets, pamphlets and posters.

I then went to lunch at the
hotel Havana Libre. The Libre is the former Havana Hilton and it retains some of the
intimidating aura of the
haute bourgeoisie.
As I entered the elegant dining
room the maitre d’ took my arm
and in doing so dislodged my
bundle of papers. In a peak of
shock I saw the papers fall and
spread over the floor in a fan of
riotous inflammatory colors and
calls to arms, to revolution, to
death to imperialism and and the

bourgeoisie. (The Tricontinental
is a clearing house for liberation
struggles on three continents.)
I thought: This is it! I better
split! I could feel J. Edgar’s hot
breath with right behind him all
the Feds, the CIA and the marines besides But before 1 could
make it under a table, I saw the
maitre d’ calmly picking up my
papers. Not a single diner looked
disturbed. I was given my papers

and shown to my table.
Of course my reaction was extreme. Extreme for that social
context, but quite reasonable in
the cold war psycho-grip of the
U.S. In comparing the two con-

texts I began clearly to perceive
the dimensions of Cuba’s liberation.

When the men and women of
Cuba turned on the former state
of their society and began the
still continuing struggle to overthrow it and to build a new man
in a better society, they began
each of them directly to confront
reality. To them history is tangible. This is their true libera-

lion, and its effect has been fruitful across a wide spectrum of
activities.

'Medical revolutionary'
1 heard it, for instance, in the
words of the chief physician of
the Lenin Hospital in Holguin.
We were standing on the roof of
the hospital and Holguin lay
spread out below us. His arm
swept across the sectors of the
city as he pointed out the areas
of new housing and contrasted
them with the old.
He enumerated the sanitary superiorities of the new. “I knowthem,” he said, ‘‘I was born in
the old and I’m working in the
building of the new,” Every area
has its medical committee
through which the area’s physicians directly participate in all
aspects of community activities.
In the planning and construction
of new housing, for example,
physicians work closely with architects and engineers to ensure
a healthy environment, “In Cuba
medicine is preventive, not just
curative,” he said. “I, like all doctors here, am a medical revolutionary. We learned that to establish preventive medicine we had
to break the hold of imperialism.”
Where before the Revolution
the few physicians that were
trained practiced mainly in Havana, there is now a public health
network of medical committees
extending from the grassroots to
the national level organized across
all the land.
In a local policlinic (at Chivirico in the Sierra Maeslre where
now there arc the policlinic and

a hospital) the physician on duty

described how before in the area
the people had been without
medical care, dying in their sicknesses. “The closest medical facility was in Santiago and there
were no roads. The only way
there was on a lumber boat
owned by the Babun family, who
owned all the land here. The boat
sailed when it had a load of lumber and it took a sick person only
if there was space left after loading. Now we care for them locally
and if necessary there are roads
and transportation to Santiago to
the larger hospitals. When a patient comes in we use the occasion to give a little education in
medicine. We talk about hygiene,
sanitation and proper food and
care. We follow up with visiting
teams of medical workers. We
know the state of health of every
person in our area.”
Educational drive
I saw it in the numerous
schools. As Fidel said: “In an
era in which there is much talk
of educational reform, we will
carry out what may prove to be
the greatest educational revolution to be carried out anywhere.”
The goal is, as he said in another
speech (Fidel speaks often about
education), “to make the entire
country into an immense university.”
Schools are everywhere. Former army barracks and fortresses
are now schools. The infamous

Moncada (where the armed struggle started on July 26, 1953) is
now a primary school. What was
once Camp Columbia, Batista's
stronghold and the headquarters
of the U.S. Military Advisory
Group, is now the Camilo Cienfuegos School City for thousands
of scholarship students. At least
23 other former army centers

versity. Many of the students receive free clothing, food and
housing. Workers who leave work
to attend school continue to re-

ceive their full pay.

Fidel puts it this way: “Education is a profound need in any
modern society. Technology is becoming increasingly complex;
technology is becoming increasingly difficult to master and
handle without profound knowledge. And if our country aspires to complete development in
every field, the day must come

when the workers in every factory study.”

Science and art also display the
fruitful effect of liberation.
Science in Cuba before the Revolution had had little encouragement. U.S. corporations had supplied from their mainland laboratories the required research for
their subsidiaries in Cuba. They
also attracted, in that process
called the “brain drain,” most
Cuban-educated scientists. Now
the National Academy of Sciences
stands at the head of a complex
national scientific structure that
is integrated at all points into
the political economy.

A meteorologist gave me this
example. “Rainfall, for instance,
before the Revolution was almost
entirely unrecorded. A few of
the sugar mills kept records of
their local areas for certain
months, but there was never any
consistent countrywide attempt.
For example, when they were
planning the dams for the reservoirs and irrigation network
in the Sierra Maestre Mountains,
the hydrographers asked us about
the annual rainfall in the area,
and there were no records so we

are now schools.

couldn’t tell them.

Free schools
All the schools are free to
everyone, from primary to uni-

We have records now for every
area in the country. We know the
rainfall, we’ve measured the flow
of the rivers over time—including
the underground rivers that discharge out on the continental
shelf, we’ve mapped all the surface bodies of water, calculated
surface loss, and we’ve related
these to consumption by industry and public and private use.
We know every drop of water on
the island.” His work is part of a
project to conserve and to allocate water to the national economy in the most rational way. The
project includes as a later stage
a canal along much of Cuba’s
coastline to gather the run off
so not a single drop will go unsaved into the sea.

Revolution in art
The Revolution has had an explosive effect in arts. Cuba is
now easily the foremost art center of Latin America. Painting,
music, poetry, dance, theater,
films, all are in vigorous growth.

Santiago Alvarez, whose

awards
said: “The work of any creative
person depends on his
believing
in the work he is doing, individual initiative can be carried out
more effectively when such confidence exists. Moreover, the creative person—who has a highly
developed sense of responsibility
toward himself and toward the
Revolution, in every respect—contributes to the advance of revolutionary work. The individual,
as such, in our Revolution is the
Revolution’s most important asset. Respect for individuality
should be, and is, to a great extent, the real success of our Revolution.”

With the growth of the publishindustry, Cuban poets and
novelists now have an access to
publication they never before
had. A young poet’s first book,
for example, will sell two to three
thousand copies—an impressive
amount even by U.S. standards.
Afro-Cuban origin.

The Party
These diverse fruitful effects of
liberation have been encouraged
and guided by the Partido Communista de Cuba (and its predecessors, the OKI and the PURS).
The Party was defined for me by
one of its top members as “being
in all things and guiding all

things.”

“Unlike the East European
countries and Russia,” he said,
“the Party is the government and
the government is the Party.” The
present form of the Party is the
result of the progressively increasing rapprochement between
the people and the leaders of the
Revolution. The process of rapprochment has been dialectical as
each, the leaders and the people,
have become increasingly aware
of the needs and goals of their
Revolution. The process was summed up by Fidel when he said:
“We shall build the Party in discussion with the people.”
Given the commanding role of
the Party it is important to ask
how its members are chosen. The
answer is that they are elected
by their fellows in public assem
bly .at their work-centers or
schools. Each is nominated by his
fellows on the basis of his performance in three general categories: estudio, trabajo. fusil—
Study, work and the rifle: stu

Despite the unanimous backing
Lynd received from students, faculty members and the History
Department at Roosevelt, it is unlikely that the former Yale professor will be accepted at the

We wish you a merry Lovemas
To the editor.
The tradition of Christmas needs some spiritual
revitalization. Symbols of Christmas have all been
modernized: Homes are decorated with plastic nativities and metal “trees,” the concept of giving
has been expanded to include your favorite taxdeductible charity and the paperboy.
Christmas cards reproduce modern paintings
for the non-religious, Santa Claus arrives by helicopter. The rituals have been modernized and expanded beyond the basic Christian tradition, yet the
essence of the meaning of Christmas has been
either ignored by non-acceptors and doubters or
feebly clung to by traditionalists.
I propose that Dec. 25 be renamed Lovemas.

To the editor:
While understanding your desire for a student
voice in the Faculty Senate, my sympathy is
checked by my own exclusion from that body
along, with others who hold the rank of Lecturer.
I do not know the exact figures for the University,
but in my department about a third of the faculty
members have this rank.
There are several arguments for this exclusion:
That admission of lecturers would lead to a clamor
for recognition on the part of researchers, librarians, etc.; that membership in the Senate acts
as another enticement for Lecturers to finish their
dissertations and that Lecturers are not responsible
enough to deserve the franchise.
Counter arguments crowd the mind. Let me just

point out that in most departments Lecturers are
considered responsible enough to be given a threecourse load, rather than the normal two (this helps
in finishing the thesis, of course), so how can they
be too irresponsible to vote? (A version of the
“strong back, weak mind” argument might be used
in reply.)
Student representatives speak at Senate meetings, which may be tokenism but is more than
Lecturers get, if my experience at trying to get the
floor is the usual thing.
The Senate certainly has other important business on its hands, but I believe this question should
be considered. Perhaps there will be a re-enactment

Asks SDS to answer questions
To the editor:
The SDS resolution for an “open campus” had
as its premise the idea that only “open” organizations should be allowed to recruit on this Campus.
But if a company which comes on campus once a
year must bare its secrets, then doesn’t it follow
that an organization which is subsidized by the

University should also be open?
A recent issue of The Spectrum tells me that
the SDS gets $1000 a year from the Student Association. The SDSers have been given a room in
Norton Hall, and we can all rest assured that the

draft counselors will be in good company. With
this one group getting so much good uek, I am
reluctant to spoil the fun by asking if SDS is an

open organization.
Now 1 know that with its steadfast refusal to go
outside the law to achieve its end, SDS has nothing
to hide. Still there are many people who have

involvement in departments

To the editor:
In most of the departments at this University,
a few students sit on some of the committees and
can talk things over and even make proposals.
However, since students arc such a small minority
on these committees, and the fact that it is the
faculty and administration which make the ultimate
decisions (within guides set by the state), some of
us think that the structure should be changed in
order to include students in a more meaningful way.
It has vbeen argued that the students are too
apathetic to help in the actual decision-making, but
the responsibility for this situation can be laid at
the door of the administration which has exercised
so much control in continuing what we have here.
If students w'ere allowed to have more say in the
determination of policy and curriculum, of course
they would take far more interest in these matters.
It is not entirely an issue of competence that the
faculty and administration should have the total

questions. Is it true as reported in the Readers
Digest that SDS planning made the Columbia riot

say. It is also an issue of values in matters like
the nature and direction of the University, the
type of education one wants to receive, and the
style of life one wishes to pursue.
The connections of the University with industry
and with the ghetto are not solely issues of coni
pelence and even those aspects of the University
which are claimed to be neutral make this a committed place. But to what? Are we to allow this
to continue whereby these fantastically important
decisions to be made by people generally of another
generation?

Get involved in your department if you want
to sec things get changed. Most of us did not come
here to do the administration’s work, and in the
same way most of us didn’t come into the world
to reform it. But there are many things we have
found in both cases that make us want to look hack
on our institutions to change them so that we and
all of humanity can really become “all we are
capable of being.”

It has been argued with undeniable conviction
that this is not by any stretch of the imagination an
"open” campus. Can the NLF point of view be
expounded by a guest lecturer at a ROTC class?

The issue of free speech is equally muddled.

The throwing of eggs is, in a

are impinging on

Lewandowski’s statement that ‘ there is no police
brutality in the city of Buffalo” is a violation of
his freedom and an assault upon his person. (Psychological damage is just as bad as physical assault).

The Office of Planning and Development has said their
planning estimates for Amherst do not Include “labor difficulties.” Perhaps they should.

It is incredible insensitivity for a white person
not to understand why a black student should
react with an egg against the statement of Councilman Lewandowski, who himself has a long
history of racism and fascism in this city.

Back in September we suggested that in order to realistically evaluate all planning estimates, one should multiply
all numbers by two. The reasons for this suggestion were
based partially on past experience, and also involved a recognition of serious roadblocks threatening the Amherst site
construction.
The University finds its future threatened from both
sides in the labor dispute brewing at the Amherst site.
Strong elements of Buffalo’s black community, supported by many students and liberals in the city, are demanding that the University use the Amherst construction,
the largest in the state’s history, as the level to pry open
the lily-white doors of Western New York’s building trade
unions.
The University will find its past public rhetoric about
“equal opportunity” being tested in a muddy spring confrontation with Buffalo labor.
Full-scale boycotts, demonstrations, as well as the renunciation of the University by the black community loom
as imminent prospects, unless the University decides it wants
to be built by hands of all colors.
On the other side, the unions—long the havens of clannishness and Buffalo’s White Lower Middle—have the power
to close the site, in objection to State interference in union
affairs.

Is there student egg-throwing?
To the editor:

The Committee to Investigate Student EggThrowing today concluded its investigation of reports of alleged egg-throwing inflicted by students
upon citizens. The committee was formed to answer
the question: Is there student egg-throwing?
The committee reports that it has discovered
that the reports of student egg-throwing are false.
There is no egg-throwing among students. Now
that we have the facts, let us examine the charges,
and see just how this type of malicious rumor is

started. First of all, how could there be student
egg-throwing? The job of students is to study,
not to throw eggs at people.
It may be true that on occasion, certain students may over-react to something they are studying, but the committee has found no substantiated
evidence that this has ever resulted in, or been
related to, egg-throwing. We can only conclude
that such charges are the fabrication of those who
wish to discredit Buffalo’s fine student force.

December 13 I found it very interesting to note
that first an article was presented concerning the
very recent “egg-throwing” directed towards Councilman Lewandowski (another of Buffalo’s finest?),
and later another article was presented in the same
issue, concerning the vote for an open campus

Wednesday.

In light of the recent events occurring on this
campus, I feel it is necessary to reevaluate or
better yet, re-asses the implications of the term
"open campus.” If the concept of an open campus
is going to be a vehicle for the suppression of
academic freedom, of an individual’s right to freedom of expression, and most important of all, the
opportunity for open dialogue, then I am totally
against such a concept. If, however, this concept
is intended to promote all of the above, which I
believe it is, then I am in favor of such.

The suggestion for

state hiring halls to recruit minority
group members for Amherst work is pprhap? the most crucial. By requiring workers to join unions within seven days,
the proposal definitely is not aimed at “bypassing’ unions.

other strains, be now and forever banned from the

The unions, in effect, have done the hiring

industry.

It must be understood that if we are going to
have an open campus, we will have to, as mature
individuals, listen to what people like Mr. I.ewan
dowski have to say. Although I find his personal
views antagonistic to my own (to say the least)
and am of the opinion that statements, for
example, referring to those “African brushcuts as
a symbol of the lowest things we have in our
society” are indicative of the racist element predominant throughout our society, I am still willing
to listen to his views because it only reinforces
my beliefs that we are living in a sick society and
that change is necessary. You can't change society
by throwing eggs at it.

t

If we as participants, students, and members of
the educational world fail to listen to what Mr.
Lewandowski has to say, we might as well “hang

Given the alternatives, however, the Ua'veisity can require nothing less.

Calls for forum on academic freedom

The project in Amherst will need skilled workers, and
the unions were warned as long as four years ago of dramatic
increases in employment opportunities and the consequent
needs to increase apprenticeship programs, specifically by
opening them to non-whites. The union response has been
entirely tokenistic at best.

The Polity proposals also call for renewed personal commitment from University administrators. Personalities, as
well as construction plans, are going to have to be laid on
the line if the proposals are to be supported.

Rumors are being openly circulated that there is considerable support in the city’s Common Council today for a

It is time the citizens of Buffalo openly began to question
the integrity and responsibility of this city governing council
which thinks it can act so arbitrarily against the public interest. This is the same Common Council which has repeatedly
ignored pleas to investigate the beatings of students at the
Sixth Precinct, which has failed in its responsibility to enforce city open housing statutes, which has been almost
single-handedly responsible for the dismal deterioration of
the Buffalo public school system and which has perpetuated
one of the most corrupt political establishments in the state.

However, the credibility gap and political

overtones un-

covered in our investigations suggest that elements in the
University administration have a high potential for political
hanky-panky, coupled with a predeliction for lying.
We don’t know which is worse: the act itself; or its subsequent denial. Together, they clearly discredit the integrity
of the entire University, as well as that of the administration.
There can be no such thing as an “open campus” or an educational community based on mutual trust and respect as
long as such actions occur.

There are several really disturbing aspects of the weekend bust. It is clear that some of the tactics of the “undercover hippies” are legally questionable, notably their enactment of fake "buys” to entice unsuspecting students. It is a
credit to our cool that they got as few as they did. Also, one
wonders exactly how much of their flagrant law-breaking,

point of order
by Randall T. Eng

“The history of . , . war shows that modern war
must be fought on three fronts: the military front,
the economic front, and the propaganda front.”
This quote from Harold Lasswell is very appropriate when considering the war against racism in
this society. It also reminds us that last week’s eggthrowing incident delivered a brilliant victory to
the enemy in the form of a propaganda coup.
Councilman Lewandowski is a politician. He is
the veteran of much in-fighting and backroom maneuvering. His decision to accept the speaking invitation was probably not entirely motivated by the
spirit of good public service. At best, he hoped
to deliver a very bitter attack upon those who
would speak out against police brutality and injustice. Mr. Lewandowski was also aware that any
kind of hostile reception would bring him additional voles at the next election. In short, the
Councilman stood only to lose by being thrashed
in a verbal confrontation of views. There could
not have been any propaganda value in this type
of defeat. A major battle in the war against racism
in Buffalo could have been won if we had not
played so beautifully into his hands.

Mr. Donald Jackson is a man whose views are
so inflammatory that it is inconceivable to find
any group of sane individuals who would approve
of them. This is not to say that his position on
race relations is not widely held by many in this
community and elsewhere. On the contrary, Jackson
is not alone in his reactionary assessment of events.
Many students in the audience were justifiably outraged by the presence of Jackson on the panel. I
am in total sympathy with their repugnance for
this man. I am, however, also aware that loo many
people are naive to the sickness which this man
fosters and represents. Jackson’s arguments could
not have withstood the test of analystic discussion.
Instead of delivering him a significant setback, the
University community merely gave him excellent
material for one of his weekly broadcasts.
Silencing speakers through violent harassment

tactics was a very favorite trick of the Hitler brownshirt gangs of the late 1920s and '30s. The fascist
gangs were quite aware of the fact that the masses
can be manipulated by carefully channeling information to them. A very unfortunate precedent was
established in last week’s incident. Any organized
group can silence any speaker if it wishes to use
the same disruptive tactics. They can take comfort
in the knowledge that the University is still very
uncertain as to its policies governing an open campus and the right of free speech. While the wrangling continues, no one with controversial views is
really free to speak at this campus.
This afternoon at 3:30 p.m., another forum will
be held in the Fillmore Room. The topic will be

campus. Speaking at the forum will be members

of the academic community arc welcome to attend

begin to lay the groundwork for a coherent policy
on academic freedom now. The longer we hesitate,
the longer we leave the University in a limbo concerning free speech. This state of limbo can onlyaid those elements opposed to the free expression
of thought.

Calls SDS ‘irresponsible’
To the editor:
The rooms in Norton Hall should be reserved
for only those organizations which contribute to
the productivity of the University. Students for a
Democratic Society (SDS) does not fall into this
classification and consequently does not deserve
the privilege of its own office in Norton.
It is irresponsible. It appears bent on the destruc
tion of all conventional methods of organization.
Its tools —egg throwing, mob action and instigation
of violence and chaos
do not wahrant any recognition in our system of education.
Why can’t they set up headquarters in the tent
they were housed in earlier this year? A tent
seems more appropriate for this circus.

Praises student directory
To the editor.

I am pleased that there was a student directory
this year, especially after not having one last year
due to a mix-up with the printer. Twenty-five cents
is a very cheap price to pay for this convenience
which hasn’t been available for two years.
Of course there were mistakes and omissions,
but nobody is perfect. I feel that whoever put it
together did a fantastic job of digging out names
and addresses of apathetic students, like me, who
never bothered to fill out a card.

�Housing director explains
rationale for dorm fee hike

official says “some type of demonstration” will be held to coincide
with the inauguration of President elect Richard M. Nixon;
The Rev. Jefferson M. Rogers, head,of the Washington SCLC office, said that the type or length of the demonstration had not been
decided upon but he said it would be staged to “dramatize the plight
of black people to the new President,”

Spectrum Staff Reporter

“I regret that we now find it
imperative because of the sharp
rise on dorm borrowings and operating expenses to establish this
standard rate of $550, effective
July 1, 1969.” This memo was
sent to all State University of
New York presidents by Chancellor Samuel B. Gould last week
and initiated definite reactions
from concerned administrators
and students.

NEW YORK —-Police moved to crush defiant protests in two New
York city schools, arrested 20 persons in Harlem and the Ocean HillBrownsville section of Brooklyn, including two controversial Negro
administrators.
Patrolmen broke through a panel in a door at Harlem’s Public
School 39 and arrested 12 men and five women who were staging a
sit-in.

A railway engineers union threatened to stage the
PRAGUE
first crippling industrial strike in Czechoslovakia since the Stalinist
era of 1953.
The federation of Locomotive Engineers complained bitterly in a
newspaper statement it had been persecuted on orders of the Soviet
occupation authorities and had lost its government recognition.
—

The primary student objection
is that the authorities have raised
the dorm fee even though they
recognize that there can be no
additional expansion of dorm facilities on this campus. Thomas J.
Schillo, director of housing, explained that though students here
are helping to finance residence
construction on other SUNY campuses, those universities soon will
be aiding this University with the
cost of dormitory construction on
the Amherst campus. He added
that “in future years the charge
would be astronomically high” if
the cost were proportional to the
amount of residence construction
on each campus.

PARIS
The Viet Cong’s National Liberation Front (NLF) announced apfloinment of a‘high-powered negotiating team to represent
it at the expanded Paris conference on Vietnam.
An NLF spokesman Said the Viet Cong’s delegation to the negotiations will be headed by the National Liberation Front’s acting
foreign minister, Tran Buu Kiem.
Some sources saw the naming of the strong Viet Cong delegation
as an indication that the long-delaved Paris conference might get un—

'At any cost'

Dormitory Authority

Mr. Ryan explained that though
the new charge may send some
resident students off-campus:
“There are many who are living
off-campus now who will be willing to pay the increased dormitory cost just to have the convenience of living on campus and
the assurance of a definite place
to live.” He observed that “the
resident students who refuse to
pay the extra charge will probably be balanced by the off-campus students who are willing to
fill dormitory vacancies at any

According to Mr. Schillo, the
Dormitory Authority is “a separate public corporation established to create the financing
necessary to complete the residence halls.” Explaining that the
Dormitory Authority sells bonds
to the public to produce their

necessary funds, h,° said that
they must assure the bondholders
that they will get back their principle, as well as interest, on the
bonds.
Referring to the possibility that
residence students may need
more financial assistance to meet
the increased dormitory fee, Joseph R. Stillwell, director of financial aid, confirmed that “we
will definitely have to realize
that the expenses of resident students are considerably higher
than last year.” He maintained;
“This will affect all resident students who receive financial aid,
since this may increase the
amount that they are given.”
Mr. Stillwell added: “We won’t
know exactly how much money is
going to be available for us until
March, and then we will have to
consider the number of applications of resident students as well
as the needs of those students”
in order to determine the amount
of assistance given to each.
James Ryan, coordinator of offcampus housing, commented; “It

�between the lines
by Robert P. Sawicki

If I had been present at the conference
on pig brutality and Lewandowski made
the comments that he did, I probably
would have thrown an egg at him (but
a secret rumor has it that Lewandowski's
brother owns the company that supplied
the eggs). As an afterthought though, perhaps the egg-throwing was not a good

idea. Councilman Liewandowski should
have been allowed to speak, because then
The Spectrum could publish his comments, and everyone could see what sort
of knuckleheads are running the city.
Lewandowski unequivocally stated that
there is no police brutality in Buffalo.
(A law was passed excluding the Urban
Action Center and the Precinct Six Pig
Pen from the city limits.) There is no
harassment either.
Last year, using fraudulent search warrents, Buffalo police and state troopers
raided the Road Vultures’ club house on
South Ogden. In their search for drugs
they knocked the garbage on the floor,
and in gneral made a mess of the' place,
and then they allowed the press in. Then
all the cops and press stood around taking pictures of the mess that these people
lived in. Now the charges have been
dropped.

Panthers arrested in Jersey
JERSEY CITY, N. J. (DPI)
Three members of the Black Panther party were held
in $50,000 bail on charges of submachinegunning a police station last week. A
fourth Black Panther remained at large.
—

No one was injured in the predawn
strafing in which 45 bullets peppered the
brick Fifth Precinct station. Some 30 po-

licemen teamed up in two apartment raids
to arrest the suspects and uncovered a
small cache of explosives and guns. The
suspects were charged with assaulting a
policeman and possession of dangerous
weapons and explosives.
Mayor Thomas

J, Whelan

hailed the

arrests as “the end of the Black Panthers
in Jersey City.” One of the suspects was
Isaiah Rowley, 24, the self-proclaimed de-

fense minister of the statewide Black
Panther organization. Rowley and Charles
“Count” Hicks, 36, were arrested in their
apartment. The third suspect, Victor Per-

ezs, 19, was in Rowley’s apartment when
it was raided.
McGee said his officers found in Rowley’s apartment a slip of paper bearing
the name and address of Ptl. George Russell Jr., who had arrested seven members

car chase two days prior to the strafing of
the police precinct. After the precinct
was riddled with maehinegun bullets, police speculated the incident was in retaliation for the arrests. No one was injured
in the strafing, but several police inside
the precinct had close calls.
Also found in Rowley’s apartment, according to police director George Whelan,

The F.B.I. arrested two men in New
York in connection with the hijacking of
an airliner on Nov. 24. These are very
serious charges. The reasons are obvious,
because this hijacking of planes to Cuba
is a very embarrassing situation for the
government, and really must be stopped.
The airlines don't like the inconvenience
of the extra flying either (they have to
show the passengers the same movie on
the way back). The government and the
airlines are so paranoid about it, when
Marlon Brando boarded a Miami-bound

Obscenity charges against Carolyn Purand Stuart Gordon, who performed in
the nude version of Peter Pan at the University of Wisconsin, were withdrawn. No
witness would sign a complaint, although
1000 persons saw the two performances.
The District Attorney, James Boll, said:
“No one will sign a complaint, and there

It probably would surprise Boll, but the

like these could be even brought up, says
an awful lot about the perverted nature

continued, “such as who should

Commenting further, Mr. Stein

Asked to comment oh the political activities of the GSA, Mr. Edelstein said: “The council has a
responsibility to initiate, be supportive of and encourage political awareness and activity when
the issues directly effect the

“The council should not act as
a house for any political groups
but it has a major responsibility
to form groups and encourage
them to be active. It ought not
be labeled a political group, how-

ever.”

Mr. Edelstein continued: “The
council should take a stand on
the issues directly effecting graduate students and state a policy
regarding the issues. It should also act as a service, which includes
such actions as draft counseling
for graduate students.”

Regarding the political activism
of the GSA, Gary Stein commented: “I agree that political resolutions should be taken, but 1
don’t agree with how they were
taken, the resolutions are signed

don’t feel that they represent all

that are irrelevant unless all the

Among the future plans of the

GSA are various projects to help
raise funds. One of these was discussed by Mr. Sprohge as the

sponsoring of charter flights to
Europe.
“In this way we would be providing a service to the graduate
students and also raising money,"
he said. Also, the GSA will consider ways to push for co-operative housing on the FSA land in
Amherst. This would be a service

to the students because it would

provide cheap housing which is
now very hard to find.

and who then physically took
over the platform to express
their own grievances, brought into sharp focus the central issue
of academic freedom. Their actions demonstrated clearly their
contempt for the integrity of the
class room and the rights of students and faculty to engage in
dialogue on controversial subjects
and to invite speakers of whatever opinion to participate in
that dialogue.

the near future formal universities will cease to exist in Cuba
as their functions will be absorbed by Cuban society. Hitler and
Joseph McCarthy hurriedly burned books for fear of contamination. Mao’s Red Guard have assured China that she need not

Czech intellectuals have found

their freedoms drastically curtailed.
“When Americans seek to destroy their own freedoms, as fragile as they may be, and when

seek to prevent free dialogue
through violence, they abridge
their own freedoms and the freedoms of every member of the
University

community,

not

to

mention the freedoms and human dignity of those guests who
are invited to the university.
“The critical question is whether th£ university community believes in open dialogue which
allows the expression of diametrically opposed views, the right to
free assembly and the freedom
to listen and make up one's own
mind based on the views expressed.
"I believe, as I hope the free
members of this University do,

that, in the words of Chief Justice
Earl Warren: ‘To impose any
straitjacket upon the intellectual
leaders in our colleges and universities would imperil the future
of our nation. Freedom of speech
on the State University campus
mirrors that freedom which the
Constitution grants all citizens.
It should not be an unreachable
ideal, but a demonstrated reality.’

Mr. Jackson was also a target
of the eggs. A majority of tKe
egg-throwers were black persons.
Mr, Jackson had these' comments on the incident:
“I accepted the invitation to
participate in a discussion of
police brutality, I came without
any prepared text to talk about
the facts and what I know to be
the facts about the false allegations of police brutality.”
He said that after the fire
alarm, “a group of Negroes wearing African bush cuts—to me a
symbol of the lowest things we
have in our society,” began throwing eggs.
“Those people who threw eggs
should be expelled. They aren’t
fit to have the right to associate
with human beings. They have
no respect for themselves or for
the University they’re attending

and through which the taxpayers
are subsidizing these professional
hoodlums. I was struck by at
least three eggs and some splashed on my clothes.”

In November in Havana I spoke to the men and women
preparing the first Conference of the Advanced Workers
Movement. This is the latest development in that unique
tendency of the Cuban Revolution that Moscow!calls “heresy”
and which Washington, when it understands it at all, calls
“wild-eyed dreaming."
This heretical dreaming is until it leaves the ownership of
the state to become the property
known in the socialist world of
a consumer.

as Budgetary Financing or
the Consolidated Enterprises
System Che, as director of
the Ministry of Industry, was
one of its leading exponents.
The orthodox socialist establishment prefers the Economic Calculus System
The two systems are structured
this way. The Soviet Union and
later other socialist countries decided on a system of planning
which could be measured by
broad economic results as reflected in financial terms. The
loose relationship that was allowed to exist between the various enterprises gave rise to what
was later known as the self-fin
ancing enterprise
Broadly speaking, self-financing
is based on a network of financial
controls of which the banks are
the nerve center Material incentives are used to gel maximum production, which, if
achieved, gives greater benefits
to the individual worker. Under
this system, loans made to the
socialist enterprise have to be
paid back with interest. This is
meant to accelerate the circula.
tion of products.

Financial centralization
At the very outset, the Revolution is Cuba started to centralize
all the financial activities of the
enterprises. This centralization al
lowed them to solve difficult
problems as they arose. Later
they developed more advanced
methods of centralization which
under certain conditions would
be more efficient for industrial
production. These methods are
based on advanced methods of
accounting already in use in capitalistic enterprises.
Under the Cuban system the
banks supply the enterprises with
an amount of money determined
by the national budget, free of
interest, since credit relations do
not exist in these operations. Under this system a product is seen
as going through a long internal
process of circulation through
various steps in the socialist system. This product does not become a commodity until there is
a change in ownership; that is.

The movement of a product
from one enterprise to another,
whether in the same or separate
departments, is seen as only part
of a process which adds value to
the product, with the bank considered merely as a cash register
to keep track of these movements.
The enterprise does not have its
own capital and consequently its
income is reintegrated into the
national income.
, It is in human terms that the
two systems come into conflict.
Fidel expressed the conflict when
he said: “We are creating wealth
with political awareness, not creating political awareness with
money or wealth.”

Man and technology
Up to a point the two systems
are in agreement. People aspiring to live under communism

must so develop their technology
as to turn man's sweat into the
miracle of producing practically
unlimited quantities of material
goods. The Culians agree with
this. If they did not work to build
the necessary technology, the Cubans admit they would deserved
ly be called dreamers. But at this
point the orthodox socialists say
that communist consciousness re-

sults from the increased flow of
material goods. The Cubans, however, say that communist awareness must be developed at the
same rate as technology. Fidel
insists that “an advance in the
conscientiousness of the people
must accompany every step forward in the development of the
productive forces."

Bennett High split over
Friedenberg cancellation
by Ruth Blakely
Spectrum Steti Reporter

Cancellation of an assembly
program at Bennett High School
featuring Edgar Z. Friendenberg,
Faculty of Educational Studies,
has caused disappointment and
unrest ambng the high school students there.

Twice yearly the National Honor Society at Bennett holds an
assembly to induct new members.
Dr. Friedenberg was invited to
give a short talk and then moderate a panel discussion on issues

relevant to the Main St. school.
The panel was to be composed
of four students representing a
cross-section of the school.
After a faculty-student Assembly Committee okayed the program, a snag developed

that Dr. Friedenberg would not

program. He added that Dr. Friedenberg would be welcome to

speak to an interested group of
students, faculty and parents af-

ter school.

In an interview Mr. Miller explained his position: “I was approached by the Honor Society
faculty advisor, Mrs. Gabrial, who
claimed that not all the students
and faculty were in favor of having Dr, Friedenberg speak at a
general assembly.” Mr. Miller
added that it would be extremely
difficult to control a group of
more than 2700 students during a
panel discussion.
The students at Bennett gave
other reasons for Mr. Miller’s
decision. Steve Nathan opined
that Mr. Miller is “afraid” that
Dr. Friedenberg would present
“impressionable young people”
with ideas contrary to those with
which they were raised. Mr, Nathan is a member of the Assem
bly Committee and intends to

were never submitted to them for
approval.

Mr. Miller has stated that he
did not know that the Assembly
Committee had approved the
plans for the Friedenberg program. Jeffery Graber, Bennett
High senior, attributed this to
lack of communication. Mr. Miller says that he has so many
committees that he cannot keep
track of the actions of each. He
thought that by arranging an alternate program, the situation
had been satisfactorily handled.
Mrs. Gabrial invited another
speaker, Mr. Miller okayed him
and the dissentions began.

The ballot will read:
“This referendum is intended

“Any corporation refusing such
requests will violate the spirit of
the open campus and does not
belong on one."
The referendum calls for a
change only in the last section
of the resolution.
Since the original resolution
was passed, Dow Chemical Corporation has sent recruiters to
campus. Prior to the recruiting
a representative from the company participated in an open forum in the Haas Lounge.
Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory, Inc., also received an invitation to participate in a forum
prior to their scheduled recruitment day. Personnel manager
John C. Kane in a letter to Richard Schwab, Student Association
president, indicated: “We feel
that an exchange of information
would indeed be useful and we
would be glad to participate in
a discussion of careers, employment opportunities and our laboratory’s role as a research or-

to change part three of the polity
resolution of Nov. 20 to read from

‘Any corporation refusing such
requests will violate the spirit of
the open campus, and does not
belong on one,’ to: Whereas an
open campus should follow a policy of free dialogue, required
public interrogation violates the
spirit of a truly open campus and
should not be imposed on visitors
to the campus.”

Also included on the ballot will
be space for students to check
either: “It should be changed.”
or “It should remain the same.”
After several hours of debate,
the original proposal sponsored
by SDS was passed at the Nov.
20 polity meeting. This original
resolution reads:
“Those groups who would recruit on an open campus must be
open groups. Any and all information about a corporation must
be available to the University
community. Recruiters, then, will
be expected to discuss in detail
any classified research their corporation does. This will truly
open the campus.
“Any recognized student group
has the right to invite a recruiting corporation to publicly dis-

ganization.”
Cornell Lab will participate in
a forum when “our legal questions have been resolved.” Court
action is pending relative to the
proposed sale of Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory.

Correction
An article in Tuesday's Spectrum, "Doan far
grads sought," should have included the fact that
students may suggest names for consideration for
the post of graduate school dean. Contact Gilbert
D. Moore, assistant to the president.

Peter Levin, National Honor

Society member and

editor, became the undeclared
leader of the ad hoc committee
to protest Mr. Miller’s actions.
As he said: “No one else seemed
to be doing anything about it.”
The assembly will be held this

nothing can be done
at this late date to prevent it.
One lesson has been learned,
though. Mr. Miller has realized:

It was amidst such fears and

for construction of a new stadium.

At that time it was felt certain

on May 27,

Warren Giles, president of the
league, announced that Montreal
instead of Buffalo would receive
the new franchise.
Bitterly disappointed, some
county officials joined with the
Chamber of Commerce and still
urged construction. The money
can still be forthcoming since a
two-thirds majority on the legislature is needed to rescind the
bond issue. This type of majority
is hard to muster when 60% of
the often balky legislature is Republican and 40% is Democratic.
The major controversy revolves

Many suburban legislators, with

site.

Prominent bankers Seymour H.
Knox and John M. Galvin along
with the Chamber of Commerce
agree on an Amherst location..
Bills owner Wilson would prefer an Amherst Stadium. He warned that he “would have doubts
about signing a long-time lease
for a downtowm stadium.”
Robert Ketter, University vice
president for facilities planning,
indicated in a University report
that the University would make
use of a new stadium. Since the

“I simply think there are
enough minds to go around," according to Charles Zeldner, chairman of the University Publications Board, referring to a proposal to amend the board’s con-

stitution.
The proposed amendment was

rephrased to: “An editor-in-chief,
business manager or treasurer of
one publication may not be an
editor-in-chief, business manager
or treasurer of two or more campus publications concurrently”
from “one person may not serve

Mr. Zeldner approved of the
amendment because he feels
there are enough clever people
on campus to serve as editor-inchief of the campus publications
without resorting to pluralism.
As well, there is a possibility of
a conflict of interest if a person
holds two posts on opposing or
intrinsically different publications. He also indicated the possibility of duties of one publication detracting from the performance rendered on a second
publication..
According to the revised version of the amendment, lesser

The amendment was opposed
by several of the editors present
on the grounds that the publications board doesn’t have the authority to amend the constitutions
or charters of the publications by
restricting who is to be editorin-chief. As well, the smaller publications are less demanding than
the larger, and two smaller ones
could conceivably have one editor-in-chief.

The amendment was tabled un

art? It is diverse yet parallel; it is
alike yet individualistic. Each of
the 37 artists is creative in a stylistic maniThr but yet each is motivated by the same traditions.
It can only be explained in
terms of the culture itself. A cub
ture that has been subjected to
transmissions across the world
but has endured and remained
distinct.

Charles A. Schoeneck, Republican Committee Chairman, said:
“It gives me great pleasure to

announce that the State Univer-

of Buffalo Marching Band
will represent New York State in
the Inaugural Parade, Jan. 20 irt

Previous to the selection, he
said: “The band, which will be
selected, would be the most outstanding band in New York
State.”

The New York Unit consists of
the Governor's car, the marching
band, a float and a drill team.
The parade, lasting two hours,
will proceed down Pennsylvania

where the Presidential reviewing
stanch is located.
One of the bandsmen who effectively campaigned to get the
University Marching Band into
the Inaugural Parade is David L
Evans. He and other members of
the band wrote letters to State
Senators and Representatives, Lt.
Governor Malcolm Wilson and
other government officials.

these politicians to get Gov. Rockefeller to appoint the University's

After urging the government

Governor forwarded the mail to
the Republican Committee.

Meyerson received word

Shown at a recent football half-time performance, the
UB Band will be prominent in the inauguration parade next Jan. 20 in Washington, D.C.

Paul Wietig, president of the
University Band and drum major,
said: “This is the greatest honor
that could have been bestowed on
the band and the University.”
The Marching Band was formed
in 1916 and was part of the Physical Education Department and
ROTC Departments. In 1961, it
became a part of the Music Department under the direction of
Mr. Frank J. Cipolla, who is on
sabbatical leave this year.
The directors of the banii are:
Michael D. Sandgartcn, in his

criteria to be established for the
admission of students—by grade,

The reviewer was repulsed at
first. The idea of passively watching people choose to die seemed
immoral. But it does allow for a
certain dignity of choice—a dignity we are lawfully refused.
Wolf Walker, the Academy’s
director and the narrator, a gazer
of skies and lover of rocks, lives
in a balance of passive objectivity. His black assistant, Gilliat
who makes an occupation of
taunting Walker’s semitism
charges that he is actually encouraging people at the Academy
to choose life. Is he? Is he a spy?
Walker himself does not know.

photographer husband arrive to
make a documentary the director’s control begins to fail. He
is haunted by a question—whether Jewel was unfaithful to him
during their marriage
and in
his search for an answer begins
to remember his chaotic past.

Jewel’s husband Max is the
novel’s catalyst. He is a madman
capable of breaking into long,

monologues and serves to point

�Summerhill School
planned for Buffalo
if you want to study you can,
it just takes self-control not to.”
This was not spoken by a Buffalo student but by one attend
ing the Summerhill School in Cession. England

Summerhill operates on the
theory that the most important
factor in the shaping of a child’s
education is the free development of his emotions.

an amount of flexibility will be
exercised, depending on the individual child. Tuition for, the nonprofit organization will be about
$750. with discounts to families
enrolling more than one child,
and possibly with scholarships going to poor families,
Attempts are being made to include children from varying socio-economic backgrounds, as that
is felt to be a prerequisite for
insuring the student’s acceptance

of real-life situations.

A school run on this concept is
scheduled to open in the Buffalo
area in September. Several sites
are now being considered for the
location of the Independent
School of Buffalo.

Mr. Kruytbosch said that the
major problem encountered so far
has been that of finding a suit-

Charles Kruytbosch,’one of the
programs’s leaders, said that
“there are more than 20 such
Summerhill Schools now in existence in the United' States and

amount of reconstruction and remodeling is required. Another difficulty usually encountered in
such schools is that of parents’
opposition to this liberal concept

Canada.”

200 workers
Mr. Kruytbosch, a 1952 grad

Black Rage
by Carl Word
College Press Service

Black Rage, by Price Cobbs and Charles Grier

At San Francisco State this month, whites are slugged
for “no apparent reason” by black students. At Columbia
last spring blacks openly expressed their rage at the white
institution which gave many of them scholarships.
Why, at a dozen other universities, do black student
groups express their hostility to whites and jeer “liberals”
with particular contempt? And why, all of a sudden, is it
dangerous for whites to be in ghetto areas.
Price Cobbs and William nor the victims have been freed:
Grier, in Black Rage, put it the same attitudes whites held
toward blacks in those times still
squarely before us. Black prevail, and the
same black rerage is clearly the slave reactions to their concentrationbellion that never quite took camp slave environment shackle

MAIN ST.

The book is without equal in
its clarity of style and exposition.
As its authors intended, the tone
is melancholy and grave, for the
situation, at least as far as black
people are concerned, has been
and continues to be one of sadness and mourning. The overriding experience ' of the black
American has been grief and
sorrow. Grier and Cobbs illustrate
their arguments with ease hislories from their own practice,
with keen insight into the psychopathology of paranoia, a magnification of the cultural paranoia
which affects all black people.
But where Grier and Cobbs
leave off is the most important
part. Where do we go from here?
I think the results of the last
election clearly demonstrate
white contempt for black people;
and a straw is in the wind for a
new black man, no longer a
“nice guy” ready to leave his
balls at the desk, ready to smile
and shuffle, ready to accept white
as right. The authors tell us rage
is a healthy reaction to oppression, a 350-year-old crime perpetrated by white people on
blacks, but they leave it there.
Translate it into action. Turn
the rage of close to 30 million
black people, most of them under
30, into confrontations at bowling
alleys and drive-ins and theaters
and on the job. Translate a 350year-old crime into anger.

831-5000 for Action Line

I

Q.: Where can
get birth control information on this campus
right now?
A.: The Student Health Service will provide birth control infoi
mation for any student requesting it. If you make your request known
to the clinic nurse, you will be directed to a staff physician who win
answer your questions. The Student Health Service will not. however
prescribe medication or devices for contraceptive purposes
Q.: Who decided that students' telephone numbers and addresses
were confidential and that such information would not be divulged?
A:. Several years ago the Office of the Dean of Students in
consultation with representative student leaders, established basic
principles regarding confidentiality of student records and respect
for the privacy of the individual student. Determination was made
as to what information may be disclosed within and outside the
academic community.
When routine calls are received requesting a student's address
and/or telephone number, the information is released only after the
student is contacted and his permission is obtained. Or. if the caller
prefers, a message is forwarded to the student informing him of the
inquiry. Exceptions are made, however, in cases in which it is felt
there is a bona fide emergency. The Student Directory, published
by the Student Association, is a comprehensive listing of students
enrolled, but again such a listing contains only those students who
have agreed to be included.
Q.: What are the eligibility requirements for election to Phi
Beta Kappa? I think I am eligible but haven't yet been approached
by anyone. Is there something I should be doing?
A.: Students can be considered for election to Phi Beta Kappa
on the basis of their academic records, as of their sixth semester
or as of their eighth semester. Eligible for consideration are (1)
students who have completed between 80 and 96 semester hours
with a cumulative average of 3.6 or above and (2) students who have
completed 112 or more semester hours with a cumulative average of
3.4 or above. The United Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa stipulate that
individual chapters may not elect more than 10T of a given class
membership.
The identification of students eligible for election to Phi Beta
Kappa is based upon calculating the averages of those on the Deans
List, those recommended for honors programs, and those reported by
their major departments as having a very high index. Inasmuch as
the University does not calculate students' cumulative averages each
semester or establish any listing of rank, the chapter relies upon
the aforementioned sources to determine potential members. W. L.
Barnette, secretary-treasurer of the campus chapter, pointed out
that traditionally one does not apply for membership in Phi Beta
Kappa or similar honorary societies but recognizes that the list
reviewed might not lye complete. He suggested that any student who
thinks that he meets the above mentioned requirements for induction
into the chapter should write to him at 260 Winspear Ave. The
student's record can then be verified for inclusion on the list of
eligible students to be submitted at the next election meeting
Q.: Is it possible to obtain a dollar and coin changer on the
Science and Engineering section of the campus? Occasionally we too
get the urge to quench our appetites and find ourselves without tlw
proper coinage. Not having proximity to the Union to obtain change
as other campus buildings, or machines that give change, we deem
the above request a necessity.
A.: Roger F. Frieday. administrative assistant in the Office of
Business Affairs, agreed you have a justifiable need, but explained
that an automatic coin changer is not the answer. All such machines
have been removed from campus because they were more proficient
at keeping coins than making change. He is, however, keeping in
touch with the coin change manufacturers who are now developing
a new idea which, when perfected, will be purchased for campus use
In the meantime, all automatic machines which could be adapted
to handling quarters and returning change have been converted
Some equipment, however, could not be converted. Perhaps the
students and or staff could organize an informal volunteer coin
change for your section of campus, possibly through your Engineer
ing Council. With this in mind, this column took the liberty of
writing to your chairman, forewarning him of the inquiry.

Q.: Why are there two different costs for the Student Directory,
i.e„ students pay $.25 but faculty and staff are charged $1.00?
A : Students are charged a minimal fee because part of the
expenses of printing the directory are paid out of the student activities fee. Inasmuch as staff and faculty do not pay into the activities

For some reason unbeknownst to me,

I never really got into any
winter sport. 1 enjoy skiing tremendously. The only problem is that
1 am convinced I’ll always be a beginner. Every year, I look forward
I never improve from year to year. Just
to hitting the slopes, but
when I remember everything that 1 forgot the year before, spring
has already sprung (pardon me but it was unavoidable) and there
isn’t any snow on the ground.
Moving on to other sports, I don’t like ice skating because I have
enough problems with roller skates and I figure if I can’t skate on
wheels, there isn’t any way that I’m going to skate on blades. I’m
chicken to go bobsledding; toboganning is OK, but it gets a little
dull after awhile and I don’t get any kicks from building snowmen—so where does that leave me? Would you believe sledding?
I challenge anyone to find 'a winter sport that is as easy to do,
as much fun and as inexpensive as sledding. With that in mind,
my roommate and I have decided to get a sled and go back to our
pre adolescent past, that age of youthful innocence, and go a-sledding
in Buffalo. The only problem is that we don’t know where any good
sledding hills are located. If anyone knows a good place, could they
please drop me a line in care of The Spectrum—I’d appreciate it.
One .of these days, I hope that someone will make a movie along
the lines of "The Endless Summer,” which was the story of two
surfers searching for the perfect wave, that would be entitled “The
Perfect Hill,” the story of two sledders in search of the perfect sled
hill.
What a great moment it would be when those two hardy explorers are standing at the peak of Mt. Everest preparing for the greatest
sled run in the history of the world. Poised at the top, digging in to
get the maximum effort into their running starts, oxygen masks in
place, the/e two sledders are ready for the greatest run in their
lives. They’re off and away they go careening down the side of the
mountain at breath-taking speed. For sled enthusiasts, it’s a dream
come true. It’s so unbelievable that it’s hard to believe.
One of the patent arguments used by the Athletic Department in
justifying a big-time football program is that the profits that would
accrue from the program could be put back into the department to
support those from which little or no profits are derived. The problem at many schools across the country which do have big-time football programs is not what to do with the profits but how to get rid
of the deficit.
A case in point is Holy Cross College, a private Jesuit school
with a long and proud tradition on the gridiron. The school has just
announced that the Rand Corp. is going to make a study of their
entire football program—which now carries a $200,000 deficit—to
plan a future course of action. The study will propose one of three
alternatives: Go big time on the level of Syracuse or Penn State,
dc-emphasize and play schools like Colby and Bowdoin or give up
the sport entirely. It will be very interesting to see how the report
comes out.

In winning the Finger Lakes Hockey League championship last year, the State University of Buffalo hockey team
compiled a 15-0 record for league play, only to bow in the
playoffs to an aroused Oswego State team that managed to
score the deciding tally in overtime.
Tomorrow night Oswego
State returns to Buffalo with
a squad fully capable of sending the Bulls to their second
defeat of the young season.
To put it bluntly, this is a must
game for coach Steve Newman’s
squad; if Buffalo fails to capture
the Finger Lakes Hockey League
championship, the title will almost certainly go to Oswego.
Oswego will meet the Bulls
with two weekend victories over
a tough Boston State team under
their belts. Bull boosters can expect Oswego to feature their fine
skating, passing and shooting
game, as well as their usual tight
and aggressive checking.

Two fine efforts
However, the Bulls are also
coming off two weekend wins,
and figure to make it very rough
on the visitors. Buffalo turned in
two fine efforts in beating Ithaca
College and the Nichols alumni
by scores of 6-2 and 6-3 respectively.
By the time they take to the
ice tomorrow night, they may

9:30 p.m. also at the Amherst
rink.
In beating the Nichols grads,
the Bulls demonstrated the magnificent level of hockey they are
capable of playing. They dominated play in the first period, although Nichols managed to score
at 1:09 of the first period when
Gelvian stole the puck in the Bull
zone and scored.
Billy Defoe tied the score at
foot
2:10 when he shot a 60
bouncer that managed to trickle
through the pads of Ed Saperstein, the Nichols goaltender.
The second period saw the
Bulls turn the contest into a
farce, as they pumped in five
goals within an ll minute span.
Tom Caruso started the ball
rolling for Buffalo by slamming
home a rebound at 1:03 of the
period, only to be followed by
Bob Albano's goal 5 minutes
later, as he beat Saperstein cleanly with a wrist shot into the upper left corner of the Nichols

nip Cornell, 14-13
by Wendell Wilkie
Spectrum Stall Reporter

last Saturday, the State Uni'ersily of Buffalo’s fencing Bulls
toppled Cornell in a 14-13 upset.
Cornell’s gallant efforts were
stymied by a terrific team effort
displayed by a Buffalo Swashbucklers. In the opening round,
the Bulls were just warming up
with no wins in foil; one in epee
by Jim Ellenbogen and three in
sabre by Mike Kaye, Bill Kazer
and Ed Share.
In the second round, however,
the swordsmen, led by Captain
Steve Morris, took two out of
three. Sparked by their first victory by Barry Cantor, the foil
team put another mark in the

Bill Razor, nulled in another

Wilson added that he was “terribly embarrassed" by the Bills’

coach of the swimming team, expects to do rather well with his
solid freshman team, featuring
Bill Scheider in the 200-yard
breast-stroke and the 200-yard individual medley, sprinters George
Thompson and Mike Hughes in

the distance events.
Coach Bedell is by no means a
stranger to the Clark Gym pool,
having served as assistant coach
for 12 years for the Bulls. Bedell
has taken over for veteran Bull
swimming mentor, Bill Sanford,
who has taken a leave of absence

Because of the limited athletics

budget, there is no recruiting pro
gram for swimming, and as a result, Coach Bedell has to make

the best of whatever talent he
can find, often juggling the swimmers and events in order to come
up with the best possible combination.

Although the team has not yet
been victorious in two starts.
Coach Bedell feels that the rigorous three hour work-outs each

team.

We’ll all pay
Where can you share a tiny room for $60 a month? A
plush apartment building? Or the dormitories of the State
University.
We don’t know the living conditions at other State University centers, but we do know that at this University they
,
are anything but plush.
The sudden $170 increase in board costs across the state
is outrageous.
The State says it needs the additional money—a 45%
increase—to finaitce the construction of new dormitories,
from Buffalo to Stonv Brook.

Albany also knows another problem will be solved by
the new board costs: overcrowding. What better way to get
rid of angry students forced into triples than to force them
out of the dorms entirely by raising costs to a level they can’t
afford'.’
Apparently they want to keep the dorms for the rich
kids. Or, in the case of resident campuses like Stony Brook,
keep the University for rich kids Maybe they’ll ..increase
scholarships to make up the difference, but that means that
a measure designed to create fiscal savings becomes merely
another fiscal merry-go-round in the deficit spending game.
Even if it does work, if students are given bigger schol
arships, and the State budget does remain in good shape—what other ill effects will the board increase produce'.’
Students already are charged “premium" (substitute; exThe landlords know they can get away with
charging a few dollars less than the students would have to
pay in dormitories; in areas close to the campus, they can
get away with charging equal rates. Because students are
already being discriminated against in this manner, landlords will most certainly continue this pattern of matching

Rhetorical hanky-panky
Open campus" is open rhetoric
For that reason, it’s a very useful term. It can be beautifully and ambiguously applied with equal strength in a wide
number of unrelated issues, or, more commonly, in opposing
arguments of a single controversy. It is also useful for cover-

ing up any really substantive question.
The present
surrounding the phrase itself
has its origins in a situation where a concept whose definition
is wholly ambiguous has become a hoarv principle embodying

decision of not what the I'niversitv is, but what we want it
to become

If we want to use the concept to describe some universal
maxim of University life, then we’ve got to apply it universally, if we are to apply it at all.
To avoid finding ourselves in the paradox of invoking an
"open campus” concept to preserve a closed University, we
must expect our guests to act as we require ourselves to act.

Rap with ollie
by Oliver D. Townes
Christmas is around the corner. To me it brings
hack memories of a fictitious world of make believe.
I can remember a man called Santa Claus and
Christmas lights of glowing splendor. The first man
in this little make-believe world is a big, fat Jingo
Jolly white man who slides down the chimney and
gives away something free.
What an up to me as a kid. Wow! He thought
so much of me that he worked all year just to make
me those toys. I saw Santa Claus as a white-oriented
innovation to my mind. I will never tell my child
about a Santa Claus who gives away something. If
Christians were so virtuous and pious to their newborn Savior they, wouldn’t make up make-believe
stories to their kids which will not add any splendor
to the true celebratioff (if the child of our God.
It seems to me that Christmas has become a day
which everyone can use for a big celebration of
their own wants. If 1 were Jesus Christ and saw
how my birthday was being celebrated I would
rather for the followers of my birthday to sing
Happy Birthday Jesus.
I’ve heard people say that they had to get their
Christmas whiskey and presents, suits, coat, turkey,
savings and cards. They use all these things as a
means either to make themselves or others happy.
It’s a shame that there are only a few days that
make people feel gracious enough to exchange and
give gifts to loved ones or friends and it’s a shame
that this thought of giving is only used on the
birth or death of a leader who was the son of our
God. It seems to me that almost every day We celebrate is on the birth or death of someone or a
group of people to whom we look up to or to whom
we are taught to look up to: For example, Abe
Lincoln. George Washington. St. Patrick, Jesus
Christ, etc. If Jesus Christ was a savior of his day
why can t Martin I.uthcr King be a black savior in
Ihe day of the modern black man. We blacks should
make up some kind of gift and joyous celebration
of good will and peace on earth on his birtH and
death day.
I'm driving a taxi cab through the black community to raise mony for this oncoming day just
to make a feu people happy. And this job is one
of the most dangerous jobs a man can have this season of the year. There are people who would rob
and steal money from others just to buy gifts for
themselves or their loved ones and now that the
buses have no money the cab driver is in double
danger. 1 wonder if people have to go through so
much hassle and pain in the celebration of this
savior's birthday. Why do they still celebrate it with
so much artificial force which some people carry to
extremes.
1 heard someone say: "Why do they have a
Christmas tree in the Rathskeller when a large
percentage of the students arc non-Christians and
Jews?" 1 wonder if that person knows the most of
the people who don't believe in Christmas are the
ones who make a lot of money on the day.

Reduction of obstacles in the way of real students is the goal.
A single letter grade conceals more than it discloses, concerning the infinite variations and com
binations of superior intellect, hard work, ill health
motivation and originality. Evaluation should be a
way in which one helps a person grow—it should
be in terms of the student’s goals, not the institution’s, Significantly, while our up-tight faculty j
s
still hesitant about S-U-and implocit-threatof-F,
other schols are on to the abolition of the public
recording of failure; only the credits that move the
student on to a degree appear on a transcript
Undergraduate school should get off the business of credentialism: if grad schools or General
Motors know who or what they want, then let THEM
devise tests to screen for the pertinent qualities.
We got our own business to attend to!

Criticizes expense of kiosk
To the editor.
One of the most annoying articles I have read
was in the Dec. 6 issue of The Spectrum. I fail to
see how $500 can be spent on a kiosk while nothing
is done about the lack of ventilation in most of the
buildings, particularly Hochsteter and Diefcndorf
Halls. We who have to spend hours in those buildings would enjoy some air circulating within the
rooms before seeing kiosks erected all over the
campus. It seems to me that comfort should take
priority over aesthetics.

Favors on-campus recruiting
To the editor:
Those corporations that come on campus to re
cruit are offering a great service to the graduating
students as well as benefiting themselves. They
arc under no obligations to come here and the
hostilities that frequently greet them may turn
their attention elsewhere.
Should there be any company recruiting on
campus that students are opposed to, such as Dow
Chemical or General Dynamics, those people opposed to these companies' policies need not talk
with their representatives. No one is being forced
to work for them. If their ideals of peace and
brotherhood are so damn high, let them join the
Peace Corps. They may do some good ihere: their
current policies help nobody but themselves

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

After approving the transition to the four-course program and the new degree requirements for fall 1969, the
Faculty Senate Thursday failed to reach a vote on the new
grading options. Adjournment was endorsed by a small marginjyf faculty, wearied by the extensive 3V2-hour discussion,

Weiner said that it “may tend
unify the opposition.” It also
would “enable us to have more
time to explain what the proposal is and to explain it to students.”
“I was against the amendment
in principle but I think that the
concerns that they expressed, that
the flexibility in the grading proposals would be lost, was a valid
concern and apparently a number
of faculty agreed with them,” explained Alan R. Andreasen, chairman of the Grading Committee.
He further commented: “The
principle of their amendment
that students should have the
maximum amount of flexibility
in choosing their own grading
system is a central part of the
proposal. My only disagreement
is that in a very few courses,
where this might be justified,
faculty members should have a

chance to decide the form of the
courses that they want to teach.”
Indicating that the “next step
is up to the faculties and departments,” Dr. Andreasen hopes that
they maintain the flexibility intended in the grading proposals
and the other resolutions when
they design their programs. He
also hopes that, as the University
acquires experience, more faculty members would use the written evaluation.

'Potentialities of tyranny'

ulty an important amendment
and see it adopted” as “a signiicant milestone in the studentfaculty relations in the University.” Despite his disagreement

with the students’ amendment, he
believes “that the resulting proposal is a good, strong advancement that must be passed.”
Prior to the introduction of the
amendment, William Sylvester,
Faculty of Arts and Letters,
claimed that the grading proposal “continues the basic fault
of the grading system” and “has
in it potentialities of tyranny.”
Speaking without benefit of a
microphone, he shouted: “I think
the whole thing is fake.” He also
feels it offers “hopes that are
going to be profoundly frustrated.”

Postponement motion
Following passage

of

the

amendment, Dr. Sylvester introduced an amendment calling for

the deletion of all designations of
“U” and “F.” This action was
promptly followed by a motion to
adjourn which was approved by
the remaining faculty members.
Earlier there had been a similar motion by Carmelo A. Privit

and Mathematics, to postpone the
vote on the other resolutions because he wanted to be shown
more supporting evidence to justify the reform. Claude E, Welch,
dean of University College, replied that the resolutions had
been drawn up without the accompanying research to facilitate
its reading. He indicated that
there had been “solid research”
and that a postponement would
be inappropriate.
Also replying to the motion to
postpone the vote, Warren G.
Bennis, vice president for Academic Development, said: “I
know of no innovation without
the possibility of loopholes or the
possibility of abuse. Every significant change never has sufficient
data . , . there is never perfect
information.” He indicated that
“any change can work if people
really want it to work.”

The motion was defeated and

the amended proposals. The resolutions were approved as a large

“It would perhaps be desirable to explain the University’s position and policy
with regard to ROTC on the campus.

tween the University and the Air Force
is signed yearly with no student decisionmaking.

“Since World War II and particularly
since Korea this country has realized that
it must have a military force in being of
considerable size. Such a military force
requires a considerable officer personnel.
The officer personnel required can no
longer be supplied by the service academies and the other sources of supply
that were formerly relied on. It became
an item of national policy to turn to the
colleges and universities and to establish
ROTC units in them to provide this officer personnel.

This is because it is the University’s job
to turn out products—technicians—who
will keep the U.S. enconomy running just
as it is. As a faculty member once remarked: "When University presidents stop
turning out the war research and the
ROTC cadets—they're out on their ass.”
Choosing to act in the national interest
is a moral choice involving the taking of
sides. Many students are bitterly opposed
to what the rulers of America call the
“national interest.” That means the corporate interest, and that means the protection of foreign and domestic markets,
labor and resources for their profit. The
war in Vietnam is in the national interest.
So are the wars in Thailand, Guatemala,
Haiti, etc.

"The three branches of the military establishment now rely upon ROTC as their
single largest source of officers. Every
university must consider its role in promoting the general welfare and serving in
the national interest. The University of
Buffalo decided at the time these new
units were being established that it was
appropriate to accept an Air Force ROTC
unit for the University both in terms of
the national interest and in terms of the
interests of the young men enrolled in
the University.”
This position paper was prepared in
December 1959 by a University official
responding to student displeasure at the
then mandatory ROTC program: It is
marked "confidential” and was made public as a result of accidental discovery—and some persuasion.

“We cannot be satisfied with that part
of the agreement which speaks of interference in our internal affairs, as the illegal newspaper Zpravy and that Vltava
radio are now doing,” he said.
“These questions will be discussed in
the near future.”
The reports in Western diplomatic circles said that Dubcek would be joined on

the trip by Gustav Husak, the Slovak party
leader, and Premier Oldrich Cernik.
Another subject certain to be discussed
at any such meeting is an extensive change
in the government that will come Jan. 1
when Czechoslovakia becomes a two-state
federal republic.

The paper goes on to discuss why it is
in the personal interest of all male students to take ROTC and how the decision
to transfer exemption procedures from a
faculty committee to ROTC itself occurred.
Since 1959, the University has written
no subsequent papers, so this paper explains the official University position on
what ROTC is doing on campus.
The paper utterly destroys and makes
laughable the administration lie that this
is an “open” campus, a campus which
should not and does not make ethical
decisions. Here the University explained
that it picked a side, that it chose. This
University wants to help the “national
interest,” and is doing that by training
officers for the U.S. military, officers
that it needs. Moreover, the contract be-

The task for all tnose opposed to the
Vietnam war—liberals and radicals alike
—is to make it impossible for America to
continue her butchery of that country.
Every student faces the draft and must
confront it in some way. Some resist,
some flee to Canada, others wriggle out
with a deferment. For those of us who
choose the last course, we must realize it
for what it is: a cop-out.
For every white middle-class student
who gets a note from a shrink and beats
the draft, that means one more workingclass high school kid gets drafted. By itself, beating the draft doesn’t hurt them
much. Besides attempting to dry up the
manpower pool or to organize in the
Army there are two things that can—must
—be fought for on campus if our S-2 deferments are to be used humanely.

We must end ROTC—for the sole reason
that the military needs the officers. We
must end all defense research—for the
sole reason that the military needs it.
The issue of student power in decisionmaking is not one-twentieth as important
as the right of oppressed people to get

American troops off their soil, off their
necks. The ending of this oppression is in
my interest because I don't want to be
drafted into a muddy death. No one does,
and the way to prevent this is by destroying the war machine.

Under the new system there will be
seven federal ministries to deal with external problems and seven federal committees to oversee problems relating to both
of the two states—Czech and Slovak.
Each of the states in the federal republic will have 17 ministries to deal with
exclusively internal problems.

Although billed as a mere formality in
the transition to federalization, the reorganization could bring a major shift in
political power away from the reform contingent of party leader Alexander Dubcek.

�State issues liquor license
The long-awaited liquor license
for the Faculty Student Association was granted by the State Liquor Authority Wednesday. Students may purchase beer in the
Rathskeller beginning at 2 p.m.
today until closing.
Until second semester, only
beer will be available, and only
in the Rathskeller. Starting Jan.
27, however, alcoholic beverages
will be on sale in the Tiffin Room.
Rules for the sale, consumption
and possession of alcholic beverages in Norton Hall that were
recommended by the House Council were presented to the Alcohol Review Board Monday.

Rules listed
These rules, which will be sub-

ject to review in February, are:

Authority must be observed and

Alcoholic beverages purchased in the Rathskeller, Tiffin

No draught beer
"The beer that will be sold in
the Rathskeller will at first be
sold in cans, not on tap. There
will be 16 different brands to
choose from at first, to find out
which are the top sellers,” Mr,
Henry explained.
Anthony A. Lorenzctti, associate vice president for student
affairs and chairman of the Al-

cohol Review Board, indicated the
importance of adhering to the
rules: “It is important that every
individual act responsibly. If that
does not occur, the whole spirit
of things will be desroyed.
“So far, our experiences in the
dormitories and the Union have
been satisfactory due to the responsibility of the students,” he
said. Consumption of alcohol in
buildings other than the dormitories and Norton Hall is still prohibited except in special cases.
Dr. Loronzetti explained that if
an organization wishes to hold a
function at which alcohol will be
served in an unauthorized building, they may apply to the Alcohol Review Board for permission, “Anyone interested in a
party elsewhere Can get an application in room 201, Harriman

in December, 1967, these by-laws
state: “These by-laws are provisional in nature, and after one
year of experience with them,
must be submitted to a faculty
committee for review, revision
and submission to faculty rc
approval before becoming permanent.”

At the April meeting, the Pol

icy Committee also passed a roso-

Union:

"To recommend to the

By-Laws Committee that they invite four student representatives,
'wo undergraduates and two graduate students, to serve as nonvoting participants on the ByLaws Committee." The Committee

requested the cooperation of the
FSSA departments to select a
group of students to serve as a
source of student representation
on not only their own committee,
hut also "on other committees,
panels, etc,"
Early in the semester students
in each department met to elect
student representatives. These 25
delegates organized the Council.
The recently adopted constitution invited “appeals from any
student on any academic and or
■administrative matters within the

Student representatives
The CSSS will act on requests
from the FSSA for student rep-

resentatives on its various com

indicated, “A sale of alcoholic

Concerning the removal of the

As stated, the law does not

With either type, the danger
from the flu itself is minimal.
Real danger arises when influenza is combined with another
disease because the flu reduces
the resistance of the patient.
Pneumonia and strep infections

have been found in conjunction
with the flu in the infirmary

since

Thanksgiving.

There is very little the doctors
can do to cure the flu, especially
since the specific type isn’t known
yet.
An influenza vaccine does exist,
and it may be effective against
this kind of flu, but it exists in
such a small quantity as to be
meaningless to the average patient. In the case of a real epidemic, this vaccine would be
given to the medical staff, the
security forces and the maintenance personnel, as well as those
who have influenza with complications.
At this

point, there aren’t
enough people in the infirmary
for this to be considered an
“epidemic,” or not an epidemic
serious enough to close the university. In 1957, 400 people were
bedbound at once, but the University remained open.
However, a considerable number of students, a large majority,
have at least been exposed to

the flu, and many students with
the flu have remained in the
dorms instead of “turning themselves in” to the health service
These people are infecting more
people and are making an epidemic more likely.

At its Tuesday meeting, the
council noted the appointment of
Julian Peasant as director of the
Experimental Program in Independent Study (EP1S), and voted
to continue the CSSS investigation of tlPIS and the Black
Studies Program.
The constitution will be presented to the constituent academic units this month and will
be considered ratified when approved by a simple majority of
students voting in two-thirds of
the FSSA departments.
According to Tom Buchanan,
graduate president of CSSS:
"Within the present power structure of the University, students,
both graduate and undergraduate, are precluded from meaningful participation in academic affairs because they lack both the
ability to respond quickly and
coherently, and the necessary factual information upon which to
base decisions.
“Hence, by default, the administration has to make most decisions. We hope to overcome

A general meeting will follow registration from 8:30 until 9 a.m. in the Fillmore

After the general meeting, the convention will break up into several workshops.
Areas to be covered in these workshops include imperialism, socialism, Cuba, high
school and campus organizing and education—internal and external. The room locations of these workshops will be announced.
In addition to the college SDS chapters that have been invited to attend, several
high schools in the area will be attending the convention.
"This conference can be an extremely important step in the development of our
district," according to SDS members Speed Powrie and Joe Giroux. "There is a need

The year 1962 saw the transition of the University from a

As Ihe student population

In 1960, Dean of Women Jeanette Scudder suggested an honors
program for the elimination of
curfews and the creation of
“group responsibility" for dorm
behavior. By the spring of 1961,
girls intending to remain out after closing were issued keys to
the dorm. But, in the fall of 1962,
incoming Seniors protested group
responsibility. Since campus security also frowned upon the issuing of keys, the program was
dropped.

Curfews eliminated
This brings us to 1965, the
year when most existing ways of
life here on campus began to
crumble. As things stood then,
the only restriction which had
been lifted was the dress regulation. Also males were now allowed to visit the women’s dorms
one afternoon each Fall, Winter
and Spring Weekend. A current
junior recalls: "Even then we
had to keep our doors open and
an RA patrolled the hall to make
sure that everyone had both feet

Sociology students plan
discussion with faculty
In an effort to establish a meaningful dialogue between undergraduate and graduate sociology
students and the department’s
faculty, tomorrow has been set
aside for an all-day examination
of matters relevant to the de-

partment.
All sociology instructors have
been urged to cancel their classes
on that day and participate in the
faculty-student discussions.
For many students "this is the
last chance for the students w'ho
want to form some sort of com
munity to do that,” said Richard
Mason, a member of the Sociology Graduate Student Assbcia
tion.

The Association was formed in
December. 1967 in response to a
faculty invitation. Since then, ac-

cording to Mr. Mason, the association "has tried to discuss issues
with the faculty.” When they did,
"the faculty refused to discuss
with them and defined them as
the poorest, least desirable stir
dents in the department.”

lives in all Sociology Department
committees and general meetings
that determine departmental pol-

icies and their implementation."
This part of the referendum was
passed over-w helmingly by the sociology majors 283-28.
The CCSS, said spokesman John
Andreozzi,

feels that “the voice
of the students has been ignored"
and “if they’re really sincere
about wanting student participation they should have acted by
now: they must act now and af-

ter the meeting!”

Meeting tomorrow
Tomorrow’s series of discussions was planned by an ad hoc
committee on departmental reorganization consisting of two graduate and undergraduate students,
two tenured and two untenured
faculty members.
Debby Wagner, a

member of
this committee, said that the purposes of the meetings will be to
"attempt to create a feeling of

everyone belonging to one department” and “to make an attempt at

communication.”
The meetings will be divided
into three parts: a general meeting, small group discussions and
another general meeting.
The first general meeting will
be from 9:45 a m, until noon and
will be held in the Conference
Theater.

After this the discussion will
break up into small groups meeting in rooms 333, 334, 335 and
344, Norton Hall.
Finally there will be a general
gathering in the Fillmore Room
at 3 p.m.

Mr. Mason summed up his
for the outcome of the conference: “What we expect is that
all of the regrettable stuff of the
past will be forgotten and we
will be able in the future to deal
with each other in the future
respectfully and address common issues. We students arc not
interested in past history.”

The Spanish Club will sponsor two lectures by Ricardo Gullon
professor of Spanish at the University of Texas, one at 4:30 p m
today and the other at 12 noon Wednesday in room 231, Norton Hall
"Lazarillo de Tormes," a Spanish movie with English subtitles,

Attitudes and Role in University Policy between the United States
and Canada” Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. in room 344; Norton Hall. Refreshments will be served.

This is the age-old excitement of the hunt, the instant coordination of
mind and muscle against the finely-honed instincts of your game.
Engineering offers a kindred excitement, or should. The stalking of
ideas, the shooting down of tough and wily technical obstacles, the
well-trained engineering mind against the complexities of nature.
Rut too often today, this excitement is lost in routine and fragmented
assignments or a company climate in which engineering is taken for
granted. Which is why, if you’re hunting for professional excitement,

�A view of Cuban Communism

The Revolution is the people
by William Yates
Special to The Spectrum

Editor’s note: Mr. Yates, a graduate student in the Faculty ol
Educational Studies and a teaching fellow in English here, recently
returned from a 2*A-month visit to Cuba. Along with Russel Smith,
a graduate student in history, and 35 students from Students for a
Democratic Society chapters all over the country, he flew to Havana
from Mexico City Aug. 24 at the invitation of the Cuban government.
This is the first article of a three-part series providing a first-hand
account of Cuban life.

HAVANA, Cuba—The most astonishing thing about the
new Cuba is the concreteness, the simple daily life that is its
revolution. Before coming here I was very apprehensive of
being able to gather sufficient material to comprehend that
glittering generality, “Cuban communism.”
After nearly three months and discipline that had been
I find it really quite simple. created in connection with this

Industrial necessities

In the Cienfuegos Industrial
Zone, in the province of Las
Villas, 1620 people, most in their
early twenties or younger, are
constructing a fertilizer plant
from the ground up. Students
and workers, each an outstanding member of a Young Communist group, volunteered from
all across the island. They were
given a short training period and
now, guided by a handful of
technicians, they are proving that
revolutionary consciousness and
willingness to work hard can
build the industrial necessities
of their Revolution.
They proudly call themselves
La B r i g a d a Communista, The
First Communist Construction
and Assembly Brigade. The plant
they are building is a material
metaphor of their own consciousness.

The Brigade, like much else in
the Revolution, had its origin in
an independent action. A Brigadier told me: “At first we were
a group of students in the Eighth
Course at the Revolutionary Instruction School in Havana. We
started a brigade to build a cement plant on the outskirts of
Jaruco, forty minutes from Havana. We didn’t have much technical knowledge. We had to learn
how to do it as we worked. We
borrowed some machines not in
other construction groups into
giving us stuff they could spare.

We built it in six months.”
Fidel Castro spoke on the day
the plant went into production,
January 5, 1968. He picked out
for emphasis those values the
group action had fostered: "And
that is why we examined the importance of forming a construction brigade for an important
industrial project, a brigade endowed with the spirit of work
P*9« Ten

told that the brigade is composed
of 227 members and that they
wished another important task to
be assigned to them that they
could carry out in the same spirit
with which this project was constructed.” The students then
formed the Communist Brigade
and began the larger task.
The Brigade is integrated with
the universities and technical
schools so the workers continue
their studies while working, both
in classrooms at the work site
and through rotation of Brigade
units between school and work.

The real revolutionary

The Brigadiers see the fertilizer plant as only part of the
value of their work. Equally important is what one student expressed this way: "Because the
best way to build a Party is not
in schools with manuals but here
in work.”
He was echoing Fidel’s words:
“And that experience taught us
another thing: Who is really a
revolutionary militant; what
must a revolutionary militant be?
Is he by chance a youth who
memorizes the manuals? And, by
chance, is he who memorizes
manuals good for anything? Can
he call himself a revolutionary?
What do we want that kind of
revolutionary militant for, full
of theories and without any capacity for what is essential withproduction
in the Revolution
the process that is precisely
called on to free men from misery, called on to free man from
the very cause that begot exploitation within human society?”
These students at Cienfuegos
are indicative of the new spirit.
Cubans everywhere are on the
—

—

move. They are transforming

their island and transforming
themselves in the process. They
are guided by Che’s words: “We
shall forge ourselves in the daily
action, creating a new man, with
a new technique.”
Through planning, through
work, through their actual unstinted sweat, they are involving
themselves in what they build,
realizing themselves in their
work because what they build is

their own.

Building Greenbelt
In Havana, once known for corruption, bureaucracy, and unemployment, the citizens work daylong and nightlate building their
Greenbelt, an encircling expanse
of gardens and forests, of orchards, of villages and sports
centers. There is nothing like it
elsewhere in the word and the

see if you don’t find it moving or
hilarious or pointed or inspirational. Inexpensive, relaxing and
not time-consuming—this is very
legitimate collegiate entertainment, gang.

The Cuban Revolution’s new

Pete Seeger
by

James

Brennan

Spectrum Staff Reporter

“If music could only bring peace, I’d only be a musician.” So sang Pete Seeger in concert Saturday night at
Bennett High School.
clear eyes penetrating into the
umbra of the audience.

Pacem in Terris, Mir, Shanti, Salaam, Heiwa—these are
the international one-word
philosophies of Mr. Seeger’s
lyric on life. His life and the
way he’d like to see the lives
of all men at peace.

Exiles were another favorite
topic of this particular Seeger
concert. In “En Canadien Errant” he sang about a French
Canadian student banished from
his homeland in 1837. Trolling the

lonesome tune of Jose Martin,
"truthful man from the land of
the palm trees,” Mr. Seeger was
joined in the round with the audience responding "Guantanamera, quajera, guantanamera,”

Suffering from a cold and irritated throat, Mr. Seeger’s warm
and casual performance was not
in the least bit hindered by his
discomforts.

The physical is transcended in
his performance. Sniffles and
snow seem insignificant in light
of the important themes of his

'Ages of Seeger'
Along with other men’s themes,
he went through a capsulized version of the Ages of Seeger. Dabbling on a few notes of “Cripple
Creek,” he Charlie Browned: “Ev-

bathtub singing.
Then as his voice aged, he
asked: "How do I know my youth
is all spent?” And answering:
"When my get up and go has got
up and went.”
He rounded out the cycle with
a funny ditty on old age. With
this song, he told the story of a
little old lady with two teeth in
her whole head, adding: “Thank
God they were hitters.”
His comments between songs

In “Harry Sims,” he’s side by
side with the 19-year old on the
picket lines, bucking the company
thugs and bravely trying to organize

the miners.

Recalling the death wish of a
young Irish rebel, he sings:
“Shoot me like an Irish soldier,
don’t hang me like a dog, for I
fought for Ireland’s freedom.”
In the torturous death of “Kevin Barry,” he tells of “a martyr
for Irleand and a murder for the
crown.” As Mr. Seeger sings, his

&amp;

so he filled in the spots between
rounds with humorous anecdotes.

Leadbelly's rock
Pete Seeger has worked and
swapped songs with two of the

greats in folk tradition—Leadbelly and Woody Guthrie Strumming the 12-string guitar in an

early Elvis Presley rock style, he
did “Hock Island Line,” a song
Leadbelly discovered with John
Lomax on a tour of Southern prisons.
Picking on his banjo to the
tune of “Old Joe Clark" Seeger
did a number that he and Guthrie
wrote for an amateur contest and
won. It was called “Round and
Round Hitler’s Grave.”
Aiming his verbal barbs at the
Vietrlam war, he cynically sang:

“Blow ’em to hell because burned
kids grow up to be Commies.”
One thing missed at this particular Seeger concert was the
presentation of some of his classic folk songs. He didn’t perform
Turn, Turn, Turn, Kisses Sweeter
Than Wine, Where Have All the
Flowers Gone or If I Had a Ham-

mer.
Though these old favorites
were missed, the quality of the
songs and their comfortable presentation more than made up for

the absence.
One of his closing numbers that
was especially touching was “The
Water Is Wide.” It was a traditional old English ballad, and
in the Seeger styie no better way
is love portrayed.
In my eyes, this thin rosychecked man was a master of his
art. Singing down through the
years, watching wars and struggles with those clear eyes, believeing and asserting his beliefs
through his songs, and just being
friendly to the people he meets
and entertains.
That’s the best way to describe
a Seeger concert—a moment of
peace with a little harmony
thrown in.

Bukka

,

White Guy
Buddy

Bukka White is an inspired blues guitar man and Buddy

Guy’s group are guitar-inspired blues men.

The difference in the two: Bukka White is one of the
rough-and-tumble originators of a musical life-style known
as rural blues, whereas the Buddy Guy’s Blues Band represents a slick, refined, urban blues sound.
When Bukka White plays
his steel Debro guitar, he’s
the bossman. His particular
unique style of playing is
called bottle-neck guitar
playing, which utilizes a metal lipstick tube or broken
bottle-neck to fret the steel
strings.
Tin-like twang
He tunes his all-steel guitar to
an open major chord, fretting to

other chord levels with the steel
tube. Stretching the guitar
strings over the steel frets and
body gives his instrument a tinlike twang similar in nature to
toy-like strains of Tiny Tim’s
ukulele.
Using the metal tube and
sometimes a knitting needle

made of cubit steel, he slides
them up and down the guitar
neck, mellowing out the sharp
cutting tones of the vibrating
steel. He strums, sometimes with
two finger picks and other times
with the full stroke of his hand
whipping full force on the guitar
face. “I do it to get the full beat
and make da chords line up da
same,” says this master guitar
man from Houston, Mississippi.
His old steel guitar is wellworn, but says the 69 year-old
musician, “If I’d play a wooden
one, I’d have played right through
it years ago.

A growler
Along with his powerful steel

guitar work, Bukka White is a
growler. His improvised songs
rumble up from his guts and out
through his raspy throat.

Bukka’s music is his life. The
are just easyflowing jive about what he’s
seen, who he's met and what
he’s felt about them.
songs he sings

You can’t really describe his
style as singing, it’s more talkingat-you blues with a lamenting
bite. In his song, “Poor Boy,” he
tells of his relationship with a
poor white boy, which he describes as “too true to talk about
and too true to play.”

Between numbers, when he’s

not playing guitar, he continues
to jive about his early life and

the troubled times he’s lived.

His language is simple. The
talk of the people, he entertained in the gyp houses and
night clubs all over the South
jn the early thirties. His talk
comes out like gravel washing
down a Mississippi delta
One of the central figures in
Bukka's concert and life is a
woman named Lucille. She was
a “hoodoo woman with hot pepper kisses.’’ Rosa Lee and Maggie Lee are two other fine ladies
of Bukka's songs.

His most notable ramblings
are the Aberdine Blues, the Midnight Blues and the Wild Boogie.
He again excels in his guitar
work and adds a little guitar
slapping to round out the beat.

In contrast to the loose rather
raggedy-assed country blues style

of Bukka White, Norton Hall’s
Fillmore Room Thursday evening, had a double dose of Buddy
Guy’s urban blues.
Urban blues are much more
defined and polished than country blues. Buddy Guy glides
through his pieces, note by note,
precisely picking out each one
and laying it into place.

Similar to James Brown
He stretches the strings on his
electric guitar, delicately pushing
wah-wah fuzfc through his amps.
Backing up his guitar workings
are a big brassy sax and trumpet,
very similar to James Brown’s
big band sound.
Buddy Guy looks very young,
but he’s also an originator of the
urban blues. He started at the
age of 21, listening to people like
Otis Spann and Little Walter in
New Orleans jamming.

One of the hot spots of Buddy
Guy’s performance is when the
audience breaks out and totally
empathizes with what the blues
men are putting down on stage.
He starts it out with a tease.
Playing with the people. Little
bitty soft coos and yeas. Then
he’ll stqp and challenge the people to answer his blues call.
After taunting the audience a
little longer, the Guy’s guys
tighten up their sound, and then
let loose with a barrage.

Sway and jump
Bukka White’s audience were
foot-stompers, who listened to
his back-porch jive. Buddy Guy’s

had to put up with Akron's pressing 2-3 zone defense. Despite the
closeness of the score, the Blue
and White never trailed and on
four different occasions led by
eight points. The victory was the
Bulls’ third in four games.

The State University of Buffalo freshman basketball team
continued on their unbeaten ways
by defeating Brockport State 7862. The Mutomen, handling the
Brockport zone press well, rolled
to their second victory of the
young season.
Ron Gilliam, 5 foot 9 inch
guard from Elmira, led the way
with 23 points and directed the
attack against the pressing zone
defense.

field. The Baby Bulls connected
on 34 of 73 shots, compared to
Brockport’s 24 of 64, good for
only 37%. Brockport beat the
Bulls at the free-throw line, hitting on 14 of 27 attempts, while
Buffalo clicked on 10 of 17. The
rebounds went Buffalo’s way with
54 to Brockpopt’s 41.
Besides Gilliam, good efforts
were received from forward Eric
Rasmussen who made six of 12
field goals, guard Bruce Huckle
with five of seven field goals,
forward Bob Cabbegestalk with
five of 12 field goals, and hustler
Willie Raspberry with three of
seven field goals.
In weekend action, the basketball Bulls were victorious on all
fronts with the varsity outclassing Toronto 81-37 in Clark Gym
and outlasting the University of

their third straight in downing

Eberle led the Bulls in scoring
in both games.

The Slate University of Buffalo hockey team rolled to an
easy 6-2 victory over Ithaca College last Saturday night in a
game played at the Amherst Recreation Center.
Ithaca started the scoring at

Puck carromed from a face-off in

falo Brotherhood Award.
At the presentation of the award, the Athletic Department was
cited for its courage in upholding its principles of total equality in
all athletic competition.

The man largely responsible for this decision was Mr. Peelle.
It was Mr. Peelle’s recommendation not to play if there was to be
any discrimination towards a Buffalo athlete. This recommendation
had an enormous influence on President Clifford Furnas’ final decision that the Bulls would not go to Orlando.
No, the Bulls didn’t compete in the Tangerine Bowl. But the
community couldn’t have been prouder of this University even if the
football team had brought home a victory.
And if you ask me, I think the Athletic Department still covered
themselves with glory.

“The Year was 1958,’’ began Mr. Peelle. “We were selected as
the host team for the Tangerine Bowl game held in Orlando, Florida.
“We had won the Lambert Trophy with an 8-1 record, and as host
team we would have been given the opportunity of selecting an opponent from a list of six or eight recommended teams. We would
have selected Miami of Ohio.”
“Well, we had polled the team and it was unanimous to play when
a letter arrived from Orlando. We were notified by a man named
Morgan that the stadium in which the contest would be played was
owned by the city and that under no conditions was there to be any
intermingling of the races. In
other words no colored athletes—which meant that our star halfback Willie Evans would not be

first 15 points. Both teams traded
baskets until “Easy” Ed Eberle
put one in to make it 23-23; with
ten seconds left in the half Bobby Williams scored to make the
score 25-23 and give the Bulls
the lead, 25-23, which they never
relinquished. Before the buzzer,
John Scherrer sank two free
throws giving the Blue and White
a 27-23 half-time edge.
The home team was never in
any real trouble in the second
half. The Bulls held their biggest
lead with 8:45 left in the game
when the score was 49-34. Brockport “narrowed the score at 4:27
when two free throws made the
score 53-45. Then, 6 foot, 9 inch
junior John Vaughan put in two
hoops within 30 seconds to bring
the score to 57-45, putting the
game out of reach.

versity of Buffalo coped with the problem of racism.

vorable response
“I then informed the selection
committee that if we were going
to be a participant, it had to be
in Orlando or no other stadium.
We then dropped out.”
Peelle didn’t mention it, but
through the Buffalo Bulls’ Boosters, I learned that the State University of Buffalo had received
a special award for the decision
not to participate in the Tangerine Bowl.

matches,
the University’s other returning

scored decisive victories. In addtiion, sophomores Scott Stever,
136 pounds, Roger Sadio, 145
pounds and Steve Jones, 152

pounds all proved themselves formidable competitors, scoring 7-0,
9-1 and 11-2 victories respectively.
Coach Gergley has great expectations for the upcoming grappling season. The fact that he is
fielding an experienced team and
taking into consideration that
1968 has been an Olympic year,
(especially noting the American
Broadcasting Company’s compre-

hensive coverage of minor as well
as major sports in Mexico City)
gives him high hopes for a successful season spectatorwise as
well as win-wise.

Gcrgley feels that the wrestling
fans will see top-flight competition in Clark Gym this year. In-

creasingly in recent years, college
coaches have been striving to prepare themselves more adequately
for international competition. In
consequence of supporting this
aim, Coach Gregley has turned
out a team more skilled in takedowns or on-the-feet wrestling
than in years past He also hopes

New excellence
All this means that the wrestling enthusiast will be seeing
faster and more precise wrestling this year. Also, our matmen
should attain a new excellence
since, contrary to popular opinion, wrestling finds its highest
achievement in the continous
movement from takedown to pin,

not in ground or advantage wrest
ling.

Evidence that the wrestlers
have a good chance of reaching
their goal of a successful season
can be found in last year's individual statistics—including Gergley’s record as a coach. In 11
matches, Watson had nine wins,
also he had 17 takedowns and
three pins. Wettlaufer won six of
II matches and once again had
almost two takedowns per matchwin, scoring 11. He also had three
pins. In the middleweights, Bell
and Lang each had 10 takedowns
leading them to 9-2 and 5-2 records respectively.
Also, Bell had five pins to lead

the team in that category. Finally,

downs, each one of which resulted in a pin. The fine performances turned in by these lettermen give great hope that the
squad will better last season’s 8-3

Judging from these figures, it
looks like an exciting and successful season for the Slate University of Buffalo wrestling in
the upcoming year. However, a

lies in Saturday's 2 pm. match

NEW YORK —The range and
depth of student protest in New
York City increases daily, as violence and bitterness on both sides
mount. Confrontations on every
level from Fordham University,
a major Catholic institution in
the Bronx, to Linden Junior High
School in a ghetto district in
Queens are occurring.
The sit-in of students and faculty members at Fordham was in
response to administrative noncooperation on demands for UniPresident Leo
versity reform.
McLaughlin and other administrators had offered to discuss the
issues but the reformers had rejected any compromise. More
than 200 students arc charging
that Fordham is a racist and autocratic institution and demand in

scene of protest earlier in the
semester when a black administrator was forced out for his radical views, 50 students invaded the

They threw an egg at him and
poured water over his head, then
went upstairs to confront James

New York Times, and forced him
to cancel a speech to the alumni.
The NYU chapter of SDS had

Chancellor
Samuel Gould is “disturbed at the
instability of student athletic fee
decisions" at the State University
of .Buffalo. according to a representative of the University’s Student Athletic Review Board.
Carl Russo, a member of the
Board who attended a recent
meeting with the Chancellor, said
Wednesday' that Mr. Gould
pointed to the results of two
referendums here as obstacles in
determining how much money
would be needed for athletics in
the future. He said Mr. Gould indicated he must have guarantees
from students in order to obtain
guarantees from the State Bureau
of the Budget.
In two referendums this fall,
students voted to establish a mandatory athletic fee and then opted
to fix the amount of the fee at
$5.50, instead of the $12.50 fee
the, athletic department had
hoped for.

Law School will

consider reforms
In keeping with the tone of

academic reform at the State Uni-

versity of Buffalo, the Law School
is considering a number of reforms in its grading system.
William D. Hawkland, provost
of the Faculty of Law and Jurisprudence recently said that various changes are being discussed.
Any changes being considered, he
added, would have to meet the approval of both faculty and students of the Law School.
Dean Hawkland explained the
grading system presently being
used by the school: “We now have
a numerical system ranging from
zero to 100 which is transferred
into letter grades. We are not allowed to give grades below 62,
"Grades between 62 and 65 are
considered failing,” Dean Hawkland continued. “Sixty-five to 70
is a D, 70 to 76 is a C, 76 to 82
is a B, and any grade over 82 is
considered an A.”
There are various rules which
govern evaluation of the students.
A law student may have one “bad
semester.” This is defined as one

in which a student may receive
an average of 62, and not be dropped from the school. However,
after two bad semesters a student
would be dropped.

Discrimination controversy
Students must maintain an av70 in order to avoid having the semester termed bad and
they cannot receive three or more
grades below 70 in any one semester.
Among the reforms being considered is one to abolish the "two
bad semester” system. Also, there
is controversy concerning discriminations in the grading method.
Students feel that it is too difficult to evaluate the difference between receiving one numerical
grade or another, and that a
straight letter grade system might
be more accurate.
Also under consideration is the
possibility of having averages calculated cumulatively instead of
from semester to semester, as
they are calculated under the present system.

Softening the lash

Criticizes columnist
To the editor:

The niggers gets to say how they wants to get whipped. The whip, however, still hangs in the shed.

In reply to brother Oliver D. Townes in his
Dec
6, column. Rap With Ollje, I’d like to tell you
brother, that you are not a mediator and you hold
no rapport between anyone. You are only a
student
on this campus. You happen to be black and you
happen to write a weekly column in The Spectrum
In this article, you express your opinion—which you
are prefectly justified in doing.
Regardless of your experiences in the black
and
white communities you are only one student.
Other
black students had their experiences in both
communities. You are entitled to be motivated or to
react as you will to your experiences, but again
let me remind you that you are only one student
Other students have been motivated in various
ways. Who is one to exalt his own motives and

The Faculty Senate, in a precedent-setting mood, passed
the student-proposed amendment to the grading proposal.
The amendment made a necessary and fundamental change
in the Andreasen proposal, by scratching the provision which
would have made the grading method a function of faculty
prerogative.

Under the new resolution, to be voted on in January,
individual students determine at the beginning of each semester which grading method shaft he used by the professor. A/7EJ2yfAI01&lt;i&gt;M/ &amp;hi6a£ijMe&lt;,
Once again, we urge the Senate to open the January
meeting to all interested students, with full speaking privileges, Grading is of vital interest to students; unrestricted
student views should be a part of the debate.
The resolution, although superficial, does increase choice
and flexibility. It should be passed. It should go into effect
immediately.

Why wait?
While not following the student suggestion that distribution requirements be eliminated altogether, the Faculty Senate Thursday took an important step toward curriculum flexibility by passing the new distribution requirements, requiring of undergraduates only a certain number of hours outside one of the three given “main areas” (Humanities, Social
Science, and Science and Technology). Gone are the University’s required courses, the required languages, etc.
One asks, however: Why wait until September, 1969?
Ihe proposal is quite specific in its provisions for new
University-wide requirements. There is no reason why seniors
should not be able to adjust their spring schedules on
dropand-add day to the new change |with no penalty; or, further
why the new requirements should not apply to the summer
school schedule.
The Willenbrock amendment, which allowed
for temporary exceptions to the new distribution
ruling pending approval of several University-wide committees,
may dull the
effect of the resolution.

The Battle of Chicago will be long remembered
as the moment in history in which the irresistable
force met the immovable object of American
society. Dramatic change has never come easily
to any people. In a totalitarian state, the agonies
of reform are invariably accompanied by a
revolutionary change in national goals. The goals of
America as espoused in the Constitution are still
sound. The executors, however, are badly in need
of replacement.
Rights in Conflict, the study of the Chicago
riots prepared by Daniel Walker, has had
tremendous impact upon the entire controversy. Walker
paints an extremely grim picture of a city wracked
by political corruption and lack of self-discipline
Mayor Daley is framed as the provocateur of
the
days of carnage which ensued during the
August
convention. He is severely criticized for urging his
police to shoot arsonists on sight and maim looters
As this directive trickled down to the
ranks of the
police, it became a mandate for the
indiscriminate
exercise of violence.
Mayor Daley has often stated that

indictment by others in the profession.
The Intelligence Division of the Chicago police
noted for accepting innumerable
bribes was
charged with inflaming the situation by revealing
many contrived plots. These
"plots" ranged from
dumping LSD into the water
supply to burning
down the city with gasoline poured through
the
sewers. If the elite branches of the department
were thoroughly incompetent,

Asks student participation
To the editor:
Not only is the Faculty Senate undertaking
much-needed academic reforms, but also admitting
a limited number of students to their conferences.
Although the final decisions should be the Faculty Senate's, I feel that students should be admited to listen, discuss or disagree—in that order—for the students with the pure and proper intention
of aiding in university improvement would be
the
ones to listen, and listen well, before knowing what
to say.

I also quite agree with the editor that the students should be permitted to vote, but an ideal solution to student participation is the democratic
ideal of ancient Greece: every student who so desires should be given a chance for participation.

To the editor.
At last, after a full semester of. waiting, the
Student Directory is finally here! It’s a nice little
booklet.
I wish it hadn’t been printed sideways. I wish
we didn't have to pay for it
we didn’t for the
last one, I heard that a limited number were
printed for some sort of crazy cost
maybe if
they hadn't listed my phone number twice, along
with the rest of the commuters, they could have
saved a little cash, and could have produced more.
What will they do if they run out of them
have
a second printing?
At least now I know who all the secretaries on
the campus are.
And the cover is pretty.

So you see, brother Townes, your views aren't
the only logical or acceptable views. And by the
same token, your views don’t set you up as any
type of mediator because opinions, motives and
desires among black students at the State University of Buffalo campus need not parallel yours

"Keep it up and you’ll end up in one of those internment camps America doesn’t have!”

The struggle for dignity
by

Jim Panzarella

Spectrum Staff Reporter

Cries of “Viva la Causa” ring no more

through the hot, dusty, vineyards of Delano, California. The fields lie still and

silent now under the stranglehold of a
state injunction. The grape workers’ threeyear struggle for “dignity and equality”
has collapsed.

In late 1965 unrest with the conditions
in the California grape center of Delano
fame to a head when wages slipped from
SI 50 an hour to a new low of $1.40. Sept.
'6, Mexico’s Independence Day, more than
1000 grape workers walked off their jobs
ln the field and the “huelga” was born.
Reports on the exact meaning of
“huelga” were varied. Some workers desalted it as “hope,” and others as “digJhty," but in Casselo’s Spanish-English Dictionary huelga means “strike.”

would be that.”

Their

greatest complaint was impotence

Workers were not allowed representation
or a bargaining voice. The National Labor
Relations Act of 1937, the guts of UnionManagement legislation, had excluded
farm workers from their basic union rights
on the grounds that a farm union had too
much power at harvest time. Complaints
that this called for an amendment limiting
union activities during harvest and not
total exclusion went unanswered.

Chevez’s demands for prompt police en
forcement met with indifference.

Powerless to resist

Under a Mexican eagle banner proclaimed in the name of dignity, hope and
non-violence, the strikers picketed the
vineyards from the back roads in and
around Delano, coaxing large numbers of

Eugene Nelson, a free lance writer, in
his book Huelga reports: “From the beginning, strikers had reported to police innumerable incidents of being beaten, fired
at, hit with cars, sprayed with caustic sulphur from fumigating rigs, and more. The
complaints were for the most part ignored.”
Powerless to resist because of their committment to non-violence, Mr. Nelson
claims that strikers were denied their only
protection, the law. “Police refused to
act,” Mr. Nelson continued, “on the
grounds that there was no proof, despite
scores of witnesses, clergymen included.
Judges and the Kern County District Attorney deliberately swamped complaints
in a sea of paperwork.”
Juan Flores tells of his first encounter
with Delano justice:

“We went back to town and told Cesar

“Halfway between the camp and the

They said we were under arrest for trespassing, and began piling us into a paddy

“They drove us into the middle of the
vineyards and left us to bake in the sun.
It was just a huge oven, man. When they
came back, they offered to release us if
we would sign their affidavits saying we

“They took us to the Borrego Springs
Station, and clapped us all in irons. They
made a point to put me between two sixfooters. Later they drove us 90 miles to
the San Diego County Jail, where they
tried to confuse us and get us to say
things which would discredit la huelga.
“The food in jail was better than that

“In our trial, all of us were found innocent. But still, the town continued to
persecute us. Even the newspapers were
against us, and presented everything from

“But we kept our spirit. Cesar Chavez
had told us ‘If you want something good,
men, you’ve got to be willing to suffer and
fight for it. No one is going to come from

Minimal reforms

Mac Hammond, Faculty of Arts
and Letters, asserted that “if
these proposals arc oefeated it
will be a massive repudiation of
the executive Committee that has
endorsed the proposals unanimously.” He stressed that the reforms are “absolutely minimal”
and that the proposals were actually neither original or innovative in the overall educational system, since other universities have
already initiated most of them.
Bruce Jackson, Faculty of Arts
and Letters, referred to his own
experience as a teacher at Harvard where the four-course load
is the norm. He confirmed that
“it is enormously beneficial—it
unfreezes a lot of things.” Mr.
Jackson added that with a fourcourse load “kids who are smart
can grow” and that a university
cannot be concerned about the
few students that may take advantage of it.

Critical resolution

Newton Garver, Faculty of Social Science and Administration
noted that “the first resolution is
really the critical one, and it may
raise serious questions particularly from the nursing, physics,
chemistry and engineering departments,” However he maintained
that "the four-course load will

appreciated the wisdom in chang-

we want education with emphasis
on depth or breadth.”
Dr. Baumer expressed a preference for the former type remarking that it is “better than a
mere smattering of all subjects
because we must realize that we
aren’t going to teach every undergraduate everything.” However,
Dr. Sanders hoped “that there
will still be some two and three

the most important steps the Faculty Senate can take right now,”
George Hochfield, Faculty of Arts
and Letters, expressed Support of
the “whole package of proposals.”
He claimed that “rejection would
mean dooming the University to
mediocrity and I’m just hoping
that the progressive elements of
the faculty will get out there and

tensive work in classes.” He
indicated that the implementation
cf the resolutions will be "relatively simple for the humanities
and social sciences” and claimed
"I have no doubt that it can be
done at this university.”
Warren G, Bennis, vice president for Academic Development,
acknowledged that the logic behind the proposals is sound, but
recognized that “the implementation of them may be difficult in
some cases such as Engineering
and the Applied Sciences.” Thom
as E, Connolly, Faculty of Arts
and Letters explained that this
is due to the fact that “professional schools face not only New York
State requirements but also professional society’s requirements
for accrediting the schools,"
With the assertion that "students are substantially overworked by the five courses now
forced upon them,” Alan R. Andreasen, Faculty of Social Science
and Administration, insisted that
the four-course system would enable students to “get more out of
each course.” Dr. Sanders
claimed that the lessening of the
course load is excellent particularly for the upper levels, providing the instructors do not overload each course.

Convention and his earlier suggestion to

The position paper concerning Chicago

On his lawyer’s advice, Hayden balked
at answering a question about a remark
attributed to him during the Chicago de-

monstrations.

Thomas E. Hayden, a director of the demonstrations in Chicago, told the House
Committee on Un-American Activities it
was “brainless” to try to link the Chicago
disorders with his published views calling
for ghetto violence.
Frank Conley, the committee counsel,
read a passage from a book by Hayden,
Rebellion in Newark, which said blacks
wanting to change conditions in their
ghettos could “carry the torch to white
neighborhoods and downtown stores and
if necessary can shoot to kill.”

apology; the United States refuses to give
one. Eighty-two lives rotting away in jail
because it is our government’s policy to
be too unflexible to apologize. The apology is in order, and the people should let
this be known. Instead, ludicrous (almost
childish) suggestions such as the one
which appeared recently in The Buffalo

no explicit threat to seize the ship in international waters, we can see no reason
why the risk of such a reprisal should not
be used as just the diplomatic stick

Fr iday, December 6, 1968

Senator Richard Russell (D. Ga.), speaking of the consequences of a nuclear holocaust in favor of the A.B.M. system: "If
we have to start over again with another
Adam and Eve* then I want them to be
Americans and not Russians, and I want
them on this continent and not in Europe.’’
I. F. Stone on Senator Russell: “But what
if the unimaginable, the ultimate horror

occurred and the American ‘Adam’ turned
out to be a Negro?”
From time to time, people actually read

my column, and some even find the time
to write irate letters of disagreement.

This is noble, (the letters, not necessarily
tfie ideis). Where I am explicitly mentioned, I would like this chance to answer,
To Jonathan Ciner: I am not sure whether you meant to imply it or not, but I
receive no money for my writing (who the
hell would pay?). As for student fees in
general, they fall into the same category
as athletic fees. In this case I feel that
the money is generally well spent (except
for an occasional slip up, like paying for
buses to political rallies). The various
open clubs are subsidized with this money,
and it is up to the student to take advantage of this very admirable situation.
The Union Board—which sponsored the
pop festival and Pete Seeger tomorrow—is doing a tremendous -job. The Conference Theater never had so many fine films
at such a decent price as they have this
semester. The list is much longer.
To Susan Lippke and others: It is true
that I can not prove God’s non-existence,
but if God did exist, and he was the omnipotent, all-loving fellow he is made up
to be, what is his excuse for this world?
He has created limited creatures called
humans who kill and maim each other,
grow old and senile, are diseased, are
crippled, and even become callous and
apathetic to all this suffering running
rampant about them.
Millions of people who can not grasp
the reality of their situation, use God as
a relevant factor “to get by.” They sustain
worthless institutions such as organized
religions, which are nothing less than
grotesque parasites living on the real
fears of mankind. To create and let such
a conglomeration of war, sickness, death,
etc., run its course, makes God a sadistic
idiot.

Regarding the proposal to elim-

Mr. Carver endorsed it saying,
"It's impossible to state specific
requirements that are valid for
everyone in a university of our
size.”

Stability needed
However Dr. Andreasen said,
“I suspect that a freshman movement from a highly structured
high school system to a campus
where there aren't any ground
rules may become confused.” But
he hopes that the individual colleges on the new campus will be
able to provide more stability for
all the undergraduates. Dr. Andreasen also commented that “the
curricula reforms are going to put
a substantial burden on the advisement service of the university
due to the great flexibility of all
the programs.”

Referring to the third resolu-

tion, Mr. Jackson enthusiastically

supported the grading reforms
stressing that “anything which
provides options for students and
professors and doesn’t trap anybody is healthy.” In reference to
courses unrelated to a student's
particular major, Mr. Jackson endorsed the Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory system of grading. He

tion, Mr. Jackson remarked that
“it is an insurance that no departments are copping out on the
resolutions.” Contending that the
resolution is “very sensible,” Mr.
Carver said “nobody can possibly
object to this one.”

Impact on MFC
According to Dr. "Sanders the
resolution will probably stimulate

leasl£

the departments to weed out some
of their courses and that this
would be beneficial for the entire
university system,
Claude E.
Welch, dean of University College, expressed his desire that the
reform open a renewal period for
quality in undergraduate education. He also remarked that the
reforms will probably exert an
impact on Millard Fillmore College since the changes which individual departments make will
undoubtedly affect night school
students too. Dr. H o c h fi e I d
claimed that the proposals will
“provide a definite cuuueiige ui
the individual departments as
well as to the students."

Grading amendment
Dr. Sanders predicted that an
amendment would be added to
the resolution to reward the section that states if a teacher does
not specify his grading system the
students will determine their own.
He explained that several instructors had commented that this
could present problems in the
large lecture classes if students
choose a written evaluation form
of grading; yet, he noted that
most students would probably
sense that the professor could
not possibly give a fair and thorough evaluation when there are
large numbers of students in one
class.

Dr. Sanders said that “eventually I hope a student will literally
be able to write his own ticket
and set up his own degree program so that there will be less
rubber stamping and more indi-

Indicating that he preferred the
letter grading system for his own
classes, Dr. Baumer added that
"if students feel more comfort

that's fine," but he did not feel
that S/U was a needed alternative in the courses he teaches.

is a strong nucleus in the administration
that
is
student-concerned," Dr. Sanders insisted that
the resolutions represented "a
sincere attempt on the part of the
university to liberate its pro-

Emphasizing the fact that
“these changes represent one of
the first steps toward studentfaculty interaction and cooperation, Dr. Andreasen said “I hope
it continues and grows as we develop.”

He stressed that “simply passing the resolutions will not insure
that they will necessarily be implemented as we want. They may
make, however, more possibilities
for changes available if the stu-

professors and faculties
take advantage of them and work
together to develop them.”

Q.: Why is there such a long wait for service in the
Student
Counseling Center? I saw someone there briefly about a month
ago
and was told they would get in touch with me as soon as they
could
assign me a permanent counselor.
A.: Inasmuch as this question generated a great deal of feeling
during part of the NS A Time Out day, we are publishing the complete
response given by Dr. Nathan Altucher, director of the Student Coun
seling Center. It has import, too, for all student services on campus
“The answer to the question of why there is a waiting list for
services at the Student Counseling Center seems, on the surface, quite
simple. The easiest and most direct response is that this situation
exists because more students want or need help than can be provided

by the number of counselors available.
“As the Counseling Center staff has increased in sue through
the years, the number of students requesting service has also increased. This has meant that the Student Counseling Center, like most
counseling centers throughout the country, has had a waiting list
every year of its existence. This year the situation has been complicated because of a decrease in the size of the staff as a result of temporary budgetary cutbacks. We were only permitted to replace two

of the three counselors who left.
“All students who apply for service are seen at least once for an
intake interview, within a week of their initial application. There is
no waiting list for intake interviews. If, during the intake interview,
the student feels that he wishes to avail himself of the Center’s help
and the intake counselor feels that the problem presented is one with
which the Center can be of service, the student is assigned to a counselor. Each counselor has his own individual wading list and students are contacted to schedule appointments whenever he has openings, Students are seen on a first-come first-serve basis, except when
emergency situations arise, when lime is made immediately available.
If a student is waiting to be contacted after an intake appointment
and an emergency arises, he can get in touch with the intake worker
he saw initially or the counselor to whom he has been assigned. He
would find out who his counselor is by contacting the Center and
asking the receptionist. If a student requires long range emergency
treatment and this cannot be provided at the time—that is, if he appears to be unable to function or feels so distressed that he must
have an immediate continuing relationship with someone—the counselor tries to refer him to someone who might be able to work with
him immediately. This, however, is usually difficult to come by, since
all clinics and most private practitioners in the Buffalo area also tend
to have waiting lists, many longer than the Center’s.
“Other factors contribute to the size of the waiting list besides
the shortage of counselors. One is that once a counselor begins to
work with a student he commits himself to continuing to work with
that student until the problem is resolved or there is a mutual agreement to end the relationship. This is in contrast to the practices of
some university counseling centers, which limit the number of stu
dent contacts to some arbitrary figure, such as ten interviews or one
semester. The Center’s commitment is to be helpful as it can to those
students with whom a counseling relationship is begun, which inevitably means that others must, unfortunately, wait. Various attempts
have been made to shorten the waiting list. During holiday periods,
such as Christmas and Easter, local students have been offered limited contacts around specific issues. Toward the end of the spring
semester last year, special groups were used to try to help students
express some of their feelings about their situation and to plan for
the future. These approaches have proven to be of some benefit, but
only partially.
“Still another consideration is that the Center sees itself as having important functions in addition to offering direct counseling services to students. Consultation wtih faculty and staff in order to try
to help them learn more effective ways of helping students is one
example of this. Another is the Counselor-at-Large program which is
designed to provide help to students in more informal ways. These
activities have been favorably received and we plan to continue them,
but they also contribute to the length of the waiting list.
“Most students can appreciate and accept the reasons for the
existence of the waiting list. Many find that our intake interviews
provide a beginning relationship with someone to whom they can
turn if a crisis arises. Other students feel equally distressed at having
to wait since, no matter what anyone says, the problems they experience are what matter most to them and what they wart is relief
from uncertainty, discomfort and confusion. They may passively accept the idea of the waiting list, but actually feel resentful about it
and not be able to express that resentment when they are talking to
the intake counselor. Their only recourse is to carry their resentment
around with them, blaming the Counseling Center for its indifference,
or to convert it into hostile apathy and not respond when they are
contacted and offered an appointment. Both reactions are not in the
service of helping themselves. One way out of this is for the student
to express his feelings about the waiting list when he is talking with
the intake counselor. This is not to say that such an expression will
necessarily lead to change, since the waiting list is not a device or
gimmick but a reality, but it can at least bring out into the open the
feelings the student has and, in addition to clearing the air, may lead
to the mutual planning of alternative ways in which the student may
receive help.
"Sometimes students say that the waiting list k;eeps them from
coming to the Center for help. While this may be true for some students, we more often find this to be an expression of uncertainty
about seeking help. The Center’s waiting list provides a reason fui
not looking within oneself to try to resolve the indecisiveness.
“In summary, the Student Counseling Center has a waiting list
Some of the reasons for this include an insufficient number of counselors on the staff, the commitment counselors make to working with
students as long as it appears necessary or helpful and the involvement of the Center in other activities in addition to direct sendee.
“What the fact of the waiting list means to any particular student
is up to him. Many students come for help and they may have to wait
until they can begin to work with a counselor, but they come in when
contacted, continue to work on resolving their problems and, by and
large, turn out to be helped by the experience. The waiting list ma&gt;
be an obstacle to receiving help but it is not and need not be an obstacle which can not be overcome

‘Black
A new series of “conversations’'
between Warren G. Bennis, vice
president for academic development, and guests from other Universities was inaugurated Wednesday. Dr. Bennis discussed the
novel Black Rage with its authors.
Dr. William H. Grier and Dr,
Price M. Cobb.
According to Dr. Bennis, “the
purpose of these conversations is
to deepen and broaden our consciousness of major issues and
problems facing the students, faculty and administrators in higher education.”
Following are some of the high
lights of that discussion.

.

Dr. Bennis: Your book, Black
Rage, is important for several
reasons. Not only is it a bestseller, reaching many people, but
it is a classic, in that you were
able to write about history as it
was being made, about an oppressed group trying to gain
equality. One of the more important facets of the book was the
concept of black pathology, and

9

analyzed
Rage

that this pathology had its roots
in slavery.

Blacks can't fojget
Dr, Grier; In order to understand what will happen to the
blacks and the United States, one
must be aware of history, of what
has happened. You can see these
attitudes are the result of 300
years of oppression. It’s important to remember, when talking
about black pathology, that the
past slavery has been ignored by
whites, but blacks can’t forget.
Dr. Cobb: The mental, or psychological, set of white superiority has never been undone, simply
because the whites are still
white, and the blacks are black.
Dr, Bennis: What harm has this
white superiority done to the
white?
Dr. Grier: Much harm, because
the white performs as if he hasn’t
committed a crime. Since he has,
namely this supremacy and superiority, he is morally inferior
to those who have admitted white
superiority and have tried to

change things.

Journalism for credit
Students interested in taking "Aspects of Journalism 212," the second semester of the bulletin
board course in journalism, will meet at 4 p.m. today in room 29N, Harriman Library. The first-semester course is not a prerequisite for the second
semester, which centers around editorial and column writing.

If enough students show interest, the 211 portion of the course, dealing with the fundamentals
of journalism, will be repeated. Interested students
should go to room 29N, Harriman Library, today
at 4:30 p.m.

Dr. Bennis: What harm has this
done to black family life?
Dr. Cobb: White control of the
society has made the family especially vulnerable. There is very
little security from society, because white society has more
power over what happens within
the family than do the parents,
the leaders of the family.
Dr. Bennis; What is the black
image of maturity, of power?
Dr. Grier: The black is aware
that society must be changed because the present, white dominated one is uninhabitable for a
black. It’s a question of how one
relates to the necessary change . .

Heroes are needed
Dr. Cobb: It is necessary to find
heroes, to hunt them out, because
of the white oriented educational
system. Malcolm X was the greatest—he was the strongest.
Dr. Bennis: In Amherst, at the
new campus, we hope to have 30
separate colleges. Do you think
one of them ought to be black;
that is, with membership restricted to blacks?
Dr. Cobb: It should be up to
the students.
Dr. Grier: It should be equal
to the white colleges, staffed with
top rate scholars. To tolerate mediocrity would negate any good.
Dr. Cobb: It would have to have
black people at all levels; there
are many qualified professors
and administrators: this could be
possible. There is a serious lack
of black participation, and blacks
aren’t taken seriously. If the
State University, dedicated to
equal opportunity, is serious, it
must be changed. There is no way
the State University may be considered liberal as long as it is designed to serve the white middle
class.

South Central Farmers’ Committee of De-

terest in the huelga. Despite

great financial pressures applied by the growers.
Bishop Hugh Donahue of Stockton, speaking for the Catholic Bishops of California,
publicly proclaimed in March, 1966:
“Any group in society has the right to
form an association to foster its own
wellbeing. Such organizations must be
protected by law, and this need has been
met in other fields of labor by the National Labor Relations Act.
“The NLRA has been produced by responsible men through legal democratic
process, and it can and should be improved by this same process.
“The church cannot be neutral in any
struggle for justice. We actively support
the union insofar as it is an establishment
of a social order in conformity with the
dignity of man.”
In a major Step, the Schenley Company
agreed to honor the NFWA in May. 1966.
Five weeks later came a milestone from
Cutty-Sark—the first union farm contract
in California. The remainder of the major
California wine and liquor bottlers acted

similarly.

UFWOC formed
The NFWA and UWOC had merged with
the AFL-C10 to form UFWOC—the United
Farm Workers Organizing Committee—with Cesar Chevez as its leader. Now Wal
ter Reuther pledged $5000 a month to the
cause for as long as funds were needed.
La huelga became "la causa.” Robert Kennedy hailed Cesar Chevez as “one of the
heroic figures, of our time,” and congrat
ulated those who were “locked with Cesar
in the struggle for justice for the farm
worker and the struggle for justice for
Spansh-speaking Americans.”
The strike- was gaining in size and
srtength. Grape crops rotted in the fields.
More than 5000 workers were estimated to
be on strike in the Delano area alone
Slowly, wages began to rise, from $1,30 to
$1.40 to $1,50 and $1.60.
From San Francisco came word that
the longshoremen were refusing to load

grapes from growers not having union
contracts. More grapes rotted on the docks.
The strike’s cost to growers in 1966 ran
into the millions; yet, the majority of
them adamantly refused to negotiate.

The other side
Martin J. Zaninovitch. chairman of the

lano, presented the growers’ side of the issue. He claimed that in the grape industry,
profits are so minute and competition so
fierce that even a small improvement in
wages or conditions could spell financial

Collapse.

“This is the root of our concern in opposing a wage hike,” he said. “We do, in

addition, oppose the union concept,
not per se. We are opposed to the
equal and overwhelming power which
in the hands of a union to completely

but
un-

lies
and

utterly destroy a grower by a strike at

harvest time.
“Our 5000 employees have demonstrated
that they are not interested in joining the
UFWOC by the very fact that they have
stayed on the job,”
Early in 1968, responding to political
pressure from the growers, the California
State Legislature issued an official restraining order, nullifying the Bracero
Act indefinitely The growers rushed in
hordes of immigrant workers from Mexicali and within days the huelga had collapsed. The strikers, their effectiveness
gone and their spirits crushed, returned
to work.

To the people
Juan Flores describes his purpose here
in Buffalo: “After the injunction (restraining order). Cesar Chevez called a meeting and after much consideration, we determined that we would take our fight to
the people. We have gone to cities all over
the country to ask the people to help us
and boycott California table grapes. It is
our last chance and I have faith that we
will succeed.”
As yet. only one supermarket in the
entire Buffalo area has agreed to the boycott. “Consumer sales are down 20% and

would be down much more, but there is
only Marie and I, and we arc so few,”
Juan commented.
Listing his union's demands, he said:
“We want better wages, rest rooms in the
fields, clean drinking water. We want full
social security benefits, unemployment
and disability insurance. And we want our
dignity. We want the right to be represented. to be treated like human beings,
and to have something to say about our
lives. We want to be able to hold our
heads up high and say, ‘We are farm

workers.^

Grape debate tonight
A debate between Jack Pandol, a representative of the California
Grape growers and Juan and Maria Flores, union leprescntatives in
Buffalo to promote the grape boycott, will take place tonight at
Temple Beth Am, 4660 Sheridan Drive.
The debate, sponsored by the temple's youth group, will begin
at 7:45 p.m.

"We are not asking the growers for
the moon and the sky. All we want is to
come in and take a vote among the workers, to let them decide for themselves
whether they want a union or not. The
growers’ claims that the workers are satisfied are lies. If they are satisfied, why
won’t they let us take a vote?”
“What is a movement?” asked Bill Esher, editor of “El Malcriado,” the “Voice
of the Farm Worker,” His answer: “It is
when there are enough people with one
idea so that their actions are together
like a huge wave of water which nothing
can stop.”

represents

An oppressed minority

“Even some of the employers are seeing
this point. Workers whom they previously
had treated as dumb members of a forgotten minority suddenly are blooming as
capable, intelligent persons using initiative
and showing leadership.”

Dr. Eric J. Bateman, a Southern California sociologist, comments on the grape
issue as a movement: “The grape strike in
California is not an ordinary strike. It’s
not money, so much, that the grape workers are after. They've already achieved a
wage level paralleling that in the rest of
the country. It’s dignity they seek. I see
in this issue the civil rights movement of
an oppressed minority; the grape strike
itself is merely a vehicle. Mexican-Americans are rebelling against a long, sordid
history of indignities heaped upon them
as second-class citizens. The union to them

a new found self-esteem, an

esteem rightfully theirs and long overdue.”
Stressing that

improvement in farm

wages was only part of the problem Cesar

Chevez said: “The greater achievement of
the union is in its helping to restore the
human dignity of the farm worker.”
“One of the most beautiful and satisfying results of our work in establishing a
union in the fields,” he said, “is in witnessing the workers bloom—the natural
dignity coming out of a man when his dig
nity is recognized.

Friday marked the end of a week-long
Thanksgiving fast in honor of Juan and

Marie Flores’ fellow workers in California

“I’ve never had turkey,” says Juan, “but
how can I feast while the people who sent
me here go hungry. I will not eat well
until they eat well, and I will not be happy

until all the farm workers throughout the
U.S. get their fair share.”

The suspension of Murray by
Glenn S. Dumke, chancellor of the
California state college system,
did give student radicals an additional issue around which to
build support. Murray, who is by
all accounts a good teacher, wns
admittedly being fired for his political statements about black liberation. This angered many liberal students. And faculty members
who might not otherwise have
been sympathetic to the student
strike were angry because they
felt Dumke has ignored their
traditional prerogatives.
But the first strike calls were
issued before Murray was suspended, and the basic aims are
to get the college to deal more directly with the social needs Smith
was talking about—specifically
through a Black Studies department and admission of more minority group students.

The strike is also based on student dissatisfactions not directly

related to the racial controversy.
One of these is a proposal by
Chancellor Dumke to give his office control over all student
funds and programs. He has justified this in the name of “efficiency,” but the students point
out it would allow him to kill
any student program he didn’t

Reagan has dismissed the San
Francisco State crisis as the work
of a few “professional agitators."
He said some of the students’ demands are “utterly ridiculous,"
and has refused to acknowledge
that there may be deeper problems or real grievances behind
the strike.
Similarly, the trustees have
been almost entirely unwilling to
discuss the issues behind the
strike. When they held a meeting
Nov. 18 they did discuss black
studies, but at the end of the
morning session Reagan said:

cussion at campus-wide convoca
tions.
The first convocation broke, up
in campus violence because of the

trustees’ order that classes be
kept open. The faculty had voted
to call off classes, and the student strike leaders agreed to participate in the convocation on
that condition. When they found
out Smith had ordered classes to
continue, they first objected, then
stalked out trying to shut down
the school again. More violence
resulted, that could have been
avoided if Smith had had the option of calling off classes—an option denied by Reagan and the

trustees.

Smith finally did cancel classes
a second convocation. He
didn’t want to keep the campus
open under police surveillance
and still hoped to resolve the issues. His decision was immediately attacked by Reagan and
Theodore Meriam, chairman of
the trustees, as a ‘filibuster,’ and
he was forced to resign.
Moderate tactics such as talking over the issues in convocations haven’t gotten black students anywhere, and moderates
in the BSU have lost their influence as a result.

SAN FRANCISCO (UPI)
San
Francisco State College experienced nervous truce Wednesday
as 600 police roamed the campus.
More than 2500 students were
dispersed without incident on two
separate occasions Wednesday, in
new demonstrations opposing the
stiff regulations imposed by Acting President S. I. Hayakawa. After bloody confrontations the day
before, Pres. Hayakawa renewed
his vow to “break up this reign
of terror by anarchists.” He also
refused to cancel classes for a
convocation to settle strike issues.
In the worst violence of the
school’s history Tuesday, scores
of students were injured in clashes with club-wielding San Francisco police. More than 45 demonstrators have been arrested.

Classes open
Classes remained open Wednesday, although attendance reports

for the 18,000 - student campus
were incomplete. For the first
time since the Black Students
Union went on strike Nov. 6,

there were no pickets, but the
Strike Support Committee handed
out leaflets.
“If there are students in classes

Hayakawa and his pigs, it is a certainty that black and third world
students and thousands of their
white student supporters will
move in one form or another to
stop the strike-breaking by their

The vote was three to two last

Opposition to disaffiliation among the Regents had centered
around the issue of “making SDS

The faculty has rallied to support of SDS. A faculty-student coordinating committee was imme-

The American Civil Liberties
Union will represent SDS in a
federal district court to get a
temporary restraining order
against the Regents’ command,
based on the right of freedom
of speech and the arbitrariness of
the decision.

Meanwhile, at rallies, SDS met
the Regents’ charge: They denied
being destructive, citing “positive” projects. An editorial in the
school paper, the Colorado Daily,
noted the wave of support by
observing that “Joe Coors is the
best thing to ever happen to the
New Left at this University.”

a “full board” of Regents, who
may reconsider. Two men were

Mr. Smiley has been heavily
criticized for not being severe

which touched off the investigation of SDS, which became a hot

It is therefore most unfortunate that this particular performance was unusually grotesque
and unpleasant. The fault for a

somewhat disappointing evening
was probably due to a serious
misunderstanding on the part of
Yves Case, who staged the play.

It must be mentioned that the
conditions at Rockwell Auditorium are not the most favorable

One has the impression that the

that his student audiences could

The most spectacular
bargain of all imported cars.

of experienced
sophistication
French theater audiences, chose
to bring out an exaggerated farcical element not present in “Le
Tartuffe.”
Even though there was

somewho was

one in the audience

reading the play with the aid
of a flashlight and was translating (proudly!), as much as possible to a friend next to him; even
if there were students who giggled because an incomprehensible dialogue was marked occasionally by a recognizable word
(“amour,” “monsieur,” etc.), all
of this was still no excuse for
not offering an interpretation of
the highest quality.

Sloppy seduction
Indicative of such a misunderstanding on the part of the director was the way in which he interpreted the highlight of the
play, namely the famous seduction scene. Having already decided to “amuse” his audience
and make them laugh as much
as possible, the director ignored
completely the very subtlety that
makes this scene a very powerful
one.
He chose instead to have Tartuffe caress very awkwardly El-

mire’s breasts and legs, and then
mimic an unsuccessful attempt
to undress Elmire. This interpretation, totally out of place,
simply resulted in the actors
making asses out of themselves.
Case did avoid assigning the
role of Tartuffe to someone who
is usually and mistakenly portrayed as a greasy and ugly old
man.

The setting, which must be
made easily adaptable to many
theater halls, was more than adequate and the costumes were excellent, providing students with
a glimpse of the color and liveliness that can contribute to the
richness of Moliere’s plays.

Education and Ecstasy
by Jeremy

Joan Hewes

College Press Service

The principal is happy and I rejoice with him about the delicious,
perfectly balanced flow of outdoor
light into a room filled with beautiful children. But something disturbs me, a vinegary tingle at the
back of my neck. There is a witch
in this room.
I see her near the back of the

fourth row

milk-white skin, black

—

hair falling onto a faded blue
blouse, a band of freckles across
the bridge of a small, sharp nose.
Dark eyes with dilated pupils are
fixed on me now, bold and direct,
telling me that she knows, without

words, everything that needs to be

known about me.

I return her stare, feeling that

this girl, with an education she is
not likely to get, might foretell the
future, read signs, converse with
spirits. In Salem she eventually
would suffer the ordeal of fire and
water.
In our society she will be adjusted.
An observer visited a typical
school somewhere, but it wasn't
the perfect lighting, language
labs or multi-degreed teachers
that impressed him. In an instant
he was struck wiht the realization of what education now is
and what ecstacy it could be: a
fifth-grade witch had stared him
down.

The visitor was George B.
Leonard, Senior Editor of Look
magazine, where he has reported
on education, and vice president
of California’s Esalen Institute,
where he has explored paths to
ecstacy. Thus, his Education and
Ecstacy is a product of thorough
study and imaginative experience.

Education redefined
Leonard envisions an overhaul

of this initiation process, by applying theories, methods and
technological devices that already

exist. First, education would be
redefined: “The whole superstructure of rational-symbolic knowledge can be rearranged so that
these aspects of life’s possibilities
can be perceived and learned as
unity and diversity within change
rather than fragmentation within
an illusory permanence.” This
concept of education would encompass all facets of human functioning, and education would become “a lifelong pursuit for everyone.”
Teachers would share in the
learning process with students by
expanding consciousness and exploring everyone and everything
around them. They would pursue
the magic moments of learning
that sometimes occur in classrooms today and would become
accomplished at techniques of
discovering or creating the delight that makes learning worth
it.
In fact, society has always had
such teachers; Leonard calls them
persons who know what
rogues
being alive is and who have captured our imagination for just
that reason. The old rogues are
adventurers like Robin Hood,
mystics like Christ, mad scientists
like Frankenstein, and artists like
Dali. The rogues teach us “the
first elementary lesson about a
in which new technollife
whether outside or inside
ogy
the human organism
is not
feared and resisted, but deflected
toward humane uses.” Today’s
rogues are today’s children, the
author states, and education
should let them discover and express the ecstaey of being alive.

'Apprenticeship for life'
This free-learning school creates a total environment for learning, the situation Leonard considers vital to education as “an
apprenticeship for life.” He dis-

Parents might then see, Leonard
reasons, just how much is learned
in a day and how much of the
child’s valuable time and potential are wasted.
This is not to say that schools
would cease to exist. Rather, institutions such as New York’s Fifteenth Street School would operate, and presumably their “freelearning atmosphere would offer
the delights of learning to eager
children.” The Fifteenth Street
School, founded by actor Orson
Bean, offers no formal classroom
instruction, though five “teachers” read aloud from texts, discuss ideas with students and offer guidance. The school provides
books, lounges, art materials,
games and playing space, and
the children are free to work and
play at will.

left me with a rather uneasy feeling.

In the background the tour guide
on in his deadly monotone:
"Next tour will be conducted in 15 minutes, get your tickets now."
Meanwhile, in the far left-hand corner of 'he visitors' area, the outstretched
arms of mighty Zeus look curiously similar to those photos one sees so often
on television these days You know,
"and this week in Vietnam, the Green

But I must move on to Conference
Room 1, where the General Assembly
at this very moment is having its 18th
annual discussion on the question of
the entrance of Red China info the
world; rather, the United Nations.
I'm just in time to catch the peculiar
parliamentary procedure involved in this
the 1724th Plenary meeting of the General Assembly.

drones

Important question
"In accordance with Article 18 of the
United Nations Charter," states the acting president, "the General Assembly
reaffairms the decision that any proposal to change the representation of
China is an 'important' question. Therefore a two-thirds majority vote is required for admittance."
With the resolution now safely assured of defeat, the acting president
proceeds to read the agenda for the
next meeting; "At the 1725th Plenary
meeting, the General Assembly will discuss the problems of human environment."

'Get your tickets now," echoes the
tour guide.
The next meeting on the schedule is
the Legal Committee's Conference on
the Question of Defining Aggression. It
seems that some of the delegates appear to be in disagreement as to what
should be included in this definition.
The chairman has recognized the distinguished representative from Belgium,
The representative is replying in a rather flat voice: "My delegation feels very
strongly that further study or comment
on

this issue is ridiculous. We

see ab-

solutely no reason for the continuation
of this committee. It should be abolished."

Aggression defined
The chair next recognizes the distinguished representative from the Soviet Union. "The United States delegation is against a definition of aggression.

I

can

tell from here."

The discussion now shifts to the representative of Uruguay. "Mr. Chairman,
Uruguay loves law and order. I wave
consecutive interpretation."

The chair now turns to the delegation
from the United States. "Mr. Chairman,"
begins the United States representative,
"The Soviet Union is against a definition
of aggressibn. At least the United States
'doesn't invade or trample' on other
States."
With the debate finally over, the
chairman proceeds to express "my deep
gratification to all the members of the
Legal Committee for your efforts. You're
to be congratulated."
While wandering about after the Legal Committee session, I heard some
rather loud applause suddenly burst
forth from Conference Room 2. There
the United Nations Council on Namibia
was presenting its proposals with reference

to

South Africa's "invasion" of

Namibia.

At this point the delegate from the

meeting. "But what about the United

"You have not been recognized,' responded the Chairman. "No, no," continued the delegate from the Dominican
Republic, "you're thinking of China.

Ivory is a group that sounds

In their album,

“Ivory,” they climb to musical
peaks that at times can only be
described as hard rock, while at
others they flow into the soft
melodious riffs of a folk tune.
Sedate sonics flow into amplified
insanity as this group moves

Ivory puts out kaleidoscopic visions set to the music of our times.

A Thought.

Flexible guitar
The album’s guitar work sometimes falters on complicated riffs
but is continually good in its
thorough use of its sound potential. Another pleasing factor
about the lead guitar is that it
has the fuzz tone quality familiar
to guitarist James Gurley of Big
Brother and the Holding Company
and Henry Vestine of
Canned Heat, The remarkable
thing about the guitar is that it
easily switches from the hard
rock sound to soft folk melodies.
How do you make Ivory? You
take one part Chris Christman’s

singing, one part lyrics, a pinch
of piano and organ, a measure
of amplified guitar, stir them all
up into a sound studio; cut a

number of songs, release them
and cross your fingers.
I know I like them. But I am
only one person. With good
breaks and proper exposure to
the public, Ivory has all the
makings of a leader in the
world of popular music.—J. F.

"Choreographers Evening" will allow any mem-

ber of the University community to present original
work. The creation of the individual need not be a
strict dance form. The realms of mime, music interpretation and improvisation may be incorporated
into the choreography. Programs presented may be
performed individually or with a group, but stress
must be placed on the fact that originality is essential. The Dance Club plans to offer the members a
chance to perform their work before an audience
next semester.
The program is held every Tuesday, from 6 p.m.
to 9 p.m., in the Dance Studio at Clark Gym. All are
invited to attend.

�Head Comix: Acid

for Charlie Brown
by Pat Henry
College Press

Service

The comics we grew up with
have a potential for communicapertion that has been wasted,
verted, or ignored by most artists.

Intelligent satire has not been
art
,

,

,

recently
the keynote of comic
and nothing is left to stop the
likes of Harold Gray and A1
Capp from rushing in and filling
the void with tired, right-wing
propaganda. The strips that manage to steer clear of politics and
morals usually have all the grace
and humorous vigor of a TV
situation comedy at the bottom
of Mr. Nielsen’s rating pile. No
strip has the courage to make
light of sex, drugs and those other awful things, and no single
artist has ever gotten the idea
that techniques can be tried
today that weren’t tried 50 years
ago.

At this point, of course, we
can make the one exception that
breaks the rule. He is Robert
Crumb, a young artist whose work
has appeared in the East Village
Other, Yarrowstalks, and upon
the cover of Big Brother and the
Holding Company’s album, Cheap
Thrills.
Viking Press has published a
collection of vintage Crumb called
“Head Comix” that will be decried as smutty by some, old camp
by others, but acclaimed as hilarious stuff by just about everybody else.

Heavy satire
Crumb’s thing is satire and in
“Head Comix” he draws it heavy,
light, and fast with a brand of
ink that must be cut with a dose
of acid. His figures have the
eerie, nostalgic look of the caricatures that used to decorate
Steeplechase Park in Coney Island
thick-limbed, fleshy, and
grimly ludicrous. Some of the
pieces in Head Comix rely on
early Mad-type slapstick to put
their points across, but many of
the best strips reflect a style
of comic art that Crumb alone
seems to have mastered
the
—

—

use of homely, everyday dialogue
with his satiric types.
Witness a bit called “Life
Among the Constipated;” in this
one, Crumb draws plain, ordinary
people doing simple things like
eating dinner, watching TV, and
scrawling obscenities on walls
and damned if they don’t have
the same slurred, choppy kind
of speech as the folks back
home. All of Crumb’s people are
like that
sickeningly real
we wind up laughing at ourselves, though we’d like to think
—

—

’°

that those slimy caricatures are
not really portraits of America
at work and play.

Fritz fantasy
Crumb has also indulged in
bits of fantasy that do just as
much damage to one's cool as
the stories that are peopled with
actual human beings. “Fritz the
Cat” is a pornographic little fairy
story about a day in the life of
the title character, “a sophisticated, up-to-the-minute young feline college student who lives in
a ‘supercity’ of millions of animals.”
Fritz is the ideal male: he picks
up three females in the park,
gets all of them at once in a
friend’s bathtub, and escapes a
police raid by stealing a gun
and shooting the toilet to death.
Crumb’s jabs at horny, pot-muddled youths are not calculated to
be offensive, but they are not easy
to take if you can admit to ever
having done any thrill seeking.
Fritz and his buddies may be
animals, but you can’t really
say that they’re any worse off
than you are.
No pessimist is Crumb, however. He has drawn four stories
about a bearded dwarf called
Mr. Natural, “the man from Affiganistan” who is the only true
uebermensch of the lot, Mr.
Natural is a homebaked philosopher who mooches off his friends
while providing them with invaluable bits of advice (“the
whole universe is completely insane!”) and gets away with it.

Heaven is corny
He even has the

nerve to tell

God
and Crumb
Him just the way you’ve
Him)
always imagined
that heaven
is corny and is only forced to do
mild penance for his malediction
at the hands of an agent named
Cheesis K. Reist. Later on he
shows up to institutionalize a
cubistic character called Schuman
the Human who has committed
the unforgivable crime of trying
to solve his own behavior problems.
Crumb’s Head Comix are taught
to laugh at, plain and simple. The
artist doesn’t moralize
he does
not have to although he docs
give his readers plenty to ponder
if they can control the inevitable
hysterics. In the introduction to
the volume the venerable Paul
Krassmer calls him “responsible
for turning good old Charlie
Brown on LSD;" maybe that’s
so, but Robert Crumb has found
a better trip and kept it all for
himself.

�Blacks charge NSA with racism
Black student members of the National Student Association labeled the organization “racist” at an NSA conference
held Nov. 28 through Dec. 1. Presenting a number of demands regarding the abolishment of institutional racism, the
black students stated that the “motivation and efforts of the
NSA in sponsoring this conference were sincere . . . but realistically this initial attempt was not as effective and stimulating as it should have been.”
The conference on Institutional Racism, held at the
University of Notre Dame in
Indiana, was attended by several students from the State
University of Buffalo.
These included Tracy Cottone,
Don MacGregor, Elaine Kolb, Ar
thur Kovacs, Tom Potter and Oliver Townes,

The Black Students’ Caucus expressed the feeling that “the exchange of ideas and information
between students was favorable,”
however the following reasons
were given to attribute to the
failure of the conference;
•

NSA

in itself, is a racist or-

ganization;
NSA's institutional position
caused it unconsciously to foster
the racist system, of which it is a
part;
•

Black people were not incorporated into the structuring of
this conference in consulting
•

roles;

NSA should have had black
to white dialogues before attempting to have white to white interactions to solve these problems.
•

It was reported that black students had been discouraged from
attending the conference due to
the fact that its purpose was to
examine white institutional racism and attempt to have white
students find solutions to the
problems of such racism.
The black students commented

on the effect of the conference:
“Despite the failure of the conference on Institutional Racism,

the National Student Association
must continue in its efforts to
end institutional racism on the
college campus. The NSA is a
service organization with the responsibility of assisting all students on matters concerning student welfare.”
“Recognizing this the USNSA
must:

initiate programs to include
black students

•

munication for black students
among themselves
NSA should provide information concerning funds available to black student organizations for their programs
•

establish an interracial committee that is responsible for the
termination of institutional racism in American academic institutions and eventually in society."
•

Tracy Cottone, second vicepresident of the Student Associa-

tion noted that the

conference

placed emphasis on the fact that
the problem of institutional racism is much larger than anyone
had expected and that there is
much to be done if it is to be

abolished.
Elaine Kolb, a member of the
Steering Committee of the Community Aid Corps, said that many
students had left the conference
“disappointed or disillusioned"
because of the collapse of the
structure of the conference.
The agenda was reportedly disregarded because of the amount
of dissent among those attending
as to what issues were most vital
and how they should be exam-

ined.

“Institutional racism isn’t
solved in a conference,” Miss
Kolb continued. “The purpose of
the conference is to share ideas.

Miss Kolb reported that Father

disagreement in his attempt to

Frustration encountered
“I think the black students
were frustrated,” Mr. MacGregor
continued, “because they had
come to help by pointing out the
problem areas. However, the conference attitude was mainly con-

cerned with white students who
wanted to examine the problems
of white racism and they saw no
need for the attendance of the
black students.

“Ranting and raving radicals
will not change things,” she continued. “Tactics such as those
used were of this nature and ac-

“Something which I personally
gained from the conference,” Mr.
MacGregor continued, “was a development of the idea that you

with a view to finding solutions

Like many of the nation’s top universities, the State University
of Buffalo has expressed a committment to establish a Black Studies
Program. Dr. Hollis R. Lynch, director of the proposed Black Studies
Program, on the advice of his Faculty and the student advisory committee, has called a public hearing on the proposal to be held in the
Haas Lounge at 4 p.m. Monday.

prove the socio economic condition of the Black Man in America.’

•

A panel of six, comprised of representatives from the black comstudents and faculty will answer questions about the proposal
be incorporated into a foras well as listen to suggestions which might

mal proposal.

The background of the proposal is outlined in its introduction, the
of which follows:

“It is widely admitted that the
most serious crisis the nation
faces is urban disorders and racial
conflicts caused by long and pervasive white racism. Throughout most of this nation’s history
the black man has been degraded,
brutalized, exploited, segregated
and debarred from opportunities
to achieving human dignity. Yet,
against almost insuperable odds,
the black man has fought long,
hard, sometimes desperately, but
mostly peacefully to become an
integral and respected part of
American society. Since 1964, his
frustration, stemming from his
deteriorating position in the
crowded inner cities, in the face
of the marked and growing affluence of white suburban America, has led to unprecedented
urban violence.
“It was in particular the costly
disorders of the summer of 1967
which impressed upon Americans
the gravity of the crisis in black
and white, and on the part of the
enlightened the need to take urgent and concerted steps to confront and attempt to solve the
problem. As a result of the crisis,
President Johnson appointed a
Commission on Civil Disorders on
July 27, 1967. The Commission’s
Report, issued in March, made
history by unequivocally attributing the urban disorders and the
plight of Afro-Americans t6 white
racism.

Quotes report
“It stated that ‘White racism is
essentially responsible for the explosive mixture which has been
. .
accumulating in our cities
(p. 203); and again: ‘What white
Americans have never fully understood—but what the Negro
cannot forget—is that white society is deeply implicated in the
ghetto. White institutions created
it, white institutions maintain it
and white society condones it.’
The report conveyed the need for
urgent action on the part of all
responsible Americans: ‘The tragic waste of human spirit and resources, the unrecoverable loss to
the nation which this denial—of
freedom and equality of opportunity—has already caused—and continues to produce—no longer can
.

be ignored or afforded (p. 34).’ It
called for ‘an American commitment to confront those conditions
and eliminate them—a commitment so clear that Negro citizens
will know its truth and accept
its goal.’

“The program's objectives are:
study all aspects of the
Afro-American experience with a
view to providing a proper appreciation of the contribution of
black Americans to American history and culture, as well as a full
understanding of the problems,
some of them peculiar, which
Afro-Americans have faced. Such
appreciation and understanding is
a vital first step in dispelling the
distorted and derogatory image
of the black man in the minds of
white America and in producing
mutual respect betwen black and
white.

•

Quick University reaction
“Our University was quick to
recognize this need. This was reflected in the following statement
of President Meyerson at the University’s memorial service for Dr.
King: ‘We in the University must
begin now to do everything that
is in our power to help create a
society in which dialogue and
constructive, tangible achievement will replace the violence
and prejudice that threaten to
tear our society apart if we do
not act boldly and effectively.’

endgridiron season
Bulls
with victory over Boston
The State University of Buffalo closed out its finest football
season in nine years by edging
Boston University 13-10 before
5600 chilled fans at Boston’s
Nickerson Field.
Not since 1959 when Coach
Dick Offenheimer’s Bulls racked
up a 9-1 log, have Buffalo gridiron fans had so much to cheer
about. The win over the Terriers
was the Bulls' fourth straight
triumph and left the team with
a 7-3 record against top-flight
competition.
Defeating Boston was especially gratifying for Buffalo Head
Coach Doc Urich. Not only was
Doc anxious to avenge a 1966 2616 Boston win, but a Buffalo victory would give the Bulls’ head

mentor his best record in his
three-year tenure at State University of Buffalo.

And for a while it looked like
Doe and the Bulls were going to
be denied. Taking the opening
kickoff the Terriers drove down
the field. Two key passes from
Boston quarterback Bob Calascibetta to his tight end Bob Jewitt
along with some hard running by
Boston halfback Barry Pryor gave
the Terriers a first and goal on
the Bull’s seven yard line.
But on the next play Buffalo
defensive end John Pryzbycien
dropped Calascibetta for an eightyard loss and the Bulls’ defense
toughened. Two running plays by
Boston gained nought, so Bob
Rappaport booted a 29-yard field
goal squarely between the uprights for a 3-0 Terrier lead.

Boston widens lead
Not content with just a threepoint lead, Boston called on its

punt return specialist Bruce Taylor. Fielding a Paul Jack punt
on the Terrier’s 34-yard line, Taylor made a beeline right through
the first wave of Buffalo tacklers,
cut back to the center of the
field, and out-raced everybody
for a 66-yard touchdown run. That
made it 10-0 for the Terriers,
still in the first quarter, and another Boston Tea Party appeared
to be in the offing.
But as fate and the Buffalo
defense would have it, Boston
was to score nothing more for
the rest of the afternoon, while
the Bulls offense pulled out the
victory.

Buffalo began its comeback
late in the second quarter. The
Bulls fielded a short Terrier
punt on the Buffalo 45, and the
offense began to roll. Quarterback Denny Mason hit tight end
Paul Lang with a bullet pass
over the middle to the Boston 49
yard line. Mason then came back
with a third down heave to
flanker Barnely Woodward who
carried the ball and two Boston
defenders to the 15-yard stripe.
The Bulls then ground out the
final 15 yards with Joe Zelmanski scoring on a five-yard smash
over the left side of the Boston
line. Buffalo’s try for the twopoint conversion failed, and the
Terriers still led, 10-6, after the
first half.
The third quarter settled into
a defensive battle as neither the
Bulls nor the Terrirs could master much of an offensive threat.
Boston had the only serious scoring opportunity of the quarter,
but Buffalo’s Russ Beck dropped
quarterback Bob Calascibetta for

an

loss which took
the Terriers’ momentum.

eight-yard

away

Bulls scoi-e winning TD
Time was running out when
the Bulls bgean their winning
touchdown drive. And once again
it was the passing of Denny Mason
which sparked the Buffalo offense. The senior signalcaller
from Timon High School connected with Gary Chapp who
rambled 40 yards before finally
being collared on the Boston 34
yard line.
Sticking with success, Mason
rifled another pass to Paul Lang
who took the pigskin onto the
seven yard stripe. Pat Patterson
then followed magnificent offensive blocking into the end zone
on a sweep to his left, and the
game belonged to Buffalo. Senior
Bob Embow then kicked the final
point after touchdown of his collegiate career and the Bulls had
the game, 13-10.
After the game Buffalo’s Doc
Urich was one happy coach. The
Doc had plenty of reason for joy.
For one thing he escaped the
customary shower given to Bufhead coaches, and for another the
7-3 Buffalo record eclipsed his
two previous years as football
coach. Doc was 5-5 in 1966, 6-4
in ’67, and now 7-3 for the 1968

predictions

strike-out

Colts to down Packers
Spectrum Staff Reporter

A whole lot has happened while we were gone. Dallas
clinched the Century Division title in the NFL and the Jets
clinched the East in the AFL. Neither win comes as anything
resembling a major surprise, considering the fact that Dallas’
only competition was the Giants and the Jets’ troubles came
from Heidi.
The other divisional matchups are still up in the air.
In the Capitol Division, Cleveland looks good. St. Louis
still has a shot, but the way
Bill Nelsen and Leroy Kelly
looked on TV against the
Giants last Sunday, the
Browns, are in.
Over in the Central Division, it
seems like no one wants it. The
Vikings arc leading now, with the
Packers and the Bears close behind. The whole thing is, none of
the teams has a record which
would put them in the running
for anything in any other race.
It figures that the Packers will
manage to pull it out, since Minnesota now has no quarterback,
for all intents and purposes.
The Coastal race is the best in
the NFL. Baltimore and the Rams
are tied, with the big game coming up next week. The Colls’ have
put on the most amazing display
of defense in league history. Their
points-against total is 117, which
averages out to less than ten
points a game. And if that isn’t
enough, they’ve given up just 16
points in their last six games,
three of which have been shut
outs. This week they are at Green
Bay which promises to be some
kind of battle: and with the Rams

next week, they are going to be
tested, no doubt.

The Jets of New York, as we
mentioned before, are the Eastern
champs in the AFL. Joe Namath,
having his best season the Jets’

receiving corps featuring George
Sauer and Don Maynard; and the
defense led by Verlon Biggs and
Johnny Sample, arc all to be
credited with superhuman efforts.
The rest of the squad played well

all year, with a number of standout perfo mances. The Jets were
truly a great ball club, especially
considering the competition they
had to beat out in the East.
Over in the West, three is a
tight one. Kansas City and Oak-

land are all tied up, and neither
of them shows any signs of giving
in. San Diego is only a game
back, so they’re not out of it yet,
either. A tie looks very possible
here.

One

from last

note

week’s

games: The Philadelphia Eagles
are no longer a cinch for OJ.
They beat, no on second thought,
make that shmeared the Lions on
Thanksgiving Day. They are now
tied with our own Bills in the

Losers’ Derby. This week will tell
all.

NFL picks
Saturday’s Game: Baltimore 24,
Green Bay 6: Sorry, Pack. Your
Ballroom Days are Over! Anyone
who saw the 49'ers score all those
points in the last quarter Sunday
has to believe that the old days
of Green Bay glory have ended.
So, this lime we write the Packers off for good. Until next week.
New York 31, S«. Louis 21:
Actually, there is no reason for
picking this score, or even to pick
the Giants at all. That is exactly
the reason for doing it. Gary
Wood will get his big chance this
week,

and

he should

do well

against the Cards' terrible defense.

Los Angeles 38, Chicago 10: A
biggie for the Rams. The Bears,
if they had to play an entire season without Gale Sayers and Virgil Carter, would he the worst
team in football. Right now. they
may well be the worst team in
football.

Cleveland 41, Washington 24;
The Browns are the hot team
nowadays; They’ve scored 30 or
more in their last 7 sanies. Washington is best described, judging
from their recent efforts, as somewhere between nondescript and
apathetic.

Detroit

24, Atlanta

13;

Why

not? Atlanta is awful The Lions
aren't so good themselves. Someone has got to win. Or. there
might be a lie. Neither team will
show up.

17, San Francisco 14;
This is the hardest one to pick
this week. Frisco played a great
fourth quarter against the Packers, and the Vikings were pounded by, the Rams. It logically figures that the 49’ers should romp.
But, the Vikings are our favorites
to win the division.
Dallas 31, Pittsburgh 10: No
contest. The Cowboys are tuning
up for the Browns later on, and
the Steelers are just playing out
the string. Jerry Rhome, who will
play some this week, will show a
national TV audience why he was
the best QB in college football a
few years ago.

Philadelphia 19, New Orleans
17: A surprise upset. The Eagles
blow their OJ chances this week,

allowing the Heisman winner to
become a Buffalo Bill.

AFL picks
Houston 17, Buffalo 13: A Saturday Specetacular, Ed Rutkowski, the 58th man to play quarterback for the Bills this year, will
sustain a serious case of hangnail
in the pre-game warmups, allowing Tom Day to become the second black quarterback in pro football history. Day will, unfortunately, fumble on a quarterback
sneak on the Houston one-yard
line in the last second, thus becoming the Bills’ 59th quarterback to fumble on the opponents’
one yard line this season.
New York 37, Cincinnati 7: Don
Maynard, who now holds the alltime pro record for yards gained
receiving having broken Raymond
Berry’s record last Sunday, will
catch a couple of TD passes from
Babe Pari Hi. Add two TD’s for
George Sauer and some field
goals for Jim Turner.
Miami 24, Boston 14; This writer was. very impressed with Bob
Griese against the Jets last week.
If cornerback Jimmy Warren can
recover from Don Maynard, the
Dolphins have this one.
Oakland 46, Denver 27: A freefor-all, with the Raiders taking an
early lead of two or three touchdowns and then trading points.
Watch Marlin “The Magician”
Briscoe, the Broncos' QB. He has
an unbelievable arm.
Kansas City 24, San Diego 21:The big one in the AFL this week.
The Chiefs eliminate the Chargers
in a real close one. Top rookie
Bobby Holmes is on display here.
He will have a big day.

It took the New York Jets nine years but finally they have cap.
tured a league championship and in the process have given the city
of New York its first championship in any sport since 1964 when the
Yankees faced the Cardinals in the World Series. To their long-suffering fans who have been fed a steady diet of empty promises of
championship for the last couple of years by an over-confident man
agement, victory couldn’t have come fast enough. Victory also brings
back memories of a not too distant past when the Jets were the
T-I-T-A-N-S.
The nicest thing that you can say about the New York Titans is
that a lot of people have forgotten that there ever was a team by that
name. But not everyone. As a ten-year-old kid living on Long Gisland
(yeah I know I spelled it wrong but that’s the way people in Buffalo
say we pronounce it), when the New York Titans came into being
in 1960, I developed an immediate liking towards them. Needless to
say there weren’t too many Titan fans around as the New York
Giants with Sam Huff at middle linebacker were at the peak of their
popularity at this time.
The scouting report for the Titans, year in and year out, always
read something like this: there arc a lot of warm bodies but few foot
ball players. This helps to explain why it is so difficult to remember
any of the illustrious members of the Titans. Of course everyone
knows that three present day Jets, Linebacker Larry Grantham, Flank
e'r Don Maynard and Halfback Billy Mathis were original Titans
After that the list narrows down to A1 Darrow, Johnny Green, Lee
Grosscup, Art Powell. Roger Donahoo, Dick Wood and Bill Shockley.
The two coaches were Sammy Baugh and Clyde “Bulldog” Turner
The owner was none other than the late Harry Wismer.
The Titans played their games before very few people in the
Polo Grounds. One always remembers the public address announcer
saying that the attendance was 20,000 when it was clear to just about
everyone but that poor man that there weren’t more than 500 people
in the stands and the latter figure included the peanut vendors. The
Titans were so-bad that even if they gave the tickets away free, people
wouldn’t come to the games.
It’s very strange but at the same time that the Titans were dy
ing, their baseball counterparts, the Mots, were becoming a huge sue
cess. The Mets, though, had the advantage of joining an established
league and also had the potential of making converts of the old
Brooklyn Dodger and New York Giant fans who could never bring
themselves to become Yankee fans. The Titans on the other hand,
were a new team in a new league, without the benefit of any name
players and consequently, never could get enough publicity or exposure.

After the 1963 season, the Titans vanished from the scene never
to be heard from again. Harry Wismer, who always operated the
franchise on a shoestring, couldn't afford to pay his players’ salaries.
Each Sunday the ( Titans went out on the field and did their thing
which they labeled football for those dubious spectators who weren't
sure, not knowing whether they would get paid for their efforts.
Sonny Werblin took over the franchise, changed the name to the
Jets, hired Weeb Ewbank as coach and started to build a brand new
organization. The Jets’ first year saw the emergence of a new star at
middlebacker, Wahoo McDaniel. The fact was that Wahoo wasn’t
much of a football player but a warm body whose chief asset was his

colorful nickname.

On Jan. 1. 1965, Joe Namath became a New York Jet and formed
the nucleus of the championship ball club. Many things have been
written about Joe (1 know one fellow who maintains that Joe is,a
drunk and that he has played several games in a slight stupor) and
his super arm and his lack of brainpower. At the beginning of the
year, the columnists who have long stated that the Jets could never
win a championship with Ewbank as the coach, began to change their
tune slightly and said that the Jets couldn’t win with Namath as the

quarterback.

Five teams finish intramural
football season without a loss
Despite usual bad weather and
poor playing conditions, the foot-

ball intramural leagues managed
to come to an end this week. All
of the games were played at the
“new campus,” where the drainage problem is hoped to be resolved for next years intra-University competition.

to
season with win
Before his team took to the ice against Canton Tech last

Friday night, State University of Buffalo hockey coach Steve
Newman outlined the basic strategy he desired his team to

employ
Mr. Newman knew the Tech first line of Geruw, Hill and
Nicholson would be tough and informed his team that containing them, as well as avoiding penalties, would be the
key factors in the upcoming game.
Its inability to do either of the
above led the team to a 6-2 defeat.
However, the Bulls recovered
their poise and turned in a remarkable performance Saturday
afternoon against an awesome
Colgate squad with a 5-4 victory.
It was apparent at the outset
that the Bulls were in for a long
night in Canton. Tech put an
incredible amount of pressure on
the Bulls’ goal during the early
stages of the first period. Their
efforts were rewarded at 6:40
when Geruw took the puck in
front of the Bulls’ goal and
adroitly poked it into the left
side of the cage.

Bulls tie score

Although a man short at the
time, the Bulls managed to tie
the score at 9:58 when Bob Bundy took a breakaway pass from
Bill Newman and skillfully feinted the Tech goalie out of position, tucking the puck neatly into
the lower right corner of the
net.
However, Tech regained the
lead quickly when Hill slammed
home a rebound at 10:45 on what
was to be the first of five consecutive Canton Tech power-play
goals.
Canton added to its lead at
5:20 of the second period when
Geruw scored again, this time as
a resuR of a 40-foot slapshot
into the lower left corner of the
goal.
The magnificent Tech first line

made the score 4-1 when Hill,
rebounds, put the
puck home at 19:45 of the second
period. They wasted little time,
scoring again at 0:56 of the final
stanza when Hill completed the
“hat trick,” this time beating
Bulls’ goaltender Mike Dunne
cleanly with a 45-foot slapshot.
Tech’s Geruw joined Hill by
scoring his third goal at 7:10,
stealing the puck from a Bulls’
defender and putting in a shot in
the lower left hand comer of the
after numerous

net.

Honor saved

Bill Defoe saved Buffalo’s hon

or somewhat by capping off the
scoring at 10:48 with help from

Nick Beaver and Bill Newman.
The reasons for the Bulls’ defeat go far beyond the excellent
play of the Tech first line or the
33 minutes in penalties amassed
by Bulls’ players. The facts are
that Buffalo was simply outplayed both offensively and defensively, as the final shots on
goal statistics illustrate. Canton
took 41 shots at the Bull goal
while Buffalo managed only 17.
However, that is not to say
that penalties were not important
in the determination of the outcome, Bulls' General Manager
Howard Piaster, reviewing the
game, cited the numerous penalties assessed to Bulls’ icers and
illustrated how they “changed the
game around.” Of the six Tech
goals, five occurred with Buffalo
Players in the penalty box.

The reasons for the unusual
number of penalties can basically
be attributed to philosophies.
Coach Newman, in the Canadian
tradition, has emphasized in practice a tight, tough checking game
which in reality could only be
achieved by stretching the rules.
American referees, however, are
not accustomed to rough play and
tend to blow their whistles quickly, as well as frequently.

Mr. Newman was fully aware of
this as he instructed his team not
to be overly aggressive in the
Colgate locker room before Saturday’s game with the Red Raiders.

He needn’t have worried. Superlatives are the only terms that
can be used to describe the truly
magnificent play of the revengeful Bulls in the opening period.
Buffalo opened the scoring at
4:06 when Jim McKowne deflected a slapshot into the left side
of the Colgate goal.
Throughout the period the
Bulls continued to dominate completely, scoring at 15:16 and again
at 17:52. The former goal was
scored when Frank Lewis
slammed home the puck following
a beautiful backhanded pass from
Bill Newman.

Beaver is decoy
The latter resulted from Len
DePrima’s and Nick Beaver’s twoman breakaway, with DePrima
using Beaver as a decoy on the
left side. Together they skated
in, passing the puck back and
forth until DePrima saw his opening on the right side and promptly put the puck there. It was as
pretty a goal as could be imagined.

The Bulls, judging from their
area play, should have led by
more than 3-0 after the first period. Their forechecking was unbelievable as they refused to let
the Red Raiders out of their zone.
The few times they managed to
get out, they were met by the
heads up playing of the Bull defense which played with reckless
abandon in protecting goalie Mike
Dunne, who was also superb. It
was just impossible to single out
any one man for his exceptional
play simply because every man
was exceptional.
However, the second period saw
the Bulls revert to their dread-

ful Saturday night form. Within
the first seven minutes of the
period, the Bulls had collected
four two-minute penalties and as
a result Colgate scored at 6:18.
following another Buffalo penalty, Colgate’s Fowster upped the
score to 3-2.

Disputed goal
The score was tied at the end
of the second period when Raider
forward Rouell tallied a disputed
goal at what the officials called
19:59. Many claimed that Rouell
crossed the Bulls’ blue line at
19:59 and clearly could not have
scored within the one second.
However, the goal stood with the
referee dismissing the vehement
protests of Bill Defoe with the
explanation that his decision was
a “judgement call.”
The Bulls regained the lead in
the third period when Bill Newman took a picture perfect pass
from Brian Boyer on the left side
and slammed the puck home over
the outstretched figure that was
the Colgate goaltender at 7:14.
Apparently Newman was not
content with one goal, since he
scored again 57 seconds later, this
time from point blank range in
front of the net. It was to be the
Bulls’ final goal and the deciding
one as well.
Just as it appeared that the
game was secure, Rouell scored
again for Colgate at 16:01, making the score a tense 54.

The Baby Bulls opened their
1968-69 basketball campaign Monday with a tough 76-67 win over
the Buffalo State freshmen.
This was a nip-and-tuck affair
for the Mutomen as the lead
changed hands nine times during
the game before guard Larry Wilbur put his team in the lead for
good with a free throw. Only 5
minutes remained when Wilbur
notched his clutch charity toss to
make the score read 49-48 in the
Bulls’ favor.
The frosh, who led at halftime
39-34, quickly saw their lead dissipate as the host State team ran
off seven quick points to open
the second half. Trailing 41-39,
the Bulls then countered on a
length of the court driving layup
by speedster Ron Gilliam to deadlock the game at 41-all. The score
then changed hands several times
before Wilbur’s key free throw.

Rusmussen high scorer
Buffalo’s forward Eric Rasmussen was their high scorer with 22
points and the game’s leading rebounder with 13. Rasmussen was
praised by Coach Muto for “contributing several clutch baskets
in tight situations. He was our
spark out there tonight."
The Bulls shot an

impressive

45% from the field, making good
on 27 of 60. The Orangemen, taking considerably less shots, hit
on 21 of 47, for 44.7%.
The Mutbmen hit on 22 of 36
free throws, while State connected on 25 of 41 charity tosses. The
white-shirted yearlings dominated
the boards, snatching 51 rebounds
to State’s 33.
Individual sharpshooters for
the Baby Bulls were Rasmussen
with seven of 12 field goals, Bob
Cabbagestalk with five of 11 field
goals, and Ed Hubert with five of
eight field goals.
Hoofbeats—The yearlings went
with a man-for-man full court
press most of the game. Their
tight defense forced numerous
State turnovers on bad passes and
interceptions by Buffalo players.

The frosh will entertain Gene-

seo tonight in the first half of
the Clark Gym doubleheader
starting at 6:30 p.m. Following
the frosh debacle, the varsity will
take on Toronto. Admission is
free to all full-time students paying athletic fees and presenting
ID cards. The varsity will encounter Akron Saturday in the first
half of a doubleheader at the

Aud.

Game time will be at 7

p.m.

Raiders thwarted
From then on, the Raiders exerted unbelievably strong pressure only to be twarted by the
strong play of defensemen Bill
Defoe, Brian Boyer, Jim Miller
and Bob Goody, as well as the
crucial and magnificent saves of
Bulls’ netminder Mike Dunne.
When the final buzzer sounded,
the Bulls realized that they had
achieved a well-earned victory in
a well-played, hard fought and
immensely exciting game.
Ice chips—The Colgate squad
consisted of a conglomeration of
their freshman, J.V. and varsity
teams . . , The Bulls’ record now
. Nick Beaver had
stands at 3-1
a tough trip, requiring stitches
to close a wound suffered in Canton. He also bruised his knee at
Colgate but is not expected to

Darryl Pugh injured his back
against Canton Tech, and whether
he will be ready for play Saturday night to face Ithaca College
at the Amherst Recreational Center. Game time is 10 p.m. with
admission being free to athletic

else. Sunday night they meet the
Nichols Alumni, also in Amherst.

�Black athletes face
financial reprisals
The blacks on the school’s
football team had urged the Student Council to pass a resolution calling for the cancellation
of a proposed game with Brigham Young University the following weekend, as the Mormon
school’s religion has “serious
moral implications . . . with regard to the dignity of black Americans.”
The resolution also opposed
any disclipinary action against
athletes refusing to participate in
events
for example, the
Olympics during which San Jose

It

was thereafter announced
by college President Robert Clark
that any student refusing to play
in the game with Brigham Young

would lose his athletic scholarship, despite the Student Council
resolution.

In response, the campus Students for a Democratic Society
resolved to take over the Physical
Education building unless the
Council’s resolution and the demands of the United Black Students for Action, including a
black coach for the team, were
met. The strike was supported by
student James Edwards, brother
of Harry Edwards, a former professor and organizer of the black
athletes’ Olympic boycott.
Students stayed out of classes
Friday, and UBSA, SDS, and the
Mexican-American Student Confederation formed a steering committee. Other groups organized
through fraternities. One group.
The Responsible Majority, circulated anti-strike petitions. Committee leaders hoped that support for the strike would grow
as students became aware of the
issue and the need to take action.

I

Described as “the last of the old-time teachers,”
Dr. Stout was in fact an educationl reactionary. I
use the word reactionary not as a disparagement
of Dr, Stout but as the highest compliment I can
render him. He was a reactionary in the sense that
he envisioned a university in the old meaning of
a community of scholars dedicated to learning, and
not as a multiversity factory bent upon totally ignoring the needs of its undergraduates and dedicated to grinding out PhDs and esoteric research
papers in ever-increasing numbers. He was a complete reactionary in that he was totally dedicated
to the old ideal of a university and attempted to
transform this ideal into a reality, rather than
merely verbalizing about it.
It may seem presumptuous for me to write these
things about Dr. Stout, as I had known him only
for the short time when I was one of his freshman
seminar students. Even that short time, however,
was sufficient for me to be convinced of the truth
of the statements quoted at the beginning of this
piece.
“Sincerely concerned?” Dr. Stout had volunteered to teach our freshman seminar—for which
he received no extra pay—and had arranged for

transportation for us to his home, where the seminar was taught. His concern, however, extended
beyond this. He listened to some of our complaints
about the University one night and then devoted
the full session to listening to our gripes. He had
us write them down and then arranged a special
meeting to present them to Warren Bennis, academic vice-president.
My most vivid recollection of Dr. Stout concerns
this attempt of his to do something about our complaints. In a conversation one night after the seminar, one complaint had particularly irritated him
and he had uttered a few curses. His wife had attempted to calm him down, and he replied—as
nearly as I can recall—“Goddamnit, I won’t be
quiet. I’ve heard all this before from undergrads
and graduate students and I’m sick of it; I’ve had
all I can take and I’m near my breaking point.”
This was the only time in my recollection that
I had heard a professor express anger over the
quality of teaching on the undergraduate level, and
it Was an exhilirating experience. But more than
this, the incident typified Dr. Stout. He was an
old man who could have spent his last years of
teaching in doing nothing but riding along with the
system. Instead he chose to attempt to change it,
to beter it and if he happened to insult a few
people in the process, .1 don’t think he gave a damn.
His students, and the entire University, have
suffered a loss with his passing.

Black and white must work together
To the editor.
In reply to Bruce Brice. I am in complete agreement with his statement: “We need a transracial-

social-economic class enlightenment of people by
people.” He says he is ready "... to begin healing
and solving the enigma facing us.” Mr. Brice calls
for a White Student Association. Does he really
feel we can knock down racist barriers in the community as well as the University by polerizing into separate white and black groups? If social justice
is to be realized it must be by concerted effort. We
must push together, not from separate camps.
In his last paragraph Mr. Brice rightly puts the
debt of slavery on the white Establishment. I feel
we are not going to succeed in arriving at a just
society by laying blame anywhere. Surely a more

I am now a senior and since I first came to the
State University of Buffalo, I’ve been hearing:
"There’s a possibility of getting some theater space
on campus for next semester,” and each semester,
nothing happens. Four years is a long time to be
placated with words. People are vitally interested
in the theater. Students are taking it upon themselves to put together programs (such as Neil Hoos’
“Riots and Other Mental Exercise” and The Student
Theater Guild’s Nickel Theater productions). People
are writing, acting, directing, working, becoming in-

volved.

for an end to institutionalized racism. To be effective we must work together.

Conceptual Theater, is now beginning to work on
new techniques. Where will they perform when Norton space is constantly being vied for? Robert Nigro
already mentioned “Sweet Charity” in his letter.
What a ridiculous shame that he and his cast and
crew could do all that work and have to perform in
a place that virtually defies adequate seating and
sight lines. How can a program in theater make any
progress when there is no place for its students
to put a performing art into performance?

When will we get a theater? I understand there

Student attention needed

The right to speak

To the editor:

The proposed S/U grading system, new distribution
requirements and four-course load do not directly concern
students.

As a part of the drive to increase the voice of
the student body in the planning and development
of this institution, student attention should be directed to the uncertain state of plans for a student
union and for student services on the Amherst cam-

At least that’s the view of the Faculty Senate

A task force of interested

Yesterday in opening their discussions of a set of proposed academic reforms, the Senate agreed to give full
speaking privileges only to those students who Ijad been,
as members of various University-wide committees, directly
involved with the formulation of the proposals.

Two years ago. the Faculty Senate was an elite body of
tenured faculty, a powerful representative group representing really no one.
Last November the membership was expanded to include all full-time faculty in a sort of town-meeting type of
“democracy.”
1

Rap with ollie

At that time, following objections from students to
behind-closed-doors decision-making, individual meetings
were opened to admit students and others as “observers.”
At that time it also became customary to allow the respective student association presidents five minutes’ speaking
time, after which they could not ask or answer questions.
The fact that four students took part in the discussions yesterday is being hailed by faculty liberals as an example of
further Senate progress.

by Oliver D. Townes
Once I was asked by one of my soul sisters how
1 could assume the fact that I’m a mediator between
my brothers and the whites. I answered her question and now I feel obligated to answer that question again in this column.
To me, any black man who has reached a certain level of awareness about any concept of American life is automatically a mediator between the
white and black race. This applies to a doctor,

. Students are being admitted to membership in all the
Faculty Senate standing committees; their participation ends,
however, when a full Senate meeting begins.
-

The Student Association—recognizing that the only
way to guarantee the most effective and reasonable solutions to problems is to provide for an open debate on the
issues—conducts open meetings, where all speakers are
recognized. Some faculty members, in efforts to increase
lines of communication, have taken advantage of this opportunity, and students have welcomed their sentiments.
Most faculty members, however, apparently think they
already know what student sentiment is—or, worse, they
don’t care.
The treachery of such elitist attitudes is clearly evident
in an examination of faculty arguments used in the debates
last year on campus recruiting.

In discussing an area which almost solely concerns
students, the Senate condescended at that time to hear the
perfunctory five-minute speeches from the "student leaders"
—that was the extent of the student/faculty dialogue.
Then, while meeting in a closed decision-making arena
(not only could students not vote, but they could also not
speak), they passed a series of resolutions based on the nowhallowed “open campus” principle.
It is no paradox. It is merely hypocrisy: the faculty
apply their pedantic rhetoric when and where they choose;
and generally never to themselves.
It is quite clear that the hoary concepts of “academic
freedom” and “open campus” have not been applied in the
case of the Faculty Senate. The same spokesmen who so
mental principles of an academic community” want to deny
students the right to even speak at Senate meetings.
The Senate functions as a University Senate (Mr. Meyerson even calls it that sometimes), but it is still a faculty
body. Maybe they are heady with newfound power, but that
does not excuse them for stifling debate on crucial issues.
Students are prevented from voting in the Senate by law
(which could be changed with faculty and administration
pressure): we are prevented from speaking in the Senate by
faculty prerogative.

automatically a mediator between the system of
government and the democratic-thinking black citizens he is supposed to serve. For every word I write
in this column I’m a mediator because of my outlook. My views try to show the definite need for
togetherness of blacks and whites. If any black
brother on campus says he is not a mediator, then
he should not even speak to, associate with or
learn from the white man. The way I see it, we
are all mediators between races, beliefs, religion
and thoughts of the system.
I was at a convention at Notre Dame University
in Indiana during the Thanksgiving weekend, sponsored by the National Student Association. It con-

cerned itself with the institutional racism which

is a part of every university in the United States.
I talked to brothers from California to Pennsylvania. In group conferences the brothers exchanged
many ideas and plans for formulating better re-

lationships between the black students in local,
state and national institutions.
The problem that we saw at our private caucus
was a lack of communication, stemming from
problems in levels of awareness and mediation of
ideas with the white and black students at the
conference. A large percentage of the black students didn't want to get together with the white
students to discuss ideas for solving institutional
racism. The others wanted to learn the white
students' ideas for solving the problem. Some
wanted to use the NSA as much as possible. If
a person doesn't want to be a mediator, then he
doesn't want to help with the problems which face
America.
It is hard to play baseball on the football field
We run toward third base with swimming trunks
on with a shotput in our baseball glove.
But today this must be done as we face a new
ball game. There are rules which have to be made
when the time comes to cross the bridge. The
minute we learn a new game we are playing the
mediator and only the mediator has an important
part.
There is a brother on campus who I am sure
we all know: Bruce Brice. He has taken a lot of

leisure time trying ;o mei
tween
and the whites. He gave me a bit of information—which I think is one of the best things a brother
can do on campus. He wants to meet any black
brother in the Haas Lounge any Wednesday between 8 and 9 p.m. This meeting will try to gather
any and all wishes of the people involving strong
or slight mediations among students. Bruce has
treated many problems that face the blacks as his
own personal problems. 1 feel personally responsible to try to do my thing to help the brothers.
I also help myself. I know Bruce feels the same
way. Let’s get our mediation thing together.

credit.
In addition, attention should be directed to the
Faculty Student Association which is in need of revision or replacement by a corporative structure
capable of issuing bonds and in which the student
body should have a much greater voice. Hopefully
such a ne»i structure will eliminate the present pro
blems and restrictions of FSA and be more attentive
to student needs and desires.
Henry M. Buda

Sees tobacco companies plot
To the editor
It has become quite evident to me that the driving force behind the conflict in Vietnam is America’s tobacco companies who are willing to carry
on perpetual war for a profit. The motive becomes
clear upon checking into the not-so-secret plans of
these companies to market marijuana when it becomes legal. (Isn't it now?) The fact that Vietnam
is abundant in our favorite weed makes it a ripe

target for American takeover.
The aim of the tobacco companies, although profit-motivated. is to turn on America. A wonderful
idea, but I ask these potential merchants of marijuana not to bomb and burn some other country.
After all, we wouldn’t want to see Vietnam go
up in smoke. Not before it gets to America!
Curt Miller

Life guard in tunnel?
To the editor.

While swimming through the “Norton Tunnel”
last week, I was taken under by a strong undertow.
As I went down for the third time, I saw the writ
ing on the wall and my entire life passed before my
eyes. Fortunately for me, an alert maintenance man
tossed me a sturdy 2-by-4 and saved my life. After
this traumatic underground experience, I have decided not to use the tunnel again until it dries up
or until a life guard is stationed there.
Wet and not Wild

Correction
The last sentence in the fifth paragraph of the
page-one story (Nov. 22) quoting Mark Rudd should
have read; 'But, not only did we want the University not to be a part of the war effort, we wanted
to fuck up the government's war effort.'

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Editor's note: Although some claim that
Mark Rudd was created by the New
York Times, there is little doubt that he
was a driving force behind the April
1968 uprising at Columbia University,
heard round the world as a call to arms
for students unable to accept the basic
immorality of their institutions. Currently louring campuses around the country,
while charges against him are pending,
Mr. Rudd planted himself in the Conference Theater this past week, armed with
a propoganda film and illuminating radi-

cal rhetoric.

by Dorie Klein
College Editor

Somewhere between Mark Rudd,
the world-famous myth, and Mark
Rudd, the person, is the story of why,
as he puts it, “a white middle-class
kid should rebel.”
His rebellion is by no means unique
or even unusual; a lot of people have
been doing it. His uniqueness is his
publicity, but publicity creates its
own experience and that distinguishes
him from other campus activists.
After making the same speeches on
campuses from Cambridge to California, he is a bit bored with Columbia, but he can talk about the issues
with clarity, if not with enthusiasm.
for more Rudd, see

page

7

“Both issues,” he will say slowly
and deliberately, “the issue of the
gym in Momingside Park and of the
Institute for Defense Analysis, were
symbolic ones. They represented the
worst manifestations of capitalism—racism and imperialism. The gym
showed how a white institution exploits the black community by, without consulting them, building a private facility in a public park, then
giving them a small share as a paternalistic gesture.
“IDA was even more symbolic,
since the actual work done for it at
Columbia was insignificant. Columbia’s job was to sponsor it; in that
way the university was supporting
the Vietnam war. To be more specific, IDA does weapons research for
the Pentagon. But, not only did we
want the university not to be a part
of the war effort, we wanted to
up the government’s war effort.”
The students did not take a stand
on the gym and IDA or on the role
of the university. They stood on racisni'afid imperialism, the latter manifested by Vietnam and the former by
Columbia in Harlem. The aim was
not to change the university, but to
take a step toward destroying it as
it now is, a part of the capitalist
system.

Why the rebellion?
The question is
why should the
students take a stand at all? Mark
—

explained;

“They have felt a lack of meaning

failed. In fact, the petitioners ■ had
been disciplined by the administration of Grayson Kirk.
Leaving the ufiiversity
Partly in response to his own necessary departure from the university,
partly in response to the dynamics
of the situation and his own conclusions, Mark is no longer interested
in changing the university
even if
it were feasible
or in using it as a
base to move out.
“No one at Columbia is in the least
concerned with Student Power,” he
asserts. “No one is interested in restructuring the university.” He uses
the example of the record-poor turnout for elections for the restructuring
committee
300 odd, voting in i a
majority of students in favor of radical change proposed by the Students
for a Restructured University
to
prove his point.
“A lot of kids picked up on the issues despite the mass media stuff
about changing the university and a
lot learned to take militant action,
despite there being so much distorted
news about *it.” He is unwilling to
put down confrontation for its own
sake and thinks it hiay be beneficial
even without a specific purpose.
What Mark especially rejects in
mass media coverage is the issue of
“Student Power” which he totally
rejects. He" asserts that it is a smokescreen raised to cover the real issues
and the media’s attempt to hold up
a barrier between students and other
groups, such as ghetto blacks and
white working people.

in their lives, that they can’t affect
policies. Students are beginning to
ask themselves why they are going
through four years to be sent out into
a slot in a corporation where they
will still have no control over their
own lives.
“They can identify with the oppressed blacks and Vietnamese and
recognize that they all have the same
the
enemy. A small class of people
are responsible for the
ruling elite
lack of meaning in their lives, oppression of blacks and Vietnamese,
“Literally, the people who run Columbia are those people. They are
slumlords and members of the ruling
class. Their interest is to maintain
that class, by exploiting working people and super-exploiting blacks and
that’s called
by exploiting abroad
imperialism.
“In the university, the basic function is to produce us. We’re the products, and to do what the university
must be sort of a white middle-class
ghetto, sheltered from the black
ghetto.”
There have been other manifesta-

Columbia's significance
“When students fight realistically,
others will Join them.” An alliance
between workers and students is the
prerequisite for revolution, and did
happen last spring in France. Workers in the U.S., Mark explained,
“don’t have the same class consciousness and students haven’t
the
same analysis. American labor history
is probably as radical as France’s,
but trade unions have not kept up
even a rhetoric of consciousness. The
leadership has been bought 6ut by
the ruling class.”
Columbia’s significant* was that it
did reach ghetto blacks, and the community responded with support
food, demonstrations and a rent
strike. And for the first time students
had rallied around issues related to (
the outside. The students’ vision is

smoking grass, freer sex and different
clothes. Mark admits these things
into “the movement for personal liberation,” but emphasizes the real
necessity of people “joining together
to fight.”
“Fight” rather than work through
the electoral system because “the ruling class is not going to give up so
easily.” The tactics used at Columbia
were necessary to stop construction
of the gym after legal petitioning had

of a utopian society: Elimination of
the drudgery of most labor and elimination of oppression by the ruling
class.
“The war has given an impetus
to the movement. Students all over
the world understand that the U.S.
is the aggressor and understands that
they as a group cannot be free in a
world where people are being exploited.” Or—the world cannot exist
nine-tenths slave and one-tenth free.

LONDON
The Soviet Union, pushing a diplomatic East-West
peace offensive, was understood to be counseling moderation on
Hanoi’s Vietnam peace strategy.
Diplomatic sources said Moscow wants the Paris talks to lead

Polity acts on academic reform
The Student Polity Wednesday passed a set of resolutions concerning academic reforms at this University. Three
of the foilr resolutions dealt with amendments to the proposals on which the Faculty Senate will vote Dec. 5.
The fourth resolution calling for complete support of
the amended proposals read;
“Be it further resolved
that given these additions the
Polity endorse" the report of
the Senate Committee on
Educational Planning and
Policy.

ture—at best a modest and rea
sonable gain, something only min
imal and sane.”

He questioned the ambiguity of
the proposals, indicating that if
the faculty reacts to the changes
by “beefing up” present courses,
this would be arbitrary to the rationale for implementing the
changes, stated as “to lessen the
load on students and to increase
flexibility.”

“Also, we strongly urge the
Faculty Senate to adopt the Committee Report with these additions.”
Claude E. Welch, Dean of University College commented on
the actions of the Polity:
“I am delighted that the Polity
supported the report of the Committee. I applaud their concern
as suggested by the three separate resolutions. I am pleased for
their having undertaken this aca-

demic debate.”

“Most important,” Dean Welch

continued, “is what will take
place after the Faculty debate.
If the resolutions are passed, I
feel it will be incumbent that all
faculty and students work together in the re-examining and restructuring that must be carried
out.”

Special report
Student Association President
Richard Schwab delivered a special report to the Polity in which
he stated his views on the pending changes. He termed the proposals a “compromise within the
Faculty Senate executive strue-

He further emphasized the need
for student involvement in the
process of academic changes: “Unless students show an active interest in this reformulation process, we may end with a system
that is more rigid than the one
we presently face.”
The first resolution voted by

the Polity dealt with an addition

to the first set of proposals to be
presented to the Faculty Senate:
“Be it further resolved that, in
the rethinking and recombination
of course work necessitated by
the adoption of a four course
load, students be included on the
curiculum committees of each
department and faculty for the
period of the reformulation and
thereafter, in equal numbers and
with equal privileges that their
input is significant and that these
committees be constituted by February 1969;

Grading revision
The
cerned
report
in the

second resolution conamending the Committee
proposal on the changes
grading system. In principle, the resolution questioned
whether students would want to
take the 32 courses (eight semes
ter courses) outside the main area
of concentration, as proposed,
and whether that section of the
resolution should possibly be
dropped. The proposal, which is
to replace the appropriate sections of the committee proposal,

will

“Be it resolved that alternate
methods of grading be established
to include the most general, as
well as the most specific methods;
“Be it further resolved that the
use of these alternative methods
shall be determined by each student in each course at any time;
“Be it further resolved that
sutdents may request changes in
grading methods in a given
course from the most specific to
the most general, and
“Be it further resolved that
each undergraduate student be allowed to take full advantage of
the grading alternatives.” .
The third resolution dealt with
student participation in a process
of the changes:
“Be it resolved that provosts
be instructed to insure student
participation in their respective
faculties and that the provost’s
reports on the process of implementation include a progress report on student participation in
the implementing process."
Following the Polity meeting.
Mr. Schwab commented on the approved resolution: “The proposals
of the Faculty Senate are mini
mizing whereas our proposals are
more on the side of what an ideal
university should be. I hope that
this will have a more liberalizing
influence on the Faculty Senate."

The Spccri^u"*

�between the lines
by Robert P. Sawicki
Nigeria/Biafra flagrantly displays the
lack of political ideals in our government.
Like the Saigon regime, which has suspended publication of about IS publications in the last couple of weeks for
printing articles not in keeping with the
anti-communist feeling of the country, Nigeria has recently expelled a CBC reporter, a CBC television crew, a CBS crew
and a free-lance writer.
One would think that in keeping with
our idea of freedom and democracy (Saigon-style), our government would jump
headfirst onto the Nigerian bandwagon.
As for those Russian commies, you know,
the ones that are always hard at work
stirring up revolution, one would think
that for sure they have some dealing and
blossoming trade agreements with the
revolutionary Biafrans.
Ah, but with the same unpredictability
of a woman in a clothing shop, power
politics knows no rules and has no ideals.
The Soviet Union and Nigeria have signed
a long-term technical aid agreement, part
of which includes proposals for the establishment of a $120 million iron and
steel complex. Of course, Ted Kennedy
has urged that the United States seriously
consider aiding Biafra, With the specific
inference towards the mass starvation of
Biafrans, and perhaps, with the underlying motive of oil, which also is in Biafra.

NEW YORK IUPII —The president of Cornell University and members of the student body were sharply reprimanded by
the U.S. Court of Appeals which said they
had made “shocking and improper” attempts to pressure the court into freeing
on bail a student convicted of tearing up
his draft card.
The action involved Bruce D. Oancis,
20, a student on leave from the University, who was convicted last September
in Syracuse for returning his torn-up draft
card to his draft board. He was sentenced
Nov. 14 .under the Federal Youth Correction Act to serve up to six years and
was remanded to the Jamesville Prison in
Onondaga County. Under the act he could
be released at any time by a federal parole
board.

The blow-up came when Faith A. Seidenberg of Syracuse, representing Dancis,
appeared before the court seeking bail
pending appeal. The court released the

President-elect
Richard M. Nixon pledged during his election campaign he would give high priority
to the search for a stable peace in the
Middle East.
Since his election, he has taken several
steps on four fronts to prepare for what
sources close to Nixon described today as
likely “new initiatives” in the Mideast
after he takes office in January.
Nixon is said to be preparing for early
discussions on the Mideast with the Soviet
Union, Israel, Arab “moderates’ and with
the United Arab Republic,
Nixon is believed to be considering
taking the initiative to restore U.S. relations with the U.A-R. which broke diplomatic ties with the United States during
the Arab-Israeli war of 1967.
The importance that Nixon attached to
the Mideast was underscored in his mes—

Mrs. Seidenberg presented a petition
signed by 5000 Cornell students and a

At that point Judge Robert P. Anderson

Informed sources said most of the emphasis of Nixon’s Mideast policy will be
on closer ties with Arab “moderates.”
Newsweek magazine reported that Israeli Premier Levi Eshkol “hopes to visit
Washington next month to say goodbye
to President Johnson and to size up just
how far President-elect Nixon plans to go
with his campaign declaration that Israel
should have absolute weapons superiority
over Arab states for the sake of Mideast

Both Nixon and Democratic presidential

during the campaign the United States

�SDS to protest recruiting
Today at 9 a m. Students for a

a demonstration at Hayes Annex
C—the placement office—where
General Dynamics Corporation is
holding recruitment interviews.
Monday the Dow Chemical Corporation will be on campus to recruit students. No specitic plans
have yet been made by the SDS
for any action that day.

In accord with their policy of
an “open campus” declared in a
resolution presented at Wednesday’s polity meeting, the group
invited General Dynamics to participate in an open forum to be
held prior to today. Since they
received no ahswer to the invitation, SDS is protesting tt)e company’s participation* in the Vietnam war.

In an attempt to “maintain the
spirit of an open campus” SDg
planned to sponsor ail education-

issue of on-dampus recruiting,
aimed at airihg all matters involving the military establish'

to participate in a forum aimed

forums will be held as originally
planned. Yesterday the first forum was held, involving short introductory statements by the Re-

search and Action Committee of
SDS on the activities of General
Dynamics and Dow, followed by a
question and answer session.

Forums for Bell Aerosystems
and Cornell Labs are scheduled
for Dec. 8 and Dec. 11, respectively.
Believing that “our campus is
not an ivory tower , . . but a
creation of society . . . responsible to that larger society,” SDS
issued a statement that “The presence of Defense Department research, ROTC cadets, corporate
and military recruiters here in-

dicate that this campus is committed to the ideology, structure
and status quo of the larger so-

ciety.”
“Corporations use the university to recruit, not to teach. These
recruiting activities are done solely, to further the goals of the

company. Their

activities have

nothing to do with academic freedom.”

“Francis Albert Sinatra
Does His Thing”

Amherst campus will
house Clinical Center
“With the help of affiliated
hospitals we can lead the nation
in teaching and research facilities
and in the delivery of patient
care,” said Peter Regan, executive
vice president, commenting on a
new multi-mililon dollar Health
Sciences Clinical Center.
The center is scheduled for construction on the Amherst campus.
The result of long months of
study by administrators, notably
Dean Leroy A. Pesch of the Medical School, it will be a radical
innovation in the field of medicine and medical care.
The facility, called a Clinical
Center will differ in many ways
from the traditional University
teaching hospital. “First,” Dr.
Regan explained, “we have tried
to eliminate duplication of other
Buffalo hospitals. For instance,
we expect to have fewer beds.
Our intent is to provide better
care for the patient by functioning as a complementary resource
with our affiliated hospitals.
“Second, a ‘patient-care distribution system’ will divide the cen-

The center is structured to provide an intensity of treatment in
proportion to the stage of the
illness, so that maximum medical
resources are utilized at all times.

Third prong
A third prong is research. Dr.
Regan expects a wealth of practical knowledge in better, speedier, more efficient and more ef-

fective methods to arise out of

operations at* the Center. “This
is an important point. What is

neded is not money. Those in the
medical profession are working
as hard as they can. Pumping
money in will simply result in a
redistribution of care among the
rich and the poor. We need and
are pursuing more efficient ways
of using these facilities.
“Most important of all, the Center is a system of clinical patient
care designed to teach students
to be more creative and imaginative in dealing with the prob-

lems now and of the future. In

it,” Dr. Regan continued, “teachers and students will be able to
labor side by side in a model
setting, to learn together as they
work together. This is our root
aim in creating a Clinical Center,
and Dean Pesch has done a superb job.”

“One of our country’s most serious problems is the misapportionment of medical care,” he

Position of negotiating agent
sought by professors’ council
The State University of New York Council of the American Association of University Professors has voted to seek
the position of negotiating agent for faculty in labor disputes
as provided under the Taylor Law.
The Taylor Law, passed
April 21, 1967 and operative
since Sept. 1 of that year,
deals with public employees
and labor relations. The bill
was a result of the work of a
committee appointed by Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller in January 1966 and headed by
George W. Taylor, a member
of the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania.

new degree programs and major
changes in curricula to the Faculty of University College and shall

consultation with the appropriate

This committee was charged
with research towards fair and
realistic public employee legislation. Following the recommendations in their report of spring
1966, the state legislature began
the legislative process which resulted in the bill’s passage.
The law repealed section

108

of the Civil Service Law, commonly known as the CondinWadlin Act which had provided
that public employees would automatically be dismissed from their
jobs if they struck. Under the
new law, strikes by public employees are still prohibited. Now
a strike penalty can be meted
out only after a court hearing.
In addition, the employee organization, not the employees
themselves, is now liable to punishment. Under the new law a
State Public Employment Relations Board has been set up to
ensure fairness and equity between the public employee bargaining organizations and the
state or municipal governments,
as provided for in a charter of
rights of public employees, also

included in the bill.

University of New York
Senate have applied for the position of bargaining agent as well
as the American Association of
University Professors.
State

AAUP position
Following their Nov. 9 meeting,
at which they decided to try for

the post, the American Association of University Professors
made public the following views.
The AAUP feels that they are
best qualified to represent the
needs of the State University of
New York faculty. This stems
from their belief that the Civil
Service Employees Association
and the American Federation of
Teachers would not be sufficiently sensitive to the issues of
academic freedom and university
government.
The AAUP also contends that
the State University Senate, since
it contains high-ranking administrative personnel, would lead directly to numerous

The position of negotiating
agent for the State University of
New York is to be decided by an
election to be held in spring 1969.
The election must be held since

of Teachers, and the statewide

pertinent to the student body. THe name ol the individual originating the inquiry is
kept confidential under all circumstances.

Make* a note of the number :

831-5000 for Action Line.

Q.: What happened to the spring SCATE? Why wasn't it published
before preliminary registration?
A.: According to Harry Klein, Academic Affairs Coordinator of
the Student Association, the spring SCATE was scheduled to come out
in October or early November, Just prior to the time when the forms
were to be put through IBM, the machine broke down and delayed its
printing for over a month. Because of this delay, the sale and value
of the SCATE was hurt considerably. The SCATE came out the week
of Nov. 4 and is now being sold tor $.75 in the main lobby of Norton
Hall or in room 205.

Q.: Why can't students, on meal contracts, have the option of
eating in a cafeteria other than the one they are assigned?
A.: Raymond Becker, Director of Food Service, informed us
that at the beginning of the semester students with meal contracts
are assigned to specific cafeterias, byt at the end of the first week
they are given the option of choosing the cafeteria within the residence hall compound at which they desire a permanent assignment.
All cafeterias are operating at capacity, and there has to be a constant assignment to assure an efficient operation.

Q.: On Aug. 22, I returned a Schaeffer pen point to the Bookstore
for repair or replacement. In spite of repeated contacts, I am still
waiting for the :pen point Why the delay?
A.: Mrs. L. Hopps, Supplies Supervisor at the Bookstore, explained
that the pen points were returned for service to the factory inasmuch
as they are under a faetpry guarantee. She has written repeatedly to
the factory who; finally advised her that replacement pens had been
mailed out, but apparently to the.wrong address. They '‘rectified" the
error by mailiqg duplicate replacements, but again to the wrong
address. She is continuing correspondence and is hopeful the company
will follow her instructions and note the correct Bookstore address.
Her last letter to them was mailed on Nov. 11. She informed us that
all students concerned had been notified of this mix-up; in fact, each
has been given a Xerox copy of her correspondence. She, hopes the
students wjill continue to be patient. If you have not had this running
commentary from her, get in touch with Mrs. Hopps directly.
Q.: Who ettablishes the standards for admission to the State
University of Buffalo? Are thfc admissions standards the same for all
units of the State University of New York?

A.: Even though all four-year units, of the State University of New
York utilize a common application and require that all applicants take
the Regents Scholarship Examination, each institution establishes its
own qualitative entrance requirements and makes its own admissions
decisions. At Buffalo, the Faculty Committee of University College
establishes the policy which is implemented by the Office of Admissions and Records. Since each unit establishes its own policy, the
qualifications necessary for acceptance vary considerably between
units.
Q.: Students have worn a path from the bus stop on Main St. to
Crosbyi Is there airy possibility of having this area paved?
A.: Paving of this path was completed this past weekend. We
would like to take credit for this, but actually this was requested last
year and finally approved three weeks ago, at which time the contract
was let.
Q.: If you drop

a

course and that puts you below full-time status,

i.e„ fewer than 12 credit hours, will it effect your Regents Scholar-

ship?
A.: Generally speaking, yes, because one must be a full-time student to reap the benefits of the Regents Scholarship. Actually, however, the decision depends upon the date you drop your course and
the date you receive the Student Award Notice from Albany. To safeguard your benefits, it is advisable to check with Miss June Rogers of
the Office of Admissions and Records to clarify your status and eligibility for the Regents Scholarship before you decide to drop below
full time student status.
Q.; Can you drop a course at any lime during the semester?

A : Yes, a course may be dropped at any time up to and including
the last officially scheduled day of class instruction. For this semester,
the last day is Dec. 21, 1968. If one drops a course during the first
six weeks of class, a designation of “R" is made on the final ‘grade
card. After the sixth full week beyond the first day on which classes
are officially scheduled, however, students who withdraw receive a
grade of WF or WP, given at the discretion of the instructor. Students considering a course change or, a course drop- should always consult their advisor before doing so.
Q.; It there a Child Care Program at the University?
is eligible?

If so, who

A.: The University sponsors a pre-school'nursery program, “State
Children's Cooperative Group.” which is operated under

University

St. and its registration is open to anyone in the community. Threeyear-olds attend from 9 a m. to 11:30 a.m. and four-year-olds from 1
pm. to 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Children can attend on a
two-day, three-day, or five-day-a-week basis. The five-day program
costs $90.00 a semester, and lesser charges are pro-rated for the parttime programs. This facility can accommodate only a limited number
of children A great need exists for such service and at the present
time the Community Welfare Council of Buffalo is exploring the possibility of another day care center in this area.

Grad students ‘unhappy’ with
new English Dept, resolutions
by Sarah de Laurentis
Spectrum Staff Reporter

The English Department last
week passed a number of resolutions concerning graduate and
undergraduate student representation in the various decisionmaking bodies of the department.

Dr. Marcus Klein, head of the
English department, discussed the
substance of the proposals
adopted at the meeting:
The faculty invited three
graduate students to participate
on the Graduate Curriculum Committee with full voting privileges.
The department invited one
graduate and one undergraduate
English major to participate in
(he work of the Executive Committee with full voting privileges.
The department invited five
graduate and five undergraduate
English majors to participate in
meetings of the department as a
whole with full voting privileges
except where prohibited by University by-laws.
The faculty invited all grad•

•

•

uate students except the five invested with voting rights and all

undergraduate English majors except the five invested with voting
rights to patricipate as observers in department meetings as a

whole.
The department voted that
student voting members and observers will be barred from department discussions and votes
regarding the appointments to
the leaching staff.
Carl Murphy, president of the
Association of Graduate English
Students, commented that there
is a “great deal of turmoil in the
•

English Department.
“People,” he said, “are confused and unhappy.”
At a Nov. 14 meeting of AGES
a resolution was passed that “all
departmental power be held by
students and faculty equally.”
Mr. Murphy therefore termed the
results of the English Department
meeting unsatisfactory.
He explained that student representatives should be placed on
all departmental committees in-

CHARLIE'S
TONSORIAL CENTER

“This would also give more
representation to the undergrad
uate English majors since there
are only approximately 180 grad-

uate students out of the 750 in
the department.”

stead of only the Curriculum and
Executive Committees. These
include a Freshman Committee,
Junior Faculty Recruitment Cornmi tee, Senior Faculty Recruitment Committee and Admissions
Committee. These representatives
should also have more than one
vote,*-he suggested.
Mr, Murphy said there should
be an equal number of students
with voting privileges in departmental meetings as there are faculty members, in accordance with
the proposal passed by AGES.
This would involve 75 people.
“There are approximately 750
graduate and undergraduate English students. If, in some way, the
students could select one representative for every ten students,
there would be an equal number
of students as there are faculty
members,” Mr. Murphy explained.

The informal discussion is open to all interested

-

Mark Rudd, one of the most involved and heavily publicized SDS members in last spring’s uprising at Columbia
University, spoke in the Conference Theater Sunday night
and showed a documentary film on the Events of that April.
He introduced the film as
a feature newsreel that was
“frankly biased” and “absolutely true.” In it were shots
of Columbia and Morningside

Heights, juxtaposed against
the voice of Grayson Kirk
and Harlem residents.
One watched police line the
streets outside commencement

while inside, academicians dreamed of the sanctity of the ivory
tower. Black-robed dignitaries
filed into the building where
weeks before heads had been
busted by billyclubs and kids had
been dragged down steps.
Mr. Rudd spoke afterward
about the issues at Columbia:
The specifics of the gym and Institute for Defense Analysis and
the real issues of racism and
imperialism.

-

“The students said ‘no’ to be-

ing turned out as. products for
the system. They joined together
not only to liberate themselves
personally, but to fight.”

He

drew

the distinction be-

tween their radicalism and (Eugene) McCarthy liberalism with
the latter being the benevolence
of persons wishing,to help others,
and the former being people fighting for their own rights as well.
The students did not fight to
change the administration
they
knew it wasn’t going to change
but to stand up against the sys—

When asked about programs for
after the revolution, Mr. Rudd
talked about a general vision for
liberation around the world followed by socialism. The struggle
is for control at the moment, and
he replied to a charge of being
negative
“What are you for?”
—by explaining that to be against
racism and imperialism is a positive thing in itself.

University and revolution

H6HU

The debate about whether to

usd the university as a base for

revolution occupied the remaining minutes. Mr. Rudd rejected
the idea of a scholarly radicalism
within the university ?nd drew
a line from Columbia to street
fighting outside—Chicago, for instance. “Socialism wouldn’t work
in one country (Soviet Union),”
he argued. “What makes you
think it will work on one cam-

pus?”

The important thing is to fight
and amass people to fight. The
drawback in the student movement, Mr. Rudd admitted to a
question, is the present failure
of the h{ew Left to provide alternative occupations and values
to those .wishing .to drop out of
the system, yet unwilllhg to lose
their chance for a career because
there is 'do other choice.

but as a fact.”

Miss Price has compiled a list
of responses from students and

New Student Affairs Coordinator Nancy Coleman spoke in favor
of the resolution saying: “If recruiters are going to come and
solicit students, they have an obligation to inform them what
they’re doing and what they are
being solicited for.”

Speed Powrie, an undergraduate
student and member of SDS made
the following proposal;
“In sympathy with the open

the Polity, be it resolved that the
Polity support the demonstration
Friday, Nov. 22 at 9 a.m. in front

“We also ask that once the
open campus resolution becomes

Meyerson and the Faculty Senate
to enforce these guidelines.”
Mr. Powrie’s resolution carried
by a large margin.
Student Services

Coordinator
Barbara Emilson commented on
the recent drive to raise money
to aid Nigeria and Biafra through
UNICEF:
“The drive lasted from Nov. 4
until Nov. 8,” said Miss Emilson.
“Over 1700 students waived their
meals in the dorms and $1000 was
collected at a table in Norton
Hall. This indicates the student
body is concerned and aware of
what’s happening in Biafra.
“Some people would like to do
more to educate people about
events in Nigeria and Biafra,” she
continued. “Anyone interested
may contact me in the Student
Association office.”
Her resolution endorsing the
fund-raising drive and allocating
$15 to cover advertising expenses
for the recent drive was passed
by the Polity.

Association to “provide those interested in the alternative of
Canadian immigration with information regarding that alternative.
Be it mandated that the Student
Association purchase for the
aformentioned purpose, copies of
the “Manual for Draft Age Immigration to Canada."
Chuck Anderson of the Toronto
Anti-Draft program spoke in favor of the proposal.
“The manual is not seditious,"
he said. “It gives information on
a matter unclear to government
and to individuals.
An amendment was added to
have the Student Association purchase 200 copies of the manual
at $2.50 per copy.
The amended resoltuion carried
55 to 24.

Brutality scored
The Polity then adopted a
second resolution which noted the
lack of action by Buffalo officials
on the alleged charges of police
brutality at the Sixth Precinct
Oct. 16. It called for local authorities to “immediately reopen
their investigation of the incident,” and that “if necessary, the
state Attorney General begin an
official investigation of the
charges."
Copies are to be sent to Governor Rockefeller, Attorney General

Louis Lefkowitz and several local
officials.
Bruce Roberts, Polity member,
proposed that the Student Association show support for a Czech
student demonstration in Prague
by sending the following telegram:

‘■We the Students of State Uni
versity at Buffalo would like to
register our sympathy and full
support for your efforts towards
maintaining the freedom of the
Czech people.”
Bruce Brice proposed that a
course called “Methods and Techniques of Handling Children in
Conflict” be suspended until justification and need can be shown.
The resolution was tabled until
the next Polity meeting.

Memoirs Other Stories, Tfte Viking 'Press, ’68.
In this age of the anti-novel, the anti-story and the antibook, Saul Bellow makes one think that perhaps there is
something worth saving after all. While many of this decade’s best writers are abandoning traditional form and subject for the experimental, he just keeps evolving fiction that
is more than fit to stand with the best American literature.

Saul (follow, Meshy’s

&amp;

The six stories in Meshy's
Memoirs etc.
all published
previously in magazines
are characteristic in that they
show the consistency of quality and imagination, the junior and compassion, the curious Lawrence-Joycean perspective that highlights Bellow’s style.
—

—

His characters inhabit a world
just this side of chaos, a situation
which enables Bellow to reveal
all men in their tragicomic,

egotistic, woeful, yet heroic struggle.
There are so many; Clarence,
haunted by the Vision of America’s bomb and pollution searches
for a Spaniard's lost love poems,
only to find that the manuscripts
be seeks are really shares of
uranium mining stock and that
his contacts have judged him
accordingly; Hattie, slowly losing

to the booze-brittled bones of old
age and the desert heat; Lustgarten,

risking

his

money for a fortune

Germany.

a begrudging last visit and then
with the 20 grand his cahcerboth of them embracing tearfully,
the money swept aside, as she
dies; Rogin, who encounters the
vision of his disappointing sonto-be in the subway and blames
his wife. There are so many, yet
each is unique.
Bellow has the uncanny genius
and getting
of demanding
compassion for his characters,
perhaps because the reader is surprised when something achingly
familiar is revealed in a person
just different enough to require
an effort to understand.

In the two newest pieces, two

threaten to sterilize human relations in the modern world.

Abyss mind
Dr. Mosby, once a clever statesman and witty professor, uses an
old friend’s often-tragic life to
liven up the personal memoirs
he is writing in Mexico. His idealistic friend, Lustgarten, had

moved from one horrendous
failure to the next, including a
“VIP” tour of Yugoslavia which
turned out to be labor on a
chain gang.
“He was a funny man,” Mosby
concludes, “his timing was off.”
But Mosby’s cold eye turns in an

setting which all-too-aptly reflects
the abyss of his own mind.
Dr. Braun, a bio-chemist, sifts
through the drama of his Jewish
family to find some molecular
language of understanding, but
after all his efforts, can only exclaim: “Oh these Jews—these
Jews! Their feelings, their

with his emotions, for objectivity
requires someone who is not human. In any attempt to judge or

is failure, but as a wise man once

�Town Crier: unique
newspaper venture
vira'.e” of eight prime movers and
has no formal structuring.

by Alfred Dragone
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Newspaper experience

Buffalo has a new newspaper.
Well—almost.
The now-you-see-it, now-youdon’t Town Crier, after a spate of
technical problems, .topes to make
its debut on news-stands this
month.
The Town Crier is a unique
venture indeed. It is the first
serious attempt in years to challenge the 42-year monopoly held
by the two major commercial
newspapers in Buffalo.
It will be a community paper,

that
Mr. McClean indicated
eventually departments, staffs
and editors will be chosen. The
basic democratic structure of the
paper will not be impaired in the
process, he stressed.
Both Mr. McLean and Mr. Monkash have had considerable newspaper experience. Mr. McClean
was formerly associated with the
Los Angeles Free Press. Mr,
Monkash was instrumental in establishing a newspaper at Columbia University.
The organizers of the Town
Crier have recognized the need
for a practical financial approach
and do not intend to permit their
ideals to be innundated by financial troubles.
Although the editors will receive no pay, the Town Crier does
intend to show a profit. This
profit will be reinvested into the

the conventional media; blacks,

introduce the healthier aspects of the famed ‘'California
life style” to Buffalo.
This is undoubtedly the most
ambitious program in journalism
since Humphrey Bogart and Ethel
Barrymore tried to clean up Big
Town in “Deadline, U.S.A.”
The Town Crier is the issue of
verbal relations primarily between Robert Cohen, a University
philosophy instructor, his wife
Jane and students Jeff Monkash,
Dan McClean and Don Zinman.
This summer they decided that
culturally bereft Buffalo needed

According to Mr. Zinman, each
member of the staff was asked to
contribute $5.00 to inaugurate
this operation.
With this money, 10,000 letters
soliciting funds were mailed out.
Among the recipients were most
of the State University of Buffalo
faculty and most registered Liberals in Erie County. To date,
approximately $30.00 has been
gleaned from these sources.

Fi ilm review

Coming from a long line of
religious dissenters, abolitionists
and independent thinkers, Pete
Seeger’s credo is a song of freedom for man. His uncle, Alan
Seeger, was the poet who wrote
the famous and prophetic “I Have
A Rendezvcus With Death,’ shortly before be.ng killed on a World
War I battlefield.

Charles Seeger, a musicologist
now in the Department of Ethnomusicology at the University of
California at Los Angeles.
In 1935 his father took him to
a North Carolina square dance
and folk balad festival. Here he
first heard and fell in love with
the long-necked five-string which
now is almost his trademark, and
which some say even bears a resemblance to his lean six-foot-one
Yankee frame.
Pete Seeger left Harvard in
1938 in his sophomore year, and
tried his hand at art, journalism
and traveling. Since leaving
school this troubador has been
traveling ever since—roaming the
world, collecting the folk songs
of the thousands of miles of lands
he’s seen.

For his stand Seeger was cited
for Contempt of Congress and
sentenced to one year in jail,
but the US. District Court of
Appeals set aside the lower court

Seeger’s stand, but stemmed from
incorrect procedures in the committee hearings.

and expansive life in Russia during the Napoleonic era.
I

Part one, which runs for
three and a quarter hours,
shows the disruptive’ effects
of France’s early battle
against Russia and Austria
upon two generations of Russians. The main characters in
Pierre,
“War and Peace”
Andrei and Natasha, mem
bers of the younger generation
are effected by the
historical events and the pompous Russian aristocracy to
which they belong.
—

—

Pierre, played by Director Bondarchuk, is the central figure. His
intelligence is often shaded by his
shy and awkward nature. When
Pierre inherits the estate of his
father, Count Kirill Bezhov, he becomes one of the wealthiest men
in Russia. However, his err'tic
nature makes him repulsive to
members of the aristocracy and
prey to anyone wanting to take
advantage of him.

The battle of AusterHtz is the
major epic scene. It is described
in the narrative as, “awful, but
i wonderful”—glorious. The sol-,

diers’ views of death the disor-

ganization caused by the inefficient aristocratic leadership, and
masterful acting by Boris Zahova
portraying the brilliant b'ut weary
General Kutuzov, add unique insight to the remarkably vivid battle in which the combined forces
of Austria and Russia were de-

feated.
Auslerlitz is the cause of great
hardship in the life of Andrei. His
sense of duly is sheltered by an
ill-fated charge he lead* against
the enemy; it tears him from his

wife Lisa.

Unsuccessful dubbing
The role of Natasha is very
successful as it catches the growth
of a child into the turbulent adult
world of Russia during the period
of unsettled peace between Auslerlitz (1806) and the seige of Russia (1812). Toward .the end, part
one shows this free and lively
person defeated by »the evil segment of society and condemned
by the unyielding morality of the
aristocracy.

‘War and Peace” is a film of
great scenic beauty. The settings
are lavish and the photography
of the battles, a fox hunt and a
toboggan ride are elating. The
narration is comprised of quotes

from the book wlidch clarified
much of the involved plot and

historical events.

The monumental effort to dub
the picture does not succeed. It
detracts seriously from the artistic quality of the Soviet acting.
Despite this flaw, the actors superbly express the intrinsic Russian’ spirit in Tolstoy's master1

piece.

Boston University coach
Warren Schmakel, in his
sixth season at Boston, started off this season with a
nucleus of 26 lettermen. However, Boston’s casualty list
for the season sounds like
that of the Buffalo Bills. So
far this season Boston has
lost one split end, one middle
guard, two linebackers, one
left halfback and punter, one
cornerback, a place kicker
and three quarterbacks. In
addition, two senior lettermen gave up football while
one senior guard was fired.
Despite these “circumstances,” the Terriers have
seldom had it so good.

Coach Serfustini: Versatile

by Alan

Spectrum Staff Reporter

Success and Serfustini go hand in hand
Coach Serfustini can point with pride at his accomplishments at the State University of Buffalo. Serfustini’s basketball teams have compiled a 181-84 won-lost record during the
12-year tenure at Buffalo. His golf teams have done even
better. Under Serf, the Golfers are 91-29-5 with 30 consecutive victories from 1961-1964.

are not restricted to won-lost
records, however. For the

Buffalo fans will long remember the fine play of all these seniors, especially the toe of Bob
Embow, the • receiving of Drankowski and Ashley, the defensive
play of Sabo, Murphy and Richner, the center snaps of Wesolowski. However, this season Mason
and Rutkowski will stick in our
minds. Mason, after backing up
Mick Murtha for two seasons,
came in and in nine games has attempted 140 passes, completed 80
for 961 yards and five TDs.

The Serf, a native Buffalonian,

was All-High in basketball and
baseball in his high school days.
After graduation from Buffalo's
Hutch-Tech High, Dr. Serfustini
attended the University of Buf-

falo. At Buffalo he lettered in
three sports
football, basketball and tennis. After receiving
his Bachelor of Education degree,
he became a graduate assistant
coach for the varsity basketball
team. In 1951 Serfustini moved to
Troy, N. Y. where he served as
assistant football coach, varsity
basketball coach, varsity tennis
coach and an assistant professor
in the Health, Physical Education
and Recreation Department. During his five-year stay at Troy, his
basketball teams compiled an impressive won 70 lost 30 mark.
—

Catalyst of success
for U.B. basketball

Dr. Serfustini became head basketball and golf coach and an associate professor at the State University of Buffalo in 1956 after
completing his doctoral work here.
His basketball team met with immediate success in 1957-58 when
Buffalo went all the way to the
quarter-finals in the NCAA college division post-season tournament. For his efforts in bringing
the State University of Buffalo
basketball fortunes into the a.'ea
spotlight, Dr. Serfustini received
an award from the Buffalo Chamber of Commerce.
From* the standpoint of seasonal
won-lost records, the 1964-65 varsity basketball team must be
labeled as the most successful in
Serfustini’s career. The Bulls compiled a 19-3 record that season,
including victories over Niagara
and Syracuse. Buffalo received another invitation for play in the
NCAA college division post season
tournament, the sixth time Serfustini’s teams had been so honored.

What does a coach with an
overall coaching record of 341
wins and 143 losses consider his
greatest accomplishment? 'That's
easy,” Serfustini noted. “I would
say improving our schedule to the
university division with the limited facilities for athletics we’ve
possessed. We've made our mark
in the college division, having
competed in several NCAA college division post-season tournaments. Our advancement in basketball has been such as to finally
achieve recognition and ranking
in the university division.”
The future? “I can envision for
a school with size,
stature and academic and athletic
excellence. The Amherst school
will have adequate facilities for
a total program of health, physical education and recreation.
These facilities will guarantee an
outstanding basic instructional
program. We’ll possess an extensive intramural program,
reaching every student on campus with facilities available for
all students, faculty and staff.
1 look forward to a continuance of
health, physical education and
recreation program and an intercollegiate athletic program that
is extensive in the number of
activities involved while being
highly representative of universities throughout the nation.”

Walking down a quiet deserted street in Athens, Demitri

he knows are watching him.

Suddenly a blood-curdling
scream from a dying countryman rings down that corridor
of death and shocks Demitri
into renewed awareness of
who he is and where he lives.

when they sentenced him to
death?” asks Demitri. Constantinos thinks for a moment and
then responds: “I tried to kill the
Premier to free my country from
tyranny and I am ready to pay
the price.”

In a voice which is totally devoid of human emotion, Demitri
begins to talk to himself: “I,
Demitri, live in what was once
called Greece, ‘the cradle of democracy.’

Constantinos pauses for a moment and then continues: “I ask
no clemency. For me, the best
thing is death before the firing
squad of a tyrannical government.”

“Now in 1968 I live in what is
still called Greece, but what is
now more familiarly known as
‘the cradle of terror.’ But this is
not new for me or you. Greece
is not the only police state in the
world.”

Demitri, after hearing Alexandres’ words, seems immeasurably strengthened. He turns to
Constantinos and says: “But what
can we do to get rid of the junta?
They’ve been in power for 19
months.”

Returning to the immediate
situation, Demitri recognizes his
old comrade Constantinos, who
is running down the street from
the direction in which the screams
still echo.
“Constantinos,” whispers Demitri, “who has the military court
sentenced to death today?” Constantinos in a haggard voice replies; “Today it was Alexandras
Panaghoulis, who tried to kill
Premier Papadopoulos and topple
the military regime.”

Constantinos lowers his head
and then slowly, painfully lifts
it. He has a wild look in his
eyes and the words he speaks
are of a special quality and not
directed to Demitri alone.

has

idviser?

A,: In the past the signature of a faculty adviser on the student’s
registration card was considered a safeguard for the student approaching graduation. This semester the departments of Chemistry,
Engilsh, Psychology and Sociology have joined University College advisement in allowing students to sign their own registration cards.
Hopefully other departments will follow suit.

Q.: Hat the university tot up a different or unique set of standards for admission to its special programs? If the answer is yes, do
you feel that this has, in any way, lowered the general standards of
the university?

A.: These programs are called “special" programs because they
are special, that is to say they are different or unique and so of course
all aspects of them are different and unique from admission to registration to courses to evaluative procedures, etc. By definition also at
least the Equal Opportunity Program is regarded as experimental
and it is the very factors of difference and/or uniqueness which make
it experimental.
I would not speculate on whether or not this has in any way
“lowered” the general standards of the University. I feel it is not a
question of lowering or raising standards but rather it is a question
again of using standards that are different and/or unique.

“What did he tell the military

Constantinos candidly replies:
“Why the United States, of
course. They are only worried
about preventing the spread of
communism. Unfortunately, by
following this course they are
killing us all.”

“I have an idea, Constantinos,”
blurts out an exuberant Demitri.
“Why we show our hatred of the
junta by staging demonstrations."
Constantinos interrupts him;
“But Demitri, don’t you remember that the last time we demonstrated our opposition to the
regime, the rulers decided to delay indefinitely the plans to set
a date for opening polls and returning to parliamentary democracy.”

“Then what recourse is there
left to us,” questions Demitri, “if
demonstrations get us nowhere,
and waiting just prolongs the
agony?”

“We are not only fighting the
military regime in Greece. We
are also fighting those who have
supplied it with the means to repress us.”

Criticizes poor theater facilities on campus
To the editor
As director of the recent Student Theater Guild
production of “Sweet Charity,” I would like to
thank The Spectrum for the fine coverage given
to the show. Your series of articles about the progress of the production was an excellent source of
publicity for us and they illustrated to the University the vast number of problems connected with a
theatrical production on this campus.
I would also like to take this opportunity to apologize to those people in our audience who held
seats, but were unable to see. With our limited budget, we spent as much as we could possibly spend
on platforms for seating. Unfortunately the seating
arrangement in the Fillmore Room was not adequate to accommodate the large audiences. This
was due to a lack of foresight on our part and insufficient time to experiment with seating plans.
If Student Theater Guild does another show in
the Fillmore Room, the seating will ibe arranged so
that everyone will see everything. We would also

staff of Norton Hall without whose help the pro-

ABOUT

duction would not have been possible.
It is unfortunate that at a University of this
size and stature, there is no place to perform theatrical productions except a cafeteria. Every night,
all seating and scenery had to be taken down and
then reset on the following day. There are enough
problems connected with producing a large-scale
musical without having to contend with these extraneous difficulties.
I understand that there will be excellent theater
facilities on the new campus, but what about the
students who are here now? Why can't some type
of temporary structure be erected? Everyone would
benefit from it. At least then we would have a
place where visiting groups could perform and our
own productions could be readied with adequate
preparation and everyone in the audience would be
able to see. It’s something for all of us interested
in theater as directors, performers, or spectators
to think about and for the University to do something about.
Robert Nigro
President, Student Theater Guild

‘Amazed and delighted’ by warm reception
To the editor

It is completely disgusting to know that the
best theater facility on a campus of more than
20,000 people is a 250-seat recital hall controlled by
the Music Department. It is revolting when our department in theater has no access to a theater outside of a maximum of two weeks a semester. The
administration should be ashamed to let these conditions exist on campus.
There were about 150 people who demanded
their money back because it was impossible to see.
Several more simply walked out. I would like to
apologize to them. To those who enjoyed the show,
nothing could make Student Theater Guild happier.
Nothing could make me happier. Thank you, you
who enjoyed “Sweet Charity,” thank you very much,
David M. LaRonde

As a member of the cast of “Sweet Charity,” I
would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to you
who came to see us. I was amazed and delighted by
the warm and enthusiastic way the show was accepted.

This is even more amazing when one thinks of
the adverse conditions under which the show was
produced. When on stage, it was all too easy to see
people straining to see even the top of my head.
People were sitting on the floor, on tables, and
standing where there was no room or where the
seats were so poor no one could see anything. To
say the least, these conditions are deplorable when
one considers the size of this University.

My complaints are simple.

I believe the Office of Admissions and Records should look into the procedure they use ip

I received my degree evaluation from the Office
of Admissions and Records. There was an error on
that form, and I also had several questions concerning how pass/fail grades are recorded. I was
told to speak to one of the women who handled the

talking to a student, answered me with statements
like: “Well that’s the way we do it and if you don’t

Mr, Perlmutter, had he read the titles at the

Recommends draft reform

Defining ‘open’
An “open campus” principle is worth nothing unless it
helps preserve (or establish) an open campus,
Such a statement seems at once obvious, but it is important to reiterate it, if for no other reason than to begin
to put the “principle” to practical use. Unless this is done,
the phrase will continue'to be used by this University and
others as a liberal ploy designed to avoid or forestall a
confrontation with issues crucial to the maintenance (or
establishment) of a free academic community.
As we suggested earlier this month, the “open campus”
principle should be applied to many aspects of the University.
In addition to recruitment policy, these are: the expansion of “open” internal decision-making processes; the realization of “academic freedom” in curricula and grading procedures; the establishment of “open” admissions policies; the
“open” and widespread involvement with the problems of the
community-at-large and the commitment of the University
to the larger goal of an “open” society.
In line with this need to further define and apply the
notion of an open campus, the Polity took a major step forward Wednesday in requiring all campus visitors to abide by
the fundamental principles of free inquiry.
Each time a group comes to this campus, they must be
prepared to dicuss their policies in full before the entire
academic community.
Each time a closed group speaks to a closed audience,
this University becomes less and less open. If we want the
kind of open campus repeatedly endorsed by the Faculty
Senate and the administration, and defined most extensively
in recent weeks by the Student Association, such infringements on our academic freedom cannot be tolerated.
This University has been a leader in banning “classified”
research from its laboratories; it has been argued, and rightly
so, that such irresponsible secrecy can in no way be part of
an “open” and “free” academic community. Although we
are told we cannot require our faculty members to refrain
from involvement in independent consulting roles in classified research in private industry, we can and must ask our
placement office to follow the same guidelines we require
of our various research centers.
The policy adopted by the Polity will not become “official” until Dec. 4, when the seven-school-days right-to-peti'ion
period is over. Wednesday’s action clearly indicates, however,
the widespread student dissatisfaction with the policies exemplified by the arrogant refusal of General Dynamics and
Dow to face the academic community openly.
These two corporations arrive here too early to receive
the “official” censure of the Student Association, but not too
early to be treated to a symbolic expression of student
sentiment.
We should all be aware of the crucial gap between
“official” Student Association policy and official University
policy. In recognizing that students act for the most part as
disenfranchized pressure groups within the University structure, we stress the importance of getting this pressure together. Today’s symbolic acts must be transformed into
tomorrow’s University policy.
We therefore urge the newly elected Graduate Student
Assocoation, the Millard Fillmore College Student Association, the professional schools and the Black Student Association to join with the Polity and endorse as quickly as possible
proposals similar to Wednesday’s open campus resolution.
Action on the policy mandated by the Polity could be
implemented directly by the president, through the vice-

Rap with ollie
by Oliver D. Townes

There exists a problem which has been hassling
me for a considerable length of time. Here in this
inhibited, mundane world there are two paths
which we utilize in the compiling of knowledge and
wisdom. Knowledge is found in books—or should I
say most everything is found in books. But wisdom
is the knowledge of real things which were applicable to our past, present and actual life, the life
in which we live. Wisdom was instilled in most of
us starting from our mother wit. Wisdom comes
from mistakes and experiences, knowledge comes
from other’s mistakes.
When I go to the so-called ghettos of Lackawanna—my home as a child, teenager, hoodlum,
young adult and man—to converse with my old
friends, my school buddies, I don’t ever bring
scholastic matters or books into the conversation.
We speak on wisdom and common sense matters.
As far as common sense matters, I’ve learned more
from some of these fellwos than from any PhDholder on this campus.
Sometimes I laugh at some of the things these
men speak about. Some of them never even finished
high school, but they sure have a lot of good views
on life and what’s going on. Too many of us only
touch the book so that one day we can get the piece
of paper. But sometimes we mislead ourselves. That
paper won’t unlock the door to a better life unless
we have the common sense to know which way to
turn the doorknob or which way the door swings.
When I first came on campus, I was really
shocked to find out how many whites were so interested in learning about black people. In almost
every class I’ve had, my brothers and sisters were
brought up for a discussion. In high school this is
seldom done.

But I really wonder if the white man knows that
the black man has been doing his own independent
studies on him. My dad didn’t go as far as the fifth
grade, but I know of the wisdom he has; it is hard
to fool him. I remember the time he almost punched
a salesman because of a lie the salesman told about
the content of a pair of slacks. There was one thing
that my wise dad didn’t tell me, and that was to
not only watch out for the white man but for the
black one as well.
Most of my life I’ve sat with old unemployed
brothers and gotten free lectures on life. I remember even skipping school for some of those rap sessions. At the end of some of the lectures, some old
man and I would repeat: “Wisdom is the wise application of knowledge.”

To me that saying has always been true. Whenever I speak with someone—no matter who it is—I
see how wisely they use their knowledge. Some people don’t apply enough wisdom when expressing
their knowledge. The more knowledge we obtain,
the more self-confident and cautious we should

Comments on editorial staff
To the editor

Mr. Sawicki and the editorial staff of The Spectrum seem to feel that students are forced into
blindly subsidizing an athletic program that is un
worthy of their dollars.
Why devote their criticism to just the Athletic
Department? Are not all of the $70 or so that students have to pay for “student fees” unjust—including the percentage of the payment of fees that
goes directly to The Spectrum? Shouldn’t there be
a reevaluation of how The Spectrum utilizes its allotted monies?
By criticizing a mandatory financial obligation
when, in actuality, it is subsidized by a mandatory
fee, The Spectrum is putting itself in a difficult

position.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

�Ctitback in frosh enrollment
to ease overcrowded campus

dateline news
PARIS
North Vietnam said it expects South Vietnam to end
its boycott and join settlement talks here “in due time.”
Xuan Thuy, chief of the Hanoi delegation to the stalled talks,
made the statement in an interview with the Manila Times.
Diplomats generally said they agreed. With fresh assurance
from Washington that the Viet Cong’s presence at the conference
table does not mean recognition of the guerrillas, South Vietnam was
expected to change its mind and send negotiators to the talks here,
the diplomats said.

NEW YORK—The city’s 55,000 union teachers voted yesterday on
a settlement to end their 11-week-old strike that has kept more than
one million students in the -nation’s largest public school system out
of class for all but 11 days of the fall term.
There appeared to be danger that the settlement, even if approved
by the union teachers, would be rejected by the local governing board
of the largely Negro and Puerto Rican Ocean Hill-Brownsville school
district in Brooklyn.

PARIS
The United States and other capitalist nations came
to the aid of the slumping French franc but its fate depended on
money market trading and expected austerity measures from President Charles de Gaulle’s government.
In Paris financiers watched to see if the franc continued to be
dumped on the currency markets and if Frenchmen grabbed for more
gold on the bullion market.

ant to President Martin Meyerson, said last week that in order
to relieve the crowded housing
situation, for one year there will
be a “change of mix of commuters and out-of-area

students.”

The “mix” refers to the ratio
of commuters and students from
outside the Buffalo area.

Mr. O’Neil referred to the result of a four-point program proposed by President Meyerson at
a Cabinet meeting last week in
an effort to help alleviate the
current housing problem. The program included the following proposals:

There will be no more students in fall 1969 than fall 1968.
A goal bf complete untripling of dormitory rooms will be

‘This will also reduce significantly the number of transfer
students to be admitted in spring
1969,” he said. “Priority will go
to those students who left in
good standing, those who left to
fulfill military obligations and
hardship cases. Beyond those it
will bo, very difficult or practically impossible to be admitted
in February. The number to be
enrolled is hard to predict.”
One point stressed by Mr.
O’Neil is that no decisions have
been made concerning the flexibility of the tenative 1850 students to be admitted in the fall.
He referred to such programs as
those for underprivileged black
students, saying that it will be
necessary to “evaluate this year’s
program” and study both the
“need and potential of such a
program.”
Mr. O’Neil added: “An organized system such as a university
does not have the control over
its numbers as do the military by
power of conscription or the police force by hiring and training.
It is the student’s choice, not a
forced or needed phenomenon,
that determines the mass of an
educational system.”

Henrick Dullea, assistant to the
President, also commented on the
enrollment situation. "The main

Mr. Dullea cited three

for the student enrollment in-

crease: “Firstly, special admissions were allotted to about 125

students after the death of Martin Luther King, Jr. Therefore,
they were not counted in the
original prediction of last year.
“Secondly, revision of the selective service laws affecting male
graduate students was expected to
keep the fall enrollment at the
projected level, when in reality
second-year graduate students
were not taken immediately, increasing this year’s enrollment by
almost 100.
“Each year the Office of Admissions and Records estimates
a proportion of the number of
acceptances which will result in
actual enrollments. For even as
small as a 1% error, there is an
increase of 50 students. The University is presently competing
with a higher caliber of universities for students and therefore
our percentage of acceptances has
tended to be lower.”

Early truce called unrealistic
PARIS (UPI)
North Vietnamese diplomats cast debts on any early cease-fire
in the Vietnam War, They said a truce
was unrealistic until a political settlement
was reached and the United States withdrew its forces from South Vietnam.
—

“Cease-fire is only a stage that is part
of the process of settlement,” Col. Ha Van
Lau said in an interview with the Paris
news magazine L’Express. He is the No.
2 man in the North Vietnamese negotiating team here.
Lau said any settlement would have to

*-

Vietnam and destruction of their bases
there and on the other hand a political
settlement in accordance with the program

of the Viet Cong’s National Liberation

Front

(NLF).

"A cease-fire before we arrive at a conclusion of these two points is not realistic,”
Lau said in the L’Express interview.
On another matter, Lau said United

States claims that North Vietnam had

agreed to expanded two-way negotiations
in Paris was “absolutely false.”

Lau said the United States proposed
such a two-sided conference but it was
rejected and “we finally came to an
agreement of the formula of a four-way
conference in which the United States,
the Democratic Republic of North Vietnam, the National Liberation Front and
the Saigon administration would each
have a complete separate delegation.”
In a separate interview Cyrus R. Vance,
deputy chief of the U. S. negotiating team,
disputed Lau’s interpretation of the agree
ment which provided for South Vietnam
and the NLF to join the preliminary peace

talks.
“We categorically reject Hjis manner of
describing these negotiations,” Vance said.
He described the agreement as a “pragmatic” one for both the United States and
North Vietnam to expand their delegations so that “the principal belligerents
could start talking about how to achieve
peace.”

The research committee, if it had

A random check of the Board of Directors of General Dynamics shows what

advisor to Arthur D. Little Inc., which
does much work for the Pentagon.
Wednesday’s Polity resolution on establishing guidelines for recruiters will
express student concern about the activities of the recruiting corporations. If we
are curious about who is running our lives,
we should be concerned.

What the panels will demonstrate is
that, as Mr. Gerstacker himself says, matters of right and wrong
that is, matters pertinent to academic freedom
do
not concern Dow Chemical, or any corporation. The panels will attempt to show
the contradiction in companies doing
secret research claiming to belong on an
“open campus.” The sociology of the corporations, as demonstrated by writers like
C, Wright Mills, and the economic needs
of these groups will be discussed. This is
education and the passing of the committee’s resolution in Wednesday’s Polity
will demonstrate the students’ concern
for an “open campus.”

A bicameral university governwith “students having veto

Student Association President

ment

Richard Schwab.
Differences between the two
groups would be settled in joint
committees, Mr. Schwab told a
State University College at Buffalo audience Thursday.
Peter F. Regan, executive vice
president of the State University
of Buffalo, sadi a college education has become a “scarce but
necessary commodity,” in the last

20 years.
As a result, students have been
faced with an attitude of college
administrators which Dr. Regan

characterized as: “If you don’t

like it here, go back where you
came from.”
Dr. Regan saw students as
■fighting for restoration of a
right which has historically been
theirs.” He called for decentralization of universities to provide
for meaningful interchange of
ideas within the structure.

Constructive criticism

E. K. Fret well Jr., president of State University College
at Buffalo, stressed the need for
“constructive criticism” on the
part of students. He said it is
vitally important that students be
“really concerned with the entire institution.”
Since “wisdom is never authoritarian,” Dr. Fretwell cited the
necessity of “downward delega-

tion of power.”
Wholesale changes in an "educational system that breeds mediocrity on one hand and overactive frustration on the other.”
were advocated by Marcia Fitzgibbons, president of the host
school’s student government.
Miss Fitzgibbons cited a lack of
communication and a certain degree of hostility between faculty
and students. She feels that students have yet to "grasp the
meaning of the university.”

Both courses include group discussion and field work. Students
live at the College. The threeweek “dig” will take place Aug.

Students are seeking the
“power to influence,” not administer, observed William Lyons,
student government president at
Canisius College. He feels that if
students “get the facts and present them,” they will be able to
use this influence.
Michael Langan, of Canisius
College called for “non-legal bodies composed of students, faculty and administration who represent various interest groups
who would make recommendations to the Board of Trustees.”
Students and faculty serving
directly on boards of trustees
would create conflicts of interest,
said Dr. Langan.
In a panel discussion that was
used generally for a continuation
of previous speeches, Dr. Fretwell questioned the desires of student to involve themselves in student government.
If the activities are “real and
meaningful,” students will participate, Mr. Schwab responded.

Cultural exchange

An archaeological program in
England is being offered by the
Association for Cultural Exchange
this coming summer.
The program consists of a threeweek training seminar at Merton
College, Oxford, and a three week

is $725, including round-trip air

Q.; What is being done to improve the Art
Department? Classes are overcrowded and facilities
are poor.

,

A.: Joseph R. Stillwell, director of financial aid,

said:
“Without the name of the veteran student who
has made this inquiry, we would not be able to
ascertain the particular reason for the delay to
which he has referred. If he will contact our office,
we shall be glad to check the matter for him.
“It is possible that it occurred in the course
of verifying his registration and the number of
semester hours for which he was enrolled; in obtaining necessary information in regard to the
tuition and fees which he would be required to
pay; or in effecting a change in the number of
semester hours for which he was enrolled.
“We hope, in cooperation with the Office of
Admissions and Records and the Office of the
Bursar, to effect certain procedural changes which
will enable us to reduce problem areas of this type.”
Q.

:

A.: Philip Elliott, chairman of Faculty of Arts
and Letters, said;

“There is probably no department within the
University that is not seeking to improve itself.
In our own case we are making strong efforts to
provide a much-needed expansion of offerings that
will make possible a greater service relationship
to other disciplines. Recruiting good people in art
history is, because of present shortages, extremely
difficult. The office of the provost is highly aware
of the situation.
“As to the facilities it must be realized that
our studio programs are, literally, in an interim
building, designed to hold us for a 5-year period.
Though facilities for painting and sculpture are
far from perfect, they are much better than they
were previously in Foster Hall. We certainly need

A.: Richard A. Siggelkow, vice president for
student affairs, said;
“Robert O’Neil, assistant to the president and
professor of law, points out that the doctrine of
“in loco parentis” has been rejected on most campuses. A university cannot and should not seek
special protection or favors for students who violate
the law, whether on or off campus. The university
can and should, however, take whatever steps it
can to see that constitutional rights of students are

“Overcrowding exists in the studios
particularly in sculpture. This has come about through
the incorporation of transfer students from the twoyear colleges that appeared in September without
the previous knowledge of the department.
“The solution to overcrowding must come from

A.: Dr. Siggelkow said:
“The University has no official position on the
draft
or for that matter, on most other government policies. Various units of the University,
including the Faculty Senate and one of the student associations have, however, expressed strong
views on the draft through resolutions. There is
no longer any issue of active cooperation with the
Selective Service through divulgence of class ranking or administering draft tests,

student affairs; Arthur Burke, assistant to the director of University placement and career guidance,
and Ronald Stein, associate director of the office
of student affairs and service, members of the

"When considering cooperative housing, it is
important to note that the community feels an

must come from the participants who would reside in such an enterprise. At Berkeley, Michigan,
Rochdale, and other cooperative ventures throughout the United States and Canada, the measure of
success has been the level of interest and commitment on the part of a hard core or nucleus of
individuals united together to achieve the effective
fulfillment of cooperative living. Therefore, it is
impossible for the University to arrange this type
of housing as it can only come from a “grass roots"

�Spectrum receives top honors
The Spectrum has received an All-American honor rating in the 79th college
newspaper critical evaluation survey conducted by the Associated Collegiate Press.
The All-American rating is the highest award that the organization gives.
ACP judge Arthur Levin said: "The Spectrum is one of the most vital papers
I've seen this year. A service to the community. Creative and timely. The paper can
rate with the top dailies in the country, let alone bi-weeklies."
He called Dimension—the feature magazine of The Spectrum—"a real service."

Judging was based on editions of the paper during January to May 1968.
More than 500 colleges and university newspapers across the nation compete
in the ACP survey.
This latest award ii in addition to two previously accorded the newspaper. The
an A-plus rating from the National School Yearbook Association and the "best of show" award at a press competition held earlier this year in

Editor’s Note: The following is
by a former American citizen now
in Toronto and a member of the
AntiDraft Programme there.

“Hell; no, we won’t go!” Well,
it depends on what the destination is, because we’ve gone.
Where we’ve gone, of course, is
the point; or rather, where we
haven’t gone. “We” are several
thousand former Americans now
living in Canada rather than killing and/or dying in Vietnam or
in the United States,
America is alive and well in
Canada
To the dismay of those who believe that we should be killing
and dying according to law, that
comment by a radio disc jockey
who came here from Virginia is
growing in truth.

He especially praised The Spectrum's sports pages and photography.

is that living here is not a matter

We’re writing of Tom Mooney

of its proximity to the states and

Toronto’s metro area—the city

American city. Traffic, high

thing is deceptively familiar.

It’s deceptive in that when one
gets here, one tries to notice the

the continent.
“Who the hell are we?” is a

�Nixon favors expulsion of
dissident college students
by Dorie Klein
College

Editor

What is President-elect Richard
Nixon’s record on students and

universities and

the role of young

people in society?
Mr. Nixon would like to pro-

“a better alternavide for them
taking

to the streets
tive than
giving them “a
in protest” by
piece of the action.” He has established a Student Coalition to

utilize academic talents to

re-

solve social problems.
Richard Nixon voted in 1947
against $30 million being appropriated for the school lunch program and refused to break a tie
vote in 1960 as President of the
Senate over a $1.1 billion authorization for school construction.
He would now like to make available federal loans for students,
encourage private enterprise to
do the same, and possibly set up

campus releases
Undergraduate Social Welfare Student Association will meet
at 4 p.m. tomorrow in room 231, Norton Hall.
UUAB membership applications are now available in room 261,

On the eve before Election Day,
Mr. Nixon told a TV audience
that he favored expelling dissident students who believe that
“anything goes” when they disagree with the way a university
is being run.
Mr. Nixon is not the only one
to make the suggestion. This
week, Dr. Lewis Powell, Jr., president of the Virigina State Board
of Education, told a convention
of Public University Presidents
in Washington that he favors expulsion as the solution to campus
disorders.
“Like their heroes Che Guevara, Fidel Castro and Ho Chi
Minh, the only language student
extremists understand is force.
These extremists and the faculty
members who support them have
forfeited any rights to remain as
members of the university community. The sooner they are ex*
pelled from student bodies and
dismissed from faculties, the

ing advantages to those who support private schools.
Mr. Nixon has said that, he considers 18-years-old capable of voting and entitled to vote.

Nixon on Columbia
Mr. Nixon called students rebels harmful to education and
deplored those teachers who condone or encourage “the lawlessness of their students.” He calls
Columbia’s uprising “the first
major skirmish in a revolutionary
struggle to seize the universities
and transform them into sanctuaries for radicals and vehicles
for revolutionary political and
social, goals.”
He has promised only to listen
to what he calls “legitimate”
demands from the “great” generation. He warns that “we must
not allow the Latin American university of today to become the
prototype of the American university tomorrow . . . The way to
prevent it is to rid the campus
now of any student organization
or clique which applauds and
uses the type of force employed
at Columbia.”

Ex-Congressional candidate
speaks at Resistance rally
“Theories and slogans are abstractions, and therefore not completely valid. Life is not an abstraction; neither is death.” David
MoReynolds, recent candidate for
Congress in Manhattan’s 19 Congressional District on the Peace
and Freedom Party ticket,
cautioned against killing for the
sake of an abstraction at a Resistance rally Wednesday night.a
Explaining his presence in Buffalo, he said that he had come to
help build the Peace and Freedom
Party into a strong radical movement. He then remarked that had
it not been for the Resistance
movement, Eugene McCarthy
would never have sought the

Presidential nomination. However,
Mr. McReynolds warned against
giving up in the face of defeats
such as Chicago or the recent
election of Richard Nixon to the
Presidency because “no movement
can survive if its members give
up so quickly.”
Referring to the war in Vietnam, he said that the Resistance

believes “no government has the

right to send young men to a
country whose language and history they know nothing about
to ‘accidentally’ murder young
children and then deprive them
of the right to ‘apologize’ because
they cannot speak the language.”

about their terms in prison.
He then warned against “selfglorification” resulting from the
act of refusing the draft. Each
person, he said, moves at a different pace; a person who is participating in his first peace rally
is just as courageous as a man
who is resisting the draft.

The word ‘funk’ dates back to
Victorian times when a young
lady who “funked on the floor”
had no graver problem than fainting, Andre Previn revived the
word in the ’50s when he told his
jazz musicians to “make it funky."
The hot blues were threaty, emotional, deep-down blues. In
funky art the material was unimportant—only the creation itself
mattered.
‘Funk art’ is essentially a San
Francisco creation. Harold Paris,
writing in Art in America, believes that artists felt betrayed
by the traditional forms and ideas
of their society, and so turned
inside for the answers.
“The casual, irreverent, insincere California atmosphere, with
its absurd elements, weather,
clothes, 'skinny dipping,’ sundrenched mentality, Doggie Diner

.
.
all this drives the artist’s
vision inward.”
Funk art is not intellectual, rational or formalistic. What, then,
actually is it? Funk art virtually
defies description. The accepted
definition seems to be: "When
you see it, you know it.”

A bit puzzled by this funky answer, I was helped along the way
by one student who told me that
“funk art is like going to a Sears
Roebuck Christmas party dressed
in a Montgomery Ward suit. The
hostess wears bobby socks and
serves Ovaltine and alphabet

It is usually three-dimensional,
earthy and spontaneous. It is witty, working with paradoxical materials like foam rubber and asphalt. It pens on cliches: “A belt

that in funk art.

Although aides to President
Johnson and President elect Richard M. Nixon have been working
on the transition since the election, no one doubts there will be
snags in the switch from a Democratic to a Republican administration.

The government has already
given Mr. Nixon a 30-room suite
of offices not far from the White

House until the transfer of power.

The allocation of office space
represents the first government
effort to set up a headquarters for
the president-elect. Congress this
year appropriated $900,000 for
moving expenses of the old administration and to furnish space
for the new,

had to find their own office space

One high White House official
who has been connected with the
government for 27 years, said:
“More work has gone into bringing about an orderly, friendly
transition this year than at any
other time in my experience,”

To provide a break-in period
for new officials, Defense Secretary Clark M. Clifford said at a
news conference on Nov. 12 that
he asked Mr. Nixon to appoint his
defense secretary “as promptly
as possible so that we can start
him on a period of orientation.

“If he, the new secretary could
come in and attend our meetings,
meet with me and the Joint Chiefs
of Staff, meet with service secretaries, it could be the most val-

uable month that he had.”

Sec. Clifford has instructed all
31 presidential appointees in the
Pentagon to make space available
in or next to their own offices for
their successors.

�Lunar orbit seen as ‘simple
mission’ by Apollo 8 crew
SPACE CENTER, Houston (UPII
—Discounting Russian fears about
space radiation, America's Apollo
8 moonflight crew Saturday described their Christmas voyage in
lunar orbit as a simple mission

and said it will pave the way and
lessen the risks for a U,S, moon
landing next year.

Astronauts Frank Borman,
James Lovell and William Anders
said their mission—which will
carry them 10 times around the
moon on Christmas eve—has its
share of risks. But Borman, the
commander, said it is planned
conservatively to overcome the
risks.

“I don't think we’re biting off
more than we can chew,” Borman
said at a news conference, “I’rfi
not concerned at all.”
Apollo 8 is scheduled to start
its half-million mile flight to the
moon Dec. 21 and drop into the
Pacific Ocean a week later. The
main reason for flying the mission, Lovell said, is to check the
ability of a spacecraft to navigate

�Stony Brook teachers contest
constitutionality of subpoenas
Special to The Spectrum

Eight Stony Brook educators,
Subpoenaed to appear before the
Grand Jury in the Stony Brook
“big bust” hearings, have gone to
court to contest the constitutionality of the subpoenas. The ease,
presently before the New York
Court of Appeals, has already
progressed through three lower
courts and will go to the U.S.
Supreme Court in the event of a

deadlock.

In January, 1968, police staged
a massive pre-dawn raid on the
State University at Stony Brook
campus, arresting 38 persons,
mostly students, on narpotics
charges. The Grand Jury has
called nearly 90 persons from the
campus to testify—including students, administrators, faculty
members and campus security
guards.

Sweet Charity

Spectrum Staff Reporter

Watching Carol Kauderer play the title role of “Sweet

With her compelling wealth of sad-sack and happy-golucky facial expressions and her singing/dancing dynamism,
she outshone everybody else in the cast.

Charity, is an open-hearted dance

started— singing, dancing, and living "hopefully ever after.”

Funny Oscar
David Laronde was funny as Oscar: so were Susan Zorfas in the
role of Nickie (Charity's friend)
and Brian Adams as Herman, the
Captain Hookish dance hall director. Eric Freedus’ portrayal of
Vittorio Vidal was perhaps a little
too wooden to be laughable.
One of the best scenes was that
of the “Rhythm of Life Church,”
in which the hippie congregation
danced and sang effectively to the
flash of a strobe-light. The ‘‘Rich

coordinated, and looked like half

fectively lighted. A 28-piece orchestra played in a makeshift pit
alongside the audience, taking
special account of the poor acoustics—they had to put in new cur-

tains to absorb sound—and the
audience sat on standard Fillmore
chairs, most of which stood on a
platform raised to improve sight
lines. The only things that were
obscured were the camp little
signs that were marched across
the stage at intervals, and, unfortunately, the bottom half of
the dancing.

Sing, sing, sing
Director Robert Nigro’s resourceful staging kept the show
lively. Dancing and orchestration
were both excellently timed and
integrated. Another good point:
Everybody could sing—well. The
songs themselves were more or
less typical of all Broadway musicals.

There was the usual quota of
desire songs, gloating, hope, and
courage songs, s e 1 f-evaluating
songs. The play’s message, if one
can call it that, is a sort of sidelong view of love as a religion
governed by fate, hope and charity.

Although “Sweet Charity” got
off to a mediocre start, it soon
developed an electric vitality. This
was mainly the handiwork of
Carol Kauderer whose enthusiasm
sparked the others in the cast.
They were good in their own
right, but Miss Kauderer was so
much livelier that at times she
almost drowned them out J altogether. This large difference in
intensity was a little awkward,
but very likely could not have
been helped.

All told, the Student Theatre
Guild production of “Sweet Charity” was musically and choreographically what they call on
Broadway a “hit.”

by Richard Baumgarten

Do you know who’s the number one fan of the Buffalo Bulls
football team? He’s Father Edwin Streng, advisor to Newman Club,
who has missed four State University of Buffalo football games in
nine years.
I sat down with the good Father and we talked about a variety
of subjects. The Father is the type of individual who can hold you
spellbound. He’s just ,a great person, and he’s as interested as they
come.

“This is my ninth year with the football team,” said Father
Streng. “I’ve gone to at least 85 or 90 games. I don’t even count
the miles any more. Almost every trip is at least 1000 miles. I’ve
easily traveled 100,000 miles.”
Father Streng performs a very
important religious function for
all away games by saying pregame Mass with the players, “It
used to be a little more difficult
saying Mass with the team,”
muses the Father. “I had to find
a church, and that was a problem. Now I say Mass right in
the hotel.”
On the average, around 10
players attend the pre-game Mass.
“I get 15-20 on a good day,” adds
the Father.
Father Streng has a great deal of respect for the players who
attend Mass. “X really admire them. They have to get up really early,
get
dressed and shaved. It’s hard.”
For all away games, the Father becomes a chauffeur. His passengers are six pretty cheerleaders with whom he gets along with
magnificently. “He’s great,” says Judy Powell, captain of the cheerleaders. “We call him ‘Our Father.’
What do Father Streng and the cheerleaders talk about along
the highway? “Well, mostly they sleep,” said Father. “They’re great
for sleeping or studying when they’re in the car. I try to talk to
them about what they’re doing or their boyfriends.”
The topic then switched to Father’s adventures on the road, and
the Newman advisor had some great stories to tell. “Any time you
drive to Massachusetts,” began Father, “you always get lost. One
black night in Massachusetts, I got off at the wrong exit. The guy
the toll booth told me to go to the right for two or three miles.
That was nice except that the road went past the motel. We finally
got there all right, but, boy, were we bushed.”
Then there was the game in Tampa, Florida, where 25 Buffalo
Players came down with food poisoning.
“I still remember the
Tampa trip,” recalls the Father, “and the funny thing was that the
hotel manager was a former Buffalo alumnus. Dr. Gicewicz, the team
doctor, still thinks it was the beans.”

“I find Doc Urich a wondrful person. He’s really interested" in
his boys. To him, they’re not machines
they’re people. This is
reflected also in a fine Buffalo coaching staff.”
After nine years of traveling with the football team, does Father

still enjoy traveling, victories, and even defeats if wje play well. A

both teams. The varsity possesses

furious forechecking

Orangemen off the ice.
Captain Billy Newman personally ignited a three-goal second
period outburst which shot the
Bulls from a 1-1 tie into a 4-1
lead. The sophomore from Chip-

pewa, Ont, scored all three Buffalo goals within the amazing
span of 38 seconds. Newman's

goals came at the 2:52, 3:08, and
3:30 marks.
Billy’s wingmate, Bob Albano,
assisted on all three Newman
goals. Newman narrowly missed
a fourth tally a minute later when
State goaltender Rigby stopped
his drive from point blank range.

Bud Bundy finished off the
scoring with five minutes left in
the game, scoring on the old “endaround play.” Picking up an errant State pass, Bundy circled the
Orange net and jammed a threefooter behind the surprised State
goaltender.

Defense improving
Coach Newman, obviously hapwith his first win as head
mentor, still felt there was a lot
of room for improvement. “The
team played a fairly good game.
I’m expecting them to get better,
though, from what I saw tonight.
Our defense seems to be improvpy

ing with Goody, Boyer, DeFoe and
Miller getting better all the time.
Give us a few more games and we
should improve."
Although the Bulls averaged
around 7 goals a game in winning the Finger Lakes Hockey

Newman felt the team could easily have scored more than 7 times

awful lot of scoring chances.” said

Today

Dow Chemical Corpor-

ation has elected to take a moral
they’re going
stand on napalm
—

to stick with it.

“You can debate the war, you
can talk about whether or not we
should be there,” Dow’s President H. D. Doan said last week,
“but while our guys are there we
feel like giving them the weapons
they need, and, believe me, they
really need this one.”
Although Doan feels that the
Vietnam war has “gotten completely out of hand,” and favors
an immediate troop withdrawal,
he also says that “napalm is a
fantastically useful strategic weap-

on.”

'Only way'

no one associated Dow with military products in 1966, by now
more than 90% of all college
students polled know Dow makes
napalm and a majority believes it
is “the number-one supplier of
war materials.” They rank 75th
on the list of defense contractors
for the war
and Doan said he
was not surprised to see several
universities ahead of them on the
list.
—

Interviews unaffected
Napalm was developed before
World War II. Dow has produced
it since 1965 when the Air Force
switched to a gelatin base for
gasoline.
According to Dow recruiters,
the 188 demonstrations on campus in the past year did not af-

fect the volume of interviews.

“There’s only one weapon that
can turn back the human wave
and that’s napalm,” he,, said, as
the liquid fire bomb is the only
way to seep death into concrete
bunkers and protected troop emplacements.
He believes that the Americans would have been pushed out
of South Vietnam in military defeat without napalm.
With napalm accounting for
less than one-half of 1% of Dow’s
total sales, the decision to keep
making the gasoline gel could be
little more than principle. It is
not forced by any governmental
pressure, as government contracts are less than 5% of total

sales.
But Dow does have an image
problem. Citing a recent survey
of students taken by the company, Doan

said that

although

Doan

feels they have

“a right

and a responsibility to be on
campus for those students who
want to discuss job opportunities.
We have always supported the
right of others to debate the issues and to demonstrate peacefully," Dow turns down all but
top students for jobs.
Student leaders have suggested
boycotting the five' consumer
products made by Dow, including
Saran Wrap, to force it to reconsider, but the products make
up only 2.5% of Dow’s sales. The
company denies the report that
one-third of its sales have dropped
off in industry, although 5000
shareholders have sold their stock
for that reason.
“What worries us are the long
term aspects,” Doan said.
Dow plans to interview on 265
campuses this year.

TIME TO

ABOUT

Comments on goals of Independent Study
To the editor:
The students who are enrolled in the Experimental Program for Independent Study are participants in an exciting new educational project,
whose long range goals, if realized, will effect
startling and much needed changes at the university
level.
Many of them are already passionately committed to using the skills they will acquire in
college for the social economic improvement of the
entire community. They, like any other new students in a strange and exciting environment, can
either be turned on or off by the attitudes of the
people around them. This problem is further complicated by the fact that many, if not all of these
students, have at some time or another been victimized by racial prejudice, and are sensitive to the
thousand subtle and insidious disguises it may
take.

The program is more than a mere pedagogic ad-

venture, but a bold and meaningful step in the area

of race relations as well.
Our students will be watching you just as you
are watching them, and you will encounter them
in the classrooms, in the halls, in the lunch rooms,
etc.

We therefore urge all members of the Univer-

sity to extend them the maximum courtesy and
respect, not because they are “peculiar” but because they are unique' and representative of the
highest aspirations in the community. It is only
through this kind of human understanding that
we can begin to bridge the chasm that separates
us and take up the overwhelming educational tasks

that lie ahead.

They are entitled to their opinion about the athletic issue, the Polity form of government and the
people in the government—but this does not give
them the right to slander or libel Mr. Schwab.
If the facts cannot speak for themselves and the
athletic issue settled by the students without mudslinging, then this campus is in a sad state of affairs. Has all reason, common sense or intellect deserted our campus and the Wallace mentality taken
over?
These same people have begun a petition of recall which is obviously a plan to destroy not only
the Polity, but Mr, Schwab personally. The petition
is a meager attempt to support their perverted
sense of judgment on what is Right. It is composed

want it shared among the various bodies affected

by the decisions and policies that are made. We
want to help in running the University. We want to
take more responsibility for our lives and education.
Perhaps restructuring the decision-making process so that undergrads voting (by mail?) on an issue could be weighed 25%, grad students 25% and
faculty 50%, would be most equitable, or even 33%
for each,- Issues within each department would be
decided upon by the students and faculty in that
department. Things affecting all of us would be decided by all of us. We are tired and frustrated
with things being made for us and we are willing
to get more involved to learn and take responsibility
and authority for decisions.
This kind of fundamental restructuring seems
necessary if all the problems manifested because
of the current top-heavy situation are to be solved.
Fixing up a few courses here and there, independent projects and students on committees are not
enough. Many departments are going through much
inward searching because of the need to be really
relevant and serve the need of the students and
people the world over in a most humanistic way.
So let us get on with it.
Terry Keegan

Criticizes ‘strong, senseless minority’

I For rides
I

One of the most important issues being raised on
campuses all over the world this year is, who controls the University and who should. Ultimately,
the people of New York, through the legislators
and trustees, are said to be in control, but this is
debatable when one considers the vast subtle network of business and military connections that more
and more determine policies and the real nature of
the University. President Meyerson is invited in
and takes care of the details through his administration. But is all this really creating a situation which
will “let each become all he is capable of being,”
I don’t think so.
In many departments the faculty makes the ultimate decisions of content and policy within itself.
Students are cordially invited to participate in various faculty committees on a talk and in-put basis
but not as part of the body that makes the decisions.
Even at the University level it is the Faculty Senate
who’ll make the decision on the proposed re-organization to a four-course load. Not one student will
make that decision.
The justification for this state of affairs is that
faculty and administrators are more competent in
the areas of education, administration and in their
own disciplines. This is a highly questionable claim,
but the more fundamental question is the type of
framework that is set up within which to criticize
the program.
The currently existing framework assumes that
there are matters of facts which one is supposed to
know, as shown by the degrees, articles, positions
and general reputation of those who go through the
system of their discipline. They set the goals, criteria of competence and knowledge, compete for
the prizes in the industries of, say, philosophy, sociology and biology, then say they fulfill them best!
Well of course if you set the criteria you can claim
greater “competence.” But that must be questioned
and soon challenged.
And on the other side of the issue, how can the
faculty justify the claim that they should rule because they have the degrees already (“competence”)
when they are dealing in issues more involved with
choice, ethics, aesthetics and goals of the University? They may know more about Plato, but does
that mean Plato should be imposed on those in

philosophy? They may know more in the field of
economics, but are they the ones who should be in
a position to decide that economics does not deal
with giving a fundamental critique of the housing
and tax laws in Buffalo that create ghettos? Should
the head of the Art Department be in a position
to define roles in mutually exclusive terms of “artists and politicians" and then lay down the law on
what will be allowed in that backward, up-tight department?
As long as the current power structure exists, as
long as it is the faculty and administration who rule
without students—though tokenism and gradualism
abound with students’ being hushed up by being
placated and placed on faculty committees—the situation here looks as though it’ll polarize even further .until the clever ploys of the administration
for fending off student inroads into power are no
longer effective and the heart of the issue of change
and real power distribution in the University is
faced openly.
Yes, we want students on the relevant faculty
committees and do not want all the authority. We

on the Polity change; they lost the Student Association elections and the Quadrangle fizzled, in their
master plan to realign the campus in “the right”

direction.
The recall petition would probably silence the
functioning of student government. Our only base
of student power which the administration listens
to could be silenced. Mr. Schwab could be destroyed.
Those in power are accused of manipulation, but it
seems quite evident that the reason for this whole
ruckus is to facilitate manipulation by the “moderates" for some future hour.
Could the failure of the Quadrangle be the thorn
in their minds spurring them on to even greater
heights of stupidity?

It is about time the students on this campus
woke up and realized that they are being threatened
by The Right. In any corner we choose to hide and
remain faceless, someone is using this apathy for his
own personal gains. This has taken on new dimensions—much greater than a $12.50 athletic fee.
It is this apathy which allows these people to
play their little political games. However, the Polity gives every one of us a chance to have our own
say in University affairs.
Tyranny by a strong, senseless minority is even
more dangerous than rule by the majority. The petitioners
“moderates” or "Spectrum-haters” or
whatever—have been saying publicly that they are
in the majority, while only the same 30 or 40 faces
show up at the Polity meetings week after week.

Outside threats such as the Selective Service or community red-baiting have pushed the more innovative administrators into wanting to create a fantasy-world University
community distinct from the menacing society at-large.

Experimental programs at large universities and some
smaller colleges have been reaching out for students to tune
in with academia and drop out of society.
Secondly, thete has been new emphasis, among faculty
as well as administrators, on the need to re-evaluate the
learning experience who teaches whom, who learns what,
qtc. As part of this re-evaluation, a significant sampling of
student input is required. That is why administrators here
are desperately in favor of student participation on educational committees. They say they want student power, but
what they really want is a vague reassurance of their own
role (they too feel alienated) and a broad sampling of educational data to be processed by them in creating, in their view,
the most satisfactory educational community.
The idea of creating a community is an inviting one, but
we can not be conditioned like the smiling automatons in
Walden Two. Token representation
which means all participation directed from the top down
might provide a
fine sampling for estimating the contingencies of an educational experiment, or for providing the administration with
valuable thermometers to be used to keep the tensions here
just below the boiling point; but none of this begins to solve
the real problems of making the university experience
immediately more relevant, or of alleviating the pervasive
sense of screw-it-all frustration one feels asia student in this
University, as a youth in society.
—

—

Student power does not mean creating satisfactory ratios
of input into the decision-making machine. It merely means
Get It Together, as our black brothers say. It means the
education is for us, we must determine its important constituent parts; as individuals we must determine our own
direction. We are the clients of this University, not its

products.

A student-faculty committee has drawn up a list of
proposals for curricula and grading reforms, to be presented

to the Faculty Senate in two weeks. The direction of the
proposals are important, hinting at a liberation of the learning experience here. There are, as we pointed out last week,
many things wrong with them, and these ambiguities should
be cleared before the final proposals are voted on.
We must realize, however, that these proposals are the
result of compromises at several levels, aimed mainly at
what might be possible in the Faculty Senate. That is why
it is most important for us to present a definitive student view
to the Faculty Senate: only by showing that the committee
report lies somewhere in the middle, between the two
“extremes” of student freedom and faculty prerogative, can
we guard against any further watering down of the proposals.
Tomorrow’s polity should produce, in addition to suggested revisions of the reforms, a strong statement of student
aims in educational planning. It is the Faculty Senate’s (the
decision-maker’s) job to compromise, not ours.

point of order
by Randall T. Eng

New York’s famed teacher’s strike is symtoma-

tie of the violent dichotomies which ail our society.
It is neither a simple labor dispute nor a stand on
definite principles. Instead, the strike is a microcosm of the stresses which are pulling the nation
apart. The confrontation over Ocean Hill-Brownsville has been viewed as a virtual Armageddon by
many on both sides.

The United Federation of Teachers is the nation’s largest union local. It struggled for many
years to gain an effective bargaining position for

its 55,000 teachers. The union president, Albert
Shanker, is a ruthless bargainer and negotiator. He
commands the total respect and allegiance of most
of the city’s teachers.
Ocean Hill-Brownsville is more than a neighborhood or a school district. It is a bold experiment in
community controlled education. The concept of
decentralization is akin to the notion of academic
reform at this University. It seeks to place the authority and responsibility of the educational process into the hands of those who are to benefit
from it.

The local governing board of the Ocean HillBrownsville district was given complete latitude in
administering the schools within its jurisdiction.
This also meant that teachers could be transferred
at the discretion of the board. The board, composed
of neighborhood leaders and educators, was charged
with curriculum planning and structuring.
Early iri the academic year, the local board decided to transfer 19 teachers from the district because of alleged sabotage to the decentralization
experiment. The union, fearing for job security,
immediately sent out on strike. Many career teachers feared mass dismissals on the part of other
local boards if the experiment were extended. The
community board held fast to its decision and refused to readmit the dismissed teachers under any
circumstances. It continued to operate its eight
schools with non-union and community personnel.
Throughout the various strikes, union president
Shanker has charged the local board with attempting what he termed a “Nazi takeover of the school
system.” The local board in the meantime hurled
accusations of racism. This unfortunate name-calling
has blurred the real issues of the controversy. 1,100000 public school children have missed the better
part of the fall term because of the tragic failure
of (heir ciders to communicate.
If the black and Puerto Rican communities of
New York are to retain and nourish their identities,
they must control their local educational establishments. Cultural self-sufficiency cannot be attained
if education is imported from other sectors of society. Pride in oneself is the most important step
toward breaking the vicious circle of cultural and
economic exploitation. The young can be taught to
begin life without the stigmas and inhibitions which
were so thoroughly ingrained in their parents. The
revolution which is to take place in American society can be removed from violence if we can spend
more time preparing for accomodation and less time
preparing for conflict.
The Ocean Hill Brownsville controversy has an
important message for the University. Since we are
embarking upon an ambitious program of academic
reform and decentralization, can we expect problems similar to those which have plagued the New
York school system? This is a distinct possibility,
because we are faced with some of the same problems. Students wish a voice in policy decisions
even in the hiring of faculty. Harmony is now evident—but can we be certain that our goals will always be the same? It would be wise to create mechanisms which would avoid some future impasse.

leaves'are all

gone.

Perhaps we could begin to build snow piles in
which all could frolic and play and create harmony
this winter. My chick says she might dig it which
means that snowpiles might extend our relationship
until April, Then we might be able to get a mud
pile campaign started, so everyone could frolic and
groove in the mud. All we would have to do in that
ease would be to convince people it’s not dirty to

do it in the mud.

Just think how pleasant we could make the Buffalo winters! using snow piles. Just think how much
fun the new campus might be with the new-found
pastime of grooving in the mud piles.
Snow is on its way, and with it a chance to begin a grand experiment in building a genuine community at this University.

‘Thank you,’ Ollie
To the editor:

I want to take time to thank Oliver Townes very
much for the fine article in The Spectrum Nov. 8
concerning the destiny within our own race of people showing that if we are going to try to get together, we must have extrovert qualities.
Again, thank you, and keep sockin’ it to them

Comments on letter
To the editor.

In reference to Mr. Ellsworth’s letter of Nov
12: He seems well versed in political terms, yet he

doesn’t understand a damn thing about politics.
Furthermore, he doesn’t even understand the problem.
He quotes Phil Ochs’ “Love Me, I’m a Libera!”
and doesn’t even understand that Mr. Ochs is condemning society and its tendency to appease their
consciences with a dollar sign, rather than with a
commitment to a cause.

The Student Association Committee on Admis
sions is not flashing money, but instead is doing
something about our elitist University. Also, imagination brings about change and I think we would
both agree that both the society and the State Uni
versity system need a lot of change.
The disadvantaged persons Mr. Ellsworth refers
to are quite enthusiastic about our work. I suggest
that if he is one of the individuals on this campus
who just theorizes about the evils of our society
while sitting in the Rathskeller and makes no at
tempt to change the society, he should either join
the committee or just shut up—and no criticize
people who have a true commitment and ate taking
action to effect needed change.

But, just as in the one-room schoolhouse, the teacher
must respond'to the students’ moods, if harmony is to prevail.
Responding to a growing sense of alienation, to increasingly
frequent repudiations of the kind of education provided
and to the real or imagined threat of a student-directed shutdown, administrators have gradually acknowledged the necessity to expand student influence. A student on a committee here, three students on a research group there
grudging efforts to keep the niggers happy. Token representation on advisory committees seemed a good gesture
because it was a case of students representing really no one,
yfhere radical ideas could always be dismissed as unique.

I think the guy who suggested in a letter to the
editor a couple weeks ago that we build a big campus leaf pile, which all students, faculty and administrators can use to frolic and play, had a
groovy idea for increasing campus harmony. I tried
it last week in the yard behind my apartment and
began the wildest relationship With a strange, gor
geous chick.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Athletic fee $5.50 by
by Marge Anderson
Campus Editor

As the result of a referendum held
Monday and Tuesday, the mandatory
athletic fee for the spring semester will

be

%

State University of New York at Buffalo

Vol. 19, No. 19

$5.50.

Faced with a choice between a
$12.50 and a $5.50 fee, 2210 of the total
3760 students voting in the referendum
chose the lower amount. A third choice
of no fee was written in by 13 students.

Student Association President Rich-

ard Schwab indicated that it was
“probably the largest turnout ever for
any kind of referendum.” In a statement to The Spectrum, Mr. Schwab
gave his reactions to the referendum result: “Everbody has congratulated me,
but it has nothing to do with a personal
victory.
“My faith in the polity system has
been increased. Presented with facts,
and at the same time misleading information and out and out lies, a decision
based hopefully on intellect, not on innuendo, has been made. I want to make
it clear, too, that I’ve begun an effort
to seek aid from the state for a balanced
athletic program and I think we should
also touch the other elements of financial support.”

“We

can't carry on the present program with
a $5.50 fee. The students have destroyed the hopes of respectable athletic
facilities on the new campus.”
He added that “anything I’d say
would be premature,” until the next
move of the administration is made.

Mr. Baumgarten told The Spectrum: “Sure, I’m disappointed in the
results. I felt the Athletic Department

Dr. Peter Regan, executive vice
president, explained that the University has requested additional funds
from the state in the face of the present
state policy that forbids the granting
of such funds.
Whether this request is granted will
not be known until the governor is
presented with the executive budget in
January. A request for $100,000 has
been made by the State University to
the Division of the Budget.

not only needed but deserved $12.50.
However, I feel something positive has
come out of this referendum.
“Anyone desiring a change in the

status quo will not be afraid to start
a referendum—and it can be done.

“My advice to anyone starting a
referendum is to be very careful about
the wording of the petition so that the
intended results will not be changed
by a legal loophole. If I had been a
little more careful about the wording
of the amount in the first referendum,
it would not have been necessary to
have the second.”

“Over the next few weeks we will
attempt to clarify the options that are
left open to us,” Dr. Regan explained.
“In light of the decision by the students
to have a $5.50 athletics fee, we have
to find out how to address ourselves to
this reality. We haven’t completed the
examination of options that are avail-

Also disappointed with the result
of the referendum was Athletic Director James Peelle. He said that he
had “no comment until some of the ad-

able to us.”

He indicated that he has already
sent letters to Gov. Rockefeller, Samuel Gould, chancellor of the State University and Thomas Hurd, state budgetary director.

Mr. Schwab continued: “I think
we’re first getting to the point, since
emotion has cleared the air, that we can
begin to assess what’s going on in that
department, just as the students should
be concerned about what’s going on in
the other departments.
“I’m sure the Athletic Department
is going to survive this year. Before
spring we’re going to have evaluated
the present athletic programs so we’re
in a better position to assess their needs
for ’69-70.”

WASHINGTON
America’s Catholic bishops have arrived at

by Sarah de Laurentis

—

Awaiting action before the bishops adjourn their annual fall meeting here is a somewhat vaguely worded pastoral letter which seems,
in its present form, to leave the way open for Catholic couples to
practice contraception if they prayerfully and conscientiously disagree with Pope Paul's teaching that it is immoral.

lay down the narrow limits of life in an occupied nation.

Beneath the tinkling chandeliers and lofty gothic ceilings of

ities which “should be thoroughly
examined and revised.” Among
them he mentioned the limitation of S/U graded courses to
only 25% of the students’ total.
He termed this arbitrary and said
the number of courses taken under this grading system should be
each student’s choice.

'Classroom game'
He also discussed the right of
faculty members to choose the
method of grading to be used in
their courses. This, he said, was
a “serious continuation of the Simon Says classroom game which
students unequivocally oppose.”
“It is very important that the

students decide what their stand
is and that they give an indication
of this to the Faculty Senate,” Mr.
Holtzclaw said.
In response to a question concerning the advantages of a fourcourse system, Prof. Barber continued: “Many students are overloaded. They are preoccupied

with the scramble instead of the
initiative. Required courses keep
hitting them with one deadline
after another.”
The Polity will meet Wednesday to vote on the proposals facing Faculty Senate approval.

by Robert P. Sawicki
As if mandatory fees were not inane
enough, now we are confronted with having to vote for either a $5.50 fee or a
$12.50 fee. Mandatory fees and the draft
are all part of the same soup. Since people
will not perform these roles under their
own volition, we make them perform.
We’ll make people go into the army, because very few will volunteer for the dirty
end of a dubious system of policies. We’ll
make people pay an athletic fee because
people don’t care enough to pay up otherwise. In fact, people are so obtuse and in-

sensate that most did not bother to vote

one way or the other for the fee in the
first place. It’s the same all over: Govern-

ments of all sizes in America can milk
the people of fantastic amounts of money
because people don’t give a damn if their
money is stolen or not.

a gross profit of $1,271,903,000, or about
0.6%. In 1963 and 1964 it paid 4.3 and
1.7% respectively.
Not many people, and certainly not the

'economy of peace.’
Well, you can just imagine the chagrin
of American military men upon hearing
Mr. Yaro’s heresies. After all he was striking at their very raison d’etre.
”

When touring the never-never land of
South East Asia, one simply must stop and
visit the primal beauty of America’s nevernever foreign policy in its natural habitat.
An example is a wonderful little group
of islands south of Japan called the Ryukyus, where one can still witness the virtues and glories of American foreign pol-

The United States High Commissioner,
Lieut. Gen. Ferdinand T. Unger voiced his
opinion of some of Mr. Yaro’s proposals:
“Okinawa is vital to the air defense of
Taiwan and of South K6rea. I feel very
strongly that nuclear weapons should continue to be available at the Okinawa
bases.”
However, one must not think that these
are the “empty, meaningless” ravings of
the military mind. After all, Mr. Yaro will
still have to gain approval of his programs
from Warden Unger.
Of course, the Commissioner is merely
articulating the acknowledged policy of
the United States in Asia. To wit: The United States recognizes Japan’s “residual
sovereignty” over the Ryukyusj, but insists
that it retain full administrative control
as long as the “Communist” threat to
peace in Asia requires it.

icy, a la 1946.

Yes, the Ryukyus where “slowly but
surely” the populace is learning all about
democracy—“the American way.”
In fact earlier this week the people of
Ryukyu gave their American administrators a wonderful demonstration on how to
conduct a popular election for the “very
first” time. It was the highlight of the
social” season.
The delightful Ryukyuans responded to
22 years of American teaching and preparation for the fateful day by electing
Chobyo Yaro, a Socialist.
At this point some additional tidbits of
knowledge should be brought to light.
Among the islands of Ryukyu there is
Okinawa, which has been an American
military base since World War II.
Part of Mr. Yaro’s platform was a call
to return full control of the Ryukyus to
their rightful heirs the Japanese, and to
slowly eliminate the American bases on

Okinawa.

As Mr. Yaro suggested to his people

*

Ah, the Ryukyus, blessed islands on a
cursed planet. One can just imagine Commissioner Unger’s expression on some future morning confronted with an enraged
populace screaming at him: “If you don’t
like it fiere, why don’t you move to Russia?”

U.S., Hanoi put off talks
PARIS
The United States and Hanoi
agreed tacitly to a new postponement of
expanded Paris talks on Vietnam despite
warnings by allied diplomats that serious
new fighting may erupt in South Vietnam
unless the conference is convened soon.
—

By quiet accord, North Vietnamese and
American officials decided to delay the
start of the talks until the Saigon government agreed to take part.

The expanded talks, originally scheduled for Nov. 6 following the bomibinghalt agreement, had been put off indefinitely last week, but there had been hopes
that they might begin this week. These
hopes vanished, however, when allied and
Communist diplomats said there would be

no meeting Wednesday.
The deadlock over the status of the
negotiating teams at the talks deepened
when Hanoi again flatly rejected Saigon’s
latest demands that the Viet Cong repreF rid*y, November 15,

sentatives be invited only as members of
North Vietnam’s delegation.
Under the Saigon proposal put forward
by President Nguyen Van Thieu, South
Vietnam would head the allied delegation
with the United States playing a secondary
role in virtual bilateral negotiations.
Hanoi diplomats, showing growing impatience over the delays, called the Saigon demands “absurd.” Xuan Thuy, chief
Hanoi negotiator, accused, the United
States of deliberately delaying the start
of the talks.

In Saigon, Information Minister Ton
That Shien said the Saigon government
still was waiting for an answer from Washington on its latest proposal. He accused
Washington of going ahead with the bombing halt without any agreement from Saigon on what the exact formula for the
Paris talks would be.

burglary case—one of whom was a drug
addict and another who had pleaded for
leniency because he was going to enter
the service soon—Gaughan termed the
heroin addict “the classic example of a
drug addict;” he could “see him committing worse and worse crimes,” and told
the other that: “I have a feeling that you
will wind up discharged from whatever
service you enter in a short time." As the
day moved on, Gaughan sentenced another burglar, calling this one a “pathological liar,” and telling the man that his
plea for clemency was out of order because: “In all probability you are a habitual criminal.”
Some smoke, some commit crimes; and
this does lend some plausability to the

Since the Peace Corps representatives
were here last week, perhaps a few words
on the Corps are in order. What is the
Peace Corps? My number one impression
of the Peace Corps is that it is the number
one farce from the most mythicized American character since Abraham Lincoln
—John Kennedy. It is a joke on the volunteers and a swindle of the people it purportedly helps. A man volunteers, is
trained, goes into the field and then is
released from the service. He has been
paid at only a subsistance level, and derives no post-service benefits except those
which he can conjure up in his own mind.
On the other hand, a man goes into the
army, he is paid much more liberally, and
when he gets out has a host of benefits:
GI home loans, GI pensions, etc.

The P.C. volunteer has helped the people of some country to a standard of living
that discourages any sort of revolutionary
action while the green berets have trained
the country’s army in counter-insurgency
tactics. The net result is that a country
becomes a more economically valuable
functioning element in the U.S. sphere of
influence, and the government, no matter what type, is assured a continued span
of rule. Salazars, Francos and military
juntas the world over, all riding politically
roughshod over their peoples, all paying
homage to the American dollar—but the
people will be a little better off than they
were, and safe from socialist tendencies.
The cost for America for all this will be
cheap, too, because volunteers did half
the job.

Court rules on evolution laws
WASHINGTON—Forty-three years after
the famed Scopes “monkey trial” the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that state
laws prohibiting the teaching of evolution
in public schools are unconstitutional.

The action struck down a 40-year-old
Arkansas anti-evolution law on grounds it
violated the constitutional guarantee of
freedom of religion. The decision is also
expected to knock out a similar law in
Mississippi, the only other state with such
a statute on the books.
The court had never before spoken out
a punishable offense to
teach the Darwinian theory of evolution.
But in the Arkansas case, Justice Abe Fortas termed the statue “an attempt to blot
out a particular theory because of its supposed conflict with the biblical account,
literally read.”

“Plainly the law is contrary to the man-

date of the First and in violation of the
14th Amendment to the Constitution,”
Justice Fortas declared.
The First Amendment contains the
guarantee of freedom of religion; the 14th
makes it binding on the states.
The Arkansas law forbade the teaching
that “mankind ascended or descended
from a lower order of animals.” The
penalty for violations was a $500 fine and
dismissal. No one had ever been prosecuted under the statute adopted by a
voter referendum in 1C28.
The Arkansas law was approved three
years after John T. Scopes, a Dayton,

Educational Association and the father of
four school-age children.
The Pulaski Chancery Court in Little
Rock held the statute unconstitutional
after a 1966 trial, but the state supreme
court upheld the law in a two-line opinion
declaring the state had authority “to specify the curriculum in its public schools.”
Justice Fortas acknowledged this right
of the states but not in instances where
it violates freedom of religion.
“It is clear that fundamentalist sectarian conviction was and is the law’s reason
for existence,” he wrote.

�‘Won’t go’ petition
signed by students Bennis
Universit

Richard Schwab, Student Association president, and Barry
Holtzclaw, editor-in-chief of The
Spectrum, are among the student
leaders and editors to sign a
national “We Won’t Qo” statement being circulated throughout
the country.
This past year, a similar statement was signed by 103 students
and placed in the Congressional
Record, as well as advertised in
national publications.
The wording of this year’s
statement is as follows:
“Students have, for a long time,
made known their desire for a

negotiations, however, are not an
end in themselves, but rather, the
means to a complete ceasefire and
American extrication. And until
that cease-fire is reached, or until the Selective Service System
is constructively altered, young
men who oppose this war will
continue to face the momentous
decision of how to respond to the
draft.
“In June of 1967 our predecessors submitted, along with a
letter to President Johnson, a
petition signed more than 10,000

campuses, calling for alternative

Developing his ideas on learning, Dr. Bennis reviewed the plan
of the new campus to create colleges which will consist of 400
resident students and 600 commuting students in hopes of integrating both groups.
He briefly examined the general purposes of the

masters of
each of the first six colleges adding that “perhaps the next six
colleges could be like a good hotel

More flexible
Concerning his own role, Dr.
Dr. Bennis revealed that “we are
moving toward a more flexible
calendar.” He explained that the,
University does not really have a
rigid coherance as such.

At the start of his lecture, Dr
Bennis requested that each member of the audience recall “the
last time you learned something
really significant and truly profound
something that changed
your behavior and the way you
think about things.”
Considering his own profound
learning experiences,
he disclosed that “they rarely took
place in a classroom
in all
cases I was active and felt I had
determined the goals. When I
—

...

began teaching, I began learning
for the first time.” As a result,
he proposed that all students
should have the opportunity to

work in research and to teach.

Dr. Bennis said that in order
to learn there must be an integration of ideas, actions and feel-

ings, and that college should afford an opportunity to experiment with all of these. “Experience per se isn’t the best best
teacher
it’s the quality of the
experience that counts. It’s the
right critical experience that stimulates learning,”

University 'vulnejAble'
Discussing the university system in general, Dr. Bennis admitted that “its role in society
is not clear” since many individuals question whether the university should be a service station, an uninvolved and aloof
critic or an intellectual trading
post. He admitted that "though
the university commands extraordinary resources, it essentially
is not self-supporting, .and this
makes it terribly vulnerable.”
Dr. Bennis asserted the need
for a "consumer-oriented university where students can get together to select a professor they
want.” Indicating the need for
more choice in the student’s education, he said: “I’d love to support a student strike on how the
current educational process is
failing.”
Referring to the specific situation at this University, he said:

Mechanism set up for
airing math complaints
To bring about greater student
participation in the quality, con-

tent and administration of their

mathematics courses, the Advisory
Committee for Undergraduate
Studies is asking for criticism.
The committee requests students enrolled in a mathepiatics
course to make known their views
on any problems facing their particular math class, so that constructive change can be implemented and unjust situations eliminated.

“If you have any personal or
general complaints concerning existing inequities in the administration of your mathematical education in regards to a particular
course, or suggestions relating to
the Math Department in general,
tell them to the committee,” said
Stephen Gagola, president of the

taken on specific proposals and
departmental announcements.
Students interested in acting
as a classroom representative or
in registering complaints should
write to the Math Department,
Box 38, 4246 Ridge Lea Rd. They
should include name, address, student number, phone number,
course and section number of the
class to be represented. Applications can be sent through the
campus mail free of postage.

Math courses represented to
date are: 435 RLD, 319B, 122B,
141B, 427, 231G, 121A, 241A, 417,
and 321RLC. All other math
courses still need representatives.

“We reject the concept of the University as a “valuefree” institution. We believe that what purports to be valuefree is usually in essence pro-Establishment by its very
failure to challenge the norms and values of our society.
For example, when Columbia takes no stand on the Vietnam
war, it is in effect guilty of complicity in the war; the presence of NROTC and military-related research on campus
only contributes to this complicity.”
This is the statement of Students for a Restructured University in a recently issued preliminary report on suggestions for
sweeping reform. SRU is a splinter group of SDS dating from last
spring’s uprising, which included
many students involved in student government.
The committee’s suggestions did
not compromise with reality of
their chances of being carried out,
but constituted the most radical
and most penetrating of all the
proposals of various groups formed to reconsider Columbia’s structure. With a warning that “restructuring alone cannot resolve
adequately many of the issues of
the Columbia rebellion, for these
issues are not confined to the university but permeate our entire
society,” the SRU report presented an outline of a plan to “transform Columbia from an authoritarian to a democratic institution.”

Academic reforms
Constitutions are proposed for

each department, with faculty and
students having an equal voice in
the decision-making. Departmental committees would be elected
annually to handle relevant matters. Each department would nominate members to serve in the

ulty members and students with
one vote per member, would be
a body of about 100 and would
handle all matters of consequence. They would nominate
candidates for president of the
University, to be elected by the
University community, to serve
for five years and they would elect the provost. Various committees would be elected by the JL:
to plan overall curricula, to
handle labor questions, to set
guidelines for university research,
to appropriate funds, to review
tenure criteria, to oversee the ad-

ministration, to

deal with

the

community and to handle faculty
and student problems.

The administration would act
“as a civil servant, carrying out
as efficiently as possible the decisions of the JL.” The president
would be chiefly a ceremonial
head and fund-raiser, along with
the trustees.

In the case of all officials, direct elections, nominations by el-

ected bodies and right of recall
are provided for.

Students and faculty
It is the students and the fa

culty, in the view of the SRU,
who should mainly govern the
University. Alumni would participate in voting, and the community would be provided with an
Ombudsman and the right of referendum on matters affecting

them.

The hope is generally that “Columbia will evolve into a working,
equal partner rather than an exploitive and dominant force over
the people surrounding it,”
Freedom from outside control
is provided for to the greatest exten possible and the academic
stress would shift to independent
work. Grass-roots action on all
matters would be encouraged and
essential to- the success of the restructuring.

Open functioning of the University, barring secret research,
is called for. Also demanded is a
committee to initiate constant reform, for restructuring is an ongoing process and the University
must constantly be an educational innovator. Minority rights are
protected:

“In the context of an increas
ingly repressive society, it is vi
tal that the University be main
tained as a center for free expression and unbridled creativity.”
Rejecting the “open campus,”
the SRU concludes that the University “serve as a critic of our
society. The University should
properly be a base for the democratization and humanization
of our society.”

In addition to departments

Notes of the Central Committee for Conscientious Objectors, the

issue/
$
"

of September-October 1968.
by Ar!o Tatum

The Special Form for Conscientious Objectors (No. 150)
has been substantially streamlined by Selective Service, and
has been brought into conformity with the Military Selective
Service Act of 1967.
Page one, after brief instructions, quotes Section 6 (j) of the
Act in full. More important, it
provides that the form must be
returned within 30 days instead
of ten, a great boon for applicants
who need to collect supporting

letters from scattered references,
or who have not worked out their
answers in advance of requesting
the form.

Series I continues to be two
paragraphs, of which the registrant should sign only one. But
for the first time the form specifies that in signing paragraph A
one is requesting I-A-0 (noncombatant status) and that paragraph
B should be signed by those seeking 1-0 status, and prepared to
perform civilian alternative service

if called.

The new polite air of the form
is immediately apparent, for the
applicant is told he “should” sign
either A or B (instead of “must”).
Added is the request: “If he can
not sign either one, he 'must explain why.” The old form demanded four times, in black type,
that all questions be answered.

In Series II the following two
questions have been removed:
“Do you believe in a Supreme
Being? (Yes or No) Describe the
nature of your belief which is the
basis of your claim made in Series 1 above, and state whether
or not your belief in a Supreme
Being involves duties which to
you are superior to those arising
from any human relations."

These questions have been replaced by: "Describe the nature
of your belief which is the basis
of your claim and state why you
consider it to be based on religious training and belief."

In dealing with the new questions, applicants would do well

to remember that U.S. v. Seeger
remains as near to a legal definition of religion as the Supreme
Court has provided;
“Under the 1940 Act it was
necessary only to have a conviction based upon religious training and belief: we believe that is
all that is required here. Within
that phrase would come all sincere religious beliefs which are

based upon a power or being, or
upon a faith, to which all else is
subordinate or upon which all
else is ultimately dependent. The
test might be stated in these
words: A sincere and meaningful
belief which occupies in the life
of its possessor a place parallel to
that filled by the God of those admittedly qualifying for the exemption comes within the statutory definition.”
Source of

belief

Question 2 was the third question on the earlier version 6f the
No. 150. Explain how, when and
from what source you received
the religious training and acquired the religious belief which
is the basis of your claim. Although this continues to treat
training and belief as separate
items, contrary to court decisions,
it has been substantially improved
by the addition of advice: (Include here, where applicable such
information as religion of parents and other members of family; childhood religious training;
religious and general education;
experiences at school and college;
organizational memberships and

affiliations; books and other readings which influenced you; association with clergymen, teachers,
advisers or other individuals
which affected you; and any other
material which will help give the
local board the fullest possible
picture of how your beliefs developed.)

New question
Complaints about the old No.

150 included the fact that it did

not elicit from the applicant why privately? written or oral, to the
status views herein expressed as the

he had applied for one CO

rather than the other. This has
been rectified by No. 3, a new
question: To what extent does
your religious training and belief
restrict you from ministering to
the sick and injured, either civilian or military, or from serving in
the Armed Forces as a noncombantant without weapons?
Perhaps local boards question
in this area (Why
not take I-A-O?”) than any other.
With the change in the form, men
can make their position clear in
advance, perhaps in a more
thoughtful and convincing manner.
claimants more

COs will no longer be asked
they rely for religious guidance, a question which
served no known purpose. Nor
will they be asked on the new 150
to repeat the background information on education and employers
which was given on earlier forms.
upon whom

Rather surprisingly, not only
Series III (Background Information) but Series IV —Participation
in Organizations has been eliminated. The latter asked questions
about one’s church affiliation, if
any, and the attitude of that
church toward participation in
war. Its elimination should make
it clear to draft boards that activity in religious groups is not
a necessary ingredient of religious belief.

Question 4 on the new form
combines

intelligently the old
questions No. 6 and 7: Have you
ever given expression publicly or

Chevrolet Sports Shop

(Freely translated from the French) “I am a man who drives

about the brave new Chevrolet and its Sports Shop.
“Only in the Chevrolet Sports Shop do you find cars
like the Camaro Z 28. Ah, the Z/28. Cama' with

basis -for your claim? Give examples.

These are the four questions on
the No. 150, followed by a place
to list references, with the sug.
gestion that references “write directly to the local board in sup.
port of your claim.”
From now on would-be COs will
not have to struggle over “Under
what circumstances, if any, do
you believe in the use of force?"
It has been eliminated. It was
highly objectionable, for to local
draft boards it seemed to imply
that COs had to be pacifists, in
the sense of striving to be nonviolent in all personal relationships. Its removal, however, may
prove to be a mixed blessing,
since no substitute question asks
if one is opposed to “participation in war in any form,” as the
law requires.
It is difficult to believe that
draft board members will stop
asking young men how they
would protect their grandmothers
from sexual assaults, or what they
would do if the United States is
invaded—an event which was, is,
and presumably always will be imminent so far as board members
are concerned. COs may well face
the same questions at personal appearances without the benefit of
having sorted out their thoughts
in writing in advance. And there
is a danger that more State Selective Service Directors will prepare additional questions to supplement the official form. These
may in effect establish different
criteria for obtaining CO recognition in different states, violating
the intent of Congress and the
constitutional concept of equal
standing before the law.
National Selective Service has
nonetheless produced a far more

intelligent and more appropriate
application form for conscientious
objector status. This can be recog
nized and appreciated even by
those of us who consider conscription in general, and the Military
Selective Service Act of 1967 in
particular, to be morally repugnant.

Internationally known author and critic Leslie Fied/er contemplates the bleakness of his office. His
latest published work advocates a totally free university.

,

.

j

The question of freedom, already cogently explored by Erich
Fromm and hundreds of political
philosophers, of course goes far-

ther than the classroom. Within
the university framework, however, it is a much-debated and
little
understood concept. Dr.
Fiedler’s discourse on academic
freedom—the freedom not to be
responsible—spares few and elucidates much.
Dismayed by the vehemence
with which society condemns
those who choose to experiment
unconventionally in sex and banned drugs, Dr. Fiedler expresses
•

an amazingly simple philosophy
that-negates the worth of responsibility (for students and faculty)
when that word impinges on freedom. The main task of the teacher is to “free the minds of the
young, so that they can continue
the same task beyond what he
himself can imagine,” he argues.
This is Fiedlerized progress.

Once stated, the iconoclastic
professor’s thesis exposes him to

attack from all dimensions of the
political spectrum, not merely
traditionalists who mourned the
passing of the first McCarthy era.
Dr. Fiedler quite shrewdly anticipates a torrent of criticism
by lashing out at ‘repressive interests,’ plus the courts and cops
whom they largely control, to
whom a free faculty seems always
on the verge of going over to the
enemy; i. e., the young.”
Then “there are the young
to whom the
themselves
much-vaunted ‘academic freedom’
of their teaqhers seems only . . .
a cover-up for their subserviance
to the . . . old,” Students, he
admits, can be on the side of the
free profesor more easily than his

quite correctly—-forgotten

subject matter is at best optional,

cases

■

much for institutionalized educa-

bon.

A romantic with an intense hatred of educational authority, the
author declares education itself
the “essential restriction of freedom.” Enslaved by laws, truant
officers, parents, peers and custom, Americans are molded by a
system of “blackmail by grades,”
disciplinary regulations and petty
decrees—totally unconnected to
the laws of the larger community,
into what current society deems
useful citizens.
The teacher does not escape;
he is a “prisoner of the closed
world he presumably guards,” relegated to perform the duties of
“jailer or cop, who notoriously
resembles his charges,” Once he
accepts this system, a teacher
fails in his ultimate responsibility
—to be free—open to “any truth,
however misguided”—and to free
his students.
Notwithstanding his formidable
but conquerable enemies, Dr.
Fiedler will pursue his crusade
for freedom—not to be confused
with that of the Kiwanis Club—to, if not the ends of the earth,
the ends of our campus. He has
witnessed the emergence of miniscule particles of freedom, but
many years of missionary activity
remain before the heathen are
converted.
If Dr. Fiedler’s successes are
postponed as often as his trial,
students had better resign themselves to decades of totalitarian
education.

equal time for fifteen minority
candidates.”
“We should have a system of
autonomous and permanent registration throughout this nation,
and finally, we must change the
process by which presidential candidates are nominated. We ought
to make certain that delegates are
elected on a democratic basis and
be elected in the same year as
the convention.
“The cost of a nationwide primary is exhorbitant and it might
best play into the hands of those
demagogues best able to control
the elevision exposure of their
candidate.”

“I think we have an obligation
to our country and our children
to speak up and take part in the
politics of the United States. I
hope every individual will meet
his great responsibility and speak
up in behalf of this great republic.”

Theodore Sorenson, in an address Monday to an enthusiastic
audience in the Haas, Lounge,
urged his listeners to participate
in the political system.

Mr. Sorenson lashed deeply
into the supporters of George
Wallace, accusing them of illiteracy and ridiculing them. Spiro
Agnew did not escape unscathed
either—Mr. Sorenson commented
that he “gags every time he
thinks of a President Agnew.”

On-campus recruitment
During the questioning period
following his address, Mr. Sorenson was asked: “Is on-campus recruitment by military and private
personnel a threat to academic

Turning to the contemporary
political scene and the aftermath

of the election, he indicated: “The
Democratic Party is in serious
trouble. It has lost the governorship of every large Northern state
except New Jersey.”

'Excellent organization'
“The Republican Party, more
through excellent organization
than the personality of its standard-bearer, has succeeded this
year.”
“Had Robert Kennedy lived, he
would have been nominated and
elected. Had Lyndon B, Johnson
run, he would not have been
elected. Rockefeller, had he run,
would have defeated Humphrey
by a larger margin than Nixon
and also could have beaten either
McCarthy or McGovern.”
The “new politics” and their
relation to the “old” was also covered by Mr. Sorenson: “The old
politics and the old politicians are
still alive. The new politics is not
that new, the emphasis on mass
participation dating back to Jack
Kennedy’s races for Congress and
the Senate. A liberal-conservative
alignment is not part of the new
politics. Neither is a weak Presidency, this not being a day for
Three elements
He feels that this new political
movement must contain three
specific elements. “The first”, he
said, “is participation—mass participation in the decsion-making
of politics.”
“It must be an issue-oriented

ideas. Vietnam, the largest issue
of our time, was totally ignored
by one candidate, largely ignored

He continued: “It

must bring

about reform and peaceful revolution. We are operating with a
dangerously outmoded Electoral
College. We’re operating with a
foreign policy suited to a cold
war against the monolithic Communist world of ten years ago. We
are operating with policies against
China, Germany and others with
the power to wreck the world,
but not to reconcile this small
planet.
“At home we still have a welfare program from the 30’s which
encourages unemployment. We
are operating with a policy towards our urban areas that has
permitted our cities to become
slum areas. Therefore, we have
to change the whole fabric of
American politics or have it fall
down around us.”
To accomplish this goal, Mr.
Sorenson outlined the steps he
thinks must be taken to improve

tionships with its people.

Direct election
“We should have direct election
of the President. If we can’t do
that, we should abolish the Electoral College.”

“We should reform our campaign finance laws. We’ve got to
find ways to make campaigns less
expensive so politics does not become the province of the wealthy
few. \Ve also must arrange de-

freedom?”
“I’m not sure it is a question of
academic freedom and I think that
in barring these recruiters from
this campus, you can be hurting
the academic freedoms of those
students needing jobs after graduation,” he answered.
“The question is not whether
Dow should be allowed on campus, but whether the Vietnamese
and the Venezuelans have the
right to live,” a student asserted.
Mr. Sorenson replied: “All
people have the right to live, but
if a student’s interests lies in that
particular field, we shouldn’t stop
him from working for Dow.”
A question on Chigago Mayor
Richard Daley’s tactics at the
Democratic convention brought
this response from Mr. Sorenson:
“I think what happened in Chicago is more important than
Mayor Daley, I don’t think there
is enough money in the police
forces to attract the best kind
of individuals.”

'Draft is outmoded'

Replying to a question on the
draft and the granting of the vote
to 18-year olds, he said: “I think
it’s very clear that our present
must
changed. I would favor a fair
and impartial system which exposes a young man only once.”
“I’m in favor of the 18-year-old
vote and have supported it in the
past. The question is whether 18,
19, or 20 year-olds should be included with infants and aliens in
excluding them from the vote.
I feel that there is no diferenee
between a youth of 18 and one of
21 and they therefore should have
the vote.”

The Student Coordinating Council Monday evening passed a resolution setting up an Athletic
Review Board consisting of 'all
students who have shown interest
in serving on a committee dealing with athletics.
Student Association Vice President Penny Bergman, who proposed the resolution, announced
that the board would be permanent with specific duties. These
duties would be;
To recommend to the Student Coordinating Council and
the Polity a general policy guiding allocation of athletic fee
funds and to recommend the athletics fee per semester;
To submit a breakdown of
the general athletics budget to
the Student Coordinating Council.
This budget will specifically propose how atheltics fees should be

Activities fees
A proposal concerning the activities fee assessment for parttime students was offered by the
Student Coordinating Council
Committee for Waiving Activities
Fees. Marion Milrod, member of
that committee, termed the pre-

sent system unfair.
According to the committee’s
statement, students now taking
or less credit hours pay no
fee but benefit from fees paid by
others. Students taking between
five and 11 hours pay the same
amount as full-time students taking rpore than 12 credits.
The Coordinating Council adopted the committee’s proposal
that “part-time students taking up
to and including 11 hours pay the
student activities fee at the rate
of $1.75 per credit beginning January 1969." The Council’s action
will not change the now standing
fee of $20.00 for full-time students.
Barbara Emilson, Student Affairs coordinator, noted the Food
for Nigeria/Biafra campaign being run on this campus through
joint efforts of the Student Coordinating Council, the Inter-Residence Council and the religious
organizations on campus. She proposed the Coordinating Council

She amended her resolution so
that the Council merely endorsed
the Nigeria/Biafra campaign. The
question of the donation was
placed on the Polity agenda.

Student Rights Coordinator
Fred Hollander proposed; that
each full-time day student be
given a card stating his rights if
arrested and giving a number to

needed. Mr. Hollander explained
that there will be a 24-hour answering service. A corps of people will be in contact with this
answering service to come to the
aid of any student in police custody.

The Coordinating Council extended recognition to three new
organizations. They are: the
Black Student Association, the
Student Art Board and Group for

Here’s a killer,” read a letter
from a girl at the University of
Wisconsin. “Jeanne Dixon predicted that three girls would be
raped and decapitated by a runaway mental patient. We all have
the willies here.”
It is evident that Jeanne Dixon
has been very busy lately because
modifications of the same story
have swept the girls’ dormitories
at the State University of Buffalo
and those of at least three other
campuses across the state.
Rumors here this week told of

a pathogenic killer who was to
have escaped from a Rochester
mental hospital and was coming
to strangle 20 girls at a state university whose name began with

�action line
Have a problem? Need help? Do you find it impossible to untangle the University
bureaucracy? Or understand why a particular regulation exists? Or have a better way
of handling a situation? In cooperation with the Office of Student Affairs and Services,
The Spectrum'sponsors Action Line, a weekly reader service, column. Through Action
Line, individual students can get answers to pussling questions, find out where and why
University decisions are made, and get action when change is needed.
Just dial 831-5000 for individual attention. The Office of Student Affairs and
Services will investigate all questions, all complaints, and answer them individually.
Action Line will include questions and replies of general interest which appear to be
pertinent to the student body. The name of the individual originating the inquiry is
kept confidential under all circumstances.

Make a note of the number:

Q.: The bus schedule

831-5000 for Action Line.

from Allenhurst has been changed, but

there is still the old bus schedule listed on the Norton Hall bulletin
board. Why can't there be a current schedule listed?
A.: Any schedule listed on a bulletin board should be up-to-date,
and the old bus schedule has by now been replaced with a more current listing. The Transportation Office sent Norton Hall a copy of
the revised schedule when the changes were made but it was retained at the information desk, where most inquiries are directed.

Hereafter, additional copies will be made available to Norton Hall
for sufficient and appropriate distribution.

Q.; Is there some place on campus where a student who turns 18
can register for the draft?
A • F«r the convenience of the students, a member of the staff
of Admissions and Records has been authorized to register students
for tne drait. interested students should go to the front counter of the
Office of Admissions and Records, in Hayes B, for this service.
Q.; Can the University provide a typing; room, equipped with
typewriters, for students to type term papers, etc?
A.: The staff at Norton Hall have periodically explored the possibility of offering this service, but each time have found that neither
space nor budget permit this additional facility. Barbara Gmilson, coordinator of student services for the Student Association, stated that
this service is definitely being programmed for the new campus, but
in the meantime is investigating the practicality of offering such a
service for students somewhere on campus. She has already submitted
a budget request of $500 to the Student Association to cover initial
equipment and operational costs.
Q.; On how many semesters are graduation honors, ie„ Summa
Cum Laude, Magna Cum Laude, etc., based?
A.: Awards for mid-year graduates are figured on the full eight
semester program, but awards for June graduates are based on seven
semesters. The June class is much larger and faculty are not as
prompt in reporting final grades at that time of year, in spite of a
campus rule that grades must be turned in within three days of the
final exam. It is, therefore, more expedient to develop the honor lists
on the seven semester averages at that time.

Q.: Is there anything the library staff is planning to do to reduce the excess noise resulting from students talking in the library
study areas?
A.: This is a perennial problem with which the library staff attempts to cope. Experience dictates that the staff cannot, and should
not, put itself in the place of a police force. Student cooperation is
the basic ingredient. William B. Ernst, associate director of University Libraries, would like to enlist student help in arriving at a satisfactory solution, or even a partial answer, to this problem. Any student, or group of students, who would like to work with Mr. Ernst
on this should call him at 831-2430.
Q.; How is the student organization empowered to impose taxes
such as the athletic and activities fees on us, and what furnishes executive backing to their mandates?
A.: Executive backing is furnished by the Constitution and By
Laws of the Student Association. Article II, Part 3, of this constitution
reads: “The Polity and/or the Student Coordinating Council shall have
the power to assess an annual student activities fee.” The athletic
fee was recently approved in a referendum, sponsored by the Student
Association, on Oct. 9, 1968, with 2556 students voting “yes” and 561
students voting “no,”
Note: Will the student who wrote in a question regarding a psychology course please call Action Line at 831-5000. Not only is additional information desired, but questions are not investigated unless
the full name of the inquirer is known.

Foreign student emphasizes
India’s educational progress.
by

...

Mr. Jain believes that the
article, written by Harim A.
Tyabji, “does not reflect the
maturity to relate opinion to
experience.”
Born in the northern part of
India, Mr. Jain attended school
in the eastern part of the country. He had an opportunity to
travel with his fellow students to
the big cities of the south and
south-west of India, and based
on his experiences, he feels it is
very difficult to generalize about
the educational system, living
conditions, etc., for the country
as a whole.
Like the United States, there
are differences between the south
and north, east and west of India. Different parts of the country have different educational and
examination systems, according
to their needs and requirements.

Progress being made
The ills of the educational system, so vividly portrayed by Mr.
Tyabji are indeed undergoing
change and progress is being
made, Mr. Jain believes. There
are certainly a few colleges which
have monthly exams, a few colleges which have semester exams,
and most have final exams. These
count more than the periodical
exams.
“I do not find it necessary to
adopt any one oarfirular «vstem,
but at the inception stage, we
would like to introduce only
those aspects which are in the
vast interest of our p e o p 1 e,”
states Mr. Jain. “No one would
deny the fact that modifications
and improvements along these
lines are currently being initi-

ated.”
“There has been considerable
progress in primary education
since the attainment of independence (1947). Under article 45 of
the constitution, the state is re-

about 35% of
the children in the age group of
6-11 years were in schools. The
percentage rose to 79.8% at the
end of the third Five Year Plan
(1966-67).

“Enrollment in the universities
and colleges has increased. The
total enrollment in the universities and colleges during 1964-65
was 1.528 million as opposed to
1.385 million during 1963-64—a
yearly increase of 10.32%.
Mr. Jain is not the only one
who thinks that the Indian educational system is improving. In
a recent letter to the editor of
The Spectrum in response to the
same article, S. K. Sanyal and
M. R. Saha stated: “If the educational planners of India are all
complete failures, how can hundreds of Indian students come to
the U. S. A. every year? More
than 80% of these students come
out successful in their academic
programs—some of them with
brilliant results.”
As for social life in India, Mr.
Jain states: “We have our own
marriage system which has
proved successful. In India, the
initial step is made by the parents, and love follows rather than
precedes mamage. In some parts
of India, girls do go out with
their boyfriends before marriage,
but not without the consent of
their parents.”

India still growing

According to Mr. Tyabji, there

Mr. Jain remarks: “Culturally,
India has been known for the last
2000 years, and as a nation, it
has certainly progressed in the
last 20 years. We cannot allow
the pessimism of the past to overshadow the optimism we have for
our future.”

"The Hems we produce are a direct

sign hangs above the heads of nine
uniformed workers who operate the
Hardman Bakery from 7 a.m. to 7:30
p.m. Manager Dewey Bush runs the
bakery to follow this motto. An energetic, competent young man, he oversees the production of baked goods to
be sent to Goodyear, Tower, Norton
Halls, the Faculty Club ("I assure you
they get the same stuff"), the interim
campus, the campus vending machines
and the State University College at
Buffalo vending machines.

The advantages of having a centrally
located bakery is shown by the consistency of the quality of the products, a
quality that can be attested to by more
than one student who has said: "The
baked goods on this campus are the

one food service customer: "Tell them

One problem of the bakery's relationship with the library is that Harriman's ' personnel has had to protest

�Wrestling loses hold

as racing wins fans
by Jay Schreiber
Spectrum Staff Reporter

It was 8 p.m., a half hour before starting time, and the

empty arena had just sprung a leak in its lower right corner.
About 12 people had just filed in through an entrance to

view the Friday night professional wrestling show. It was
the beginning of a trickling immigration into Buffalo’s
Memorial Auditorium that would fill 800 out of a possible
11.000 seats.
The scene was perfect for a piece of white composition

contrived and artificial; funny,
gro.esque, tumbling clowns for
the most part. It was a theatrical
production of sports with an eye
towards simplicity. Wrestling had
its special brand of violence—heroes and villians in a low vulgar comedy that always worked
in a nice, predictable manner.
Just eight years ago, ii brought
29,000 people to Wrigley Field in
Chicago to see Buddy Rogers defend his title. In New York City
alone, three different arenas sponsored regularly-slated professional
wrestling shows.
Yeah—it was phony. Only little
kids took it seriously enough to
practice claw holds, double nelsons, or whatever in someone’s
living room when no one else was
home. But two or. three nights a
week there was mass media hysteria like “Bedlam from Boston,”
and enough people tuned in to
maintain these shows as lucrative
sponsor slits. It never became a
goal for American children with
an eye for future security, but
lots of professional wrestlers were
then making lots of money.
ling?

The slow decline

That was eight years ago. Since
then, professional wrestling has
taken a nice little slide that has
left it ready to be buried and forgotten, save for in the biggest
metropolises of the land, where
it stands on a precariously thin
dollar floor.
“Nobdldy can understand it—if
it’s the wrestlers or what,” said

the old lady at, the concession
stand. “The only people who come
now arclthe old regulars—most
of ’em kpow each other. There
used to be more young kids, now
they have all these special night's,
but no one comes." She was mix-

ing a huge jar of mustard. Her
eyes sparkled. “I used to like the
excitement, all the big crowds,
you

know,”

This particular night there was
a four-for-one special—four kids
under 18 would be admitted for
the price of one. Vet the lobby in
the Auditorium had only the old

aged, stooping men in
black coats, walking slowly and
props:

with their heads down,
jingling coins in their pockets.
A few had the appearance of
those who drive Buffalo's endless
number of small pick-up trucks—their faces narrowly focused.
Sold 23 programs
A fat young man "Was selling
programs for $.25 in the front of
the Terrace St entrance. Each
time someone bought the' four
page glossy sheet, he marked a

I’d say. The kids used to come,
lots of younger people—under 30.
I used to clear $50.00 a night
then.”

An old man walked up to the
table and bought a program.
“Thanks, kid,” he muttered in
quasi Frank Nitti tones, and
walked away.

There was a popular rock song
two years ago called “Friday on
My Mind.” It went like this: kid
trapped by school and work and
old man all week, it’s Friday
night and liberation time. Wheels
baby. And a chick. Put the shift
in drive and adolescence explodes
into sure manhood.

cigarettes, eyes searching for
prey. Bored expressions, but
there’s a Mustang up ahead—gun

screams delightedly; the guys
laugh.

The white middle-class is a
little more affluent and the automobile has become the center object of a new large sub-culture
the 17-ycar-old kids who fix up
their hard-purchased used car;
the 30-year-old father buying his
new car, not for practical economy, but because it goes. These
people who have found cars, the
art of racing cars, better suited
for their present-day catharsis of
violence and frustration. The
arena of Ihe car is a little closer
—

to reality than-profcssional wrestling—you're a participant in your
theater, not some spectator.

Indeed, this subculture has
created a sense of identification
strong enough to allow the creation of new spectator sports.
Stock car racing is now a weekend institution in the south, and
its tentacles of influence are ex
tending across most of the nation.
They run the scale from the Indianapolis 500 and its crowd of
half-million, down to local drag
strips in which everyone races his
own car. Car racing has become
the most popular pastime in America.
And what of the remnants of

They yell again, in knowing
safety, winning a victory that the
outside world could never give

seriously. There’s a lot of Wallace in their reaction forms, for

the violence is orchestrated—they
know when the impact is to come
and exactly when to respond with
their yells. It’s all very easy.
Even when the referee is in-

variably knocked to the canvas,
the crowd cheers wildly. This isn’t
a denial of law and order, but a
flouting of authority—the kind
these people feel meddles unfairly in their private lives and enjoyment.

The crowd has a Roman gladiator complex. Up and down with
the thumbs. Their early favorite
is

Li’l Abner, who beats the
Masked Marvel—of which there
are more in existence than there

escort the unpopular loser to the

dressing room. In doing so, they
pass through a hostile crowd of
three people. The cops look em-

So much is also pathetic. Hans
Schmidt, one of the wrestlers, has
little golf ball knots all over his
back. He moves like a 60 yearold man, which he might be. An
old man sits in the front row
stamping his feet like a wind-up
wooden dummy. The ringside appears scattered with people pointing frantically to the ring, to the
air.

The last match is a tag-team
affair—the evil Gallagher Bros,
vs. Johnny Powers and the great
Antonio Rocea. Rocca is a grunting animal, doing drop kicks that
slowly push the crowd towards
frenzy. The tide changes repeatedly, but the expected built-up
orgasm never occurs. All of a
sudden the match is over—the
bad guys have won.
The crowd files out silently
while Rocca grabs the microphone
and complains of a raw deal. Obviously there is going to be a rematch. Rocca, one suspects, is a
true company man—he’ll stay
with this tottering ship to the
end.

The people stagger into the
cold, empty street in twos and
threes. In privacy they go back
to their homes, or to a bar—the
faithful few of a pastime that has
lost its religious hold.

explained C. Shaw Smith, director of student affairs at Davidson College, North Carolina, to the Eastern Regional block
booking conference.

Hosted by the State Uni-

versity of Buffalo, the confer-

ence included approximately

115 students representing 34

colleges. They assembled at

Leisure Land Inn in Hamburg
from Sunday until 'Tuesday.
Each university attended with
the intention of acquiring information and education, as
well as seeking schools interested in block booking national talent, according to

director of operations, business manager of Norton Hall
and staff advisor to the conference steering committee.

He also indicated that block
booking is an “aspect of student
power” over which the representatives “almost alone influence
and exert control. It is an instance in which student power
can and should be a constructive
force for the development of innovative and creative programs.”
Dr. Siggelkow emphasized their
role by noting: “You must somehow be able to discriminate wisely, to realize what your potential
audience would appreciate. You

devices.
Finally, Mr. Henderson provided a guided tour of Leisure
Land while describing block booking and events earlier in the day.
Block booking, he said, is the
agreement between two or more
schools to sign the same performer or group for two or more
consecutive dates. As an example,
he cited the possibility of five
schools booking Buffy St. Marie
for fall weekend. By cooperating,
each school would be able to book
Buffy St. Marie or any other performer at a lower cost
by
guaranteeing an act five consecutive performances.
The schools must be close to
each other, allowing for a minimum of traveling time. Also,
schools must be willing to schedule- performances for a Thursday

Urging students to keep in
mind that one of the traditional
goals of college is to transmit
culture, he posed the question:

"What will' you contribute in
your important selective role
that will help the college educated individual go on demanding
the kind of esthetic and intellectual satisfaction that should be
enjoyed and experienced in college?”

The excursion through Leisure

where a number pf delegates

conversation freely flowed until
dinner was served.
Overheard in one group was a

"Do you think we can book the

“With our budget? Maybe we

Dinner was served in the ball

sion of Moliere's “Les Femmes
Savanles." He is the director of
the “Tartuffe” production.
“Le Tartuffe” is Moliere’s carefully constructed commentary on
his values of life. He indicates
the hypocritical piety of the bourgeois during the reign of Louis
XIV. Moliere’s use of satire is entertaining as well as provocative.

Mandolin, guitar, flute, tambourine, and drums (“funky

vocal. A backswamp version of

more than anything else carries
the music back to the swamps.

“The Fifth Horseman is Fear’
came very close.
Much in the manner of “The
Pawnbroker” or “The War
Game,” the screen again conveys
with an all-too-real realism the
despicable condition of mankind.
Director Carlo Ponti exploits
suffering and misery through the
tortured faces and tormented eyes
of his almost still-life characters.
The music of Bach is as integral
a part of the mood and movie as
was Mozart’s piano concerto in
“Elvira Madigan.”
Our protagonist is the memorably portrayed Dr. Braun, a Jew

living in Czechoslovakia and not
yet a victim of the Germans. His
face is old, not just with age but
with the pain of experience.

It is Dr. Braun’s wanderings in
search of two ampules of morphine for a patient which provide
the setting for the movie’s comments on existence.

The solution suicide
This is a movie of depression
and is meant to depress. This effect is extracted not only from
the bleakness, desolation and despair of humanity as it is presented but also from the way out,
the solution, the escape that is
suggested—suicide.

Albert Camus will not rest easy
with this film. There is probably
only one of Camus’ absurd heroes
around—and she is an obscure
character. The girl who talks to
Dr. Braun at the Desolation Bar
seems able to laugh amidst all the
horror found in the room.
But for the others suicide is
the thing, the only thing, ' left.

“The world is too much with us.”
Possibly the most pitiable characters are the girls of the brothel,
left with nothing that is meaningful. They are a dramatic testimony of the destructive workings
of men, society and war.

'Be brave'
On his quest for the morphine,
Dr. Braun visits the brothel. In
this most effective scene he uncovers the body of one of the female suicides, her wrists severely
slashed. As he leaves he sees another of the girls, a pretty blond.
He touchers her yet innocent face
and pleads: “Be brave/’

Ponti allows his camera to exploit one thing of beauty, the female form. But even this soon
becomes abused, loses its aestheticism and is destroyed via suicide.
“The Fifth Horseman” never
reaches the intensity of “The
Pawnbroker," but its message and
statement are different. The film
is at once poignant, profound,
provoking.

DAZZLING AND TO THE POINT!”

�Marketing at IBM

“You help company presidents
solve their information
handling problems.”
“It's a lot of responsibility. And if you need
help, you always get it,” says Earl Andrews,
"Because your success is the company’s
success.”

Earl earned his B.A. in Political Science
in 1967. Today, he’s a Marketing Representative with IBM, involved in the planning
selling and installation of data processing
systems.

Earl joined IBM because he felt the career
paths were very clearly marked. “You don’t
have to be a technical genius to fit the job.
You get the training. Then on-the-job
experience. Before you know it, you’re out

on your own.”

Works with top management
Earl works mainly with small companies
distribution houses, manufacturers,
printers, warehouses, electrical supply
houses and similar organizations. “I deal
with top management,” he says. “It gives
me a lot of satisfaction to realize that I'm
trained to know what this president or that
vice-president is trying to learn. I help him
solve his information handling problems."
Earl’s experience isn’t unusual at IBM.
There are many marketing and sales representatives who could tell you similar
experiences. And they have many kinds of
academic backgrounds: business, engineering, liberal arts, science.
They not only market data processing equip
ment as Earl does, but also IBM office
products and information records systems.

Many of the more technically inclined are
data processing Systems Engineers.
Check with your placement office
If you're interested in marketing at IBM, ask
your placement office for more information.

The freshmen, led by speedster
Ron Gilliam, proved to be no

scrimmage.
This contest was
much like the Canisius encounter.
The Bulls found themselves up
against a quick, aggressive, and
highly spirited frosh. Utilizing a
full court press most of the time,
the frosh continually exerted
strong pressure on the varsity guards. The Baby Bulls were
also tough off the boards, blocking out well. The spirited contest
even had a brief tussle when Bobby Nowak decided to show what
he thought of errant elbows being
drilled into his chest.
After the freshman scrimmage
Dr. Serfustini expressed his pleasure with the progress his varsity
team has been making: “We’re
progressing good. We’ve been
working hard to improve. The
freshmen gave us a real test out
there. I was satisfied with the
way we played together and the
poise we showed. We’ll continue
to improve because all of the boys
on the team are willing to put
forth the extra effort which is
essential to success.”

Hockey Bulls to open season
against Buff State Saturday
by Richard Baumgarten
Asst. Sports Editor

The champion State University
of Buffalo Hockey Bulls, winners
of the 1967 Finger Lakes Hockey
League pennant, will open their
1968 season Saturday night
against cross-town rival Buffalo
State University College at the
Amherst Recreation Center. Faceoff time is scheduled for 10 p.m.

Rombough, who racked up 38
goals this past season, Billy Tape
and Whipper Watson, the Bulls

'huad that went undefeated (15-0)

Caruso and Terr.v Queenville on the wings. All

There are different opinions as to what constitutes the most important aspect of the game of football. The name of the game could
be defense, offense, execution, passing, running, blocking, quarterbacking

Many professional teams’ players have spent more time in hospitals, training rooms and whirlpool baths than on the field of play.
Invincible Johnny Unitas of the Baltimore Colts is now earning his
“bread” by keeping the bench warm. Dallas Cowboys’ Dan Reeves
is also sticking it out on the bench.

The Chicago Bears will have to “bear” the loss of star runner
Gayle Sayers for the rest of the season. The Cleveland Browns lost
quarterback Frank Ryan and found replacement Bill Nelson. Football
in Washington isn’t as “sunny” without Jurgenson calling signals for
the Redskins.
While Daryle Lamonica was recovering, “Old Stuff”
Blanda showed that he still had his old stuff for the Oakland
Don Trull returned to the Houston Oilers in the shadow
Beathard. Then Beathard was in the shadow of the bench,
healthy Trull called the signals.

two

And what reason can Green Bay, the Super Bowl champions for
years, have for dropping so many games this season?

InjurmsrmS course.
Right in our own back yard there is a prime example—the Buffalo Bills. If anyone with a crystal ball could have foreseen the 1968
season, owner Ralph Wilson would have disbanded the team for a
year. So many fans would give anything, even their old “Put in Lamonica” signs, to have Jack Kemp back calling the shots.

When first string quarterback Dan “Rookie” Darragh started
coming around in the signal department, somebody up there didn’t
feel he should remain healthy. So Dan was given several maladies to
contend with. Opportunity knocks once, so second-string quarterback
Kay Stephenson answered the call after Tom Flores was bitten by the
injury bug.
But all good things must come to an end resulting in more “doctoring" up in the quarterback position, namely Stephenson. Enter
rookie Darragh again—sounds like a re-run. Maybe Ed Rutkowski,
the so-called disaster quarterback, will get to show more of his talents with this disaster team.
The Buffalo Bills are fast becoming familiar with medicine. However, in case there is that familiar announcement: “Is there a doctor
in the house?” during Sunday’s San Diego-Buffalo game, please help
them out. After all, you can bill them later or, with a lot of hope,

wait until next year.

The State University of Buffalo
rugby team closed out its 1968
fall season by defeating St. Cath
arines of Ontario, 6-5, Saturday
afternoon, before a bone-chilled
crowd of about 25.
The low-scoring game was played in about two inches of rain,
and according to fullback Andy
Smith, the weather was so cold
that “nobody could move.”

But the defenseman who has attracted the most notice is Bob
Goody, a recruit from Kitchener,
Ont, “He’s the best defenseman
we’ve ever had, by far,” said

Flaster referring to Goody. “He’s
a tremendous hockey player.”

Plaster then switched the topic
to goal-tending: “We’ve got the
greateSt depth we’ve ever had at
Buffalo. Mike Dunn, our goalie
from Ft. Erie, is an absolutely
fabulous goalie. Quickest big guy
I’ve ever seen. The fans will see
why he made all-league OHA.
He’s going to make a lot of fantastic saves this year.”

i

beat Ontario team

The Buffalo defense, like the
forward lines, is basically a veteran unit. Bill DeFoe, a two-year
performer from St. Catherine’s
returns along with Jimmy Miller
to man key spots in the Bulls’ defense, Brian Boyer, a transferee
from Canton; Paul Kubiak, and
Bob Bundy add further depth to
the situation.

Dullea booted a 30-yard penalty
kick squarely between the uprights for a 3-0 Bull lead. There
was no more scoring in the first
half, although Buffalo kept St.
Catharines penned in its own
zone for most of the playing time.
Buffalo upped its lead to 6-0
midway in the second half when
winger Joe Nolly recovered a
fumble in the St. Catharines' end
zone. The play was set up by a

vicious tackle on the St

With about four minutes left in
the game, St. Catharines put together one of its few successful
offensive rushes. The Wasps roared down the field and scored
when Jeff Samuels fell on the
ball in the Buffalo end zone.

St. Catharines’ two-point conversion kick was good and the
Wasps pulled to within one point
at 6-5. But the Buffalo defense
stiffened and the Canadians never did muster another offensive

The victory over St. Catharines
gave the Bull “rugbymen" a final
team record of 5-2. The Buffalo
rugby squad will next compete
in the Eastern Rugby Union Tournament scheduled for Nov. 30 in

Gamma Phi Fraternity, one of the leading organizations
at the State University of Buffalo, first appeared in 1959
when the brothers of Kappa Sigma Kappa, a national fraternity, decided to form their own local.
Among the goals which Gamma
Phi stresses are academic achievement and the encouragement of
high professional standards. It also encourages all its members to
enjoy an active, healthy social
life.
Athletics also play an important part in the fraternity’s considerations and, although not as
large as some of the national
fraternities at Buffalo, they nevertheless manage to make a respectable showing in many of the
intramural sports.
Gamma Phi takes an active part
in supporting activities and events
of the University, as well as
sponsoring those of their own.
One of the annual events run by
Gamma Phi is the Greek Olympiad in which all campus organiations are invited to compete in
Olympic events for individual and

The article had been written

The newspaper rejected unequivocally any interference in
its operation. It called for the
University to defend the Cardinal:
“The Cardinal has chosen to resist in every way, legally and

of this group. For if the Cardinal
dies at the hobnail boot of the
Regents, the blood will be on

Members of the staff signed

Analysis of the corporate interests underlying the state and
University power structure was
made. University President Harrington was called “Wisconsin’s

What now?

‘The bill is due now’

The athletic fee is mandatory—and student-controlled.
An Athletic Review Board has been established—hopetully
to begin a thorough re-evaluation of the University’s athletic
programs. The integrity of the Sub Board has been endorsed
by the recent referendum—student voters can be responsible and sane.
Like a grumpy daddy who has been criticized or questioned by a cantankerous son for the first time, the Athletic
Department is on the defensive. We don’t see the reason
for getting so uptight. There should be none—if it is the
students’ interests which are really being considered. If the
Athletic Department would begin to cooperate fully in a
re-examination and reevaluation of its programs, we’d all be
better off. In the meantime, we are suspicious and remain
on the offensive.
A study of University’s athletic programs should include
an examination of intramural, as well as the intercollegiate
sports.
Furthermore, there’s no reason why mechanism could
not be found to integrate these two different kinds of athletic
participation.
A recent issue of Moderator has made some worthwhile
suggestions for scaling down an intercollegiate program:
“Intercollegiate competition should be confined to an
all-day two-school battle between winning intramural teams
in all sports. That is, the winning intramural team from
within each college during each season would play the top
intramural team, sport for sport, at another college. The
games could be built into one big weekend bash each season.
Championships would thus be bi-lateral rather than allconference, cutting down on expenses and emphasizing allseason intramural competition leading up to the big weekend.
“Put all the cards on the table. Make the football team
an official professional club functioning the way the AAA
minor leagues do for baseball. The team could bear the
name of the University but the players would not be enrolled in the school unless they were students in the offseason and met the regular entrance and course requirements as did other students. The players would be recruited
ditectly out of high school the way the pros now recruit
players out of college. Academic ability and professional athletic ability would thus be strictly separated.
“Develop an athletic program built around sports which
cost little to support, such as six-man club football. Gear it
to student response, with student fees voted to athletics
being an index of student desire for an expanded athletics
program. Relate sports in every way possible to the purposes
of higher education and the ethos of the college.
“Keep alumni well-informed of club athletic activity on
campus, emphasizing the way the sports are integrated with
the idea of the institution. Dramatize lesser-known sports.
“Involve athletic coaches in the curriculum: Have them
teach courses on amateurism, the history of sports, and the
relationship between athletic skills and other professional
skills.
“See if the educational goals of the university are reflected in the way they are implemented in the athletic
program. If they are not, develop an articulation of an appropriate policy and lobby for its adoption. In general, lobby
for an inexpensive, diversified, student-oriented athletic pro-

Anarchists, don’t be fooled: The lunch was joyously unstructured, as was the discussion, but most of the conversation revolved around structure—University structure, and its
problems. It was a most successful (if not the first) Eat-in for
Education.

Listeners, as well as talkers, who are disturbed, interested, involved or fed-up with their University routine will
find the Tuesday lunches refreshing as well as filling.
There are a lot of hungry people.

Mr. A1 Brownstein’s committee, to study institution-'

Rap with ollie
by

Oliver D. Townes

The Athletic Department needs more Federal
Reserve notes. HAH! Well, if they aren’t informed,
they should know that every department on campus, let alone every individual in this, country,
needs more too. If Mr. Peellc asked me my views
on more money, I would ask him if some underprivileged high school senior—who maybe graduated
from high school and would like to go to college,
but has no financial hope to make the long climb

for the degree—which is definitely needed in this
jungle of a financial country—needs the Reserve
notes more than the Athletic Department does. If
he tolls me yes, the department does need it more,
I will ask him to break it down to me in every detail, so I could at least see where my money is
going.

I don't see why the Athletic Department needs
$100,000 per year from student fees. How much
docs it cost to keep sports going? How much does
it cost for some overweight, muscle-bound football
or basketball player to stay overnight in one of
those expensive, modern, well-kept, clean, air-conditioned hotel or motel rooms?
How much does it cost for a bus load of roughneck, hard hitting, stomach-felling football players
to cat one pound of smooth smelling, soft, sizzling,
sweet-sliding steaks, smothered with onions and surrounded by peas, potatoes and gravy?
bet’s face it. If it were a choice of eliminating
Norton Hall or the Athletic Building, I would bet
one million Federal Reserve Notes to a one-inch
hole in a doughnut that I know', beyond a shadow
of a doubt with a rope around my neck, which
choice the majority of students would vote for. They
would vote to eliminate the Athletic Building.
1 get nothing «out of athletic teams winning
a game. I would feel more proud of the State University of Buffalo if it was known as one of the
most intellectual colleges in the country rather than
the champion of some sport.
I would rather see 100 underprivileged people
get a chance to get their computers filled with
knowledge and their eyes opened tc the world
around them, than to sec 3.000 trophies in the University Hall of Athletic Fame. We arc living in a
world of competitive minds which are stimulated
by the forces of money and fame-grabbers. Everyone should have a decent chance to go into the
"life" ballgame fully equipped. Just like the football player, everyone needs a helmet and hip pads
1 would rather see a student try and tackle a
problem which affects the problems of the "life
ballgame than to see a tremendous jump pass which
would save a championship football game If we

future peaceful environment and existence than a

more students going to hear a speaker on one of
our present world problems than a free Athletic

Club beer blast.
The only reason some students go for the fee is
because it might save them a little money in the
long run by getting into athletic events.
Let s think more of our money. Let it work more
for the betterment of our “life” ballgame instead of
a football game.

Calls for academic reforms
To the editor:

The forthcoming meeting of the Faculty Senate
concerning the question of a revised course load can
be a dramatic turning point for this University.
At present we are approaching the point when
the Administration, along with the individual departments, will determine the student’s entire
course load. Even now, most freshmen are taking
the same courses—all designed to satisfy the rigid
B/D requirements that are necessary to graduate.
In its next meeting, the Faculty Senate will have
the opportunity to end some of these archaic requirements, giving students greater flexibility in
their choice of courses.
A burdensome five-course load is the present
standard schedule at the University. The large
amount of work required by each of these courses
usually makes it impossible for the student to gain
a great deal from any one of them. The establishment of a four-course load will enable him to dedicate more time and energy to those that arc of
special interest.
Only when the demanding B/D requirements
are abolished, and when the student can afford to
spend a great deal of time on the courses that in
terest him the most, can he truthfully have the op. . become all he is capable of beportunity to
ing.” Let us take a step in that direction this month
“

Corrections
The following errors appeared in the Nov. 8 issue of The Spectrum;
Terry Keegan was incorrectly identified as a
graduate student on page four. He is an undergraduate student in the Philosophy Department.
The preview for the reading by Walter Lowenfels, on page 13, incorrectly implied that Anonym
Magazine is published by Intrepid Press. Intrepid
Press, publishers of Mr. Lowenfels' works, co-sponsored the reading.

State University of New York at Buffalo

The Student Polity will meet in special
session today to discuss the proposals of
the Faculty Senate Committee on
Educational Planning and Policy for
curricula and grading reforms.

“There are many jittery, conservative
faculty members around who would love to
use the expression of a lack of student
interest in the proposals as an excuse for

The proposals include the institution
of a four-course load, revisions in the degree
requirements, and the introduction of
alternative systems of grading.

He emphasized that if the Faculty
Senate fails to accept Student Polity
recommendations or revisions on the
proposals, “students are going to be disenchanted with a system where the faculty
gets the final say.”

The meeting, to be held at 3 p.m. in the
Haas Lounge, Norton Hall, was called by
Student Association President Richard
Schwab “to give students a chance to learn
what the four-course load and the other
academic proposals mean to them.”
“The committee’s proposals are very
broad and many of the specifics have to be
spelled out,” he added.
Some of the points which Mr. Schwab
suggests need clarification include:

“What happens to the present two-,
four-, five- and six-hour course in the
*four-course load’?”

“Will scheduling change7”

•

“Will the proposal

Attending today’s meeting will be
several members of the committee which
formulated the proposals: C. L. Barber,
Faculty of Arts and Letters; Edgar Z.
Friedenberg, Faculty of Educational
Studies, and Lewis Perry, Faculty of Social
Sciences and Administration.

Also attending will be Derek Sanders
of the curriculum committee of the Faculty
of Social Sciences and Administration
and Unversity College, and a representative
from the Faculty of Engineering and
Applied Sciences.
“If we change the present proposal in
any way before' it gets to the Faculty
Senate, it probably will have an effect on

turning them down.”

Y

Meanwhile, an ad hoc committee of the
Student Association is circulating a
petition beginning today to gain further
support for the proposals.
A spokesman for the group, Howard
Friedman, maintained: “It is necessary to
make known the views of concerned
students on issues which directly affect
their educational experience.
&gt;&gt;

The petition reads: “We, the
undersigned students, hereby support the
proposals for academic reform endorsed by
the Executive Committee of the Faculty

Senate. In addition, we urge that these
measures be implemented no later than the
fall semester, 1969, and that at that time,
they should apply to all undergraduate
students.”

When informed of the petition campaign, Mr. Schwab noted that the petition
is “another important means of pressuring
the Faculty Senate to act.”
A second Polity meeting, where
resotions presented today on the academic
reforms will be voted on, has been
scheduled for Nov. 20.

The results of the Polity meetings, and
the petition will be presented to the
Faculty Senate Dec. 4 when it begins debate
on the proposals.

It was revealed that in most
cases the process of securing bail

could be undertaken without the

necessity of an attorney. Mr. Hollander indicated that a local bail
bondsman was willing to handle
student needs under such a service. In minor offenses some students have been released on recognizance which requires the signature of a court judge. Such
cases would not require a deposit
of money tor bail. In cases where
a deposit was required for re-

lease, it was the consensus of
those attending the meeting that
Student Association funds could
be lent to the student under arrest at a minimum risk.
He continued: “It won’t be an
expensive thing; the largest expenditure in the program would

be in manpower and the least in
money.”

“I saw many signs in this campaign.
Some of them were not friendly and some
were very friendly. But the one that
touched me most was one that I saw in
Deshler, Ohio, at the end of a long day of
whistle-stopping. A young teenager held
up a sign which read, ‘Bring Us Together.’
And that will be the great objective of
this Administration.”
The words above are from the victory
speech President-elect Richard M. Nixon.
The thought is a noble and vital one in
these difficult days. Whether we approve
or disapprove, Nixon’s the one for at least
four turbulent years. His credentials at
this point are rather dubious,
Nixon is a minority President in every
sense of the word. His popular vote tally
is clearly less than a majority. The Congress is firmly in the hands of the Democratic Party. Nixon’s victory is by no
means a Republican restoration. He is
faced with potential opposition in every

direction.
President-elect Nixon has been in the
public eye for a good many years. For all
his exposure, he remains an anonymous
figure. No one has been able to comment
on his real identity. Nixon’s cold, calculated manner has foiled even the most
astute observers.
The Nixon of today is publicly a far cry
from the Nixon of 1960 and 1962. One can
scarcely forget the dejection etched across
his face after the incredible election of
eight years ago. Also, one can scarcely forget the man who said: “You won’t have
Nixon to kick around any more,” after the
1962 California gubernatorial contest. The
Richard Nixon of today is a more serene,
statesmanlike person. He projects an aura
of confidence which is infinitely reassuring to many Americans. For the sake of
everyone, I hope' that this new image is
not merely an addition to the Nixon repetoire of fascades.
Nixon will inherit the handiwork of an
Administration tremendously top-heavy in

personality. Lyndon Johnson was unmistakably The President during his five-year
tenancy in the White House. His successor
will not have the opportunity to goven
in the same manner. Over the years, Richard Nixon has developed personal animosities which Johnson did not even begin
to approach. Johnson was an eminently
shrewd politician. His triumphs were based
upon his extraordinary skill in the politi-

cal game.
Nixon’s success has been based upon
something far different. His opportunism
and incredible drive have won him his victories, Johnson’s skill in politics served
him well in the Presidency. It enabled him
to ram through some of the most significant social legislation of the century. It
also enabled him to pursue the War. Nixon's abilities will not serve him as well
in the White House. Opportunism will not
impress the Congress nor the American
people. If President Nixon is to succeed,
he must truly become the “new Nixon.”
The old one will simply wallow in the
mire.
Vice President-elect Spiro Agnew will
“assume duties which the Vice President
has never assumed before.” This is the
projected role for one of the least capable
men ever to have assumed the office. Although the new duties have not yet been
outlined, it is possible that Agnew will
have a role in important policy decisions.
This could be a disaster of major proportions. Many commentators have noted that
the office sometimes elevates the man.
They point at Harry Truman and even
Lyndon Johnson. In this case, they are
doing some very wishful thinking. The elevation required would have to be of astronomical dimensions. Agnew is the product of blind luck and the archaic American party system. He gives us all the
more reason to wish Mr. Nixon good
health.

Mr. Schneider's column will assume its
regular position next week.

Thieu has said that South Vietnam and
North Vietnam must be the keystones in
such talks, with the United States and the
Viet Cong’s National Liberation Front taking a back seat.
"Since the United States is conducting
exploratory talks with the North Vietnamese it is uip to them to get North Vietnam to accept,” Lam told newsmen at
Orly Airport when asked about Thieu’s
terms.
Nhan Dan, the official North Vietnamese
Communist newspaper, reiterated its opposition to the Thieu plan and described
it as “a scheme to sabotage” the confer-

UFT asks postponement
WASHNGTON—A U S. Supreme Court
justice has been asked to postpone proceedings against the president of the New
York City teachers union.
Justice John M. Harlan was asked by attorneys for Albert Shanker, president of
the striking United Federation of Teachers, to stay a contempt of court conviction
against Shanker for violating the New
York State Taylor Law for leading the
Shanker’s attorneys contended that the
UFT president was denied a jury trial on
the contempt charge.
The New York Court of Appeals late
last month rejected 3-2 Shanker’s and the
UFT’s request for a jury trial to determine whether they were in contempt of
court for disobeying two orders prohibiting a teachers’ strike in New York City.
The contempt proceedings are scheduled
to begin in New York City before State
Sunreme Court Justice Francis J. Bloustein.

If convicted, Shanker faces a maximum
sentence of 30 days in jail and a $250 fine,

while the 50,000-member UFT could be
fined $10,000 a day and lose its dues checkoff privilege under the Taylor Law, a 14month-old state statute which bars strikes
by public emloyes.

The city opposes any stay in Shanker’s
trial, contending he and the UFT are
from exercising its powers, -during the
continuance of an “illegal strike,”
Ralph P. Katz, lawyer for the UFT, told
Harlan, New York law was “unsettled” on
the right to a jury trial for public employees and corporations, and a Supreme
Court decision was needed to clarify the
issue.

Katz also said there was so much political pressure and publicity surrounding
the teachers’ strike that it was feared
Shanker and UFT could not be assured of
a fair trial without a jury.

possible, the recruiters’ connection wjth these issues.
John Marciano, a committee
member, hopes that the forum
will have far-reaching educational
value. “Too many people have an
image of SDS as a bunch of buffoons running around calling people fascists,” he said. “We’re going to show people that SDS is
doing good, solid work. These
forums should involve other students who are interested and give
them exposure to the ‘open campus,”

Teach-ins

According to the letter, the
forums \yill “take the form of a
teach-in, rather than a formal debate in order to allow interested
members of the University community a greater chance of participation.” If the corporations
accept their invitation SDS will
schedule the teach-ins for a time
prior to the actual recruiting
days. They are especially interested in a response from the Cornell lab, Mr. Marciano said.
Speakers will be announced
after the companies have responded and the dates are set for the
forums. An SDS meeting will be
held tonight to discuss further
plans for the proposed meeting
with recruiters.

Walter ■ Cronkite, the refreshingly credible bossraan of the CBS

New York, Montgomery and Minneapolis was timely and smooth;
the dialogue-analysis of Walter
Cronkite, Dan Rather, Roger

cogent and topical. Moreover, CBS
had the most to say about historical precedent, as well as about
the contemporary American political puzzles.
The dynamic duo of tubeland,
Huntley and Brinkley, were in
control of NBC’s "Election Centrla.” As a special service to latecoming foreign TV listeners or

SDS members
describe Cuba
“I am not an expert, but I
would like to recount simply
what I experienced while in
Cuba.” explained Steven More,
one of 35 national SDS members
who stayed in Cuba for one
month at the invitation of , the
Cuban government.
Mr. Moore, his wife Molly and
Russell Smith, graduate 1' history
student and local SDS member,
recounted their experiences at a
panel discussion Friday in the
Fillmore Room.

The faults of post-revolution
Cuba were the first focus of the
discussion.

sonal contribution to the nation,
he explained.

Middle class
The only truly dissatisfied people are the urban middle class
of the 1950s, who are out of place

in socialist Cuba, Mr. Moore indicated. They are too fashion-oriented, and realize that they now
lack what they once had. These
people realize that their situation
has deteriorated since the revolution.

society.

Male chauvinism, the domination of the male in a family or
a society, still exists in Cuba to
the point where the women are
not free in many places. The government is starting many programs making jobs open to women and allowing the women to
leave the jhome by opening nursery schools for their children. As
well,, a liberal policy of birth control and abortion is being enacted
nationally to liberate women as
well as to avoid overpopulation.

Local criticism
The three national newspapers
lack depth in foreign news reporting, and there is little editorial
independence; both these faults
detract from overall quality, Mr.
Moore explained. However, there
is criticism of local government,
in the press and some Cuban students advocate complete editorial
freedom.
The ration system, abhorrant
to Americans but necessary to Cubans, may be considered a good
thing because rationing assures
an equal distribution of those
things which are available.

Mr. Moore pointed out that Curest of Latin
America in many ways.

ba is ahead of the

For example, the pre-revolution unemployment has disappeared, and presently there is a
labor shortage. The literacy rate,
previously about 35%, is claimed
to be about 97% today. As well,
there is now free medical aid and
medicine to all who need it.
Mr. Moore feels that Cuba is
very different from the rest of
the socialist world. There is a
very high degree of social and
political awareness among the
workers, farmers and students,
unlike the average Soviet or Eastern European citizen. Every Cuban considers himself a revolutionary, and each enjoys his per-

Another point by which Cuba
may be considered unique is the
attempt by the government to reduce the importance of money in
the lives of the average citizen.

By providing free transportation and free meals at work, as
well as low rent housing, combined with pre-revolution high
wages, the government hopes to
decrease the value of money as a
medium of exchange. This would
decrease money-consciousness and
make true communism possible.

Information blackout
Russel Smith, the second speaker, felt that “the United Stales
is totally unaware of the real Cuban experience because of the
imposed information
American
blackout, and as a result many
myths have currency in America
today.”
-

He recounted a long history of
economic and political exploitation, first under the Spanish,
then under the Americans. He described the tremendous corruption in most of the pre-revolutionary Cuban governments, and
illustrated the revolutionary spirit
of Che Guevara with stories of
the insurrections of the 1880s.
Mr. Smith feels that since Cuba
rejects peaceful co-existence, she
is one of the few truly independent nations in the world today
because "peace is more than a

lack of conflict among the great
powers; peace can’t exist for the
third world as long as large countries carry on aggression against
small countries.”

Spectrum

About two hundred students
staged a sit-in Thursday night in
the administration building at
City College of New York to protest the arrest of 175 persons who
had defied police by sheltering
an AWOL soldier.
The soldier, Pvt. William Brakefield of California, had been given sanctuary in the ballroom of
Finley Student Center pn South
Campus at CCNY since Oct. 31.
He had been missing from Ft.
Deens, Mass, since Oct. 2. He is
now free on $1500 bail, charged
with criminal treaspass and resisting arrest.

The police had come on campus
at 1 a.m. to arrest students. The
administration subsequently revoked the charters of CCNY Students for a Democratic Society
and the City College Commune,
the groups that provided the sanctuary. The Dean of Students ac-

cused the vigilants of destroying
furniture and dismntinP rn'"munication lines within the student center. Buell G. Ganagner,
CCNY president, announced his
intention to let the court prosecute “students and non-students
alike.” Charges include criminal
trespass and resisting arrest.

Protests to continue
Students plan to continue their
protests with mass rallies. Five
hundred students met to demand
amnesty for those arrested and
accused Dr. Gallagher of violating
a pledge that he would not call
the police on campus without first
consulting the faculty.
The president denied such a

pledge: “You cannot place this

kind of decision in the hands of

a debating society.”

SDS has owed to resist the revocation of its charter and is considering re-occupying Finley.

This was the third protest demonstration in a week at City. The
previous Monday, students led by
Brakefield protested the presence
of the Dow Chemical Co. on campus by occupying a campus building; nine were arrested.
At that time, two city detectives
entered the ballroom in an attempt to arrest the soldier, but
100 students guarding him formed
a shield until the policemen decided to leave.

Moore, the student
a fine job Thursday in Baird Hall.

The play continued through Sunday.

The show opened with a bit of
freestyle—this is all
the amorphous rage these ’days—which tended to crawl (yuk) a bit.
From that point on, it was excelsior as the audience witnessed
each of the well-versed young performers gradually become all he
is capable of being.
"Oh . . . War” is both a scrapbook of World War I memorabilia
and a commentary on modern
war. The success of the play on
the first count was but partially
shared in the second area.
As a variety show having a
First World War theme, the production was just fine. In addition
to the vintage re-enactments of
human emotio'n through “short
subjects,” the songs and dance
routines made for enjoyable entertainment. Some grand comedy
sketches, most notably those involving double-talk and impressions of the chauvinistic participants rounded out the lighter
facet of the production.
Much more complex was the editorial side of the play. Here the
effects, of both the play per se
and the Program in Theaterls
particular performance bear some
reflection.

mess which is all too slowly concluded (like this sentence, I
guess), much to everyone’s (except the dead’s) relief. Explicit
comment is found outside the
structure—that is, in the lines
themselves—where the concepts
of Evil Necessity and Close One
Eye Man are gently mocked under the guise of a half-hearted
defense.
This was the pudding to which
the Program in Theater added
some plums. The acting was indeed superb, yet this straightforward fulfillment of the intent
of the play’s creator didn’t quite
measure up during the more
subtle battle scenes. It is very
difficult to portray the agonies
of war, mind you: and although
they give it their all the actors
could not convince me that they
weren’t gifted non-combatant coliegiates, as much as I wanted
them to do so.

Photographic plums

The plums comprised what
were listed as “Photographic Effects” and what were seen to be
slides of battle scenes projected
about the stage. While some of
the pictures evoked sober responses to the legalized homicide
of war, others were tinged with
the sensational anti-war sentiment which defies sensitive consideration. The slides had a net
positive effect, all told. Robert
Lieberman merits attention for
his efforts and mettle.
Although the play wasn’t awfully articulate when depicting
the hideous and repulsive character of a world at war, it did
entertain and satisfy the various
and sundry first-nighters—-I know
my reaction and have more than
an inkling of the others’. It was
surprisingly spiffy; some real
good’uns are learning quite a bit

Thousands have been arrested,
hundreds wounded by arms fire

“Despite the brutal behavior
of Mexico’s government against
this popular uprising, the Student Strike Committee has courageously continued to struggle

for their six demands. These are:
The removal of the police chief
and his assistants: the dissolution
of the unconstitutional riot police;
the repeal of article 145 which
gives the government extraordinary powers to jail all opposition
without trial; payment of indemnities to the families of the slain

The Faculty Senate Committee on Educational Planning and
Policy will present its" report to the Faculty Senate Dec. 4. Outlined in
the report which follows are resolutions concerning the four-course program, new degree requirements and new grading system.
Members of the committee are: Chairman C. L. Barber, of the
English Department; Lyle B. Borst, Physics Department; Edgar Z. Friedenberg, Social Foundations; Jacob D. Hyman, Faculty of Law and Jurisprudence; Harry Klein, Student Association; Lewis C. Perry, History
Department; Donald W. Rennie, Physiology Department; Taylor Stoehr,
English Department, and F. Karl Willenbrock, Faculty of Engineering
and Applied Sciences. The report follows:

The resolutions we submit at this
time embody proposals of the University College Curriculum Committee chaired by Dean Welch, and of
the President’s Ad Hoc Committee
on Grading, chaired by Professor
Andreasen. These two groups, both
including students as well as faculty,
worked last year on ways of implementing parts of the Academic Reorganization of the University which
was voted in principle by the Senate
.n the fall of 1966.
Dean Welch’s committee developed detailed proposals for the new
baccalaureate degree requirements
to be administered by University
College and based on a normal fourcourse program; Professor Andreasen’s committee worked out a plan
for optional alternative methods of
grading.
During the first half of last summer, our Committee discussed these
and other proposals in a series of
meetings with members of the six
Faculties concerned with undergraduate education. In the light of these
discussions and our own deliberations, the proposals we received have
been somewhat modified. At a later
date, we shall submit to the Senate
proposals concerning the educational
role of the new colleges, plans to be
developed in collaboration with the
Collegiate Committee. We are confident that the colleges can make
an important contribution within the
open sort of framework provided by
the present resolutions.
The first resolution proposes that
the transition to the new degree requirements and the four-course program take place in September 1969.
The second resolution proposes the
same date for adopting the new grading options. The modification of our
many and various undergraduate programs obviously cannot be done without a great deal of careful planning
and accommodation. And it must be

than four, or more credits. But the
norm must be four credits if the
change is to be real for the students.

A four-course program as a norm
for undergraduates is strongly endorsed by our Committee, primarily
to enable students to work more intensely and coherently, without what
is in many cases an unsatisfactory
fragmentation of time and effort. Average course enrollments would be
reduced; students would have more
time for each course;
With 128 hours required for graduation, going to a four-course program means changing the usual

to find and be guided by their live

Old,
The proposed academic changes
of the Faculty Senate Committee
on Educational Planning and
Policy differ substantially from
the requirements and policies
that are now in effect.
The new grading proposal
would initiate a system of three
types of grading—letter grading,
written descriptions of student
performance and satisfactory-unsatisfactory grading. For the third
alternative, the grade of S would
be used instead of the letters A
through D to earn credit; the
grade of U would earn no credit.
The grading stytem that is currently in effect, as outlined in
the University College catalogue,
follows:
“Grades indicate the quality of
work as follows: A, high distinction; B, superior; C, average; D,
minimum passing; I. incomplete;
F, total failure. The credit hours
indicate the quantity of work
done in a course. A three-hour
course ordinarily meets three
times each week for 50 minutes;
a two-hour course meets twice
each week. A laboratory period of
at least two hours each week is
regarded as the equivalent of one
credit hour.
“Quality points are the weighted evaluation of the grades received; For each credit hour of

The establishment of a fourcourse load system would mean
changing the usual credit for a
course from three to four, since
128 credit hours wpuld still be
required for graduation. A student would then take four courses
that are each worth four credits
per semester. Thus it is unclear
at this point whether the student’s work load, as well as his
course load, would be reduced.

ity points; for each credit hour of
B, three quality points; for each
credit hour of C, two quality
points. One quality point is received for a D and no quality
points for F.
“In courses taken an a pass-fail
basis, students receiving grades
of S may count this credit toward
hours required for the degree;
the quality-point average will be
computed only on (he basis of re-

ter

gular letter-grades (A-F).

done on a University-wide basis. The
third resolution therefore proposes
new arrangethat the transition
ments be the responsibility of the
appropriate committees of the several Faculties, in collaboration with
their departments and Provosts, the
Provosts to report on progress at
the end of this year and again in
the spring of 1970.

!

”

The committee report acknowledges that “there are obviously
special situations where courses
would still be needed carrying
fewer credits than four, or more
credits. But the norm must be
four credits if the change is to be

real for the students.”

The University College catalogue explains the current policy:

“A full-time student in the college usually registers for five or
six courses totaling 16 hours of
credit each seniester.”

B/D changes
The committee’s resolution prothat effective September
1969, the requirement of the baccalaureate degree be 128 hours—32 four-hour semester courses, or
the equivalent—with an average
grade of C to include successful
completion of a major field of
concentration, departmental or
poses

courses—outside TRe main
area of knowledge in which the

student has concentrated. These
main areas will be humanities, social sciences and science and tech-

nology.
The current University College
requirements are:
“Candidates for the BA degree
must complete a minimum of 128
semester hours.
“As a minimum, students must
have secured a C average for at

least 128 semester hours. Additional hours require the same average as a minimum. This average must be obtained both for the
total number of semester hours
(i. e, including transfer work) and
for all work completed at this
University.
“In the computation of the

over-

all average, all course work which
is counted toward the degree will
be computed, including transfer
credit. In computing a student’s
average for work done at another
accredited institution all grades
are given their full value as received.”
“Students concentrating in subject areas offered under the Faculties of Arts and Letters, Natural Science and Mathematics
and Social Science and Administration are required to satisfy
seven Basic and Distribution requirements.”

The Basic requirements include
one year of college English, a one
year college course in a foreign
language, classical or modern, beyond previous training in high
school, and one year of courses
in mathematics, regardless of
mathematics taken in high school.
The Distribution requirements
consist of a year sequence of
courses 'from each of the following groups:

•

anthropology, linguistics,

psychology, sociology
economics, geography, political science, history
art history, classics, literature, classical or modern lan•

•

guage beyond the first year, music or theory, philosophy.
The committee has proposed
that the new degree requirements
and four-course load program be
instituted in September 1969,

the teacher of a course feels they

and students will be free to feel their

Letter grading,

A professor’s option to specify alternative methods of evaluation in
his course will be exercised in consultation with the appropriate bodies
in his department and Faculty in
cases where his course has an import position in a particular program.

available, will be open to a student
only with the permission of the instructor; there will be not limit on
the number of courses which he may

The Fillmore Room will resound Wednesday night with
the excitement and music of the Student Theater Guild’s fall
production, “Sweet Charity.” When the audience becomes
caught in the spirit of the show, they may forget the characters they are watching are not only actors, but also a group
of devoted students.
These 30 people have dedicated the past two months to
the exhausting, exhilarating,
difficult task of putting together a production. For each
of the cast members, the experience has provided a different kind of fulfillment.
For some, “Sweet Charity” has

been their first theatrical endeavor. Ken Rahtz, a sophomore
transfer student, part of the
chorus, commented: “I’ve never
done so much dancing but 1 feel
that it has helped my coordination.”
Michael Amorosi, vocal director, described the problems he
faced: "This is the first time
I’ve had responsibility like this.
You have to learn how to deal
with people. You have to let them
know tliat you believe what you
are doing is right. But you also
learn to love a lot of people.”

theater at the beginning of his
university years: “From the viewpoint of a freshman, so many of
these people seemed so professional. There is a vast well of
knowledge in the cast itself. I feel
proud to be in this cast.”

only the cast members, but everyone involved. Mick Sandgarten,
the music director, is extremely

Helene, found that “Student Theater Guild is the most personal
thing on this impersonal campus.”

Steve Chiekes, a chorus member, agreed that his associations
with “Sweet Charity” helped overcome the anonymity of life at the
University: “I’ve been looking for
a year to find people who have

found them in theater.”

Athletic

fees

by Richard Baumgarten
A sports columnist has certain responsibilities to his readers, his
newspaper and most importantly to himself. He must separate himself from his emotions. He must place facts above his own opinions.
Truth and fairness must be his criteria for writing.
Therefore, it is-with the deepest concern that I now present the
following facts concerning the athletic fee situation on thiscampus.
It is hoped that these facts will be used as a means of simplifying
what has become a complex and tangled issue.
If it can be proved to my satisfaction that any of the following
statements are erroneous, then I will not hesitate to correct the error
in a future column.
Here is the sequence of events leading to today’s athletic referendum, I will make no comment, I will let you judge the truth.
September 25—A Polity meeting was called to discuss the wording of a referendum which would decide the issue of a voluntary or
mandatory athletic fee. The Polity approved the wording of a resolution by Nancy Coleman, which read: “Whereas athletic programming is difficult without a prior commitment of funds, a mandatory
intercollegiate athletic fee shall be instituted: Yes or No.” It is important to note that not one person at the Polity meeting even suggested a change in the athletic fc.£, a t that time.
October 7 and 1 8—In a referendum, students overwhelmingly
endorsed a mandatory athletic fee. The official vote,was 2046—1306.
Also passed was a provision for a faculty-student committee to determine athletic policy subject to the approval of the fee payers.
October 9-—Richard Schwab, Student Association president, announced in an article published in the Buffalo Evening News that
the athletic fee would be $5.50 per student effective January 1969.
As far as is known there was never an official meeting or minutes of
Sub Board I. Mr. Schwab reportedly received a telephone okay from
a majority of board members.
October 21—A meeting of the Coordinating Council recognized
the $5.50 athletic fee endorsement of Mr, Schwab by a vote of six
yes and one abstention. The one member who abstained was Ted
Beringer. Mr. Beringer was asked to vote yes because Mr. Schwab
was out on a limb and needed the endorsement of the Council.
October 22—Mr. Schwab, in a telephone conversation with University Vice President Peter Regan was reportedly told that the Athletic Department could survive with only a $5.50 fee, with the athletic
deficit being taken out of other State allotments.
October 23—In a three hour meeting with Athletic Director
Peelle, Mr. Schwab argued for the $5.50 fee based on his discussions
with Dr. Regan.
October 23—At a Polity meeting, action on fees was tabled
October 24—A petition for a referendum to determine the amount
of the fees was submitted to the Student Association elections com-

Bulls shattered Northern Illinois University’s hopes of attaining their second victory of the season by grounding out
a 20-7 win the in the host’s west side stadium.
—

It was the Bulls’ sixth victory
of the campaign against only
three defeats and set the stage
for head coach “Doc” Urich’s
best season in his three years
with the Bulls. The Huskies’ record is now 1-7, the Bulls handing them their seventh loss in a

row.

The game started out to be a
complete reversal of last week’s
contest at Temple as the Bulls’
defense showed its strength and

the offense showed its weakness
in the first quarter. This stanza
was filled with turnovers by both
teams with interceptions and
thwarted drives which ended in
a scoreless tie.
It was a fumble recovery by
Don “Rusty” Sabo that stopped
the Huskies on the Buffalo 24yard line and
started Buffalo on
a 60-yard scoring drive in the
second quarter of play. Huskie
Quarterback Bob Carpenter had
been driven behind his line of
scrimmage, was hit hard by Buffalo defenders, and the Buffalo
defensive co-captain fell on the

Zelmanski

scores first

Senior tailback Kenny Rutkowski, junior tailback Pat Patterson
and sophomore fullback Joe Zelwanski traded off running plays
for almost the entire drive with
a 15-yard pass play from
senior
Quarterback Denny Mason to Rutkowski midway in their push
toward the enemy goal line.
T u«*day, November 12,
1968

Zelmanski went up the middle
for the final two yards. Senior
placekicker Bob Embow sent the
ball through the uprights and
the Bulls took the lead, 7-0.
For

the

remainder

of

the

period the ball changed hands

three times with the Bulls stopping the Huskies on what might
have been a scoring drive. Out-

side linebacker Dave Richner
blitzed the line and caught Carpenter for a 13-yard loss after
inside linebacker Scotty Clark
had blocked a passing attempt by
the Huskie junior quarterback.
The Huskies had driven to the
Buffalo 16-yard line up to this
point.

With a fourth down and 21
yards-to-go situation, Carpenter
swept around the left end for a
14-yard gain where the Bulls
took over and ran out the clock.
The Bulls got a break early in
the second half when a Huskie
deep punt was called back because of an illegal procedure
penalty and the next punt only
went 16 yards from the line of,
scrimmage. The ball was downed'
at the Huskie 43-yard line.
Buffalo's running backs each
kowski took the ball on a handoff from Mason and went 32 yards
over left guard for the score. It
was a spectacle to watch as the
play was lined up to go to the
right and Rutkowski went to the
left. Embow kicked the extra
point and the Bulls led 14-0.
,

A “Dad’s Day” crowd of

15,153 was on hand to witness the gridiron contest.

defense stiffened. Two of Carwent for naught
and the Bulls took over on
downs.

penter’s passes

Editor

The Huskies came back with a
long drive, ending on the Buffalo 5-yard line as the Bulls’ pass

The Blue and WKite started
their last drive on their own 45yard line. Mason hit Ashley three
times in this 55-yard scoring
march, the third pass a 17-yarder
for the Bulls’ third and final
touchdown of the afternoon. Embow’s kick went wide of the mark
and the Bulls led 20-0 with 49
seconds gone in the final quarter.
The Huskies came back and
scored after a 62-yard march late
in the final quarter. Their drive
was culminated with a scoring
pass to Carpenter’s favorite end
John Spilis. This was Spilis’ 20th
career touchdown reception and
snapped a ten-year record for the
Huskies.
The Bulls defensive unit deserved much praise for the victory as they held the hosts gains
to 98 yards rushing and 202 yards
passing. This was a tremendous
improvement over last week’s defensive effort when the Bulls’
defensive backfield allowed 443
yards in pass completion yardage.

Rutkowski breaks record
Rutkowski picked up 118 yards
rushing for a season aggregate of
671 yards to break alternate tailback Patterson’s record set last
year at 666 yard rushing. Ashley’s touchdown reception was
the 13th of his career.
Mason connected on seven of
11 passes and now has completed
80 passes in 140 attempts for the
nine games to date. Mason needs
to set a new record for a

mark.

season

The Bulls can rest their weary
muscles and bones for a week as
they are idle this weekend, meeting Boston University in Boston,
Nov. 23. Coach Urich gave them
Sunday and yesterday off and
light training for today. Full practice will resume Wednesday afternoon.

mittee.
October 30—Dr. Regan sent a letter to Mr. Schwab clarifying his
position: “Current athletic programs cannot exist on $5.50. Aid from
the State is unlikely.”
November 1—President Meyerson sent a letter to Mr. Schwab
warning against a reduction of fees.i “If the student athletic fee is
reduced from $12.50 a semester,” he wrote, “there is no chance in the
foreseeable future that the State would make up that difference.”
November 6—Polity meeting. The wording of the referendum on
the amount of fees was decided by the Polity: “A mandatory intercollegiate athletic fee, which was passed Oct. 7 and 8, will lake effect
January 1969. Sub Board I has proposed a $5.50 fee, which was endorsed by the Student Coordinating Council. The present fee is $12.50.
“Effective January 1969, the mandatory intercollegiate athletic
fee shall be $12.50 or $5.50.”
November 11 and 12—Referendum to determine amount of fees.
That completes the story on today’s referendum. Perhaps with a
clearer understanding of the events leading up to the referendum,
the student body will be abe to cast a more responsible vote. And if
that is the case, this column will have served its purpose.
The individual student mdst decide for himself what he believes
is right. As for myself, I cast my ballot for $12.50 early this morning.

Having completed their fall
season as the State University of
Buffalo’s only undefeated intercollegiate team, the 1968 Buffalo
crew is looking forward to an expanded spring season.
The fall season is the beginning of the long road to obtaining the top physical condition
necessary for rowing excellence.
In keeping with this goal, a threeday-a-week weight training program has been instituted for the

vinter months.
The weight training coupled
with work on rowing machines is
expected to get the crewmen in,
top physical shape for the spring
season. Also on tap is a possible

One of Coach Steve Newman’s
high-powered lines will feature
Frank Lewis, Terry Queenville

centers the line, comes to Buffalo
after two highly successful seasons at Canton Tech. At Canton,
Caruso racked up 60 goals in two
seasons and was selected to the
1967 Finger Lakes All Star team.
Lewis, Caruso’s wingmate, led the
league in assists last season, while
Queenville is rated an excellent

Another line has Bill Newman
at center where he should improve on his 23 goals of a year

Bob Albano and Len Deprima.

Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Sachs, the initiators of
the petition to recall President Schwab, assume that
their personal grievances are the opinions of the
Polity. As an informed Polity member I feel that
it is necessary to refute these charges as being a
personal vendetta and completely false. The two
gentlemen apparently misunderstand the system
they are rapping, I would hope that both of them
had been subjected to enough of being led by the
hand in high school. They are degrading their intelligence by accepting Mr. Schwab as the paternal

vehicle of action in the government. Furthermore,
they are declaring their ignorance of the system by
attacking Mr. Schwab personally. So they must
both come to realize that the polity form of government is based on student initiative and not presidential preference.
The office of president must perform certain
roles within the frame work of the Student Association—as both an administrator and a leader.

The leadership role is coordinating the efforts
of his staff, the vice presidents and coordinating

an area and in the interim has become an expert
in his field of interest. The council is therefore an
informational source for the Polity.
Information is disseminated to the president
from outside sources. These sources include the
chancellor’s office concerning SUNY policy, information from the four SUNY centers (Harpur, Albany, Stony Brook and Buffalo) concerning similar
problems and information from other student governments, The president previews this information

To the editor:
In your issue of Tuesday, Nov. 5, you report
Dean Welch as indicating to you that “the commit(to study the implications of the four-course
system) also found that the schools had cautioned
their faculties to evaluate each of their courses to
ascertain whether they already required four credit

that the faculties avoid loading students with more

The clear implication of this passage is that
Dean Welch expects courses carrying four hours of
credit to involve more work than the present average three-hour course. Only those which already
“require four hours of work” would remain un-

Since 1846

tionally the SCC and Polity are the only bodies that
can assess a fee. The SCC endorsed the fee and it
was subsequently brought to the Polity.
The whole Student Association budget is only
$200,000. The activities fee is appropriated to University Union Activities Board and the Publications
Board which coordinate all student functions on
campus. Taking this into consideration and the differing scopes of the programs of the Student Association and the Athletic Department, why should students pay more than $100,000 of the athletic budget?
Also, Mr. Schwab would not be allocating money
within the department. This would be done by the

proposed athletic committee.

Other complaints brought by both of you are
quite evidently after-thoughts and personal grievances against the SUNY system to shabbily support
your petition. Might I remind you that as Polity

members these areas of interest could have been

brought up at a Polity meeting. Yet both of you
sat closed-mouthed, content to malign the functioning of the Polity with petty comments of procedural infractions by the chair. If you were as genuinely interested in bringing about some action concerning the beer license and the fraternity question as you want pople to believe, you should have
addressed the Polity on these issues.
I must further charge you with a lack of concern regarding your fellow students who have been
getting their heads clubbed in by the Buffalo police
if you object to information cards or legal assistance explaining to students their legal rights after
being arrested. This is not overspending but rather
a function of student government. The lawyer you
make reference to will not be handling specific cases
but representing the Student Association in all
legal matters. He will only be retained if the Polity
so mandates.

If these charges are not merely a part of a
pre meditated attempt to disrupt student government and defile Mr. Schwab, then I must assume
you are misinformed and misguided individuals.
Misguided because the making of a better University
should be your concern. The government provides
the machinery; you should be providing the student
input to accomplish

the system.

As I understand it, the essence of the change
is that “the educational experience would be improved by allowing the student more time for
guided reading and studies carried on independently.” This would mean that the change is to put
extra, unstructured time at the student’s disposal.
It appears to me that there is a serious contradiction in Dean Welch’s statement which should be
clarified before we proceed any further, particularly since the students are in danger of losing the

A new ‘Munich pact?’

Polity discussion crucial
Today the Polity begins an analysis of the report of the
Faculty Senate Committee on Educational Planning and Policy which advocates a four-course program for undergraduates, new degree requirements, and optional alternatives in
methods of grading.
The general objectives of the proposals are sound, aimed

at making the growing University increasingly flexible, creative and responsible.
The report, however, does contain many ambiguities,
some inconsistencies, and some dangerous loopholes, all of
which must be thoroughly examined and revised.
It is imperative that strong student input be developed
at this stage. Student apathy on these questions means added

strength for the reactionary forces within the Faculty Senate;
a show of student power now may sway the hesitants, and
boost the forces of change among the faculty.
There are several disturbing sections of the report which
deserve our immediate attention.
Giving any faculty member the option of how to grade
his particular students is a dangerous continuation of the
Simon Says classroom game which students should unequivocally oppose; the alternative methods of grading should be
instituted across the board, and not be subject to the veto
of obstinate faculty members;
The original grading report suggested that, in the
case of a course being required for some Faculty or degree
program, all three alternatives should be available; the new
report only says that in such instances the faculty member
should “consult” with “appropriate bodies” in a department
or Faculty; no mention is made as to whether these “appropriate bodies” are to include students or not, which they
should;
The limit of 25% of total credit hours for S/U grading
seems wholly arbitrary; grades are for the benefit of the
student and the grading mechanism should be the choice ofthe student; there are no educational criteria for such a limit,
and the number of S/U courses should be each student’s
individual perogrative;
The provision for “an experimental group of undergraduate students chosen by . . . University College” to be
allowed to take all credits S U is ambiguous in both its mechanism as well as its intent; it is just such inequities, even in
“experiments,” which the University should be trying to
•

•

•

•

avoid;
•

The first resolution calls for a C average in all courses

to graduate, while the S/U system says an S grade will be
A through D; it is unclear how the S/U system fits into the
C average requirement, which we suggest be changed to an

S average;
The whole approach toward changing the course load
seemg filled with ambiguities and inconsistencies
a fourcourse load is fine if it means increased flexibility and relaxed requirements, but does this proposal do these?
The 128-hour requirement seems another case of an
arbitrary figure, based on nothing more than an equally
arbitrary 32-course total or else on the relic of the past;
The breakdown distribution in requirements is an excellent idea, but no mention is made in regards to such things
as “applied credits” in the present system;
It is unclear how the proposal would affect the work
load of the present three-hour courses; or for that matter,
how it would affect the present two-, four- or five-hour
•

•

•

courses;

The report is unclear whether or not the course schedules would have to be revised:
It is equally unclear why a 128-hour system based on
32 four-hour courses is preferable to a 96-hour system based
on 32 three-hour courses;
It is unclear how this course load would affect the
teaching loads of both faculty and graduate assistants;
The report misses out on an excellent opportunity to
include in the section on degree requirements a provision
requiring significant student representation on all departmental and faculty curriculum committees.
There are other minor discrepancies in the report; the
above are the most major, and none of them seem insoluble.
The report should be examined, and revised accordingly. The
issues require much participation; the final revised report
requires a resounding endorsement by the Polity.

Legalize Peace

the gadfly
by Mark Schneider

One of the reasons Bill Harrell was fired last
year is that he went around saying things like “a
university should be an orgy. It should be just a
place to live and learn—no grades, no exams, no de-

grees.”

All concerned in the decision not to re-hire
him will surely deny that the man’s ideas were involved, and on a concious level they will be right.
But the notion of a university as a “place” is terribly subversive, and on a subconscious level it is
intolerable to people whose sense of self rests
upon being “assistant” or “full professors.” Of much
more significance than the wounding of a few egos,
however, is that such notions raise important questions for all of us, questions which threaten the
comfortable.
Grades and multiple choice tests are a positive hindrance to the pursuit of knowledge. A “B”
on.a paper or transcript tells me nothing about my
ideas on a subject. A critical response helps me
to learn much. Yet the university is structured so
that students waste time preparing for exams when
we could actually be learning. Curiosity, oddly
enough, is almost laughed at by many students,
and it is not our fault. We went to high school to
get into a good college to get into a good job or a
good graduate school to get into a better job—preferably one with a comfortable retirement program.
Placing a grade on a student's work insures that
he will see his studies as a means, not an end. The
grade doesn't tell the student anything, but it tells
the future employer something.
Not only are grades and dull exams negative,
but degrees are also. Degrees are the goal; they
do not educate students. In fact, degrees, too, guarantee the perpetual alienation of the student from
the present, from the thrill of discovery NOW for
its own sake. What do they do? They tell the employer something.
Somehow it seems that the university is not
built for the students but for that future employer.
This wouldn’t even be upsetting if there were a
community of interest between the student-scholar
and the employer, but, in fact, there is a conflict.
Employers arc interested not in utilitarian ends
or knowledge qua knowledge; they are interested in
keeping the boat from rocking.iToo many teachers
were fired in New York last year for their antiwar views to convince me
Thus, as some radicals have been arguing, the
university is nothing but a vast job-training center.
The required stuff thrown into the curriculum like
a year of English, social studies, math and gym
is not for the purpose of producing well-rounded
men—as if Math 117 or astronomy broadened anyone’s world view—but to keep kids in school for
four years. There arc 4 million university students
in the country and if one half of them were dropped
on the labor market they would have nowhere to
go. So the presence on campus of war recruiters
like Boeing, Grumman. Cornell Lab or Dow should
be no surprise.
are just finishing off a job
on us begun in elementary school.1
Bill Harrell defined an open campus and academic freedom when he said that the university
should be a place for an orgy.
Our State University of Buffalo campus is
“open"—like a funnel is open. Untrained kids are
poured in one end and doctors, lawyers and missile
builders come out the other. Liberal educator Gen.
Hershey calls it “channeling."

otherwiseN

Discussions of rules for picketers and demonstrators miss the point in a discussion of an open
campus. Since the campus is a product of the need
for technicians, we must open the technocrats and
capitalists to open the campus, to make it amenable to a learning atmosphere where “cheating" will
be unthought of. The logic of the SDS proposal at
the last Polity meeting was to reveal this conflict
by focusing upon the very immediate illogic of
equating secret, classified research with an open

campus.

‘‘Point of Order” appears today on page 3. Mr.
Eng's column will assume its regular position next
week.

To the editor:
“The Student Association Committee on Admissions is investigating the possibility of initiating an
open admissions policy by fall 1969, providing the
opportunity for all high school graduates to enter
state universities.” (Spectrum, Nov. 5, 1968)
That such an admissions policy would guarantee
the “right of higher education, not the privilege,”
and allow for “the education of the disadvantaged
from all ethnic groups” sounds like something
straight out of Phil Ochs’ “Loye Me, I’m a Liberal.”
Mr. Brodt raves about appeasement and then
proceeds to propose a new Munich pact. These
committee members seem to be fairly imaginative.
Perhaps their prolific imaginations can produce a
proposal on how the “disadvantaged” can obtain a
high school diploma. This proposal might even include a clause that will transform these same
“disadvantaged” people to sedate members of the
middle class. Thus transformed, they might even
become acceptable members of the University community and assume their proper place in our Wonderous Fortress of the Status Quo.

Replies to Marsh criticism
To the editor.
I wish to reply to g statement made by Bruce
Marsh in The Spectrum Nov. 8. He claimed that the
Polity has not been succeeding due to meager participation. For Mr. Marsh’s information, the last two
Polity meetings in the Haas Lounge were packed to
the brim. More than 3000 students voted on the
athletics referendum. Thus far participation in the
Polity has been gratifying.
Secondly, Bruce said about the Student Association that "the people in power are underhanded
and shifty. They’re also inconsistent. They complain
about the structure and system and the lack of freedom and yet they deny freedom to the masses.”
I have two replies here. First, I wish Bruce
would present some evidence as to where the members of the Student Association are shifty and
underhanded. Making such a charge with no evidence demonstrates a lack of integrity on Mr,
Marsh’s part. Second, in regard to the statement
that freedom has been denied to the masses, let
me remind Mr. Marsh that every decision of the
Student Coordinating Council is subject to Polity
review. The Polity provides as much freedom as is
possible in any democratic system.
Ted Beringer

Disagrees with Sawicki
To the editor;
About two weeks ago Robert Sawicki, in his
column “between the lines,” stated his tentative
philosophy for life. In response to his invitation
for comments, I’d like to disagree with him on one
of his premises, namely that “God is not dead,
because God never existed
It seems to me an obvious value judgment to
reason that “any argument to prove his existence
is based on false premises.’
Who is to say what is a true or a false premise,
Mr. Sawicki? How do you know that your conclusion
that God never existed is not based on false prem...”

ises?

It would be closer to the truth to state that we
can neither prove nor disprove God’s existence.
I find much evidence that not only was a Supreme
Being necessary to provide the elements from
which our universe evolved, but also that He is a
very relevant factor in the lives of people today.

remedy this situation, it was decided
up a student advisory committee for

the program. The students will work with
the administrators of the program in all
phases that affect them. The students will
meet tomorrow at the Jefferson Education
Center, 1203 Jefferson Ave.
Rev. Herman Cole, assistant to the director of the Office of Equal Opportunity,
announced that the students in the program will be able to register for regular
courses for the spring semester.
As the program was operating this semester, the students registered for UC 151,
an independent study that is worth 16
credits. The students then worked out a
program with their individual tutors.
Starting with registration for next sem-

the students may take the 16 credany combination of ..regular courses,
independent study and work-study.
This aspect of the program came under

ester
its in

attack at the meeting. Beverley Washington, one of the students in the program,
asked why “we were misled from the beginning.” She wondered “why weren’t we
advised to take regular courses?”

Mr. Shepp admitted that “this was a
mistake on our part.” But Rev. Cole indicated that “it is one of the goals of the
program to improve the way credits are

given at the University.”
The question of whether the

degree

that will be earned by the students in the
program will be equivalent to the regular
University degree was one that Mr. Shepp
admitted “can’t be answered here. We
haven’t made sufficient Mason with the
different departments to show that a degree under this program would be the
same as a regular BA.”
James Moss, member\of the Select Committee on Equal Opportunity, maintained:
"No such proposal for a different kind of
BA degree is coming out of this program.”
The proposed student advisory committee will examine this problem

Tieup in Albany
The other major problem that was the
focus of the meeting was the apparent delay in the receipt of money from the fed-

eral government.

Gary Blumberg from the

Office of Financial Aid said that there
was a “delay in getting federal funds to
students because of a tieup in Albany. He
indicated that there should be no such delay in getting funds for the second semester, since requests are granted for a
full academic year.
Commenting on the effectiveness of the
meeting, Mr, Shepp indicated that "the
students get to know each other a little
better. This kiiid of identity was sorely
lacking—we are trying to get a singularity of purpose.”
Referring to the main issues of the
meeting, he explained that "the financial
problems are due to a slowdown in the
Bursar: we hope to change things before
next year. We hope to exercise more levers on the different departments and establish liasons between the OEO and the
students in the program.
“We want not only changes in the curriculum for the students in the experimental program but changes in the curriculum for all students—black and
white."

PARIS
The election of Richard M, Nixon cast a shadow of un
certainty over the Vietnam war talks here.
Diplomatic sources said the South Vietnamese may seek to delay any meaningful talks here until they determine if Nixon may
be more agreeable to their ideas than President Johnson.

“The new grading system will
give students flexibility. We have
been too rigid.”

Alan R. Andreasen commented

on the proposed new grading system for undergraduates of the
State University of Buffalo. The
Faculty Senate will debate and
vote on the resolution Nov. 27.

The sources also said there was some personal concern among
the U.S. diplomats headed by roving ambassador W. Averell Harriman and Ambassador Cyrus R. Vance.

Chairman of the Ad Hoc Committee on Grading and Ranking,
Dr. Andreasen submitted the orgiipal report for a revision of the
grading system in 1967. The proposals of his committee, which
have since been reviewed and
modified by the Senate Committee on Educational Planning and
Policy, call for a system comprised of alternatives in the grading method.
Dr. Andreasen explained that

Dr. Andreasen explained that
students will be able to take the

example, they could all be taken
the freshman year if the student
wanted to experiment in a num
ber of different fields of study
and not worry about hindering
his academic standing.
“In this way, a student is given
the opportunity for variation in
the way he designs his program,”
Dr. Andreasen said.

“How a student is graded affects what he will learn in the
course,” Dr. Andreasen said. “Under this process students will be
able to tailor the grading system
to their own needs. They will be
able to experiment with their

Recommendations to accept the

unanimously by the Executive
Committee of the Faculty Senate
If approved by the Faculty Senate, the new grading system will
go into effect in September 1969
and rud as an experimental pro-

gram for five years. At the en.l
of the five-year period, the system will be reviewed for its effect and value.

The new grading system will
be one of several resolutions to
be voted by the Faculty Senate
at its next meeting. Also proposed are the transition to new
degree requirements and a fourcourse system, abolishment of
computation of University-wide
rankings of students, and assignment of the concern for transitions to new arrangements to
the Educational Policy Commutes of the several faculties.

The blood drive held Monday in Norton Hall
was a resounding success, according to Bob Sikorsky, a member of the Commuter Council, the sponsoring organization. Many more prospective donors
offered blood than could be accommodated.
A portion of the blood donated was rushed to
Children's Hospital for immediate use, Mr. Sikorsky
noted.
It was the best turnout for such a drive in University history. Mr. Sikorsky attributed this partly
to the change in State law which permitted individuals over 18 years of age to give blood without
parental consent. In the past, one had to be 21
before he could donate blood on his own.
The Red Cross extends free blood protection for
a donor and his family for one year.

The SpEcn\u M

�between the lines
by Robert P. Sawicki

As I write this, it is election Tuesday,
and I watch my television enveloped in a
bitter, frustrated aura.
With his typical form, Johnson proved
beyond a doubt that he is not above playing politics with thousands of American
and Vietnamese lives. There are only two
reasons why the complete bombing halt
(complete over North Vietnam, not South
Vietnam) appeared at such an opportune
time. First, and most likely, it appeared
for the political boost it might have given
H.H.H., in conjunction with L.B.J.’s own
forethought of his place in the future
history books; or secondly, and highly
doubtful, Johnson and his cronies final-

ly came up with correct total for tens of

thousands of deaths, hundreds of thousands -of wounded, and billions of dollars
spent: A ravaged land with no political
forces except the totalitarian Saigon regime and the National Liberation Front;
a countryside defoliaged and uninhabitable
counterbalanced by a debasing city or
refugee camp life.

Wednesday, the news media reported,
quite coincidentally, that U.S. jets were
returning to their carriers with most of
their bombs because there was very few
targets left to bomb. Thursday, the bombing halt was announced. The Wednesday

report from some government information

Troops move into Prague
PRAGUE
Czechoslovak troops have
been moved into this tense city to prevent
outbreaks of anti-Soviet demonstrations
—

according to diplomatic

sources.

The army units were ordered to barracks close to Prague by Czech leaders
fearful of “disorders” during the anniversary of the Russian Revolution, the
sources reported. Severe anti-Soviet protests could result in reprisals by the
Russians.
_
....
Despite Soviet threats of action with
tanks and troops Czechoslovak youths
carried out three days of wild anti-Soviet
demonstrations in celebrating the 50th
anniversary of the Czechoslovak republic.
„

Red army movements also were reported around the- Czech capital. Units of
the Soviet occupation force shifted from
the Czech countryside to an area west of

Prague, while other Russian soldiers left

forest bivouacs for barracks closer to

Prague.

Fears of pro-Soviet as well as antianniversary demonstrations prompted the
Czech troop movements, according to the
party sources. An estimated 200,000 oldline Stalinists are in northeastern Czechoslovakia, along the Russian border.
The 'SolShevik 'Revolution anniversary
will precede a crucial meeting of the Czech
Communist Party Central Committee at
which pro-Soviet factions are likely to
attempt to oust the embattled Czech reform regime headed by Alexander Dubcek.
The troop movements ushered in what
could be the most crucial week for Czechoslovak leaders since ti;e Warsaw Pact
invasion.

government information
agencies produce garbage, does this mean
that the news media has to report it?

Question:

If

Since, the elections are not over, let’s
do a little adding up on elections in general. The Census Bureau disclosed that in
1966, out of 113 million persons of voting
age, 30 million didn’t even bother to register. Add this to the number of persons
who registered but didn’t bother to vote.
Total: A very large number of people don’t
give a shit who is running the country.
The country as a whole is perhaps a little
unconcerned, but then again, here on our
campus everyone is highly educated and
definitely concerned with the problems
which face the country, world and the
University community.

Now let’s add some more. Take the
number of persons who show up for a
cross country race; add it to the number
who show up for a golf match and all the
other minor sports; add to this the low
percentage of people who voted for the

athletic referendum: add lastly the fact
that it was passed and you should come
up with a total like this: The vast majority of students don’t give a shit who makes
the decisions, and most of those who do
only wish to insure their continued good
times, and not anything more worthwhile.

Election night goes on: C.B.S. presents
Walter Cronkite, who appears typically
stoical, but not disinterested. East Jesus,
New Hampshire votes 6 to 2, Nixon over
Humphrey. Bufferin speeds pain relievers to your head in half the time. This
early, the only thing that I can be sure
of is personal catharsis. I watch the coverage with the same interest that I would
watch Lassie, now that it is clear that
Wallace will not win any states out of the
deep South.

At the headquarters for Max McCarthy
in the Sheraton Motor Inn (where I spent
two hours) the most intelligent person
that I talk to is the bartender. An exstudent from this University, he was
forced to drop out because he didn’t have
enough money. Free beer and lots of
middle-aged women mingled with younger
men, while the older men sat around the
room watching the young men going
through civil gestures. McCarthy wins
hands down.

In the morning the results start to shape
up. There is some good news in the winner’s column: Cranston, Fulbright, Church,

and some bad news: Goldwater will be
back, Dirkson is cutting another record to
celebrate his victory, O’Dwyer lost, Gilligan lost, and Nixon will win. Nixon really
cares about people. Last night he wouldn’t
even come down from his upstairs suite to
the ballroom where his victory party was
held. What the hell, he didn’t need these

Hanoi claims accords broken
PARIS
North Vietnam and the Viet
Cong accused the United States of breaking secret accords with Hanoi by postponing the expanding Vietnam negotiations scheduled for Paris and flying
reconnaissance flights over the north since
the bombing halt.

South Vietnam’s boycott on attending the
Paris talks alongside a full-fledged Viet
Cong delegation. But a report in Saigon
by the semi-official government news
agency said President Nguyen' Van Thieu
would make “a new peace proposal” within the next few days.

In press statements apparently aimed
at widening the split between Washington
and Saigon, the Hanoi and Viet Cong delegations in Paris pointedly urged that the
expanded talks get under way immediately.

Editor’s note.- Following a series ol extensive interviews with six
youths who alleged they were beaten by Buffalo police of Precinct Six
the night of Oct. 16, The Spectrum broke the story to the Buffalo
community a full six days later. Beginning the next day, both local
dailies finally began to examine the incident, and their editorials, combined with pressure from segments of the University and the Amrican Civil Liberties Union, resulted in calls for an Official investigation
of the youths’ charges.
The Buffalo Police Commissioner responded with a “thorough" sixhour investigation, after which he stated the youths’ charges were
“completely false." Most recently, the District Attorney called off a
grand jury hearing on the matter.
Spectrum writer Corydon Ireland, whose Oct. 22 front-page story
“Where will it all end?" brought a thorough picture of the incident into
print for the first times, discusses some implications of the incident.

�Erie County Dems:
A year for victory
by Alfred Dragone
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Erie County Democrats have the knack of winning well
The Democrats rented the Statler Hilton’s smaller Terrace Room while the Republicans occupied the larger and
more luxurious Golden Ballroom. The Republicans provided
free beer and pretzels while the Democrats did not.
The Democrats, who prefer to
be known as the simple party of
the people, hosted a spirited, victorious event despite their apparent lack of opulence.
As the results began to trickle

in about 9:10, the crowd also began to trickle in. By midnight the
room was awash with jubilant
party faithful.
Thomas Santa Lucia, treasurer
of the local party organization,
announced the first winner at
10:10. Stephen R. Greco glided
easily into his sixth term as state
assemblyman by g lopsided margin of over 9,00 yotes. The crowd
was happy but nd’ very surprised.
"Nixon, Nixon!"
During the evening little bands
of girls replete with their Nixon
dresses wandered into the Democratic headquarters. Standing in
front of the dais bathed in the
television kleig lights they periodically chanted loudly “Nixon,
Nixon!”
One member of the Democratic
youth organization, fortified with
free beer cadged from Republican
headquarters across the lobby,
wondered aloud whether the
girl’s paper Nixon dresses w’ere
flammable or not. They left hurredly, only to return later.
At 11:30 another predictable
winner, party vice-chairman Sen.
Frank Glinski had clearly swept
to victory in his state senate district by more than 28,000 votes.
The crowd, however, was more
interested in the television returns and the free refreshments
and entertainments across the
hall.
The crowd showed more interest in the election of City Court
judge Wilbur P. Trammell. Defeating a straight “law and order” man, John A. Ramunno,
Judge Trammell became the first
black to be popularly elected to
the City Court in Buffalo.
Despite a vigorous campaign
waged by youthful Edward P.
Mattar III, Rep. Thaddeus J. Dulski won a sixth term with a plurality of 67,000 votes. The ubiquitous Mr. Mattar, who is not
shy about appearing at Democratic functions, appeared Tuesday night at Democratic headquarters. He proceeded to move

about the room thanking the Democrats who voted for him. If
there were any t h e r e, they
weren't admitting it.
A large disappointment of the
evening, although not unexpected, was the defeat, even in Democratic Erie County, of Paul
O’Dwyer. Jacob Javitz carried
Erie County by 35,000 votes. This
was never announced to the
crowd.
By midnight, the Republican
“victory” celebration had run out
of free beer and enthusiasm. One
Nixon supporter, about ten years
old, stood close to tears in Democratic headquarters when he
heard of the impressive lead that
Hubert Humphrey was piling up
in Ei ie County. He asked quite
argumentatively why it was that
Humphrey won by wider margins
in the Terrace Room than he did
across the hall in the Ballroom.
The decided climax of the evening came at 12:40 with the re-

election of Richard D. McCarthy
in the 39th Congressional District. The incumbent McCarthy,
who was expected to lose to challenger Daniel Weber in a tight
race in the heavily Republican
39th, glided to victory on what
amounted to a landslide. His plurality of 27,000 votes produced a
tumultuous cheer from the crowd.
After the usual statements of ap-

HHH in Erie County

Another surprise of the evening
when Hubert Humphrey
carried Erie County by a surprising 81,000 votes. In 1960, John
F. Kennedy only carried it by
65,000 votes. As late as Saturday,
people labeled as extremely excessive Chairman Crangle’s prediction that Humphrey would
sweep Erie County by 50,000
came

Mr. Crangle underestimated his organization. Although the national returns were
a bit depressing, no one could
say that Crangle and his army of
volunteers did not effectively
turn out the vote in Erie County.

“The King has a new mandate

“If that’s so, then what will

Spartans standing nearby.

“The Parthenon will have to

’Trebonious.

“Not so,” responded the perceptive Trebonious. “the King is
merely telling us what he knows

"Invigorating, isn’t it?” laughed
Thuclide insanely.
Seneca, becoming indignant but
resigned to what he realizes is a
situation out of his hands, slowly
picks kp'ftis sword.

As an after-trought he looks
up and mumbles rather sheepishly, “But what about the election?”
“Well, didn’t it n ake you feel

“But what will the King do in

Trebonious ponders this question and then replies: “For one
thing he’ll get back the Argos
from those hijackers, the Sirens.”
"Yeah,” interjected Thuclide,
"and he’ll make sure that people
around the world will have new
respect for the Grecian Gen, too.’

Special to The Spectrum

The Federal Bureau of Drug Abuse is cracking down on a modern-day descendant
of Johnny Appleseed. Known as Johnny Pol, he plants marijuana seeds throughout
northeastern Ohio and

nearby states.

He has been rumored to haunt little-used pastureland and abandoned farms and
sends plans of his seedage to fellow hippies. He is usually attired in a black derby, a
madras sportscoat, burgundy trousers and gold sandals; he has shoulder-length hair
and a beard and is 6 feet tall.

The marijuana plant seeds ripen for picking between late August and October,
Mindful of this, federal agents are intensifying their search.
Johnny Pot has been chased from Washington and Oregon east to Ohio and is
supposedly now near Cleveland, where he hides in the woods during the day.
He travels on foot and accepts rides only from truck drivers, carrying his seeds
in a mailman's pouch. He earns money by washing dishes or windows in the cities and
spends nights in hippie communities.

He has reportedly spent many nights in jail on vagrancy charges, but his supply
of pot has never been discovered.

A program to recruit several hundred 14-year-old elementary school graduates as full-time University freshmen
is being formulated.

W ork and that
postpones life for a lot of people.
High school is either a way of
finishing preparation for citizenship or of preparing for college.
As a way of preparing for college,
it is becoming more and more a
duplicate of college work.”

“We’ll have to look for 14-year
olds who have very little to learn
in high school. High school staffs
are not prepared to see more than
their own tests show! New ways
of testing will have to be developed with high school counselors, psychologists and other experts working together.”

Mr. Hays has been seeking faculty and administrative support
for his plah since September.
University.-, administrators
do not haver much experience in
this area of education, he said,
"the goal is still to admit a few
students next year on an experimental basis.”

Similar schemes have met with
success at the University of Chicago and Michigan State, but no
large-scale movements have begun, Mr. Hays attributes this to
“a good deal of conservatism at
work among administrators and
parents.” One apparent reason
for this, he thinks, is a reluctance
to mix young people indiscriminately with students four to
eight years their seniors.

At new campus?
Later, it would expand to “a
program that would take in 14
year olds as freshmen in fairly
large numbers,” he said. “I’m also
looking info the possibility of
making it a part of the University’s new campus.” Mr. Hays
plans to release a formal proposal to administrators in several
weeks.
The present high school educational system was a target for Mr.

Hays’ criticism. He maintains that
young people are ready for marriage, jobs, and other important
social events long before their
18th birthdays.
“But,” he pointed out, “the educational system is not prepared
to release them. Some of them
must quit high school to search

Administrative reluctance

Mr. Hays’ solution would be
“to get enough of them so they
can be together, yet allowing stu-

dents to divide their lives. Some
will asociate with the older students and some will stick with
the 14 year olds. People grow
up faster than we recognize.”
University authorities must be
convinced of its benefits if this
program is to be adopted, Mr.
Hays said. He also indicated that
experimentation would be required for its successful implementation.
Mr. Hays believes that it is necessary and feasible change; “Education is changing and I think
there’s a good chance for programs like this to catch on.”

number of credits each student
carries had been made by Dr.
Brutvan. Prior to the meeting,
Jack Green, president of MFCSA,
had objected to such a system because il entails that “the more
courses a student takes the more
he h,as to pay. and yet the student who takesthe fewer courses
has more time to benefit from the

activities.

Administration's view

To present the administration's

viewpoint, the MFCSA invited Dr,
Brutvan and Nicholas

Kish, assis-

tant dean, to speak at Monday's
meeting.

Mr. Kish claimed that “we don’t
question the association's authority to regulate fees, but no student association, be it the day
school or the night school, has
the right to assess any fee they

want

upon the students. Natural-

ly they must limit the fees, and
they must also present specific
justification for the fees they do
demand.”

Dr. Brutvan said: “The administration's role is merely to see
that things are set up for the
benefit of students and not to
control what they decide.” He
stressed the need for an organized system by which the association can establish its necessary
expenditure account and formulate a reasonable and more ex-

plicit budget.
To facilitate this he recognized
that the association must revise
their by-laws. Although he agreed

with the objections raised that
such a revision would take a
good deal of time, he asserted
that “you should start to make an
active change now.”

Established fees
In a brief interview following
the meeting. Dr. Brutvan indi
cated that the MFC student body

direct from “The Action House” of Long Island

“has not yet developed their de-

cision-making voice to the extent
which the day school has.” He
emphasized the need for the association to “operate as a body,
formalize their operations and update their by-laws.” Furthermore

he claimed that he “did not object to the amount of the fees
provided they are used to finance
worthwhile activities."
During the meeting the
bers discussed the

mem-

current amount

of the established fees and Mr.
Kish explained why the association had originally raised fees
from $3.50 to $4.50. However, he
warned that “the more money you
assess your students than is actually necessary, the larger will
be the amount demanded from
the sub board.” Mr. Kish insisted
that the administration must see
evidence that the current fee is
justified.

Mr. Scott proposed sending a
letter to the chairman of the committee on by-laws to suggest a
revision, but Dr. Brutvan temporarily dismissed this as being of
“secondary importance, whereas
the amount of the fees to be
charged for the spring semester
must be determined this week."
Bert Pritchard, vice president of
MFCSA, argued that "we can't
base a decision on anything right
now" and the meeting was then

adjourned.
After the two administrators
left, the association's executives
decided to keep the amount of the
fees as they stand and to meet tomorrow to formulate an accurate
budget to be submitted to Mr
Kish. Mr, Green added that "since
Dr. Brutvan's request is a reasonable one, wc will certainly com-

ply with it."

has the gift of putting it all together again.

He is angry with himself as
much as with the others for his
mistakes. He describes his reaction to a march last month in
Catonsville for the Nine, on the
same day as a big Wallace rally:
“There was a juxtaposition between the marchers and the Wallace people that lined the route.
We saw that we weren’t talking
with the working people. The
whole thing was unreal. Among
students there is an upper-middleclass elitism operating—the
workers couldn’t come to that
march even, if they wanted to.
They have jobs to go to.
“They asked us how we were
able to find the time to demonstrate for three days. And how
did we expect them to join us?”

Wallace and workers

Wallace did reach the working
people, partly by saying “a lot of
New Left things.” He scores the
bureaucrats and the small group
of men who control eveiyone
else’s lives.
Walace is real, but, says Chris,
“the upper middle class is hung
up on the symbolic”—like marching and speaking and draft-card
burning. He feels the Resistance
is at the end of its line (he resisted many months ago).
But to Chris, the answer is not
in fourth parties like Peace and
Freedom: “There is no sense in
playing where the enemy is

strongest.

You only display your

weakness that way—winning 1%
of the vote looks ridiculous. And
this election is no different from
any other; we’ve got to show that.
But we must provide an alternative. The elections can be tied
into local issues. You can work
for better housing even without
anyone in Washington. We’ve
got to fight on positive grounds,
and some day electoral politics
may be important. But for now,
why participate in a system
you’re trying to discredit?”

we’ve picked up Columbia’s style
and not its content. You can’t artificially create a Columbia, al-

though, of course, the desire to is
legitimate because the society is
rotten to the core and people just
want to do something about it.

But that kind of artificial militancy will only lead to a Wallace
syndrome. In order to create anything meaningful, you’ve got to
organize, and we just haven’t
been doing it.”
Chris spoke of what will happen to the Movement after the
war ends and the issues disintegrate. There will be no more Vietnams, in his view, because the
U S. government will not make
that mistake again. Nor will there
be many more clear villains of
the piece like Grayson Kirk; the
administrator of the future wlil
be typically liberal and conciliatory.

'Superficial analysis'
“But the man in the street sees
that liberalism hasn’t offered real
answers, and he doesn’t want fascism. The Left could provide him
with the answer, but it hasn’t.
All we have offered is a superficial analysis of capitalism. We
have got to find a way to offer
something to the man who can’t

Today in America’s changing society these lines have
even more particular meaning, both for Lowenfels and
his audience.

War,” a play by Charles Clinton, which will be presented thi's evening in Baird Hall. Directed by Tom
Moore, the performances will continue through Nov.
10 starting at 8:30 p.m. Tickets are available at the

Film series concerned with

problems of Black America

A series of four film documentaries, depicting various environ-

of the course “The Continuing

Burden Down,” the
first film, will be shown in room

Conditions of black tenant farmers in the southern United States
are examined in the film. Averaging less than $1000 in annual income, these tenant farmers are

continue the same life or migrate
to slums in northern cities.
The second film will be shown
Monday. It focuses upon a single
black family with ten children,
receiving welfare payments, living in a northern city. The film
follows the efforls of the 17-yearold son to obtain some role in
society. It is titled "Losing Just
the Same.”
Nov. 18, the film “The Poor

in this society actually are overcharged for the goods and services they purchase. At one point
in the film, using concealed cam-

eras, unscrupulous salesmen are
watched as they sell home freezers and furniture to poor families.

Still active
Today at 71, he is still intensely active in not only the civil
rights and black movements but
in the protest movement against
the Vietnam war as well. He is
constantly in demand to give
readings for protest benefits
as well as for poetry societies and
academies, but always lets it be
known that he prefers to read
for the cause of the former.
To date, Lowenfels has more
than 20 volumes of work published with another ten or so soon

WBFO, the University’s radio
station, will soon be moving from
its present Baird Hall location to
Norton Hall.

Robert Henderson, business
manager of Norton Hall, indicated that “contractors will be
here” within a week to begin
preparation of the rooms assigned
to the radio station.
The rooms that will be used

are rooms 327 and 329. The form-

er room is currently in use as a
“very popular study space,” according to Mr. Henderson, “It is
a very big corner room with lots
of sunlight.”

Room 329, he said, “is a student activities room. Seven or
eight groups are assigned in
there. It is not clear how frequently they use it, but they

don’t seem to be using the desks
for activities.”
These rooms will become “permanent program areas or support
facilities for WBFO,” Mr. Henderson indicated.
The WBFO offices are now in
Hall, bul its production
facilities are in Baird. Hank Tannenbaum, program director for
the station, explained that “in
Baird we have two rooms and a
hallway; we’re very cramped.”

Spectrum Staff Reporter

This year’s edition of the varbasketball Bulls, led by head

sity

coach Len Serfustini and assistant
a
coach Norb Baschnagel, present
junblend of returning lettermen,
sophoior college transfers and
mores from this past year’s 134
freshman team.

The returning lettermen include
such key performers as “Easy”
Ed Eberle, a 6 foot1 2 inch senior
forward, who was this past season’s leading scorer with a 13.7
average and team MVP for two
seasons running; Bob Nowak, a
6 foot 2 inch senior forward, who
compiled a 10.3 scoring average
this past season; John Vaughan, a
6 foot 9 inch junior center, labeled as “greatly improved” by
Dr. Serfustini; Jack Scherrer, a
6 foot 4 inch junior center; Bobby Williams, a 6 foot 1 inch
junior guard; and Rich Barbera,
a 6 foot 1 inch junior guard who
did not letter this past season.

Several

sophomores possessing
strong potential are 'Steve Waxman, a 6 foot 5 inch forward, this
past season’s leading freshman
scorer (20.6), rebounder (13.0) and
MVP of the team; Roger Kremblas, a 6 foot 2 inch guard, who

Other sophomores include
Ken Palen, 6 feet; Terry

by an ankle injury; Jim Brunen

Golfers finish

The trend in basketball today
has been for the junior college
transfer student to make his presence felt on the varsity teams in
schools all across the nation.
The U.S. Olympic Team boasted
of eight such players including
center Spencer Haywood, a player
with unlimited potential. Valuable junior college additions to
the Serfmen this season include
former Niagara Community College starts John Fuerch and Jim
Freeney. Fuerch, a 6 foot 4 inch
forward, was N.C.C.’s leading
scorer this past year. Freeney, a
6 foot guard, is an excellent defensive ballplayer and a good ball
handler. Steve Nelson, a member
of the golfing team, hails from
E.C.T.I. Nelson, a 6 foot 1 inch
guard, is a scrappy ball player
who exhibits strong leadership
qualities. All three players are
currently successfully adjusting
to the demands of varsity competition and can be expected to play
a key roll in many of the Bulls’
contests this season.
Senior forward Art Walker,
who missed a year of school, is
back with the team this season.
Walker, a 6 foot 4 inch jumping
jack, will give the Bulls considerable strength and depth on the
front line. Rounding out the
squad is junior Rick Mann, a
member of the 1965-66 Bulls.
Mann, a 6 foot 3 inch center, had
missed the last two campaigns
because of military duty.

Injuries and illness greatly
hampered coach Serfustini’s team
last season. The Bulls, while compiling a record of 11-11, could not
field the same starting line-up for
two consecutive games at any
time last season. This made it
difficult for the Serfmen to develop the unity and cohesiveness
so essential to success.
A major task confronting the
team this season will be developing this vital togetherness. This is
because only six out of the 19
squad members were on last season’s varsity. The key to the
success of the Bulls this campaign will be, according to Dr.
Serfustini, “how quickly the
players become familiar with
each other and how fast they can
develop as a unit. The team possesses great potential, but time,
practice and game experience
will determine how soon and to
what extent it is realized.”
Student support, and lots of it,
can greatly enhance the realization of potential.

past twelve seasons has been a
National Division Champion

three straight Interstate Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championship teams immediately before Northern Illinois withdrew
from that league and J,hree postseason bowl games.
Coach Fletcher decided before
spring training this year that
since competition was getting
tougher he would do away with

his

“shotgun”

offensive formation

and teach the pro-type and slol-

type offenses. Losing to all five
University Division teams last
year convinced coach Fletcher of
the change in his offensive tactics,

31 return to NIU
One factor that the veteran
coach will have, going for him is
the return of 31 lettermen. The
key returning man for his new
offense is quarterback Bob Carpenter, a 6 foot 1 inch junior

Jim Faggetti
NIU linebacker
who has tremendous strength in
his throwing arm. In seven games
to date he has completed 92 of
177 passes attempted for a 51.9%
average and 1019 yards. However
Carpenter has had nine passes
stolen from the air by enemy deCarpenter has two excellent
running mates at his side in the
backfield as sophomore John LaLonde has picked up 593 yards
in 121 carries for a 4.9 yard average and one touchdown. Junior
halfback Bruce Bray has also aided Northern Illinois’ running attack as he has carried the ball 55
times and picked up 240 yards

and two touchdowns in the process. Senior halfback Horace Mil's!? Please turn to Page 16

However, Carpenter's favorite
target is his split-end John Spilis,
This 6 foot, 4 inch senior has
caught seven touchdown passes in
seven games and has picked up
455 yards on 33 pass receptions.
He is considered to be an excellent pro prospect.
S,p i 1 i s possesses tremendous
hands for catching the ball and
once he gets/the ball he runs

moves and has a flare for catching the ball in a crowd. Spilis
has also been a threat in kickoff

kickoffs for 488 yards.
Defensively, the Huskies have
one of their finest linebackers
returning for his last year of service to his team. Jim Faggetti is
a 6 foot, 204 pound senior who
has built in radar for diagnosing
plays and rarely is fooled. He has
great instinct and is extremely
tough at the point of contact.

Despite the fact that the defensive line was decimated by
several departures of graduating
seniors, coach Fletcher feels that
two sophomores, end John Szukis

Hastings at 248 pounds will provide adequate protection on the
left side with last year’s regular

After a strong start, the Stale

was overpowered by the Toronto

The Buffalo team contained the
Scottish to their own half of the
field for most of the first period.
Two Buffalo field goal attempts
were narrowly missed, one by

John Howell and the second was
by “Speed" Powrie.
Buffalo’s
Bob Beck scored on an outstanding' run, but a penalty nullified
the play. Toronto scored two trys

extra point was converted to make
the score 9-0.
The stronger and more experienced Scottish team dominated
the second half play. They
scored three more trys to make
the final score 21-0.

Saturday s loss, coming on the
heels of last week’s loss to Cornell, gives the team a 4-2 record
for the season. Another season

One of the team's serious handicaps is that rugby is a club sport

in Buffalo, while at the other

major sport. There is no set number of practices needed to play,
and there is little pressure on the

“I am confident that the more conservative and mod-

The silence is being broken. The voice of the “silent

As for definition of programs, Robert Walker, assistant to
the dean of University College, stated: “Student Tutorial Program
(Upward Bound) is a pre-college summer program designed to help
students with a poverty background enter this University, Some confusion exists in the name, since the local name of the program for
the summer of 1968 was Student Tutorial Program
which was
changed from the previous title of Upward Bound, used in 1967, 1966.
Popular (or unpopular) usage has managed to keep alive the “Upward
Bound” designation, resulting in some confusion as to whether there
was actually one program, two programs, or different programs. It is
one program known by two names.”
Rev. Herman Cole, assistant coordinator of the Office of Equal
Opportunity, defined the Experimental Project in Independent Study
as one in which “each student is registered through University College for 16 credits in independent study which he or she expends by
means of regular course attendance, meaningful work study assignment in the community or on campus and by independent study with
his faculty tutor. The students are commuters and are involved in
academic programs tailored to their individual needs and academic
or vocational goals.”
Q.: How many Catholics are registered on campus now and what
full time, undergraduate enrollment figure is projected for 1970?
A,: As stated in the question above relating to Afro-American
students, information regarding race or religion of any student is .not
requested nor is this information on any student record. In the past,
such information has been gathered through the religious group advisers on a voluntary basis and any available statistics would have
to come from them. In projecting future student enrollment, a total
full time, undergraduate student body of 14,200 for 1970, is anticipated which is an increase of less than 1% over present enrollment.
Q.: Why is it that the gymnasium is not open for recreational
student use during the week?
A.: The gymnasium is fully occupied during day time hours, Monday through Friday, for physical education classes. It is available,
however, for free time student use on Saturdays from 1 p.m. to 4
p.m. and from 9;15 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday evenings. The swimming pool is available to students,
upon presentation of I. D. card, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Monday, Wedswmtming pool

and gym are hotfi available to women students only.

Note: Claude Welch, dean of University College, felt that the question
raised last week regarding credits earned via freshrtien seminars
needed further clarification and stated: “The University currently
has three basic requirements: English, Language, and Mathematics,
and that these cannot be satisfied by a freshman seminar. However,
part of the distribution requirements may be satisfied by appropriately chosen seminars. It should be noted that the Faculty Senate will
shortly discuss a proposed major revision of baccalaureate degree requirements and, if the proposed changes are accepted, the freshman
seminars certainly can be counted for distribution credit.”

Or, let’s just say, I say something

Traveling spokesman
As spokesman of this nebulous
group, Bruce, has traveled extensively. Last year and during
the summer he traveled to various State University campuses
initiating moderate clubs. He also
organized a student advisory and
grievance committee as an organ
of direct communication between
students and Chancellor Gould.
In conjunction with the Young

other campuses including Wayne

became a campus paper that it
ran into trouble. In December
1967, the Student Senate forced
the shut-down of the Quadrangle
presses by withdrawing student
association funds. The Senate action was based on the financial
side of the Quadrangle which was
operating with a $977 deficit and
what, it termed, poor journalistic

content.

Editor Marsh speaks
Today, Bruce is firmly behind
the idea of a two-newspaper campus. “There are two groups operating on this campus with two
different sets of needs. Two newspapers with two totally different
views and structures and separate
staffs would satisfy the different
group needs.

“The Quadrangle had its base
of support in the moderate camp.
The Spectrum caters to the left.
This is not just.”
•

Commenting on the policies and
papers of the last three Spectrum

It was through the Quadrangle
that Bruce became involved in
campus politics. Last spring,
Bruce actively opposed the proposed polity form of student government. “I was against the polity
because I felt that the students
were not aware of its implications,” he says. “The issue was
presented one-sided and was constitutionally inconsistent.”

In the April elections, Bruce
unsuccessfully campaigned for the
Presidency, running with the New
Campus Alliance party. Of the

present administration and cam.
pus and national politics in general, Bruce offers these comments:

“The people in power (the
Student Association) now are underhanded and shifty. They’re
also inconsistent. They complain
about the structure and system
and the lack of freedom and yet
they deny freedom to the masses,"
•

“It’s not so much what they
stand for that I oppose, but really
their approach; their methods,”
•

“The students could have
this campus on a platter—if they
knew how to get it. Talking and
understanding people could get
them anything they want. The
Student Association members fail
to realize this.”
•

“Tm attempting to arouse
the apathetic majority of silent
students on this campus, which
the Student Association takes advantage of.”
“I predict that the radical
element on campus will attempt
to replace the government in the
spring elections. But the students
are tired of the militant left
which was in evidence in Chicago
and Columbia. They w a n t a
change. The students will start a
swing right and will insure the
replacement of the government
by the moderate element on campus.”
“Throughout the nation
there is also a general reaction
against the radical left. People
are fed up with the demonstrations and with the general conformity to the liberal movement.
These oppressed people will
choose Richard Nixon as the next
President of the U.S.”
“I see myself and Nixon as

ity experiences the worst problems of the central city.”

Urban riots, especially in Detroit, have resulted in private
agency and newspaper conducted
surveys regarding inner cities.
One which interested Mayor Cavanagh was commissioned by the
Detroit Free Press. He said that
“it reports that a high level of
grievances persists, but finds an
increasing willingness to vocalize
grievances.”

He summarized -the urban crisis

as one “of contrasts: of black and
white, affluence and poverty, expansion and decay.”

Mayor Cavanagh did not give
his audience solutions, but he did
specify how not to attack the
problem.

Naked police force
“It will not be solved,” he said,

“by a naked police force. A billy
club is no remedy for an injustice; tear gas does not provide
housing or jobs or better educa-

tion.”
Mayor Cavanagh called for

greater university participation

in
atempts to solve the problems of
our cities. Universities have been
“secluded havens and have not
lent their resources to aid the
city.” He said that the most important assistance would be for
universities to have their personnel work on these problems on
more than a temporary basis.
Mayor Cavanagh rejects the call
for a separate black socie;y:
“It may be unfashionable, but I
continue to believe that integration and not separation is the
only course for this country.
“An apartheid solution, whether motivated by racial animosity
or by racial pride, is incompatible
with everything that this nation
is supposed to represent, and
would spell ultimate disaster for
us all.”
Mayor Cavanagh spoke at Kleinhans Musical Hall as part of Canisius College’s Buffalo Forum.

Arbitrary choices

‘Frivolous, frivolous, frivolous’

The Student Polity has given us a choice of establishing
either a $5.50 or $12.50 mandatory athletics fee next semes-

To the editor:

ter.

We strongly urge the Coordinating Council to imme
diately postpone the referendum; we urge students to demand such action.
If the referendum is held, we urge that 1) the result of
the referendum be contingent upon the needs of the intercollegiate program, as determined by a factual report analyzed
by the Athletic Review Board, and 2) that each student vote
for the $5.50.
Faced with two arbitrary choices, unhappily we must for
the time being choose the lesser of two evils.

Shoddy

investigation

Twenty members of Buffalo’s Sixth Police Precinct, alleged to have taken part in the systematic harassment and
beating of six local youths two weeks ago, have, in effect,
been found innocent by the inaction of the local legal process.

'

The Police Commissioner’s investigation began a full
week after the incident at West Ferry—and ended the same
day. The entire precinct—to the satisfaction of their Captain
and the Police Commissioner—was completely exonerated
of the charges after a six-hour examination—in which none
of the six youths was interviewed.
The District Attorney’s scheduled grand jury investigation never got off the ground, apparently because the six
complainants refused to sign statements waiving their right
to avoid self-incrimination. In order to present their grievances against the police, the six had to waive one of the Bill
of Rights.
We don’t think it was necessary to call off the grand
jury hearing. The absence of waivers of immunity might have
only limited cross-examination, and would in no way have
unjustly limited the testimony.
If it is not possible to reopen a Buffalo grand jury investigation, the Common Council should initiate an investigation of its own.
The credibility gap existing between the police and the
populace of the state’s second-largest city is something which
can not be ignored.
The Buffalo Police have left serious doubt as to their
ability to police themselves. If the Common Council chooses
to look the other way, the State Attorney General should
begin an investigation immediately.

A

new

era?

open to new ideas, open to men and women
of both parties, open to the critics as well as
those who support us.”

to Congress, an “open” executive naturally seems the first
order of business. We shall all remember that the next President at least began with this promise.

In one of the last Nixon campaign rallies, in Madison
Square Garden, more than 2000 bona fide ticket holders were
turned away because their “long hair and unkempt appearance” indicated they were bent on “disrupting” the political
rally.

Let us only hope that such/actions are expressions of an
old era, and not of the beginning of a frightening new one.

Rap with ollie
by Oliver D. Townes

Brothers and sisters*, who are we kidding? I
think we are only kidding ourselves. We say the
brothers and sisters are getting themselves together, yet we know that this is a lot of shit. If
they were they wouldn’t fight against each other
like they are doing now. We aren’t together and
aren’t even making an attempt to get together.
I’ve been here on this campus for many years

and I’ve scoped out black brother relationships with
one another. We have formed groups within our
own race on campus just like our brothers and
sisters have off-campus.
I’ve seen brothers go past each other everyday,
not even bothering to speak, let alone attempting
to learn each others’ names. What is wrong with
us? Being students and future leaders of our race
we should begin right now to form better relations
with one another. There are very few brothers and
sisters whom 1 met that didn’t have something good
to say about our interrelations with one another.
If we don’t find any way to communicate in this
carwash of a University what will happen when we
enter the laundramat? I say let’s start getting
acquainted with one another. I’ve noticed some
brothers and sisters call each other brother, soul,
etc., etc., but we don’t treat each other like brothers.
There is a phrase that goes like this: “A white
man’s lover.” 1 know there isn’t one black student
on campus who doesn’t have a white friend or a
white associate. I think there are some black students who have better relationships with their white
friends than the black ones.
We have as much hate and prejudice, which
stems from jealousy amongst ourselves, as any
race on this continent. Every group of foreign students who comes to this campus has strong relations with one another. Why? I don't know.
From what I see, it looks like a bad scene. We
have some brothers who work in the cafeterias and
in maintenance who told me that myself and only
a few other black students speak to them. We seem
to have what I call a semi-intellectual social attitude toward our brothers who don’t go to college.
The minute we get this type of attitude we have
caused a communications barrier within ourselves
which would hurt us later when we go back into
the laundramat.
It’s not hard to see where the brothers are at.
All a person has to do is look around in the Rathskeller, scope groups or black students that are
scattered around. Once in a while you will see a
brother sitting by himself, minding his own business^— he is not at all interested in socializing or
intermingling with his brothers, he might not even
know them; and yet he could have been going to
this school for three or four years. I’ve made it
my business several times to ask one of those
brothers and sisters why he wasn’t with the group
of other so-called soul brothers. I’ve gotten answers
like: "Damn those middle-class niggers,” or “I’m
not involving myself with them
all they want to
do is laugh, play cards and talk a lot of University

garbage,” etc,
I’m saying to any black reader of this article,
if the shoe fits, wear it; if it don’t, find those that
do fit you. It seems to me that I’ve been forced
into a position of middle man and mediator be-

apart from each other; most of them think that
black men have a heavy line of communications
between each other. I was speaking to a foreign
student from Ghana and he told me that I was the
first black man from the Buffalo area to even
attempt to speak to him. And we say and think
we could go to Africa and be at home with the
brothers
bullshit. We can’t live with each other.
Personally, I feel like a renegade amongst the
black students, and it hurts me even to feel this
way. I’m willing to meet anyone (brother) who
would be interested in really attempting to get
the black students together the way they want to
be together. That is, if I’m still alive.

Calls Thieu ‘unrealistic’
To the editor:
By boycotting the Paris peace talks, Thieu and
Ky, instead of being U.S, “puppets,” have proved
that they are dogmatic politicians interested only
in victory and in perpetuating their power rather
than in peace.
Their tenacious and unrealistic opposition to negotiating with the Viet Cong is seriously jeopard
izing not only the success of the talks in Paris but
the peace of the world as well. If the South Vietnamese fail to rectify their initial error, the United
States must re-examine its commitments to that
Republic.
Thieu and Ky may continue their senseless war
against the V.C. and the North, but, by all means,
not with any more American dollars or lives.

It is inconceivable that any one can make a valid choice

Students have a right to know exactly what they are

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

“Education in the United States must be

thoroughly re-examined because students and
&gt;1
society are changing so rapidly”
Claude E. Welch, dean of University Col- ||
lege, commented on the pending proposal to 53
change the standard academic load at the University from five courses to four per semester
“The change he said, “would put more premium on good teaching. People would enroll
in courses because they were attracted to them
and this would have a beneficial effect”
.

”

The Executive Committee of the Faculty
Senate approved a proposal last week to move
the effective date of the change to September
1969 as opposed to the previously set date of
September 1970. The proposal will now be debated and voted by the Faculty Senate Nov. 27.

universities currently operating on schools had cautioned their faculties

to evaluate each of their courses to
ascertain whether they already required four credit hours’ worth of
work. This was necessary to ensure
that the faculties avoid loading students with more work than they
could handle. Some courses, nevertheless, had to have the work requirements augmented.
The original proposal for a fourcourse system was part of a plan
presented by President Martin Meyerson to the Faculty Senate in January 1967. The plan called for an
educational reform including such
changes as the four-course load and
pass-fail system. President Meyerson’s purpose in proposing the
changes was stated as an effort to
“encourage intensity and variety in
the students’ educational life.”
Programs instituted
Several departments of the State
University of New York have already
undertaken the change to a fourcourse system. The Department of
Engineering has done so and the Department of Linguistics has instituted
an entire new program which includes a change to the four-course
system beginning next fall. The Department of History and the Departing similar changes.

The Student Association Committee on Admissions is
investigating the possibility of initiating an open admissions
policy by fall 1969, providing the opportunity for all high
school graduates to enter state universities. This program

member,

graduate student A1 Brownstein
believes it is the “state’s responsibility to provide, the opportunity
for all those who graduate from
high school,” regardless of ethnic
background. He feels that the
open admissions policy would
guarantee the “right of higher education," not the privilege. ■

Evaluation expanded

This committee began with the
purpose of evaluating the-University’s admissions policy; however,
it expanded its evaluation to include the entire State University
system. Mr. Brodl indicated that
the “concern should be with the

talented youngsters, not only in
the cities, but in the suburbs and
rural areas” to allow them to
participate in programs leading
them “to a fuller and more productive life.”
The 1966 revision further states
“that the unwritten policy of
open door admission to State University be confirmed as the obligation of State University to
find a place in the right program,
on one or more campuses, for
every qualified applicant of post
high school age.”
Mr. Brodl indicated that programs such as Project 100 and
Upward Bound are appeasement

his committee is not accepting the

the entire system.
Mr. Brownstein remarked that
there is a “perverted notion about
what equal opportunity is” and
that it is important to provide for

for combating racism.
Abolition of curriculum
A possible repercussion of this
program would be the abolition
of curricula. Barbara Emilson,
student services coordinator and
committee member, contends that
a “genius in an area has difficulty in getting into a university”
similar to this University. She
believes that the university does
not allow flexibility. Once the
“genius” is admitted, there is no
program for him. As a solution,
she feels this student must “tailor
his own educational program.”
Elaborating on this comment,
Mr. Brownstein said the University should “allow the creative
mind to invent his own curricu-

lum.”
Mr.

Brodt indicated that the

problem did not end with the ad-

mission of the creative-minded
students and the disadvantaged,
but there must be a mechanism
“with the system to provide for
these students once they arrive
in the University.”
The committee members agreed
that there also would be administrative and space dificulties with
which they would have to cope.
In addition, it will allow for the
abolition of Regents Scholarships,
the funds to be channeled in a
new direction.
Presently, the committee is
planning to investigate free universities or an open universities
in other states.
Mr. Brodt indicated that this
program needs wide student support within the SUNY system and
community support in all SUNY
cities. If it does reach the legislature, he said, it will need the
constituent support of the entire
slate.

“This removes a tremendous obstacle
to peace
but now the political struggle
for our country begins,” commented a
Hanoi diplomat in Paris on LBJ’s announcement of the bombing halt. Like
LBJ’s March 31 speech, this recent development represents another minor vic—

tory for the Vietnamese and for Americans who are arguing for an immediate

withdrawal of American troops. The obvious purpose of the move is to show the
public that real progress toward peace is
being made by Democrats—it puts LBJ,
Humphrey and the party in the spotlight
from Thursday night to today, Election
Day. Moves like this make it feasible for
the undecideds to swing to Humphrey, and
for ex-McCarthy people, about to vote radical, to drop back into the party again.

Gene not optimistic
WASHINGTON
Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy said he doubted whether either his
own endorsement of Hubert H. Humphrey
or President Johnson’s decision to end the
bombing of North Vietnam would elect
Humphrey in presidential balloting.
—

Sen. McCarthy said Humphrey “can win”
but he did not appear to be optimistic
about that prospect. He said it was an
election year in which 30 or 40 or 50%
of the people—including the supporters
of George C. Wallace—had demonstrated
their discontent with the. workings of the

for HHH

again as a Democrat run for the Senate
or for the presidency. He noted that this
did not prevent him from running for
either office as a third party candidate.

"I have not signed a drop out card," he
said, a reference to the form college students use when they resign college courss.
Sen. McCarthy refused to foreclose the
posibility that he and Mr. Humphrey might
oppose each other for McCarthy’s Senate
seat from Minnesota in 1970 should the
vice president lose.

If the letter of support for HumphreyMuskie in last Friday’s Spectrum signed
by mostly liberal faculty members is a
fair example of support for that ticket,
then happily only a very few faculty people have been fooled again. Poor Bruce
Jackson of the English faculty must have
felt awfully schizophrenic last Friday. On
the same day his article on the Convention
appeared in The Spectrum’s Dimension
magazine painting Humphrey as a fool and
a goat, and Daley as a gross pig, his letter
endorsing Humphrey was printed! This is
the real politics of the absurd. It abandons hope for radical change and submits
to manipulation from above. The logic of
this politics is that in four years it will
urge us to vote for Nixon over Wallace, as
the lesser of two evils.
The Paris peace talks are a fraud and
a sop to the radical movement around the

world. The U.S. ambassador there, Averill Harriman, is one of the most sophisticated reactionaries on the scene today. He
is the founder of the Cold War get-toughwith-Russia policy after World War II, at
a time when Stalin was selling out Mao,
Tito, and the Greek revolutionaries to appease the West. His corporation background and his contempt for Vietnamese
history exhibit his lack of concern for the
Vietnamese people. Sending Harriman to
Paris is like sending, Bunker, with his corporate directorship of a Dominican Sugar

Company, to Santo Domingo. These guys
and their Humphrey buddies will defend
their interests in Vietnam with as many
American lives as they please.

The only reason the Paris peace talks
were started was because of the Tet offensive and the tenaciy of the American

radical and black liberation movements. If
militarily we were winning the war with
the usual counter-insurgency methods,
Clean Gene would be patting John Kennedy on the back for preserving freedom
in Vietnam. It would be “the right war
at the right time,” not "the wrong war
at the wrong time."
So now LBJ expects "productive” talks
in Paris. That means concessions. It means
that the U.S. has a legitimacy in Vietnam,
that we were “invited in” by the “free"
Vietnamese, to repel “foreigners." If there
are no concessions, then it’s back to the
bombing for either Dick or Hubie. After
all, we’re doing those gooks a big liberal
favor by stopping the bombing—if they
don’t agree to give us a base or two or
three, like we have in Cuba, then that
isn't cricket. Yet LBJ's latest gambit represents a weakening of his position from
April’s San Antonio speech, in which he
\yanted a sign from the Vietnamese that
they would “produce.” He hasn’t gotten
his sign, and still he's given in, a little.
It's only a little concession because militarily the bombing of the North isn’t doing much anyway. The “alien” North Vietnamese keep slipping through that DMZ
anyway, as McNamara kept pointing out.
The real purpose of the bombing was
frankly to terrorize the population of the
North into suing for peace. The stick
hasn’t worked: now a tentative carrot is
being offered.
The alternative to this sort of duplicity
is the establishment of a permanent radical party, which I argued that Socialist
Workers Party represented last week. SWP

fight for the presidential nomination.
“I’ve been out in the field where the
action is,” he said, noting that he had

The two men, deputy leaders of their
respective delegations, six months ago

used similar behind-the-scenes huddles to
fix the opening of U.S.-North Vietnamese
preliminary talks. In the past two weeks,
according to diplomats, similar meetings
led to the halt to American bombing of
North Vietnam which in turn paved the
way for inviting Saigon and the Viet Cong
into the talks.
South Vietnam’s boycott threat was a
major hurdle the diplomats were attempting to remove before the expanded talks’
first scheduled session on Wednesday.

In the Filipino resort of Baguio City,
President Ferdinand E. Marcos of the
Philippines proposed an allied summit
conference meeting in Manila to thrash
out the problem. President Nguyen Van
Thieu of South Vietnam said in Saigon he
could not take part in the Paris talks unless Hanoi voted to de-escalate the war
and unless the Viet Cong attended only as
part of the North Vietnamese delegation.
In Paris, North Vietnamese diplomats
said the National Liberation Front, the political arm of the Viet Cong, will be an
independent delegation. Hanoi diplomats

said Mrs. Nguyen Thi Binh, 41, will fly in
Monday from Moscow to head the NLF
delegation.

Born in Saigon, Mrs. Binh joined the
Communist cause in 1950. Jailed by the
French, she was freed after South Vietnam won its independence from France
in 1954. She want to Hanoi and has since
been a travelling spokesman for the Viet
Cong and the NLF, based in Hanoi. She is
a member of the NLF presidium, its ruling body.
President Thieu stressed in a wildly
cheered speech to his parliament that his
government does not recognize the NLF
or the Viet Cong. His supporters said
agreeing to treat the Communist guerrillas
as anything but a Hanoi tool would be a
“surrender.”
North Vietnamese diplomats said they
and Mrs. Binh’s delegation are willing to
sit down with the Saigon delegation, “a
gang of traitors." They also said they do
not recognize it as anything more than a
“U S. stooge.”

The expanded talks were set to work
toward what even Hanoi radio called a
"political—settlement’’—of—the—war,—But

Hanoi’s official newspaper Nhan Dan,
echoed by Moscow’s Communist parly
newspaper Pravda, once more listed the
political conditions as American withdrawal and Viet Cong control of South

A history of debate

Open campus
of the faculty and students to express. in a peaceful maner, opposition to the ideas or actions

Tomorrow’s Polity meeting Will
consider the issue of an open
campus. A history of debate and
clash has preceded this meeting
and conflicts over the question
of allowing recruiters—military
and industrial—on campus have
arisen in all segments of the Uni-

of the recrrfiter.”
At that time President Martin
Meyerson addressed the Faculty
Senate and insisted “the issue is
relevant to academic freedom.”
He told the body that “academic
freedom must protect more than
literal speech. Thus, as you no
doubt know, the national Council
of the American Association of
University Professors and civil
liberties spokesmen have main
lained that the question is one of
academic freedom and civil lib-

versity community.

In November 1968, the Faculty
Senate endorsed the open campus
principle. That body resolved that
"the maintenance of the opportunity for all legal groups to partake in recruiting on the campus
is in keeping with responsibility
of tlie University to its students
and to society as is the freedom

erty."

Two weeks preceding the Faculty Senate action, Dr. Richard
A. Siggclkow, vice president for
Student Affairs, postponed campus recruiting by Dow Chemical
and the CIA pending “further
consideration of the issue by the
faculty and student body.”
At I his same meeting, the Faclty Senate defeated parts of the
resolution stating that “the postponement of visits to this campus

by recruiters from the Dow Chemical Co. and the CIA has raised no

military recruiters to the campus
and recommends that a clear and
uniform policy be established that
guarantees to members of the academic community the constitutional right to dissent without
jeopardizing their deferment status.”
It Was further resolved' by the
body that ‘‘if these rights should
be jeopardized, that such recruit-

Military recruitment

the subject of a Faculty Senate
resolution. At the Senate's April

At a subsequent meeting of the
Faculty Senate May 20, a resolu-

choose to emigrate and/or go to
jail rather than participate in
military service, shall maintain
all credits, status and privileges
a.t the State University of New
York at Buffalo equal to those
entering upon and returning from
military service” was passed.
The resolution reads in part:
“Selective Service Director Lewis
B. Hershey has recommended to
the local draft boards the reclassification and speedy induction of

draft registrants who violate the
Selective Service Law; and “The
Selective Service Director has in
dicated that interference with
military rcruiting constitutes a
violation of the Selective Service
Law; and “In conflict with the
pronouncements of the Selective
Service Director, spokesmen of
the Justice Department and the
White House have condemned the
practice of withdrawing deferments as punishments for protests
or demonstrations and have declared that criminal prosecution
should be the sole form of sanction imposed for unlawful interference with Selective Service
Law; and “The faculty of the
State University of New York at
Buffalo desires to protect its students from falling victim to existing differences of opinion between independent branches of
the Government and to the resulting confusion about the effect and
consequences of protest activities;” thus the Senate resolved to
continue to admit military recruiters.

“Food for Nigeria/Biafra,” a
drive to raise funds for starving
victims in secessionist Biafra, began yesterday in Norton Hall. A
day of fast Friday is the- focal
point of the drive.

Father Peter Young of the
Newman Club, co-sponsor of the
drive, said: “I think the willingness for us to give up a day’s
meals so that this food may be
donated to keep people alive is
most worthwhile. It’s the least
that we, who have more than anyone to share, can do to keep
people from starving."

said: “The Biafran situation provides a dramatic focus on the
acute problems the world is currently facing. They range from
the devastation of war to the
silencing of a starving child’s
cry. This drive transcends all
questions of politics and permits
the universal expression of charity for anyone who has a heart.”

Co-sponsored by the Student
Association, Inter-residence Council and the Newman Club, this
drive is supported by every religious organization on campus,
as well as the Inter-fraternity

issues, free from political rhetor
ic, is initiated. Six others have
joined him.
A group of law students will
try again to meet with Gov
Reagan, who has already denied
them an interview. The Governor
has been challenged by eight student body presidents of the University of California to a tclevi

sion debate.
The students arrested'at Moses
Hall plan to sue Chancellor Heyns
for suspending them and prejudicing their case in advance.

Reagan defeat

Gov. Reagan had asked the Regents to bar all political speakers
from campus
a restriction cn
—

forced during the 1950’s—but the
motion was defeated 13 to eight.
The vote was a victory for the
independence of the Board of
Educational Development, a group
formed in 1965 to initiate experimental courses.

Gov. Reagan had said: “Our
backs are to the wall. The Re
gents must assume their rightful
responsibility for the operation
of this University. It’s now or
never!”

He denounced the Regents for
“failing their responsibility to the
people of California.”
Meanwhile, Assembly Speaker
Jesse Unruh accused California
Republicans of playing political
games and said: “If there had
been no Eldridge Cleaver, (Sena
torial candidate Max) Rafferty
would have had to create one.”
He warned the students that violence on campus may endanger
his ow n position and that of other
slate liberals.
Gov. Reagan was also foiled in
an attempt to deny the Berkeley
faculty any part in decision
making.

The, new Amherst campus took its first step

toward realization Thursday when University
officials and state and local government leaders
gathered for the symbolic groundbreaking.
Ground was broken for the first six colleges;
eventually there will be a total of 30. Completion
of the six is scheduled for 1970,
Special guest at .the groundbreaking. Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller, said: "I think this is
)he most exciting development taking place in
this state. We should all be very proud of it

He said: "The 1968 Master
of the Stale

University Trustees estimates that the student
body will number 20,335 full-time students by
1975."

Emphasizes planning
The governor emphasized that careful plan
ning for the new campus is essenttial "to realize
the maximum benefit of this greatest enterprise
in the history of Western New York, and to

avoid the chaos which could result from rapid
growth without planning.
"No decisions have been made as to future
plans for this region
and no overall plan will
be made without continued close consultation
with all interests concerned in this region,"
Mr, Rockefeller outlined the growth of the
State University of Buffalo from before its incorporation into the State University system, in
1962 until the present.
"Here at Buffalo," he said, "we have the best
of both worlds
the rich tradition of excellence
and diversity brought to the Stale University
system by a venerable private institution, the
University of Buffalo, and the dynamics, drive
and financial strength of the world's fastest

Student Association President Richard Schwab, speaking for the student body, explained
that the day was "one we've all been waiting
for." Noting the great architectural project, he
warned that "we shouldn't lose sight of the magnificent educational experience evolving here."
Three attributes that "will be insisted upon
the
construction of the new campus were
in
outlined by James W. Gaynor, chairman of the
board of. trustees of the State University construction fund. These are "architectural excellence, construction on schedule and construction
within the budget."

President Martin Meyerson compared the
groundbreaking to other symbolic breakings.
"We are breaking precedent because it is a
University uniquely conceived, breaking trail

because of the use of the

resources

such as “Sweet Charity" provides

When asked about the talent
available on campus, Pat responded: “la a school lhal does not

more musicals done here in order
to give these kids a chance to display their talents.”
"Sweet Charity” is a dancing

Wire/Blues Power

Live

“Would you believe I invented
blues power?” The audience answers “Yes!” Albert King didn't
consciously invent blues power—he lived it. Recorded live at the
Fillmore in San Francisco, his
second album, “Live Wire/BIues
Power,” is an extremely important record.

For one thing, it brings the
blues back home, away from the
imitators, back to the originators.
Mike Bloomfield and Eric Clapton
both play blues, guitar and both
are imitations of Albert King.
For another thing, Albert King
can stop being confused with and
overshadowed by B.B. King, the
acknowledged king of the blues.
B.B. may be better vocally, but
Albert's guitar work is more powerful, Albert must have realized
this because the album is basically instrumental.

The album is cut without the
use of horns, something that
King’s traveling band lacks. The
side men present provide a suitable background, but never interfere with King’s guitar. King uses
none of the controlled distortion
effects that are so prevalent today and the change is more than
refreshing.

Bluesman's bluesman
Stylistically,

Albert

King

bluesman’s bluesman. His guitar
lines are clear and develop at
their own pace with no unnecessary speed. In between the vocal
lines, guitar riffs hurry the music
along. The solos and instrumental
are phrased nicely. King
likes to extend the last note of
each riff, and the effect is searingly heated. And underneath it
ail is the snickering laugh and
the bad man’s cat call.
King has a husky voice that is
suited to just talking out his material. In the ten minutes of
“Blues Power,” King tells you
exactly where he is at. “I ain’t
seen my main squeeze for ten
long weeks today. 1 got the blues
. . . Can you dig it?” Then the
guitar explodes into sound and
you can’t help but dig it.
King is a self-taught musician,
and plays left-handed, upside
down guitar. He has been playing
the road for ten years, but you’d
never know it from the record.
He comes across as extremely human in his informal presentation
of his music. Calling to his au-

cuts

dience, he draws them into his
music and makes them an emotional part of it.
“This is blues power . . . Can

Self-help: Key to Recovery

The Resurrection

The first step to the relief of
these manifestations is summarized in an organizational slogan:
“Sensations arc distressing but
not dangerous."
This slogan is identified with
Recovery, Inc., The Association

of Nervous and Former Mentrfl
Patients. Recovery, Inc., was bro-‘
fessionally founded by the late
neuro nsvchiatrist. Abraham A.
Low. MD at the Psychiatric In
stilutc of the University of Illinois Medical School in 1937. It
soon became a self-help organization, In 1954, after Dr. I/)w's
death, it continued as a non-profit, non-sectarian, self-supporting,
and self-governing organization.
In order “to prevent relapses in
former mental patients," Recovery, Inc, holds weekly meetings.
These meetings are devoted to
the discussion of the daily, trivial
incidents in the lives of the members. To the members of Recovery, these incidents are catalysts
to their “residual symptoms"—
which include such things as
heart palpitations, dizziness, tre-

mors. fatigue, depression, fear,
obsessions, compulsions, bizarre
thoughts, etc,—and their fears of
relapse.

A lesson in handicapping
by Richard Baumgarten

Did you ever wonder how a professional handicapper handicaps
horseraces? Why the odds on a certain horse are 3-1 and not 6-5?
How a slower horse can be favored over a faster horse?
To find out the answers to these and other questions I gave Buffalo Raceway a phone call and talked to Mr. Bill Seamen, who has
been a professional handicapper for the past 25 years. It’s Mr. Seamen’s job to post the probable odds on all raceway action. How Seamen goes about handicapping is really fascinating.
“I rely mostly on my experience in knowing the horses," said Mr.
Seamen. “I’ve been watching horses for 25 years and I think I know
the horse pretty well."
What are the factors Mr. Seamen looks for in handicapping
horses? “First I look at the class of the horse," he said, “and what
type of competition the horse has run against. Also important is the
driver. Then comes the post position of the horse. If two horses are
about equal, the one with the inside post position always has a slight
edge. Then comes' the weather which can become a factor, particularly
since Buffalo Raceway has a clay track."
Interestingly enough, a horse’s speed is a “determining, but not
an all-important factor" in handicapping: In other words, the faster
horse is not always the favorite. Mr. Seamen gave as an example:
“Say you have two horses, one being faster than the other. If the
slower horse is running against a cheaper type of nag, though his
time isn’t as good, he can still beat the faster horse, his class and
competition being a big factor.”

Key play for Buffalo

Then came one of the key plays
of the game. Following a Nick
Kish interception of a Waller
pass, the Bulls drove to the Temple five-yard line, only to have
Denny Mason fumble the ball in
the end zone. Dick Ashley, barely
beating a Temple defender,
pounced on the rolling ball to
give Buffalo a 30-13 halftime lead.
The second half tufned out to
be a comedy of errors with each
team taking turns giving away
easy touchdowns.
It was the Bulls’ turn first. Ken
Rutkowski fumbled the Temple
punt on the Bulls’ one-yard line.
It was fallen upon by the Owls’
Dave Watson. Larry Hollar scored
on the next play and all of a
sudden Temple had cut the Buf-

home, Temple next presented the
Bulls with another gift touchdown. Buffalo’s Paul Jack boomed
a punt to the Temple three-yard
line. Instead of allowing it to
roll into the end zone, Temple’s
George Conti attempted to pick
up the ball. After he fumbled.
Bull tackle Chris Wolf recovered
the football.
Tailback Pat Patterson then
tallied on a two-yard run, and
the scoreboard read Buffalo 43,
Temple 26.
Waller connects again
Just to keep the game interesting, Waller then passed his
team to another touchdown. Ho
climaxed a nine-play drive with
an 11-yard scoring toss to Watson
and Temple was back in the
game, 43-32.
With four minutes left in the
game, Waller went to the “well”
once too often. The scrappy Temple passer tried to pass on Joe
Jacobs’ side of the field. A Bull
reserve defensive baqk, he intercepted the ball on the Owl 38
and rambled the distance for a
Buffalo touchdown, giving the
Bulls an even 50 points.
In the closing seconds, the indefatigable Waller once more
drove the Temple passing machine down the field. He finished
off a brilliant passing perform.

Mr. Seamen then went on to explain the track payoffs for handicapped races, “The odds are based on a percentage table of 120%.
The public is paid 100%, 16% goes for state taxes and operation
costs are 47c. Say a horse is handicapped at 3-1. You add the digits
3 and 1, giving 4, which you divide into 100%—-the amount paid to
the public. That means that 25% of the total 120% table is money
paid to the public for that race. This is the percentage of money which
goes for handicapping one horse as opposed to another.”
One more important point about Mr. Seamen’s livelihood. The
professional handicapper lists only the probable odds on a given race.
It is important to remember that these odds are subject to a variety
of last minute contingencies. Such factors as scratches, sudden
changes of drivers and especially the health of the horse at the time
of the race have a direct bearing on the final odds.. And, of course,
when the rain begins to fall, as Mr. Seamen points out, “all the odds
go out the window."
Now that you understand the workings of a professional haiidi
capper, I'll see you out at the track. But don’t try your own handicapping. It takes 25 years to be a good handicapper. Ask Mr. Bill
Seamen of Buffalo Raceway.

To the editor

Overseeing athletics
As we suggested in an earlier editorial, students gave
a clear mandate in the October 7 and 8 referendum toward
the establishment of a responsible committee of faculty and
students to oversee the athletic programs of the University.

If this group has only advisory powers, its value will be
severely limited, and the wishes of the students and the
needs of the University will be unfulfilled. Any advisory
group may be disregarded; in this particular case, involving
a re-examination of the priorities of the athletic department,
it almost certainly would.
We suggest the proposed Athletic Review Board (up for
debate at tomorrow’s meeting of the Student Polity)'Should
only be an interim committed, With the following specific

functions:

Snap to, at the word of the instructor. We’ve
heard that since kindergarten. No more questions;
don’t speak out; never question rules and regulations and certainly never question the instructor’s
authority. Why? Simply because he or she is the instructor and along with that titlfi. comes some undefined, god-given authority which is never to be
questioned and certainly never to be disobeyed.
Bullshit.

Teachers are scholars, not gods. They are individuals who have had greater training in certain
areas than we have had. Their role is to pass on
some of their acquired knowledge and insight and
to stimulate student thought: no more. They are
not authoritarian figures endowed with divine
right. They cannot and should not be allowed to
decide arbitrarily on test dates, cutting regulations,
dress and general conduct regulations. In class,
when they do make these arbitrary decisions, we
must speak out and make our unified complaints
heard. We cannot allow ourselves to forget that
teachers are fallible.

Time-Out day, I have requested an open-class discussion of this test date. On each of these occasions
not only has my seemingly reasonable request been
refused, but also, I have failed to receive unified
student support. I have heard numerous complaints
outside the classroom but inside, -when face-to-face
with the instructor, suddenly almost everyone is
silent.

This then is our problem. We as students are
actually allowing irresponsible acts of authority,
to exist by means of our own silence. We have
the power to change these disagreeable classroom
situations, we need only utilize it.
We must remember that teachers, being human,
can at times be wfong and that students, also being
human, can at times be right.

‘Sweet Charity’ not a first

A study by a public opinion institute conducted after
the 1960 presidential election indicated that American voters
were becoming, more sophisticated in their attitudes toward
being manipulated. The voters sampled thought the act of
voting had symbolic, rather than actual importance. Most saw
it as a necessary gesture of affiliation with the nation or, to
a lesser degree, a political party. Most saw the vote as a
means of expression, as a one-shot attempt to overcome the
alienation of the system. Very few actually thought they
were choosing a President. Given their awareness of their
alienated impotence, the act of voting assumed a positive,
personal role in their lives as citizens.

In your articles about the upcoming musical
“Sweet Charity” you keep saying that it is the
“first ail-student-produced musical.” This is wrong,
“The Cradle Will Rock,” directed by Nick Lyndon,
produced last May was the first all-student-produced
production the'State University of Buffalo had.
There wasn't even a faculty member from the
Music Department to help co-ordinate it.
This is just to set the record straight.
Marlene Arvan
Editor's note: The Student Theater Guild claritied
this point. "Sweet Charity" is the first all-studentproduced "musical-comedy," differing from the
“Cradle Will Rock" which was a dramatic musical .

To the editor

Today this awareness of alienation and impotence is
more acute for Those of us who experienced th« frustrating
primary, campaigns, the smoke-filled rooms and helmeted
police of the National Conventions and the court decisions
and the news and advertising media which systematically
phased out all but the top three candidates.

As we pointed out Friday, a vote for Humphrey or Nixon
can do nothing positive, for the country, or, perhaps more
importantly, for ourselves. We need what neither candidate
can give: a sense of trust in a system worth identifying with.
We do, however, have a chance to make the ballot-box
act meaningful so we may walk away feeling that for once
w'e have

been honest with ourselves.

The present debilitating two-party structure must be rejected in order for real change to occur. The most effective
ways of doing this involve primarily the politicalizing of a
generation: the establishment of a grass-roots political movement responsive to the needs of this country, and most particularly its future—the youth. That’s the task for the politically active,

•

For the politically inactive, there is a way to lend a helping hand: cast a vote against the Democrats and Republicans,
identifying oneself with new movements for social change.
There are several candidates on the Presidential ballot
whom we suggest (in order of preference):

Open campus?
Tomorrow's polity meeting begins the annual discussion
of the “open campus" issue. Faculty say “academic freedom"
must be preserved at all costs; administrators feel that radicals threaten the maintenance of their “open campus;" some
students want groups-to visit here so they can demonstrate,
others so thev can be interviewed.
As a first crucial step in the discussion, we must realize
that this University is not an "open campus."
We will be one only when
All members of the University community participate equally in the decision-making process here;
students and faculty plan their own courses and cur
ricula, judging themselves on their own criteria;
the walls between the University and the community are broken, yielding significant interaction and involvement of all segments of the University in the problems of
the community-at-large:
admissions here include talented and potentially
creative students from all segments of the surrounding community and the state, representative of the society-at-large;

SOMEWHERE IN AMHERST-The first ground
for the new campus was turned here with all the
pageantry of a political convention. Many stood in
awe of the assorted dignitaries who were present.
It was easy to lose sight of the real meaning of the

Gov. Rockefeller noted that the Amherst campus
was the most significant event on the Niagara
Frontier since the opening of the Erie Canal 143
years ago. This remark was very funny until one
realized that it was tragically accurate. The entire
region is suffering a slow but certain deterioration.

Locating the new campus in Amherst is a physical retreat from the grim realities of metropolitan
Buffalo. For the sake of the community, I hope that
the retreat is only physical. Amherst is a magnificent site in which to dwell in “splendid isolation/’

In the interest of promoting understanding here,

Hays Hall, and that one day be set aside for all
concerned to frolic and be happy happy in said

Urges Socialist Labor vote
To the editor
I note where the Harvard Crimson came out
with an editorial urging its readers not to vote for
any of the major party Presidential candidates.

The editorial does urge support for the minority
party nominees including, among others, Henning
A. Bloom, the Socialist Labor Party candidate for
President.

I hope the majority of' the voters on Nov. 5
will not waste their votes on the three millionaires
who stand for capitalism, but cast positive votes for
the socialist reconstruction of society as espoused
by the Socialist Labor Party candidates,

Recall of Schwab
is aim of petition
A petition currently in circulation calls
for the recall of Student Association President Richard P. Schwab.

According to Gary Stevenson, an originator of the petition, Mr. Schwab “does not
support the general feeling of the campus;
we don’t feel he's doing his job."
The recall petition, in circulation for
about two weeks, requires the signatures
of 10% of the undergraduate student body
■—approximately 1100 students—before it
can be accepted. Mr. Stevenson reportedly has received more than half the required signatures.
If the petitions are completed—there
is no time limit within which recall petitions must be completed—the constitution
of the Student Association would then require the Coordinating Council to schedule a general Presidential election within

two weeks.

Dissatisfaction with Mr. Schwab has
arisen over the issue of athletic fees.
Students early last month voted to replace the voluntary athletic fee of $12.50
with a mandatory fee for the second semester. Although the referendum did
not stipulate what the mandatory fee
would be, Mr. Stevenson feels that “99%
of the students who voted for the mandatory fee felt it was $12.50.”

Proposed $5.50 fee

of institutions while making a

At a meeting of the student Polity Oct,
23, Mr. Schwab proposed that the fee be
set at $5.50, based on the original budgetary request of $100,000 from the Athletic
Department. The request was based on
the projection that student fees would be
voluntary throughout the year, and that
the Athletic Deparement would operate
at a deficit for a second consecutive year.
Mr. Schwab feels that $100,000 is enough
for students to pay for the athletic program. “We’re making a Significant contribution and the State should make a
significant contribution,” he said.
Mr, Stevenson pointed to Mr. Schwab’s
proposal of a $5.50 fee as being inconsistent with the “general feeling of the campus,” and questioned the procedures of
the Polity meeting. The meeting ended
in a mild uproar as a number of persons
present objected to a vote on a motion
for adjournment, while a previous motion to table the issue of setting a fee at
$12.50 was passed.
According to James E. Peelle, director
of athletics, “if we arc going to continue
our program, we must have a $12.50 fee.”
Mr. Peelle noted that Vice President Peter
Regan told Mr. Schwab that regardless
of the fee, the Athletic Department could
still operate, with the deficit being picked
up by the State.
Mr. Peelle is skeptical that this would
be done. The State Bureau of the Budget
has indicated in the past that no allocations would be made for intercollegiate
athletics. Last year’s deficit was covered
by funds from other portions of the State
University of Buffalo academic budget.
Another facet of the athletic fee ques
tion about which Mr. Stevenson and coorganizer Art Sacks are disturbed con
cerns student involvement in the actual
makeup of the athletics budget. Mr. Stevenson cited a letter to the Athletic Dc
partment from Mr. Schwab stating that
the department would no longer have the
power to determine how student funds
would he used and that decisions would
be left up to students.
Mr. Stevenson said:
“How can he allocate money in the
Athletic Department when they’ve done
it for 34 years?
“He tries to figure out every way to cut
the athletic budget and tries to spend
the activities fee like it’| going out of
style," he charged.

Decided by trustees

m

M*&gt;ang

Mr. Schwab's letter stems from the or
iainal (jecision by the State. University
Bbard of Trustees last year to allow stu
dents to elect to pay voluntary fees if they
so desire. A part of that decision stipu
lated that student -monies, collected cither
voluntarily or mandatorily, could be con

trolled by students, and that students
could determine how the money is used.
As a result of that decision, students
also voted in the October athletics referendum to set up a joint student-faculty
committee to determine how the mandatory fees would be allocated by the Athletics Department.
Mr. Schwab said: "I don't believe that
the student body was also voting on a
mandate tor the Athletic Department to
continue under present policies, policies
which don’t have any cohesion, continuum
or set goals.”
Mr. Peelle

hag stated that students
should have some voice in determining
the distribution of fee income, but foresaw a program run by students as
“chaotic."
Commenting on the recall issue, Mr.
Peelle said: “1 would have to be opposed
to this stuff. My feeling is leave everything as is'." He described recall as being
"like a divorce—it solves one problem and
causes 49 others." He feels it would be
“easier for people in there to adjust their
thinking."

Other gripes
Mr. Stevenson also aired a number of
other complaints concerning Mr. Schwab
and the Student Association:
The sponsors of the petition are concerned he said, with the slow progress of
getting a beer license for the Rathskeller.
He indicated that when a function is held
in Norton Hall, “the only way to get a
beer license is through the Food Service."
and he claimed that most of the profit
goes to them.
The petitioners feel that the distribution of arrest cards" to students who
are arrested, giving them instructions and
the acquisition of a lawyer for such students requires overspending. They asserted: “The school’s already got a lawyer.”
•

•

Position on fraternities
Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Sacks expressed a desire to know Mr. Schwab's
position on fraternities on campus. Members of Gamma Phi fraternity, they feel
that the Inter-Fraternity Council should
be represented on the Coordinating Coun•

cil.
Mr. Schwab commented on the petition:
“The gripes seem awfully petty to me
They seem aimed at disrupting the pro
gress.and continuity of the Student Associ-

ation.”

Discussing the current programs of the
Student Association, Mr. Schwab said:
“You have to set yourself with certain
priorities,” He feels that the establishment of a cohesive University community,
more say in courses being taught and the
work being done in academic affairs and
student rights are of prime concern to the

student body.
Mr. Schwab insisted that students should
have the services of a lawyer. He indicated that the Faculty Student Association
lawyer, from a corporation law firm, is

not the "vehicle" for providing legal aid

for the students. "No money has been
spent for a lawyer, and none will be until
it is brought up before the Polity," he
added.
He indicated that the function of a lawyer could be to move the case of banning
national fraternities .from the campus

'could not allow all groups 'tb.'Spspress their

opinions on Ampus and “yet ban*- national fraternities because they allegedly
discriminate," he said.
He added that he could not see where
national fraternities, which arc not on
campus, discriminate more than local fraternities. which are allowed on the campus.

Ass(. Campus Editor

The Sociology Department is
“sincere and wants to have students involved in the department,
but not to the degree that is put
forth on the referendum,” according to Frank Burton, member of
the Committee of Concerned Sociology Students.
He further assessed the faculty
position as desiring student opinion, but they “should be interpreters of student opinion.”
Mr. Burton was referring to the
results of the referendum for sociology majors, in which students
endorsed the statement; “Undergraduate and graduate students
should have 50% of the votes
through duly elected representatives in all Sociology Department
committees and general meetings
that determine departmental policies and their implementation."
The measure was approved by 283
of the 318 participants—there

are

382 students in the department.
Referendum results were presented to the faculty Monday at
a departmental meeting. John Androzzi, another member of the
Committee of Concerned Sociology Majors, indicated that after
an initial challenge, faculty members praised the referendum and
then “dropped it.” The referendum, which included other questions related to the department,
was brought up again and students asked what measures the

graduate, with faculty members.
Mr. Andreozzi, however, feels this
is a “token measure” and “it

doesn’t meet the issue.” Further
action was referred to the ad hoc
on Departmental Reorganization.

Committee

Explaining the purpose of this

informal meeting, Dr. Fried said
that it is meant “to discuss the
future of the department.” He also favors “the widest discussion
of all the issues that were raised
in the referendum . . . referenda
are most useful after discussion,”
Dr, Fried said: “I favor student participation and involvement in departmental decisions
and I’m proposing the fullest possible discussion be initiated immediately among faculty, graduate students and undergraduates
in order not only to exchange
views on this important subject
but also to help restructure our
department into a more viable
form.”

Mr. Burton commented that the
faculty wants “to appear ready
to accept student opinion, but in
reality they are not prepared to
act on the referendum.”
In a recent interview, Dr. Con-

stantine A. Yeracaris of the Sociology Department said that the
referendum is “extremely commendable,” but he has “some serious doubts about the meaning
of these questions.” He feels the

are

questions

“ambiguous

and

loaded.”

Unrealistic demand
When asked about the question
calling for student voting power,
he replied that it requires qualifi.

cation which will emerge from
close interaction between students
and faculty. He fftels there, should
be a “more meaningful exploration” of the issue.
Dr. Yeracaris believes student
voting is a “very desirable end,”
but also believed- a turnout of
50% is “unrealistic, ill thought of
and arbitrary.” He explained that
once the issues are explored, a
more meaningful plan of action

will evolve to determine the degree and amount of student par
ticipation.

The committee is circulating a
flyer to all sociology majors stating: “Action must be taken now.
Students must be enfranchised.’’

states that the “results of
the referendum speak loudly and
clearly . . . Students must be
given a meaningful vote in formulating the policies of the SoIt also

ciology Department.”

It continues: “Therefore, we
demand that the faculty immediately act upon the issue of student voting power, and not refer
this issue to a committee. Further
decisions in the department must
not be made until students have
voting power.”

The Spectrum

�between the lines
by Robert P. Sawicki
Spectrum Staff Reporter

At this time of the year I would like to
be endorsing the Democratic candidate,
Eugene McCarthy, for the Presidency, not
as the final goal of many months of work
but as a start in the right direction. Unfortunately, McCarthy will not be running
this year, so I must look at the other
major candidates. Quickly, Nixon and Wallace can only make the present condition
of American foreign and domestic policy
disintegrate into something below its present level. Humphrey, on the other hand,
will not make any real difference to the
present policies. So I really can not endorse any of these candidates.

U.S. hampers peace talks
Special to The Spectrum

Earlier this week Prime Minister Keith
J. Holyoake of New Zealand declared that
“North Vietnam has been given the most
generous proposals yet for a halt in American bombing,” but that “Hanoi does not
seem interested in accepting them.”
From the tone of this statement it
would seem that Prime Minister Holyoake was accusing North Vietnam of rejecting substantive peace offers by the
United States and South Vietnam.

However a close examination of the
facts will reveal some rather important
considerations. First, the offer made to
North Vietnam did not include an offer
to seat the National Liberation Front—the political arm of the Vietcong— as a
separate delegation at the Paris peace

negotiations.

Second, the South Vietnamese Government has demanded a principal role for
itself in the Paris talks but has said that
it will “never” agree to one for the Liberation Front.

What the United States did offer was to
drop the word “reciprocity” from its statement referring to North Vietnam’s activity in the south.
In other words the
United States would stop the bombing of
the north if Hanoi agreed to limit or com-

pletely halt its infiltration of

the south.

Then presumably both sides could, in
the words of Ambassador Averill Harri™an, “enter serious
negotiations for a
'ietnam peace.” Yet the South Vietnamese Government has adamantly refused to
allow the NLF to have a significant role in
the next phase of these
discussions.
It the NLF is denied a
role in the nego&gt;ations, it can not possibly expect to have
a role in
the actual political structure of
o u t h Vietnam when a settlement is
leached.

And if the NLF is denied a future por°le in the Government of South
wnam then the seeds are certainly
oie for a future insurrection.

»on Government.

Frida Y, November
1, 1968

Yet just 10 months ago the late Sen.
Robert F. Kennedy in a speech given in
Chicago said: “You cannot expect people
to risk their lives and endure hardship
unless they have a stake in their own
society. They must have a clear sense
of identification with their own government.

“There’s an old sayin’ that the people
receive the rulers or the leaders that they
deserve, but I’m a dirty motherfucker if
we deserve Wallace, Humphrey and bullnose Nixon. That's bullshit. We don’t
have that cornin’.” This statement comes
from my first preference, Eldridge Cleaver. Then again, he’s too young to be
President by two years, so a vote for him
is a vote for nothing.
Dick Gregory has his roots in showbusiness, where he was a great comedian,
and what the hell, this election is all a
big joke anyway, so why not vote for him?
Well, if you vote for him, or for that
matter any minor party candidate, you
haven’t got a chance of getting your man
elected, and so your vote would be wasted.
You may just as well have voted for
Nixon or Mickey Mouse.
In Soul On Ice, Cleaver said: “It’s not
an overstatement to say that the destiny
of the entire human race depends on the
outcome of what is going on in America
today. This is a staggering reality to the
rest of the world. They must feel like
passengers in a supersonic jetliner who
are forced to watch helplessly while a
passel of drunks, hypes, freaks and madmen fight for the controls and the pilot
seat.”
I feel like the rest of the world. If the
President were the only person to be
elected, I would stay home and do nothing;
rather than go out to the polls and do
nothing, but there are some other people
who are up for election.

The Saigon Government, by insisting
that it be considered the principal power
in the south, is attempting by negotiation
what it could not do by force. The reason
it cannot rule is that it does not have
the support of its people.
The Saigon Government under Bao Dai
formed in 1948 by the French to
restore their own prewar powers in Indochina. This was done two years after
nationwide elections were held in all of
Vietnam in which Ho Chi Minh was elected
President of the entire country.
was

Because of this action and the military
force used by France, civil war broke
out. By 1954 France was defeated. At the
Geneva Conference, Vietnam was divided

north and south with the provision that
elections to re unify the country would be
held within two years.
However these elections were never
held. The United States felt that free elections were impossible with North Vietnam.
Yet the United States did not denounce

Javits is still hung up on a lot of symbols. Witness the fact that Javits favors
the federal statute making it a Crime to
destroy pretty colored rags (alias the American flag). O’Dwyer has long been a
friend of labor and was very bitter when
he was rebuffed by them—a rebuff he
certainly did not deserve. O’Dwyer favors
a volunteer army, which is the next best
thing to no army at all. The list is longer,
but it all adds up to Mr. O’Dwyer being
a big step away from stagnant federal
thinking.
•

•

Over the rest of the country—which
I'll watch with interest and probably a
couple of six-packs just in ease—the important and preferable Senatorial candidates will be: Gruening jn Alaska (where
he lost the nomination of the Democratic
party but The Nation reports there is a
powerful write-in campaign); Fulbright in
Arkansas (for his important work in the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee);
Cranston over Max Rafferty (in California,
where Rafferty was long the scourge of
the educational system as well as its head.
Cranston has been urging other congressmen to support putting farm workers’
unions under protection of the N.L.R.A.);
Ribicoff in Connecticut (after Chicago, he
should be more interesting than he ever
was); Church in Idaho; Morse in Oregon,
and McGovern in South Dakota (who was
also prefereble to HHH in the primary).
My pessimistic side says that this year
could well be disastrous; my optimistic
side says it could end slightly better, and
my intelligent side says there is a lot of
work to be done in the next four years if
we are to get what we really deserve.

Czechs: ‘Russians go home
Chanting “Russians go
PRAGUE
home,” about 3000 students massed in
Prague and marched up to Hradcany
Castle where the leaders of the Sovietoccupied nation were meeting.
—

“We have seen the Vietnamese people
close their eyes and shut their doors in
the face of this government. We have an
ally in name only. We support a government without supporters.”

I would like to see Mr. O'Dwyer elected
to the Senate of the United States for
much the same reason I would have liked
to have seen Eugene McCarthy elected to
Presidency. Sure, Javits has been a decent Senator. He has. in fact, been better
than most—but so was Hubert Humphrey.
O’Dwyer was and is a primary supporter
of Eugene McCarthy, in a time when this
is considered almost traitorous to much
of the Democratic party bigwigs.

On the way up to the hilltop castle, the
students also repeatedly shouted: “Long
live freedom.”
Communist party sources said it was
just such student action that the Czechoslovak leaders had tried to avoid, warning
it might trigger massive retaliation by
the Russian armies that invaded this nation Aug. 21.

Alexander Dubcek.
At the bottom of the

hill there had been

only about 500 students, but the column
swelled as it pushed up the hill. Students

snatched red, white and blue national banners that had been hung on streets poles
to mark the anniversary.
The Communist Czechoslovak leaders
had gathered in the castle and delivered
speeches on the anniversary and on federal laws. The laws divided the nation
into semi-autonomous Czech and Slovak
states giving the Slovaks the independence
they have sought for most of their
troubled history.
In the speeches, Dubcek pledged to continue the reform program that had triggered the Soviet anger and invasion and
also to preserve the nation’s alliance with
the Kremlin.

Radio-equipped Soviet Army staff cars
rumbled the side-streets along the students’ route. The staff ears and the troops
inside did not interfere.,
But Czechoslovak police in patrol cruisers and trucks raced to the side of the
marching students and with loudspeakers
repeatedly warned: “This demonstration
has not been reported and must be con- "•/
sidered to be unauthorized.”
But the students, perhaps charged with
the emotion of the 50th anniversary of
the Czechoslovak Republic, marched up
to the rococco castle that is the seat of W

The students had witnessed the dump- Ml

Of the total fee of $17.50 approximately $11.50 will go directly to the GSA. The remainder
will be used as Sub-board 1 fee
and Joint Activity fee. The optional fee will be in addition to
a mandatory State University of
New York college fee which is
porportionately based on the

semester.

The funds given to the GSA
are allocated and distributed to
its sponsored activities and programs. The GSA maintains a permanent office in Norton Hall and
has an administrative assistant
whose salary, along with all office
expenses, is derived from the activity fee.

The Graduate Student Association of the State University of
Buffalo will begin collecting a
voluntary activity fee next week.
Graduate students will be assessed $17.50 per semester.
The Executive Council
elected representatives of the GSA
reportedly fought for the establishment of a voluntary fee on
the basis that the GSA,'whose
funds are derived from the fees,
is a viable organization serving
the needs of the graduate students and representative of their
interests.

is kept confidential under all circumstances.
Q.: If someone coming from DieffrtdoVf'or anywhere else on campus wishes to use the Xerox machine in Lockwood Annex, he must
walk all around the Annex, passing barred doors, to reach the one and
only permitted entrance via the main Lockwood Building. Instead of
having the doors locked and barred by a sturdy booth, why can't
guards be stationed by the doors, permitting greater and more cons
venient access to the Annex?

A.: In checking this puzzler, I found that the administrative staff
of the library appreciated the problem and indicated that they would
like to make the Annex more accessible and convenient for all who
use the Annex, but again the basic stumbling block is finances. Their
budget cannot be stretched to permit hiring additional maintenance
personnel necessary to staff additional entrances. The entrances must
be guarded or barred to prevent pilfering.
Q.: Why, when you have a board contract, do you receive only an
allowance for lunch at the interim campus? This is not enough to
buy a balanced meal. Individual lunches there are $1.35.

85&lt;

A.: Mr. Ray Becker, director of Food Service, explained That the
Ridge Lea campus is operated on a “cash basis,” i.e., in the same manner as the Norton Hall cafeterias, and therefore cannot accommodate
students on board contracts in the same manner as the residence hall
cafeterias. Inasmuch as some students are unable to return to the
Main St, campus for their luncheon meal, a cash allowance, based
upon a generously figured pro-rated cost allotment, was granted students who elected to eat their lunch at the Ridge Lea campus. This
arrangement and rate was developed between the Food Committee of
the Inter-Residence Council and food service personnel. Originally,
board contract students were given box lunches to take to the Ridge
Lea camnus, but they indicated their preference for a hot meal. However, if a student would rather have a box lunch, he can arrange this
by contacting the Food Service Office, If board contract students are
unhappy with the present arrangement, or choice, they should so inform their Food Committee who can then renegotiate the whole plan
with the Food Service Office.
Q.: Why can't we hold a Beer Blast in the Fillmore Room of
Norton Hall?
A,: There have been Beer Blasts in the Fillmore Room, and if
your organization is a duly recognized one by the Student Association,

merely follow the procedure set forth by the Norton Hall House Council, details of which are available in the Reservations Office. The procedure is to apply for a permit, which you can pick up at the Reservations Office and at the same time make a reservation for the room.
The form, completed in duplicate, must be returned to the Reservations Office who subsequently present the application to the House
Council for review and approval. There are, however, certain conditions which must be met, i.e., a check made to assure that no one
under 18 will be served, and that no beer or liquor would be sold.
Beer and liquor can be brought in by the sponsoring organization, with
set-ups provided by the Food Service. When the University’s liquor
license is approved, House Council regulations will be adjusted to
accommodate the sale of beer and liquor.

Q.: What is the procedure for notifying a student who requests
transcript if he has a balance due on his account and how long does

this take?

A.: All currently registered students who make “in person”
transcript requests are asked to secure the Bursar’s stamp (signifying
a clear account) on the request form. For those who make requests
by mail (currently registered or former students) the Admissions and
Records office checks a list of delinquent accounts which is provided
by the Bursar. If a student’s name appears on this list, the Bursar is
requested to check the account to be sure that it has not been cleared
since the list was prepared. The Bursar then indicates the amount still
due and a form letter is sent to the student. This procedure takes
about one week from the date of the orignial transcript request. However, the Bursar has previously notified students who have delinquent
accounts and the student should be aware of this prior to notification.

The Student Association is sponsoring a mock election to allow students to express
their preferences in next week's election. Voting will take place from 9 a.m. until

Candidates on the presidential ballot will be Democrat Hubert Humphrey, Republican Richard Nixon and American-Independent George Wallace. There will also
be room for write-in candidates.
The senatorial ballot will include Conservative candidate James Buckley, RepublicanLiberal Jacob Javits and Democrat Paul O'Dwyer.
George Heymann, chairman of the Student Association elections committee, explained the reasons for holding the election; "Due to the diversity of interests among
students in the upcoming election, we thought it would be of interest to all if the Student Association established a mock election to give students the opportunity to express

The students should have the
opportunity to set their own social standards.
In previous years, the InterResidence Council was given the
responsibility to set guide lines
for Open House Hours. During
these years such procedures as
curfews and sign out were in effect. As a consequence of these
old policies any one Open House
would effect the entire Residence
Community. However, it is now
feasible to delegate this responsibility to a smaller unit of students. Since the House Council
is the governing body of each

the House Council be delegated
the responsibility to set up specific visitation hours.
Therefore, the House Council

set any visitation hours that it
believes the residents of that respective hall wish. It is recommended that an extensive polling,
of the individual residence hall

�Humphrey Nixon student
supporters debate today
,

Student supporters of Humphrey and Nixon will debate from
3 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. today in
room
Norton Hall. Two students will represent each side.
Charles Ginrich and John Estoff will take the Republican side;
Stanley Klein and a debater yet
to be announced will represent
the Democrats,
Ted Beringer, Public Affairs
coordinator, will be the debate
moderator.
The debaters will begin with
eight minute introductory remarks and will then proceed to
cover five specified areas. These
areas will be law and order, foreign -policy, Vietnam, education,
civil rights—e q u a 1 opportunity,
urban problems and economic
problems.
The coordinator of the debate,
Stephen Sickler of the Republican Club, indicated that other
relevant issues not covered by
these topics will be included in
the question and answer session
-

that will follow the individual
presentations and rebuttals.
Representatives of the Democratic and Republican Clubs indicated that covering the issues
one by one is an attempt to keep
the-debate on a “constructive level and make it more informative
for those in attendance.”
Today’s debate is the result of
events that came about during
Friday’s debate when the Republican Club refused to participate.
Mr. Sickler read a statement at
that time expressing his organization’s dissatisfaction with the
format of the debate.

Two-sided debate
He indicated the Republican
Club’s preference for a debate
that would include only two sides
to replace the multiple-sided debate held Friday. He challenged
each of the parties there to an
individual debate, claiming that
“the most important question is

not socialism versus capitalism,
as three panelists here claim, but
who will be our next President.”
Stan Klein, representing the

State University of Buffalo Students For Humphrey-Muskie, accepted the request to debate. He
revealed what he thinks is one of
the most important points on
Humphrey’s side—his opposition
to President Johnson’s Vietnam
policy.
“In all cabinet meetings, Humphrey has called for an end to
the bombing and these views were
never made known because it’s
Johnson’s decision, not Humphrey’s, on what we will do in
Vietnam until January. This is
further brought out by the fact
that the two biggest doves in the
Johnson administration, Arthur
Goldberg and George Ball, have
resigned to campaign for Humphrey.”
According to Mr. Sickler, none
of the other parties have as yet
accepted the deabte request.

HELP forms new committees
HELP, the student group
formed this semester to attempt
to alleviate the problem of inadequate student housing, has
formed two committees to coordinate solutions to student
housing problems.

One committee will handle immediate student housing difficulties which will arise this spring
and fall. This committee will
sponsor an ad and television

campaign to improve the student
image in the community. The aim
is to have more contact and improved relations with area land-

lords.
The second committee will concern itself with long range housing possibilities. It is attempting
to construct a tract of studentowned, student-maintained buildings. The proposed structures will
be owned by the students and will
have no maintenance charges.

Offers from various realtors
and developers have been received by the group. Their hope is
to construct low-cost housing
close to the new campus. Under
consideration is the controversial
FSA property in Amherst.
A meeting to recruit students
for canvassing, phoning and coordinating operations will be held
at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday in room 205,

�County executive
Edward Rath dies
Erie County’s first County Executive, Edward A. Rath, succumbed Monday to a heart attack
at the age of 61. Complaining of
chest pains after a fall last week,
he was rushed late Sunday night
to Meyer Memorial Hospital
where he died at 12:45 a.m.
Services were held yesterday at
the Trinity United Church of
Christ and internment was at Acacia Park, North Tonawanda,
Dale H. Bossert, county public
works commissioner, succeeds Mr,
Rath until the County Legislature
appoints a replacement in the
next general election.
Indications are that the choice
will be either County Clerk Robert Grimm or Sheriff B. John Tuluska.- The winner of next year’s
election will serve out Mr. Rath’s
term which ends on Jan. 1, 1972.
After his election as University
District Councilman in 1943, Mr.
Rath held various posts in Republican city administrations. He was
elected county clerk in 1951
when he defeated former Mayor
Steven Pankow by less than 300
votes.

The County Board of Supervisors in 1959 appointed Mr. Rath
to the post of county comptroller.

County Executive

Mr. Rath won his first term as
county executive in 1960 under

the new county charter ratified

in
1959 which provided for a
county executive. Although Democrat John F. Kennedy earned
Erie County by 65.000 votes, Mrin

Rath

managed to forge a victory

that year by a 34,000 vote mar-

gin.

His strongest opposition came
in 1963 when Mr Rath defeated
James L. Kane, local president of
the AFL-CIO Council by 13,000
votes. It was in that year that the
Democrats captured a major
county post, the District Attorney's office, for the first time
since the 1930's.

Declining offers of a state job

decided to run for a third term
in 1967.
That year, Erie County's top
Democratic vote-getter. District
Attorney Michael Dillon opposed
him in what appeared to be a
tight contest. After an expensive
and fierce campaign, Mr. Rath
pulled a major surprise by winning with a comfortable 31.000

vote margin.

Freedom elections offer choice
Spectrum Staff Reporter

The Buffalo chapter of the Peace and Freedom Party,
which is dedicated to building a grass-roots radical movement
in the United States, will sponsor “freedom elections” on
Election Day, Nov. 5.
Special voting booths

will be

set up at nine different places

around the city of Buffalo: At
the Unitarian-Universalist Church,
Elmwood and Ferry; the State
University of Buffalo, Norton
Hall: Lafayette Square; Buffalo
State College’s Student Union;
the Student Union of Canisius
College; the Jefferson Education
Center, Jefferson Ave. at Northampton St.; the Solomon Sculpture Garden, 187 Allen St.; and
the Buffalo Draft Resistance Union, 937 W. Ferry St.
AH of the booths will be open
from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., except
for the one at the Jefferyson Education Center, which will be open
from 12 noon to 6 p.m, A temporary booth will also be set up
outside Bethlehem Steel whenever the shifts change.
The Peace and Freedom Party
was founded on the belief that
there are no real alternatives for
a disenfranchised voter since political machinery is manipulated
by the Democratic and Republican
parties. Given
this, the P.F.P. has
worked to provide “alternate
structures” in electoral politics
—

a real

alternative.
Freedom elections'
In the same spirit, the Buffalo
Mpter

of the P.F.P, decided on

e &gt;dea of the “freedom
elecwns, ’ which they stress are the
'ily truly free elections since all
"

anclidates will be

on the ballot

and since everyone, regardless of
age, criminal record or nationality, will be able to vote.
Obviously the P.F.P. admits
that the results of the “freedom
elections” will have no effect on
the real outcome of the balloting;
at the same time, however, the
party claims that voting in official elections will have no real
effect either, since the outcome
is pre-determind by the machinations of establishment political
machinery.
In adopting this free election
policy, the Peace and Freedom
Party denies the politics of confrontation and disruption which
seems to characterize, at least according to the established media,

the strategy of the New Left. In

terms of the Peace and Freedom
Party, the boycott of official

election booths, which in effect
would deny people the right to
vote, is anathema. And always has
been.

The freedom election ballot
will include the names of all the
candidates recognized by the New
York State ballot, with two
special and significant additions;
the names of Eldridge Cleaver,
Peace and Freedom presidential
candidate, and Eugene McCarthy,
who would have headed a fourth
ticket.

Technicalities

Both of these names were
stricken from the official ballot

because of technicalities: For instance, Cleaver is under 35 years
of age, the minimum constitutional age for a President (but
not, it is forgotten, to run for
President). Only in Iowa, Arizona,
and Minnesota will the black candidate’s name appear on the ballot, In some other states the
P.F.P. is represented in name
only, without mention of any
official candidates.
The

pleasant, unprecedented

of the “freedom elections” is offered as the answer
to New York State’s presidential
ballot, incomplete because of its
stringent ballot requirements. As
it stands, independent candidates
for the presidency in New York
must petition for signatures each
and every time they run for office. Once they are on the ballot
their status is temporary and contingent upon how many votes
they receive.
anarchy

“Freedom elections” are an
event. A rented soundlruck will
carry the news to different parts
of the city on Nov. 5 and thousands of leaflets will be distributed.

An informal guerrilla theater
will present a skit on
electoral politics at Lafayette
Square Saturday and Tuesday.
Afterwards, dashing up and down
Main St., painted and costumed,
the players will tell people what
the “freedom elections” are all

Coiincert review

Donovan
by

Jennifer

Ibid of a conflict with a New
York cab driver critical of him
and “my old friend Sean,”

Astor

Spectrum Stall Reporter

A soft blue haze settled over
the elevated stage, and the corporeal spirt of the dying flower
generation assumed his place.

Clad in garments of a gentle
shade of blue, Donovan Leitch
led his listeners through a dreamland of lullabyes, fairytales and
visions. In the air was a sense of
more than 3000 people trying to
regenerate the dream of the ideal
life—a dream which the past
year has destroyed.

But Donovan the Magician still
retains the aura of this lost ideal,
sharing it with his audience even
if just for two short hours.
He began his Thursday evening

concert at the University of Toronto with the mellow tones of a

child’s song about little animals
and flowers. Following with three
more childhood vision-memories,
Donovan left the stage for a short,
seemingly interminably long, intermission.
As the participants in this
dream voyage mulled around the
Varsity Arena, they shared balloons and flowers with one another, just as they had when the
Love Movement was in its infant

After a few more songs on his
guitar, Donovan gave up his
stringed instrument in favor of a
harmonium. The organ-like instrument with its haunting tonal
quality provided leeway for improvization. Gently stroking its
keys, he drew his followers into
the world of the Oriental ‘OM.’
Humming and whispering ‘love’
and ‘joy,’ he seemed to plead for
tranquility and peace.
When he closed the harmonium
and once again took up his guitar,
he proceeded to sing a number
of cuts from his double album,
“From a Flower to a Garden.”
Quite appropriately, as he whispered one of these tunes about
children, a baby in the audience
began to cry.

Just before Donovan opened a
medley qf his most popular single
releases, a young girl stepped on
stage and offered the leader a
flower. He laughed gently.
As he clowned his way through
well known pieces like “Mellow
Yellow” and “Sunshine Superman,” the audience responded by
singing with him and clapping
in lime to the rhythm. Donovan
himself compensated for the lack
of drums and other accompaniment with little ‘bomp-bomps’
and ‘ch-chs.’

stages.

When the gentle Scotsman finally returned to his pedestal, a
vibrant shush descended to welcome the master back. Beginning
with his Arthurian dream, “Guinevere,” Donovan seemed to respond more freely to his audience.
He interspersed his performance
with a few stories from his earlier days as a simple singer of
folk tunes.
One of these acted as a lead-in

to an up-tempo put-down of

Donovan brought his evening of
magical peace to an end by in-

viting the audience to join him
in creating “Happiness,” asking
the men to play the part of
French horns, while the girls
chanted “happiness runs.” He improvised, toying with the lyrics
by adding “happiness grows.” •

Sterling Tucker, executive director of the Washington Urban

Summons media and leaders

by Darrell M. Dodge

"Some think," wrote the music critic of tho Now York Timos in evaluating tho
symphonic offerings of a recent season, "that the Cleveland (Orchestra) is the greatest
in America, and (George) Szell, the greatest conductor." Buffalo area listeners now
have the opportunity of hearing a weekly concert by this outstanding orchestra every
Sunday at 8 p.m. over WBFO, 88.7 me. FM.
Each program consists of one complete concert, including an intermission interview, usually with the solo performer of the concert. The programs are produced and
hosted by Robert Conrad of WCLB, Cleveland, and promise to be of the highest technical quality.
The broadcasts are made possible by grants from the Music Committee of University Union Activities Board and Sub-Board I of the State University of New York
at Buffalo.
The program for this Sunday consists of the works performed at the Blossom
Music Festival concert with George Szell. The works include Mozart's Symphony No. 41
in C, K. 551 "Jupiter," and Strauss's "The Last Four Songs." Elisabeth Schwarzkopf,
soprano, will be the featured soloist.
Other programs planned for the month include the Severance Hall concert which
features works by Debussy, Weber, Tchaikovsky, Mozart and Wagner. These will be
broadcast on Nov. 17 and 24.

League, sums up the only weakness of his new book: “The most
a book can do is attempt to increase the nation’s understanding of the depth of the problem.”

His book can and does contain
an impassioned summary of the
ghetto’s problems, statistics chosen specifically to punch holes in
racist cliches, an indictment of
paternalistic white liberal attitudes and a plan for the ghetto's
elimination. But there it must
end, leaving racist fear and economic insecurity to fester in the
gut of white America.
Mr. Tucker is no Rap Brown,
but perhaps that is a strength.

f His indictments
of the establish-

ment are uncompromising, yet

unobscured by militant slogans
and the derogatory metaphors
which, however true, send many
whites into a blind rage.

our lives to the comfortable stock

Saturday evening the State University of Buffalo Bulls
invade Philadelphia’s Temple Stadium to tangle with the
Owls of Temple.

The Bulls should be back at
full strength with Mike Luzny and
Chris Wolf after their 10-9

The teams will be squaring
off for the eighth time in a
series that started in 1957.
The Bulls have dominated the
series, capturing all seven
previous meetings. Buffalo

after half-time and reversed their
self-defeating first-half play, coming through with a great secondhalf effort:

The Owls, coached by Georg
Markis, have 36 returning lettermen. They use a pro-type offense
and have a strong offensive line
and backfield.

Tight end will be Mike Paone,
6 feet 3 inches, 195 pounds. Paone
started the last six games this
past season and kept improving as
he picked up much needed experience, catching seven passes
for 55 yards and one TD.

At one of the offensive tackle
spots is Steve Caporiccio, 6 feet
1 inch, 257 pounds. This past
year, Caporiccio was switched to
offensive tackle, won a starting
assignment and had a brilliant
sophomore

season. Only a junior,

he has the size and mobility needed in offensive linemen. At the
other tackle position is Jim Boscoe, 6 feet 1 inch, 227-pound senior in his third season.

At the guard positions are junior Jim Fatigate, 5 feet 11 inches,
217 pounds and senior Spencer
White, 6 feet, 221 pounds. Both
saw considerable action this past
season.

Waller again
Quarterbacking the Owls will
be John Waller, 5 feet 8 inches,
170 pounds. Waller was tremendous as a sophomore, but played
in only five games as a junior
after having fractured a finger
on his throwing hand. He completed 41 of 84 passing tries for
542 yards and seven TDs before
his injury.

scorer in Owl history
with 132 points on 22 touchdowns,
llin each of his two varsity seaThis past year, Callahan caught
32 aerials good for 617 yards and
17.6 yards per catch. So far this
season, Callahan has 26 receptions
for 319 yards and six TDs.

At the right half or flanker
position is junior Jim Watson, 5
feet 11 inches, 165 pounds. This
season, Watson has 19 receptions

for 182 yards and three TDs. The
left halfback position has many
possible candidates. Mike Busch,
6 feet, 196 pbunds, had a sensational sophomore season when he
led the Middle Atlantic Conference University Division in rushing and made the first all-star
team.

Best ground-gainer
Busch was the Owl’s best

ground gainer, grinding out 622
yards in 181 carries for a 3.4 average and was Temple’s second
highest scorer with 50 points.
Stan Gemski, so far this year, has
157 yards on 47 carries for a 3.3
average.

Bob Eastwick was Temple’s
third best ground gainer during
the 1967 season. He aVeraged 3.2
yards on 37 carries and also
caught five passes for 59 yards.
Fullback position is filled by
Bill Hollar, 6 feet 1 inch, 225
pounds. This past year, he finished as fourth best ground gainer, averaging 3.1 yards per carry
and catching four passes for 52
yards. In six games, Hollar has
carried 83 times for 363 yards,
averaging 4.4 yards per carry.
Defensively, the line is strong
while the backfield is an Owl

weakness. Defensive tackle Marteen Jones, 6 feet 3 inches, 215
pounds, came along strong the
second half of the 1967 season
and is considered one of Temple’s
better defensive linemen. The
other tackle spot is capably filled
by Lawrence Edwards, 6 foot 3
inch, 217 pound senior.

John Waller
Temple QB will lead team
Waller already owns the Temple career record for touchdown
Passes, totaling 24 with six comln8 against Bucknell in 1966 for
another mark. In addition, he
owns the record for most passing

in one season. Thus far this season, Waller

Middle guard
The middle guard position is
filled by junior Bob Nemergut, 6
feet, 223 pounds. Nemergut played at 260 pounds in his sophomore year, but shed the extra
weight last summer which paid
off by making him an improved
performer. Linebacker Dave Abler is quick, has good moves and
played a key role in Temple’s vietory over Hofstra.

In the defensive secondary,
Chris Fletcher, George Conti and
Dave Puchalski play important
roles. Puchalski was a fine performer as a sophomore and is
considered one of Temple’s -most
promising backs, Both Conti and

manifest in the persons of coach
Ed Muto and his assistant, Bill
Monkarsh.
While the quantity and quality
of talent on the Buffalo squad
has increased this year, the schedule-maker has been tough on the
Mutomen. The Baby Bulls play
what is perhaps the toughest
schedule of all local frosh teams.
Coach Muto labeled the level of
this year’s schedule “one of the
finest ever played.”
A glance at the schedule bears
this out. Such perennially strong
squads as Niagara University, Buffalo State, St. Bonaventure, Syracuse, Canisius, Niagara Community College and Colgate appear
on the list of Baby Bull opponents
this season.

Leading contenders
Height, strength and toughness
are primary attributes of the
front-liners vying for starting
positions on the Baby Bulls. The
leading candidates thus far are:

Eric Rasmussen, 6 feet, 5 inches,
from Syracuse; Ed Hubert, 6 feet,
3 inches, from Massena, N. Y.;
Bill Hartford, 6 feet, 6 inches, also
from Massena; Neil Langelier, 6
feet, 4 inches, from Moira, N, Y.;
Ira Weiner, 6 feet, 7 inches, from
Staten Island, N. Y.; Tony Harris,
6 feet, 2 inches, from Burgard
High School in Buffalo, and Bob
Cabbagestalk, 6 feet, 3 inches,
from New York City.

Guard position
The guard spot appears to be
well-manned. More guards are
contending for starting slots on
the team than in previous years.
Although numbers do not always
mean strength, the level of talent
is high at this position. This
makes for fierce competition with
resulting improvement in everyone’s play.
Some of the leading contenders

defensive

suit. Line-backer Dave Richner
made the All-East team for his
performance. The defense played
well, containing both the strong
running and passing attacks of
the Crusaders.

Excellent blocking
The offense also shone with excellent blocking. Denny Mason returned in the second half and
made key runs on quarterback
keepers. Mason carried 14 times
for 39 yards. Dick Ashley and
Paul Lang made key receptions
to keep the Bulls’ offense alive.
As usual, Ken Rutkowski kept his
legend entrenched by gaining 76
yards in 22 carries.
Temple has a strong passing
and running attack that must be
contained. If the Bulls can stop
the Owls as they stopped Holy

to Philadelphia while chalking up
another victory.

Although the freshmen appear
to be well-stocked with talent,

out that the true test of his
team’s ability can only come
through competition. Their development as a team will take hard
work, time and patience.

Green Bay shall rise again. The Packers,, on Monday
night, handily defeated the previously unbeaten Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys had taken an early ten-to-nothing lead
when the Packers started playing.
From the second quarter
on it was all Green Bay. This
puts them in a tie for the
Central Division lead with
Detroit. At the e n d of the
season, it will be Green Bay
again at the Super Bowl.
The AFL race, on Sunday,
seemed to open up much wider
than it has been all year. The
Jets’ overpowering victory over
the Boston Patriots increased
their lead in the East to two full
games.

The Chiefs powered their vvay
to their second straight crucial
decision by beating the Chargers
in Kansas City. They lead the
West by a game and a half.
The Jets have it easy this week
as they play Buffalo at home
while the Chiefs move to Oakland
in a game that will probably decide the fate of the Western division.

une upset is enough for the Bills.

riots need a win to remain in contention for the Eastern Division
crown. Mike Taliaferro has done
well in his first season as number
one quarterback and should lead

the Bostonians to an easy victory
over the hapless Broncos. Denver
has been playing over their heads
of late, but they don't stand a
chance against a strong Boston

defense.

Houston 27, Cincinnati 10—Don
Trull has done a fine job in place
of ailing Pete Beathard as the
Houston quarterback. Last week
they ran over the mediocre Buffalo Bills. This week their job
is just as easy as they face the
Cincinnati Bengals at Cincinnati.
This game is a necessity if the
Oilers want to remain in striking
distance of the first place Jets.
Kansas City 27, Oakland 20—
The Chiefs are the best team in
the league and should win their
third crucial game in succession
in Oakland this week. Led by the

for the

Thanksgiving recess.

Thomas Moore will
direct ‘Lovely War’
Charles Clinton’s play, "Oh
What a Lovely War,” will be the
major production of the Program
in Theater at the State University
of Buffalo. The production is
scheduled for Nov. 7 through Nov.
10. It will be directed by H.
Thomas Moore, a visiting director.
Mr. Moore is concerned with
the potentialities of inter-media
in the theater. His choice of this
play reflects his interest in the
effects of intermedia and his
sympathy with the essential seriousness of the play’s satiric attack on war.
Immediately after his engagement at Buffalo, Mr. Moore is
scheduled to direct at Brandeis.

The cast is composed of students, as arc the technical and
costume crews. They are under
the supervision of Mike English
who designed the set and Esther
Kling who created the costumes.
An instructor in dance at the University, Linda Swiniuch, is the
choreographer, and Robert Lieberman, a theater major, is the
manager of the intricate technicalities of visual montage.
Among the student performers
are Margot Fein, Carole Forman,
Raymond Bowman, Maury Chaykin, Frank Elmer and Jeff Jaeggi.
The play will begin at 8:30 p.m.
in Baird Hall. Tickets arc available at the Norton Ticket Office.

UUAB contest
University Union Activities Board is offering
award for a student who designs an original insignia. The design should be representative
or abstract, but simple and capable of reproduction to any size.

Urges support of Humphrey-Muskie ticket
To the editor
This Tuesday we will select a president who
will be the most powerful man in the Western
world for the next four years. He will bring with
him a vice-president and a cabinet. He will appoint
Supreme Court Justices. His influence at home
and abroad will be enormous.
Some have planned to stay at home or cast a
protest vote. It is the purpose of this appeal to
bring to your attention the consequences of such

an act.
If you have children, programs for their aid,
protection and education will be throttled.
•

If you are elderly or have responsibilities toward elderly parents, meager resources will be lost
as programs for their medical care are blocked or
rolled back.
The great gains made by labor over the past
two decades will be in jeopardy.
Social and economic programs for the poor
and the black will be stopped, and most likely
reversed.

Of crucial significance is the danger to civil

Humphrey and Muskie are actively working
against nuclear annhilation and -for a non-proliferation treaty, Nixon has evaded these crucial issues.
The Peace Corps, Medicare and Food for Peace
programs were first proposed by Humphrey, as was
vital legislation in the
of education, housing,
and civil rights.
Many of us who are or were supporters of McCarthy, Kennedy, Rockefeller or McGovern recognize that the choice is clear.

Protests theft of Debate Society souvenir
To the editor
We, the undersigned officers of the Debate So
ciety, wish to take this opportunity to protest the illegal, quasi-political act which occurred in the debate room Oct. 28.
A souvenir of a debate tournament in New Orleans which the Society attended was stolen. The object in question was a Confederate flag.
Earlier in the day, some students entered the
room and protested our exhibition of the flag on
our wall. When informed that it was a souvenir,
and in no way implied any political expression, they
suggested that we post a label on the flag saying
it was in fact a souvenir. They left, adding that they
would “get it.” This they seem to have done.

Whereas the return of the flag would seem to
be impossible, the Society wishes to inform those involved of our intention to purchase another Confederate flag and display it in our room as a protest of the illegal act which occurred.
One of the declared objectives of the Society is
to act as a medium of exchange between people Of
differing views with the emphasis on reason and
articulation. We find that the act in question did
not in any way reflect upon the reason and intellectual commitment that we hold necessary and
dear.

The Research and Aclion Committee of SDS has

of the recruiters who will be here during the

continued involvement in the war upon the Vietnamese people, with the resulting death to nearly
33,000 young Americans.

The Spectrum has been a consistent voice of
opposition to U.S. aggression in Vietnam, with its
resulting horror for those people and the young
Americans killed and maimed in the struggle.
We now ask that you act upon your principled
stand on the war by refusing to allow the warmakers listed above (and those who will come next
term) to advertise their wares in your pages. Given
your editorial policies, it seems only fitting that
you advise the warmakers to peddle their ads of
death somewhere else. We hope that you will join
in this effort as one small way of clearly expressing
your revulsion against the efforts of these corporations to profit off the misery of mankind.

Comments on Spectrum article
To the editor

Several months ago, feverish primary campaigns in both
parties billed this as America’s most important election year.
The issues of peace in Vietnam, urban decay, campus unrest, etc. were becoming increasingly explosive. There were
resignations, upsets and assassinations, but despite it all,
there seemed to many to be new life in the dying two-party
political structure.
That was all several months ago. Before Miami. Before
Chicago. The “new life” was only a futile last gasp. Tuesday
there will be no choice offered the voters in their quest for
a President. The most important ones have already been
made, and not by “the people,” but by the controllers of
political pocketbooks and the manipulators of the mass
media.

This sort of looking-backward approach would not be
worth discussing, except that it is what Mr. Nixon seems to
be proposing. He has been very effective in his campaign in
pointing out the ills of the incumbent administration. His
extreme confidence can in part be explained by this sort of
“I-told-you-so” attitude of his. However, all he has to offer
is something different—certainly not anything new. fie is
rehashing the same tired old Republican economy, big-business, strong foreign policy formulas. His only new addition
to this old-line rhetoric of the 50’s is a new and angry constituency, which is being sweet-talked by his running-mate
Mr. Agnew.

His “liberal” credentials include the first civil rights
plank, in 1948, which split the party, and his unifying “compromise” in 1954 in sponsoring a bill to detain all subversives in camps in time of national emergency. His red-baiting
efforts go back further than Tricky Dick's tutelage under
Joe McCarthy, extending back into his famous forties’ “red
purge” of the Minnesota Farmer-Labor Party. It is in Vietnam where white-man’s-burden racist attitudes and anti-communism crusades have found their horrible mutual expression. Mr. Humphrey apparently fails to see the similarities
between the struggle for liberation and self-determination in
Vietnam and the struggle of blacks here in the U.S. There
has been no more vociferous spokesman for the Administration policies in Southeast Asia than the Vice President.

Humphrey was pushed into the nomination by the Pigs
of the Democratic Party, by Mayor Daley and the aspiring
bosses, by the war—industry/labor bigshots and, lest we
not forget, by Our Father LBJ. The election of HHH would
give dangerous endorsement to the policies of the past four
years; only his defeat might make possible a rejuvenation of

and if so, why?

by Robert Mattern
The issue of "law and order"
become particularly irrelevant
in this year of presidential elections:
each candidate has embraced it,
yet there has, as yet, been no explanation by any candidate of what
they are referring to. Order has
jecome abstract and meaningless.
"We want law" is even a poor
placard slogan in a country with
more laws than it knows what to
do with already.
Not being quite certain what
these men are so fervently endorsing, we do have, at least, a vague
and loud indication of the hard
road to be travelled in this pursuit.
Wallace will arm everyone and drive
his presidential automobile over people to achieve law and order; Nixon
will, if he remembers, put soldiers
on every street; Humphrey will shake
his finger over a podium in rhythm
with his swollen jugular veins. Law
and order has become a paraphrase
for preservation of status quo.
"Law and Order" is good. Demonstrators, nigras, and assorted rahblerousers are bad. "Law and Order is something the forgotten
American takes each morning like
vitamins. Officially the problem of
defining law and order falls to the
courts. That is, prosecutors. One of

The defendants in the Sprocka political and moral injustice,
denied the right to present a case
on their own behalf. Their argument
rested on the belief that the war in
Vietnam was an intolerable instance
of Political and moral injustice.
Therefore the resistance they urged
was a legitimate reaction to an
illegitimate action. Their sincerity
was unquestionable.
Legitimate resistance

And yet Justice Ford, who preover the case, refused to
allow evidence to’substantiate this
stand to be submitted; instead, the
only course the court would follow
was that there existed a anti-conspiracy law and that it was broken,
The trial proceeded on this level
with no regard to the legitimacy

defendants or the legality of the
acts to which these men had reacted, They were convicted of breaking

attempting to decide.

The process of the power struggle must initially attack those positions where enforced law and imposed order are blatantly selective or
morally repulsive. The great number
of existing actions in the name of
law and order which serve only to
stop what the power structure does

must cease. Some legal experts are
finally coming to the conclusion that
drug
abuse, gambling, ordinary
drunkenness, peaceful demonstrations and the like are not criminal
activities, nor do these acts promise
to destroy the state if they are not
repressed.

There has arisen a necessity for
some coherent and workable definition of law and order in this society. If the legal framework continues to function to keep power
centralized in the hands of a small
elite group of militarist bureaucrats,
the acts of'civil disobedience and
resistance will continue and the
country will be caught in a progression closing on itself. Any immediate transferral of the existing power structure will include a transferral, rather than elimination, of existing injustices.

�ciety must necessarily be continually changed, repealed and resisted.

The Selective Service Act, having
been found absurdly illegitimate and
morally repulsive, must be resisted
at all levels. And when the judicial
system functions to limit dissent
and castrate opposition to the estab-

lishment's political policies, it too
must

be resisted. The continual

pressure that can be brought to bear
on the legal system in its entirety
has been only mildly tapped; until
now the system has proven itself
virtually inflexible and more than
willing to respond with increased
repression.

Law and

order, the courts, po-

lice and prosecutors must become
humanitarian; there must be asserted a qualitative difference in an
act of conspiracy to end a war and
an act of conspiracy to preserve
racist education. The legal system
must function beyond the influence
of current political trends and provide, in practice and not just in
campaign leaflets, a set of standards applicable to everyone, regardless of his position in the society.

Dissent

Dissent will contirtue” unfil the
legal system at least appears to be
moving in the direction of equal
rights under the law for all members
of the society, until police forces
become responsible and until local
and federal prosecutors treat all
illegal acts equally and without prej
udice. This is the responsibility of
dissent; loyal opposition will cease
to be loyal if its voice is ignored
or quelled for long! This dissent
does not threaten laws necessary
to the functioning of the society
preservation of order in many instances must be maintained (the
FDA, ICC, etc.) but it can no longer
be accepted as a means to coerce
dissent and force apathy.

Running amok

Abe Fortas, Supreme Court Justice, has again asserted that this is
a "country of laws" in the second
edition of his essay on civil diso-

Pl|C 6

bedience. What Justice Fortas misunderstands is that the legal framework he participates in is largely
unjust. The black population has
known this for a long time; white

activists are becoming quickly
aware. A man who has refused induction through an act of conscience
(with or without attempting dissent
through the hidden existing legal
channels, it being very hard to reason with a callous, bastard bodypolitic) can hardly be expected to
seek justice from the system which
has refused the right not to kill.

An interesting irony, but not pleas
ant.

We are left with the freedom
choose among different brands
of ketsup and little else. This being
the case of freedom in this country,
perhaps it is a fine time to run
amok. Period. Which is agreeable
with honest Abe Fortas and his
legal structure, if only we'll stand
to

trial later.

�the Black Panthers:
frightening or enlightening?

by Corydon Ireland
Until a few days ago I had no idea what it was
like to be frisked. When it happened, I had not robbed
a gas station or snatched a purse nor was it a
policeman who did the frisking. It happened when
I tried to get into a prqss conference being held
by the Black Panther Party and their affiliates,
the Peace and Freedom Party.
When I got to the door (God, I felt little and
white) I was stopped by a leather-jacketed black
with a black beret, black pants and a powder blue
shirt. He was as tall and as wide as the door and
he proceeded to frisk me up and down after checking my credentials. More of the same when I
tried to get into a rally downstairs which featured
some Black Panther militants and a few Peace and
Freedom speakers.
If I had not thought about that incident any
further, if I had only felt about it from then on, I
would have remained upset, disenchanted and in
dignant
as many white liberals still are
about
the Black Panther organization. I would have gone
on to write a perfectly inept and febrile article
about political thugism and reverse racism. I might
even have been tempted to use the tag "neofacism” in recalling my experience with the Black
Panther Party. But all of that is too easy. If
had gone on to say all of those things, without
feally looking into the question of the Black
Panther phenomenon, then I would have been
guilty of the same primitive emotionalism, shortsightedness, and hunger for an easy answer that
George Wallace and his followers are guilty of.
And all this without ever exceeding the bounds
°f reasonable liberalism.
—

I

What about liberals?
Semantically, reason will always remain a con
slant; reasonableness, however, will always have
'is variance
semantically, depending ori'thfe cir

cumstances. Within the frame of activism today,
for instance, there is very little that is reasonable
about liberalism as such. Mike James of the
Chicago S.D.S. has said that "liberals” want
to help people, but ", . . they don't understand
the people that they want to help. The radical
understands.” The radical is committed to revolutionary change, the liberal only to a modification
of old values. It is for the radical to take the helm
when the old values no longer apply and when a
society's social institutions are no longer
responsive to meaningful change, this dictum
applies to both white and black radicals within
the voluminous bounds of the New Left. I
will consider both, but, after all, the Black
Panthers are the case in point.
The New Left may well be a product of the
mass media, which, in its penchant for nationaliz
ing political phenomena, haunts us with ghosts
of every conceivable kind. But the Black Panthers
are no such ghost. They were not created out of
any political analyst's need to give a name to
what is happening, but it was created out of the
dirt, poverty, and oppression of the black
ghettos; out of the bitter contemplation of prison
life; out of the deathless intelligence of Malcolm
X; out of the black liberation efforts of the Black
Muslim movement; out of the spirit of Robert F,
Williams, who is today a black exile in Red
China; and, strangely at first, out of the militant
socialist rhetoric of Mao, Che, and Fidel.

"Racist” label
To the uneducated eye the Black Panthers may
well appear to be a "racist” group in their own
right: It is a para military organization surrounded
by strict secrecy, which not only prevents whites
from intervening in any way, certainly, but which
also fixes a suspicious stare on all "negroes,”
who, in the words of Huey Newton, are "potential traitors." The Panthers are strictly disciplined,,
highly organized and are rapidly becoming politi-

�cally sophisticated: membership is tightly regulated
and classes in political theory are an absolute
must in order to meet the standards of the
Oakland "father" group. Publicly, the Panthers
draw a definite color line.
Yet they are not racist. It is true that after
400 years of discrimination and white racism the

Panthers
to identify friends and enemies on the basis of
color. But to call that reaction "racism" would
be, first of all, to confuse racism with the results
of racism. It is better, and more accurate, to say
that after 400 years of discriminatory treatment
the black is "color conscious" rather than
racist: "That's Ku Klux Klan stuff," as Huey
would say.

Black and white

Further, the immediate impression one gets from
Black Panther speakers does not strictly mesh with
what the political and emotional leadership of
the Panther Party has to say. In Soul on Ice,
Eldridge Cleaver, Black Panther Minister of
Informationand Peace and Freedom Party
Presidential candidate, said: "There is a generation
of white youth that is truly worthy of the black
man's respect. . . Respect commands itself and
can neither be given nor withheld when it is due.”
If quotes are not enough, then the very fact
that the Black Panther Party maintains a coalition
with a predominantly white radical group, the
an arrangement which
Peace and Freedom Party
seems to be reciprocal and mutually beneficialshould offset the arguments about Black Panther
—

"racism."

The major political objective of the Black
Panther Party is a United Nations-supervised
"black plebesite" by which all "black colonial
subjects" in the United States would be able to
choose between remaining in the system or not.
If the Black Panthers were truly a "racist" organization no such choice would be made available
to the blacks. The movement would be deliberately
and defiantly separatist, as the Black Muslim
movement is and as the black power movement
pretends to be.

Cleaver himself was once a Muslim, but he
no longer sees the need to examine political
questions in black and white only. He speaks for
the Black Panther Party as a whole, where his
leadership is natural and popular, as is that of
Huey Newton (Minister of Defense) and Bobby
Seale (Chairman).
A street society

At first one would think there was a natural
gap between the Black Panther leadership —which

is politically sophisticated and predominantly
class-conscious rather than color-conscious—and
the more indigenous "rank-and-file" Panther, who

is street-educated and more subject to a color
line thought process. That would be a superficial
"at first" at best. The fact remains that all members of the Panther society are subject to rigorous
political education workshops even before their
official status evolves and that all the Black Panthers
are men of singular dedication and discipline
inspired by popular leaders. And although official
membership lists are—need I say—kept secret,
it is known that quite a number of Panthers are
drawn from the higher-educated and professional
ranks of black society.
Nevertheless, The Black Panthers are primarily
and
a "street" society. Their political emphasis
particular genius
lies in the urban ghettos. It
is there where the Panthers were born and it is
there where they naturally work best.
The reception the Panthers receive in the ghetto
areas varies widely, from nervousness and fear
to adulation and imitation. For the most part
however any reticence about the Black Panthers
comes from the ranks of the middle-aged and old,
who are generally fixed politically anyway, and
from the more financially established "Toms"
who would rather think white and who have no
influence in the ghettos. Reception to the Panther
Party is most enthusiastic among the young—as
in the white radical movement. It is the young
blacks who can most easily identify with the
neo-realism of the political Panthers, who are most
subject to change and its beacons, and who crave
the dignity and independence that the Panthers
—

—

seem to offer them.

Historical role

At this point it would be wise to examine the
role of the Black Panther Party in the general
historical schema of the civil rights movement.
To date, the civil rights movement can best be
described in a series of three stages, with the
Panther element representing a qualification of
the third, or Black Power, stage. The movement
has progressed from the days when all major civil
rights activities were carried out in the South
(Stage One) which, at least legislatively speaking,
was a success.
Stage Two moved the civil rights scene to the
industrial regions of the North. This met comparative failure. At the same time, black leadership
evolved, disenchanted with the leadership roles
of white liberals in the movement which were
good-naturedly patronizing at best.

From this stage it was natural that the moveshould polarize, due to its own racial infighting, and came to be known, in part, as the
Black Power movement. The Black Power movement itself took on various forms: Fringe groups,
such as the Black Muslims, had long demanded
total black separatism and quickly aroused a
great deal of new-found indigenous support. Radi
ment

�cally tense times seemed to demand radically
based solutions. The Black Muslim movement
was one of them.
Other more conventionally influential blacks
thought of the Black Power movement in terms of
establishing control of black social and economic
destiny, at the same time working within the
established political arena.

White colonialism
The Black Panthers represent a qualification of
this Third Stage in that they disavow both separatism and conventional political channels while still
retaining their own definition of Black Power.
The Panthers hold that the blacks in this nation
are subject to "colonialist" white powers. All of
their political action stems from this one basic
dichotomy: colonials (blacks) vs. colonialists
(ruling whites). Politically the Black Panthers do not
speak simply in terms of a black-white gulf, which
modifies their origins in the black separatist movements. Their ideas more closely resemble socialist
ones, where oppression is a class factor and not
necessarily a racial one.
Likewise, the Panthers repudiate any political
scheme which depends upon the conventional
political channels. They are not interested in
electoral politics, but only the publicity they stand
to gain from it. Along with the Peace and Freedom Party, The Black Panther Party seeks to
build an indigenous radical movement in this
country, one that will recognize its own power
and radically alter the system, giving power to
repressed elements.

-

For all that it hopes to accomplish, the coalition of the Black Panther Party with the Peace
and Freedom Party will remain on a "single-issue
basis": that is, there will be cooperation between
the two only when it is necessary and mutually
beneficial, as in the case of the voter registration drive for the Peace and Freedom Party,
which, before its contact with the Panthers, was
having trouble getting its name on the ballot
in California because of its lack of appeal in
the urban ghettos.

Radical coalition

The coalition between the two groups has
ever been an easy thing to maintain. From its
sry inception—which
revolved around the "single
lSu e
of the "Free Huey" campaign, for
hich the Panthers needed the publicity PFP
3uld provide—the
coalition has been wrought with
inflicts of interest on both sides. "Using the
‘her guy" W as a
common criticism of the coalion although it usually came from individuals out'de the two groups.
Continued
-UPI

�Inevitably, there were racially-based tensions,
but these were short-lived. The coalition today

remains a mutually supportive and mutually
beneficial one. White radicals recognize that they
need the black radicals and visa versa. Neither
side expects to eat shit.

Politically, the Panthers stand the best chance
of benefiting from the coalition. But this is not
what really matters. What is significant about
the coalition, what is stunning and unique about
■at; is the fact that it represents the first true
understanding between two radical groups with ad
mittedly different interests, but strikingly similar
goals. Only in terms of mutual understanding and
education, of psychological and ideological reciprocity, is the coalition really significant. It is the
first real attempt of whites and blacks to understand one another. And it was only possible
because both groups sought refuge and strength
in the New Left and in radicalism.

Each is a strong group, in their different ways,
and each has a great deal of self-respect. They

could well get along without one another, but
together they are something special—and
more powerful besides.
The Black Panther Party is a young movement (only two years old in California and six
months old in New York City) but it is a sign
of maturation and development in the concept
of black radicalism.

More important still, the link which the Black
Panthers have forged with the Peace and
and the indigenous radical
Freedom Party
movement that they are both striving for—could
very well place the Panthers in the vanguard of
the struggle for black liberation. The Panthers,
and the plight of their people, may well embody
the dynamic reality and high revolutionary potential
necessary for action.

�by Bruce Jackson
When Channing Phillips was
nominated at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago the
band played "We Shall Overcome,"
which presumably all darkies know
and like. When Humphrey was
nominated they played "Happy Days
Are Here Again," whichpresumably
Hubert knows and likes. Cut to
blood downtown: Police pushing
handcuffed demonstrator into police
van, a complex choreograph: two
cops pushing, a third pounding the
man's back, a fourth pounding his
head. They closed the door but a
leg was hanging out, so after a
while they stopped pushing on the
door, opened it, shoved the dangling
leg inside, then slammed it good.
Meanwhile, back near the stockyards
where the cattle wait to be butchered, the roll-call of the states
rolled on.

The Ascension
and pieces

of

Hubert: bits

When they polled for the presidential nominees the Illinois vote
was delivered by someone I didn't
know. Where was Dick Daley? Oho:
boos followed the delivery. Daley,
smart pol he is, knew they would
come and wasn't about to stand up
for that, so he had a flunky deliver
the votes for Humphrey, The votes
were Daley's present to the estabI ishment, but the boos went to someone else.
Then I was told that As we await
the start of the famous tissue race
tensions are running high
ScottTissue—350 sheets longer
and
Once upon a time only a child's
hair could have innocent color.
...

...

Now you can have it.
Flair pens
danced. Bruce refilled his glass
with pretty scotch and resumed observance
The hall almost empty now. Wal-

ter Cronkite sat with a finger in his
right ear, a phone to the other.
Away on a telephone Martin Agronski reported that HHH had paid no

attention to the demonstrators because they were "programmed."
Agronski said that Hubert, in his
hotel room, kissed the telly screen
when it flashed Muriel's image.

McCarthy HQ ran a bit differently,
turned into an emerg ncy hospital to handle the mangled bodies left behind by the cops.
One of McGovern's staffers, a girl,
going to the drugstore, was rapped

•t had been

in the mouth

by

a cop's billy club.

Another scene: a lady picked up
in her car to get them
away from a Scene. That was sometime in the afternoon, but the films
were late in developing. The soldiers closed off one end of the street
and wouldn't let her out. They harassed her with their equipment
two kids

and words, then laughed at her
predicament. A gasmasked corporal
with a grenade or teargas launcher
(something sinister anyway) screamed in the car window, his face only

inches from hers. I couldn't make
words: "Faster" or "Bastard," he screamed, maybe both.
Sticking his cannon in the lady's
face, screaming and screaming, finally forcing the kids out of the car.
The soldiers pointed bayonets and
out his

hid behind their teargas masks like

some freaky Friday night horror movie. Then, with no provocation at all,
and no necessity either since they
had their prisoners in tow, they

fired off the teargas. Whoosh. They
had the masks, the guns, the pellets. And the permit.
Solid phalanxes of soldiers and
helmeted police. A DON'T WALK
sign flashed away.
Other times at the Convention:
The star on the Democratic National Convention poster on the
podium looked like a Texas Ranger
badge.
A reporter tells Rosy Grier that
Daley claims the Hilton called for
police aid, that's why they were
there; Grier points out that Russia
recently said that Czechoslovakia
asked it for help.

TV shows a bald head over
HHH sign. A pretty
blonde girl smiling, beyond her the
world smoky and out of focus and
overbright. A fat face with a cigar
jammed right in the middle, as if
it were a caricature of The Boss
from a 1 935 Wobbly handout.
We learn that the New York del
which hovers an

egation's guest and alternate seats
have been given to Chicago gar
bagepnen, who bear press and dele
gate passes, and sit there with
Daley signs, looking tough.
Ribicoff says, "With George Me

McGovern as President we wouldn't
have to have the National Guard,”
Ribicoff says. Boos and jeers: Dal

so is Daley: he screams and yells
what looks like fuck you, fuck you,
but his mike is turned off and
we shall never know for sure.

bringing it all back home

�Digression on the Tube:
I think the two population groups
whose perceptions of the world
have been most changed by television are convicts and ghetto residents. (Children are fertilized by it,
not changed). Long-term convicts
used to come out of prison into a
world that was utterly alien, as jf
they had been locked in a time capsule; now they get to see the
changes as they occur, know about
the hidden windshield wipers and
antennas, about the raised skirts
and lengthened hair, and there is
not nearly so much cultural shock
on release. Ghetto residents now
see what before they had only words
about, what the differences are in
the lives they lead and the lives
of the millions of middle class cats
elsewhere. (Those people in Peyton Place may be hassled a lot but
they do it in comfort sure enough.)
Words are one thing, but people
never believe much evil when it's
words alone; words for things you
don't know have no connotati
they have denotations only. T

ries the whole magilluh: the connotations are distorted, but that's part
of the American scene anyway. I
tell you this because now, after
Chicago, the middle class has had
a partial two-dimensional Experience: they've learned something
about the police, something that
convicts and ghetto residents have
known all along: they really do do
those things to people.
Police are more accurate than
most folks in their appreciation of
the term "Law and Order." Police
realize that two words are there—law, order—and they are not necessarily inseparable, in fact, in practice they are often mutually exclusive. Police realize that at any particular moment they may have to

choose between the two; sometimes
the choice is difficult, sometimes
it is delicious. At Chicago it seems
apparent they went after what they
considered "order," which meant

pommeling into insensibility everything in sight that did not represent
Law. They pummeled not only to
clear the streets but also to get
even with every hippy and nigger
they could not get last time, the
time before that, or will maybe not
be able to get tomorrow. They
pummeled for love, for Old Glory,

for mother, for the barbers of the
nation.

We saw it, I saw it, you saw it,
Walter Cronkite saw it: that’s the
new declension. We were there
more than anybody because we were
able to switch channels, see it in
black-and-white or less-imaginative
living color (more or less): flip, flip,
blub, blub.
Do policemen really do those
things?

Ah suspects so.
But they only do it to criminals
to*people they know are guilty.
But ah didn't see no cautious
evaluation of moral status there in
the street. They even slapped a
priest up side a the head. They
Ti'/a done that.

Humphrey was the goat, and he
was in more ways than one and for
more people than one. For Lyndon,
of course, who, like Daley when he
let someone else cast the Illinois
votes, had enough boos and decided
to let someone else take the fall.
For the Democratic party itself. And
for Daley.

After the affair, people talked
about Daley as if he were some kind
of anachronism, some atavistic

throwback to the days when American politics was bareknuckle and
covert payoffs. The only people
who could say that about Daley are
those who don't realize that American politics still are bareknuckle
and covert payoffs. Richard Daley is
a man of the age, as much as Nixon
or Humphrey or Carmichael or any
other political figure working on
other people's fear and anguish.

Right now I have little difficulty
imagining a time when these events
become so frequent that the most
primitive computer can predict easily
the exact moment in any confrontation when the police actually throw
the teargas and begin using their
billyclubs with genuine affection.

In that time, some clever scientifically-grounded
intercommittee
seeking to avoid needless waste
and damage will convene a meeting
of the various leaderships and convince them that ritual enactment is
adequate, and they will on the spot
jointly hire the geniuses who produce the automated diaramas at Disneyland. These employees will create for them an urban street intersection (your town or mine) complete with stores and autos and
neon signs and appropriate background sounds and odors, populated by a group of angry strong
police on one side and angry naive
kids on the other (these latter may
be converted to Negroes by flipping

a microswitch hidden somewhere
it's just a matter of adjusting the
surface temperature of the mannequins to change the color and facial
feature configurations).
At the touch of a golden button, both sides will talk at one
another; at the touch of a silver
button the sides will yell; and at
the touch of a grey lead button
they will throw things and shoot
and inflict (repairable) damage upon
one another. And there will be two
button pushers, not one, a pusher
for each side, which preserves the
soupcon of chance, of volition, of
decision: when you buy your observer's ticket you will never know what
is going to happen; talk, shouts,
—

shots.

�To keep it all contemporary and
up to-date, the TV screens in the
store windows in the mockupcanbe
programmed to show a variety of
events, any one of which may have
precipitated the encounter: a political convention, a leader's

funeral,
an airplane
he.ing loaded with napalm. One TV
set should be tuned to a local station that gives time and weather

especially fetching addition
because this will always give the
true time and weather and will give

•ortress.

There is another phase to that
fantasy that I prefer to keep separate: it is some years later and we
are in a special place that looks
down on both control panels and
both button-pushers at once (though
they cannot of course see one another or us; they can't see one another
because they are in different rooms,
they can't see us because we're
imaginary). They are now wrinkled
parched old men, wearing neckties
and faithfully manning their posts,
pushing the buttons of their choice
as the computer hidden deep within
the bowels of the earth randomly
changes the events appearing on
the TV screens.
But no one comes to watch. No
laughs or cries or giggles or catcalls hurl from the galleries, and
there are not very many demonstrators and police any more because
time takes its toll even of machines.
And the ones that are left seem a
bit slow and creaky, but they man-

age to operate nevertheless. There
are enough to fight, which is all
that really matters, all that is really
important.

Important because outside, beyond the diaramaand the now-greenish great seals and beyond the now
silent snowflake trip and the motionless rusted monorail, and beyond the terrific mile-wide parking
lot with its flesh-tinted vapor lights
that no longer automatically flicker
on at dusk—there is nothing moving. No movement, no cars, no
strollers, no policemen, no dogs
there are no lights going on in the
motel and house windows, the marquees do not flash and ripple with
—

colors
there are no sounds at
all save the occasional sibilant of
an irrelevant piece of paper being
shuffled off somewhere out of sight
by a careless wind. No vehicle moves
and no siren cries, no child runs
and no bum begs.
Because those other people, the
—

’ageT

�who really did control, the
ones who always seemed to win,
the ones who had not only voices
but power, finally did have their
Ones

way about things and did work it
all out, their way. And played out
the game to its logical and natural
end.
But a few held on: we've seen
the models on film: waiting for the
end: Fred Astaire with his supercar on the beach down in Australia,
Harry Belafonte off in the hills with
the grey chick, Charlton Heston coming back at the end of his roundtrip to nowhere. Just like the movies.

And of course our two wrinkled
and parched old men, faithful, still
sitting there, neckties done neatly,
manning their posts, preserving the
Empire, nightly setting in motion

their people, their troops, their
world, all in response to the programmed tapes feeding up from
down below, and all the while that
one set gives us the temperature,
the time, the humidity. Gives them,
I mean, gives the two rotting old
men and their three buttons apiece,
the two old men choosing and pushing and waiting for another day to
come 'round so they may do it all
over again: gold, silver and lead,
gold, silver and lead.

When it was all over, the convention and my fantasy both, I reiced my glass and read Wittgenstein
until the paragraphs became as clear

and transparent as the frozen crystals, then had some more scotch
and read a Sears catalog until it
was as opaque as the silent TV
tube or as opaque as Wittgenstein
had been at the beginning, by which
time it was dawn and safe enough
to entertain the possibility of sleep.
But that didn't work either, so
I'm writing you this, to tell you
how it was out there in the wilds,
in the jungle, in the vicious wilderness of a livingroom with a TV set,
a wilderness that is now mine,
theirs, and friend, yours.

�after November:
a challenge to change

by I. Hayden Lynford
On New Year's Day, Walter Lippman, the
eternal liberal, wrote: "It is probable that Lyndon
Johnson will be renominated and not inconcievablethat he will be reelected." The plight of the
aged liberal is a problem in itself and let it suffice
to say that the Humphrey liberalism of 1 948 was
fine then, but the definitions of liberalism have
changed.

A man presented for the Presidency must
know the limitations of power. "Anyone who offers
himself or permits himself to be offered or supported for the Presidency must meet two or
three conditions of character and experience
and understanding. He must, I think, be able to
read with reasonable judgment the needs and
aspirations of the people of the nation. I think
a man who is presented for the Presidency must
also know the limitations that must be placed
upon the exercise of power in that office in which
you have the greatest concentration of influence
and power of any office in the modern world."
This philosophy of Sen. Eugene McCarthy cap
tures his concept of American democracy, and it
was in this spirit that he took his case to the
American people in November, 1967,
James Harvey Robinson once described political
campaigns as "emotional orgies which endeavor
to distract attention from the real issues involved
and paralyze what slight powers of celebration
man can normally muster." The elections of 1968
certainly validate this observation. And if it is a
mild understatement to say that not everyone is
overjoyed at the prospect presented by the choices
for the Presidency next week, the next question

we must ask involves the choices we may have
for the future.

Existential challenge
If we examine the velocity of change, both
in the definition of political liberalism and in the
role of the President we find there are necessary
commitments to make. Sartre said "there is no
reality except in action," and if we are ready to
accept the existential challenges in modern politics
there is no course but to dedicate ourselves to
involvement in the political system.
In the recently published The American Empire, Amaury de Reincourt parallels American
foreign policy to the events of the Roman Empire.
He states that we are bound to repeat the trends
of the Roman Empire; we are passing from the
Republic stage to the Empire, and the Presidents
are becoming Caesars. These trends are irreversable, he says, and adds that people are demanding
them and by implication liberals should accept
them.
Sen, McCarthy has a more sophisticated sense
of history. If he believed in Nietsche's "eternal
recurrence of the Same," he would not have

dared to challenge an incumbent president. His
disdain for the office as a "cult of personality
was obvious: "The office of the Presidency of
the U.S. must never be a personal office. A
president should not speak of 'my country' but
always of 'our country,’ not of 'my Cabinet' but
of 'the Cabinet,' not of 'my Ambassador',but of
'the U.S. Ambassador,'
It is belief in the need for sharing the responsibility that demonstrates his awareness of the
existential disenfranchisement prevalent in Amer
ica today. Americans are questioning whether or
not the government is responsive to their needs.
"

Page 21

�Americans from many parts of the country,
from different political, religious and cultural backgrounds joined together with great enthusiasm in
the primary campaign of 1968. A new constituency
emerged as a result of the McCarthy-Kennedy efA coalition of Americans who oppose violence
fort
as a solution to conflicts and rigid order as a reaction to change. Those who have put their full
energies into these campaigns have kindled the
hope that we can create an alternative to the
pyramids and hierarchies, a national policy that is
not determined by a military-industrial complex.
This coalition based on hope and concern for life
has included some twenty-five to thirty percent
of the country.
Whatever the outcome of the elections Tuesday, it will be necessary to channel these energies
into a continuing movement. The war in Vietnam
will not be ended, new Vietnams will not be prevented, we will not turn toward new priorities, we
will not be able to better the quality of life for
all Americans
unless there is a strong continuing movement toward these goals. If there is
no form to express the energies that have been
coalesced, they will fade away or fragment. The
result would be to leave the dehumanizing forces
in the country unchallenged.
—

—

Only history will tell if McCarthy or Reincourt
is correct.

What to do?
What does a concerned citizen do about this?
The popular support for Sen. McCarthy and the
late Robert Kennedy demonstrated that a large
number of Americans want new directions in our
foreign policy as well as in our domestic life.
They want to end the war in Vietnam and to
begin a policy which removes the continuing threat
of a thermonuclear war from our lives. They want
a society in which priorities are determined not
by military demands or technilogical possibilities,
but by a concern for the quality of life for all
Americans and especially for black Americans
who have been the victims of exploitation and
racism. They want the fullest participation of every
citizen in the affairs of his community, state and
country. They want to make the professed values
of America a reality.

Page 22

Ongoing structure
The task before us is to organize an ongoing
structure to keep alive our shared concerns and
to exercise a significant influence on American
public opinion. Such a structure should be broad
enough to include different kinds of political acti
vities. Some of us will want to begin working
now toward future elections. Others will want to
continue their work in educating people in the
process of party politics and in making the structure of the Democratic Party more open and responsive to all who wish to participate. Others
will wish to work within the Republican Party or

new communities, to improve education, and to
perform meaningful services for individuals and
groups in need of them. The general aim of the
movement is to humanize our society so that man
controls the machines rather than being programmed
by technical demands and possibilities.
There are different ways to create a structure
that will emphasize the common purpose of all
those who choose to express their energies in
any ol these political, educational, and cultural
activities. One such possibility is the creation of
decentralized groups or centers where individuals
would moot regularly with the purpose of exchanging intoimation, tor study and analysis of events,
and lot increasing the consciousness of the mem

bureaucratic and Centralized control. The program
ol those groups would address itself to the whole

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Pass-fail, 4-coiirse load

set for faculty debate
The Faculty Senate Executive Committee
Wednesday approved the establishment of a
four-course academic load in September, 1970.
The committee, the next-to-last step in the
pathway to educational reform at the University,
also approved several far-reaching academic innovations:
an extensive revision of the present degree program distribution requirements;
a five-year phase-out of the present lettergrade grading system, using written evaluations
and an “S U” system;
a provision to allow individual students
to plan their own curricula, beginning next fall;
the abolition of University-wide grade
rankings, with honors and prizes being given
on the "basis of grades and written evaluations.

1970, the requirement for a baccalaureate degree shall
be 128 hours—-based on 32 four-hour semester courses
—with an average of “C”, including the successful completion of a major field of concentration, either departmental or special.
A total of 32 hours would be required outside the
main area of knowledge in which the student has chosen
to concentrate. These “main areas” would be humanities, social sciences and science and technology.

Going to Faculty Senate
The Executive Committee’s recommendations will be
presented to the Faculty Senate for approval at its first
meeting sometime next month.
Dr. Thomas Connolly, vice-chairman of the committee, indicated that discussion of the recommendations
will involve “at least two meetings of the Senate.”
He indicated that the proposals will be presented
to the Student Association Coordinating Council and the
Millard Fillmore Student Association prior to their
examination on the floor of the Faculty Senate.
Regarding the innovative four-course load, the committee adopted a motion that, effective in September,

Major requirements set
The committee further urged that for Bachelor of
Science programs, requirements of the major and particular Faculty should not exceed 96 hours—24 courses
—three-fourths of the student's time.
Bachelor of
Arts programs, requirements of the major would not
exceed three-eighths of the student’s time; the combined
requirements of his major and Faculty would not exceed
half his time.
Also included was the stipulation that the Student
would be free to choose to work more extensively within
his major and Faculty, subject to the limitation of the
32-hour distribution requirement.
In addition to the 4-C9'J.rse load proposal, the committee said that a student should be alile to plan his own
curriculum. In September, 1969, according to the recommendation, provision would be made for a student to
design his own field of concentration. His plan would
be approved by two faculty members concerned with the
subject matter involved and by the dean of University
College through his faculty committees.
Dr. Connolly explained that a proposal was also
passed allowing for changes in the present distribution
requirement. This was acted on by the committee to

“put a limitation on the number of hours to be required
by the Faculties and outside departments.”

New grading alternatives
The committee also approved a three-way method
of grading for undergraduates. The resolution passed
is in line with proposals submitted last February by the
President's Student-Faculty Ad Hoc Committee on Grading and Ranking, headed by Dr. Alan Andreason, an
associate professor in the school of business.
Under the plan, in September, 1969, a faculty member would be able to announce prior to registration
which of tjiree grading methods, or combination of the
three, he intends to use. The alternatives would be
letter grading, written descriptions of the student’s performance and satisfactory-unsatisfactory grading. A
grade of “S” would earn credit and "U” would not.
A grade of “U” would not be equivalent to an “F,”
since grade-point averages would be computed only on
the basis of courses in which the student has received
letter grades. To facilitate the recording of written
evaluations, an asterisk would be placed on the transcript and the evaluation would be placed in the student’s file. A general notation would appear on the
transcript designed to make sure that those using it
would read the evaluation.
Undergraduates would be allowed to take up to
25% of their courses under “S/U” grading.
Including in thfe grading proposal was the provision that in order to provide information for any future
evaluation of the new system, an experimental group
of undergraduate students would be allowed to take aii
credits toward their degrees on the “S/U” basis of
grading.

At the end of the first five-year period, the threepart grading system would be assessed for its educational
effectiveness. The committee also stipulated that no
University-wide rankings of students would be computed,
and University honors and prizes would be given after
a consideration of both grade-point average and written
evaluation.

The 1968 Olympic Games of Mexico, first’ ever held in Latin
America, passed into the history books in a dramatic closing ceremony
that turned into a night warm with Latin excitement and promises to
meet again at the next Olympics in Munich, Germany,, in 1972.
The happy throng of more than 80,000 that chanted “Viva Mexico,

The meeting at the presidential palace lasted about 45 minutes.
A spokesman said another session was scheduled later. There was no
comment on what was discussed.
Prime Minister Tran Van Huong of South Vietnam said in remarks reported by the Vietnam press agency, the “main obstacle” to
peace was a North Vietnamese demand that representatives of the
National Liberation Front (NLF), the political arm of the Viet Cong,

The University’s Young Republicans refused to participate in a
debate Friday among leaders of
political organizations concerning

the controversial issues involved
in the upcoming presidential election.
P. Steven Sickler, representing
the Young Republicans, took his
place on the rostrum and made
the following statement:

“This meeting today is called
a debate . . . We cannot agree
that the format meets that criterion . . . Some people will say
we are afraid to debate. This is
a lie.
“On the contrary, we challenge
individually each of the parties
to debate us betweep now and election day . , . We feel that this
so called ‘debate’ will be no more
than a mudslingiijg sesssion , . .
we do not condone mudslinging
. . . For those who do, we have
a little present—four pallets of
mud. Use it well as you have in
the past.”

Of the 100,000 protestors predicted by march leaders about
30,000 showed up to chant “Ho Ho Ho Chi Minh” at the embassy,
police said. Fifty police held hlcm away from the embassy.

No change sought

The big march suffered when anarchists got lost between platoons
of the National Lunacy Front and the supporters of Mao Tse-Tung
kept skipping ahead of irate parade leaders. The Maoists produced a

The Young Democrats for Humphrey have accepted the challenge to debate individually and
arrangements are being made for
a debate Friday,
Next to make his opening statement was Stan Klein representing (he Young Democrats for
Humphrey, who called Mr. Sicklcr
a “coward” and said that the
Young Republicans’ refusal to debate was consistent with Mr. Nixon’s refusal to discuss vital issues. He then discussed the reason why the Johnson administration had thwarted presidential

candidate Hubert Humphrey’s

cause of democracy, but for Am

“Hubert Humphrey’s past,” Mr.
Klein said, “has been forgotten.”
He recalled Mr. Humphrey's work

Rights Bill and Nuclear Test Ban

He said Vice President Hum-

North Vietnam should be stopped,
and that he was in agreement
with President Johnson’s policies

of the President.

former Vice President in which
he said he had a plan for ending
the war in Vietnam. However, he
said, when vice presidential candidate Spiro Agnew was asked to
discuss this plan, he said no such
plan existed, except as a political
fallacy.

'■’Humphrey has his faults," Mr.
Klein continued, “but he at least
gives us some hope.”

Mark Schneider, representing
the Socialist Workers Party, next
contended that “what is needed
today is a social revolution
against American capitalism."
He said that the masses of
working people have become no

Mr. Rudin then termed Mr.

by Mark Schneider

A principal sign of the failure of American democracy to relate to the real
problems of the world is the attitude American citizens have toward their government. Americans relate to their government, that is, act “meaningfully," to give
it direction once a year on election day
when they choose between several candidates who essentially agree with each
other. The winner governs for a term, and
the citizen goes home to grumble about
high taxes.
The emptiness of this sort of politics

is reflected in the fact that so few citizens
even bother to vote. Voting here, as The
Guardian put it, is “like being offered
several brands of poison and instructed to
mak- a free choice.”
True, radical parlies get on the ballot,
after waging long legal struggles, in most
cases. However, there is more to democracy than getting on a ballot. Radical
parties are completely ignored by the
mass media, whose role it is to define the
limits of “responsible debate.” “Responsible debate” runs from LeMay to McCarthy. and electoral politics to the left
are joked about. Thus while Look magazine has recently run an honest article
about SDS, they have not yet examined
the Peace and Freedom Party.
The following endorsement of Fred Halstead, Socialist Workers Party candidate
for president, is written with this understanding of electoral politics in mind, Halstead isn’t running to win, but to educate
people to a perspective and program on
which they can act in their daily lives.
The center of the SWP’s campaign is
that it calls for a socialist America. It
realizes that built into capitalism is the
exploitation of blue and white collar working people by the cla iss that owns the
means of production. G&lt; •eneral Motors will

with it is that it has a “minimum radical

�University policy on faculty
hiring and firing discussed
by Elaine Rosenberg
Spectrum

Staff

Reporter

There is a growing awareness among State University
of Buffalo students toward the imbalance in the present
system of hiring and firing of faculty members. The burgeoning SUNY system is bound by a method that many
claim is detrimental to education.
The doctrine of “publish
or perish” and the degree requirements that faculty members must meet often seemingly conflict with the educational goals of the University.
In practice, the procedure of
appointment varies from department to department, with the
general principle of doctoral requirements becoming mandatory
after a certain time period. This
has had two consequences—both
unfavorable to undergraduates: a
scarcity of retainable teachers
and the undesirability of teachers without PhDs.
The possession of this “union
card,” when used as a yardstick
for evaluating teachers, is unrealistic in regard to the needs
of the undergraduate. They ask:
“Does possession of a PhD necessarily make one a good teacher?
If knowledge is measured solely
by "the doctorate and published
material, how does one evaluate
the good and betler-than-good
teacher without his PhD?”
Often cases are brought to light
concerning the loss of valuable
people for lack of fulfilling requirements. Last year, the case
of Mr. Bill Harrell of the Sociology Department was publicized.
Now an even more pressing
example is being presented in I he
case of a faculty member in the
French Department who is leaving as a result of not completing
University requirements. She is

A remedy
The symptoms of undergrade
ate neglect, large classes and the
increasing dependence on graduate students for instruction or
guidance (“If you have a problem,
make an appointment to see my

Speaking to a sparse audience
in Norton Hall, Steve Simmons
said: “We genuinely feel that
everything we’ve worked for over
the past ten years is at stake.”
Describing the relationship between the student movement and
the campaign, Mr. Simmons said
that the “spirit of student determination and participation began
with the election of John Kennedy.” He cited Peace Corps volunteers, freedom riders, and antiVietnam war demonstrators as indications of student activity during the decade. He feels that the
late President Kennedy “generated a spirit of participation and
interest.”
Continuing, he said that all the
objectives of student efforts are
in danger of extinction because

Mr. Simmons then discussed
several of the major issues, stressing Mr. Humphrey's assets and
Mr. Nixon’s weaknesses.
Speaking about the Vietnam
war, he said that Mr, Humphrey
and Mr. Muskie advocate political solutions and de-escalation, including immediate cease fire, free
elections in South Vietnam, and
ultimately complete withdrawal
of troops. Mr. Nixon, he added,

in which the general recommends

works of man are eradicated.
He then discussed the candidates’ civil rights attitudes indicating that Mr. Humphrey is
“one of the most dynamic advocates of civil rights. Reinforcing
this remark, he said that the
Vice President was one of the
key Senate supporters of civil
rights bills. Mr. Simmons also
described him as “one of the most
creative legislative advocates of
helping cities.”
Mr. Nixon, according to Mr.
Simmons, has “chosen to ally himself with the most reactionary
elements in this society.”
Aid to education
Turning to education, he revealed that Mr. Humphrey “has
been called the ‘father of federal
aid to education’.” The Vice
President has proposed and
guided project Head Start through
Congress, he noted.
A brief question period followed the speech in which he was
asked Mr, Humphrey’s reaction
to the actions of the Chicago police. He replied that he was with
the Vice President who felt
strongly for the people being
hurt. Describing the atmosphere
in Chicago, he said: "It wasn’t a
picnic.”

He then directed his attention
toward campaigning in Buffalo
during the remaining days before the election. Noting the
small attendance, he expressed
surprise at alleged student apathy. In an appeal to the audience, he said: “Buffalo is a critical area . . . student effort can
make a difference.”

Amherst groundbreaking Inursday
•

Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller will speak at groundbreaking ceremonies for the first
six colleges of the new Amherst campus. It will be held at 2 p.m. Thursday. The expected completion date of this first phase of construction for the new campus is fall
1971.

Among those participating will be Seymour H. Knox, chairman of the Council
of the State University of Buffalo, who will preside over the groundbreaking ceremonies. State University Chancellor Samuel B. Gould, and President of the State
University of Buffalo Martin Meyerson will also attend and participate in the symbolic
soil turning.

Richard Schwab, president of the Student Association; James W. Gaynor, chairman of the State University construction fund, and other representatives of faculty,
alumni and the town of Amherst will participate in the program.
At the groundbreaking ceremonies to be held at a site midway between Millersport Hwy. and Sweet Home Rd., the State University of Buffalo Band will play the
national anthem and the alma mater. The University's Air Force ROTC Color Guard
will present colors.
A demonstration is planned by the national fraternities in response to a state
ruling which outlaws them from the State University campuses.

At the groundbreaking site, models of the first six colleges will be on display.
The new colleges will offer special features such as a craft shop, computer facilities,
a swimming pool and theater space, in addition to residential and dining facilities.
Following the ceremonies, a reception will be held at the Ridge Lea campus in
building 4236. Shuttle buses will leave Diefendorf Annex at 15-minute intervals beginning at 1 p.m. for anyone wishing to attend.

F reshman seminar program

An opportunity for less structured interaction between faculty

Most of the seminars are limited to 15 students, offering a small
classroom atmosphere, according
to Stewart Edelstein, assistant to
the dean of University College.
Also, it will allow freshmen to
interact with a faculty member,
rather than a graduate student
or instructor, in a field of interest to both of them.
Initiated this semester, a few
of the seminars will be repeated
in the spring. However, most of
the topics will be new.
Some of the seminar topics include “Revolution,” which will be
taught by Dr. William Lucas;
“Science and Society” by Dr.

provided a good mixture of students.

Mr. Edelstein hopes that eventually every department on campus will offer at least one freshman seminar. Presently, the question whether this program will
fulfill any distribution requirements is being discussed.

‘Time Out’for discussions
of University change begins
Today is the first of two “Time Out” days
for each student to “do his fair share in the
University by contributing time and ideas
to the campus.”
Ellen Price, National Student Association
coordinator, expressed her hope that all
students will participate in the two-day series
of panels and seminars on educational innovations.
Professors have been requested to cancel
classes today and Wednesday to facilitate
participation.
NSA regional coordinator Richard Miller
has termed the Time Out as set aside for
“people talking about their problems, enabling them to develop a sense of community. As well, the Time Out Day will hopefully
help students establish a sense of identity by
focusing on the problems of an individual in
3 number-oriented university.”

center around issues such as SCATE, Bulle-

tin Board projects, pass-fail, elimination of
basic distribution requirements, open campus and student rights.
A rotating panel composed of students,
faculty and administration will moderate.
However, students can speak about any
phase of the University with which they are
concerned.
Indicating that the purpose of Time Out
Day is “constructively to rally the students
on campus,” Miss Price said that people will
get together “so they can see they all have
comon problems they can fight for.”

Today’s program
From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. today, a series of panels will
initiate discussion in the Haas Lounge, Norton Hall. Intended to serve as forums, they will be open to discussion
from the floor. The participants in these “rotating forums”
will be as follows;
10 p.m.

Ellen Price, NSA coordinator; Richard Miller, regional

�Foreign students
to centralize clubs
Hitchhiking may be a nice way

Foreign students on campus
now have their own formal organization, as a result of a refer-

endum held last week.

to get home for

the

Thanksgiving recess.

Nabil Alarai, president of the
International Club, said that although all of the ballots had not
been returned, 94% of the votes
from foreign students favored the
formation of such a group.

A meeting of foreign student
leaders was held Thursday, Mr.
Alami explained, and a six member committee was formed to
draft a constitution for the organization. After it is drafted, a
copy will be sent to every foreign
student on campus.
Voting to accept or reject the
document will take place at foreign student club meetings. There
are approximately 14 such clubs,
Mr. Alami said. These clubs will
be “centralized under one organization.”

The organization will consist of
20 members, all elected by the
foreign students. “We will have
a president, vice-president, secre-

tary, treasurer and three indelarge. The
other 13 members will be the
elected representatives of the
existing clubs,” Mr. Alami ex-

pendents elected at

plained.

«Larry Barwick, a Canadian student also working on the organization, indicated that “in order
to avoid running as an independ-

ent, foreign students must organize themselves into groups."
For this reason he is attempting
to organize the Canadian students.

Committees to form
Mr. Alami explained that the
organization will be made up of
various committees “to help foreign students channel their in-

terests and to

expose their ideas

to American students. It was felt
that in the past the foreign students never went beyond the
stage of social activities.

“We feel that we have a responsibility not only to foreign
students but to the academic community in general.
“We feel that nothing concrete
has been done for the foreign
students; we are no longer a protectorate, with everybody trying
to be nice to us. Foreign students
should be given the opportunity
to prove their capabilities.
“We are giving the foreign
students an organization whereby
they will be encouraged to participate. In this way we will be
more effective and we will be
able to play a more positive role
in campus life.”
The organization will, Mr. Alami hopes, internationalize the
campus. “Foreign students will be
exposed to each other's cultures,
not just the American culture,”
he concluded.

Quebec college system
immobilized by strike

But many never make it to the Thruway.

Special to The Spectrum

Over 40,000 students in Quebec’s junior vocational college
system, were in the second week
of a mass strike last week. Ten
schools fell into student hands,
eight others were closed, and at
the Universtiy of Montreal in the
province’s capital city, 8000 students boycotted class and occupied buildings.

Sympathy demonstrations at
private schools in the province,
such as McGill University, were
held. The French Canadian students began their protest at
Sainte Therese, a village near
Montreal. It concerned the alleged
disorganized curriculum and arbitary cancellation of courses.

The System of General Professional S c h o o I s—abbreviated in
French as CEGEP—-is the first
phase of a planned overhaul of
the Quebec school system.
The students’ major demand on
is a second Frenchspeaking university, as 60G of
the CEGEP students are denied
higher education for lack of
space. One is scheduled to open in
Montreal in Sept. 1969. Other

grievances are the lack of schol
arshlp and loan funds.

Student police
Abbe Charles Valois, principal
of the Lionel Grouix College in
Ste; Therese, said: "Let them occupy the school if that is what
they want. I don’t plan to call the
police. We’ll simply move out,
that’s all."

Student union president Denis
Drapeau promised to maintain
law and order with a student
police force of 250 as long as the
campus is occupied.
At the University of Toronto
in Ontario, a faculty group withdrew a plan to let 100 students
participate in discussions and vote
on the future of the institution.
The plan had been criticized by
the Student Administrative Council as humiliating, as it selected
100 students to speak for a group
of 1000. Despite arguments that
some representation was better
than none, the professor who had
introduced the plan withdrew it
because of SAC opposition. He ad-

ded. however: “We support the

�Latin American universities in trouble
Special to

The

Spectrum

Latin American universities are under attack. The assailing forces are clearly outlined. First, there are the rightwing military dictatorships and the entrenched anti-Communist “reformist” governments who are insisting on an evergreater control over higher education.
Second, there is the government of the U.S. whose Agency for International Development is carrying out a multimillion dollar master plan for
the remodeling of the Latin
American universities along
American lines, with the cooperation of domestic educational institutions.
While the motive behind this
university program is ostensibly
the improvement of education,
the motives are political, The
key word is control. The university is being attacked because it
is one of the few institutions in
Latin American society that is
traditionally beyond the control
of the entrenched internal and
external powers, and one of the
few consistently radical elements.

Elitist paradox
The Latin American university
is a paradox. It is highly elitist:
in most countries, only 2% of the

population ever enters its portals.
Although university education is
usually free, poor people usually
fall by the wayside early in the
game because they arc forced to
go to work for economic reasons,
or because public secondary

schools are inadequate and pri-

vate ones too expensive.

The paradox lies in the emergence of radical thought and action. Marxism has created a large
number of' students who reject
their capitalist heritage and, at
least for a while, dedicate themselves to some form of socialist

politics.
Che Guevara was Such a declasse. So is Fidel Castro. So are
a significant portion of the young
men and women who have taken
up arms in guerilla warfare
against native elites and the
United States, and so are the
people who raise the cry of student-worker unity in Brazil and
Argentina. They are more familiar with the work of C. Wright
Mills, Herbert Aptheker and oth-

%r North American leftists than

are most Americans.
The most politicized element in
Latin America, the university was
selected as a prime target for
those whose interests are threatened by the radical student community. Given the nations of academic freedom and free speech,
it was impossible for the reformists and the U S. openly to assail
the university on ideological
grounds.

Justification for U.S.
It was accordingly necessary to

find another justification for
American involvement in the university. The poverty and social
chaos of most Latin American
countries created other problems:
Duplication of courses, underpaid
part-time professors, inadequate
facilities, etc.

The reorganization and beefing
up of the universities with the
help of AID funds signifies far
more, however, than the resolution of these problems of superstructure. The attack on the university is based on the desire
to-completely restructure the purpose of the university.

tical.

ican students are raising aloft
the banners of student power.
This concept in Latin America
goes back to the “reforma universitaria” launched by students at
the University of Corboda in Argentina in 1918.
At that time several important

rights were won: University autonomy prohibiting entrance of
police or armed forces on campus
and guaranteeing universities '2%
of the national budget; direct

Although in many cases not
fully implemented, these milestone reforms are held sacred by

Latin American students.
According to AID Information
Officer Harry Sylvester, these reforms have “made a shambles” of
education and are being “flagrantly abused.” He said: “We’re
trying to help the poor devils,
but the Corboda reforms have
been used for political reasons.”
He called the "professional student-organizer” a “threat to the
government.”

More useful roles
Mr. Sylvester also charged that
political activism interferes with

students’ studies.
In part, he explained, the idea
is to channel the students into
more useful roles in their society.
He called their attitude toward
“snow-white Communism and
coal-black capitalism” naive.

Bogdan traces
native socialism
“Socialism, as an international
movement, derives its force and
energy as a reflection of the
people’s desires. I believe it is
a perfect framework of the nation’s culture, the nation’s ident-

ity."

Cornelu Bogdan, Rumanian ambassador to the United Nations,
expressed this view Thursday in
an address sponsored by the International Club, He explained
the role of socialism in his country’s present development and
key events in Rumania’s past.

Ambassador Bogdan traced
his nation’s modem

events in
history:

“After being swept by social
upheaval and the catastrophy of
the Second World War, we saw
new progress and development,”
Ambassador Bogdan said. "Our
country became industrialized, we
raised life expectency from 40 to

67 and made the universities free.
We still have very far to go."

Memories of defiance
Rumania is perhaps best-remembered for defying Nikita
Khrushchev's COMECON plans
that it remain a producer of raw
materials, and for insisting upon
industrialization. It still faces the
problem of economic independence, but is “a socialist state and
believes this was an answer to her
problems,” the ambassador commented.

“We rely primarily on our own
resources and we should not ask
for philanthropy from other nations," he explained, "but we
know we can’t do it all alone.”
Mr. Bogdan called for “a new

code of ethics for small nations
excluding force” and for “full
equality in international affairs.”
When asked if he would ever support an international league for

ment.”

Rumania was formerly one of
the most bitterly anti-Communist
nations in Eastern Europe. Until
the end of World War II, there
were fewer than 500 adherents to
their Communist Party. The
“Fascist Iron Guard" had formed
the nucleus of a totalitarian par,

ty.

Then came the post-war elections, Mr. Bogdan remarked, during which Russia disregarded the
promises made at Yalta for free
elections, and gave decisive support to the Communist Party. Rumania began a series of helpful
economic reforms. Concessions
from the Russians in the form
of economic assistance alleviated
many chronic difficulties.

Island of docility
Rumania has remained an island of relative docility and compromise in an otherwise agitated
part of the Iron Curtain block.
Ambassador Bogdan displayed
this attitude when questioned
about the rift between the Soviet
Union and Eastern Europe, especially Czechoslovakia.
He believes there are “two important distinctions to be made:
First, there are the differences of
opinion among the diverse forms
of socialism. “They are nothing
to worry about—-in fact, they are
a healthy phenomenon," he said.
Secondly, there are the outward manifestations of the rift.
“These conflicts,” the ambassador

pointed out, “are brought about
by differences contrary to the
spirit of socialism and appear because the principles of social-

ism have been violated.”

However, Mr. Bogdan repeatedemphasized cooperation between old and newly-formed socialist states:
ly

“What unites us is more important than the exaggeration of
polemics. When men are ready
to fight for the cause—this is
what is important."

Director faces challenge

Editor’s note: This is the second

progression of the Student Theater

If you watch a rehearsal of

hair, who seems to be in a dozen

This man of many talents is

Lunch Band

The members of the New Chicago
Lunch Band will perform a Halloween concert Thursday night.

Chicago Lunch set

Continuing' their crusade to
combat viccral venalities—a disease of the mind that affects
the guts—the New Chicago Lunch
will he unveiled Thursday evening in the Fillmore Room.
Their program includes an or-

iginal symphony written explicitly for the Family Tree Light
Show, as well as a major composition, the John Cagein Opus,
written especially for the group.
In addition they plan a threeguitar dedication to Bo Diddly
and 1958 rock and an audience
participation raga. The audience
is invited to , dress for the occasion with no preconceived lim-

itations on what to expect.
The members of The New Chi

and contemporary classical music.

“Jamming" is also an integral

was significantly
noted recently by Al Kooper, formerly of the Hides Project. As the

that moves the people."

include a light show. The concert is being sponsored by the

ture Drama Festival), “Servants
of the People” and the Theater
Department's production of Euripedes’ “Orestes.” East year he

created the role of Bill in “The
Collection.”
Musical comedy holds a special
interest tor Bob. He appeared in
“Once Upon a Mattress” and “The
Cradle Will Rock” (both at this
University). In 1967 he was offered the role of Linus in the
New York company of “You’re
a Good Man Charlie Brown,”
which he was forced to decline to
complete his academic studies.
It is no surprise then that' Robert chose a musical for his proposal to the Student Theater
Guild for their fall production.
I asked Bob to explain how the
decision to produce “Sweet Charity” was reached:
“It has been two years since a
full musical comedy has been presented at the State University of
Buffalo. I started considering
plays for the Theater Guild's major production during the summer. I thought in terms of a musical because I think musical comedy is a definite art form. Almost
everyone, without exception, loves
a good fun musical. It draws a
big audience and appeals to a
wide range of people in the University and in the community. A
musical is a good way to involve
as many people as possible in a
production and attracts a lot of
new talent.
“I knew we would have to do
our fall production in the Fillmore room and of the shows
which were available and feasible. both economically and technically, 1 liked ‘Sweet Charity’
the best. It is very important to

like the show that one is directing,”

Bob's proposal to produce
“Sweet Charity” was presented to
the Student Theater Guild this
fall and was heartily approved by
a vote of the membership.

Technical problems

Presenting a play in the Millard Fillmore room leads to many
technical problems. There is no
stage. Either one has to use the
floor as a playing area and raise
the seats, or create a stage with
platforms. Robert rejected the latter idea: “Dancers on platforms
sound like a herd of elephants!”
Along with the problem of a
playing area are other difficulties. There is no provision for
hanging lights, so expensive lighting equipment must be rented.

The

acoustics in the Fillmore

room are terrible and sound
equipment must be used to magnify voices. Because there is no
backstage area, scenery must be
cut to a minimum.
But Bob Nigro has taken these

deficiencies in the Fillmore room
and used them to his advantage:
‘‘I am trying to create direct
physical contact between the actors and the audience. Through
lighting effects we will bring the
spectator into the show. In some
scenes the actors will go directly
into the audience, increasing the
involvement.”
Fast paced
Contact with the audience is
but a small part of Robert Nigro’s
over-all conception of ‘‘Sweet
Charity.” "The key to the style of
‘Sweet Charity’ is that it is veryfast paced." he said. One scene
overlaps the next. The success or
failure of the show depends on
the timing. Without the proper
pacing the effect is lost.
"I’m also making use of a lot
of stop-action tableaux. They
work as if someone had taken
a still picture.
"I am giving the actors a great
deal of freedom, but I want the
entire show to appear choreographed. Every step should mean
something—every movement part

of a whole instead of a single
entity.
'Sweet Charity's has a feeling
of now. There are stock characters but they are so overdrawn
that they are funny. For example,
Vittorio Vidal is so typical of the
stereotyped Italian movie-star
that you have to laugh at him.”
-

“

Friend and director
“Sweet Charity” is unique in
that it is the first all-student produced musical here. As a student,
Robert Nigro is faced with some
obstacles not usually encountered
by a director:
“I have a really great cast and
1 iove them all. But 1 find it difficult to be a student-director
I know most of the cast and crew
on a personal basis. It is hard to
make the transition from friends
to director.
“I’ve developed a new respect

for directors. I realize the mono
mental task they take on. Everyone from the choreographer to
the musical director to the girl
sewing hems on the costumes
comes to me with their problems.”

The new Theater Workshop will

the audience.”
So said a student who has been
through the experience of the
Buffalo Theater Workshop. There
are many like him who might
not be able to share his experience, for the Buffalo Theater
Workshop is in danger of fold
ing. Idealistically it is sound;
financially it is on the rocks.
To attempt to remedy this situation, the workshop is organizing a fund-raising campaign intended to raise the $50,000
needed to sustain its operations
during the coming year.

Channel for creativity
The idea , of a Theater Workshop for young people—free of
charge—has arisen in response
to a number of pressing needs in
the community. Children today
may be full of energy and vitality, yet they have few opportunities to channel this energy into
something creative and worthwhile. The Buffalo Theater Workshop was formed in order to help
give this energy a direction and
purpose.
“We believe that a training pro-

gram which emphasizes self-expression, sympathy for the aspirations of others and the common
goals of artistic integrity is a vital
contribution to the city and society in which we all woul,d like
to live.” This is an official statement from the workshop and out-

lines where they think their stand
is in relation to the community.
Originally funded by the New
York State Council on the Arts

and

jointly sponsored

by

the

New York City Theater Workshop

and Cooperation Urban Extension
Center, the Buffalo Theater Workshop has been in operation since
the beginning of the summer
months.
It has presented plays, dances
and improvisations all over the
area. It has a staff of six and a
company of 50.

The Workshop grants have

Council on the Arts is very enthusiastic and poor. In the hope
of raising $50,000 necessary to
train 50 to 75 young people Once

and daily during the summer,
the Workshop is making a special
plea to persons in the Western
New York area.
Workshop officials point out
that all contributions are tax deductible.

The safety coordinator of the State University
of Buffalo issued the following statement Wednesday concerning stray dogs on campus:
Two members of the University staff were bitten by dogs on campus in the past week. One victim
received a serious bite necessitating hospital care,
while the other was treated and released. The
owner of the dog was located. However, he could
not attest to the fact that the dog had rabies shots.
As a result, the employees suffered emotional stress
in addition to physical injuries, due to the possibilities of painful periodic medical treatment.
We are requesting that all students, faculty and
staff stay clear of stray dogs on campus and report

In "The Attendant." Jerry improvises around what Mike is

you get a sense of how important

dying patients. You feel the

Fattening the bulls
by Richard Baumgarten

Once upon a time, in the tiny banana republic of Sunyabo, there
was a matador named El Medico who was an expert with the bulls.
Now the good people of Sunyabo decided they wanted more people
to watch El Medico and the bulls. It seemed that the people in the
adjacent Banana Republic were getting all the business. The bull
stadium in that Banana Republic was more modern and up-to-date,
and the people were going elsewhere.
“Something has to be done so people will come back into our
bull ring and watch El Medico and the bulls,” said a Sunyabo bull
fan. “If no one comes to see the bulls, the spirit will flee from our
republic of Sunyabo. No one will come here, and our bananas will
wither and die on the vine.”

So the people of Sunyabo approached El Presidente whose
name was El Suave, and they asked him if they could have a meeting
of the Politico so that everybody could have a voice in the matter.
El Suave agreed that a meeting of the Politico was in order, and
together everyone went down to the town hall which hadn’t been
used in 20 years.

The Buffalo squad is now 4-3
on the season while the Crusaders
slumped back to 1-3-1 in their
campaign,
With a fourth down and one
yard to go situation Buffalo quarterback Denny Mason called for
a time out with a little more than
nine minutes remaining to be
played in the game. The Bulls
were down 9-7. Mason ran over
to the sidelines for a quick decision from coach Urich who
sent in his field goal unit.
Jack Wesolowski snapped the
ball from center perfectly to holder Joe Moresco, who set the ball
down on the 17-yard line, Embow
placed his toe underneath the
ball and sent it through the crosswinds and the uprights for the
pressure-packed three point field
goal to put the Bulls ahead to
stay, 10-9,

Crusaders open scoring

Holy Cross had opened up the
scoring in the first half after
Mason threw the ball away on a
pitchout. Crusader senior linebacker Paul Scopetski fell on the
ball at the Buffalo 21-yard line,

touchdown which put the Bulls
ahead 7-6 in the middle of the
third quarter of play. The Bulls
started this drive after exchanging punts at the beginning of the
second half. Mason engineered
the 55-yard march by mixing
some fine running plays with a
couple of long-yardage passes to
tight end Paul Lang.
After fullback Joe Zelmanski
fumbled the ball for the second
time in the game Mason recovered to continue the drive at the
Holy Cross 19-yard line and a
first down. He then connected on
a short pass to split end Dick Ashley at the eight yard line who
toted the ball to the one. With a
first-and-goal situation senior tailback Kenny Rutkowski took the
Mason handoff and went over
right tackle for the score.

HC retaliates
The visitors retaliated early in
the fourth period of play with
a drive ending at the Buffalo sixyard line. The Crusaders had a
fourth-and-five situation and head
coach Tom Boisture called on his
sophomore placekicking specialist
to attempt a field goal from the
Buffalo 12-yard line. The kick
was good and the Bulls were behind once more, 9-7.
Embow’s field goal closed out
the scoring for the afternoon.

A beginning

Criticizes American hypocrisy

When the Faculty Senate meets in a few weeks to begin
discussing the Executive Committee’s recommendations for
academic reform, it will not merely be analyzing the worth
of specific programs, but rather will be deciding the fate of
the University.
The suggestions from the various University-wide committees included in the Executive Committee recommendations are important beginnings in the institutionalizing of
innovative ideas. The most important thing for the faculty
to consider is that a beginning must finally be made.
The recommendations are obviously all only intermediate steps toward a restructuring of the present tired, oppressive University structure. However, these recommendations
—or something like them—are needed immediately. Nearly
all of the suggestions have been experimented with in individual instances in the past year, and it is time all students
are given the opportunity to take advantage of them.
“Do you see a candidate on the horizon for disThe Student Polity and Millard Fillmore Student Assoenfranchised voters”
ciation should come up with resounding endorsements of the
general recommendations before the Faculty Senate meeting. If the faculty then consider watering down the already
compromised proposals, or in rejecting them completely,
they should be aware they would be rebuking not only the

point of order

Time to uncover
Buffalo Police Commissioner Felicetta hoped it would be
just another routine brutality cover-up. He‘s always had good
luck quieting things down in the preliminary stages of a controversy, even in many cases involving the most flagrant acts
of police aberrance.
“Persuasive” police violence has generally been of two
types: the head-whacking variety, used in crowds; and the
body-punch, open-hand (no-bruise) variety used in precinct
interrogations. Apparently some policemen have decided
that the latter method is no longer effective. The most recent alleged incident in Buffalo seems to be an example of
increased use of the head-whacking variety. Ah that makes
the cover-up job very difficult.
This time there was not one cop, but an entire precinct.
Hard to find a scapegoat there. And the officers got careless
in their precinct house work-over and left bruises, even sending two kids' to the hospital.
Even more disturbing is the Commissioner’s quick “investigation” of the incident, implying that he was fully aware
such a raid was a planned encounter. In any case he is fully
responsible, particularly in the light of his blanket exoneration of the Sixth Precinct men.
If we assume that the cop roughnecks were merely following orders, it hints at a steady campaign of harassment
by the Buffalo Police Department against what it considers
the dangerous elements of the young leff. If we assume that
all the officers involved in the incident acted independently.
initiating the entire incident because they all went, berserk

or because they felt the urge to somehow prove their chauvinistic beliefs, we find a disturbing psycho-political phenomena, of which mad cops are only one expression. In either
case, the guilt is indirectly shared by all of us, but must be
directly assumed by the Commissioner of Police.
The situation, needless to say, demands a full-scale criminal investigation, with all the alleged beaters being suspended from the force until a court of law decides the matter. The University and the community will be watching the
District Attorney’s investigation with great interest and great
concern for the execution of justice. Which doesn’t mean a
cover-up of a cover-up.

The questions ran along the lines of “What do
to do about re-establishing law and
order?” The replies were predictable examples of
tired campaign rhetoric. They were so well measured that even the pauses for reflection seemed to
have been programmed.

In the meantime, Hubert Humphrey has finally
begun climbing in the polls. He is even beginning
to sound like a statesman and less like a frightened
politician. In a speech last week in New York’s Herald Square, Humphrey managed to quiet a large
band of protestors, lie made it abundantly clear
that he was the only candidate who had a measure
of sympathy for their views. Humphrey is finally
forcing the nation to consider the alternatives. He
has faith in the miracle of 1948.

George Wallace, is slipping in the home stretch.
The nation's brief flirtation with him is evidently
drawing to a close. The monotony of his addresses
is too much to bear for even his staunchest supThe

I am sorry that I must write to you under such
circumstances. I have been living in the United
States since 1952 and consider it my homeland. Now
1 am forced to leave the country or spend five years
in prison because I do not want to kill anyone. It is
most unfortunate that this country has taken the
stand where it must actively go out and destroy another country on some nebulous pretext. It is also
most unfortunate,that America is becoming dangerous for people of -sensitive natures and who love.
The situation is such that it is impossible for me
to live in America anymore.
I have given this matter much thought and have
tried every legal method that is available to try to
find a solution to the problem. There is none. It has
become necessary for me to leave my family, my
friends and all the things that I have known and
that make life worthwhile. Rather than be forced
into a life of immorality, supporting the murder in
Vietnam and the racist policy of the American people, I am going into voluntary exile. This was a
terribly hard decision to make’ but it had to be
made.

With great sadness and pain, I must say goodbye to a country that has poisoned itself and is
slowly poisoning the rest of the world with its cancerous hate. I do not see any possibility of change
in the near future. The American politicians have
become perverted to such an extent that when they
are told right to their faces that their policies are
disliked, they can only see a Communist .talking to
them.
One fact that is inescapable is that Americans
approve of America’s actions by a vast majority.
Until the tenets that are verbalized by Americans
are lived, there is no hope. I have given up the
hypocrisy of being an American. It means nothing!

Friday afternoon, I had the privilege of moderating a debate here among supporters of the Presidential candidates. It was interesting to note that
the forum moved quickly from the relative merits
of the candidates to questions of ideology.

to discuss is the relative -merits of the Madison

The gentlemen supporting Richard Nixon disavowed the forum from the start. They complained
that they didn't want their candidate's name dragged in the mud. Instead of remaining to learn if
their fears were justified, they departed, leaving a
legacy of three mud pies.
This was a stupid and abominable gesture. The
people responsible are another example of the arrogant. self-righteous fools who have made this
a very sick society. Their clumsy attempt at dramatics only emphasizes the shallowness of their
thought processes.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;

Vol. 19, No. 13

—Pablo

A show of I.D. cards signifies an approval of an amendment to the Open Campus resolution.

Polity defers action on fees
cuss it.”

by Rod Gere

-

Spectrum Stall Reporter

A meeting of the student polity Wednesday produced extensive debate on the issues of athletic fees and open campus, after which the body decided to table resolutions on both measures.
The Polity, varying in size from 70 to
200 students, did endorse a statement condemning white racism in State University
institutions. Student Association President
Richard Schwab introduced the resolution
which was drawn up by State University
centers represented at this summer’s National Student Association Congress.
Bill Austin, president of the Black Stu-

dent Association, criticized the resolution

as laying too much blame on the Admin-

istration. “Students,” he said, “also perpetuate racism at this University. White
racism on this campus should be studied.
We should take a look at the fraternities,
the cliques, the polity board sitting before
us.”

Fred Fidel, assistant to Public Affairs
Coordinator Fred Hollander, moved to delete the section of the resolution alleging
that black students at SUNY institutions
are forced to accept white middle class
values or fail. Calling the provision “too
vague and bombastic,” he added that “it
polarizes the issues.”

Polarized issue

"The problem is that it already is polarized,” replied Mr. Austin. “This is the
issue and nobody dares to say it. If they
can’t polarize the issue, how can they dis-

p

.

Contemplation
t

,

Mr. Fidel then withdrew his motion,
stating that it was merely “a policy move”
so the resolution would be more effective.
“I didn’t intend that there should be any
moral affront.”
The resolution carried by a large margin and an amendment by Mr. Austin
broadening the resolution’s indictment of
SUNY’s white racism to include the members of the university community as well
as the institutions themselves was accepted.

A1 Brownstein, a graduate student, announced the formation of a committee to
study institutionalized racism on campus.
He said the first general meeting was held
in room 205 Norton Hall at 2 p.m. Monday. Mr. Brownstein stressed that all
points of view would be welcome. “There’s
lots of homework we have to do. We’d
like to see what other groups have to
offer.”

Athletic question

A recent statement by Albany complicated the issue of athletic fees. According
to the statement, intramurals at the University will no longer be funded by the
state. This development seemed to imply
that revenue for intramural athletics will
have to come from student fees.
New Student Affairs Coordinator Nancy
Coleman proposed that a fee of $12.50 per
student be assessed and that this money
be allocated by the joint faculty-student
committee on athletics.
“Speed” Powrie, a leader in the local

Black Student Association leader Bill Auatin ruminates over a discussion concerning
campus

racism.

SDS chapter, warned against setting a fee
before the actual athletic expenses have
been determined. He said: “If the money’s
there, it will go for football and basketball
teams. I move that we table this question
until it’s decided how much money is actually needed.”
Objections were raised on the grounds
that a delay would make it impossible
for the fee to be collected second semester. “I spoke to the bursar,” said Richard
Baumg£rten, “and I was told that if a decision on the fee was reached immediately,
they would not be able to set up collection
procedures by next semester,”
Mr. Schwab asserted that decisions by
the students did not depend on the Bursar. “The Student Association can set up
the necessary machinery to assess student
fees if we have to.”
He assured those present that “we can
collect and enforce any decision we make
regarding fees.”
The fee issue was then tabled by a narrow margin.
A resolution by Miss Coleman attempting to define and implement an open campus policy provoked considerable debate.
She defended her motion saying that at
present there was no such statement by

students.
“If we’re going to have an open campus,
we must say we want it,” she said. “It’s
the responsibility of the university community to protect people coming to this
campus, and those protesting against
them."

“It would be better for a represenative body to enforce it than the administration,” she added.
Mark Schneider argued that conditions
at this time make an open campus impossible. “Our university,” he asserted, “is
caught up in the military-industrial complex, It’s not in fact an open campus. It’s
interests are directly related to the war
in Vietnam.”
He concluded: “If we lived in an open
society I would support an open campus,
but the fact is we don’t.”
Several objections were raised to the
resolution’s wording. International Student Affairs Coordinator Paul Hollander
took note of the various objections and
moved to table the resolution so that it
could be revised accordingly. The Polity
accepted his motion.
Student Association Vice President
Tracy Cottone announced that the University will participate in NSA’s “TimeOut.” Instructors will be urged to cancel
classes on October 29 and 30.
The first day will consist of panel discussions, and the second will feature daylong workshops. Miss Cottone expressed
the hope that from these sessions legislative issues would appear before the Polity.
She urged all those interested in assisting
the “time-out” to contact NSA coordinator Ellen Price in the Student Association
office 225, Norton.
A motion that the Univerity not participate in NSA’s time-out was rejected by the
Polity.

In an effort to gain on-campus
support for their man, students
here representing the major Presidential candidates will hold a
debate at 2:30 p.m. today in the
Haas Lounge.

Students

for Humphrey, Stu-

dents for Nixon-Agnew, and the

Peace and Freedom Party will
each send one member to participate. A representative of Governor Wallace's views will also debate.

773 Niagara Falls Blvd.
just south of Sheridan

Each speaker will be given five
to ten minutes for an opening
statement followed by questions
from the other speakers. The
representatives then will answer
questions from the audience.
The idea of having a debate
was first proposed by Robert
Cohen of the Peace and Freedom
Party and some of the Humphrey
supporters.
Over the past few weeks politi-

cal arguments have been a very
noticeable activity at the tables in
Norton. The organizers feel that
a public debate would help bring
each candidate's views into focus.
Humphrey group proposed
having Richard Schwab as moderator. It was felt that he would
be an acceptable choice as he is
the popularly elected president of
the Student Association. The
Nixon group, however, vetoed this
choice.
Bradley Rudin, who will be
representing the Peace and Freedom Party hopes to show “the
failure of liberal democracy to
present meaningful choices to the

electorate.”
Stan Klein, one of the Humphrey support organizers, asserted that his group will “try to
show specific differences in every
stand between Humphrey and
Nixon,” The debater for the

Humphrey group will be either
Mr. Klein or David Steinwald.
Young Republicans member
Bruce Marsh, who will tentatively
speak for the Nixon supporters,
hoped the debate would bring
“the greater masses of apathetic
students into participation in na-

tional elections.”
Mr. Marsh said that he planned
to have his “arguments flown in
Before the debate, Steve Simmons, national coordinator for the
Student Coalition for Humphrey
and Muskie, will speak in the
Haas Lounge at 1:30 p.m.
The purpose of Mr. Simmons

talk will be to inform students
here of effective campaigning
techniques and to recruit students
to campaign.

The National Coalition is made

up of former McCarthy, Kennedy

and Rockefeller supporters.

The Specie

Sim// Rmportmr

Yesterday, as I walked through the
hall of Norton a small group had gathered
about someone discussing (arguing) the
issues of the day with persons behind
the Nixon table.
I do not criticize either party here, I
stood and talked with a friend and learned
that the argument had been in progress
for some time, but what really floored me
was when, as I was leaving, someone walking directly behind me said as much as
asked: “Is that asshole still at it?” Why
did he call him an asshole? If he disagreed
with the man why didn’t he get into the
discussion. If he didn’t like the fact that
the discussion was taking place, then why
is he in school?
I can only feel that this was an excellent
case of the words fitting the man.
The second event was reading a bound
volume of The Spectrum of 1963-64. In
this school year Jeremy Taylor, who later
became editor, first began to exercise his
intellect for The Spectrum. In one particular column he conducted a short quiz,
which was absolutely marvelous. Now,
just as the inventor once questioned the
students of his time on this campus, so

Arias continues

...

Arnulfo Arias, the deWASHINGTON
posed president of Panama who seized
—

control of his country’s embassy has
withdrawn his forces with the declaration: “The battle is won. It was purely
symbolic.”

The Panamanian said that for the remainder of his stay in Washington he will
conduct his business from a 9th floor
suite in the Watergate Hotel overlooking
the Potomac rather than the two-story
embassy on 29th Street, N.W.
During the night after Arias staged his
own takeover, supporters of the military
junta that overthrew Arias Oct. 11, slipped
into the embassy building and changed
all the locks, a few hours after they had
been changed by Arias.
But Arias, 67, insisted that the new

locks were not the reason he decided
against continuing his occupation. “I made
my point and there was no reason to go
any further,” he said.

The embassy appeared empty today. A
small sign on the front door said: “This
chancery will be closed today, compliments of the Embassy of Panama.”

said
that events tend to repeat themselves
in one form or another. This is a much
kinder way of saying that in many instances “man does not learn from his
mistakes, but only repeats them on a much
grander scale.”
Certainly the situation today in the Middle East would bear this out; Most people
are familiar with the Arab-Israeli problem
since the State of Israel was created in
1948.

However the history of the conflict
’•’tween the two peoples goes back to the
eventh century A.D., when Palestine was
onquered by the Arabs and formed an
iverwhelming majority of the population.
A small number of Jews whose ancestors had been in Palestine in Roman
times continued to live there for religious

reasons.

But in the 1880’s Jews from
Russia and Poland began to enter Palestine, largely as a reaction to anti-Semitism
in Eastern Europe.

from the electives that I have taken and
the outside reading that I have completed,
I find myself in a position where I have
some rather vague idea of a political and
social philosophy, but I really am not too
sure on what premises this philosophy is
based.
So for about a year now I have been
bending over backward in an effort to
formulate some premises which are functional in the present structure. My satisfaction was accomplished once again by
Jeremy Taylor, in his article of Oct. 4,
1963. In the article a number of premises
to live by are stated, and although I will
alter some, omit others and add some myself, the basic structure will be as printed
at that time.
As a practical premise, to the disappointment of philosophy majors and
with all due respect to that department,
I assume that I and every other person
exists, and that it is reasonable to believe
that living is better than being dead.
All men are not equal, but they have
a common genesis and a common end and
should be allowed to exercise their uniqueness within a structure of religious, economic and political freedom.
Men are essentially free. Even if a
man decides to do nothing or commit
suicide, ultimately, it is his own decision.
Logic is not a law of the universe; it
is a human effort to codify chaos.
God is not dead, because God never
existed, i.e,, any argument to prove his
existence is based on false premises.
There are no such things as human
rights; the rights that men have or should
have are the result of logical, intelligent
human interchange.
War is asinine.
There are only two ways to infuse
meaning into the human condition: creativity and love.
Boredom is as destructive as pain.
Nationalism is as outdated and dangerous as the black plague. Man must
realize that human communities are actualities (the result of man’s work), but in
reality, not a necessity and not necessarily
a commendable construct.
The sense of property is a cultural
value rather than part of human nature.
“Classical ‘certainty’ about anything
is impossible for the reasonable man, but
men must make the decisions on the
grounds of what they honestly believe to
be true. Only thus may a man be truly
responsible for his actions, for if he believes that certainty is a reasonable possibility, then his actions are made inevitable; and he may relinquish his sense of
responsibility to his zeal."

Do you know anything more about
“why you are the way you are” than you
did a week ago?
If you are in a position of answering
some or all of these questions with a “no,”
then maybe you don’t belong in a college
situation; either (1) because you know all
the answers already and are wasting your
time, or (2) because you are in no position
to find the answers because you haven’t
even formed the questions and again, are
wasting your time.

Sources in Yugoslavia have expressed
concern at growing Soviet influence among
the Arab nations in the last 16 months.

As a reaction to approximately 2.5
billion dollars worth of modern arms the
Soviet Union has poured into the Middle
East in this time period, the United States
has reciprocated the action on behalf of
Israel.

On Oct. 9, President Johnson announced

that the United States would begin negotiations with Israel on selling it advanced

supersonic jets. He felt that such steps

On Nov. 1 and 2, the Readers' Thaatra Workshop will prasant parformancas of "Undar Milk
Wood," a play for volcas by Dylan Thomas. Thara
will ba three parformancas in toto, in tha afternoon
and evening on Friday, and an evening performance
on Saturday. All will taka place in tha Dorothy
Haas Lounge of Norton Halt. Directing the play is
Frank Dwyer, a graduate student in tha English Department, who has previously directed the successful "Evening of Shakespeare" last year.
The Readers' Theatre Workshop is an offshoot
of the Student Theatre Guild, comprised of students interested in oral interpretation of predominantly dramatic and poetic works. In "Under Milk
Wood," the group has both drama and poetry of the
highest caliber with which to work. Each actor takes
many roles, varying from one line to long monologues and integrates these with the lines of the
others to form a lucid and beautiful unit. This ambitious undertaking involves not only changing
voices but also singing and development of character using, for the most part, only the face.
The performances, which are free, will take
place at 4:00 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. on Nov. 1, and at
8:30 p.m. on Nov. 2.

be more interesting to see what happens to the
percentage of eligible voters that decide to vote
than to see the results of the election.
Now if Pat Paulsen were on the ballot, I might
have moved mountains to get to vote. It is my
suspicion that a great many people who are very
sick of having any old Dick, Hubert and George
being nominated might have been strangely motivated if they knew that votes for the Stag Party
would have to be counted by law. (You can write
in almost anybody in California, but they only have
to count those who are officially recognized as
write-in candidates.)
There is one national political figure
besides
Paulsen
who seems to be conducting himself
very well. Senator McCarthy has definitely added at
least a touch of class to an otherwise thoroughly
tawdry election year. The morning paper here ran
a cartoon of a shirt-sleeved rolled up, along with
HHH manfully
his pants legs, Huck Finn style
trying to bail out a sadly-leaking, small boat
tabled the “Democratic Party.” This heroic figure
is addressing a figure lounging indolently in the
bow with a smirk on his face. The caption is
something like: “Did it ever occur to you that it
is your boat too?”
Which, apologies to all you Democrats, breaks
me up. As an interested and opinionated observer
it seems sort of impractical to get mad at somebody
who isn’t bailing when you dumped him over the
side several weeks back
even if you did start
to worry about it as soon as you did it. Especially
when there is a good chance that the poor cat what
got dumped is the best navigator you had.
One wonders, watching McCarthy, if this country
might not be far better off if a few more people
could manage to put personal belief and conscience
before party unity.
If this election does nothing' else, history may
see it as a body blow to the nominating conventions
In four years, perhaps the farces we have seen this
year can be used to really hurt that system. In New
York the climate might be very ripe for a binding,
(not some but) all delegate primary. Or would all
you folks out there in Newspaper Land be willing
to settle for a rerun in four years? Pray forgive me
while I go somewhere and be sick.

Actually, I am somewhat unsure of the proposition this just may be one of the dullest presidential
(looking into the future I see no reason for capitalizing it for at least another four years) campaigns
in recorded history. But I have discovered from
watching national political figures not to let uncertainty or ignorance bother me. I have little
contact with the outside world. Being a househusband is a demanding and full time occupation,

and what little free time the breadwinnerite allows
me is spent on the rocks above the Pacific. And it
is damned difficult to get a seagull to hold still
long enough to be polled.
My feeling is just one of those peculiar intuitional feelings that usually get me info trouble.
I have the strange notion that this year they should
keep the bars and liquor stores open and close the
fried chicken places. I mean Nov. 5 is going to be
a waste anyway
everybody might as well get
swacked before the results are in. You are going

you are voting this year? Congratulations, don’t s.ee

campus? How many black coaches? How much black literature
in the library?” shouted Booker
Banks to the crowd below. He informed them that while the percentage of blacks in the California population is 22%, the percentage of blacks at the University is .001%. “We tried to see
the Chancellor this morning, but
the Chancellor was busy. They
said ‘Come back later.’
”

Another black student explained: “Our aim is not to destroy
this building, our aim is to get
some justice.”

The crowd outside grew restless at the lack of progress in
the negotiations and the campus
policemen withdrew. Immediately
the attitude changed and a mood
of good feeling took over. Students 'brought food into the occupied building and the barricades were removed.
Some students opposed to the
take-over tried to' end it singlehandedly. One battered into the
hall and was driven back by a
fire extinguisher? The victim, an
anthropology graduate student,
said; “I feel that the University
is an autonimous organization. It
should be above the whims of any
activist group. This blockade is
analogous to Ronald Reagan’s
meddling in the University’s affairs. Now Reagan will probably
be here within 24 hours to tell us
how terrible the University is."
He thought the administration
should have evicted the protestors at once and he said of the
demands of the BSU: “Their
gripes are petty. There’s no racism on this campus. Nothing
overt anyway.”
An organization called "Free
Campus” is forming to counteract the influence of what it calls
“irresponsible freaks.” They will
protest white grievances.
One history professor has told
his class that he will fail anyone
in his class involved in the radical movement.
The small number of radicals
have stood up to the school tj
defend the action. One member
of the BSU declared: “It’s very
beautiful to see white activism,
especially on a conservative, noncommitted campus like this one.”

into awareness of the issue, "I
don’t feel that any other attempt
on our part would have had the
same effect,” one member of the
BSU explained.
The students were admittedly
nervous—about the police, about
the students who would oppose
them, about being suspended.
Twelve of them are under “suspended suspension” at this time.
Everyone is “nervous” about
the Regents’ reaction to the incident. Governor Reagan and Assembly Speaker Unruh, representing both conservative and liberal,
Republican and Democratic factions of the California power
structure, have labeled the action
“irresponsible.”
Regents have already condemned the invitation to Eldridge
Cleaver to speak at Santa Barbara. Cleaver is under a ban to
lecture at California schools, imposed by State Superintendent of

Education and senatorial candidate Max Rafferty.
And members of the Santa Barbara community, in alliance with
conservative white students, have
organized a group known as
“Friends of ROTC” to oppose
student efforts to eliminate the
military program on campus.

Continuing American Revolution:
Equal Political and Economic Opportunities for the Negro.” The
course will survey the history of
the black man in America, the liabilities of poverty and other
problems, and probable programs
of reform.
The same course, “Issues and
Ideologies,” as taught by Dr.
Vaughn Blankenship, will concentrate on the genesis of bureaucracy. In particular, it will
look at the impact of science and

technology on the organization of
political life.
"Policies A b r o a d,” Political
Science 113, will be taught by
Prof. Stuart Edwards, This course
will cover England, France and
Yugoslavia in particular. Special
attention will be paid to the class
nature of British politics, the
French centralized state and student revolts there, and the Yugoslavian experiment with a decentralized planned economy.

Peelle defends higher fee
A heated meeting between the
Student Coordinating Council and
Director of Athletics James Peelle
preceded the Polity meeting Wednesday.
The issue of a $5,50 mandatory
athletic fee was the focus of the
meeting, held to work out differences between the Athletic Department and t h e Coordinating
Council over the size of the fee
before the issue was brought up
at the Polity meeting,
“It should be left at $12.50,”
Mr. Peelle began. “When we became a state institution, the slate
said the legislature would give
them $1.5 million a year for physical education and athletics. This
hasn’t come about and we are
faced with a financial problem.
“When we had the compulsory
fee in ’66-’67 we took in almost
$280,000. When we took in only
$100,000 this semester, we had a
deficit of $187,000 and this must
be made up in some form. This
$12.50 fee is what we’ve always
operated on and we’re going to
be thousands of dollars short despite this fee.”

Budget deficit
Richard Schwab, president of
the Student Association, answered: “I think we should concentrate on getting the money
from the state legislature. I feel
that the students are being raped
if they have to pay more than
$100,000 a yea t.
“I called Dr. Regan yesterday.
He’s the head of thet budget for
the whole University, He said
that the deficit would be carried
over to next year and then could
possibly be acted upon by the
legislature. Therefore whether the
deficit is $100,000 or $200,000, the
athletic program is not going to

All the information I’ve gotten
from everyone, with the exception
of Mr. Peelle, has led me to believe this fee is adequate. I feel
we’re cheating the students and
misrepresenting the situation if
we have to ask for more than

The coordinators disapproved of
this suggestion because students,
not alumni, pay the fee, and
should therefore have control
over them.
Jerry Brodt, assistant to the
president of the Student Association, commented that the crux of
the problem is that students were
paying these huge sums of money
and they therefore would like to
have access to the gymnasium for
recreational purposes. Mr. Peelle
said this was impossible because
the facilities were inadequate for
22,000 students.

$5.50.”

Members of the Council then
cited the lack of communication
between the Athletic Department
and the students as the major
cause of their wide divergence of
opinion relating to athletics.

Different views
“You’re abandoning the wishes
mass of students for the
benefit of a few who are involved
in inter-collegiate athletics," Mr.
Brodt countered. "I feel that the
students of this University think
football should not have top priority. Their main gripe is that
not all the money should go into

WHY DID 13WOMEN
OPEN THEIR DOORS
TO THE BOSTON
STRANGLER...
WILLINGLY?

Addressing students in the
Haas Lounge, Dan Rosenshine,
New York State chairman of the
Young Socialist Alliance, discussed “From Campus Revolt to
Socialist Revolution.”

Mr. Rosenshine described the
influence on society of campus
{revolts. Recalling
an incident
last April in which a reported
2000 high school students went
on strike in protest of the Vietnam war, Mr. Rosenshine said
action of this nature was the result of similar protests originating on college campuses all over
the world. Likewise, he said, uprisings among black high school
students also represented the
effect that anti-discriminatory
movements on American campuses have had.

Youth take action
Referring to the international
influence of campus demonstrations, Mr. Rosenshine said that
young people around the world
are being inspired to take action
as a result of witnessing American activism. Political figures,
such as Malcolm X, are being

idolized for their aspiration to

speak out against the system,
he noted. Similarly, student control of university facilities has

induced students of other nations
to take action against administrative inefficiencies, he claimed.
Concerning activism in Vietnam, Mr. Rosenshine referred to
the Tet Offensive which he termed a youth-oriented incident in
January of this year in which

thousands of Vietnamese men attacked United States soldiers in
Saigon. Actions such as this, he
said, as well as student rebellion
because of Communist aggression which recently took place
in Czechoslovakia, demonstrated
the overwhelming rejection of
the “establishment” being felt
by reactionary forces around the
world. Citing the student riots
which took place in France this
year, Mr. Rosenshine pointed out
the sympathy received by the
students from many French citizens, again exemplifying the infiltration of recalcitrant ideas into society.

Revolution presumable
Concerning social change in the

Describing it as “time out to

like a “huge forum” to discuss
University changes. Discussions
will be held from 10 a.m. until

“Any attempt to change conditions, however,” he said, “meets
concerted opposition.”

The Young Socialist Alliance,
which is affiliated with the Socialist Workers Party, is supporting
the campaign of trade unionist
Fred Halstead for President. Mr.
Halstead, who advocates the immediate withdrawal of all U.S.
troops from Vietnam, is on the
ballot in 20 states along with
Vice Presidential nominee Paul
Boutelle.
The Young Socialist Alliance
will sponsor two conventions
later this year. The purpose of
these wili be to discuss prominest
controversial topics such as the
anti-war movement, G.I. rights in
the fight against the war and
black political power and action.

lems they can fight for."
More than 1600 universities and
colleges have been invited by
NSA to participate. Miss Price believes that the large number gives
“more strength and a feeling of
unity.”

Two questions which Miss Price
said will be posed are:
•

sity?’

”

How can we “bring our Uni
versity to the 20th century?”
•

Faculty members have been
asked to cancel classes to enable
students to participate. A letter
to faculty members reads: “In order to have full student participation, we would like classes canceled or class time devoted to the
discussion of State University of
Buffalo reform. If neither of these
possibilities are feasible, we
would appreciate an announcement made in class urging students to participate in “Time
Out.”

'Feeling of unity'
Indicating that the purpose of
Time Out Day is “to constructively rally the students on campuses,” Miss Price said that people
will get together “so they can
see they all have common prob-

Mr. Powell states: “The critical
need for such a Day springs from
our bitter experiences over the
past 12 months. Although students have won some significant
victories on campuses and in the
political system of the nation,
those victories, however significant, hardly overshadow the enormity of the task we still
face ...”
“On the campus, students are
still effectively excluded from
any direct role in policy-making
in those areas that directly affect them, from curriculum to social rules to university complicity
with the war in Vietnam. Despite
our demands to be treated maturely and with dignity, we continue to enjoy second-class status
in the educational community.”

A series of workshops will be
conducted Wednesday from 10
a.m. until 5 p.m. to follow up on
the issues presented during Time
Out Day. Miss Price described it
as a “spin off” for students with
common grievances to meet and

act on them.

�Opportunity offered
for dental research
The American Dental Association and the American Association of Rental Schools is sponsoring a program in dental research
for college students. The program is geared toward students

It is not designed for individuals who have already expressed
interest in the dental profession,
although they may be considered

The objectives of the program
include the selection of promising college science students for
dental research, the supplementation of the education and training of selected students in the
environment of dental research
laboratories and the providing of
an appreciation of the problems
in dental research for those students who eventually chose other
areas of science for a career.

The program is open to any
pre-baccalaureate student who is
a citizen of the United States and
who will not receive his degree
prior to December of the year in
which he wishes to participate in

the program.

Participants

in

the

10-week

summer program will conduct
research in the laboratory of a

scientist.
The research may involve a project in
which the student is interested
or a current project in the laboratory of the host scientist. The
philosophy of the program is to
custom-tailor the research project

petence of each individual as
much as possible. Seminars and
lectures may be attended during
the course of study, but no formal
courses for credit may be taken.
Also the research facilities will
be located throughout the United

Each participant will receive a
stipend of $700 plus any necessary traveling expenses. Thirtyfive students will be accepted for
the 1969 program and fifteen
will be designated as alternates.

Mexican -American
Students speak out
Special to The Spectrum

Mexican-American students on
California campuses are organizing and speaking out.
At the University of Santa
Clara, a group known as United
Mexican-American Students has
been formed. UMAS is entering
its second year with a membership of 50.
The concept of La Nueva Raza
the new race
is the fostering
of an image to counteract the old
stereotype of the lazy, stupid
Mexican.
—

—

Educational progrems will focus on the heritage of the Mexi-

cans: The Aztec civilization and

the pioneers who settled the
American West and lost to the

invading Anglo-Saxons. UMAS
will work with the Los Angeles

group, Mexican-American Political Organization, to organize boycotts of products which slander
Mexican-Americans in their advertising.

Another facet of the program
will be to help high school students reach college. Although
Mexican-Americans make up 12%
of California’s population, they
are only one-half of a percent of
the state's university system. The
drop-out rate for them in Los
Angeles high schools is over 50%,
a result of the language barrier,
the lack of cultural pride, the
poverty of the barrio and the
inadequacies of guidance counsel-

in San Jose, the campus paper
headlines: “Chicanes Support Students in Mexico City.”

San Jose rally
At San Jose State, the Mexican-

American Student Confederation
is more militant. MASC recently
held a rally to support the student insurrectionists in Mexico
City, and their leader, Humberto
Garza, told the group: “You talk
about communists in Vietnam, but
you don’t give a shit about your
neighbor,”
A vigil was staged at the Mexican consulate in San Francisco.
The bay area’s black student organizations supported the action,
and one member, Bill Calhoun,
said: “There is no possible way
that the position taken by black
athletes at the Olympic games
can be justified. They have put
themselves above the masses for
some honky gold medal that some
cracker will give them for running. There is no honor in any
gold medals we win.”
Garza added; “Every athlete
who gets a gold medal should
know that 10,000 babies die every
year because they don’t have
enough milk.”

�Concert review

Havens and Buffy
by

Staff

Reporter

With his nose on strike, Richie Havens wasn’t picking
and singing in his usual phenomenal form. But Buffy SainteMarie came across sensitively and sincerely at the Fall Weekend Concert Sunday evening.

A strong, virile performer,
Richie Havens apologized to
the audience for having a
cold. He said: “I feel sort of
like an old television set—-on
the blink.”

The words of Havens’ songs are
something to be listened to. They
form stunning pictures and images. In “Ain’t Nothing But A
Dream,” he describes the “rising
smell of fresh cut grass” in contrast with the “pollution smell of
cities’ gas.” These images of nature apd man attack the senses
in a mental barrage.

With his head hanging down,
Havens intensely watched his fingers weave in and out of guitar
strings. Open E-tuning enables
him to manipulate chords on his
guitar not possible with standard

Shaker, Life,” Havens drove the
audience into clapping. On this
number, he called out for “life
eternal,” and his .side-man Paul
Williams answered on some fine
12-string guitar work.

tuning.

Cold or no cold, Havens was
puttting out a fine effort on his
instrument. Working his guitar
to its limit, he broke two strings
on a wild flourish of cadenzas.

Soldier."

times though, his voice didn’t
match the intense rhythm of his
guitar—it seemed to get lost in
the beat.

Opening with “High Flying
Bird,” his voice didn’t seem as
abrasive and gravelly as when
he sang in Central Park this summer. Also the audience response
to his sing-along requests on “I’ll
Get By,” were very poor. In the
open area of Central Park, people
were much more enthusiastic in
their clapping and singing. The
apathy was due perhaps to the
more formal atmosphere of Kleinhans Music Hall.

While replacing the broken
strings, Havens turned the au
dience off somewhat by unrelated
ramblings on the meanings of
words. He looked like a little boy
with his first guitar as he fooled
with the thing.

ple.

She told the audience of a
group of Indian fishermen in
Washington who are being arrested for fishing in waters they
had donated to the state.

Broken treaties
“These people had

a treaty with
the government guaranteeing
them fishing rights,” she said
“This is their livelihood—they
their families with the fish
they catch.”

Her feelings for these fisher
men were so strong, she had tc
express them to the audience in
song. This musical medium is her
means of letting America know
of the injustices thrust upon the
Indian people.

A Cree Indian, Buffy stands
proud and tall and strong as she
sings her message. Her voice
wrought with quivering emotion,
she warbled “Now that the But
falo’s Gone.”

In this song, the words emerged
from her throat sadly inflecting
the tragedy of a treaty broken by
the white man over Indian land
at Kinzua Dam, With Buffy
Sainte-Marie, when her people
suffer, she suffers with them in
song.

And then Buffy
After a too-long short intermission, a beautiful person took the
stage

With a broad smile, thick black
hair and shining dark eyes, Buffy
Sainte-Marie blessed the audience
with song. Clad in a white-fronted
mini-dress with wide kimono
sleeves and a low square neckline, she accompanied her songs
with guitar and mouthbow.
Like an innocent Indian maid,
she started with a little country
and western ditty. “I Want to be
a Country Girl” she churtled with
her way down in the valley voice,
and her big eyes began a-sparkling.

:

She launched another tirade
against the “boogeyman system,”

as she sang of children being

poisoned by the mass media and
of their parents not really think
ing about the images being form-

ed in young minds.

Buffy's own
Doing “Universal Soldier,” Buffy said that the individual man
who uses his body as a weapon
in war is the only one that can

end conflict. “It’s up to him and
you and me,” was the way she
put it in this song of her own

composition.

�Film review

‘Heart Is a Lonely
Alan Arkin is both star and
unity in this very involved film
of the loneliness of a deaf-mute
in a southern town. Arkin’s acting

is praiseworthy in his mastery of
the deaf-mute speech. Carson MeCuller’s book has been transformed into a film particularly
sensitive to human frailty.
the deaf-mute,
moved into Jefferson to live near
his committed ward Spiro, another deaf-mute whose child-like
activities get him into trouble.
Chuck McCann is magnificent as
the ward.

Mr.

Singer,

Mr. Singer involved himself in
other people’s lives, trying to
form friendships despite his handicap, but somehow he could never
fully communicate his needs.
When Spiro, his only true friend,
died he had nothing to live for.
Mick, played by neophyte Sandra Locke, was the daughter of
an invalid in a wheel chair, who
rented a room to Singer. The
part showed the autobiographical
growth of Carson from a tom-boy

into a teen-ager. Somehow it
verged on the bland and melodramatic side of a teen-ager’s life,
but then again one must remember that the film is somewhat
anachronistic.
Mick’s attitude toward Singer
indicated a growth in character.
The point when she felt a relationship between herself, an in-

trovert by condition,
poignant.

was supurbly

Alienation from integrity
Besides Mr. Singer’s problems
were the problems of a black
doctor, who although obviously
hating white people, did nothing
to uplift his own people. He was
a case of frustration and unsolved conflicts. The tragic occurence between the doctor and
his daughter could only be caused
by the alienation of man from
his integrity. The daughter married a poor black man, who possessed a warmth that the doctor
never gave to his daughter.

doctor would not perjure himself
to save his son-in-law, who stab-

bed a white man during a scuffle
at an amusement park. He was
sent to prison where he was
cruelly chained after an escape
attempt and lost his leg after
developing gangrene.
It was evident that the doctor
was actually punishing his daugh-

ter for wanting to be black. Her
rebellion was a positive motion,
which her father was too misled
and emotionless to comprehend.
It is a credit to Alan Arkin’s
versatility that he was able to
make a complete character
change from his role as a sadist
persecuting a blind woman in
“Wait Until Dark.”

�Television review

‘Laugh-In’
by A1 Dragone
Spectrum

Stef/ Reporter

It all began more than 30 years
ago when two former burlesque
comics named Olsen and Johnson
strung together a series of clever
vaudeville routines to form a
fantastically successful Broadway
revue called “Hellzapoppin.”
The Olsen and Johnson form of
comedy was predicated basically
on surprise and juxtaposition.
Theatergoers frequently found
themselves seated over burning
wood stoves. Concluding an alluring belly dance, a comely
young Arabian each evening removed her veil to reveal a banana shaped nose and whiskers.

In the movie version, elevator
passengers were confronted by
Olsen and Johnson driving a Ford
convertible with a monkey in the
back seat down a crowded corridor.
Until September, 1967, when
.Rowan and Martin presented their
first “Laugh-In,” few, except Steve
Allen and Ernie Kovacs, were able
to recapture the aura of unmitigated insanity that “Hellzapoppin” conveyed.
Like its predecessor, “LaughIn” is essentially a cavalcade of
vaguely related blackouts. Again
a good deal of the humor is de-

rived

from deviation from the
expected, from juxtaposition and
from ' irreverence toward just
about everything.
A typical five minute sequence
may include Lena Horne stand-

ing by an imposing grand piano
amidst a lavish set. It is announced that she will sing. The
camera moves in and she says:
“My girdle is killing me!”
Cut to a cameo with no less
than Greer Garson saying, “If
Greer Garson married Johnny
Carson, she would be Greer Garson Carson. How about that all
you Mrs. Miniver fans?”.
Cut to Arte Johnson, a little
man with a rubber face, replete
in a midi-length Nazi coat and SS
helmet, looking up at Bob Hope
and saying with a thick accent,
“I waited for you every Christmas!”

Cut to Goldie Hawn, an innocent pixie who might have
come from the chorus line in
never-never land, who challenges
the audience to “Look that up in
your Funk and Wagnalls.”

songs to detergents

Gypsy Rose Lee. The orchestra
strikes a few sleazy bars of “Let
Me Entertain You” and she
bumps and grinds her under-endowed form accordingly. The incensed audience pelts her with
fruit and vegetables. Finally she
screams: “Stop, stop 1 can’t stand
it any more, I can’t stand it!” A
patron shouts: “What’s a matta,
lady?” She retorts, “Did you hear
that drummer? Did you hear
him?”
Cut to Van Johnson who says
“You bet your sweet bippy!”
The show moves swiftly and
with a measure of humor.

Bet your bippy
This mod version of vaudevillian blackouts is not, however,
without its serious flaws. For a
production which utilizes 14 writers, 100 tape cuts and each week
consumes 225 pages of script,
clearly a majority of the show is
just not funny. It often relies on
a surfeit of azure

to use “blue”
material.
No one will tell exactly what a
“bippy” is but when Dick Martin
says, “you bet your sweet bippy”
with a lecherous glint in his eye
and punctuates it with a masculine cackle, while Liberace giggles that he bet his and lost it,
it is clearly time for the Methodists to switch to “Gunsmoke,”
even with Kitty’s low cut dresses.
The play on the sound of “f” is
not particularly amusing. As

many people as possible are
urged to say “Funk and Wagnalls” in the hope that the audience will hope that someone will
mispronounce it thereby generating a thrill of naughtiness
among the viewers. The same is
true for the alliterative “Flying
Fickle Finger of Fate” award.
Mispronunciation will not pass
the censors. They should not
taunt the thrill-seeking viewer
unless they intend to really say

it.

Leonda to perform Saturday
at reopening of Coffeehouse
Devotees of two of the great
American past times, gobd coffee
and quality musical entertainment, will be catered to when
the UUAB Coffee House reopens
this weekend.
The Coffee House will find its
home in the Allenhurst Bus
Lounge in the basement of Goodyear.

To open the coffee season, the
House will present Leonda, a

Cherokee Indian and winner of
the female category of the Boston area folk poll. Tom Rush won
the male category.
She will be playing this Friday
and Saturday evenings from 8:30

served.
Chairman of the House, Brian
Lappin, has announced a paintin to help create a more coffee

The Joint College Commission,
student-faculty committee at
Columbia University, has issued
a report recommending a wide
range of reforms to deal with the
academic situation that was one
reason for the student revolt last
a

spring.

A Student Bill of Rights was
proposed, “based upon a demarcation between the domain of personal independence and matters
of personal moral behavior on
the one hand, and recognition of
social responsibility for the
achievement of the high academic
aims of the College on the other.”
Rights include:
A student should be judged
by his professors on the basis of
class performance only;
Academic and disciplinary
records should be kept in confidence;
•

No record of political ac
tivities should be kept;
•

Students should have the
right to form any organization
they choose which is nondiscriminatory in membership;
•

The show is not particularly
better for the presence of those
two rather mediocre comics.
Whatever is on the show that is
funny
and that is not much
is produced by the 14 Emmy
Award winning writers. Indeed,
the name of the show should
hereafter be changed to Rowan
and Martin’s “Smile In.”

•

Students charged with
breaches of university law should
have the rights of due process of

•

The report stated; “The University should not assume the
role of arbiter or enforcer of the

morals of its students.”

Curriculum reforms
Other reforms suggested dealt
with the curriculum—revision of
general requirements, establishment of an executive board of
the college faculty, encouragement of independent study, a BABS program ranging from four
to six years, departmental elections for the student academic
affairs committee, institution of
more seminars and student participation in admissions policy

making.

The Executive Faculty Commit-

tee has called for elected student representatives to serve on
seven interim committees to deal

with discipline, the selection of
Columbia’s next president and
the future of Naval ROTC. A poll
of student opinion on these issues will be taken. The purpose
of the committees is to issue reports and recommendations.
Hearings are under way conducted by the committee and
other groups such as the moderate Students for a Restructured

students, mostly members or students affiliated with SDS, will receive letters of discipline although twice that number were
actually involved in the protest.
The University is delaying ostensibly to gather evidence, but
one official admitted that the intention is to wait until the cam-

activity.

Leader quits
Tomec Smith was president of
the Student Council last year
and a vocal supporter of the
strike, resigned from his student
government post last year in protest. He called student government at Columbia “a crock of
shit” in the campus newspaper.
He wrote: “The administration
loves CUSC because it attracts
‘moderate, respectable’ students
who will never do anything to
threaten their power. The administrative mind is happy to allow
the student ‘government’ to involve itself in Mickey Mouse regulatory shit and trivial reforms
such as the bookstore rebate as
long as it doesn’t turn to fundamentals.”
Tomec Smith opposes the proposal of the faculty project on
University structure, a Universitywide assembly plus ten student
seats in the 92-man University
senate. He believes that the only
reason the faculty can now assert itself, after years of being
dominated by the administration,
is because of the student rebellion.

Thus the faculty will have to
offer more than tokenism if it
wants the student support it
needs to assume power. He cited
the
as the Student Council as the
main reason for the fabled “student apathy.”

Scientology: Road to reason?
Editor’s note.
The Church of Scientology, though 16 years old, just recently made its
Buffalo appearance on Kenmore Ave. Spectrum reporter Jay Schreiber,
ever in search of the “state of clear," went to see what it was all about.

by Jay Schreiber
Spectrum

Staff

Reporter

A piece of tomato had fallen on the wax paper spread
on the desk. “You know, I love these subs because they agree
with me. We have a high affinity for each other, and I get
great enjoyment from eating them.”
With one hand she was
grasping the remaining half
of a $.95 ham hero, with
everything. She dropped the
errant tomato in her mouth,
her tongue explored her lips
for little spots of mayonnaise
and she smiled; “It’s just like
my teaching. I enjoy teaching,
to work with youngsters. It
is what I am good at. I take
pleasure in knowing I am
damn good at it.”
Good, positive thoughts from

way down inside. Delivered

smoothly without self-conscious
struggling, they just flow from
her, a 21-year-old tap of charming confidence. “All the credit’s
to Scientology,” says Joan Dempsey.

For four years she majored in
English at Buffalo State and
“Man, I was unhappy. I was getting A’s, but it didn’t mean anything.”

Better communication
She paused and looked around

We were sitting in a modest,
three room office on Kenmore
Ave., the Scientology center of
greater Buffalo.
“Scientology was the bridge. I
took a communications course.
After two nights, I never felt better. You’re not around people
putting you down. I was learning
principles that would apply to my
life. I began communicating with
my students like I hadn’t been
able to before. Applying all these
theories I learned made me keep
feeling better.” And she smiled,
steady and assured.

It was in 1952
bard founded the Church of Scientology. According to various biographical sketches, he had travelled widely in the Far East as
that L, Ron Hub-

a youth, becoming intensely curious about the nature and destiny
of man. After World War II, Hubbard wrote science fiction and

westerns until, in his own words,

he turned his thoughts “towards
the heaitlv ability and intelligence of people.”
Scientology, to Hubbard, was
the culmination of 50,000 years of
the thoughts of man, the “exact
science” by which a person can
live, work and become better.

But you must follow the rules.
Hubbard and his offspring of
Scientologists are completely apolitical in their work. Evolutionary,
not revolutionary in outlook, they
stand for the improvement of
what we have. “Forget the firds
of ideology and seek reason” is

the way founder Hubbard puts
it.

Uncle Sam opposed

“state of clear,”

Supergirl scientologist
It had become extremely warm
in the office. Sweating, and with
a slight ache in the head, my
senses and thoughts were being
dulled. She noticed and turned
down the thermostat. In her blue
wool jumper Miss Dempsey was
an ego-threatening supergirl.

She continued: “You see the
scientologist won’t save his own
problems. We don’t want depend
ency. The scientologist can see
the misunderstanding in a person’s application, see where the
problem is. The person considers
something to be a problem, he’ll
break that consideration, the principles he learns will show him the
way.”
Though still considered a student, Miss Dempsey now teaches
one of the education courses at
the center which is run by John
and Peter Imburgia. Introduction
to those interested is a personality test and a free communications course. After two or three
classes, it would be up to the individual which course to go on
to—ability, study, or education.

tapes, Hubbard lectures and Hubbard books. The scientologist
serves as a supervisor, and it is
the sole privilege of the student
to apply the principles he’s learned to his life and look for predicted results. If they appear,
then the scientologists claim he
is feeling better with a greater
zest for living.

No questions please
In a peculiar manner, people
in scientology are skeptical, almost intolerant of outside inquiry
that does not quickly appear favorable. Their explanations are
often a heavy bombardment of
abstract terms, and it takes redundancy in questioning to get
some specific description of those
“principles.”

One of the most vital of these
principles is entitled “ARC." “A”
is your affinity or willingness to
let somebody share the same

space with anotehr person; “R” is

reality, something two people can
agree on; “C” is communication.

Miss Dempsey tried hard to explain: “You make a triangle, A
and R are the first two vertexes.
Bring either of them down in
level and down goes the triangle
and the third and most important vertex, ‘C or communication.
To make the triangle go up, you
enter on one vertex and raise
up the other two. This will increase ‘C,’ your level of communication,"

The explanation was being filtered out by soft dentist-waitingroom music—the Brass Quartet
doing "Hey Jude.” I mentioned
that I couldn’t quite see making
clay diagrams of interpersonal relationships. Miss Dempsey suggested 1 take one of Mr. Hubbard’s pamphlets. I said fine.
"That'll be $1.25." I left with

my pamphlet and not enough
money to buy myself lunch.

All the data used in the courses

Since his discovery 16 years
ago, Hubbard has written and rewritten under about 20 different
covers, the principles that a man
must seek and apply if he is to
live a free and self-determined
life. Numerous professional psychologists have labeled Scientology amateurish and dangerously
meddling with serious mental
problems. The U.S. government
has accused Scientology of falsely
promising a cure of neuroses, psychoses and schizophrenia. Britain’s Health Minister has called
it “socially harmful, a potential
menace to the personality.”

In the best tradition of whose
baseball arguments are better,
Scientology people come back
with a fact-filled defense. Their
claim is tens of thousands of case
histories that show Scientology
is no hex, but as valid as physics.
In any case, it is easier to accept the Scientologist’s claim that

only their system truly improves

human relations and character,
than to understand why.

There is a gradient step by step
approach that is needed for insight and benefit from Scientology. It takes time (at least a year
of dedicated sludy) and a lot of
money ($5000 is a good estimate)

comes straight from L. Ron Hub-

bard. The student gets the necessary information from Hubbard

The Spectrum aponaora Action Line, a weekly reader service column. Through Action
Lina, individual students can get answers to puasling questions, find out where and why
University decisions are made, and get action when change is needed.
Just dial 831-5000 lor individual attention. The Office of Student Affairs and
Services will investigate all questions, all complaints, and answer them individually.
Action Line will include questions and replies of general interest which appear to be
pertinent to the student body. The name of the individual originating the inquiry is
kept confidential under all circumstances.

Q.: It it almost impossible to get an outside telephone line in
the residence halls. Why is this? And, can it be corrected?

A.: The increased population in the residence halls this year
created a heavy overload upon the already taxed telephone lines.
This was verified by the telephone company who was called in
after we received your inquiry and the Office of Planning and Development immediately approved increased telephone service for
the residence halls. Engineering for six additional lines is now under
way and will be completed within thirty days.

weekend and Monday and Tuesday in the Conference Theater
and Tower Private Dining Room.
Winner of an Academy Award
for best short feature in 1967, this
dramatic and frightening “documentary was filmed in Kent, England, with a cast composed of locally-recruited amateurs. Much of
the film was shot with a handheld camera of the type used in
newsreel assignment. But all the
film was specially shot—no library footage was used.

The applause was enthusiastic.
Written and directed by Peter
Watkins, the London Observer
said of the film: “It may be the
most important film ever made
It should be screened everywhere on earth.”
The film is being sponsored by
the Politics Club and the InterResidence Council. Showing will
be held on Friday, Saturday and
Sunday evenings in the Tower
Private Dining Room and on Monday and Tuesday in the Conference Theater.

A.; You are right, we should provide the opportunity and means
to receive channel 17. Members of the Housing Office staff have been
exploring the means whereby converters could be added to their
existing TV sets to make channel 17 available to students. The problem is currently under technical advisement and if the cost is not
prohibitive they hope to make this accommodation by next year, at

the latest. The recent announcement that channel 17 will be beamed
a higher frequency makes this a clearer possibility. Norton Hall
would like to purchase a new TV set, which it desperately needs, but
will be able to do so only when funds are made available. Mr. Leonard Zweig, Chairman of our Instructional Communication Center,
agreed we should be offering this service to students but indicated
he does not have sufficient personnel to make the service available.
A TV set capable of receiving channel 17 is available in the department and he volunteered the set for special programs to any student
group who will provide space and guarantee its security.

Q.: Why doesn't our University operate on the same calendar as

other SUNY units?

A.; Each unit develops its own calendar in accordance with its
individual needs. However, SUNYAB is in the process of considering
bringing its own calendar into closer alignment with other SUNY
units, while at the same time, being careful to make changes consistent with its own needs. The Calendar Committee, now chaired by
Vice President Warren G. Bennis, will shortly propose a new calendar
that will be aligned with not only other SUNY units but with the
world at large.

Q.: Why are transcripts given to students marked "unofficial?"

A.: Transcripts are considered to be “official” only if they are
sent directly from the issuing University to another institution, company, etc. Any transcript which comes from another source is not
considered official for obvious reasons (i.e. records may not be up-todate, grades could have been altered, etc.) Official transcripts bear
the school seal and facsimile signature of the Assistant Director for
Records. This is the established procedure formulated by the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers and
is followed by all colleges and universities. Many students request
copies of their complete record for their own use or to show to prospective employers, organizations, etc. who do not require official
records. Although many colleges will not give records to their
students on this basis, we have done so as a service to students.
These records are stamped “unofficial” or “student copy” to indicate
that it is not an official transcript. In special cases, exceptions are
made if the student is required to bring an official transcript with
him. These are usually for someone entering the Armed Forces and
the official transcript is given to the student in a sealed, stapled envelope indicating that the transcript is not to be considered official

of the Pelopponesian War as a
background, and portraying the
modern situation himself through
a collage-dance-sequence, he con-

trasted the dilemmas of then and

now. His point was painfully obvious; the situations are identical.

One was made to question the
progress of Man in 2500 years,
and even for the most pessimistic
this must have been alarming.
In the collage, most vivid was
his run through the full gamut of
War—the patriotic man aroused
by his patriotic feelings through

Nagrin showed he was more than

of Holy Cross. While Buffalo was experiencing a frustrating
afternoon with the Villanova Wildcats, the Crusaders battled
in vain to a 7-7 deadlock against Boston University last week.
The Crusaders come to Rotary Field with better credentials than their 1-2-1 record
indicates. Quarterback Phil

O’Neil, a lefthanded senior,
threw for 1378 yards and 10
touchdowns last year. He came
within 195 yards of breaking the
Holy Cross record for the most
passing yardage in a season.
Backing up O'Neil is Mark auowatt, a determined sophomore.
Mowatt was outstanding as a
frosh and although he can’t throw
as well as O’Neil, he is a better

runner.

The starting backs will probably be Steve Jutras, Ed Murphy
and Tom Lamb as fullback. Jutras was one of Holy Cross’ top
ground gainers last season, averaging 3.7 yards on 64 carries for
248 yards. Junior Tom Lamb
missed most of the season with
a knee injury. Along with these
starting backs are Dan O’Rourke
and Tony D'Agato, returning lettermen.
Holy Cross has a strong backfield. With O'Neil at quarterback
and strong runners, the Crusaders
have a good ground attack. However, lack of backfield speed
hampers their attack.
Co-captain Bob Neary, 6’2”, 200
pounds, heads the strong end
squad. Neary was the leading

a year ago, with 34
for 485 yards and
three touchdowns. He doesn’t
have great speed, but is a good
blocker and has an exceptional
pair of hands. Tight end Jim McClowrfly, 6’3”, 220 pounds, only
played in two freshman games
last year, but scored 37 points.
He has great hands, fair speed
and is a top blocker in addition
to being a fine placement kicker.

The Crusaders are strong at
offense tackle, but had a problem in finding a center and two
guards. Coach Thomas Boisture
converted Vic Lewandowsky (6’4”,
235 pounds) from tackle to center.
Two good looking sophomores,
Doug Kane and Charlie Boytano,
have taken over the guard positions. Returning at tackles are
Dave FarineUa and Bill Mon-

ccricz.

At 6’3”. 225 pounds, Moncericz
has size as well as ability and is
considered by the Holy Cross
coaching staff to be one of the
better offensive linemen in the

Buffalo’s prime concern will be

Bulls practically beat themselves
Saturday, continually turning the
ball over to the Wildcats. They
lost four fumbles (after fumbling
seven times but recovering three),
two passes were intercepted and
two kicks were blocked—a punt
and a field goal attempt. In addition, Buffalo was penalized at
crucial points in the game. The
Bulls had many scoring oppor-

tunities, but didn’t execute well

enough to move the ball consistently and score.

The University prides itself on
keeping its errors below the opposition and keeping penalties

to a low. If Buffalo stops the
Crusaders’ ground and aerial attack and gets the ball over the
goal line more, the Bulls could

Wednesday against Niagara Community College. That match will
be played on Buffalo’s home Au-

So far the linksmen have been
enjoying one of their greatest
seasons ever. Led by the overall
consistency of Ted Beringer, Dick
Stone and Gary Bader the Golfers
have rolled to a 6-1-1 log. Recently, John Lanz, Joe Zavisci
and Mike Riger have come into
their own, making the Bulls
doubly-tough.
Highlights of the season include a 18-0 zapping of Buffalo
State, a 13-5 win over Canisius
and a “revenge” victory over St.

beat the Bulls thus far.
The Golfers also put on an impressive showing in the annual
Eastern Collegiate Athletic Association tournament held on Oct.

the Bulls placed a respectable
fifth in the 21 team tournament.
Coached by Len Serfustini and

�Greek

strike-out
by Daniel Edelman

After spending the last two weeks glued to the boob tube watching and even emotionally experiencing the pageantry, the excitement
and the competition of the Olympic Games, one is reminded of the
tremendous impact which the medium of television has on the world
of sport.

The visual coverage of television is limitless. Its omnipotent
cameras bring any sport home in near entirety. It enables the viewer
to see more of the Olympic Games than anyone could possibly see
in Mexico City. It has made professional football ‘The Game of the
Sixties’ because it is the perfect game for television coverage.
Unfortunately, while the visual portion of televising sporting
events has be'en refined to a highly technical art largely through
the efforts of Roone Arledge, executive producer of ABC Sports,
sportscasting has not advanced to any significant degree.

In the thirties and the forties, before the advent of television,
there was a plethora of great sportcasters. Each had his own individual style and unique method of describing the action. Some of
the announcers would deliberately exaggerate, others would broadcast as if they were running out of breath and might die at any
moment and still others would enthrall their audiences with colorful
and sometimes pithy stories.
Television has completely overturned these old methods of
sports reporting and has substituted a very bland and boring version
of sports reporting that, with the exception of a few individuals
whom we will discuss later, is the style of televised sportscasting
today.

The typical network sports announcer is one of the most conforming individuals you would ever care to meet. Nine times out of
ten you can anticipate what he is going to say. His speaking voice
is nondescript, with no trace of any regional accent, which is the
result of network training. Even the way he dresses is ultra-conforming—the network blazer, striped tie and dark pants. It’s as if the
networks are trying to ensure that each announcer will look, talk
and act in the same manner.
This wouldn’t be so bad if these announcers knew what the hell
they were talking about—at least some of the time. Usually they
don’t and the result is that oftentimes irate fans will simply turn the
sound off and just look at the picture knowing that the announcer
isn’t going to say anything more important than the lead-in to the
next commercial.
There are fortunately some exceptions to the generally bleak
picture

Howard Cosell, lawyer turned sportscaster, is the most controversial and exasperating figure in television sportscasting. His opinionated and at times prickly interviews with the likes of Muhammed
Ali, Jimmy Brown and Mickey Mantle have the quality of an interrogator grilling a dangerous criminal. Cosell is famous for his knowit-all attitudes and his ability to stir up trouble. He is one of
those people about whom everyone has a definite opinion—they
either like him or hate him, but whatever they feel about the man,
they all listen to him. You can be sure anything Cosell is associated
with will be of top quality, as witness the television documentaries on
Grambling College and the story of the pro football merger, “Pro
Football—Shotgun Marriage Sonny, Money, and Merger.” All in all,
Cosell is a rare bird on the sports scene.
Heywood Hale Broun is

one of the more pleasant new faces in

televised sports. His 10-minute vignettes on the CBS Saturday Report
are distinguished by a high level of originality and humor content.
Broun’s realm of reporting takes in such important sports events
as horeshoe championships, kite flying and trans-Oceanic sailing. He
always wears very colorful madras sports jackets which, together
with his British mustache, is the complete antithesis of network announcers. One only wishes we could see more of him.
The best part of the Olympic coverage has been the special
reports put together by photographer Robert Reger. His pictorial
essays on pole vaulter Bob Seagren and swimmer Mark Spitz give
the viewer at home an insight into the the techniques and the hidden
beauty of the sport.

Banner display planned for
ground-breaking ceremony
by Vin Pavis and Joy Buchnowski
Spectrum Staff Reporters

Inter-fraternity Council President Joe Cardarelli has announced the establishment of a
committee to explore the possibility of Greek participation in the
ground-breaking ceremony scheduled to take place at the Amherst
campus Thursday.

The committee, chaired by Gary
Schineller of Pi Lambda Tau, is
planning a motorcade to the
ceremony and a display of Greek
banners at the ground-breaking
itself. It also intends to send a
letter to administration officials
to inform them of the nature
and purpose of this action and
requesting an invitation for I.F.C.
representatives to attend the following reception.
The intent behind this request
is to present President Meyerson,
Dr. Samuel Gould and Gov. Rockefeller with the fact that the
fraternity system has endured at
Buffalo and to remind them that
students continue to support the
Greeks.
The IFC representatives will request that with the advent of a
new campus, it is time for officials to review University System
policy towards fraternities and
sororities here.
The I.F.C. has also planned to
initiate a referendum on the

�Packard to discuss
‘sexual wilderness’
"There appears to be a correlation between the height of miniskirts and the degree of sexual
experience of those wearing
them.” With these words, author
Vance Packard lends scientific
credence to a supposition common among males, but previously
not objectively proven. Mr. Packard, author of such popular sociological studies as The Hidden
Persuaders and The Status Seekers, will discuss his most recent
book, The Sexual Wilderness, on
WBFO’s weekly magazine program ''Listen” Sunday at 10:00
p.m.

Although the quotation above
is in a lighter vein, the book is
a serious one, and in the interview
with “Listen” program editor
Henry L. Tenenbaum, Mr. Packard discusses his recent survey
of America’s sexual attitudes, using information gleaned from previous research and a survey of
college-age women’s sexual attitudes and experiences. In addition to the hemline correlations,
Packard noted some surprising

changes in male and female

sex-

ual roles. He has described the
modern female as a “critical
spectator” in the sexual act .
as assessors of the male’s performance and the quality of his relationships, while at the same
time perpetuating the “double
standard” of female sexuality
which they (females) have long
condemned. “A society that is in
a playful mood is not a society
that is going to be prodigious in
terms of improving the quality
of its thought, its creativity, or its
productivity” . . . Vance Packard
on The Sexual Wilderness, Sunday at 10 p.m.
Also featured on Sunday’s “Listen” is an address by syndicated
newspaper columnist Max Lerner
entitled “The Candidates: Style
and Character,” the first in a
series of talks by Dr. Lerner on
this year’s national election. A
Professor of American Civilization and World Polities at Brandeis University, Dr. Lerner is the
author of such books as America
as a Civilization and The Age of
Overkill.

After a long delay that is now
typical of the major recording
companies, Sailor—the second
album by the Steve Miller Band—was finally released. The tapes
for the album were completed a

release of their first album, Children of the Future. Steve Miller
is no newcomer to the music
scene, having played blues with
Barry Goldberg previous to forming his own group.

Steve Miller is fond of using
non-musical sound effects to create moods surrounding his music.
“Song For Our Ancestors” carries
the theme of the album, beginning with a minute or two of harbor sounds. Out of the lapping
waters and rolling mist rises an
arrangement of intertwining organ and strings, something else
that Steve Miller likes to do.

at the end of “My Friend” is different and exicting. The rhythm
is carried by handclapping and
layers of bass and guitar are built
upon it. On a stereo machine the
lead guitar moves between the
speakers, creating the illusion of
more instruments than there really are.
“Lucky Man” shifts from an
acoustic guitar lead to a tight
pulsing rhythm, with a layer of
sighing voices that really brings
home a fine organ solo. “Dime-ADance Romance” is movingly
tight with the band really working. It’s a cut of good hard rock,
but the lyrics seem to get lost
sometimes. The drumming gets
increasingly forceful at the end,
but it is a fine bass line that car
rics the song.

Overall, the album is inventive
and covers a lot of ground.

weapon: Youth

Recently, as I was sitting in my arm chair pondering the activist positions which students have
been taking in greater and greater numbers more
and more intensely, it struck me that the intensity

of the movements is somewhat absurd.
Let me start from the beginning: First, and I
don’t know from where, I recalled the fact that
Hitler was able to recruit the children, the youth
and the young adults to his movement (with exceptions of course). I then wondered if there had
ever been a mass movement where the youth and
young adults wre not recruited and in the extreme
case where the younger part of the population was
predominately against the older part.
To ask this question in respect to 18th and 19th

Asks

century Europe doesn’t even make sense. Of course
there were student movements, but they involved
the feelings of only a small percentage of the
younger population. The family was reasonably
intact and a person generally believed as did his
father and mother. The struggle was never younger
versus older.
What I am getting at is that we have the same
frustration, powerlessness and vision of a possibly
great future which are characteristic of mass movements. But we have got one weapon which will
probably remain undefeatable. We are younger than
they are. We will be in the saddle, we will be
strong and at the height of our powers when they
are feeble. Our ideals will win out.
Stanley Dayan

for support for Paul

To the editor
For many of us, participation in the Presidential
campaign means choosing the lesser of two evils;
and, for many, that choice is not worth making.
There are, however, a number of Congressional and
Senatorial races in which there exists a clear-out
choice. In New York State, Paul O’Dwyer, who represents what is best in politics today, is running
for the Senate seat now held by Jacob, Javits, and
O’Dwyer needs your help.
Paul O’Dwyer, more than any other candidate
for office, exemplifies the new politics: participation, youthful ideas, denial of our allegiance to the
Establishment. By refusing to support Hubert Humphrey, he has given us an act of conscience which
parallels that of Gene McCarthy. O’Dwyer’s courageous refusal has placed his race for the Senate
in a precarious position. Most regular Democratic
organizations are either not supporting him or are
lending only a token effort to his campaign. There
will be no mass media coverage to promote his
campaign because the treasuries of organized labor
and other institutions will not be made available
to him.
Paul O’Dwyer says: “If we turn off the young
*

O’Dwyer

people
it is our own fault, and if through
stupidity, insensitivity, and lack of foresight we lose
...

them, then America suffers, because we are the

big losers. They are our finest resources, and if I am
elected Senator, I promise to be listening. The
young people are not what's wrong with America."
This is what appeals to us, and when Paul O’Dwyer
says it, we believe it. He realized that it is the

young who carry the burden of the future. He wants
to give us a chance to make some of the decisions
much to ask and he is one of the few who is willing
to grant it. This is why we support Paul O’Dwyer
and urge you to do the same.
The power to decide this election rests in our
hands. If we give Paul O’Dwyer our all-out support
—as we did for Gene McCarthy, then we can win,
and win big in New York. We really can make the
crucial difference If you feel you have been neglected in the electoral process, then come out and
work for Paul O’Dwyer. If you care about your
future, then give up a weekend of your time and
help us canvass.

Come on out to Ridge Lea Saturday
To the editor.
In response to a petition requesting that the
Ridge Lea campus cafeteria serve hot meals on
weekends, it has been decreed that the cafeteria be
open for study and use of the vending machines on
Saturday from II a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from
1 p.m. to 6 p.m. This is being done on an experimental basis to see how many people will take advantage of this convenience. A maintenance man is
present on campus Sundays to count the number of
people who use the cafeteria. The trial period is
three weeks, and one has just passed, leaving the
experiment in effect until Nov. 3.
Oct. 20 the maintenance man locked the building
at 4 p.m., after assuring me that nobody else would
want to use the cafeteria. I work at the Ridge Lea
library and suggested that some of the students now
studying in the library might move over to the
cafeteria when the library closed at 5 p.m. So he
approached a group of students who were just leaving anyway and said: “You guys won’t be studying
past 5 p.m. when they close this place up, will you?”
It angers me that a petition should be answered
with such a poor compromise, then given neither a
fair trial, nor sufficient publicity. I believe that

there is one sign in the cafeteria announcing this
new arrangement. This is my second year working
at the library on weekends, and I am sure that if
they knew about it and had enough time to adjust
to the arrangement, more students would make use
of the cafeteria. If the request of the original petition had been granted, students would have gotten
into the habit of eating Saturday lunch on the campus. But you can not change a person’s study habits

in three weeks. And machine-food instead of cafeteria service is certainly not going to lure a sufficient number of students into the cafeteria to be
counted.
Those of you who have courses requiring any
work whatsoever on the Ridge Lea campus, come
on out next weekend. The bus runs on Saturday.
Check out your books and read them in the cafeteria. Bring your own lunch if you prefer, but be
there to be counted in the cafeteria. Once this need
is established, we can try again to get hot meals.
The campus would be a lot more pleasant place to
study if there were facilities for study breaks. If
anyone gets stranded at 5 p.m., I will personally
drive them to a bus stop.

In their “holiday mood” as you described it, a
gang of black girls dragged a white girl from an
NFT bus and robbed her as thirty passengers and
the driver watched.
Unbelievably the blacks made fools of the cops

by chasing them down the street, while the concern
of the police was to protect valuable property and
the thousands of people who were in theaters at
the time. They controlled a situation that could
have easily exploded and involved the whole city.

the black youths. They stopped what could have
been a disaster.

If the blacks of Buffalo are going to make any
headway in their just fight for equal rights, they’ll
have to start showing brains instead of hate and
irresponsibility.
I am dismayed at your racist attitude in writing
of the situation in the overwhelming by one-sided
manner in which you did, and in The Spectrum
for allowing your absurd farce to be published.

English program clarified

Let’s take time

To the editor:
It is unfortunate that the Spectrum reporter
responsible for the recent story on MFC did not
take the trouble to check her facts with the English
Department before making the statements she did
about “the plight of the English program” in MFC;
it is unfortunate too that Acting Dean Brutvan did
not check with his own staff prior to the Spectrum

The Student Polity Wednesday endorsed University
participation in a two-day "time-out” beginning next Tuesday
to allow the university community to reevaluate itself and its

structures.
Thus far the affair has only the Polity endorsement and
some indicated support from a segment of the faculty. The
attempt to transform classrooms into open forums to discuss
curricula, grading, course relevance and other important
educational issues is one that should be supported by all
segments of the University community.
We urge the Graduate Student Association, the Faculty
Senate Executive Committee and Faculty Senate standing
committees, the professional schools and all individual students, faculty and administrators to use this time for necessary self-study.

interview, for if he had he would have learned that
on Aug. 20 I informed his assistant, Mr. Keith Johnson, that the English Department was most anxious
to continue discussions with MFC, the Educational
Policy Committee of the Faculty of Arts and Letters, and University College on the department's
proposal (now almost two years old) for an interdisciplinary humanities major for MFC students,
but that until such time as a new program was
adopted, the English Department would continue
to offer the same program for majors in MFC as
it does for day-students.

"If they halt the bombing, and there’s a cease fire
and no more killing, I hope you’re satisfied."

Acting Dean Brutvan is apparently also unaware
that Prof. Joseph I. Fradin, associate chairman, and
I informed Dean Berner on separate occasions and
prior to my Aug. 20 conversation with Mr. Johnson, of the department’s intention of continuing its
program for the English major in MFC.

The State University at Stony Brook began Wednesday a
three-day schedule of open meetings and discussions on how
to restructure the University. Classes were cancelled, and
the Student Association, the Faculty Senate and the administration have endorsed and participated in what the New
York Times labeled a “self-trial.” This evening the students
and faculty there plan to make specific proposals which will
go to joint faculty and student committees. These will draw
up resolutions for University reform, to be submitted to the
student body for approval in the spring.
Such an event makes our two-day time-out look like a
tea party. And oddly enough, student leaders at Stony Brook
got their inspiration for the event from us “liberals” at
Buffalo. It would indeed be ironic if our protegees at Stony
Brook were to begin to move faster and farther on a crucial
course of redefining the University.

good) and not from promises; make sure faculty are not over

any further debate on an issue—and make sure is it the beginning, not the end, of the transformation process.
Let us not limit the actions of next Tuesday and Wednesday to a meager informal discussion of University-related
issues. In our classes we should discuss the role of the University and its members within this structure as well as in
the society at-large.

May I only add (perhaps gratuitously) that the
Department of English is actively interested in continuing to develop and promote in MFC programs
of the highest educational quality; indeed, our intentions toward the University’s “night people” are
made quite explicit in those programs (for both the
baccalaureate and continuing-education divisions)
that we proposed two years ago to the MFC administration. Needless to say, we sympathize with the

trying to keep law and order.
My basic argument is that the policemen in the
ghettoes should all be black, This way there would
be more understanding and better relationships between the Brothers and the law. When I was a teenager the policeman was our enemy and not our
friend—especially the white policeman.
When outbreaks take place in the black areas,
half or only a third of the policemen are actually
qualified to work with an even temper. Most of
them take their authority and the law in their own
hands, and they should not be the judge and the
prosecutor. There are too many unsolved murders
which have involved the murders of black people,
from Emmett Till to Richard Giff. How many more
will be unsolved?
I remember during the last riots in Buffalo I
overheard a pig say that all of the niggers should
be locked up. Right then and there that cop should
have been fired; he was not fit to serve on a law
enforcement team. You can’t teach with a night
stick or black jack. In order to learn the teacher
must first know the right road to communication.
Some policemen take pleasure in beating and
kicking some one who differs from their ways of
life. I think we all have ideas of straightening out
some one whom we don’t understand, or some one
who differs from us.
I know we all have said: “If I had my way I

Liberty

In The Spectrum Oct. 11 one finds the editors kneeling at the altar of the voting mystique,
in silent prayer to the God of the ballot . Ah, democracy! Last of the idols! Or perhaps the first
of their return?
Social democrats, humanists, Marxists, all have
their gods, in whose name the “sacred” are to be
worshiped, and the heretics slaughtered. Marxists,
humanists, and all the rest who see themselves as
so very, very radical and anti-establishment: Aren’t
they all little more than alienated politicians who
want to take over the state, so that they, too, can
compete in fitting individuals to their own particular plan?

Marxists and the rest want not to get others off
their backs, but to get on the backs of others. No
liberty for dissenters and heretics, only for believers, eh?

Meanwhile, I suggest that individualists go underground for a few centuries and let these people
fight it out, killing each other off as they compete
for the privilege of pushing people around. No
alternative this century, apparently.
How does it feel to be a member of the establishment, citizen?
R. A. Chiids, Jr.

It is up to us to decide whether it shall continue to be
a game, or whether future time-outs like this may one day
mean the beginning of not another episode in the game, but
instead a truly meaningful educational experience.

nomination. But there is always blood before there
is a bandaid, death before tears, pain before the
prayer, hunger before help. Let’s try and put pleasure before pain or rid the pain in the hearts and
heads of human brothers. I also mantain that our
friend the policeman should learn the conditions
which cause people to throw bricks at shop windows
—before he tightens his grip on his stick.

After a time-out, the “game” begins once again

only for believers?

To the editor:

would take so-in-so and bla, bla, bla, and lock him
up and throw away the key. This is an individual
stand we would like to take, but we don’t have the
authority judges have.
There isn’t one police force in any city in this
country that has complete control over all their
men. The average policeman knows nothing about
the law—he only knows sections which involve arrests which involve city ordinances. Some of them
don’t know that much. I maintain they should be
taught a few courses in communications, human
rights and sociology.
This still may not help stop some of their individual episodes. I had 15 stitches put in my head
from a sadistic stick-slingtng, pistol-packing pig, so
I know the damage some of their heads are in. To
me a policeman becomes a pig when he takes unnecessary steps of violence on some one’s head.
The only way to have an effective and well-liked
police force is to get rid of all these sadistic pigs.
They should use their minds some time instead
of their equipment. Even a mechanic knows when
and what type of tool to use for his job, why can’t
the policemen? I’m not asking the policemen to
walk around with love beads around their necks
chanting “hare krishna” but it would be better than
cracking some one’s skull. Most policemen believe
in an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. If our
world was like this, we all would be sucking soup
through a straw and wearing sunglasses.

We urge faculty members to cancel all classes Thursday
afternoon as well, even if it means re-scheduling mid-terms,
so that we may all attend the symbolic (and mythical?)
ground-breaking ceremonies in the marshlands of Amherst.
It is an excellent opportunity to let Chancellor Gould, Governor Rockefeller and the Trustees know what was discussed
the two previous days, that a large number of us are interested in the direction of the University and that we recognize
that without un-cut budgets the campus at Amherst will be
nothing more than a ten-vear project in building mediocrity.
We should go there and let these people know what kind of. question is. what Is law and who determines law
and order? The law is broken every time we back
University we want to be there—not what kind of buildings, out of our driveway
or spit on the s'reet. Maybe
but what kind of ideas, programs and people we want to we should revise some laws or follow some of the
religious laws of our denomination if we have a delive and grow'there.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Where will
it all end?
by Corydon Ireland
Spectrum Staff Reporter

There were a lot of police cars out that day.
Certainly more police cars than usually traverse
the area around Main St. and West Ferry, where
the headquarters for Urban Action is located.
People were hard at work in the offices and
in the press room of Urban Action, composing
and printing leaflets that were to be distributed
at the Richard Giff rally at Niagara Square the
next day, at which Freedom and Peace Party
candidate Dick Gregory was to appear.
At the same time, all afternoon and all night,
around and around the blocks the police cars
went, going up and down streets they did not

Faces questioners

University President Martin Meyerson, upper right
below, faced a rare questiori-and-answer period
in front of the American Association of University
Professors in Clark Gym last week.
and

Meyerson points to
adult backlash trend
University President Martin
Meyerson, speaking before an
open meeting of the American

Association of

University Profes-

sors, called recent federal legislation cutting off aid to students

involved in campus disorders
narrow” and “vindictive.”

Mr. Meyerson’s comments came
in response to a question from
the floor. It marked the first time
that he has participated in such

a general question-and-answer
period. The meeting was open to
hers.

Describing such legislation as

part of an

adult backlash sweep-

ing the country,” Mr. Meyerson

indicated that it is essential for

Universities to decide whether or
not they should accept any funds

under such restraints.
Toward the end of the questionand-answer period, Mr. Meyerson
was asked for his stand concerning a recent statement by James
Deelle, Director of Athletics, who
said that underprivileged black
students should not be admitted
to the University
in an additional

program since that would hurt the
present athletic program. Mr.
Meyerson said he was “thoroughly
opposed to any statement of that
nature.” He added that his feelings were the same way at the
time Mr. Peelle first made the

statement.
Mr. Meyerson was then ques-

tioned by Karen Duncan of the
National Student Association national office. -Miss Duncan indicated that there are rumors that
ROTC members are being trained
and asked how the University
would deal with a riot on campus.
Mr. Meyerson replied that there
is growing violence toward students from society. He continued
that the University would be prepared to defend academic freedom on campus and related civil
liberties off campus.

Gives address
The question period was prefaced by a 40-minute address by
Mr. Meyerson on “A University
Made of Men.” He emphasized
that the University is made of

men, not bricks, and called on

each teacher and student to aid
the University in attaining its

goals.

He claimed that students are
the ones that can save the University from the fate of disorders.
In his speech, the urban planner from Berkeley mentioned a
number of programs and proposals he has initiated, including
his concern with course loads and
the pass-fail system. Changes
which would prevent the student
“stamped or set in a locked pat-

tern” also concern him, he indicated. He noted that the University must have social order with
a minimum of coercion.
Mr. Meyerson then turned to
the main text of his speech, which
dealt with the American University of the 20th century and its
apparent similarity to the universities of the turn of the century.
The audience, numbering between 350 and 400 people, was
mainly composed of faculty members, although a number of students did appear.

“Pig,” and all the words and phrases and
slogans that can be derived from it, is in perfect
keeping with the pop venacular of the New Left.
There is nothing unusual about it; it was used at
demonstrations and at political rallies and it is
frequently seen in the New Left publications
when the general issue is police brutality, police
inefficiency or police inaction. In short, “pig” is
a popular heckle.
One cop did not think so. On that same Wednesday night, a day before the Giff rally, he was
walking his beat down West Ferry St., checking
store windows and doors across the road from
the Urban Action Association headquarters.
Potential danger
He was alone, without a car, and in a neighborhood which, to him, might have seemed potentially dangerous. Right next door to the Urban
Action storefront office is the headquarters of the
Buffalo Draft Resistance Union, a group that to
him is probably mysteriously New Left and faintly
pink. Uncomfortably there.
Sgt. Gerald Donovan was his name, from the
Cold Spring Station, and from across the street
he made a good target for a few innocent and
easy “oinks” and “soowies” from the people standing outside of the U.A. headquarters.
And to him the group standing out there, it
is reasonable to assume, did look threatening and
sounded threatening when they began to make
their pig noises loud enough so he could hear
them. After all, before they had only said the
noises to earless police cars. Now they had a set
of live ears to heckle at.
They stood in a group and made their noise
and had their fun. Then Patrolman Donovan disappeared. They thought nothing of it and went
on with their plans to get a late snack at the New
Chicago Lunch, a few blocks down Main St. It
was about 11 p.m.
Patrolman Donovan came back. This time he
was not alone or afraid since he had ten patrol
cars with him, 20 uniformed police, a Tactical
Police squad, and a number of plainclothesmen.

TWO BEAUTIFUL MEMENTOS...

effects
by Kathleen Wilde

Spectrum Staff Reporter

Addressing a youthful crowd
of close to 800 at Rosary Hill
College Wednesday, Pierre Salinger, former press secretary to
President John F. Kennedy, commented: "Television has brought
about an impersonal feeling between the government and the
governed. The government is
growing away from us
. people
feel some large, impersonal institution determining their fate.”
Citing how the revolution of
communications has altered public opinion, he spoHe on “The
Impact of Television on Politics.”
“Never before have we had so
much information,” he observed.
.“The more information, the less
we seem to grasp.”
The youthful Mr. Salinger, his
appearance accented by long sideburns and a paisley handkerchief
in his breast pocket, touched on
audience involvement when speaking on Vietnam and youth.
“A war 4000 miles away is
fought in every living room every
night on the seven and 11 o’clock
news. Public opinion is determined by the sight of neighbors,
sons and relatives being killed
in living color.”
.

.

Impersonal newspapers
He differentiated this from

reading impersonal facts in a
“cold-type newspaper.”

on

public opinion

Observing today’s generation as

the “total product of mass communications,” he said: “They
must give up their education to
go to school. We cannot tell them
there is no poverty, because they
know there is.”
“We cannot tell them there is

no racial discrimination, because
. . This is
they know there is.
.

the most well-informed generation there has ever been.”
Mass communication has contributed to the over-simplification
of every problem, as “TV commercials provide an instant and
simple solution to every problem.” Documentaries have followed this pattern by becoming
“neat wrap-ups of complicated
events.”
Returning to his main topic of
television in politics, Mr. Salinger
commented: “TV is central to everyone involved in politics and
puts a high price on elections. It
has brought a new dimension for
requirements: The personality of
the candidate on TV.”
In his 1964 quest for the Senate
from California—two-thirds of his
$2 million campaign was spent
on buying television time.

He believes that political candidates should not be allowed to
purchase TV time because of “the
premium this puts on rich people
running for office.”

r r',
;

On the future of mass communication, Mr. Salinger sees a
greater influence on a world-wide
basis. “Leaders will talk to the
people of other nations over the
heads of their leaders. There is
now a half-awareness that life is
somewhat better somewhere else.

Thieu warns against sellout
SAIGON—President Nguyen Van Thieu
said an unconditional halt in U.S. bombing
of North Vietnam was “impossible” and
that South Vietnam would never negotiate
with the Viet Cong. He said there had
been no breakthrough toward peace.
Thieu outlined South Vietnam’s position
in a news broadcast throughout South
Vietnam. It was his first public statement
since he began a series of urgent meetings
with U.S. Ambassador Ellsworth Bunker
amid reports of a new American peace
formula.
In his news conference at Vung Tau,
a coastal resort 42 miles southeast of
Saigon, Thieu hinted that he was apprehensive over the possibility of an agreement on a bombing halt between the

United States and North Vietnam.
Returning to this theme in his television address, Thieu indirectly warned
the United States against a sellout to the
Communists.

“I sincerely hope that the allied governments and peoples, the governments and
peoples of the free world, and the persons

who have shown their love and goodwill

for peace, will affirm that their love and

goodwill do not mean weakness or cowardliness or a willingness to accept a surren-

der to the Communists,” Thieu said.

The South Vietnamese leader was adamant about his refusal to recognize the National Liberation Front (NLF), political
arm of the Viet Cong, or hold any talks
with it. He said North Vietnam must “talk
directly” with South Vietnam.
“We never recognize the NLF so we
as individuals,
an entity, much less as a government,”
Thieu said.

never negotiate with them

There have been unconfirmed reports
that a U.S. bombing halt might be linked
to an agreement admitting South Vietnamese officials and NLF representatives
to the Paris talks between the United
States and North Vietnam, thus expanding
the conference into full-fledged peace
negotiations.

Thieu said that before a bombing halt
could be ordered, North Vietnam would
have to agree to de-escalate the war. He
said a bombing halt would be a matter of
“goodwill so North Vietnam would have
to answer with its goodwill also.”

HHH: Beware of Wallace
STRATFORD, Conn.—Hubert H. Humphrey took off his jacket Friday and reprimanded a small but vocal group of union
supporters of George C. Wallace, telling
them “it isn’t a black man that’s going

Throughout his brief speech, Humphrey

“one nation under God not a demagogue”
and asked the workers whether they
wanted either a Nixon-Agnew administration or Wallace-LeMay administration,

�Kissam describes violence
in Mexican student strike
Edward Kissam, a graduate student in the Department of English, described the conditions in
Mexico that have led up to the
revolutionary atmosphere there
during a rally of support striking
Mexican students Friday in Haas
Lounge.

After explaining that the rally
was being held to raise money
needed by the students, Mr, Kissam gave a history of the strike,

part of which he witnessed while
in Mexico this summer.
It was precipitated when police
broke up a fight between two
Mexican prep schools, he began.
A rally protesting police brutality, held three days later, was
also broken up.

Student strike called
During the next two weeks, a
national student strike was called.

Three protest rallies of about
300,000 people each were held.
The first were peaceful, he asserted but on Aug. 27, the police
waited for the crowd attending
the third to disperse, and then
closed in on the remaining 3000
students.
Mr. Kissam said that some people saw 15 students gunned down
at that time. He said be has seen
a movie showing students bayonetted and trying to crawl away.
Those who tried to aid them were

likewise slaughtered. The estimated death toll was 15 to 20. An
exact count could not be made
“because many wounded siuuems
were taken to army hospitals and
refused aid until they had ‘conhe claimed.
fessed,’
This incident was followed by
sporadic confrontations between
students and police until Sept. 17
when the army took over the National University, declaring it federal property until “responsible”
people came back to the University. Mr. Kissam said that when
the Polytechnic Institute was
taken over four days later, the
army met with nine hours of barricade and gunfire resistance.
”

1000 arrested

The worst massacre came Oct.
3, Mr. Kissam explained, after
students were led to believe that
the government might permit a
peaceful demonstration. At that
time, 400 demonstrators were attacked by the army with mortars,
high-powered rifles and tank turrets. People who shelter'd fleeing
students were arrested along with
them. About 100 persons were arrested.
About 3000 students are nsw
being held in-communicado in
jail or in an army camp outside
Mexico City, Mr. Kissam estimated. Of the 200-member strike
committee, about 50 are in jail.

Foreign students to
vote in referendum
A referendum to determine
whether to establish a Foreign
Student Organization to serve the
needs of all foreign students on
campus is currently being conducted. The proposed organization will attempt to unite the
various foreign student groups
that currently exist, on campus.
If the referendum is passed a
committee will be formed to compose a constitution which then
must be approved by another
referendum. The International
Club, which is sponsoring the referendum sent a special ballot to
each of the more than 900 foreign students that attend the
University.

Nabil Alami, president of the
International Club, urges each of
his members and every other foreign student to vote yes.
Mr. Alami believes the main
goal of the organization is to
unite the foreign students on
campus into a viable group which
can have an effective voice in
student government.
Hr. Alami feels the average
student on campus is not aware
of the presence of foreign students, because foreign students
have been fragmented into various groups such as the African

students and the Latin American
students. Hence, they have not
participated effectively in student
government.
Another aim of the proposed
organization is to form an amalgam between undergraduate and
graduate students. Mr. Aland

said: “We are all students here,
we all have the same goals and
aspirations,” By combining both
graduate and undergraduate students, the group hopes to act as
an example for the rest of the
student body.

If both groups can be united in
this manner, Mr, Alami hopes
that other organizations of graduate and undergraduate students
can be formed.

Others are working underground,
he said.
Legal means of protest are no
longer feasible, Mr. Kissam continued, and an armed revolution
may be forthcoming. Aid is coming from about 20% of govern-

ment civil servants in Mexico.
Passive in nature, assistance is also coming from a number of labor organizations, despite their
official anti-student position.

Could happen here
Mr. Kissam concluded that he

hopes Americans will show support for the oppressed Students.
Already political groups in San
Francisco have protested on the
grounds of the Mexican consulate

there.
He also hopes that Americans
now in Mexico City will see more
than just the Olympic games.
Juan Flores, one of the organizers of the California grape boycott, spoke next. He said that the
U.S. constantly provides aid to
the Mexican government, and that
in fact, the President of Mexico
was selected by the U.S. Congress.
He did not, however, indicate in
what way.

Mr. Flores repeated his plea
for aid from American students
and added: “You saw what happened in Chicago. This is going
to happen here.”

Shaw displays a genius for satirical humor and an almost omniscient knowledge of human psychology: it is a theatrical expose
that has symbolic complexity and

Polity will consider open
campus, academic freedom
The Polity of the Student Association will consider a “declaration of academic freedom and an
open campus” at its meeting Wednesday.
The agenda also includes a proposal to establish a committee to
study institutionalized racism at
the State University of Buffalo.

The proposed declaration on
academic freedom contains a portion written by Samuel P. Capen,
a former chancellor of the University in 1935. Dr. Capen wrote:
“.. . no repressive measures, direct or indirect, will be applied
to (teachers) no matter how unpopular they may become through
opposing powerful interests
. .
and no matter how mistaken they
may appear to be . . their continuance in office will be in all
instances governed by the prevailing rules of tenure. (Students)
may invite to address them any
speaker they may choose
.”
.

.

.

.

Demonstrations
A major portion of the declaration deals with picketing and
demonstrating. It states:
“In regard to on-campus student
actions and demonstrations that
tend to endanger life, public or
private property, or to violate
local, state or federal laws, each

student will take the consequences of his own actions as an
individual before the law, as well
as being referred to the Student
Court and appropriate University
disciplinary commitees.”
The statement sets up specified
guidelines governing on-campus
demonstrations;

“Picketing or demonstrating

to buildings or the normal flow

campus newspaper

The editorial gave figures to
prove that more students were
deliberately admitted than dormitory space could provide for. A
total of 4220 students were expected when there was room for
only 4000. Last June the housing
director had warned that if more
than 1500 freshmen were admitted, sophomore men would
have to be tripled.

Program blamed
Drs. Toll and Pond had given
the reason for this year’s unexpected tripling of sophomore
men as “the unexpected success
of the special opportunities program” for underprivileged students and misestimates of the
number of returning on-campus
students. The Statesman charged
them with lying and remarked
that “any intellectual dishonesty
is regarded as a serious offense
against the University community.”

The paper suggested the simple
solution of, in the future, admitting fewer students.
The Special Opportunities Program, the paper continued, should

Dr. Trask, Vice President for
Student Affairs, blamed the “delays in the construction of oncampus housing" for the overcrowding. But the University, the
Statesman pointed out, was aware
of the delays all along. In fact,
they did reduce the number of
students admitted from 1900 to
1700, still too high a figure.

The Statesman warns that students will no longer let themselves be treated as “gullible, irrelevant fools.” They quote a
1963 statement by Chancellor
Samuel Gould:
"We keep them (students) in
a sort of advanced nursery where
they are expected to play games

of make-believe and perpetuate
social activities that border on
the childish and inane. Students
are filled with doubts and questions, with fears and hopes. Most
of all, they are filled with tremendous energy, most of which
is now being frittered away on
unimportant matters.”
Students at Stony Brook, faced
with problems more serious than
Chancellor Gould suggested, are
meeting the problems with concrete suggestions. One student
leader spoke of the possibility
of getting pre-fabricated units as
a temporary solution to the housing shortage.

SMjce Ms formation in September, the Korean Student Association has been an organization
binding Korean students together
by both their ties to the Arirang
and to the unfamiliar surroundings at the State University of
Buffalo.

The Arirang is a traditional
Korean song which denotes the
symbols of Korea.
organization acts as a
“stepping stone for closer cooperation and promotion of mutual
understanding between Korean

The

and American Students,’' according to Choong W. Kang, secretary.

According to Mr. Kang: “State
University of Buffalo is offering
a favorable condition for foreign
students.” He foresees the possibility of more Korean students
coming here, under the expanding
Foreign Student program, to complete their graduate studies.
There are currently 25 Korean
graduate students here, mainly in

the field of the natural sciences.
AH are members of the Korean

Student Association.

“In line with the expanding
program,;’ Mr. Kang explained,
“we are going to engage in public relations in Korea so more
Korean students have the opportunity to study here.”
A former reporter with the Korean Herald, Mr. Kang mentioned
the introduction of the State University of Buffalo to Korea
through its various news media.
Three former reporters from Ko-

rea are currently graduate students. Most of the foreign students hold jobs ranging from
reporting to engineering in Korea.

Cultural activitie* planned
The Korean Student Association

is planning many cultural* activities in the future, including a

music recital by Korean musicians and a panel discussion of
problems currently facing Korea,
both political and social as a result of the country’s rapid tech-

nological development.

Mr. Kang, a graduate student in
the Political Science Department,

working toward his master’s degree, eventually plans to teach.
He will return to his own country
with the intention of aiding its
development, similar to most Korean students abroad.

ference is that an American has

The

Korean method of approach is theoretical, he noted, as
opposed to the more philosophical
approach of the Americans.
When asked his impressions of
the students he’d met here, Mr.
Kang said: “American students
are hard workers. I have a good
impression of them.” He expressed hope that American students will become involved in his
organization. Anyone interested

“I am sorry that I have to be here on such a sad occasion,

SHEAFFER*

The rally was held to protest
the lack of police action in the
sidewalk shooting of 17-year-old
Richard Giff Oct. 5.
Mr. Giff was shot in the back
by a man in a 1965 dark blue
car while he was walking along
Howard St. at approximately 2:30
a.m. He died Oct. 14. According
to literature distributed at the
rally by the ad hoc committee
on the murder of Richard Giff:
“he was murdered not by an individual but by the racist elements which dominate this so-

ciety.”
Students had begun to gather
in the square as early as noon,
and were addressed for some
time by individual black speakers who encouraged their listeners “to unite as brothers not just
for today but for always.” Gradually, nearly 1000 persons surrounded the McKinley monument
waiting for Mr. Gregory to ar-

rive.
An introductory speeech was
made by Bruce Beyer of the Buffalo Draft Resistance Union, who
requested that there be a minute
of silence or Mr. Gregory would
not speak. The silence was granted and Mr. Gregory began. Commenting on the death of Richard
Giff, Mr. Gregory said that he
wished “government officials
would get as shook up about this
murder as they would if a black
man shot a white woman.”

Wipe out syndicate
The presidential candidate specifically addressed youth as he
expressed hopes “that these kinds
of rallies will never be necessary
from the time you take over
until the last mortal lives on
earth.” He emphasized that “it
is about time that Americans
demand that their politicians
promise to wipe out the crime
syndicate and not just crime in
the streets.”
Referring to the Vietnam war,
Mr. Gregory demanded that “if
democracy is as good as we tell
you it is, why must we travel all
over the world ramming it down

everyone’s throats?” The audience answered this by a burst
of applause.
Mr. Gregory also pointed out
that whites tell blacks that only
by non-violence will they get
what they want. However, although the Indians are most nonviolent, he pointed out, “what
have they got?” Nevertheless Mr.
Gregory insisted that “I am com-

mitted to non-violence: I choose

not to take the right to carry
arms. But I would never take a
stick of dynamite out of your

hand and you should never take
a protest sign out of mine.”
He asserted that it is time for
us “to solve problems not as
black against white
white
against black . . . but as right
against wrong.” He expressed appreciation to “all who gathered
not just for law and order, but
for law, order and justice.”
—

Arrests made
Nine persons were arrested following brief disturbances downtown and in the ,city’s East Side
after the rally.
The evening before the shooting, Mr. Giff’s brother, Basil, 18,
was arrested outside a Memorial
Auditorium rally for George Wallace.
Basil Giff urged the crowd at
the rally to “keep this a peaceful
event in honor of my dead brother.” He announced that Mayor
Frank Sedita had expressed his
sorrow. But “if he really were sincere he would have come in person to talk to us.”
us.”
In reply to the charge of “lack
of police action,” Buffalo Detective Chief Ralph V. Degenhart
said that the Police Department
is “working diligently” in an effort to locate the killer.
Mr. Degenhart said the “entire
homicide squad,” consisting of
about 20 men, is working on the

case. They are following through

on several leads, he added.
Preceding Thursday’s rally, Bennett High School closed early because of a bomb scare, while
other public high schools experienced student walkouts and
high rates of absenteeism.
The disturbances following the
rally resulted in property damage
to several downtown businesses,
and several lootings.

�Furor surrounded SDS convention
gry reporter, however, of KTMN,

by Dorie Klein
College Editor

Amidst a furor worked up by Colorado’s Board of

lie-

gents and the Boulder mass media, national Students for a
Democratic Society held their convention last week.
It was a convention more
noteworthy for the circumstances under which it met
than for any tangible results
in terms of policy or planning.
The controversy had began
when Regent Joseph Coors threatened to ask for the resignation
of University President Dr.
George Smiley if SDS barred cameras and tape recorders from
their meetings. One of the stipulations Dr. Smiley had set up before permitting the conference at
the University of Colorado had
been admittance of the press to
all sessions. SDS had closed past
national conferences to the media,
which it claimed distorted its reports of the meetings.
Several of the state Regents had

been opposed to letting SDS
vene on campus at all.

con-

Bars cameras

At the first meeting Friday,
SDS decided to bar cameras and
recording devices. John Buttny, of
Boulder SDS, said: “We felt we
could not allow electronic equipment like cameras and lights because we would become actors instead of being able to conduct a
serious meeting.”
The group called its relations
with the press “good” and asked
for the right to work the problem out directly with them, rather than being subject to University regulation.

When SDS announced its decision, the press decided to contact SDS directly to work out a
solution, going over the heads of
administration officials. One an-

a Denver radio station, forced his
way into an SDS session with a
tape recorder. The students were

silent in response to his questions, then one began singing
“Silent Night” as the tape recorded.

President Smiley reacted to the
SDS decision by approving it,
hoping to avert a battle. Four of
the six Regents supported him.
The others are calling for his resignation. Thus a curious polarization occurred.
The yniversity was siding with
SDS, but it was opposing direct
relations between SDS and the
press. SDS, therefore, opposed the
University and insisted on its
right to handle its own public
relations.
Only one battle with the press
occurred
a TV camera was
smashed with an ice-cream cone,
and a newsman’s coat was torn.
—

Love defends Smiley
Governor John Love defended
Smiley’s position. He expressed
concern about future use of cam-

pus facilities by national groups
and said basic policy would be
reviewed shortly, asking: “Does a
free society have to be so free
that it allows itself to be destroyed?” He added that, far from being sure SDS aimed to destroy society: “I really don’t know what
they’re for.”
One Regent suggested a possible solution was to withdraw
University recognition from its
SDS chapter, which it celled an
“anarchistic, nihilistic organization that has no place on campus.”

Mike Klonsky, national chairman of SDS, said that the entire
problem had arisen because “the
Regents violated our contract.
They gave us the conference with
the press stipulations and we
agreed to them, but there was
nothing in that contract about
cameras or tape recorders.”
Another officer, Bernadine
Dohrn, said the issue “polarized
the campus.” She pointed out the
weakness of the adimnistration
which, caught in the middle, kept

GM

changing its position. “W« saw,”
John Buttny concluded, “that the
power of the governing University does not lie with the administration, but with the Regents."

Workshops met
The controversy among SDS itself centered around election tactics and a student Avorker alliance.
At the elections workshop, the
New York regional delegate, Jeff
Jones, outlined plans for election
tactics based roughly on mobilization plans; A G.I. week Nov. 1-5
to explain the SDS position on the
military; a national student strike
for “time out” Nov. 5 to protest
the election; local mobilizations,
rather than nationally focused action. A suggestion for a national
march in Washington was voted
down.

About one-fourth of the work-

shop disagreed, and may organize
national action on their own.

At another workshop, the idea
of a Student Labor Project
(SLAP)

as a

student-worker

al-

liance was voted down. The proProgressive Labor delegates were
for the creation of SLAP to draw
students and workers closer together. “Without the workers, we
can’t win,” was one argument.
The defeat of the proposal was
by a two-to-one margin.

The accounts of the incident in

The stories described it as a “general free-for-all” and a “slugfest,”
The police supposedly fought “20

days of the Vulture motorcycle
gangwars.

Quickly manacled

Karl didn’t really have to say a
word. The point of his story was
written all over his back. Several
long .thick welts and a number of
bruises and cuts clearly illustrated the story of a beating.

Morris Lenk, one of those taken
at the corner, sums up what happened at the station: “We were
manhandled and beaten, that’s
all.” Kronberg would rather think
of the scene at the station in
terms of “cops playing games.”
He claims that all six of the men
were lined up against a wall in a
back room at Station #6 and systematically beaten for an hour

booked

on the

charges of resisting arrest and
disorderly conduct. Bail was set

at $100 for five of the six men;
a sixth, William Rumsey, was set
free on $500 bail because of an
additional drug charge.
This story, perhaps, without

some indication of the emotional

atmosphere that created it would

not be credible. What makes the

abduction and beating incidents
believable is the fact that the
police were under heavy fire from
elements of the New Left and,
more significantly, from elements
of the black community because
of the Richard Giff slaying and
the charges of inaction which resulted.

Over simplification
The common line of

reasoning

from the protesters is that a police force, which could abduct a
bank robber so easily and professionally, yet seemingly bumble
over a murder case with racist
overtones (the shooting occurred
after a George Wallace rally) is
a police force which chooses when
to be professional and when not.
Admittedly, this is an oversimplification of the issue on the

of the Left and its black

part

compatriots, yet the fact remains

that pressure from these groups
rested squarely on the Buffalo
Police force.
The rally

was focused

at Niagara Square
on the Giff murder;

Gregory’s appearance there was
secondary, perhaps even to the
police since Gregory is not a candidate associated with violence or
demonstration. The rally then just
served to bring previous tensions

in focus. It is understandable that
incidents of extreme reaction or
violence occur at times when extreme tension between opposing
groups seems to demand it.
By this I do not mean to justify
the actions of the police at the
Cold Springs station, but only
clarify the emotional context in
which it occurred. I do not mean
to defend it, but only to say that
it was possible.

growing with “protective reinforcements.”

The line of police gradually
moved up Genessee St., the kids

by periodic siren wails and scurrying red-faced cops watched by
rows of white eyes peering out of
the doorways, porches and windows of the dusty wooden ghetto

Thursday night several “disturbances” were reported involving the usual windowbreaking,
minor lootings, a few muggings,
several arrests and, of course,
some “attacks on police officers.”
Police patrols in the ghetto had
been stepped up following the afternoon’s exhibitionism in a vain
attempt to show there was some
reason to it all. Apparently the
window breaking during the night
somehow implicated Mr. Gregory
as another “outside agitator.”

YOU MUST
HAVE AN
OPEN MIND!!!

When the Blues came north with the black migration,
urbanizing with arranged charts and the addition of horns,
much of the individual creativity connected with the oneman/one-ax situation was lost.

The New Chicago Lunch is very
conscious of its roots. It is also
very conscious of the roots of
each of its members. The diversity of musical experience within
the group accounts for the electic blending of nine voices into
a sound that is not rock, not
blues, not jazz, not soul or modern classical, but a hybrid of all
contemporary music.
While it is true that the “head”
of a specific arrangement may
fall into one or more of the above
categories, after the first 32 bars
the rigid structure is taken apart
piece by piece. The sidemen step
to the front and stretch it out.
This unique reliance on individual improvization is a major departure from the usual RockBlues—Soul form.

Far from New York

For example, the extended solo
taken by alto man Joe Ford in
“Argonauts”—a tune written and
arranged by Jon Weiss (keyboard)
“Outside agitators” had caused —leads the group as far away

music for the Lunch. During the
seven years he has been playing
he has worked with the ‘Pepsi
Six,’ ‘The Extremes’ as well as

bands in Detroit, Cleveland and
New York. Strongly influenced
by Bartok, Joe’s more immediate
masters include King Curtis, Cannonball and the late John Coltraine.

extension of his academic studies

His picture will appear on their
new album, The New Chicago

week.

Musical 'brain'
Jon Weiss, along with Joe Ford,
is the musical “brain” of the
“Lunch.” A graduate student in
music, he plays the piano, organ
and does much of the composing
and arranging for the group. Not,
strictly speaking, a heavy on the
keyboard, Jon achieves “heavyness” with an intricate subtlety
which immediately reminds one
of the lines blown by the early
Herbie Hancock. Close observers
of the band have noticed his
pointed ears, shifty eyes and pigeoned toes asquired while living
and playing on the New York

jazz scene.

refers to himself in all modesty
as the best bassman on the eastside. Jimmy Mattison on guitar

Mike Weis until the “Lunch”
formed was primarily a

vocal for the group. Other than
“jamming” with a few friends
this is the first opportunity he
has had to vent his talents publicly. Mike is a senior at this uniwas

versity.
Once known as “Queen of the
Hippies,” Madeline Davis now
sings and plays a 12 string guitar
for the group. Classically trained,
her Voice has an amazing range.
A big girl, she understands how
to put all of herself into a tune.
Obviously a group of this size
and diversity would have some
difficulty finding work. One club
owner after hearing the tune
“Ragu-mop” thought that the
sound was too progressive. Consequently the “Lunch” has been
playing at wakes and bar mitzvahs, or any place where it is
possible for people to sit and listen.
Their next concert will be on

Halloween in the Fillmore Room
starting at midnight. Sounds ap-

lot of good ideas: to make the
grad school more flexible and decentralized, to do away with some
of the bureaucratic regulations,
to change its educational direction, to give the faculty a stimulating and coordinating function rather than a controlling one.
“My thrust during the year was
to dissolve the antiquated structures and to try to bring them
into consistency with the new
structures of President Meyerson’s re-organization plan.”

Faculty stalled
Unfortunately, that thrust

was

met with a rather obstinate tendancy to stall by members of the
graduate

faculty.

“Everything

went well the first semester,”

Dean Snell said. “We drew up an
original academic plan in October
which appeared as a final draft
in January. The criticism this
first plan evoked was largely submerged at the time. It was dealt
with by a group from the Health
Sciences faculty who helped form-

of 22 to 20.” The
faculty numbers about 600—perhaps
it was a nice day at Crystal Beach.

Stick to by-laws

The annual meeting of the graduate faculty in May drew a considerably better turn-out —200 in
all—but perhaps i/t was just a
case of greater motivation. “There
was a lot of scurrying around behind the scenes to get that number to show up—those who came
were mostly the more preserva-

tive elements. If you recall, the
atmosphere at that meeting was
quite hostile. What they resolved,
in effect, was ‘Look, Snell, you
haven’t been doing your job this
year—which consists of following
the existing by-laws. So let’s hold
where we are for the next two
years by sticking to those bylaws.’
“The resolution wasn’t passed
because of the automatic time expiration we placed on the meeting, but it was clear that most of
those present wanted a return to
the old structure.”

Le Bonheur
Can a man, happily married,
love two women at the same time?

This is the problem posed by
Agnes Varda in her haunting,
sensuous color film, “Le Bonheur.” The story concerns a young
carpenter and his adultery with
two loves. One, his wife Therese,
whom he loves gently and joyfully; the other, a free young
Post Office clerk Emilie, whom
he loves sensuously and passionately.

“Le Bonheur” in French is lit-

erally translated as “Happiness.”

The title is not ironic; instead
the film is a.hymn to love and

nature.
One Sunday in the country,
Francois reveals to his wife that
he loves another woman—his mistress. But he explains this affair
does not subtract from the love
he feels for his wife.

He says: “It’s quite simple

Agnes Varda resolves these

The Spectrum

�Oral health service stresses
preventive dentistry program
more personnel.

by Rod Gere
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

“If you don’t like students, you
don’t belong here. If you don’t
practice good dentistry, you don’t
belong here either.”
This comment by Dr. George
Goldfarb, dental director of the
Student Oral Health Service, sums
up the goals of what he hopes
will eventually be a confplete student oral health service. He hopes
that professional dental service
will one day be available to all
students.
Initial facilities are housed in
1200 square feet of former dormitory space on the second floor
of Michael Hall. Included there
are a waiting room, administrative offices, examination and
treatment rooms and a darkroom.
Because of space, funds and personnel, most of the service is
concentrated on what Dr. Goldfarb calls “prevention dentistry.”
He estimated that an effective

preventive dentistry program can
decrease

cavities

and

oral diseases by approximately 40%. Dr.
Goldfarb explained that “preventive dentistry is painless dentistry which can save time and
money as well as increase the
patient’s comfort. It is easier to
prevent cavities than to go
through the ordeal of treating
them once they are formed.”

Senior Dental
School students and hygiene students from Erie County Technical
Institute also observe and assist
in the operations.
Because of this expansion, free
preventive dental service is now
'-available to increased numbers of
students.
Dr. Goldfarb urged as many
students as possible to take advantage of this service. He suggested that interested students
call Mrs. Jill Senzer at 831-5341,
front 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Tuesday
and Friday, and from 9 a.m. to
12 p.m. on Wednesday.
—*

Emergency service
Dr. Goldfarb also announced
the arrangement of an emergency
treatment service. During normal
school hours students requiring
this service should contact the
Admissions and Records office of
the School of Dentistry in room
G-35, Capen Hall, or call 831-2831.
Any other time they may obtain
treatment from the dental resident at Meyer Memorial Hospital.

The dental service now being
offered makes this University one
of the few in the nation that concern themselves with the oral
health of their students. This is
largely because of the commitment of University Health Service
Director Paul F. Hoffman to the
idea that complete health service
for students includes dental care.
Present facilities are seen as a
pilot program from which a complete dental health service will
evolve. Although at the present
time, service emphasizes preventive dentistry, Dr. Goldfarb expresed a desire to see the program become a comprehensive
oral health center where students can receive professional
care.

�Late Again
“Super! Neato! Groovy! Just
like ninth grade,” quoth a friend
of mine hearing the latest Peter,
Paul, and Mary album. Precisely.
Let it be known, I tried to say
kind things but the record just
isn’t particularly exciting.

It took twenty-four musicians
and three extra singers to produce Late Again. I guess that’s
some sort of a record. The title is
appropriate as the arrangements
and lyrics are about five years
old. In the song “Moments of
Soft Persuasion” they tell us how
the ocean is the healer of man’s
suffering and that “now the time
is now—tomorrow.” Wonderful.
And singing “There’s Anger in

the Land” in soft, dainty tenor
somehow fails to move me.
“Love City” is the best song on
the album. The lyrics are efficiently poetic: “Hey Margaret
I’m not coming home, and I’ll
stay here along if you can’t get
free to follow.” The drummer
does a good job in this cut
too.
Side two is weaker. “Tramp in
the Street” is a ballad type song
done by a one handed organist.
You can hum along even if you’ve

ndVer heard it before. The story

is about Christ and how He died
for the people who thought He
was only a tramp . . .
“I Shall Be Released” is the
song that three extra singers get

in on. They chant the chorus to
Peter’s lament—I think it’s some
kind of death wish. Everyone
does what he is supposed to do
but “Late Again” lacks energy.
The words we’ve all heard before,
and the music is strictly fundamental.

Newsweek Magazine calls them
“fresh and young.”
Time Magazine calls them
“vital to our time.”
Have I been outclassed?
Peter, Paul and Mary have very
pleasant voices to listen and relax to. But their kind of mild
protest and commentary doesn’t
fit into any life world I know of
in 1968.

Editor’s note—This is the first
article of a four part series which
wilt trace the development of the

STC Fall production “Sweet Charity."

by Rosalind

Stall

Jarrett

Reporter

November 13 is but three weeks
away. In that short span of time
you will probably be busy cramming for midterms, campaigning
for 1968 Presidential election,
cheering or condemning the results. In those same few weeks,
the Student Theatre Guild will be

feverishly rehearsing, designing,
building and preparing their major fall production, the musical
“Sweet Charity.”
The Student Theatre Guild is
devoted to involving as many students as possible in theater at the
State University of Buffalo. With

this aim in mind the progress of
“Sweet Charity,” the first all-student produced musical at State
University of Buffalo will be followed in this series of articles.
Based on an original screen
play, “The Nights of Cabiria,"
by Fredrico Fellini, Tullo Pinelli
and Ennio Plaiano, “Sweet Charity” is the tender, poignant and
funny look at the romantic misadventures of a gullible and guilless dance-hall hostess known as
Charity Hope Valentine, who always gives her heart and her
earnings to the wrong men.
Charity sings, dances and cries
her way through romances with
Charley—“WeTe engaged to be
wed the minute his own marriage
Vittorio Vidal,
a super-star a la Marcello Mas-

troanni, and lastly, with Oscar,
who is an “impossible-to-believebut he’s better
than nothing” hero.
Charity’s search for love takes
her from emersion in the Central
Park Lake, to the 92nd Street
“Y,” to the Rhythm of Life
Church, where the liturgy is jazz
and the sacrament is grass (the
kind you grow in window boxes).
“Sweet Charity” is a musical in
every sense of the word. Cy Coleman’s music and Dorothy Field’s
lyrics have captured the rhythm
and sounds of present day New
York.
Almost without exception, the
cast and production staff are students or recent graduates of State
University Of Buffalo. Directing
“Sweet Charity” is Robert Nigro,
a senior English major and the
president of the Student Theater
Guild. The musical director is
Michael Sandgarten, an instructor
in the Music Department. Vocal
direction is by Michael Amorosi,
a junior music major.
The choreography is conceived
and directed by Patricia Brown,
a senior drama major. Designing
the sets and costumes is Richard
Kaweck, a recent graduate and
JoAnn Cohen, a sophomore in
production stage management.
Principals in the cast are Carol
Kauderer, Susan Gayle Zorfas,
Marci Tanner, David LaRonde,
Eric Freedus, Rosalind Jarrett,
Brian Adams, Deborah Hissch,
Doris Kurk and Rick Jacobs.
“Sweet Charity” will be presented Nov. 13-17 at 8:30 p.m„ in
the Millard Fillmore Room, Norton Hall.

year," Dean Snell said in reference to the faculty. “And as for
the administration, in general
they were very supportive, though
they didn’t always agree with me
on strategy. I was really pushing
the administration pretty hard on
main issues. A lot of the objection directed at me,” he said,
“was really , being directed at
President Meyerson. There were
a lot of latent questions about his
academic organization and planning.”

There was opposition on another issue—aside from his academic plans. Dean Snell has long
been a vocal critic of the war in
Vietnam. He ran for a seat as a
McCarthy delegate to the Democratic convention, formed an adhoc committee to study Selective
Service Teaching Assistant deferment policies, submitted a proposal to the Faculty Senate to
avoid University complicity with
the Selective Service and sponsored a plan to have on-campus
facilities print up a “Vietnam
Curriculum” for use in high
schools.

“I think I detected a good bit
of criticism for ‘using this office
as a platform.’ This was not always directly stated to me, but
was evident in the ‘undercurrents’
of feeling. My position in introducing the Vietnam resolution
caused a fair amount of disturbance.”

Rocking the boat
Eventually, Dean Snell became
a symbol. “You can’t escape from

association. I became identified
as a person who rocks the boat
and not one who hangs on to the
historical past. I became identified with the feeling that students
are an important voice in the
University. I was trying, in many
cases, to get the faculty to listen.
The students are the future, not
us. We can’t build up defenses
and turn a deaf ear, but we have
to listen and act. I was trying to

faculties are liberal towards the
outside world, but conservative
about the inside one, their own.”
And there goes another foolish
childhood illusion: His tweed
jacket fraying at the elbows, his
pipe clenched between gritted
teeth and a worn volume of Thoreau clasped firmly to his chest,
the college professor goes out to
change the world. But mowing
his lawn?

Symbol is out
“Everyone resists change, but

to me, it’s exciting. I’m more of
an experimentalist. I don’t need
the security that goes with form-

alism and structuralism,” Dean

Snell said. And so, sadly enough,
Dean Snell resigned so that perhaps some of that change could
be realized.
“One of my chief concerns in
submitting my resignation was
that I felt I might be letting
down a large segment of the student body and faculty. I have
now come to the opposite conclusion. Perhaps changes will be

able to be made now that the
Symbol is out. I felt that since
I had become symbolized and politicized, the original climate
which I tried to establish in the
graduate school would have a better chance of surviving if I were

.

out. By resigning, I pulled the
rug out from under those who
were up-tight about me. Now it’s
possible to have change this year,
maybe even this semester.”

On to Amherst
Maybe. And Dean Snell will
become the Master of one of the
Colleges at the new Amherst campus where he sees “some real
possibility for experimentation
and educational thrust, a demonstrable model of how the rest of
the University should be. Hopefully, we will try to get the University, through the medium of
the Colleges, to change its educational direction. It’s analogous to
a yeast which grows by shoving
off a bud with different characteristics than the yeast itself—then
the rest can follow.”

Dean Snell does not want to be
considered a symbol of anything,
nor should he be. He is not the
Mark Rudd of Administration
Row. He had some high hopes
for the graduate school, but a lot
of factors would not allow him to
see them through. That’s all. But
it’s just sort of sad that in a University that pats itself on the back
for its progressive outlook, a man
with ideals has to resign to have
them realized.

Wildcats claw Bulls, 28-7
Saturday afternoon marked the
State University of Buffalo’s
homecoming game, but Villanova’s Wildcats made it uncomfortable for Buffalo rooters as
they defeated the hosts 28-7, before 9627 sun-drenched fans.

The first half was quite close
with the Bulls leading 7-6 at halftime. However, Villanova completely dominated play in the second half and scored three times
while shutting out the Bulls.

The second occasion occurred

It’s a lot

of bull

by Richard Baumgarten
The legend of Buster the Bull ranks as one of the great sports
classics of the State University of Buffalo. Buster is the official
football mascot.
Actually, Buster is the fifth bull to be a Buffalo mascot. The
original Buster was donated by Liz Taylor and Mike Todd in 1956.
“We can only keep the bull for two or three years,” explains Mrs.
Chester Maleck, who keeps Buster on her Elma, N. Y. farm. “After
the first couple of years they get too heavy and they don’t want to
run any more.”
Buster V and his predecessors are all decended from Buster I.
A real traveling bull, Buster goes to all State University of Buffalo
home games. And when Buster travels he goes first class transportation. Unlike the average run-of-the-mill bull, Buster has his own
eight-foot-high trailer.
Does the bull like to travel? “Well, sometimes he hollers a
little,” says Mrs. Maleck.
If you think Buster leads a dull
existence on the Maleek farm, you
couldn’t be more mistaken. “He
lives the life of leisure,” says
Mrs. Maleek. “He just eats and
grazes around all day.” Definitely
a connoissieur of fine food, Buster
enjoys such delicacies as ground
oats and green grass.

Holds attendance records

Buster V is now ten weks old.
He is a pedigree Irish Dexter bull,
and somewhat of a rarity when
y ou consider that there are only
400 Irish Dexter bulls in the entire United States. The bull now tips the scales at a trim 150, although he’ll get much bigger. When fully grown, Buster will probably weigh close to 1100 pounds.
As you can well imagine, Buster the bull holds every conceivable
Buffalo attendance record. There has been a Buster at every home
football game since 1956. For 12 years, rain or shine, a Buster
has led the “Blue and White” football players onto the field.
At least once a year, Buster travels to an away football game.
It is estimated that Buster has logged over 8000 miles in his travels.
Buster has been in five states including Ohio, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New York and Vermont.
As befits a University bull, education has been an important
part of Buster’s travels. Buster has even indulged in American
history. Buster has grazed in the Boston Commons. He has witnessed the Liberty Bell in historic Philadelphia. Buster even toured
Harvard, when Buffalo upset the Crimson in 1958 en route to the

Blister

Lambert Cup.
Close call at Army

But life hasn’t always been so rosy for Buster. The Buffalo
bull has had some pretty close calls. At Army, when Buster was
stabled in the veterinarian quarters, the Army animal surgeon was
going to brand an “A” on Buster.
“Buster put the surgeon right up the wall,” mused Mrs. Maleck,
recalling the incident, “Even though Buffalo lost that game, Buster
didn't take anything from Army.”
Mrs. Maleck also remembers the time “the Army mule went after
Buster. In self-defense Buster was going to butt him, but the Army
mule backed down
■
”

the Delaware Hens. Two hundred pound Buffalo Business Manager
Dan Daniels had said that if the referendum for mandatory athletic
tees passed, he was going to ride the bull. The referendum passed
and rumor had it that Mr. Daniels was out looking for a saddle.
Fortunately for Buster, when the time came for the bull-riding event,
Daniels was nowhere to be found and the incident was soon forgotten.
But despite his many hardships, Buster has remained a basically
gentle and friendly”
bull. “He especially likes children,” says Mrs.
Maleck, who lets youngsters feed Buster sugar cubes after every

Buffalo score.

If you’re wondering about Buster’s future when he gets too big
to be a
Buffalo bull, don’t worry. Buster is strictly a breeding bull,
there will be no Sizzle Steak House for this University mascot.

There was no scoring in the
first half until Villanova struck
from around 40 yards with 1:20

pass from Frank Boal to wingback Bill Walik. Dennis Kelley’s
placement was wide to the right
and the score remained 6-0.
The Bulls came charging back
and scored in two plays. The scoring play was a screen pass from
Perry to senior tailback Kenny
Rutkowski, who took the ball
from the visitors 45-yard line.
Bob Embow’s placement was
accurate and the Bulls led for
the first and last time of the
game at the midway point.

Bulls are gift-givers
The second half proved that
mistakes can, and often will,
come back to haunt. On three occasions the home team gave the

�Campus abuse of
alcohol discussed
*

"We have applied for a liquor
license and have advocated a wet
campus because these steps are
educationally sound and are useful in gaining a better University
life.” Dr. Anthony E. Lorenzetti,
assistant vice president and Director of of the Office of Student
Affairs so indicated his desire
for a wet campus.

Dr. Lorenzetti adde’d: “Only
when excesses jeopardize health
and well-being, or run counter
to the law, do we get concerned;
here, people could get hurt, break
the law or ruin other people’s
good times. This rule, of allowing alcohol on campus but restricting its use, is for good hard
core and basic reasons.”
chairman of the Alcohol
Review Board (ARB), Dr. Lorenzetti has done much to relax the
rules concerning liquor on campus.

The ARB, consisting of stu-

dents, faculty and administrators,
was formed last year to investigate the advisability of liquor on
campus. Its findings and advice
were respected by the administration. As a result, the consumption
of liquor was made legal in Nor-

ton Hall under

certain conditions,

and in the dormitories.

Board, the agent of the State
Liquor Authority, is considering
the license question.
Dr. Lorenzetti feels that there
have been no real problems with
alcohol on campus and that the
students are mature enough to

handle this new freedom. He fears
that the abuse of alcohol at football games might jeopardize the
license project, however. Dr.
Lorenzetti regards the drinking
at football games as isolated from
the norm.
The legal problems arising
from drinking on campus, either
at football games or in the Union,
namely serving drunks or minors,
can be overcome, he indicated.

Criticizes Action Lille

The Blueshirts

To the editor:

“In loyalty to their kind,

I am rather disgusted by the sloppy handling of
my Action Line query last week. Dr. Feldman of
the Psychology Department was interviewed in
response to my question of why the annual symposia on psychotherapy and behavior change never
start on time. My question was edited to infer
that once such a symposium had failed to meet its

I want it known that I have attended every session of these activities, and not one meeting in
three years has ever begun on its scheduled time

What’s news?
During an interview on a Public Broadcasting Laboratory television show on the press earlier this year, former
(of all things) White House Press Secretary and current publisher of Newsday, William Moyers noted:
“For a long time, there’s been a myth about journalism,
a myth shared by people who read us and view us, and a
myth shared by those of us who are in the profession.
“That myth has been that newspapers are . . . simply
mirrors of the world . that we simply reflect what is hap/■
pening in the world.
.

.

“We’re on the edge of a major development in the his-

tory of journalism in this country because there really is no
such thing, in journalism, as an innocent bystander—he isn’t
innocent, and to really understand what’s going on so that he
can make sense to the reader, he has to be part of it and see
it as a participant, and record what he feels.
“You do not have to accept it if you’re the reader. You
do not have to subscribe to it, but you do have to get a feeling that here’s a man trying to do his best to tell you, another
man, what he has seen and felt about something that has
happened, and this will open the creative processes of journalism in a way that writing the five W’s of the old traditional newslead will never do.”

In a recent article in the Evergreen Review, Nat Hentoff
noted;

“Increasingly I find that much of the freedom of feeling
I have in fiction can also be part of journalism, and so I intend to continue being a journalist too. However, that ‘visitor,’ that faceless, note-taking onlooker has gone for good
from my nonfiction articles. It’s I who am there; it’s telling
you where I’ve been, what I’ve seen, how I felt about it, what
changes it made and did not make in me.
“The way journalism is going is the way it has to go, and
if I’m any good at all, you’re going to react to what I write
with your own feelings.”

Newspapers are generally bummers becaue they promise
something they can not produce: The Truth. We can not
speak The Truth, except in the sense that we are true to our-

selves, as individuals.
Don’t believe us. But at least

read, and read carefully.

If our statements can not convince you of anything, we hope
at least they will evoke a response. By being aware of the
need for a critically subjective outlook, we hope we can increase the relevance of our writings—to your lives as well
as to ours.

As the Beatles say: “I read the news today, oh boy.”
And as they say it, they feel, you feel, “God, it is, it
could be, about me.”

point of order
by Randall T. Eng

The current controversy at New York University
over John F. Hatchett brings to light several serious
issues. The limits of academic freedom is perhaps
the most pressing.

Mr. Hatchett was director of N.Y.U.’s Martin
Luter King Jr. Afro-American Student Center. He
consistently remarked that the New York public
schools were dominated by “anti-black Jews.” He
also labelled Hubert Humphrey and Richard Nixon
“racist bastards.”
N.Y.U. President James Hester dismissed Hatchett for these remarks and others. It was noted
that Hatchett’s appointment was hasty from the
start. Following the murder of Dr. King, University
administrators desperately sought a leader for the
Afro-American center. They accepted Hatchett
without seriously inquiring into his credentials.
The confrontation which followed Hatchett’s dismissal was an unfortunate one indeed. Several
prominent Jewish organizations, noted for their
liberal records, soundly denounced Hatchett. Radical students, in the meantime, threatened to take
over the University if Hatchett was not reinstated.
Compromise was rejected by both sides and
Hatchett withdrew from the scene. He stated that
he would no longer deal with “intellectual pimps.”

Black identity is possible only with black initiative. Events similar to the Hatchett affair are inevitable in the present structure of American universities. N.Y.U.’s Afro-American Center could not
possibly live up to its objective of furthering black
culture while receiving funds from the University.
Cultural self-sufficiency is not possible without
economic self-sufficiency.
While the black student movement is encounterand other schools, the
situation for students in general is heartening.
More students than ever are sitting on academic
and administrative committees. The trend is very
visible on this campus. Hopefully, we can avert the
agonies which have split so many other schools.
ing difficulties at N.Y.U.

The Alumni Dinner Dance was apparently a
successful affair. Those who attended were for the
most part pleased that the Buffalo Athletic Club
was slighted. Some of the guests indicated that
there was a cleavage among the alumni. Many invitations were refused because of the switch in
xaciiiiics.

Dr. Feldman said that he hoped that audiences
in the future would not have to wait for the speakers “beyond a reasonable courtesy.” Good grief!
Who owes the courtesy? We pay these speakers
extremely well, both directly and indirectly. For
the taxpayer’s money, the taxpayers should receive
“courtesy.”

It is indicative of Dr. Feldman’s lack of contact
with the reality of the situation when he is unable
to see the yearly diminishing attendance at these
affairs and the irritation of all those who still
straggle in to hopefully hear something, of use
from a psychologist. A vain hope I sometimes feel
Here’s the challenge to Dr. Feldman: If I show
up on time for this symposium this week will there
be any effort made to see that I will witness a
speaker within 15 minutes? I will give you 18 to
one that I don’t.
And as for The Spectrum, try making your
“Action Line” into, real action rather than another
platform for the administration on this campus.
Nine hour wait

Panthers discriminate?
To the editor:
I wonder if the Black Panthers would let the
alumni use their headquarters for a dance—or do
they discriminate against the white race?
Jack Casey

Says O’Dwyer ‘sold-out’
To the editor:
Paul O’Dwyer is a very fine man? When I met
and spoke with him prior to his victory in the
state Democratic primary he seemed very sincere
and liberal—as are most of the old Eugene Me
Carthy supporters. However, the very connotation
“liberal” is unfortunate—unfortunate in the sense
that he will ultimately be faced with the decision
to either “sell out” or “get put.”
Paul O’Dwyer is still a member of the Demo
cratic Party. Hubert Humphrey is that party’s
presidential candidate and it is not just a joke that
O’Dwyer and Humphrey supporters are working
together on this campaign—notice who goes in and
out of the O’Dwyer headquarters on Main Street.
Paul O’Dwyer does not officially support H.H.H .
so if he is such an “uncommon man,” then why
does he remain in the Democratic Party? The war
is raging today at home and abroad and it won’t
wait for political parties to “catch on.”
Paul O’Dwyer has already “sold out”—his liter

——

Attendance at the Dinner Dance was more than
just an 'evening out. It was a display of solidarity
with the new attitudes and directions which the
University is taking.
Those who refused to accept the change to Goodyear probably feel estranged from the current mood
on campus. This is unfortunate, but if the split had
to occur, it’s better that it happened now. The
State University of Buffalo cannot continue to
stand for polarized views.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;

Though most daytime students
aware of the existence of
Millard Fillmore College, there

are

are very few who look upon it
as an educational experience having any similarities to their own.

Daytime students are not the
only individuals who wish to obtain an education. Many men and
women find it impossible to attend a university during the day.
For this reason the State University of Buffalo established the
Millard Fillmore College in the
1920s. Millard Fillmore College,
the night school, provides numerous persons an opportunity to
gain a degree, which might otherwise be impossible.

Millard Fillmore College is
made up of approximately 6000
students, ranging from the ages
of 18 to 50. Many of the individuals are married and some must
support families. Most students
attending the college are employed during the day and are
only able to come to classes and
study in the evenings. Many of
these support themselves financially and are personally paying
for their education. These students must cope with the problems of acquiring an education
and maintaining a job.

President Martin Meyerson met Tuesday morning in
Albany with State University Chancellor Samuel Gould.
While conferring with Dr. Gould he phoned The Spectrum to verify the accuracy of quotes used in a story
in Tuesday’s paper. At that time he was informed of a
statement made by Jane Cohen, president of the University Union Activities Board.
Miss Cohen had been named in the controversy over
the location of the dance when it was learned that the
t L AB negotiated with the Alumni earlier this year
concerning the availability of the Statler Hilton Ballroom,
where UUAB wished to hold a Fall Weekend dance.
Miss Cohen’s statement read

In March, 1968, the UUAB inquired as to the avail

our Fall Weekend Dance planned for
Oct. 19, 1968. The Banquet Office of the Statler Hilton
reported that the University of
Buffalo Alumni Association held a temporary reservation on the ballroom for
that evening,
Hotel as a site for

“At a subsequent meeting of the Alumni AssociaSteering Committee also in
'■arch, which I attented, the use of the Golden Ballroom
was offered to the UUAB because the Alumni Association preferred to use the Buffalo Athletic Club for their
dance. The UUAB accepted the offer because we had not

Miss Cohen also stated that the UUAB cancelled their

Dean Brutvan

talked

of the

relationship of MFC students to
the day students, and felt that
the night school student is very
much concerned with what happens on campus during the day.
He does feel a part of the campus
despite the fact that he is not
participating with his counterpart, the day student.

The MFC student cannot be

as active in movements or events
going on during the day because

his leisure time is channelled
towards getting the education he
finds necessary in our contemporary world, while his daytime
hours are, by necessity, devoted
to work or home. Yet, the night
student feels frowned upon and
in competition with the day student.

Dr. Brutvan pointed out that
these students have proven that
they achieve equally well academically as do day students;
however, a hostility between evening and day students seems to
persist—whether or not this feeling is imaginary will determine
their future relationship to one
another.

Dinner dance in Goo

The General Alumni Association has reversed its
decision to hold its Homecoming dance at the Buffalo
Athletic Club. The dance will instead be held on campus
in the Goodyear first floor cafeteria.
Pressures and recommendations from many segments
of University students, officials and alumni
preceded the
announcement of the decision Tuesday afternoon.

Realizing these difficulties facing the MFC student, how much
of an involvement with campus
affairs can he have? Dr. Donald

more College, and Jack Green,
president of the MFC Student
Association, spoke of these and
other matters facing the night

which was sent to the Alumni Association.

She concluded: “The UUAB did not, as stated by G.
Henry Owen, general chairman of the Alumni Homecoming Committee, ask the Alumni Association to patron-

ize the Buffalo Athletic Club.”

Tuesday afternoon an emergency meeting was held
between University officials and members of the Executive Board of the Alumni Association. Present were Dr.
A. Westley Rowland, vice president for University Relations and director of the Buffalo Foundation; Dr. Richard
Siggelkow, vice president for Student Affairs; President
Martin Meyerson; M. Robert Karen, president of the
Alumni Association; Robert Lipp, vice president of the
Alumni Association; Mr. Owen; David Krajewski, acting
alpmni director; and Dr. Edmond Gicewicz, chairman of
the dance.
was made by the Executive Committee of the Alumni
Association. Mr. Meyerson presented the facts of the
situation and we had to go along, because he was right,”

“The reason the decision was made to change the
location of the dance was to keep from a complete break
of the alumni from the University. Why shed blood?
we didn't want to create an incident or split the alumni.”
There has been dissension in the alumni, he admitted,
but the vote at Tuesday’s meeting was unanimous.
—

Foundation rules
“The General Alumni Association lifted..the decision
from me,” he explained. “On my own I couldn’t make
the decision.”

He revealed that prominent members of the Buffalo

community, including John Galvin and Judge Charles
Desmond, recommended that the dance location be
changed. They are members of the Buffalo Foundation,
the “ruling body of the Alumni Association.”
Mr. Owen explained that the alumni “answers to the
Foundation, and without the Foundation all the money
that the alumni receives wouldn’t come in. The Foundation has the most money to allocate to the students. The
Alumni is currently raising $100,000 for student scholarships. There is no animosity between the alumni and
students.”

Arthur Burke, a leader of the ad hoc committee
which began two weeks ago to press for withdrawal of
the dance from the BAG, indicated his reactions to the
decision: “I congratulate the Alumni Association and
the University administration on their decision. I am
frontation that would undoubtedly have ensued.
“We trust the time is not too distant when the problem of racial discrimination at the Buffalo Athletic Club
and other clubs in the Buffalo area will by virtue of its
elimination cease to be a community issue."
He indicated that the ad hoc committee tentatively
plans to distribute “educational fliers” to the alumni at
the dance. These fliers will give “information explaining
the fact that the alumni are being inconvenienced because of the racial discrimination at the BAG.”

Dr. Rowland explained that the Alumni Office will
call everyone who has bought tickets, informing them of
the change, and will also cancel the contract with the
BAG.

President Martin Meyerson will address an open
meeting of the American Association of University
Professors at 3 p.m. today in Clark Gym.
"A University Made of Men" is the topic of Mr.
Meyerson's speech. He will talk on the "issues confronting the University," according to Dr. Marvin
Feldman, president of the local chapter of the
AAUP. "His speech will be of general interest to the
University community."
After his formal presentation, Mr. Meyerson will
answer any questions from the floor. Dr. Feldman
indicated that this will be the first time that the
president has spoken at this type of meeting. "He
hopes to have a dialogue with the entire audience."
Since it is expected to be a large meeting, ground
rules will be set to insure that questioners will "ask
questions and not make speeches. The questioners
may ask a second qualifying question if they wish."
Dr. Feldman emphasized that the meeting is
open to all students.

“Not all the' poor people are
black: there are also poor whites,”
he asserted. “However, they hold
the distinction that they are not
poor because they are white.”

Civil rights approach
Discussing approaches to civil
rights, Mr. Bond said; “There are
some who believe non-violence

will pour the nation’s attention on
the ghetto.”

“It was felt that the success of
non-violence in India was that it
had a conscience. The conscience
of America is said to be none,”
he continued.
Mr. Bond feels that a national
alternative is absent in the present presidential election. He explained that he voted for President Johnsop in 1964 as the lesser
of two evils because of LBJ’s promise to prevent a wider .war. Re
ferring to his choice in 1968, he
explained: “I wouldn’t want to
vote for HHH considering him as
the lesser of three evils and then
be proven wrong.”
When asked directly if he
would support Mr. Humphrey, Mr.
Bond said: “I wouldn’t tell people to vote for the Vice President
when I'm not prepared to do so

myself.”

He expressed doubt whether
the Democratic party would undergo any great change in the
next four years by citing the similar attitudes of the Republican
Party in 1964 and 1968.

McCarthy write-in
Mr. Bond was asked what he
felt the primary effect of a writein for Senator McCarthy would
be. “It would give him a good
feeling,” he replied.
Describing Governor \yallace as
the “little hillbilly Hitler of Alabama,” Mr, Bond asserted that
“he has legitimized racism.” He
feels that Governor Wallace at
least has proven that a grass roots
campaign could gather considerable support.
He was hopeful that a strong
political movement of the people
could be built in the' South and
specifically in his home state of
Georgia. “That’s how I’m going to
spend my time,” he said, “If another McCarthy thing comes, 1
don’t know what I’ll do.”

The Spectrum

�between the lines
by Robert P. Sawicki
Spectrum Staff Reporter

The athletic fee question is over for
now; but, as a closing note, athletics as it
is organized in America is the most sickening, perverted form of uselessness ever
propagated anywhere, at any time. Presidential heir-apparent Richard Nixon
comes to town and draws 20,000; Wallace’s
rally brought out 14,000; H. H. H. spoke
to maybe 2000 downtown when he was
here; but the Buffalo Bills, they pack War
Memorial Stadium with 40,000 people
every week, even though they’re in the
midst of a second horrible season in a

row.

The people who voted for the mandatory athletic fee must have felt that athletics was such a good cause that everyone should be able to fork up a little
bread to keep Urich, and Peelle smiling.
If this is the case, then no one should
find any fault with a mandatory fee five
times as great for starving Biafrans, Vietnamese refugees, or even a more established charity, (Heart Fund, etc.). This
would indeed be an impressive precedent
and an important reordering of priorities.

Even at the final hour, Czechoslovak
newspapers emphasized the brighter side
of the treaty
that the bulk of Warsaw

and a contingent of between 23,000 and
70,000 left behind to protect the nation
from alleged German revenge-seekers.

The Soviet news agency Tass reported
from Prague that the treaty spelled out
the terms for “the temporary stay” of
Soviet troops. A similar “temporary”
agreement stationed sizable Soviet forces
in Hungary after the 1956 anti-Communist uprising and they are still there.
Tass said Kosygin had a friendly, comradely talk with President Ludvig Svoboda
at Hradcany Castle, after arriving to sign
the treaty.
Kosygin arrived from Moscow, however,

name is synonymous with the reform

he does not hold government office. The
official Czechoslovak news agency CTK

bulk of Warsaw Pact forces, leaving an
estimated 23,000 to 70,000 of the current

along the frontier with West Germany.

The mood of the young apparently
changed with the Salt Lake speech and
with the realization that Humphrey’s defeat would probably put Nixon into the
White House. Before that, Humphrey was
almost continuously heckled by antiwar

Since then, however, the hecklers have
almost disappeared, even on college campuses, and have been replaced by students willing to vote and work with the
vice president.

curbs on the power of unions in the
next Congress. Hartley’s pitch: Unions
are to blame for riots in the ghettos,

unemployment, which caused the uprisings.

There was a big splash in all the papers
four weeks ago when the third Negro
ever to become a general made a variety
of statements to the effect that the armed
services led the nation in equal opportunity, integration, and the rest of that
bag. There was not such a big splash
when Major Lavell Merritt, also a Negro,
said the United States Army was a “racist
organization.” About himself he wrote
that “I could get a good efficiency report
from a racist, because I have been a good
nigger," in the eight-page statement
handed to newsmen. About other Negro
officers Merritt stated: “The black military officer group is the largest collection
of identifiable accommodationists,” and
defined that as being "a synonym for
Uncle Tom.” After 20 years in the service,
this man’s mind certainly was not messed
by military propaganda, was it?

Paris talks still stalemated
by

Joe Castrilli

Spectrum Staff Reporter

To much of the world, the Paris peace
negotiations have apparently taken on the
sad appearance of a marathon series of
recriminations by the United States and

That issue is the relative strength and
political legitimacy of the Saigon government and of the National Liberation Front,
the political arm of the Vietcong.
It would seem that the two chief negotiators, having decided that the first phase
of the negotiations have gone as far as
they're going to go, are now attempting
to move to the next phase.
That is, whether the Saigon government

The standard American reply is usually
made by Ambassador Harriman: “The
United States will stop the bombing only
if Hanoi gives some guarantee it is ready
to order a reciprocal de-escalation in the
war and join the United States in moving
seriously toward peace.”
Recently the negotiators, seeing the
fruitlessness of continued rhetoric on a
bombing halt, have begun to move toward
the important political issue at the heart
of the talks.

As one American diplomat suggested:
“The solution of political roles in the
negotiations will foreshadow the ultimate
political settlement of the war, and both
sides will move very cautiously.”
It would seem that as a result of President Johnson’s statement Wednesday that
“there has been no breakthrough” that
basically changes his present Vietnam war
policy, the Paris peace talks ,will remain
in their present state of suspended animation.

�Journalist

excuses network’s

national convention coverage
Responding to the charge that
the “CBS Evening News” should
be called the “CBS Editorial,”
news commentator Harry Reasoner disclosed that the network is
in the process of re-evaluating its
coverage of the Democratic National Convention.
Mr, Reasoner spoke before

400
persons in Rockwell Hall at State
University College at Buffalo
Monday.

Mail concerning Columbia
Broadcasting System’s convention
coverage was 100 times the regular volume, he reported, The ratio of unfavorable mail was 11
to one, Mr, Reasoner said in the
question-and-answer period following his speech.
He attempted to clarify the
important distinction between a
news analysis and an editorial:
“A reporter must give an opinion, but it must not be biased,"
he explained.
In his speech on “Campaign
’68,” Mr. Reasoner emphasized
that this “has not been the best
year” for the journalistic analyses
accompanying presidential elections.

LBJ in '68
The well-known journalist contrasted today’s political situation
with predictions of a year ago.
At that time George Romney
was thought to have virtually
captured the Republican presidential nomination. Richard M.
Nixon was reported to be existing in a state of political limbo.

Dean

One year ago newscasters predicted with a high degree of confidence that President Johnson
would glide to victory this year.
They also predicted that no serious opposition to the Administration’s foreign policies would arise
in either party.
Mr. Reasoner commented that
1968 was as disordered a year as
he had ever witnessed. He sees
1968 as the year when “destiny
has exploded” on the American
electorate. This year “we are
seeing the first open evidence
of the acceleration of change,”
All of the achievements of the
past 20 years have come crashing
down on the populace, giving
them a sense of loss and bewilderment. He attributed George
Wallace’s great appeal to this

a Humphrey victory, or at least
a Nixon defeat.
“The Chicago Tribune would
do well not to set ‘Nixon Elected’

in type beforehand,” concluded
Mr. Reasoner.
Although unwilling to predict
the election’s results, Reasoner
did make an assessment of each
candidate’s potential as President.
Mr. Reasoner said a Nixon Administration would be difficult
to forecast. “Richard Nixon is a
very smart and cagey man who
has spent six years planning; I
just don’t know, his course is
just not clear."
The Presidency of Hubert Humphrey, he is certain, would continue large government expenditures in its attempt to solve social problems. He also feels a
Humphrey Administration would
be more dovish on the war.
“It is quite clear,” said Mr.
Reasoner, “that George Wallace
is aiming at 1970. This is not an
all or nothing year for him.”
Expressing the conviction that
the former Governor of Alabama
has no chance to become President this year, Reasoner said
that Mr. Wallace would like to
elect 20 or 30 men to Congress
in 1970. From there he could
work up to 192.
To another member of the
audience, Mr. Reasoner expressed
his skepticism about the “domino

unrest.

The unease which has affected
the young has also come to bear
on the middle class, he believes.
“There is a feeling,” said Mr,
Reasoner, “that we have gotten
ourselves involved in a world
situation since World War I
where nothing seems to go right
for anyone except Israel.”
The political system and its
custodians are not, in Reasoner’s
view, responsive to the pressures
of today.

Nixon defeat possible
After throwing the floor open
to questions, the speaker declined
to make a solid election predic-

theory” as applied to Southeast

tion. He did say, however, that if
New York State becomes a “tossup” state, there is a chance for

Asia. The present Administration,
he said, is engaged “in the right
policy in the wrong place.”

“Let’s get it together!” was the key phrase repeated by
members of the Black Student Union this past week during
an “open mike” session, while a throng of 1500 to 1800

people awaited the arrival of Eldridge Cleaver’s substitute
speaker outside the Fillmore Room.
“Let us black students get
it together. Don’t sit on your
asses and let the white folks
do it for us,” one speaker
first to his black

brothers but second to his
white brothers. The message
was repeated by almost every
black speaker at the meeting.

Black pride
Black students at this school

are proud of their blackness, and

along with being proud they take
great pride in any work undertaken to improve the lives of
black people. But they feel that
their pride has been stepped on,
trampled over and put out the
back door by well-meaning but
aggressive whites. One of the
main gripes aired this past week
was that since the beginning of
the semester, any program set

black students is that this just

shouldn’t be.

In particular they feel that:
The selling of books by and
about black people at the AfroAsian bookstore should have been
put in charge of black students
who naturally know more about
the texts and the authors, simply
because they are black. White
students selling black books
doesn’t make sense.
There is a disproportionate
number of white students involved
with the tutoring programs of
the Community Aid Corps and
other organizations. It is the

blacks than any other race or

organization takes must be decided by a majority of the members, approximately 12 in number, Second, no one can use the
organization's name unless a majority vote to do so.

reaching college

Concerned with community
The organization’s main intention is to reach the community
through a number of organizations such as the VFW, the American Legion and local high
schools, although speaking engagements are not limited to any

one organization.

The VPE uses these organizations to spread their concepts, but
it is in no way affiliated with any.
In fact they are opposed to organizations such as VFW and the
American Legion because these
organizations have not spoken out
against the war.

David Wachtel., spokesman for
the organization!; explained that
the VPE is a “grass roots” movement with only one main principle, complete opposition to the
Vietnam war. All other specifics
related to the organization are
left to the individual.
Through speaking engagements
at local high schools, the VPE
hopes to reach pre inducted students “to stir the consciousness
of the students in respect to the
war,” stated Mr. Wachtel. Although the organization does not
openly advocate ‘draft dodging’ as
such, it hopes to convey to stu-

dents what lies ahead for them
regarding the war.

No affiliations
The VPE refuses to affiliate
with such on-campus groups such
as SDiS and the Peace and Freedom Party, not because of opposing beliefs but because “we don’t
need the label of other groups.”
The organization has not taken
a stand on a Presidential candi-

same type of advertisement in the

it meets with the same response

the war for the same reasons as

Dr. Anthony Lorenzetti, associate vice president
and director of the Office of Student Affairs and
Services, has reaffirmed the existing rule forbidding
the consumption of alcoholic beverages at unauthorized campus activities. This action was necessitated
after he received several unfavorable reports concerning student behavior at Saturday's football
game. Dr. Lorenzctti indicated that such action
might be a detriment to the University's attempt
to obtain a liquor license.

�Socialist candidate for House
assails Presidential hopefuls
by Rod Gere
Spectrum

Stmt/

Reporter

Peter Buch, Socialist Worker’s
Party candidate for Congress in
New York’s 19th district, opened
his

appearance

Lounge Monday

in the Haas
afternoon with a

blast at the major presidential

contenders.

“The 1968 election campaign is
shaping up as an insult to the
intelligence of the American voters. Never has the level of public
discussion been so low.”
Asserting that the causes of
this nation’s discontent are deeply rooted in social factors, Mr.
Buch denounced the three frontrunners and rejected the notion
that there was any “lesser evil”
among them.

“We have Hubert Humphrey,

Johnson’s trained seal, calling for

a politics of joy in a period when
there is less joy than ever before.” He’s the one who tried to
out-McCarthy McCarthy in the
1950s just to prove that liberals
can be good Americans."

“We have Richard Nixon who’s
based his career on witch-hunts,
the smear and big business.”
Mr. Buch then lashed out at
George Wallace, and his alleged
statement that there was not a

dime’s worth of difference bethe two major parties.
“He’s right,” said Mr. Buch, “but
there is little more than that betwen him and the national parties.
Wallace represents that wing of
the ruling class that wants to
avoid giving even the minimum
concessions the liberal Democrats
make to preserve the system.”
tween

“No major party candidate of
even Paul O’Dwyer
—advocates immediate w i t hdrawal from Vietnam. Concessions made on the domestic front
are only verbal. When the smoke
clears, the ghettos and the poverty are still there.”
Mr. Buch linked all three presidential aspirants as defenders of
the property system. “Despite
some liberal rhetoric,” he continued, “all of them oppose black
control of black cities and have
no differences on police prac-

any kind—not

present administration is waging
a “pop-gun war on poverty” and
is “managing to sell the world
that we are against poverty, for
peace and are protecting nations
like the Dominican Republic
against subversion.”
He explained the 'Wallace phenomenon as arising from discontent of the working and middle
class who see their tax dollars
spent for touted liberal projects
but see no results. “These
people,” he said, “blame the
blacks and the ppor. From this
frustration Wallace draws his reaction.”

Mr. Buch chided middle-class
and student movements aimed at
taking over the Democratic Party
by working within. He urged they
consider the history of the labor
movement. “They moved in,” he
said, “and now instead of taking
over the party they’re subservient
to it.” He added: “The real program of both parties is the preservation of both systems by any
means necessary."

“The lesser evil theory,” he
continued, “only gets you back
into the system. It keeps you as
a ping-pong ball. Your direction
is controlled by two paddles
which have been shifting to the
right. By 1972,” he concluded,
“we may be choosing between
Wallace and LeMay for the lesser
of two evils.”

strated last June against the American presence in Vietnam.
“These students, to their own
amazement, were attacked by
their own cops for protesting
against an imperialist war.”
“These students,” he went on,
“rejected both the bureaucratic
centralism of their government,
and the free market innovations
of that government.
“The students were seeking
basic socialist objectives of selfmanagement, with the whole
working class participating in
planning.”

Mr. Buch ventured that the

question being debated throughout the world today is, “How will
the ruling class deal with the
rising of this working class as a
whole?”
Mr. Buch stated that the Socialist Working Party’s two most immediate concerns are U.S. with-

drawal from Vietnam and black
control of black communities.
“However, we must deal with the
system as well as its effects,” he
maintained.
Mr. Buch saw his party’s campaign as having an educational
value. “Socialists,” he concluded,
“must make socialism a living
presence in this country. It must
be presented as a liberating force
and utilize what creacks appear in

“For this to be a success, the

capitalism cannot solve the economic and social problems which
exist in the United States today.

Appearing in Haas Lounge, Mr.
Blomen stressed the need for American citizens to vote in the upcoming November election and

The ideal system, according to
Mr. Blomen, would be to have every type of job in the United
States classified as a certain industry. His example was an education industry which would be
composed of anyone connected
with work in schools, from teachers to maintenance help. In such
a system, he said “everyone would
be assured the value of his toil”
and industrial democracy could
overcome the political demarcation which now hinders it.

Racial unrest was then discussed along with the “pockets of
poverty” which exist throughout
the nation. Mr. Blomen said that
unless voters support the change
that the Socialist Party has to offer, the conditions of racial strife
and poverty will definitely be-

The Socialist Labor Party,
which has entered Presidential
candidates in every election since
1892, has also nominated George
S. Taylor for Vice President. The
goal of the Party is a classless

Mr. Blomen discussed the conditions which he said denoted the
necessity for a change in the political structure of this country.
He cited the war in Vietnam as
the number one cause of national
unrest. However, Mr. Blomen said
that under the prevalent political
system, regardless of the outcome
of the November election, there
is “no intention whatsoever of
pulling out" of Vietnam. He said,
in reference to the millions of
American dollars being poured
into the war, that the situation
was part of a capitalistic scheme,
and ending the war would harm
the economy of the country.

Calls education ‘machine-like’

Theater Reviewer

It’s now one year after the first
Nickel Theater was presented by
the Student Theater Guild.
You might expect that the
forces of inflation would initiate
a switch to maybe a Dime or Twobit Theater, but no—the price is
the same, the actors different,
and the whole thing is still worth
the price of admission.
Again the skits spanned from
great to anything but.
The eight excursions into inanity were initiated by a scene
from Noel Coward’s “Blithe
Spirit.” This scene in which Elvira first appears to Charles is a
success mainly because the three
actors work so well together.
“Humulus the Mute” by Jean
Anouilh and Jean Aurenche give
us a little taste of absurdity. Carole Forman was funny as the unusual grandmother, as was Leonard Pape as the stuttering tutor.
Such special effects as the organ, the chanting monks and
other technical effects throughout

the evening were a welcome sup
plement.
Two of the Nichols and May
selections, “Telephone” and “A
Little More Gauze,” were moderately entertaining, but could have
been funnnier.

Ambitious undertaking
The guild also produced a selection from Wilde’s “The Importance of Being Earnest,” which jn
itself is an ambitious undertaking
due to the immediate problems of
costumes, accents and intonations.
The scene was certainly well executed.
In “Cocktail Piano,” Vicki Robbins and Steven Meltzer are delightful and appropriate as the office boss and the New York City
working girl naivette. The scene
is enjoyable despite the banal
script.

Fortunately one skit stands out
from all the others by cleverly relating the theme of the evening
and by exposing some new acting
ability.

The skit is “Constantinople
Smith,” and the acting ability is

Last and least was “Only Ten

not have even lasted that long.
Although the Nickel Theater is

designed as

a teaching experience, and as such is an excellent
innovation, the audience should
not be forgotten as it was in
“Only Ten Minutes."
Possibly the evening suffered
somewhat because of all comedy
stuff. However this seems like a
minor difficulty since the humor
was so diverse—at least ope
slightly serious vignette would
have been in order.
It was certainly a nickel's

Roberta Peters to

Kooper predicts rock groups
will give way to jam sessions
by Stephan Schnarch
Spectrum Stall Reporter

Early in the current blues revival, a group called The-Blues
Project was making sounds in
New York. It soon became evident that the driving force behind the group was organist A1
Kooper. The group broke up when
Kooper left, taking guitarist Steve
Katz with him. Keeper's next venture was Blood, Sweat and Tears
—one of the first pop groups to
follow the Chicago-based older
blues men in the use of a brass
section.

Personality clashes soon befell
the group, and Kooper departed
taking trumpet player Randy
Brecker with him. At this point
Kooper began to speak his mind,
and the first notion of a rock pool
was put forth.
Keeper's ideas call for the abolition of rock groups as we know
them. Concerts and recordings
would consist of informal groups
of musicians in what would
amount to a jam. Uniqueness for
the musicians, as well as the audience is the objective. Many a

several times a week.
Kooper’s ideas are being

suc-

cessfuly enacted. I recently went
to see Paul Butterfield at the Cafe
Au Go-Go, and was pleasantly surprised to see Kooper and Brecker
appear on stage. The set lasted

about three hours, and it was apparent that the musicians weje

enjoying it. Each number resulted
in an improvisation, each moving
in a different direction. An unanticipated outgrowth of Kooper’s
ideas took place. Someone in the
audience had brought their own
harp and flute, and by the end
of the night he was up next to
the stage, welcomed into the jam
by the other performers.

Super-Mtsion
A more tangible result of all

this is the recent “super-session”
album featuring Kooper, Mike
Bloomfield, and Steve Stills.
Bloomfield is at his best since the
album with
“What’s Shakin’
Paul Butterfield, and there is no
trace of the Electric Flag mistake.
Stills’ guitar work on the Dylan
”

and Donovan cuts is a notable improvement over his work with the
now defunct Buffalo Springfield.
Kooper’s keyboard work is now
fully developed, and it is interesting to trace him on his various
albums.
His rock pool ideas are not new.
He has played back-up for Tom
Rush, along with Roosevelt Gook
—alias Blind Boy Grunt, nee Bob
Zimmerman, now Bob D y 1 a n—and teamed up with Bloomfield
on a few of Dylan’s albums. His
vocal style has improved—his
wheezy voice and excellent use of
falsetto are perfectly suited to
his music.
Kooper’s ideas have f i r ml y
taken root among other performers. In this way, the personality
clashes that destroy so many fine
groups can be avoided. Artists
would be free to experiment—not
being expected to play hit songs
in a manner faithful to any previous recording.
The Fillmore West advertised
the end of September as “Supersession-Kooper, Bloomfield and
Friends.”

that an average of 200 Millard
Fillmore College students transfer to the day classes each semester. It usually takes an evening
student about eight years to receive his degree—which makes it
quite apparent that these students do have a very strong ambition and drive to acquire their

ties for its students, geared to
their special interests. They plan
social and educational functions
for any night student who desires
to attend. Mr, Green talked about
one problem the evening student
faces in relation to making contacts with other evening students
—the age difference. Since the
age gap is quite large among the
night students, it is difficult for
them to communicate with one
another. The day student, of
course, not only shares similar
background and interests with
his colleagues, but is usually in
the same age bracket.

From job to school
One of the reasons why , an
individual wishes to continue' his
education is the growing need in
our society for a degree. Mr.
Green pointed out that some of

the MFC students were graduated from high school unaware
of the significance of a college
education. After working for a
period of years, they were confronted with technological advances to which they could not
contribute because of their lack
of a college degree. Realizing
that this was their problem, they
returned to school in order to
receive further education.
Millard Fillmore College has a
student association which represents its students and their problems. President Green is hopeful
that its goal of a council consisting of evening and day students
will be realized sometime in the
future.
This council would deal with
the problems of both types of
students and might try coordinating activities which would bring
the night and day schools closer
together. Though the differences
between night and day students
are great—the average MFC student is 27, married and has two
children—there are enough similarities between them to offer
hope for such a union.

English Dept. vs.. MFC
One of the major problems facing the College now is the plight
of the English program. The issue came to a head this past year

and stirred the greatest controversy MFC has seen in many

years.

It seems that the English Department of the College wishes
to eliminate its own curriculum—it was decided that degrees would
no longer be granted in English
to MFC students. However, attempts are being made to arrange a compromise between the
department and the University
administration. Only time will tell
what will befall the evening English major. But what the crisis
has shown very clearly, to the
surprise of many, is that MFC
students can unite to confront
what they wish to change in the
University as passionately

some decisions are relatively unimportant.

Where you pul your engineering
talent to work is not.

As you contemplate one of the most important decisions of your life, we invite you to consider a
career at Pratt &amp; Whitney Aircraft. Here, you will find wide-open opportunities for professional growth
with a company that enjoys an enviable record of stability in the dynamic atmosphere of aerospace
technology.

We select our engineers and scientists carefully. Motivate them well. Give them the equipment and
facilities only a leader can provide. Offer them company-paid, graduate-education opportunities.
Encourage them to push into fields that have not been explored before. Keep them reaching for a
little bit more responsibility than they can manage. Reward them well when they do manage it.

as

their daytime counterparts.
This University is made up of
night and day students. We are
all here for the same end and can
help one another in trying to
understand our different dilemmas. Both Jack Green and Dean
Brutvan echo the feeling that it
is unfortunate that day and night
students are disunited because of
different interests, variance in
ages and the different problems
that each group faces.

Services wilt investigate all questions, all complaints, and answer them -individually.
Action Line will include questions and replies of general interest which appear to be
pertinent to the student body. The name of the individual originating the inquiry Is
kept confidential under all circumstances.

Make a note of the number: 831-5000 for Action Line.
Q,; On what grounds can the Housing Office refuse to give a student his linen allotment if the student is a day late?
A.: It is necessary to separate housing areas and maintain distinct distribution times to disperse the linens because of the very
large number of students on linen contracts. If a schedule were not

developed, i.e., students dropped in at their convenience, not only
would more staff be required, but it would be very difficult to stock
for sporadic demands of linen. If your time assignment is a difficult
one to meet regularly, contact Mr. Cliff Wilson in the Housing Office
and he will assign you another time spot. Or, should you suddenly
find yourself pressed for time and unable to exchange your linen as
scheduled, a friend can do this for you. He must, however, present
your I.D. card to verify the pickup.
Q.: Will there be an Academic Honors dinner this year?
A.: Yes. The present plan is to have one in the spring, funds permitting.
Q.; Is it possible to earn two different degrees at the same time,
i.e., a BA and BFA and graduate in four years?
A.: Dr. Claude E. Welch, dean of University College, stated that
“students seeking two baccalaureate degrees are searching both for a
liberal degree, the BA, and a professional degree, the BFA or BS.
The requirements for the two degrees differ. The fields of concentration in the professional degrees tend to be highly structured, and
demand a higher portion of a student’s lime than similar majors in
the liberal arts areas.
“Since the earning of a second baccalaureate degree is construed
as gaining additional professional achievement, an undergraduate
seeking such a degree should complete 32 hours
one year’s work —i
beyond the 128 hours required for the first baccalaureate degree, while
satisfying all requirements set for the two.
“By means of college credit examinations, advanced placement,
summer work and other means, an undergraduate can achieve both
baccalaureate degrees in four years.”
Q.: How many students are in the freshman class and what is the
breakdown by sex?
A.; As of Oct. 1, 1968, 2197 students have matriculated directly
from high school. The specific breakdown by sex, however, is not yet
available. It is anticipated that the percentage figures will be about
the same as last year, i.e., 55% men and 45% women.
Q.: Can something be done in the Baird parking lot to identify
areas or sections to help the student locate his parked car?
A.: Mr. Eugene Murray, Chief of Security, agreed that an identification system would be helpful, particularly in Baird which is a
large lot. He will develop a color code and paint the light standards.
Q.; Are there ever any sales of books discarded by Lockwood or
Harriman Libraries?
A.: The University Library has not as yet reached the point of
having many “old” books it does not need or want. Volumes damaged
or worn beyond repair are destroyed. Unnecdcd duplicates are exchange with other universities, or are donated to less fortunate institutions, both in this country and abroad, which are struggling to
build up their libraries. In some cases, where the volume is of value,
credit is established with a dealer and other titles badly needed for
the State University of Buffalo library are thereby acquired.

�Bulls seek fourth

victory

Yillanova here for Homecoming;
Ed Perry to start for Mason
the reserved use of the passing
game after Perry’s entrance.

Spectrum

Staff Reporter

Tomorrow afternoon is Homecoming Day and the State
University of Buffalo Bulls will host the Yillanova Wildcats
in Rotary Field with the kickoff scheduled to be 1:30 p.m.
This annual encounter with the Wildcats is beginning to
become a great traditional rivalry.
Yillanova was hard hit by
graduation when 23 seniors
left via the cap and gown
route. When head football
coach Jack Gregory labels
this as “more or less a rebuilding year” he means it,
for only 14 lettermen return
from last season’s won-4 lost6 squad.
In Gregory’s first season, four
of the losses were decided by a
total of 14 points. Needless to
say, the Wildcats would like to
better their present 2-2 record
by making Buffalo their third

victim.
One of Villanova’s biggest losses was the graduation of Bill
Andrejko. Andrejko led the nation in pass completion percentage last year and set a new
school record for scoring passes
in a season with 12 touchdown
aerials.

Co-captain Sodaski at QB

This season the Wildcats will

be relying

on

co-captain

Johtf

Sodaski, a 6-foot 2-inch, 205pound senior quarterback. Sodaski was switched from a roving
linebacker to td signal caller.
Last week in the Wildcats’ 28-15
loss to Boston College, Sodaski
scored a touchdown from the oneyard line and passed to halfback
John Stopper for the two-point
conversion.
Villanova’s halfback positions
are set with co-captain 5-foot 10inch, 175-pound speedster Frank
Boal and 5-foot 11-inch, 180-pound
Billy Walik, Boal and Walik were
the Wildcats’ one-two scoring
punch last season. Both are running and pass-receiving threats.
Against Boston College, Boal
took a punt and raced 72 yards
for a touchdown. Five-foot 8-inch,
198-pound junior Mickey Kerins
from Niagara Falls fills out the
backfield at the fullback position.
One of Villanova’s bright spots
on offense is 6-foot 1-inch, 198pound junior split end Tom Boyd.
Boyd set a host of new school
receiving records as a sophomore
and could be a definite All-East
prospect in the future. Last season Boyd had 35 receptions
Charles D’Agostini, at 6 feet and
121 pounds, was converted from
his fullback position to the tight
end spot.
The interior offensive line was
weakened by losses at tackle,

guard and

center. Experienced

Frank Bogle, 6 feet 2
245 pounds, returns as a
starter while Mike Mcis the top returnee at
guard, who measures 6 foot 1
inch and weighs 235 pounds.

senior
inches,
tackle
Donald

Defense weak in spots
Defensively, Yillanova had to
shore up the end and linebacking

positions. Inexperienced junior

Rich Brezski, 6 feet, 209 pounds,
and senior Bill Warke, 6 feet,
219 pounds, will probably get
the starting nod at the defensive
end positions.
However, the Wildcat defensive
line boasts of one of the best
tackle combinations in the East
with All-American candidate 6foot 7-inch, 290-pound Rich Moore
and 6-foot 3-inch, 247-pound John
Treacy anchoring the Wildcat
line.

“Mountain” Moore is Villanova’s strongest All-American
hope since A1 Atkinson, who is
now playing with the New York
Jets. Treacy has already drawn
admiring glances from professional scouts. Coach Gregory is
expecting a great season from
this dynamic duo.
Wildcat linebacking seems to
be one of the weakest positions.
Junior Fran Auch, 6 feet 1 inch,
212 pounds, has claimed his spot
as right linebacker. The “Cat"
rover will probably be filled by
senior Mike Rizzo, 5 feet 10
inches, 183 pounds.
The defensive backfield will
be filled by senior Dennis Kelly,
a two-year veteran, and sophomore Gene Arthur.
Coach Gregory lauds his team
as one that could pull a few
surprises in attempting to better
last year’s record. In Moore, Boyd,
Sodaski and Treacy, the Wildcats
have four players of exceptional
quality.

The

sophomores along

with the veterans have to come
through with errorless football
in order for Villanova to finish
above the .500 mark.

Perry to call signals
Last Saturday afternoon Buffalo fans were stunned by the
loss of starting quarterback Denny Mason. However, Ed Perry,
a 6-foot 3-inch, 205-pound sophomore signal-caller came up with
the big play and sparked the
Bulls to their third victory.
Against Delaware, Buffalo’s total offense was 406 yards despite

Senior tailback Kenny Rutkowski gained 163 yards in 20 carries and was selected to the Eastern Collegiate American Conference team this week for his workhorsemanship in the Delaware
game. Rutkowski scored two of
the Bulls’ four touchdowns, one

on a 43-yard scamper.

Rutko’s second touchdown of
the afternoon was scored after
he took a lateral from tight end
Paul Lang and ran another 45
yards for the score.
Defensively, Bulls’ ends Tom
Murphy, Prentice Henley and
Tom Vigneau, along with the rest
of the defensive troop, did an
excellent job stopping the running game and rushing the passer. Len Nixon came up with some

fine pass coverage also.
Buffalo will have to contain
Villanova’s split T offense. With
the Wildcats’ speedy halfbacks,
their quick and agile quarterback
and strong split end, the visitors’
offense will be hard to stop.
The Bulls’ offensive line will
have a busy afternoon tangling
with defensive tackles Moore and
Treaey.

The stars of the Series were
Lou Brock and Bob Gibson of the

have been a disasterous series
with a fine full game performance
to even up the series at three

The pinnacle of their base runfrustrations was reached in
the sixth inning of the last game
when Brock was thrown out on a
questionable call at second base
after he had taken a wide lead
off first base. After Javier lined
out hard to Stanley, Flood proceeded to collect his second safety of the afternoon, only to be
picked off at first base.

Curt Flood, normally the best
defensive centerfielder in the
game, also had lapses in the field,
and these proved to be quite costly. In addition to misplaying
Northrup’s drive which opened
the scoring gates for the Tigers
in the finale, Curt allowed at
least two other balls to reach
ground after first touching his
glove.

So the Tigers became the third

�strike-out
by Daniel Edeltnen
Sitting in a small, dark, dingy office in the bowels of the campus
fortress known as Clark Gym, cross-country coach Emery Fisher interrupted a conversation recently when he saw one of his crosscountry runners unexpectedly come into the office. The coach gave
him a big hello and asked him why he was out for practice on a day
when he wasn't supposed to be. The runner replied that he got out of
class early so he decided to come out and do some running. Turning
back to his guest, Emery Fisher remarked: “The guy didn’t have to
come out today and I would never have known the difference because
he always misses Monday’s practice because of a late class. He came
out because he likes to run.” With that, he sat back smiling, confident
in the knowledge that here was someone who enjoys running cross-

country.

Cross-country, for those uninitiated, is a distance race of 4% to
6 grueling miles over any type of
terrain in all types of weather.
It is a team sport with the first
five men finishing for either side
counted in the scoring. Scoring
is based on a person’s place in the
finish. For example, if a runner
finishes third in the race he receives three points. The team
with the fewest points wins the

—VPI

meet.

Tony Nicotera
Cross Country team’s 1966 MVP
is shown practicing lor the grueling meets to come.

At the State University of Buffalo cross-country is considered
a minor sport and, as a result,
none of the runners on the team
receive any sort of financial help.
As is the case with other minor
sports at this school, the schedule
is, to say the least, very ambitious
in the respect that the Bulls are
forced to compete against schools
like Cleveland State and Syracuse
where cross-country is deemed
important enough to merit schol-

arships.
Recruiting is non-existent. At the beginning of the year, the
coaching staff looks over the records of the incoming freshmen and
asks those who have done some cross-country to come out for the
team. This year’s freshman team presently consists of six members,
two of whom have never run before.
The squad averages about 75 to 100 miles per week at the beginning of the fall campaign. During the season, they cut this down to
only about 20 miles. A typical practice might consist of running the
freshman course, a distance of about 2,8 miles, all out for time. Then
the team would jog back over the track and finish with six to eight
220-yard sprints which comes to another two miles of running.
At this point in the season, already marred by three consecutive
losses, the team is being paced by senior captain Jim Hughes, sophomore Eddie Fuchs, and 1966 MVP Tony Nicotera who holds the school
record of 27:18 for the Cleveland Park course.
Next Tuesday, Buffalo is hosting a meet with Rochester, Fredonia
and Geneseo on the Cleveland Park course at 4 p.m. As Coach Fisher
says, it would be nice if more than five people would show up who

don’t have to be there.

much of a loss for that team to

continued pressure was applied by the ad hoc commit-

tee to lower-level University administrators; comprehensive
demonstration plans were formulated;
public statements made by alumni officials revealed
their defiantly alienated and arrogant position; the ad hoc
committee and The Spectrum suggested relocation of the
dance in Goodyear cafeteria;
President Meyerson met with Chancellor Gould; at an
emergency meeting later in the day he "convinced” the alumni of the desirability of relocating the dance in Goodyear.
The decision represents a slight, but significant, shift in
the University’s relationship with the Buffalo community.
Clearly, the Old Guard Bulls have been rebuffed. Let’s hope
the influence of the younger alumni increases, and the political strings attached to community alumni support will gradually be cut, so we can attach our own.
The action was initiated by a small group of recent graduates and amplified by student support; it won its desired results with no compromise and no physical confrontation. For
this reason alone, it is an important “first” at this University. It stands as a model, not merely of “student power,”
but perhaps more importantly, of how the University community and progressive, important segments of the Buffalo
community can join forces on a given issue.

Presidential debate
out from hiding, walking among his flock
The good president will speak with us this afternoon.
Better late than never. We will come and reason together—reason and come together? If we’re lucky, we’ll reach some
sort of participatory orgasm. If things proceed more awkwardly, it will at least be stimulating.
All of us should attend.
Mr. Meyerson has many questions to answer, and many
explanations to give. What are his views on campus recruit-

Rap with ollie
by Oliver D. Townes
Revolution is a step that is in the minds of radical extremists. What 1 wonder is if a man thinks
in terms of revolution, what are his actual battle
plans? On what grounds does he want to fight?
What will be his chosen weapon? Where does he
get his support? Who will be his foot-soldiers? Who
will be his general, colonel, secretary of defense?
Who are his allies? How strong are his enemies?
After he has overthrown his enemies, how will he
build his system? And who will head the leadership
of the system.
—

Well, 1 heard of and met a group of young radicals who seem to want to take things to an extreme; they are known as the Black Panther Party.
Last week they came to campus with their philosophy for handling the main domestic issue of our
day—the unchaining of the black man. •
If we, the black people, had chains around our
necks and had our hands tied and had to live in
camps like slaves, then right away I would say:
“Let’s have a revolution, brothers,” But we don’t
have chaines around our necks; we have chains in
our
We can't fight our way out of mental
bondage; we have to think Our way out. To me,
our battle plans should be: First of all, to learn
the truth of the problem and try to implement necessary means for action. Every time we, the blacks,
show any type of physical force in freeing ourselves
from our mental bondage, we end up fighting the
police force and then the National Guard. So as we
look at reality we can’t win. My mother has always
told me to make sure whenever I fight, to know
how strong the enemy is, but first of all to really
know who my enemy is.
•

•

I have been called many names for speaking my
mind and how I feel; and I don’t give a damn what
people call me, whether it’s Uncle Tom, or Ollie
the white man’s lover. Believe me, 1 love because I
see goodness and fairness in the thing, person or
whatever is being loved.
We blacks have taken many swan dives off the
shakey diving board into the empty pool. And it
hurts me to see my brothers and sisters do this, but
my mother also told me that a hard head makes a
good ass. So we learn from our mistakes. Maybe
when one of the Panthers gets his brains almost
knocked out of his head by one of those (as they
say) pigs—which means cops—they will try using it
if there are any brains left.
As far as I'm concerned, if they want to, they
can try to overthrow the system. I know damn well
they are taking a dive into the empty pool. From
what 1 see, the Panthers aren't really together
enough to even know an effective organization lor
such an enormous job.

‘Unkempt sameness’ scored
To the editor.
When are the pathetic, weird, unkempt, hairy
characters wandering wild-eyed around this campus
mumbling vague verbalizations whose meanings
they cannot demonstrate, going to realize that their
inefective rebellion against trivia has society evaluating them as those concerned only with trivia?
When are the fuzzy fellows going to realize that
the effective rational rebellion which has improved
our dynamic democracy every generation has been
the result of a highly creative cooperation con
cerned with something important to society? When
are they going to realize that merely being different
or even unkjue does not mean they are necessarily
being creative? When will they realize that their
unkempt sameness is deemed by society as an irrational conformity of a monkey see, monkey do,
cult?
When are the unkempt going to realize that their
trivial rebellion bars them from the creative cooperation which could improve both them and their
world? That is the real sadness. Only their pathetic
sincereity is more sad. They advocate love without
grasping its meaning.
The poor deliberately unkempt! Society can
only sadly stand by in patient tolerance. Society
can only sorrowfully say, “Forgive them! They
know not what they do
to themselves!”

No doubt everyone in the University community knows
now
that the Alumni Association Homecoming dinnerby
dance tomorrow night will be held in the first-floor cafeteria
of Goodyear Hall, instead of the reputationally racist Buffalo
Athletic Club.
The decision—an important one in beginning to purge
this University of its racism—was a last-chance effort to
avoid a potentially dangerous confrontation between segments of the University and involving important elements
of the Buffalo community.
If the decision had been made six months ago, tensions
would not have risen to the high point they did earlier this
week. Further, if the strong pressures to relocate the dance
had not been exerted over the past several weeks, the controversy and the ensuing decision would not have developed.
Tuesday’s meeting in the President’s office was no deliberate meeting of the minds, but rather a hasty climax to
a complex pathway of political pressure:
the ad hoc committe of younger alumni researched
the discriminatory record of the BAG, contacted alumni officials, and were told of the “impossibility” of changing the
dance site;
the anti-defamation League of the B’nai B’rith sent
letters to alumni officials, as well as to local and State University administrators, urging relocation of the dance;
the University Student Association passed a resolution
condemning the alumni for having dance at BAG, and urging
relocation or postponement of the event;
President Meyerson decided not to go, with no reason
made public;
The Spectrum broke the story to the University community; alumni officials became only more obstinate in their
refusal to withdraw the commitment to BAG;
more community groups joined a nearly united University community in urging a reconsideration of the dance

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                    <text>The Spectrum Q
if

Henry Owen, chairman of the University’s Alumni Homecoming Weekend, expressed what seemed to be his final words
on the controversy currently raging over
the alumni’s decision to hold their annual
Homecoming dance at the Buffalo Athletic
Club.
However, an ad hoc committee of alumni is determined to prevent the dance
from taking place in the “reputationally

racist” club.
Meanwhile, Dr. Thomas E. Connolly,
vice chairman of the Faculty Senate, has
sent a memorandum to all members of the
Executive Committee asking for “permission” to send a letter to Mr. Owen on be-

half of the Senate. The letter would protest the holding of the dance at the BAC
and would urge its postponement.
A spokesman for the ad hoc alumni
group explained their plans.
“First, we are making a general attempt
to get the most important people to stay
away.” University President Martin Meyerson has already indicated that he will not
attend.
If the Alumni Association goes ahead
with its plans, the ad hoc committee will
follow a policy of “general harassment,"
the spokesman continued. “We will physically block the doors to the Millard Fillmore Room (in Norton Hall) before the

'

,,

He estimated there is a “hard core of
100 to 200 people with us in this. The
physical situation at the BAC Saturday will
be aided by various civil rights groups in
the community.”
The reception to be given at the Faculty
Club after Saturday’s football game will
also be blocked by the group, he said.
Mr. Owen, himself a BAC member, explained that he met Friday with Dr. Robert Fisk, director of the Office of Equal
Opportunity; Robert O’Neil, assistant to

the president, and Elmer Ernst, president
of the BAC, to discuss the issue.
“The outcome of the meeting was a letter that was sent to Mr. Meyerson and Dr.
Fisk,” Mr. Owen said. He explained that
the letter outlines the circumstances that
led up to the alumni's reserving the BAC
for the Homecoming dance:
“In January our committee had reserved
both the Statler Hilton Golden Ballroom
and the BAC and were evaluating which
to choose. The BAC was $2.00 less per
couple; however, some of our committee
felt we got better service and food at the
Statler. We were undecided even into February when along came a Miss Jane Cohen,

president of the Universil
ties Board, who requested us to relinquish
the ballroom to the undergraduates,
$600 savings
“We were only too happy to comply, the
decision being£ made for us. In effect this
move made the entire committee nappy,
as Mr. Meyerson could show up- at botn
events, and we could save $2.00, or a total

“Also, the alumni are planning to show

“It’s a long walk to the tenth floor,” he

Commenting on the BAC

s reputation of

that “in 49 years, only one Negro has applied for membership. That was Dr. Henry

no black exclusion clause.”
In order to become a member of the
BAC, an applicant must receive letters of
endorsement from two members. The en
dorsees are then presented to the Execu
live Board, which voles on their acceptance. A total of three negative votes con
stitutes a “blackball” of the applicant.
Those wishing to join must also submit

Black boycott
After this occurred, prominent blacks
refused to attend functions at the club. Mr.
Nichols, according to Mr. Glickman, sent
letters to members of the club explaining
that he would not go there because of the
racist policy. “If it’s true that the reason
for Dr. Everett’s rejection was the fact
that his sponsors fell through,” Mr. Glickman argued, “then when Mr. Nichols
wrote to the BAC members saying why he
refused to go there, wouldn’t they have

The American-North Vietnamese talks on Vietnam enPARIS
tered their sixth month and Hanoi blamed the United States anew
for the deadlock in the discussions.
The talks opened in May, aimed at cooling down the Vietnam
war enough to begin a full peace conference. Diplomats on each side
have reported no progress.
"There has appeared no progress in the Paris talks since its start
and this is because the United States has been stubbornly rejecting
the unconditional halt to bombing which is the only solution for proceeding the talks,” said the North Vietnam Communist party newspeper Nhan Dan in an editorial broadcast from Hanoi.

To alleviate some pre-registration confusion, University College
has implemented a number of improvements in the procedure this
semester.

Juniors and seniors will be given a full week for pre-registration
on a first-come, first-serve basis,
in contrast to the two-day alphabetical system employed previously. Also, more rigid policy has
been adopted towards the departmental changes and cancellations
which caused confusion during
the summer.
These changes are not permanent. Next fall, project SARA, the

University’s fully computerized
registration system, will begin
operation. SARA
Student Academic Registration Associationpromises to streamline every
phase of registration, and eliminate the antiquated field-house
system of registration.
Students, after composing
schedules from a list of course
offerings mailed to them by
SARA, will be able to phone one
of the 30 ulltra-modern keyboard terminals, where an oper—

course is filled, the computer

can suggest alternate times and
courses, and the student can
change his schedule with total
facility.
At the end of each day, the
computer will send an “excess”
report to each department, so
that more classes can be sched-

uled if necessary.
In addition, the SARA computer will handle student records.
It will keep a current, crossindexed file on every student,
as well as inform him of new
courses, and developments which
may interest him. Any changes in
status can be phoned into one of
the terminals, and fed directly
into the computer. File copies are
sent out yearly for revision and
endorsement.

Preregistration schedule
Pre-registration for juniors and
seniors will extend from Oct. 21
through Oct. 25. Materials may
be obtained in the University

This effort to gauge student
opinion, they feel, was not accurate and extensive enough.
This week’s referendum will be
more standardized and formal.
Underlying the issue of required courses is that of student
participation in departmental decisions.
The flier states: “As a concerned group of sociology majors,
we feel that students are rational,
intelligent people who are capable of making decisions that
shape an

community.

Thus far the student segment
of this community has been disenfranchised, having little or no
participation in the decisions affecting issues crucial to them.”

Violent riots in Panama in 1964 led to a

1903 treaty regulating U.S. stewardship of

Diplomatic relations were reestablished

LeMay wants Haiphong closed

“would leave the method up to the commander.”
Vietnam was the most important issue
in the 1968 campaign, the American Independent Party candidate said.
LeMay said he favored a negotiated
peace in Vietnam. “We are negotiating
now and what are we accomplishing?” he
asked. “We are not going to get anywhere
unless we do something decisive."
“We should twist their arm a little
more,” he said, by closing Haiphong and
stopping “the resources going from the
north to the south.”
So far, he said, “we have been hitting
the wrong targets.”
Before bombing populated areas, LeMay
suggested, the United States should warn
civilians that their areas are to be hit so
they would have time to evacuate.

Safe Streets Act—from $62 million to $620
million annually—to stamp out crime and

The proposal was one of several by the

the nation of lawlessness.
“Whatever the cost, it must be done,”
Humphrey said in a national television address—the second of his campaign.
The Safe Streets Act is the administration’s major anti-crime program and provides federal grants for the improvement

He said that Wallace has talked “of little else but crime and race” and added he

As for Nixon, Humphrey said the GOP

“The time for talking is over, we need

For two years Martin Sostre operated
the Afro-Asian Bookstore in Buffalo, a
store which most students now walk past
daily in Norton Hall. Sostre is at this
moment in Green Haven State Prison,
serving and appealing 41 years on a narcotics conviction. He is an ex-Muslim who
lived rather puritanically; anyone who
knows him and anyone who is familiar
with the trial proceednigs can see plainly
that his is being framed. His bail was set
at an impossibly high $50,000 and he has
been sentenced for an unbelievably
lengthy period of time. Why?
The Afro-Asian Bookstore was a center
for black revolutionary activity in the
ghetto, and the city government needed a
scapegoat for the rebellion which broke
out in the early summer of 1967, Like
southern racists during the civil rights
struggle, they could not accept that spontaneous street violence grew out of the
bitter frustrations of an exploited unhappy
people. No, violence was not caused by
legitimate social grievances gone unredressed centuries too long, it was caused
by “black power fanatics” or “outside agitators,” whose rowdiness disturbed the
tranquility of an otherwise contented community. By focusing on Martin Sostre, the
Buffalo power structure divested itself of
guilt, and placed the responsibility for the
rebellion upon an individual.
However, putting Martin Sostre in jail
did much more than provide a witch for
the Buffalo governors; it removed probably the most active and intelligent radical
voice within the black community. Money
is being made in that community by realtors, landlords, storekeepers, dope pushers
and factory owners who use black labor
at minimum wage jobs, and the role of the
Buffalo police is to protect that money by your taxes.

any means necessary. Property is sacred
in this country, not people, and Martin
Sostre understands this.
Thus he speaks not simply of “guns"
and “liberation,” but like the Black Panthers, he is able to spell out what this
means in terms of social organization, that
is, in terms of building a community based
not on wage slavery, racism by any race
and profit, but one based bn equality, community control of its own institutions,
black nationalism and socialism. Thisjjpncept of community runs in direct opposition to the people with vestejLfinanciiT interest, and to maintain fHeir profits the
opposition leaders had to be silenced. In
court Sostre was literally gagged when his
truths struck too close to home.
The case raises every significant issue
of the day from black power to freedom
of the press, from the nature of psychology
and law to the nature of the judicial system and the system it serves. Why was
Sostre, like Rap Brown and Huey Newton,
denied a trial by his peers? Why a sentence of 41 years and 30 days? I thought
“criminals” were sent to correction institutes, where they learn to reintegrate
themselves into a productive life. Why
was Sostre described as “paranoid” by objective psychiatrists? Why is Sostre now
held incommunicado, and why did the
police attempt to wreck his store?
The truth is always stranger than fiction. To one who has never experienced
a protracted systematic oppression aimed
at destroying the consciousness, Martin
Sostre’s story seems like an extract from
1984. Incredibly, Sostre’s response to the
persecution he faces is like that of the
character in Greek mythology whose
strength redoubles each time he is dashed
to the ground. What is most significant
about his case is not what is revealed
about the decadence of the Buffalo police
and judiciary, but about the integrity of
the human spirit, and the necessity for intelligent political activity to keep that
spirit alive and whole.
In an age when political repression is
coming down harder and harder on both
black and white radicals, Marlin Sostre's

Georgian

Julian Bond to speak here
by Alfred Dragone
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Julian Bond, controversial black

legislator from Georgia, will
speak here at 3:30*p.m. Wednesday in the Fillmore Room.
The 28-year-old Mr, Bond has
been an activist in the struggle
for racial equality since 1960,
when he founded the Committee
on Appeal for Human Rights. He
also was a founder of the Student
Non violent Coordinating Commit
tec.
During his tenure as Communications Director of SNCC, Mr.

Bond coordinated student antisegregation protests in Atlanta.
IHe also helped organize civil
fights drives and voter registration campaigns in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas.
Mr. Bond first gained national

prominence in January, 1966
when he was denied a seat in the
Georgia House of Representatives
to which he was elected in 1965
Some members of the legislature
vehemently objected to Mr.

Bond's statements critical of the
Administration stance on Viet
nam and in support of anti-war
demonstrators.
A second election was held in
February, 1966 to fill Mr. Bond's
newly vacated seat. He also won
this special by-election and again,
a special House Committee re-

fused to seat him.
Supreme Court decision

Georgia law docs not provide for
popular election of delegates to
national conventions, the original
Georgia delegation was selected
personally by Gov. Lester Maddox and the Democratic State
Chairman.

'Rump' convention

This action prompted Mr. Bond
and his supporters to hold a
‘rump" convention where they
elected their own delegates.- Both
groups then headed for Chicago
to vie for Georgia’s 43 convention
votes.
The credentials committee,

headed by New Jersey Gov. Rich
ard Hughes and largely con
trolled by the Administration,
voted to divide the contested
votes evenly between the rival
delegations.

re-

ports were submitted and an acrid
floor battle ensued.
The Committee actively argued

that neither delegation reflected

the wishes of all of Georgia’s voders and in a close roll call, their
version prevailed. This action
gave rise to deafening shouts —
emanating largely from the New
York and California delegations—-

of “Julian Bond, Julian Bond!"
With this name ringing in the
ears of thousands of delegates and
millions of viewers, Chairman Albert adjourned the proceedings.
The next day the motion to seal

Throughout the convention, Mr.
Bond led his delegation around
the convention floor in search of
recognition and seats. When the
Crucial Presidential vote drew
near, however, Mr. Bond had
found seats and a microphone.

The next evening, the name of

Julian Bond was placed in nomination for the office of Vice

President. Mr. Bond thus became
the first black to be nominated
for that office by any major party. Declining, Mr, Bond thanked
his supporters but urged that his
name be withdrawn because he
had not reached the proper age.

The march itself began at 1:30

manner from Lafayette Square to

four miles was covered in relative silence, there being only a

broke into a unison chant. Upon

Cries urging the people on sidewalks to join the march were
often accepted, and the ranks
began to swell later in the march.
However, the march itself was
looked upon as a parade, people
staring silently from the sidewalks, or peering out of their
windows at the assemblage below.

'Justice for everyone'

At about 3 p.m., the march
reached Delaware Park, and a

“We, the concerned citizens of

States, or anywhere in this

C. Victor Raiser, a Buffalo attorney, spoke next. He expressed

the need for the people who attended the inarch to make their
opinions known. “At this moment,” he said, “the opposers may
have more supporters than our
side,” but Mr. Raiser was sure
that “the persuasive few will
eventually win out over the sim
pie many.”
Father James Groppi was then
introduced as the “Italian Con
quistador.”

Groppi immediately

electrified his audience by criticizing the Church and the social
conditions of America.
“Freedom to live where one
wants, that’s what’s important. If
a Negro wants to move out of a
ghetto, he should be able *o. if
he wants to remain, he should
be able to. There’s many a white
community a Negro would be
crazy to want to move into.”

Purpose of CAUSE
He said the purpose of CAUSE
—Coalition for Action, Unity, and
Social Equality—one of the main
groups sponsoring the march, was
to “get bigots out of the Common
Council.”

He then chided the audience:
“Don’t go home feeling as it you
have done your duty, there’s
plenty to do . . . you can’t be
afraid of anything until all people are free. In the battle against
racism, both black and white must
get involved. We must get involved in the fight against discrimination wherever it is.”
Regarding his dissatisfaction
with the Church, he said: “Min
isters, rabbis, and priests must

preach fearlessly against discrimination. They must tell members
of their congregation: ‘If you refuse to let blacks move into your
neighborhood, then you have no
business going to church’.” Dis
cussing fear of going to jail for
breaking a law he thought immoral, Groppi said: “Disobedience to the law of man may be
better then disobedience to the

law of God.”

Board of Regents changes
state teacher requirements
The New York State Board of
Regents approved plans for expansion of the University system
at its annual meeting this fall and
took action on liberalization of
teacher requirements.
The New York State requirements for teacher certificates
have been changed by the Regents Board. The new program
for prospective teachers in college reduces the number of specific course requirements and provides for greater flexibility and
more classroom work.
Increased responsibility is to be
given to the colleges themselves
on the training and assignment of
teachers. Hopefully, more per-

sons will become eligible for certificates under the new system.

The changes affect elementary
and high school teachers. For example, a prospective secondary
English teacher will complete 12
hours in education as a general

requirement, rather than taking
specifically required courses. In
addition, 36 hours of English and
student teaching will be required.
The rule requiring separate li"

censes to teach in New York

City, each of which licenses its own teachers, has also

state.

The State University amendments to its master plan for expansion include two schools of
architecture and a Hamburg campus for Erie County Technical Institute to serve residents of the
southern half of the

county.

two-year graduate fellowships to

defended his choice on the
grounds of academic freedom.

Mr. Hatchett had previously
been a substitute teacher at Public School No. 68 in Harlem, but
had been fired for taking, on 1m£
own initiative, a sixth grade class
to a Malcolm X memorial meeting
at which anti-white sentiments
were expressed.
He has always been outspoken
in his views on white racism and

the black struggle. He welcomed
this year’s class of freshmen to
the Washington Square campus
with the words: “This is the year
for black,” to the applause of two
dozen members of the Black Allied Student Association, His only
response to the attacks from such
papers as The New York Post and
The New York Times was a quote
from Camus that “90% of the
world’s press lies,”

At that time he called Mr,
Shanker “a man so drunk for
power, so racist-motivated, that
he doesn’t give a damn about the
lives of millions of children who
somehow want, but aren’t getting, anything approaching an
education.” He added that New
York was one of the most racist
cities in the world.
Nor did Mr. Hatchett commend
the administrators for hiring him:
“As long as they’re fair and just

them. But I’ve had my toes
stepped on often enough and I’ve
had my behind kicked often

kicks my behind, he’ll lose his
foot.” He urged black students to
beware of “natural hairdos housing processed minds.”
Two days later, the Reverend
Howard Moody of the Judson Memorial Church in Greenwich Village admitted: “There is more
anti-Semitism coming from the
pulpits of Protestant churches

every Sunday than there was in
that article.”
But community and academic
groups have been unusually

united in their opposition to Mr.
Hatchett, including Moody’s own
Protestant Council. The announcement of the dismissal came only
hours after Representative James
Scheuer, Bronx Democrat of the
Jewish Labor Committee, again
denounced Mr, Hatchett and ask
ed the University to fire him.

Senate approved
The University Senate had met
previously and interviewed Mr.

Hatchett. The senate voted to
support Dr. Hester’s decision,
which was confirmed by Mr. Hatchett’s immediate superiors.
Mr. Hatchett called the procedure of his dismissal “a sham
which violated every principal of
academic freedom,” and described
the senate atmosphere as hostile.
“I am being punished because I
have spoken freely and openly
of some of the ills of this society.
. . . The decision by NYU to fire
me is a disaster for future cooperation between NYU and the
black community.”

The students supporting Mr,
Hatchett at the uptown campus
had claimed early in the takeover that Dr. Hester had promised to reinstate Mr. Hatchett and
even promote him to “dean of
black students.” Provost W. Lewis
Hyde announced later that Mr.
Hatchett would remain in charge
of the Center, but would no longer be affiliated with the University. The Center would pay rent
and Mr. Hatchett would use his
severance pay as salary, acting
as dean of black students in an
unofficial capacity. “The University will neither approve nor condemn that,” said Provost Hyde.
“It’s none of our business.” And
Robert Mack of the University
News Bureau added: “We have
no control over their (the students’) actions.”
The future of the black student
center will be discussed among
administrators, faculty members,
students and trustees, including
Judge Constance Baker Motley.
The original purpose of the Center, to be financed by student
fees, was to serve as a counseling
center and meeting place for
black students. It is scheduled
to open at Washington Square
Village on Nov. 1.

�Controversy over Cleaver
lectures disrupts California
Special to The Spectrum

Will California Governor Ronald Reagan, in the words of Berkeley Associated Students President Charles Palmer, succeed in
making “the admittedly best state
university in the nation into a
system of secretarial schools for
future generations of Califor-

nians”?

Governor Reagan says he has
received nearly 5000 letters on
the subject of Eldridge Cleaver’s
proposed lecture series at the
University of California at Berkeley, with only thirteen in favor of
letting him lecture. Furthermore
—and to Reagan and the voters,
this is the real issue—two-thirds
of the letters favor cutting off
UC’s funds if Cleaver is allowed
to speak.
The controversy over Cleaver
is an excuse for Californians to
vent their fury over their tax dollars supporting the Berkeley
scene, which they have resented
since the Free Speech Movement
of 1964. The presence of Ronald
Reagan in the governor’s mansion

is a blow struck for their side

sity (Berkeley) is somehow bent

In a speech at Stanford University last week, Cleaver called Reagan “a punk, a sissy, and a coward," and challenged him to a
‘duel to the death, or until he says
Uncle Eldridge.” The choice of
weapons: “a gun, a knife, a base-

ball bat or marshmallows,” said
the Black Panther leader.
Members of the Berkeley faculty met and accused the Regents
of violating their academic freedom, but backed out by calling
for negotiations rather than risk
a confrontation. The Regents had
reduced Cleaver’s ten lecture engagement to a single speaking invitation and cancelled the credit
for a course in “Dehumanization
and Regeneration in the American Social Order.”
University President Charles
Hitch commented on the Regents’
decision: “I’m sure it’s damaged
the University,” He warned that
there was a fear among the people of the state that “the Univer-

Special to The Spectrum

LEXINGTON, Ky.—While gome
University of Kentucky students
solemnly demonstrated against
the visit of George Wallace to the
city of Lexington, 35 self-described “hippies,” in appropriate
dress and hair, staged a two-hour
demonstration in support of the
Presidential candidate.
They carried signs reading
Turn on with Wallace; Keep America beautiful, get a haircut, and
shouted “law and order” or “police power.” The 10,000 Wallace
supporters at the scene had mixed
reactions to the put-on.
One woman asked; “They ARE
hippies, aren’t they?” Another objected; “I thought hippies were
for McCarthy,” and a more trusting Wallacite said with satisfaction: “Hippies have SOME sense:
“If someone like that is for
Wallace, I don’t know if I’m supporting the right man or not.”
As Wallace spoke, the hippies
began to chant, “Sock it to ’em,
George!” and the candidate, mistaking them for the usual shouting protestors, gave his stock reply: “You people don’t know how
many votes you get me every time
you . . .” The hippies responded
by crying “We want Wallace!”
The Alabamian hestitated and
finally said: “I think they’re for
us up there.” The hippies applauded and left chanting “Heck

Rafferty Threatens
Max Rafferty,

Superintendent

of Public Instruction and Republican Senatorial candidate, has
sent out letters to every school in
the state warning them that their
funds will be cut off and their
credentials revoked if they invite
Cleaver to speak. In the letter are
quotes from Cleaver's speech at
Sacramento State College last
week advocating “dragging legislators by the scruff of their necks
and throwing them into the gutter.” Dr. Rafferty also accused
Cleaver of extolling the teachings
of Marx and uttering “unspeakable obscenities.”
After taking into consideration
the role played by frankly political motives—such as Rafferty’s
campaign against the vestiges of
liberalism in California—a basic
problem of state institutions remains. How can a university, divided among itself into at least
three factions of students, faculty
and administration, fight for autonomy against pressure from outraged politicians and taxpayers?
Two bond issues, for example,
will be presented to the California voter in November, and their
future depends on what happens
within the next few weeks. They
will be powerful weapons in the
hands of Gov. Reagan, who told
the Regents: “The people of California are pretty directly responsible for the University’s support,
and if we don’t take these people
seriously, there’s going to be
trouble.”

olutionary
for 476 pages with minimal triteness and no boredom. It is Yur—

ick's third novel. It is about the
world around Sam Miller, who is
less a central character than a
jumping-off point. Miller is a
nearly despondent writer who,
sick of a professional writing
game, takes a position as caseworker in the New York Department of Welfare. His dissatisfaction with his wife, affair with a
prostitute client, alienation from
and contempt for nearly everything (himself) are less important
as character development than as
a means for Yurick to provide the
reader with an underlying sense
of disillusionment and chaos.
The book is at first a tonguein-cheek indictment of our times
—of Ismael, a one-eyed Negro
militant with a roomful of plas
tic explosives and dreams of
uniting the J. D. friends of younger days into a vast guerrilla army
to paralyze New York City; Alonso, the cool junkie; of Faust, a
Jewish tenement landlord who
has learned the value of the dol
lar in the Nazi death camps; of
Paulie, a Negro radical who
knows that all blacks arc moral;

York is in ruins, the streets are
filled with the dead and dying,
and city pigs and national guard
are battling the general public.
In the middle of a riot, the book
ends.
The Bag is well polished. Yurick lapses between reality and
fantasy continually; it is nothing
new, but it is done well and without the general ineptitude of
many other writers. Language is
real—real enough that Yurick
may have lived the story? Spades
speak like spades, new revolutionaries like new revolutionaries,
and chicks like chicks. More,
when characters’ actioiTs move
from real to imagined, the talk
remains convincingly straight.
Yurick has an unsurpassed mastery of style when dealing with
dialogue of any sort.
"I'm not a religious man," Hardison said.
"Religion is the opium ol the
people," Paulie kidded.
"The old home truths are the

He started to make a comic
speech, but stopped himself and

For any one whose life
is left of Nelson Rockefeller, the
book can be disturbing. It finally comes back to a question: Can
we laugh at ourselves in our own
confusion? Sam Miller sees his
world unsympathetically, but Yurick relieves a bit of our own guilt
by juxtaposing our frustration
and confusion with our inanity.
And the Left is through if it fails
to see that 3000 people with placards and no particular direction
to march can be pretty comical.
The Left is confused. It is desperate. And it is not a particularly secure place to be. But our
positions are elastic, and the revolutionary, white or black, must
beware—if he isn’t careful, the
politics will grow overly important and, like the right wing, he
will cease to control politics, and
politics will control him. Insanity in a political arena is not absolved by legimate inspiration.
Without care we may all end up
dead in the streets in the last
chapter of a non-fiction work.

University to participate in
national ‘Time Out Day’ plan
The National Student Association’s first regional meeting focused on "Time Out Day.”
Representatives from this University, D'Youville College, Rosary Hill College and the Stale
University College at Buffalo
attended the meeting, presided
over by Richard Miller, regional
chairman.
“Time Out Day,” a recent innovation here, was explained to
those present as a day when
participating classes will be open
to free discussion, instead of (he
regular lectures or recitations. It
will be held Oct. 29,
Mr. Miller indicated that "this
will be a day when people can
talk about their problems, enabling them to develop a sense

of community. As well, the Time
will hopefully help stu
dents establish a sense of identity by focusing on the problems
of an individual in a numberoriented university.” Time Out

The representatives from
D’Youville and Rosary Hill fell
Time Out Day was too radical
for their campuses, and that faculty resistance would be fatal to
the program.

here in February, was discussed
and support was asked of the
other three schools. The effect

treatment for addicts will be the
themes. Dr. Timothy

The two regional priorities, institutional racism and the vote
for 18-year-olds were examined.
Mr. Miller fegjs that the vote for
I8-year-olds is possible after a
three-year program of statewide
publicity and lobbying in Albany.
An independent joint legislative

committee in Buffalo has recommended the vote for 20-year-olds,
to be effective in six months.
Student discounts and the possibility of an international ID
card, with international discounts,
were discussed, and a survey of
student shopping habits with reference to specific stores in the
area was proposed.

It’s a life of songs, dances,
jokes and philosophizing. But can
a “people” enjoy being a dog?
Of course he can. Ask Grant
Cowan, who plays the character
Snoopy in “You’re A Good Man,
Charlie Brown” at Studio Arena.
“I enjoy doing this part and
the people I work with are really
a wonderful bunch of kids,” says
Mr. Cowan. “They have such pep

and enthusiasm and the material
works so well, that you don’t
have to read the comic strip to
get the full value of the humor,”
he beamed.
Does an actor adopt some of
the characteristics of his role?
Grant says: “Yes, as a matter of
fact I think we do. Many times
I’ll find myself philosophizing
with the younger members of the
cast just as Snoopy thinks a lot
in the Schulz strip.”
The youthful appeal of -the
Charlie Brown play is perfect for
an actor like Mr. Cowan. His
moppet-like stature and bouncy
vitality add great zeal to Snoopy;
visually in the spirited dance routine “Suppertime” and vocally in
his tirades against the cursed
“Red Baron."

Youth productions

children’s shows—Razzle Dazzle and Sing Ring Around.
"I think working with young
children, aged three through six,
is one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had as a performer.” said Mr. Cowan.
"They're so much-more willing
to accept fantasy and become
quickly involved with the story.
With the older kids it’s The Avengers or nothing at all.”
"Charlie Brown has run for

nine months, establishing a Canadian record for play runs. Over
the past few months, I’m really
delighted at the way young children respond to the play,’ 'he
continued.
“When I come on stage, they
yell ‘Hi Snoopy’ and wave and
giggle. It’s such a warm experience.”
Children’s productions are not
Mr. Cowan’s only accomplishment
in theatercraft. He toured Canada
with Tyrone Guthrie’s company
of “HMS” Pinafore,” serving as
dance director.

Old Vic grad
Born in Winnipeg, the young
actor graduated from the famous
Old Vic Theatre in England. In
June 1967, the Canadian Theatre
Council sent him back to Old Vic
on a scholarship to study with

his former teachers.
In comparing Canadian and
American responses to the clever
jokes of Charlie Brown, Mr. Cowan noticed only a small difference. He said: “The Canadians
don’t identify as much with the
lines about ZIP code and the
Pledge of Allegiance.”
When Mr. Cowan played the
role of Artful Dodger in the musical “Oliver” he would roll in
the dust of the parking lot to
give his appearance a more realistic air.

key military bases,” located mostly in the East and South, staging

With the Presidential elections
one month away, leftist student
and peace organizations across a
broad spectrum have begun planning a “fall election offensive,”
opening a new phase in the national protest of the electoral system which began in Chicago and
which will continue through the
inauguration in January.
The National Mobilization to
End the War in Vietnam (Mobe),
a loosely formed organization
which in the past has coordinated
many mass anti-war demonstrations and which earlier this year
called for protests in Chicago, is
the one group so far to become
specific about its plans.
Mobe leaders are calling on
students to “find new ways of
voting this year—in the streets
rather than in polling places”
since voting for one of the three
major candidates provides no opportunity to vote for an immediate end to the war in Vietnam,
Paul Potter, former SDS president now on Mobe’s steering committee, said after a planning session in New York that the goal
is a series of national “dencentralized” protest activities “leading up to, but not including, disruption of polling places.”

marches and love-ins;
Declaration of Nov. 2 as
Vietnam Sunday and urging clergymen opposed to the war to
speak out to their congregations;
Mass rallies to be held on
the eve of Election Day supporting a boycott of the elections as
irrelevant and illegitimate;
Mass demonstrations at polling places on Election Day combined with leafleting and guerrilla theater performances
throughout the country.

Debate over tactics

The gathering of members of
various peace groups this past
month in New York was marked
by definite evidence of political
differences between the groups.
Jeff Shero, editor of the underground New York newspaper, Rat,
objected to so strong a connection
between the elections and the
war. “We should try to tie the
protest more to the on-going demands of the movement,” he said.
Objections were also raised to the
idea of counter-election polls at
which persons opposed to the
thre major candidates could cast
their vote at an alternative place.
Shero explained: “That tends to
give the idea that we just don't
have a choice this time, when
in fact we’ve never had a choice.”
In the words of Mobe, students
are “drawing the connections between the war and society as they
see the relationship of their uni-"
versities to both the war and the
federal government.” It urges
them to point out the ties between “the war machine and the
university through all-day teachins, confrontations with draft
boards, or other actions aimed at
forcing universities to end military research."

Specific protest planned
The thrust of the activities, he
said, will be to link the continuing war with the concept that our
present political system, rather
than dealing with the situation,
tends to perpetuate it. The program’s main features include;
Presentation of anti-war generals on the weekend prior to the
elections at public hearings at
which the issues surrounding the
war would be presented;
Delegations of anti-war demonstrators visiting the nation’s “35

�Buffalo

overcomes

Delaware, 29-17
by

J. B. Sharcot

Spectrum

Staff Reporter

The first of three consecutive
Saturdays at Rotary Field saw the
State University of Buffalo Bulls
improve their season record to
3-2 with a convincing 29-17 win
over “Tubby” Raymond’s Blue

Hens from Delaware, . t
All of the scoring came in the
first half of the contest, which
was played in 66 degree sunny
weather, Buffalo started the scoring the second time they had possession. Fullback Joe Zelmanski,
who fumbled the ball on the first
series of downs, carried three
times to take the ball from the
Bulls’ 42-yard line to Delaware’s
47.

After Blue and White quarterback Denny Mason kept the ball
for a four-yard gain, tailback Kenny Rutkowski started off right
guard, cut back toward the left,
shook off the last would-be tackier around the enemy’s 30-yard
line and carried the ball into paydirt. A key block was thrown by
split end Dick Ashley. Bob Bmbow’s placement was good and the
Bulls led the Hens by a 7-0 score
with 8:35 remaining in the opening quarter.

Delaware comes back
However, Delaware came back

with a vengeance and scored the
next 17 points to give the Blue
Hens a 17-7 lead shortly into the
second period of play. The visitor’s first tally was scored by
quarterback Tom DiMuzio on a
one-yard keeper around left end
consummating a nine-play drive
of 74 yards.
Delaware scored again the next
time they had the ball, but this
time from 50 yards following a
short punt into the wind by Buffalo punter Paul Jack, who improved considerably later in the
game. Fullback Chuck Hall carried the final 16 yards on a draw
play up the middle. Delaware
now led 14-7 with 1:40 remaining
in the quarter after soccer-style
kicking specialist Jeff Lippincott
was good again on the extra point
attempt.
Once again Delaware forced the
Bulls to punt, | but was unable to
move the ball themselves. Then
Hen middle linebacker John Favero picked off a Mason pass over
the middle and brought it back
to the Bulls' 39-yard line. Delaware drove the ball to the Buffalo
13, where they were stymied and
had to settle for a 30-yard field
goal by Lippincott.

Bulls come back
At the 7:10 mark of the second
quarter Zelmanski capped the

Buffalo drive of 65 ygrds in 12
plays with a two-yard plunge off
left tackle. Mason’s attempt for
the two-point conversion on an
Option sweep was successful and
the Bulls closed the gap to two

points.

The Blue and White scored in
plays the next time they
had possession. However, in the
process the Bulls lost the services
of star quarterback Denny Mason
for the remainder of the afternoon and possibly for longer. The
accident occurred on the second
down pitchout to Rutkowski, a
play which involves the quarterback as a blocker. Somehow Mason's leg was caught in a bad position beneath the pile of players and he had to be helped off
the field.
Unbelievably, on the very next
play from the line of scrimmage,
the Bulls came up with the most
exciting play of the game as reserve sophomore Quarterback Ed
Perry entered the line-up for the
first time this season. The 6 foot,
3 inch, 205 pounder calmly
stepped back in the pocket and
then threw over the middle to
tight end Paul Lang at Delaware’s
45-yard line.
Lang lugged the ball another
five yards before being hit, but
while he was being tackled he
lateralled the ball to nearby Rutkowski, who scooted the final 40
yards after escaping from a grasp
of a Blue Hen defender. Embow’s placement was good again
and the Bulls once again led with
a 22-17 score with 4:14 remaining
in the opening stanza.
However the scoring for the
first half was not yet at an end.
After an exchange of punts Buffalo defensive end, Tom Murphy,
the defensive standout all day,
recovered a fumble by Delaware
wingback Jim Lazarski at the Blue
Hens’ 12-yard line. Perry then
completed two passes, the last
one to Ashley from the threeyard line for what turned out to
be the final touchdown of the afternoon for either team.
Embow’s successful conversion
ended the scoring for the afternoon with a 29-17 halftime lead.
In that wild first half of play
Buffalo gained 285 of its 406 total
yards, 231 of 334 rushing yards
and 11 of its 19 total first downs.
In that opening half Rutkowski
rushed 12 times for 136 yards,
while Perry was four-for-four in
the aerial completion department.

column. The quarterbacks were
rushed hard and their accuracy
was consequently lessened greatly. Key interceptions were made
by linebackers Dan Sabo and
Dave Richner and Ashley recovered a fumble on a fair catch call
at the Delaware 29-yard line.
Other standouts on defense for
the Bulls were Nick Kish, a halfback, and lineman Prentis Henley

�Soccer club loses
after fierce contest
Though injury-ridden and
hampered by inexperience, the
State University of Buffalo Soccer
Club nonetheless made a strong
showing against Buffalo State College Thursday in a 4-1 loss.

It was obvious from the outset
that the Bulls were weakened by
the absence of five injured starters. Even so, the Bulls turned in
a good performance against the
same Buffalo State team which
went to the National Collegiate
Athletic Association semi-finals
a year ago.
the

Thursday's game found
Bulls playing “Brazilian-style”
soccer. In this setup, they employed a four-man front line,

two halfbacks, four fullbacks and
a goalie.

State basketball star
Randy Smith led the victorious
Orangemen with two goals. Guy
Bonfiglio and Dave McKay scored
the other State markers. The
State University of Buffalo’s goal
was scored by Edgar Rojas, who

tallies for the

Offside penalties
Although three offside penalties were called against State, the
Bulls failed to capitalize on any
of them. An argument over an
official’s failure to call an offside
penalty on a Buffalo State goal
highlighted the second half.

The Buffalo State players were
impressed with the Bulls’ performance. State scorer Dave McKay commented that “the Bulls
have good individual talent, but
need to play together longer.”
After the game, Jairo Estrada
of the Bulls expressed hopes that
soccer would become a varsity
sport. He noted that the club
doesn’t even have a good field orf
which to practice.
Having twice defeated the Buffalo Sauers Soccer Club, the Bulls
now stand 2-1 in regular season
competition.

Record is 4-0

Rugby team
Sporting a 4-0 record, the State
University of Buffalo rugby team

ond season begins in the spring.
The objective of rugby is to carry a ball, which looks like an
over-inflated football, over the opponent’s goal line. Three points
are scored for the goal and two
points are awarded for a following field goal, similar to the point
after touchdown in football.

competition will be a successfulone.

Rugby is a unique game in the
sense that it played purely for
its intrinsic values. There is no
pressure to practice, but on the
field the competitive spirit is very
high. Rugby at this University is
a club sport—there is no varsity
team on campus.
Anyone affiliated with the Unicrsity may play on the team.
There are presently professors,
graduate students, foreign students and undergraduates playing
rugby.

There are actually two separate
seasons on the rugby schedule.
Already this fall, the Buffalo team

The year is 1939: Nazi Germany
invades Czechoslavakia. People
gaze at the invading forces with
amazement and fear. Wednesday,
Aug. 21, 1968, The New York
Times headline reads: Czechoslovakia Invaded by Russian and
Four Other Warsaw Pact Forces;
They Open Fire on Crowds in
Prague. The expressions on the
faces of the people were familiar

ones.
What were those days directly
following the invasion like? Can
television and other news media
tell the real story? Are the cameras able to show the picture of
the Czechoslovakian people? Mrs.
Raymond Ewell, a citizen of the
U.S. and the wife of Professor
Ewell, vice president for research
at the State University of Buffalo, is able to tell the story as it
happened because she was caught
up in the terrifying commotion
of Prague.
Mrs. Ewell was spending the
summer studying at the Czechoslovakia Summer School of Slavic
Studies and visiting with her family at the time. She resided in a
dormitory along with persons
from all over the world. She spoke
of how happy the people had been
following the conferences held
earlier in the summer.
Hopes were high that things
could only get better. The “new
freedom” had swept the country
censorship had been lifted
and there was free speech. Reconstruction had begun in places
that needed repair for more than
20 years. Construction of subways had begun.
In August their hopes were
smashed. Mrs. Ewell felt compas—

sion for “the people who had so
many knocks, so many ups and
downs and so many hopes.” The
people held back their emotions.
It was hard to believe that they
could be invaded “from their socalled brothers.”

Memories of Hitler
People remembered Hitler’s
armies. Flashbacks of past days
went through their minds and in
front of their eyes. During the
first few days of the invasion
many youths resisted. They questioned the righteousness of the
Soviet move. It was the same old
story all over again.
Mrs. Ewell thought back on the
events as she remembered them,
The night that the Warsaw Pact
troops were crossing the border,
she and some of her fellow students had gone to the Pantomine. There, they and other residents of Prague sat, drank beer,
sang and had a good time unaware of the approaching danger.

No one really knew what was
going on until the next morning.
Mrs, Ewell awoke

to the commotion in the corridor. Then she
heard the news: “The troops of
the Warsaw Pact have invaded
Czechoslovakia.” The immediate
concern of most of the students
was how they were going to get
Others felt emotional attachment to the Czechoslovakian
cause.

Post-invasion nightmare
What was the city like afterwards? People lined the streets
in order to get bread and potatoes
and other things which had immediately become scarce. The
Soviets tried to control the media,
they failed
but they failed
to spread their propaganda, they
—

EOTC programs appear to be
in trouble on campuses this year.
Some have been threatened by
fire, others by demonstrations,
still others by referendums.
Last year, Alfred University
students disrupted ROTC maneuvers at their annual show.
Seven demonstrators refused to
leave the field and were dismissed. Their dismissal was upheld in court.
Earlier this year, the student
government at the University of
Massachusetts voted to abolish
credit for ROTC courses. It is
unlikely that the proposal will be
approved by the provost, and his
approval is necessary before the
measure can take effect.
The faculty at Cornell University has abolished junior and

senior credit for ROTC students
at the College of Arts and Sci-

ences.

Lower classmen have
never received credit for ROTC
courses. Dean “Stuart Brown explained that the college has no
control over “the content and
methods of instruction” and that
professors are appointed by the
Defense Department, not by Cornell.

Mandatory ROTC
A referendum held last week
the University of Wisconsin
among freshman men revealed
that 72.2% opposed the present
mandatory ROTC program, whereas only 27.4% approved it. About
one-half of the freshman men
voted. The leaders of the freshman ROTC Resistance Group had
urged their followers not to vote
and declared the referendum a
farce. One leader, Jerry Kellman,
said that even if the men had
voted for compulsory ROTC, a
minority should have the right
not to participate. The results
are to be presented before the

Reflections
When Mrs. Ewell arrived home
she was “pleased and touched" to
see a Czechoslovakian flag flying
from a window of Norton Hall.
Two students who sided with the
Czechoslovakian cause had taken
the time to hand-make the flag.
How does Mrs. Ewell feel about
her former country? "I can’t get
away from it,” she said.
She now waits in uncertainty—concerned about the survival of
the new Czechoslovakia. She worries and waits for news from her
sister who was visiting East Germany at the time of the invasion.
Mostly she thinks of the hardships that her people are forced
to go through again. “When you
get out,” she concluded, “you
think of the people."

faculty committee on ROTC which

will make the final decision.
At Lehigh University this fall,
300 students protested the presence of ROTC on campus and “the
mean-minded people that allow
it to exist."

Sinister protests
Other ROTC protests have
taken on more sinister forms. Unknown arsonists set fire to the
ROTC hall at the University of
Washington in Seattle. At Berkeley, a bomb was deposited on
the ROTC doorstep and an explosion ripped through the first
floor. Two bottles containing gasoline were found in the remains
of ROTC headqnarters at the University of Delaware, where compulsory training was abolished at
the recommendation of the faculty last year, after 28 students
were suspended for disrupting a
drill during which 26 ROTC
cadets deserted.
No one was hurt in either bomb
incident, and the FBI has begun
investigations.

Mrs Ewell did not know how
he was to leave Czechoslovakia.
Busses were often not allowed to
cross the border. She was finally
able to get out with an American
study group. They took a train
to the border and then were allowed to continue all the way, instead of changing for a bus as
had been pre-arranged.

failed to spread their "truth.” Rumors flew all over the city. People wondered which of their leaders were alive, and visitors wondered what borders were safe to
cross. Gasoline was nearly impossible to obtain. In many cases
foreign students were forced to
abandon hope for an immediate
exit. Friends of Mrs. Ewell kept
her well informed. One unhappy
friend came to Mrs. Ewell with
the news that troops had surrounded the Academy of Science,

Despite serious objections raised by the University Student Association and important groups in the Buffalo comand pending denunciations by the Faculty Senate
munity
the alumni
Executive Committee and civil rights groups
association has made it quite clear they still intend to hold
this weekend’s dinner-dance at the Buffalo Athletic Club.
—

—

The alumni group has gone but of its way to explain
that no other location is available; that postponement of the
dance would not only ruin the Homecoming hoopla, but also
seriously hurt the efforts of alumni “liberals” to woo funds
and favors from some of the old Bulls; that it was completely
unaware of the racist reputation of the BAG when the club
was booked; that if the BAC fails to convince the University
community that it is not discriminatory, the event will be
held somewhere else in the future.
There are other locations available. We suggest that
with the addition of a catering service and perhaps some
additional furniture, the cafeteria facilities in Goodyear Hall
would provide a fine place to hold such an event.
It is quite clear, however
with only a cursory examination of the BAG membership lists
that the alumni are
less interested in the University’s name being tarnished, than
in avoiding embarrassment for “The Club.”

"Forget the Communists. The kids are taking over
the country."

To the editor.
Adolescents greeted a candidate for the Presi
dency of the United States and the man he chose
to be his Vice President, with cries of “Seig Heir
and “fascist pig.” It was indeed an unfortunate
occurrence because all these infantile outbursts
accomplished was to set an example of the very
thing the candidate wants to eliminate. These inane
youngsters simply solidified the stand propagated
by the candidate they were protesting against.
Our university and country must be in a deplorable (Sic) if we can allow these imbeciles to make
asses of themselves. The participants in this demonstration should sit back and think of what they
have done. They were comparing Mr, Wallace to
a man (Hitler) who was the most despicable madman ruler the world has ever known. If these people think that a man like him would be allowed
to run for President of their nation, then it proves
that they have an awful low opinion of their country. More than a few people in this country support
George Wallace; are they going to support an
image of a man who may have killed their own
relatives?
Unless the young people of this university can
straighten out their values and principles, they will
find themselves stuck in a myriad of confusion
and in a revolving door of fantasy and immaturity.

When alumni say it may be necessary to coddle businessmen in a racist club in order to gain funds for scholarships
for underprivileged students, they exemplify a prevalent
hypocritical liberal attitude toward racism. We simply fail
to believe this past week’s “disclosures” of the discriminatory practices of the BAG are such shocking news to alumni
officials. They were well aware the club had such a reputation; they felt that keeping quiet about it all was the best
way to keep alumni BAG members happy, as well as working
“from the inside” toward changing the club’s practices. If
the BAG liberals

help their efforts.

Perhaps what the alumni overlook most in this current
controversy is that their “opponents" are also University
alumni. These younger alumni are not only of a different
generation, but they are really alumni of a different University; this is what the older alumni find hardest to face.
As much as they might like it, this is no longer the old
U. of B.; it is the largest University center in a rapidly growing State University. This has meant not only an increase
in the size of the institution, but also in the nature of the
educational experience; most alumni in the association are
U.B. veterans of the Feinberg Loyally Oath era .and the
Greek days. It has also meant an increase in public responsibility; this means increased involvement with the problems
of the underprivileged and less involvement with, the hankypanky of the privileged.

The Aldine Printing Co. of Los Angeles, the
world’s largest manufacturer of bumper stickers,
reports that its fastest-moving item is “Support
Your Local Police.” This is just another indication
of this nation’s preoccupation with Law and Order.
The issue of law and order has boosted the

candidacy of George Wallace into national prominence. It has also made Richard Nixon the man
to beat, while reducing Hubert Humphrey to a
tired second. Clearly, the American public feels
that law and order can become a reality only with
a strong President.

In a free society, every citizen is entitled to
security for his property and person. He is also
entitled to equal opportunity and freedom of expression. This is where the dilemma of law and
order occurs.
The black community sees law and order as a
specter hanging over its very existence. Legal efforts at securing a place in this society have often
failed. Extra legal approaches are often the only
solution. This is where the heavy hand of law and
order comes into play.
White America looks at the ghetto with dismay.
It fears for its property and safety. White America
cannot reconcile itself to the realities of the final
third of the 20th century. It uses the tool of law
and order as a means of separating the search for
dignity from the lawns of suburbia.
Law and order advocates are particularly dismayed with (he irreverence shown for America and
the American flag. They emphasize that campus
revolutionaries arc all Communist-inspired. Law and
order people apparently do not have any confidence
in a revolution that is not economically inspired.
After all. the American revolution began as a
squabble over taxes and tariffs.
The candidates .are conducting a campaign of
fear. Nixon is currently attempting to project an
image of alarm and control. He quotes FBI figures
which predict that the rate of violent crime will
double by 192. Nixon frequently brings a copy of
the Report of the Riot Commission to speaking encasements. He accuses the Commission of blaming
everyone for the riots except the rioters. This brand
of

demagogy

has become commonplace.

Humphrey is relatively mute on the subject of
law and order. He reserves most of his attacks for
organized crime in large urban areas. Humphrey

The issues are clear-cut: this University must not lend
its name in support of a club with a racist reputation.
The decision is up to the Alumni Association. The entire
University community is giving them one last chance to
change their minds.

To thq editor.
I was interested in Jean Nalbone’s review of
Marvin Unger’s book, Pawpaw, Fofu and Juju, appearing in The Spectrum Oct. 8. Having recently
read the book, a task which occupied a refreshing
three hours, I found the reviewer’s references to
“tedious plodding” and “jungles of strifled verbiage’
somewhat difficult to comprehend.
This reader found Pawpaw, Fufu and Juju (I
think you eat it) refreshing because it insists that
involvement can be sensitive and probing while
remaining non-judgmental. It is refreshing because
it declares that participation can reflect commitment, even compassion, while not debasing its

object.
I found Pawpaw, Fufu and'Juju
I think it
cures warts
an intelligent and mature reflection
upon a drama which refused to follow the script
It is not surprising that in her compulsion for
page-counting, the reviewer completely overlooked
the most important aspects of the book. It came as
a great surprise, on the other hand, to hear the
accusation that “Mr, Unger can’t write.” But then,
what evidence do we have that Miss Nalbone can
read?

Law and order is not to be accepted as a panacea for this society’s ills. It also should not be
dismissed as a fascist gimmick. Any discussion of

attention. There is much chaff to be separated

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

Alumni to use racist club
by Greg Lasalle
Spectrum Stmif Reporter

The General Alumni Association of the
State University of Buffalo plans to hold
its Annual Alumni Homecoming DinnerDance Oct. 19 at the Buffalo Athletic
Club despite demands on the University
to make a public denunciation and to
withdraw from the facilities of the club.
Whether the event will be a success is
questionable at this time.
An ad-hoc committee led by A1 Brownstein, graduate
student in social welfare, as well as the
Student Association and the department
of social welfare, have decided to take
action against the Alumni affair.
The committee, the department and Student Association have leveled a charge
of discrimination against the B.A.C. and
is demanding that the University make a
public denunciation and withdraw from
the facilities of the club.
Fred Hollander, Student Rights coordinator, proposed the passing of a petition,
approved by the Coordinating Council,
to the student body which read:
“We the undersigned students of the
State University of Buffalo vehemently
oppose the decision of the Alumni Association to hold its Alumni dance at the
Buffalo Athletic Club. The RAC has a

use

of the premises of such

a racist or-

ganization perpetuates injustice. Injustice
thrives on apathy.
'We, as students and members of the
University community, cannot witness the
marriage of racism to a University-connected organization. We therefore con-

demn the Alumni Association for support-

ing and associating itself with a racist

organization.”

a

Tuesday, the Student Association set up

table in Norton Hall to collect

signatures

tor the petition. Within a five-hour span,
300 students and approximately 140 -fac-

ulty members signed it.

Since the General Alumni Association
is an entity separate from the University
administration and its governing body
plans and conducts its own social activities, the Alumni Association is unaffected
by actions taken by the University.
James Lucas, the B.A.C. director of
membership, was not available, but a
spokesman asserted that entrance into the
B.A.C. is not affected by race, creed or
color. There are, however, a number of
requirements that have to be met before
an individual can become a club member.
Among these is the stipulation that the
applicant must be sponsored by two present members of the club. At the same
time a financial report is required, the
influence of which differs with each individual case. The monthly dues required
of each member vary with occupation or
individual status. For example, some college students were charged lower rates
in an attempt to keep the membership of
the club expanding.
These rates and expenses are contained
in the by-laws of the club. At the top of
the list of classifications of membership is
the classification, “Ellicott Club member.”
The Ellicott Club in fact owns the lease
on the B.A.C. and is able to terminate the
clubs at any time. Members of the Elli-

Other figures such as Canon Hugh G.
Carmichel and Canon William L. Bailey
have denounced the alleged racist membership practices of the alleged racist
membership practices of the B.A.C. referring specifically to refusal to grant
membership to Dr. Henry C. Everett, a
prominent black surgeon. He is only one
of many prominent black citizens who
faced difficulty in gaining entrance into
the B.A.C.
The reason for Dr. Everett’s refusal of
entrance into club membership was given
as the ‘falling through’ of a number of
his sponsors although no documentation
of this was available.
Others have joined the movement denouncing the racial practices of the B.A.C.,
such as Very Rev. James M. Demske, who
has since ordered Canisius College to cancel all functions at the club. Other clubs
have followed this policy of cancelling
events to be held at the club’s facilities,
among them the Michigan Y.M.C.A. Luncheon Club, the Montefiore Club and the
B’nai Brith.
David Krajewski, director of the Alumni
Office, although sympathetic with the
cause of the Student Association and the
ad-hoc committee of the Alumni Association believed that the whole movement

Alumni Association was considering it as
a location for its dinner-dance, a different
site would have been chosen.

cott Club hold bonds

giving

them nwnerCau-

casians” may hold bonds.

Clergy condemns

A number of prominent Church figures
have spoken out against the discriminatory policies of the B.A.C. The Rt. Rev.
Harold B. Robinson, Episcopal bishop coadjutor, declared: “All I know is that
there are no Negroes who have membership and I know that Negroes have applied for membership.”
Rev. Robinson attended the Law Day
reception held-at the B.A.C. and has since
been criticized by a number of Episcopal
priests for attending.

Attempts to change

-When it became evident that there
would be trouble over the location of the
dinner-dance, Mr. Krajewski made an attempt to have the location changed to
the Statler Hilton, Parkway Inn, or the
Hearthstone Manor, all of which proved
futile.
The Dinner-Dance Committee of the
Alumni Association had settled on a location more than a year ago and had chosen

the B.A.C. because of its lower rates. The
Alumni Association has not in fact been
a regular member of the B.A.C. since
1963.
Alexander Aversano, class of 1936, vicepresident of Foster-Milburn Co., was until
recently president of the Alumni Board.
Mr. Aversano was confident that if he
was still a member of the Alumni Association he would have counseled the Association to sh'y away from the B.A.C. because of their racial prejudice.
It was disclosed Tuesday that University President Martin Meyerson would not
attend this year’s function.
President Meyerson said the Alumni
Association “is an independent group and
has many social events and I go to some
and don't go to others
and this is one
I'm not going to.”
He added that “University resources in
alumni activities should be directed
toward educational purposes such as seminars, programs in continuing education,
bibliographical aids, and in publications.
“If the alumni want fun and games,
fine but they should pay for their own
fun and games.”

Committee met
The ad-hoc committee of the Alumni
Association doesn't understand why the
facilities. It is certain that if the Association made its intentions known, and
gave reasons for the use of the facilities,
that some arrangement could be made
with the University.
The committee met Tuesday to discuss
further action if the Alumni Association
doesn’t withdraw from the B.A.C.
The Select Committee for Equal Opportunity, headed by James Moss and
Robert Fisk, alerted the Alumni Association that it seriously questions “the desireability of holding University-related
activities at the B.A.C. .
and asked
the Association “to reconsider the decision that has already been made.”

The Kremlin has abandoned plans to pressure for

According to sources close to the Republican presidential candidate, a series of diplomatic moves involving the Soviets would play

Nixon has been reticent about what he would do specifically to

Freshmen students will vote
Monday for the Freshman New
Student Affairs Coordinator. Polls
will be open from 9 a.m. until 6

Students of the State University at Buffalo voted this week in

favor of the controversial mandatory athletic fee.
In a near-record turnout for a
referendum, voters also approved
a proposal for the appointment of
a committee whose function will
be to determine athletic policy on
campus. The committee is to be
made up of an equal number of
students and faculty members.
The total number of students
who voted in the referendum was
a sharp increase over that of last
May when a total of 1247 voters
defeated a similar proposal concerning mandatory athletic fees
by a 23 vote margin. The vote

this week on the question of the
student-faculty athletic committee totaled 3126 with 2556 voting
‘yes’ and 561 voting ‘no’. On the
separate question of a mandatory
fee, 2046 students voted ‘yes’ out
of a total of 3352.
Student Association President
Richard Schwab made the following statement concerning the
referendum:
“The unprecedented vote on
the issue of mandatory intercollegiate athletic fees certainly
shows that students are interested
in how their money is spent. I
think more important than the
voluntary versus mandatory question is the fact that students

�between the lines
by Robert P. Sawicki
Every other week it seems you can pick
up a paper and read the statement* of
some State Department official—or his
European counterpart—explaining what
wonderful advances our aid, protection,
etc., has brought, to the local inhabitants
of some underdeveloped country.

Take for example Burma, which has a
long tradition of British rule. The official
newspaper there, Working Peoples’ Daily,
reports that ten persons accused of witchcraft were killed in August by villagers in
the Northern Chin Hills. UN, SecretaryGeneral U Thant must side with the tricky
ten, for to propose that a discussion concerning a Vietnam bombing cessation be
brought before the General Assembly—in
order that some influence upon the United States policy might result—would in-

deed, be witchcraft if successful. Thousands of people for three years have tried
words and visual demonstrations with negligible results.

Biafran situation
by

Joe

Castrilli

Spectrum Staff Reporter

It is now more than five months since
Biafra proclaimed its independence from
Nigeria. Yet the incredible weight of suffering and misery continues to grow at a
furious pace.
Nigerian forces have methodically succeeded in pressing five million Ibo tribesmen into an area barely 50 miles square.
There are only seven hospitals remaining in Biafran hands and these are poorly
equipped to cope with the thousands of
homeless children and women.
Because of the lack of food and medical
supplies, proper medical care can oniybe
given to a few of the sick, starving and
wounded people.
As one doctor put it, “I just try to deal
with the diseases that kill people most
quickly
malaria in children, pneumonia
and dysentery. You don’t try to find out
what else is wrong. Ninety per cent of the
people at the clinics have protein malnutrition, and I can’t do anything about
—

it.’

There are members of the Red Cross

lives on the line.

Nigerian army this past week, four Red
Cross workers were found among the
dead.
As one Nigerian colonel described it,
“they were urged to get away, but they
insisted on staying and were shot down.
The first Nigerian troops entering a city
always kill all white men they find, thinking they are mercenaries. Usually it is a
day or more before responsible officials
get in to halt the killing.”
So the Nigerian army slowly tightens its
“death grip” on what remains of Biafra,
Many Nigerian officers hope that continued starvation of thousands of Biafrans
will place pressure on Biafran leader Odumegwua Ojukwu to surrender.
At the same time, the Biafran leader
hopes to arouse world sentiment and support for his country by displaying his
starving people to the world and perhaps
receiving attention at the United Nations.

A little more than a year ago, Robert
Sherrill, writing in The Nation, lamented
over the state of the 90th Congress, which
spent its time accomplishing nothing and
slapping at symbols. Now, the greatest
symbol slapper of them all, George Wallace, is making a big splash in American
politics by, in essence, slapping at the
symbols. Law and order, anarchism, communism, the common people—all fall into
his major themes, but what specific program has the man constructed? |I know
one: If Wallace is elected President it
anyone should lie down before his car,
Wallace will squish him like so many
mosquitos.

Filibusters being in season this year.
Senators Javits and Goodell, both Republicans from New York, implied a threat of
a filibuster in speeches on the floor of
the Senate Oct. 8 in order to prevent a
$130 million cut in federal aid to the
sta e’s Medicare program. (The cuts will
total $500 million in New York and 22
other states.) Both Javits and Goodell advocate an unconditional halt to the bombing of North Vietnam without the need of
reciprocal action (the war being the reason behind the spending cuts). While these
acts may not exactly jibe with Nixon—“Let our goal not be more Americans on
welfare rolls, but more Americans on payrolls.”—these acts are taking some of the
wind out of the O’Dwyer campaign. Likewise, Richard McCarthy of Buffalo may
not be the best representative anywhere,
but his opponents, an unknown political
hack for the Republicans, and Mr. (tactical
nuclear war against China) Pillion for
the Conservatives, are much, much worse.
A big help to his opponents will be the
revulsion of administration policies and
other bits, like the bumper sticker: Give
Max the Ax,—this a punitive action for
Max’s support for gun legislation. As these
campaigns develop, the issues will be the
same as on the national level to a certain
extent, and it will be interesting to note
if anything interesting and/or productive
can be produced.
Explaining the difference between the
Republican, Democratic Presidential nominees and the two-party system in general, I, F. Stone has this to offer: “It was

Bombing goes on and
PARIS The United States reaffirmed
it will not halt bombing North Vietnam
until Hanoi agrees to a reciprocal act of
de-escalating the Vietnam War.
“There has been no change in the American position. There has been no change
whatsoever on their (Hanoi’s) part," said
W. Averell Harriman, U.S. chief delegate
to talks here with North Vietnam.
His statement to newsmen dampened
speculation in Paris that President Johnson might order a complete halt to the
bombardment of North Vietnam to help
Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey’s
presidential election campaign.
Harriman spoke just before the 25th
session of the Paris talks in which Hanoi

be made throughout President Johnson’s
time in office, ending Jan. 20. They said
the next President will have to decide
what course of action to take.
Harriman said it was “up to North
Vietnam to meet us.” He said Johnson
ordered a limited bombing halt in March
in the hope of bringing peace nearer in
Vietnam.

It did help bring these talks, designed
to cool down the war to permit a peace
conference. But these talks have made no
progress.

“We cannot stop the bombings until we

can seriously believe that there will be

restraint on their part,” Harriman said.

Harriman said he planned to warn the
North Vietnamese delegation headed by
Xuan Thuy against believing the Communist forces are winning in Vietnam and
thus regard themselves in a strong bargaining position.

Richard M. Nixon makes a point at his “biggest and

He was greeted by 400 shouting protesters who were
later attacked by the police.

Police attack protestors at Nixon rally
Approximately 400 demonstrators marched into Memorial Auditorium Monday night to show
their disapproval of Presidential

candidate Richard Nixon.
After they were denied seats
in the upper levels of the hall,
they marched back down to the
com'ention floor and stood at the
side of the stage on which Nixon
would appear. They were orderly,
and began shouting such slogans
as “Two, four, six, eight, We don’t
want a fascist state", and “NixonWallace—both the same."
Suddenly, the Buffalo Police
moved in and ordered the demonstrators to get out of the Aud.
The demonstrators obeyed the
requests of the police, and began to file out of the hall. Without warning, the cops began to
charge into the ranks of the

Outside the auditorium, a cam
era was taken out of a demon
stralor’s hands by a policeman,
thrown on the ground, and
smashed. Many protestors had by
this time regrouped, and the night
air was filled with shouts of
hatred for the "pig cops."
Together again, the protestors
began marching down Main
Street, toward Broadway. Upon
reaching Lafayette Square, and
while attempting to cut across it,
the group was, without provocation. again dispersed by the police.
Most people ran and managed
to merge on Main Street, and
shortly afterward the marchers
slowly dispersed, at the instruc-

tions of the leader's of the dem-

onstration, who feared more police violence.

community and at which internationally recognized men are Invited
to speak. These have been excellent, but generally do not start on
time. At one, many of the audience left, thinking the session had been
called off. What can be done to assure the audience, some of whom
travelled a great distance, that the coming symposium will begin on
time and as scheduled?
A.: Dr. M. Feldman, director of the symposium, recalled the “case
of the late start.” Just as the session was about to begin, the
discovered that his briefcase containing notes and slides was locked,
and the key had been left behind in the motel. A courier was dispatched, but there was a 45-minute delay. Dr. Feldman said that everiy

audiences will not have to indulge the guest speakers beyond a reasonable courtesy. The next symposium, entitled “Research in Community

symposium, see the Campus Calendar.
Q.: Why mi Hi* Allenhurst but schedule curtailed this year?
What can be done?
A.: Mr. R. Cudeck, transportation supervisor, stated: “It is true
we started out with a lighter bus schedule at the beginning of the
school year. The lighter schedule was thought adequate and the cutback in services was necessary because bus operating costs had increased more than 15% over last year. There were, however, many
complaints which were thought justifiable and a revised schedule was
instituted in spite of the increased costs. By this time, all Allenhurst
residents are benefitting from the additional service, which now
offers a bus every ten minutes during the morning peak period, from
7:10 a.m. until 8:30 a.m. The bus schedules will again be reviewed
with the Allenhurst House Councils, when organized, and additional
afternoon and/or evening schedules will be set up, according to students’ needs.
Q.: Why can't students be assigned to the old language labs in
Crosby to serve the overflow in the new language labs in Hayes C?
A.: Mr. Eugene Miller, director of language labs, stated there is
an unprecedented number of students enrolled in foreign languages
this year, but it is hoped they will all be accommodated in the new
labs. Initially there were many maintenance problems in the new labs,
resulting in a loss of time
about ten student stations were inoperable. Repairs and adjustments have now been made, and all 49 booths
in the new language labs are in good working order. This should be
sufficient to handle all enrolled student needs. In the event the number proves inadequate, the old labs will be utilized, but at this point
such use is not warranted.

Q.: Why doesn't Norton Hall have shower facilities for visiting
and commuting students?
and at
A.: During the inception of the planning of Norton Hall
that time the University was privately endowed with limited enrollment— no thought was given to this kind of service because we did
not have the pressing needs. Funds are not now available for this type
of expenditure. In addition, such facilities would require a rather
large renovation of the building which would not be approved at this
time in view of the over-all University plans for the new campus.

Q.: Why wore there no arrangements made by the Student Association for law students to vote at the Law School on the athletic fee

George Wallace, at Memorial Auditorium Friday,
manifests a new direction of American politics.

of American society. As the candidate himself claims, this is not
a sectional movement. George
Wallace and his American Independent Party appeal not to one
region of the country but to an
old tradition of American politics
that is essentially non-geographi-

cal: the grass roots; the indefinable, but not intangible, little
man.

Presidential aspirant
It is generally believed that the
340,730 voters who elected him
governor of Alabama in 1962 began the movement that has come
to be called the “Wallace Phenomenon.” In 1964 George Wallace
captured a startling 43% of the
votes in the preferential Presidential primaries in the key states
of Wisconsin, Indiana and Maryland. Beginning in California in
1968, support for Wallace as a
Presidential aspirant rumbled
across the entire nation and even
won him a spot on the sacrosanct
ballot of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts by a considerable
margin: he needed 61,000 signatures of Wallace men there and
he received 135,000.
Who is the Wallace man? J. C.
Dunn of the Charlotte Observer
has said: “You just can’t tell. You
look and peer and squint at people, add them up and size them
up in your mind, and what do
you get? Nothing but a huge,
amorphous, middle-class mass. No
common denominators like beards
or brawn or beauty or wealth or
wickedness or even starry-eyed
political pipe-dreamers . . .” Indescribable as the Wallace man
is, certain generalities can safely
be made about his character.

Indictments of youth

In terms of the breadth of the
Wallace appeal, age is not a factor. But interms of the orientation of the average Wallace man,
the number of years one has collected is definitely a factor. The
resentment of youth which is a
part of the chemistry of a Wal-

lace man is not because of youth
itself, but because of the popular
misconception of what youth represents in America: Irritating dissent to an American war, illegitimate demonstration for a confusing array of causes and overt
rejection of the "visual” values
of American society. This array
of indictments is not true of the
numerical majority of American
youth who still advocate the conservative tradition of old values,
but to the Wallace man they
might as well be true. Unfortunately, he thinks in terms of the
popular distortions of the syndicated press.
This resentment of American
youth is in close correlation to
another characteristic of the Wallace man: He is- suspicious of
higher education. The popular
notion of the typical American
college or university is that it is
a hotbed of dissenting, destructive
and liberal activity which dares
to pit intellectualism against the
flag, God and the President. It
is a vociferous, disrespectful
chancre.

Experience necessary
Related to this same suspicion
of youth and higher education is
the belief that all worthwhile or
viable opinion on a subject comes
only from people with experience.
For instance, because a lot of
demonstrators have never had the
experience of that step behind
the voting curtail, they are expected to have nothing worthwhile to say about the political
arena or the issues that it involves.

Above all, the Wallace man is
a man in the process of reacting
to the elitism of American politics. He is reacting to the long
political silence of the little man.
In a sense, he is in a ..state of
revolution. All revolutions begin
with a grievance and his is that
no one has paid attention to him.

The grump
by Steese

There stands Hubert Horatio Humphrey, stalwart
in his denunciation of the tyranny of any minority
that would attempt to impede or block the will of
the majority. (The State of Pennsylvania primary
was won by Eugene McCarthy with some 428,000
votes, while giving to Humphrey-Johnson—one of
the first admissions that they are indistinguishable
—72,000 and to Robert Kennedy, 65,000. At the
“democratic” Democratic Convention, Pennsylvania
cast more than 100 of its 130 votes for Hubert H.
Humphrey—next president of the United States?
Hubert Humphrey stands for the will of the
people. (46% of the population would rather have
some other choices than the selections to be offered in November.) Hubert Humphrey stands for
decisions openly made at the ballot box, (The South,
on which Humphrey relied heavily, supplied the
votes to keep the Senate from even voting on
Fortas’ nomination. Filibusters by our side aren’t
really filibusters.)

Choices stink

could probably have wrought this year (if Ted K.
lives long enough.)
And “poor old” H. H. H. H. H. H. (the Horribly
Hapless Honorable Hubert Horatio Humphrey—the
honorable being a strictly semantic term.) He is the
underdog candidate behind which all those with
any vestige of liberality must unite to smite down
the forces of evil as personified by Nixon, R. There
are a great many things wrong with this unification
plea. Four years ago the Republicans learned something. Not very much, but then it is a historical
principle of great force that political parties aren’t
supposed to be bright.

Year for learning
This will be the year that perhaps the Democrats learn something. For example, if one abdicates the northern industrial states by nominating
non-entities acceptable to the South for both President and Vice President, one not only loses the
election, one does a smashing fine job of it. I
would be delighted to see Hubert run third in total
and electoral votes, but I will accept either one or
the other.

These are the positions of Hubert Humphrey as
I see them. These are the reasons why I am not
greatly upset that I cannot vote in November. The
choices stink.
Some friends wrote me recently that they felt
that they had to vote against Wallace. That is a
fine idea. Unfortunately the booths are not set up
to accept negative votes. To vote against Wallace,
you have to vote for somebody else.

Wallace and Nixon and Humphrey. A southern
governor of some merit in some things who has
carried a crusade against Big Government and
“pseudo-intellectuals” into the realm of big-time
politics, Wallace believes in “common sense" and
the common man. One senses Tom Paine and
Thomas Jefferson whirling in their graves as he
speaks. Common sense is better than brains any
day. Don’t think—do.
Richard Nixon: Vice President who spent eight
years with a President who did virtually nothing;
second-in-command during eight years of stagnation and now forthrightly promising to lead us back
into the same thing again. Nixon's main asset at
this poini is to convince suburbanites that, while
Wallace is obviously a dangerous bumpkin, Richard
Nixon has arrived at the same conclusions through
the force of his razor sharp intellect.

Frightening President
He will be a frightening President because he is

so damned simple. He believes in the platitudes

that he is uttering; he believes that he can turn
back the divergent forces seeking social change by
a resolute stand on law and order (standing in the
school house door for example?)
He was a winner when the Democrats nominated
Humphrey. It may well be a very bloody and repressive four years under Dicky Bird. I have infinite faith in Nixon's lack of ability and inate
stupidity, however. 1 suspect that he will leave
himself vulnerable on a multitude of fronts and
that, come 1972, a spectre will rise from the shores
of Massachusetts and send Nixon down to the defeat which any reasonable Democratic candidate

A former Robert Kennedy supporter who is
being driven into the Humphrey camp by Nixonphobia tried to explain the unification-out-of-necessity theory to me. He failed miserably. 1 respectfully submit that any McCarthy or Kennedy supporter who is rallying to save Humphrey had best
look at what he is saving. To wit: Richard (THE
Mayor). Daley’s ass, and Lyndon Johnson’s face—or is it the other way around? I have a certain
difficulty in telling the difference.
Johnson would accept no substitutes on the war.
He handpicked a candidate and made sure that
the platform read properly. I will be damned if I
will vote for a) a marionnette, or b) someone who
can’t tell right from wrong, or c) someone who can,
but is afraid to make Daddy-bird mad by saying so.

Can't make choice
If President LBJ is right, then Humphrey
should be able to win by running on that, despite
the fact that incredible numbers of registered Democrats indicated that they, at least, found the war
an issmvlf Johnson is wrong, then it must be faced.
Humphrey apparently does not have the equipment to make either one of those choices, so he
loses. Helwould probably lose if he made either
one of them, too-—but then he is the one who wants
to be President, a highly suspicious attitude itself,
I should think.
God, it is said, takes care of fools, drunks and
the United States of America, We will probably
survive, somehow, after the electorate drapes Hubert Humphrey around the neck of the Democratic
l*ah:y like a decaying albatross on Nov. 5, It will
probably cost a few thousand more lives in Vietnam
and in the streets, while Nixon diddles around learning that both the FBI and the Pentagon are fallible
and that "secret magic formulas" for ending wars

One assumes God will take matters into his own

China in a “limited land war” in Asia. Or do you
suppose that perhaps—George Wallace notwithstanding—God is getting a little tired of wiping up

The American Civil Liberties
Union has released its recommendations for the academic freedom of high school students,
whose rights to live under “rule
by law,” as opposed to “rule by
personality,” have allegedly been
abused by school administrators.
The recommendations which
were six years in the making,
included the following:

The right to organize political groups, demonstrate and
wear buttons which do not disrupt the schools;
The right to have channels

�Selective degree
Vance Packard to lecture system proposed

Fi 'all Weekend

01

Vance Packard, author and social critic, will speak on “The Bewildered Sexes" at 1 p.m. Monday
in Haas Lounge as the opening
feature of Fall Weekend.
Internationally

recognized as
one of the most important social
documentors of our time, Mr.

Packard has written such bestsellers as The Status Seekers, The
Hidden Persuaders, and The
Waste Makers. And in 1968, The
Sexual Wilderness: The Contemporary Upheave! in Male-Female
Relationships gave America the
first significant study since the
Kinsey report of the changing relationships between the sexes
and the shifting standards of acceptable behavior.

Mr. Packard's educational back-

A proposal that University College offer students the option of
choosing their major in one of
the seven faculties has been made
by Dr. Charles Ebert of the Geography Department in a letter
to President Meyerson.
Under the current University
structure, there are seven faculties, each corresponding to a separate field. These faculties are:
Social Sciences and Administra-

ground includes a master’s degree from Columbia University’s
Graduate School of Journalism.
He holds Distinguished Alumni
Awards from Columbia and Penn
State University.

Articles by Mr, Packard have
appeared in practically all leading periodicals, including The
Atlantic Monthly, Reader’s Digest
and Harper’s. The only American

tion, Arts and Letters, Natural
Sciences and Mathematics, Law
and Jurisprudence, Engineering
and Applied Sciences, Health and
Related Professions, and Educational Studies.
Each faculty is divided into
one or more departments, and
students major in one of these
departments.
In this “selective system” suggested by Dr. Ebert, a student
majoring in a faculty of the University could fulfill his major requirements with courses in different, but related departments.
Dr, Ebert said: “It would still
give him a solid degree, without

on four years of study and personal interviews in the U.S. and
abroad. A question-answer period will follow.

“I

do

not believe

in doing

away with departments,” he ex-

plained. “The department should
continue to offer pre-professional

programs. The student will have
the choice of either majoring in a
department or a faculty.”

Not 'second rate'
Dr. Ebert refuted the possibility that graduates with a degree
in a broader major would risk
being considered “second rate
citizens.”

He indicated that in

some cases graduates possessing

a broader based degree would be
more acceptable than graduates
with a more specialized background.

“As a chairman of geography,
I feel that a superior major in
economics or any other field,
would be a better candidate for
graduate studies in geography
than a mediocre student who has
a BA in geography,” he continued.
The curricula presently are determined by the departments, faculties or University College. The
decision for such a program
“could not be made unilaterally,”
Dr. Ebert asserted. “The University College, however, would
make the final decision.”
For such a “selective degree
system” to be instituted “there
has to be a transition period of
two years at the longest,” indicated Dr. Ebert,” There are a lot
of students committed to a department.”

/‘One of the most common
myths about football players is
that they’re dumb. They really
aren't. Their social environment
doesn't stimulate creativity, bi)t
some of them are bright guys."
So speaks Speed Powrie, former
football player turned SDS activist.
Born Charles Raymond Powrie

almost a legend on campus at
the State University of Buffalo.
Since he made the transition from
football player to radical, he has
become one of the most avid
and articulate spokesmen for SDS.

“I wasn’t actually kicked off
the team. Doc Urich saw me on
television during the Dow Chemical demonstration. He asked me
what the hell I was doing, and I
told him that I was doing what I
thought was right. He gave me
an ultimatum either quit demonstrating or lose my football

or learned all he’d like to, but
he is glad he came to school in
Buffalo. “I'm lucky to have come
here and to have been exposed
to radical thought. I would have
been a football player with liberal views. Now I’m beginning
to grasp all the things that affect
my life
the dynamics of the
situation. It’s strange, but now
that I’m thinking and understanding, I feel a lot less alienated
more involved.”

However, he doesn’t think that
the State University of Buffalo is
the “Berkeley of the East” yet.
"Meyerson is good at his job,
which is to block the movement,”
he says. “That’s why he was
brought in.”
As Speed Powrie continues to
speak, you realize that he has an
impressively well-developed and

rational political philosophy. Regarding the current political situation, though, Speed either can’t
or won’t support any specific candidate. “I don’t believe in
toral politics,” he says.

Come the revolution
He continues to say that “the
greatest thing that could happen
to the United States would be a
socialist revolution with a minimal amount of lives lost. We have
to show an alternative to people
not a utopian one
but we
must get out of this insanity. Our
generation is in a funny position.
We either have to change the system radically or eradicate the
world.”
In pursuit of this aim, SDS has
changed its focus this year. “Instead of going to political rallies
and being attacked, we plan to
leaflet in shopping centers and
start making contacts with the
industrial working class
to begin a form of internal education.
Our only alternative for meaningful change rests with the students
and the white working class.”

Record review-

How it Was
The only thing that saves The
Great Society’s second album is
the ultra-modern voice of Grade
Slick. The second Ip entitled How
it Was is very appropriate for
the fnusic presented inside. The
music is generally boring and
rigid. It lacks much of the flexibility that is required for the
new style of musical fanatic.
The Great Society claims to be
the group that started the whole
San Francisco sound way back
in the dark of 1966. They were
composed of able musicians that
just couldn’t seem to hang together. The guitar work of Jerry
Slick and his brother at times hits
the exciting notes that would be
expected of the group that started
the new sound in music.
How it Was is composed of
songs found in some dark corner
of a recording studio, probabiy
discarded after the group’s failure
to really click with the listening
public. It is a congiomoration of
styles that highly accentuates the

inconsistencies

that

the

possessed at the time.

group

Taken as a whole this s Ip is
really a bomb. Musically it is unimportant, as far as its deviations
of style from the norms of the
time. It really couldn’t last in this
day and age because the music
today is so vastly flexible that
styles change from ' minute to
minute.

Perhaps some of the major
contributions that this group did
make were: The public attention
given to the music coming from
the San Francisco scene and the
bringing to the American public
th talents and voice of Grade
Slick. Her voice, even back in
1966, was cold and computerlike. The thing that makes her
such a mysterious figure is her
voice and her manner. She is a
cool, calculating chick who always
thinks about what she is saying
and never makes foolish unfounded statements.

’

Faced with the choice of quitting or being fired, Speed chose
to “resign!’ and copp with the resulting financial difficulties. “At
the time,' I felt like exposing the
whole thing. I made a mistake
by not doing that. You have to
make people understand what’s
really going on.”

Player to revolutionary
Although he was firmly opposed to this week’s referendum
on a mandatory athletic fee.
Speed has by no means turned

It’s a good example of what sports

Student and Establishment
is topic of NSA conference
Difficulties students have with
the Establishment, Establishment
attacks on students, and discovery
of what people want to do politically and educationally were discussed at the recent National Student Association conference for
regional chairmen.
Richard R. Miller, New York
State regional chairman, indicated
that there are problems with the
right wing on campuses throughout the country. Citing the plight
of student governments in California, Mr. Miller said their funds
have been cut and are controlled
by University administrators. He
also mentioned that a student at
an Eastern university was asked
by an administrator to be an FBI
agent.
Transcripts of a speech made
by Tom Hayden, National SDS
founder, at the summer NSA Congress are in the process of being
subpoenaed by the FBI. Mr. Hayden and others involved in the
August Chicago demonstrations
are 'before the House Committee
on Un-American Activities.
Mr. Miller said that “NSA has
always been on the “side of aca-

demic freedom and judicial due
process. Activities of HUAC have
proven themselves to be violations of everything due process
and academic freedom stand for.
NSA doesn’t want the McCarthy
era to happen again.”

May go to court

Also, NSA may go to court
over the Congressional act which
states that a student is liable to

lose his national loan under the
National Defense Education Act
if he violates university rules in
a demonstration.
Mr. Miller further indicated
that NSA is going to provide legal
funds and attorneys.
The other problem confronting
NSA is that of bringing students
back into the political process.
Mr. Miller feels that “the students
were linked with McCarthy and
now have to link with another.”
NSA is a legal lobbying organization and has the ability to lobby
state and national legislatures.
“As part of this desire to have
students begin to think in terms
of what they can do on campus
and nationally, NSA is sponsoring Time Out Day,” Mr, Miller

New radical group
to free universities
There is a new group on the
national scene known as the New
University Conference, which defines its membership as “radical
graduate students, faculty membets and Movement intellectuals.”
The group’s primary purpose is
to work for a university free of
the racism and imperialism which
the NUC feels characterizes
American society.
Universities are increasingly
part of the system seeking to
exploit and are geared to producing scholars sympathetic to
exploitation, the group explains.
The NUC wants to “freely express the radical content of our
lives” and fight “aggressive and
manipulative suppression” wherever it occurs.
Monopolization of university
control and exploitation of graduate assistants and professor-technicians are among the campus
manifestations of suppression
cited.
The NUC will organize local

He added that it will provide

them." Time Out Day is scheduled

Buffy St. Marie and Richie Ha-

minds. Of different styles. Both
entertainment phenomena.
Buffy, a warble-voice Indian
wonder, sings of her people. She
sings of the sorrows of the American Indian. She composed two
songs that express her feelings of
the injustice done to the Indian
in “Now That the Buffalo’s Gone”
and “My Country ‘Tis of Thy People You’re Dying.”
In speaking out against war,
she wrote an all-encompassing
truth applicable to all wars in her
famous “Universal Soldier.” Another of her tender melodies on
the quick-silver nature of love is
“Until It’s Time For You To Go,”
Richie Havens communicates

with his guitar. Tuning his instrument in an unorthodox open E,
he manipulates chords not possible with standard tuning. Doing
such numbers as Hey Joe, Just
Like a Woman, and Follow, Havens sets an entertainment process in motion that makes an audience respond to his bag.
This dual delight concert happens Oct. 20 at 8:30 p.m. in Kleinhans Music Hall as part of Fall
Weekend activities. Some of the
other entertainment planned is a
concert Oct. 16 by the New Chicago Lunch Band, a mixer with

during the weekend will be the

�Voice of the people aroused Student exchange
by transferal of local priest program available
James

by

Brennan

A program giving students the
opportunity to study business life
and careers in other nations is
being offered by the Association
for the International Exchange
of Students in Economics or Commerce.

Spectrum Staff Reporter

Vox Populi, a new activist
group, is bucking the institutionalized system of the Roman Catholic Church.
Last week I interviewed two of
Vox Populi’s leaders before they
addressed a group of students at
Canisius College. The two spokesmen for the group are Mr. Francis Greune, president- and Mr.
Theodore Callisto, vice president.
“We believe the Church as a
Christian community is the people,” said Mr. Greune. "Vox Popuii was formed to give the people a vehicle with which to study
the Church and effectively act on
the principles of Christ.”
“The actual formation of Vox
Populi came as a result of the
transferring of seven priests from
teaching positions at St. John
Vianney’s Seminary in East Aurora, to parishes, because of their
disagreement with the Pope’s
stand on birjh control,” he said.

The AIESEC, in its third year
with the State University system,
provides an opportunity for students planning business careers
to gain practical experience by
living and working in foreign na-

tions.

Two voices
t

Francis Creune, president, and
Theodore Callisto, vice-president,
of Vox Populi.

Birth control was impetus
He continued: “We had been
thinking about this type of organization for a long time but never
had an impetus to organize. With
this birth control controversy we
finally were spurred to get together, so now we have a central
committee of 60 people and new
members inquiring every day.”
He listed the concerns of the
Vox Populi movement as academic freedom for priests with no ecclesiastic reprisals, re examination of church structures, more
dialogue between leaders and
laity and that Buffalo Bishop McNulty should give an account of
his stewardship to the people of
-

the diocese.

“Our organization would not
have been formed if not for this
existing void between the hierarchy and laity. This idea of involvement by the people in the
Roman Catholic structure is not a
new one. Twenty-five years ago in
Chicago, a group of Catholic intellectuals got together to form
the Christian Family Movement.”
The Christian Family Movement has a world membership of
100,000 people, with 40,000 members coming from Canada and the
United States.

Pay, pray, and obey
The program of this C.F.M.

or-

ganization is to make the individual more effective in the family
unit, and in turn to increase the
role'of the Catholic family in the
Church structure.
Mr. Callisto said: “These intellectuals formed the movement to

get away from the old ideas of
'pay, pray, and obey' and develop
a new philosophy of ‘observe,

judge, and act’.”
“Pope John XXIII in encyclical
from the Second Vatican Council
adopted this slogan of 'observe,
judge, and act’ in one of the passages referring to positive Christion action in today’s world,” he
explained.
Mr, Greune and his wife were
president-couple of the Buffalo
chapter of the Christian Family
Movement. Mr. Callisto and his
wife were vice president-couple

of the group.

They both resigned from their
C. F. M. posts to devote their full
attentions working with the Vox
Populi movement. "We didn’t
want to divide our time between
two organizations, that’s the main
reason we resigned,” said Mr.
Callisto.

Both Mr Greune and Mr. Callisto think the "Roman Catholic
Church should be a circular arrangement, not a ladder structure
with a void existing between the
hierarchy and laity.”

Voice of the people
The name of the group,

.

.

As possible fulure offspring of
Vox Populi that will give more

voice to the people, they suggest
the formation of active pastoral
councils on the parish level, a
stronger priest senate and a board
composed of member s of the
Christian community to act on
the issues of divorce, abortion and
Canon Law revision.
Vox Populi is in the process of
adopting an official organizational
constitution and also affiliating
with the National Association of

Laymen. The N. A. L. holds views
similar to Vox Populi’s on this
idea of concerned Christian ac-

tivist commitments.
How does the Bishop feel about
having such an abrasive voice in
his community?

When asked to give a statement
about Vox Populi, the Bishop and
Chancellory declined to offer any
comment.

The Bishop's prayers
Mr. Greune has approached
Bishop McNulty many times in an
attempt to have some type of dialogue. "We’re sending him a copy
of our group's policy outlines, but
he refuses to talk to us," said Mr.
Greune.

Non-Catholic reaction to Vox

Expressing great hope in youth
and commenting on the recent
walk-outs by many Catholics during services, Mr. Callisto said: “I
hope the youth of today don’t
walk out on the church because
they can make it what they want
it to be.”

In continuing on this discussion
of protesting, he said: “The degree of militancy to which our
group might go is perhaps manning picket lines or even stopping
the weekly contribution of church
donations.
“Instead we would set up an
escrow fund, so the people aren't
just ducking the responsibility of
giving because they're cheap. And
they would continue to give the
same amount as they usually do,
but it would not be forwarded to
the church, till Vox Populi’s goals
are achieved."
Though Vox Populi is in the
formative stage, the nature of its
aims and the determination of its
supporters seem to be a growing
force demanding a voice in the

Founded in 1948, the AIESEC
is a non-profit student exchange
program operated entirely by college students. The program works
as follows: An American university “sells” the plan to a local
business. The money received
supports the annual budget of
AIESEC in the United States.
Universities in other countries
also arrange for business sponsors. The countries then exchange
university men and women to
work full-time at a business of
their choice for a period of eight
to 18 months.
The AIESEC chapter at the

State University of Buffalo has
actively participated in this exchange program.
During the
summer, University graduate student Dennis Gold spent ten weeks
in Oxford University, Great Britain, employed in the marketing
department of Britain’s largest
manufacturer and exporter of anesthetic equipment. Concurrently, former Student Association
Treasurer Douglas Braun worked
in Glasgow, Scotland, in the advertising department of one of
Glasgow’s daily newspapers.

Lost in the Funhouse
to his brother’s back. Things fall

by Darrell Dodge
Specfrum

apart.

Stall Reporter

Lost in the Funhouse, by John Barth, Doubleday, 1968.
The harried Author addresses
his audience: “The reader! You,
dogged, uninsultable, print-oriented bastard.” We read on. Has the
Author gone mad? The reader?
Mad indeed! When the self sees
its image reproduced to infinity
in a Funhouse’s opposite mirrors,
it might turn away pleased by
the illusion, or it might (if it
has reason to suspect its Own
reality) linger and ask, “Which
is T.7” This questioning selfconscious, schizophrenic,; and often g'rotesquely hilarious
is the
essence of John Barth's new collection of 14 stories.
—

—

A writer operates just this side
of some dangerous ground, a twilight zone where words, himself
and his whole purpose for writing seem intangible, disembodied,
even ridiculous. This time, instead of running from it, Barth
operates (albeit as 'an oceanographer observes the depths from
the safety of a bathoscaph) and
if a bit self-indulgent
the result
is fascinating.
—

—

The stories follow no linear
pattern (perhaps Barth’s answer
to McLUhan?) and each one can
only be completely “read” in the
context of the entire book. Stories

play off against, and with, each
other like words in a very tight
poem, yet their complexities create a rich chaos strung together
with symbol and metaphor.

In “Life Story,” the rhetorician’s practice of building, then
bringing together, in high haranque, the essence of his tale, is
ridiculed. ‘
Though many of the stories are
meant for tape
and we have
to deal with print
the desired
effect of a “disembodied Authorial Voice” can, be achieved by
just keeping the recorded voice
in mind. In his experiments Barth
develops the authorial voice it,

of a great sphere, Ambrose is

who is connected by his stomach

Conflict of conscience
On a trip to the beach .with
his family, Ambrose (and the
story) go wildly out of control.
Completely humiliated, the Author can only explain what should
be happening, but it becomes obvious that he and Ambrose are
freaks: Siamese twins who cannot
live with or without each other
—the narcissic fore, the uncertain
aft. When Ambrose finally wanders off in the Funhouse’s plywood maze
in itself an amazingly complex metaphor
the
Author can only report lost Ambrose’s alienated resolution.
—

—

There is a split. Narcissic Ambrose’s possible cure is the thirdperson singular, but to no avail,
since “his self objectified’s the
more enthralling.” The Author in
“Title” flounders in a frustrating
self-consciousness. His language
breaks down with the knowledge
that he himself is fiction and can
only find solace in the self-victory
implied in self-defeat.

Mock epic of the soul

But paradoxically, there is a
out of Proteus’ final disguise: "The absurd, unending possibility of love.” In the final
story, at least some things are
resolved. Spoken becomes speaker speaker, self. “Anonymiad”
is the ninth in a series of amphorae packed with an exiled
minstrel’s writing and set to sea
from his lonely island. The minstrel succeeds in freeing himself
from the burden of self-consciousness. In first person anonymous
he asks of his writing, “Will anyone have learnt its name? Will
everyone?” but realizes that a
“nameless minstrel wrote it” and
that is all that matters.

The SpECT^u"

�UB and Delaware to clash tomorrow
by M. A. Antonucci
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Saturday at 1:30 p.m. the State
University of Buffalo varsity football team will open a three game

stand in Rotary Field
against the Delaware Blue Hens.
Last week the Blue Hens overcame the University of Massachusa previous victim of the
etts
Bulls—by a score of 28-23. Two
weeks ago the University of Villanova took Delaware for its initial and only loss of the early
season by shutting the Blue Hens
out 16-0. Delaware had opened its
season by whipping Hofstra University 35-0 the first week of the
home

—

season.

Delaware’s record is now at 2-1
while the Bulls rest at 2-2 with
the Blue and White’s loss to
Boston College last weekend.
Delaware’s offensive line could
be one of their weak spots. Offensive guard Harry Vollendorf is
the only senior on the offensive
line. As a matter of fact, he is
the only senior in the entire offensive line-up.
Delaware head coach Harold
“Tubby” Raymond relies greatly
on Vollendorfs blocking and leadership in order to stabilize his
young offensive line. Vollendorf
is known for taking his man out
of the play and then looking for
someone else to block. He runs
like a fullback in addition to
being an excellent blocker.
In the Blue Hens’ opening victory over Hofstra, Delaware gained 410 yards rushing. Vollendorf
was a key man in this victory
leading the way on end sweeps
and clearing out large holes on
smashes up the middle.

DiMuzio calls signals
Delaware’s winged-T offense is
built around junior quarterback
Tom DiMuzio. DiMuzio has been
alternately spectacular and erratic in previous performances after
playing fullback last season. A
good runner, he has been unable
to find receivers with any regularity so far this year.
In his first two games, DiMuzio
completed only 39% of his passes
on 16 completions in 41 attempts
for 244 yards and two touchdowns. He likes to throw to his
backs as well as his, split end
Ron Withelder and tight ends
Mark Lipson and Pat Walker.
Withelder was the Blue Hens’
leading receiver last year as a

For both teams, hanging on to
the ball will be of primary concern, for both would like to eliminate fumbles and interceptions,
costly in the past. If Mason keeps
the offense moving and Luzny
and his defensive unit thwart
the Delaware offensive attack, the
Blue Hens will go down fighting
while the Bulls will get back on
the winning track.

sophomore. He is small at five
feet nine inches, 170 pounds but
he has good moves and excellent

hands.
The fullback slot is capably
handled by hard-running sophomore George Lacsny who suffered a knee injury in the Blue
Hens’ opening game.
In that
game, Lacsny gained 127 yards
in 14 carries to earn the Sophomore-of-the-Week honors in the
East.

Hen defenses strong
The Delaware defense, particularly the defensive backfield, has
been strong so far this season.
In the first two games, the Hen
secondary had come up with four
interceptions and had allowed
only one touchdown aerial.
Much of the credit for strengthening Delaware’s leaky pass defense go to sophomore cornerbacks Ron Klein and Sonny Merkey. Against Villanova, Klein

came

up with his second interception of the season which prevented a Wildcat touchdown.

Merkel, a former quarterback, is
one of the fastest men on the
team.
The Blue Hens’ strength lies
in their linebacking corps. Middle
linebacker John Favero could be
a top candidate for Little AllAmerican honors as a junior this
year. Right linebacker Bob Novotny is the team captain. Novotny was a regular offensive
guard last season, but was switched to linebacker as a part of an
overall effort to bolster the defense. He is a hustling, aggressive
leader and linebacker.
The competition for the defensive end positions is still quite
alive. There seems to be a fourway battle between two lettermen
and two sophomores. Jim Scelba,
a starter the last two years, and
Bruce Hanley, a former fullback,
are presently slated as starters.
However, these players could be
replaced any time by Ted Gregory and Eric Holle. Gregory was
brilliant last year on the undefeated freshman team. He’ lacks
experience, but he has a great
deal of ability and willingness to
work.

30 people were killed
to insure that the games will bring to Mexico
the accolades from the world sports community for a job well done.
There will be 7226 athletes from 119 nations competing in 19
events ranging from track and field and swimming to more obscure
sports such as Greco-Roman wrestling and clay pigeon shooting.
As usual, attention will be focused on the unofficial, yet very
serious, competition between the Soviet Union and the United States
based on who corrals the most gold medals and total medals during
the two-week competition.
This year’s United States team is regarded as one of the strongest
ever assembled. It is expected to dominate the competition in track
and field and in swimming, the two sports considered the heart of
the Olympics and to offset the Russian’s strength in such sports as
fencing, gymnastics, wrestling, weight lighting and cycling.
In men’s track and field competition, the United States is expected to take 13 gold medals in 24 events. Americans are favored
to win all the short races and have respectable entries in all the
others.
Probable winners include Charlie Greene or Jim Hines in the
100-meter dash, Tommie Smith in the 200, and Lee Evans in the 400.
The relays, barring a mishap in baton passing, should be sure gold
for the U.S. Tom Farrell has a chance in the 800. Jim Ryun, the
world’s top runner, is favored to take the 1500, but don’t be surprised
if he falls victim to Mexico City’s high altitude.
In the field events, A1 Oerter will attempt to win his third straight
gold medal in the discus. Other favorites include Bob Seagren in the
pole vault, Bob Beamon in the long jump and Randy Matson in the
shot-put. During the high jump competition, watch out for Dick Fos■M

B events at Tokyo should continue at Mexico City. There are very
few contests for either men or women that the United States doesn’t
have at least one or two favorites to win a gold medal. Keep your eye
� on Mark Spitz and Debbie Mayer to see which one ends up with more
gold. It is predicted that the U.S. will harvest 67 of a possible 99
medals offered in swimming competition.
A lot of talk has been circulating that the U.S. dominance in
basketball will end. This year’s team, minus Lew Alcindor, Elvin
and others, is one of the weakest ever. But they said that about
the 1964 team also. Coach Henry Iba plays a very dull ball-control
game, but once the players get accustomed to his methods, Iba’s teams
rarely beat themselves. So in a mild upset, I'll pick the U.S, to take
it all in basketball.

Sculpture Park
to host arts fest

An afternoon of the performing arts highlighted by monumental-sized sculptures and a
natural country-side setting will
be held Sunday, Griffis Sculpture
Park, a unique display of modern
art in the hills of Ashford Hollow, will host the presentation.
“Octoberfest” will consist of a
program of music recitals, dance
presentations, folk singing and
dramatic performances.
Featured will be Don Balluc's

play, “Grenade on Avenue B,”
directed by Guy Griffis. It is a
one-act play about Nathan Bronstein, an artist who refuses to
wash or shave until he sells his
work. He eventually becomes a

commercial and artistic success
but forfeits the ardor and charm
of his fiance, Susann Stockpole.
Overshadowing their dilemma
is an irrate landlady insistent on
receiving her back-rent. Nathan
will be played by Patrick Whitfield and Rosalind Cramer will

portray Susann. Elizabeth Axeb
rod has the role of the landlady.

Other dramatic presentations
will be “Improvisations” by the
Buffalo Theater Workshop with
Joye Peskin and Dottie Drummer
and a scene from “The Glass
Menagerie” performed by the
Springville Theater Workshop.

The Rothie dance group will
present three pieces: Techniques,
Facades and The Jazz Suite. Performances will also be given by
the Empire State Ballet Company
directed by Barbara Sriegel.
Musical programs will include
songs and ballads by Don Hackett
and Sherry Van and a band concert.

SAM: A winning tradition
by Vin Pavis and Joy Buchnowski
Spectrum Stall Reporters

Editor's Note: The following is
the first of a series of weekly articles presenting one of the campus Greek organizations, showing
their participation in the Greek
system and University life. Next
week—Sigma Phi Epsilon.

The Nu Chapter of Signrn Alpha
Mu, a national social fraternity,
has been in existence at this
University since 1917. The pres
ent brotherhood consists of 50
men plus pledges.

The Sammies will continue
their winning tradition in sports
with particularly strong teams in
golf and tennis. Sports Chairman
Alex Rihgelheim has entered a
team in nearly all intramural
events and the competition will

ceeds going to the United Heart
Fund. Since the time of its incep

brothers anticipate a substantial
addition to that figure as a result
of this year's drive.
Although Sigma Alpha Mu is a
national fraternity and therefore
not officially affiliated with the
University, the brothers nonetheless lake an active part in campus activity. There are Sammies
on the University Concert and
Convocation Committees, Student
Judiciary, and Norton Union Activities Board, as well as numerous other groups.

Lambert for Coordinator
Freshman voters Monday will choose their New Student
Affairs Coordinator for the Student Association.

According to the SA Constitution, the New Student Coordinators’ jobs are to “establish and enact programs designed to integrate the new student into university life.”

doubt to suggest the need for creativity. It is an important

“integration” of the new student into University life must be
a continual year-round operation. Whether or not the polity
system works, and ultimately, whether or not the University
“works,” depends on the significance of student input. The
New Student Affairs Coordinators have the opportunity to
encourage student activity in important areas of University
educational and political reform.
—

Of the several candidates for the position, all of whom
are at least minimally qualified, we endorse Percy Lambert.

Mr. Lambert, a graduate of Buffalo’s Burgard High, was
president of the NAACP Youth Council there and was active
in BUILD, US NOW, and the Community Action Organization. He is a member of the University’s Select Committee on
Equal Opportunity and is active in the Black Student Association. In recognition for his keen awareness of student
problems, he has been nominated to a position on the Student Affairs Committee of the Faculty Senate.

Ebert asks for ‘unwritten pledge of honor’
To the editor:
Since I cannot reach all students personally, I
wish to share a few thoughts with you concerning
violence. Having seen inhuman violence in many
parts of the world, I believe that inhumanity can
raise its ugly head in all societies, regardless of
color, religion or political structure.
We live in a time of severe social unrest and
change. The partial reason for the outburst of social
changes probably stems from the fact that for far
too long reasonable changes have been obstructed
by a lack of vision, selfishness, and indifference.
Recently we have witnessed incidents where
changes were accompanied by atrocious human behavior, I consider some of the acts of a small, ultraradical student group at Columbia University just
as degrading as the brute force of steel-helmted
police ramming rifle butts into the stomachs of
young students. We must prevent acts of stormtrooper-like violence on our campus, because such
action, regardless by whom performed, simply does

not belong in an academic environment where brain
should outweigh the fist.
May I, therefore, in all sincerity appeal to you,
the students of this University, to develop an environment which guarantees • full freedom to all,
but at the same time guarantees each individual
safety and freedom of violence
safety and freedom from personal harm and vilification? I firmly believe that the problem of violence
must and can be solved by the students themselves.
In this respect I have more confidence in the students than in the agents traditionally responsible
for dealing with this problem.
I am convinced that an unwritten pledge of
honor, not to raise one’s fist against one’s fellow
man, will take all of us a large step closer to a
world where man can talk, work, and live freely
without fear of violence, personal abuse, and
prejudice.

Organization formed to aid draft-dodgers
To the editor:
Not long ago I graduated from college. After a
year of graduate work at the State University of
Buffalo I was confronted with a choice not unfamiliar to most young men in their early twenties. My
decision was not to join the war effort in any manner and not to allow myself to be imprisoned for
that choice.
Instead I have transferred to a Canadian university and am pursuing my life’s goals
uninterrupted and quite happy. I have recently become
active in a newly formed organization composed of
British, Canadian and (primarily) Americans who
are interested in aiding any and all American men,
students and non-students, who have made up their

University ‘loves’ Nixon?

Our silence is racism

To the editor:
In Memorial Auditorium Monday, one would
think it was New Year’s Eve, and the crowds were
heralding in a New Year, Balloons and other such
festive decorations were abundant.

One such decoration was not very festive to the
writers. It was shocking. In clear view circumscribing the top of the walls was a long continuous mural painted in blue stating: “University of Buffalo
Loves Nixon,” etc. ad. nauseum.

While we agree there are some people associated
with the University who support Nixon, this mural
was stated in rather strong terms, for it is foolish
to assume that the University as a whole “loves”
Nixon.

Mandate—for what?
The mandatory intercollegiate athletic fee received an
overwhelming endorsement from a record turnout of student
voters this week. Interestingly enough, the vote is a “victory”
only In the sense that it shows there is still considerable sentiment on campus to have an active rah-rah big-time intercollegiate athletics program. It appears now that the athletic
department would have gotten the money anyway, and statements by University officials that the very existence of a
football team was in doubt seems to have been merely
elaborate empty rhetoric.
The athletic department, despite preliminary indications to the contrary, is reported to have requested from
the state more than $100,000 to balance their budget. The
$5.50 rate set by the sub board for next semester is based
on this request minus the $45,000 collected in voluntary fees
this semester.
The most important issue to be discussed is the relevance of the entire intercollegiate program in general and
elements of it in particular, and these must still be carefully
studied by the faculty-student committee mandated by this
week’s vote.
run sub board only has financial control over the money it
collects, which only makes up about one-third of the entire
intercollegiate athletics budget.
The role of the faculty-student committee on athletics
should be more than an advisory one. It should be established
as a permanent entity, overseeing the entire intercollegiate
athletics program of the University.

There is a club in Buffalo which is very
prejudiced. This club has ben an inner circle, a
society within itself. There was once a very prominent black doctor who tried to get membership in
the club and was refused admittance. Now what
do you think about that? To me it sounds like a
prejudiced act—and believe me, I see many many
prejudiced acts every day, each day since my first
day on this ball of mud called Earth.
The name of the club is not YMCA, it’s the
Buffalo Athletic Club. They are also prejudiced
towards Jews.
And guess what? They are having a big bash
at that racist club, and guess who is going to support the use and rental of the club’s facilities: The
University’s alumni association. Remember what
I said about money and support in the first paragraph and, well, see for yourself.

Asks ‘Mod Squad’ ban
To the editor:
The new TV show “Mod Squad” was genuine
infamy on the level of Adolph Eichmann, ignorant
treachery on a par with Benedict Arnold, combined
with cold, efficient techniques of modern-day brainwashing.
I paint this picture because this must be revealed for reasons of public health, education and
welfare.

This show is a tragedy, for it portrays plastic
hippies selling out their brothers and justifying
their actions with the statement: “Cops come in all
sizes.” They then go on to show that since “good”
is on their side the can easily forget their own
wickedness.

What is this affair being given in a racist club?
Well, 1 look at it in many controversial ways: maybe the alumni didn’t know that the Buffalo Athletic
Club was prejudiced; or maybe they didn’t realize
that every Black man and Jew knows it was prejudiced; or maybe they were trying to save money
on the rental of a hall: or maybe they are not
truly sincere in being so “liberal.” If there is such
an association in this University, then we are not
as liberal an institution as we thought we were.
Let's try and be fair about this thing: Are there
any other institutions who say they are liberal who
support this racist club? Canisius College doesn’t.
The B’nai B’riih doesn’t.
Why? Why? Why? I still don’t understand
how our gracious alumni can support a racist club.

Maybe they want to.
If this is so, then I’m deeply hurt and severely
shocked at our gracious alumni. When I become
an alumnus, I’m sure this won’t happen, because I
know that most of the young students are not racist
—maybe only 20%. I think we should really scope

The “Mod Squad’ is basically like “Mission Impossible” and “Wild Wild West” programs that
glorify lethal competition resolved only by sadistic
brutality.
For reasons of public health, education and gen
eral welfare I call a ban on these shows.

I know how the black brothers feel about this
and I'm talking for them when I say I know they

involved in any way with a racist club.
One of the worst things in the world is for us
to lie to ourselves, to say we are one thing and turn

out to be another.
I hope that no one shows up at that racist club,
not only at next week’s wing-ding, but also at future
wing-dings.
Well, I’m mad about it and I know a lot of
brothers and others are mad, and that is the absolute truth.

I'd rather invite the alumni to have their wingding at my house—free of charge—that is, if my

Racism is most insidious as a silent phenomenon: Its
rules are unspoken; it is perpetuated by silence.
The Buffalo Athletic Club has a racist membership policy. That shouldn’t’ be news to anyone. Like similar clubs
across the country, it is a powerful expression of institutionalized racism.
America, people say, is a free country; which means that
in “private” concerns, one has the freedom to be prejudiced.
“Legally” speaking, very little can be done to break the
racial and religious barriers of strictly private clubs. College
fraternities, for example, were ordered to “open” their
membership because they were part of “public” universities.
Concomitant with this freedom to be prejudiced, however, is the freedom and the responsibility of supposedly
liberal whites to refuse to support racist groups and to influence others to do likewise.
The University alumni association is trying to tell us
they did not know of the BAG membership policies. They are
saying it is too late to change the place of the dance. So why
not cancel it altogether?
If the dance is allowed to be held, it will give further
silent public assent —in the name of this University
to
bigotry. Such action can not be tolerated by the University
community.
President Meyerson’s brief statement saying he \yill not
attend the alumni party at the BAG may have an effect on
the attendance, but certainly not on the incipient racism of
the alumni group.
As president of the University, he must play little political games with the alumni, in the hopes of encouraging
financial as well as verbal support for the changing programs
of the University. He has said, in effect, that the issue of a
University group’s endorsement of racism is apparently not
worth the hassle.
We think it is.
Mr. Meyerson may be smoothing relations with the
alumni, but he is only perpetuating the racism of the University.
The alumni must not be allowed to hold the dance, unless of course they want to sever all ties with the University.
H the alumni group does rioT take action to postpone or
change the place of the event, we urge the Faculty Senate
to hold an emergency meeting, and, following the lead of the
Student Association, demand that the alumni dinner-dance
not be held at the BAG, encourage all members of the University community not to attend the event, and strongly and
publicly condemn the discriminatory practices of the club.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Janis Joplin (left) of Big Brother &amp; the Holding Company belts out a two-fisted gut ache.
Guitarist Bobby Tower (right) leads the Procol Harum sound Friday night (see review
page 10).

Banshee of blue-eyed soul
by Corydon Ireland
Soectrum Staff Reoortnr
Imagine that you are a woman who has
just gotten out of bed. You are stale and
half-smiley in the morning and you shuffle

off to the bathroom and suddenly find
yourself in the middle of a stage, fronted
by raspy cheers and surrounded from behind by a tableau of .twangy guitars, long
hairs and crazy lights. You really just
want to gargle and maybe have breakfast,
but all of them want you to sing. You are
pleased that all of this has happened,
somehow, but you are faintly uncomfortable. You want to make the best of it. Like
any woman who has just gotten up, you
have no age; you are a little girl and a
sexy woman and a tired old gnarl at the
same time. You remember that your name
is Janis Joplin and that it means a certain
something. Suddenly it dawns on you that
you are famous.
By the looks of her, Janis must have
thought some of these things and felt like
(his when she stepped
from the shadows
into the light on stage. She stepped into
the light from the shadows with a kind of
microphone in a parody of what has been
her rise to fame.
Her face and body are the kind that are
plain enough in repose to be anything
they want to be when they are excited.
Her face is small and round like a melon
and hidden in the traffic of her long,
hrown hair, which is quick to snarl and

frizz in the heat of her act. Her mouth

is round again, built for yelling and wailing and scissored with a short, squared set
of teeth.

Lust and excitement

She was dressed in black that night to
silhouette her gravely-voiced charms

against the gaud and twang of Big Bro-

ther. The top of her outfit was of black
silk. It swept across the white of her
chest, begging to hang loose at the right
shoulder like a pajama top that wants to
be seen through. Hipped with ropes of
gold braid, her pants washed to the edge
of her feet like a dark waterfall and lingered in figgety pools around her gold
sandals.
With the right music behind her she
could be a swaggering Jeremia, a simmering gypsy, or an innocent giggling little
girl. With the music she came alive, lowstepping the beat or dancing about at the
curious right angle of her ecstacy, when
she would crick her streaming head of
hair across her left shoulder. To lose herself. When she was not trick-bodied into
this right-angle womb of reverie Janis
was nervous, crushing her hands and
wrists together to build the tension. Almost as an after-thought, she would grab
out at the mike, clutch it like a lover, and
sing at a fever pitch.
The sound of Janis Joplin is as primiis no word that could sum it up. Her style
is as deep and as basic as emotion itself;
as old and as wanton as dance and music
and soul.

Defies the scales

Her first and most powerful instrument
is her voice, which defies the scales as it
rips up and down them, graveling at their
deep depths and screeching at their tippytops. The words that she sings really need
not have any meaning, since it is the juggling, and not the oranges, that really
counts.

How can I put an hour of climax and
ectasy into words, except to say that it

happened? Janis Joplin has happened.
Like Gertrude Stein put to music, Janis
night trains the ends of many phrases, repeating them, until they are a litany of
pain and emotion and not just a set of
words. Breathing heavily at the soft edges
of her songs, she becomes a soulful negress; from the warm darkness of soul,

she lifts her voice into banter and becomes
a chattering nag, needling her man; searing higher, her voice trembles past the
hysterical Wayne Newton zone and fires
to the Tiny Tim heights of new intensity.

Janis is soul
When I talk about the songs I have to
bring the other people in. Big Brother
and the Holding Company, without Janis
Joplin, is a group without a soul. She is
always the last to come on stage since she

is the first person the audience wants to
see. It would be an understatement to say
that Janis Joplin is the catalyst in the
whole emotional chemistry of the performance; without her, Big Brother is just another rock group. By this I do not mean
ionally brilliant on the strings and on the
bass as well, but his voice is pale and nar-

row after Janis’.

The voice and songs of Janis Joplin
somehow need a man in the background,
since the tunes are really a pantomine of
love and its drawbacks. That man is Sam
Andrews. His voice is best set in this
chorus work.
Alive at the start anyway. Janis Joplin
and her Big Brothers really came alive
late in Part One of the two part program
with “Combination of the Two." I really
prefer to call it the goldfish song, since

the whole group make Cheerio-mouthed
all throughout the piece. The
only standing ovation of the night was for
this piece. Half the audience was standing
anyway at the end of the song, dancing
swing-ass over their cardtable chairs and
in the aisles.

Comic strip number
Sam Andrews did the lead in the next
number, a new one called “Mr. Natural,”
patterned after a comic strip of the same
name, done by R. Crumb, who did the cover for the Holding Company’s new Ip
“Cheap Thrills.” Janis popped in there
with a “woo-woo” now and then to keep
things going.
Janis opened Part Two with her smashing “Piece of my Heart.” It was a phenomenally successful gesture to the audience,
who were eager to feel the drive of the
late Part One show. A quick succession of

songs of the same kind ended with the
moving “Summertime,” a song which Janis transformed from a lilting spiritual into
a credibly rock spiritual. Perhaps this is
the one stunningly innovative song the
pens is that a traditional choral group or
orchestra will borrow a rock song and
make it traditionally toneless. “Summertime” is a pleasant case of the reverse,
where a rock group has transformed a
traditional song, making it credible, modern and moving.
Officially, “(Love is like a) Ball and
Chain” was to be the last song. As it was
there were two encores, both clipped, and
the first dedicated to George Wallace, who
proceeded the Holding Company by one
day and who moved his audiences with his
own special brand of political soul.

In a nationwide radio address Sunday, the GOP presidential nominee said the “energies and spirit of the American people” had
been stifled by federal programs that "dehumanize and perpetuate a
cycle of dependency.”
Nixon said the great failure of the Democratic administration was
its inability to enlist voluntary organizations to help solve the nation’s
economic and social problems.
“Unless the personal element is restored, we cannot succeed,”
he said. “But if our human resources are enlisted on the scale required, we can hardly fail.”

WASHINGTON
Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey, beginning the third and possibly most crucial of his presidential campaign
tours, accused Republican candidate Richard M. Nixon today of political double-talk—saying one thing in the North and another in the
South.
Humphrey, in remarks prepared for delivery in Erie, Pa., said
“in this campaign the Democrats are running behind. But we are moving up fast." He said voters could not “trust” either Nixon or third
party candidate George C: Wallace.

say.

The report that McCarthy had not changed his post-Demoeratic
National Convention position on supporting the vice president came
at a meeting of the New Democratic Coalition, a group of dissident
Democrats formed after the convention.

the gadfly
by Mark Schneider

Some months ago, George F, Kennan,
the liberal intellectual author of the cold
war containment policy, published an article in the New York Times magazine
section which criticized the New Left, and
particularly SDS, for its excessive activism. His vision of the university was the
traditional ivory tower one in which students, too young to know anything, absorbed knowledge passively from learned
professors in a detached atmosphere. Society had been nice enough to set up
these isolated institutions of learning—why were students not gratefully steeping
themselves in the wisdom of their elders
while the outside world floated by?
Kennan’s fundamental lie—he is too
aware to have misconceptions of this magnitude—is that the American university
is “detached” or “objective.” As even the
slick press is declaring, American schools
are up to their asses in complicity with
the military machine to the tune of $462,707,000. That’s how much research our
detached universities do for the government.

world news

Czechs may resign
Party First Secretary AlexPRAGUE
ander Dubcek and three other top Czechoslovak leaders threatened to resign rather
than submit to the tough demands made
by the Kremlin in last week’s talks in
Moscow, informed Czechoslovak sources
said.
The sources close to the senior leadership said a full meeting of the 190-member Central Committee of the Communist party would be summoned to hear the
report of the delegation which went to
Moscow for the negotiations with Soviet
leaders.
It will be at the plenary meeting that
Dubcek, President Ludvik Svoboda, Premier Oldrich Cernik and President Josef
Smrkovsky of the National Assembly will
decide whether or not to resign, the
sources said.
The four leaders considered resignation as “the only honorable thing they can
do” in the face of Soviet demands on the
stationing of Warsaw Pact troops here,
purging top political and intellectual
ranks and introducing “advisers” in key
Czechoslovak government and party offices, according to the informants.

Brezhnev, Premier Alexei Kosygin and
President Nikolai Podgorny, the sources
said.
The third member of the negotiating
team from Prague, Slovak party leader
Gustav Husak, opposed the Soviet demands
also but would not go along with any resignation plan, they added.
The specific point over which the leaders balked in Moscow, they said, was the
signing of a treaty calling for the stationing of foreign Communist troops in Czechoslovakia indefinitely. The communique
issued after the talks said that “the sides
agreed that the government would consider and sign a treaty on the temporary
s aliening of allied troops in Czechoslovakia.”
The Czechoslovak Defense Minister, Gen.
Martin Dzur, said he was “convinced” that
most of the Soviet occupation troops would
be out of the country by Oct. 28.
Dzur made the prediction in an interview on Prague and Bratislava radio after the defiant Czechoslovak press and
dozens of workers’ oragnizations warned
they would consider any Soviet efforts to
purge the present Czechoslovak leadership

Dubcek and Cernik voiced the resignation threat during the talks in Moscow
with Soviet Communist party chief Leonid

Dzur said in an interview, however,
that any Soviet troop withdrawal would
“not be a one-sided affair.”

Fattest cat of all is MIT which received
$92,423,000 worth of defense contracts in
1967—more than General Motors. Roughly half this sum is “classified.” Thus the
academic community and objective science
benefit nothing at all from this research—not that humanity would benefit much
from MIT’s work on nuclear armed submarines even if it were unclassified.
Other schools such as Illinois Institute
of Technology, which receives $14,700,000
from the Defense Department, study such
beneficent problems as: How can we
spread disease in the air? Can bubonic
plague be introduced successfully into a
given community?
The State University of Buffalo is a
midget compared to these giants, receiving only about $450,000 in defense
contracts annually. However, the University has opened its arms to the Air Force,
offering its facilities to train officers in
a ROTC program. Similarly, the University welcomes any corporation to its doors
in a so-called “open-campus” policy.

The open campus policy is a myth. If
the campus were open, there would be a
three-credit course in guerrilla warfare
taught by a Cuban or Vietnamese in
Clark Gym, right next to the ROTC office.
The Russians and Chinese would recruit
espionage agents on the same day the CIA
comes here, and this University would do
$450,000 worth of research for defense of
Castro, as well as for dictators like Franco
or Salazar, our allies.
What I am suggesting is that there are
great moral problems involved in determining the proper relationship of the
University to the economic and governmental institutions of society. By what
standard does-a university admit the CIA
to its grounds and sanction its right to
exist? This secret terrorist organization
has engineered the overthrow of the Arbenz regime in Guatemala, a regime which
committed the intolerable, communist sin
of attempting land reform at the expense
of the United Fruit Company. The CIA is
so brutal, so inhuman as' to have allowed
only the most militant pro-Batistianos to
conduct the Bay of Pigs invasion. Yes, the
blood of freedom fighters is on the hands
of CIA agrents from Bolivia to Indonesia,
and the “open-campus" proponents are offering these people a helping hand.
Two-thirds of the world’s people, who
live under the “protection” of American
troops in the Third World will argue that
a university in fact should be subversive
of these capitalist organizations. They
know from experience—from working for
$.20 a day, all day, with no doctors within
100 miles, with their children working
beside them instead of being in school—the moral worth of the United Fruit Company, the Haitian-American Sugar Co., or
the Green Berets who defend these exploiters. The Vietnamese peasant, watching Boeing Aircraft dropping Dow napalm
on his house, would argue that our University should close its doors to his enemies and open them to him. At the very
least, I think even liberals would agree
to the first.

Nixon urges individual action
Richard M. Nixon said
NEW YORK
that the chief revolt in America is against
“an increasingly impersonal” federal bureaucracy that saps individual initiative.
He said the great failure of the current
Democratic administration is its inability
to enlist voluntary organizations to help
solve the nation’s economic and social problems.
In a nationwide radio address, the GOP
presidential nominee said federal programs “aimed at establishing domestic
tranquility and securing the general welfare have had almost the opposite—less
tranquility and more violence, more public welfare and less personal well-being.”
—

The Democrats, he charged, have failed
to bring the “human element” into government.

“Unless this personal element is restored, we cannot succeed,” he said. “But
if our human resources are enlisted on the
scale required, we can hardly fall.”

A major thrust of his campaign is that
people can do more for themselves and
that he will organize and encourage private enterprise and voluntary groups to
take a major role in creating betler housing, producing better jobs and generally
eliminating the social ills that breed dis-

content.

Rusk: Bombing will continue
Secretary of State Dean
NEW YORK
Rusk has asserted that the Administration’s top officials were united in continuing the bombing of North Vietnam and

However, Rusk stressed that President

such a step would lead toward peace.
He insisted that a halt in the bombing

at War Memorial Auditorium. Addressing a crowd of
approximately 7000 people, he

order in America. Among the
crowd there was a wide divergance of political opinion, evidenced by signs reading: “Go
Home Beast” and “Wallace for
President,”

Some i'ti the agitated throng explained their presence: “This is
incredibly American! Country mu,sim, pretty girls, American flags
and crazy hats.” Or "It’s the social
event of the year." One middle
aged man said: “You scum, you
college students!”
Wallace himself was greeted

with cheers and chants of “2-4-6-8,
we don’t want a facist state,”
from one-thousand hostile demonstrators, As he began to speak,
the majority of his antagonists
left the auditorium singing, “We
Shall Overcome.”
Wallace spoke nearly half an
hour and touched upon Vietnam,
anarchy, Mr. Nixon and the press.

He was interrupted several times
by both cheering and booing.
Mr. Wallace said: “When I become your President and a group

cause when I become president,
that’s the end of anarchy.”
As the rally ended, pro-Wallace
and anti-Wallace forces shouted
threats and lined-up opposite each

The crowd began moving down

similar group of protestors who
had left earlier. This group was

head of the Poor People’s Campaign in Buffalo. Her march was

Military solution

Concerning Vietnam, Wallace
commented: “LeMay knows we

must be superior militarily to
negotiate successfully. If the Paris
talks fail, then we will ask the
military to bring about a solution
to the war.”
In answer to his critics in what
he terms the “liberal press,” he

added; “The New York Times
said Castro was the Robin Hood
of the Carribean, but the Alabama taxi drivers knew he was a
bad man, so don’t worry what the
Times says about you or me.”
Wallace closed by warning the
few protestors remaining: “You’d

the marchers moved up to help

Mr. Smith was not seriously injured.

Asked about the success of the

a State University of Buffalo SDS

The police exercised a great
amount of self-restraint and this
prevented any full outbreaks of
violence at the rally. Although
heated comments were thrown
from the stage at the demonstrators, no confrontation was sought.
As Wallace spoke, they filed out

George Wallace is more than
a politician. A Wallace rally is
more than a group of boisterous
partisans having a good time.
Wallace politics might be called
a sort of “new politics.” It is a
politics of shouting, fighting, tension, irrationality.
It is the politics of pure emo-

tion.
The Wallace speech is secondary to the whole damn event.
It is the same everywhere he
goes, anytime he speaks.
Attacks on the “brief case totin’ bureaucrats,” the “free speech
boys,”
and godalmightydamn,
“the anarchists.”
Promises to “turn absolute control of the public school system
back to the people,” to provide
for the “maintenance and restoration of law and order.”
However, the real brand of
Wallace politics is an Indian woman interrupting Wallace’s verbal
artillery at a fund-raising dinner.
She says she is a Mohawk from
Bradford, Ont. now living in the
Buffalo area.

Princess Wildrose
She identifies herself first as
Princess Wildrose, then as Lillian
Hill.
She tells the former Alabama
governor that North American
Indians merely “want to be left
alone with our dignity and pride.”
She later explains to newsmen
that the Republicans and Democrats have neglected the Indians,
and perhaps George Wallace
could do something for them.

The real Wallace politics is a
game of explosive contrasts. The
‘‘peapickers, rednecks and crackers” vs. the “free speech boys.”
The latter group shouts down
Wallace as he begins to speak.
“They want free speech for
themselves but not for anybody
else,” comes the expected retort
from the stage.
The Wallace gallery explodes
in cheers, and trades curses and
sneers with the protestors.
The friction builds until the
“audience” becomes something
just short of a mob.

Science. He said that it will basically “deal with political questions, but with both a historical
and a current bent. I’m interested
in the current kinds of political
ferment that are going on in the
country and getting students and

people who are practitioners in
these things together."

The plans for the college are
not rigidly conceived at the pre-

sent time. Mr. Planck remarked:
“There are a lot of possibilities.
We’re just beginning to raise for
ourselves the different alternative models of what these Colleges
could do."
He indicated that the general
guidelines which have been established must be filled in and
this will depend on the students
and faculty members who begin
to associate themselves with the
College. He continued, “The College will have a general orientation and students can go to the
one that sounds good to them.
And there will be many different
kinds to choose from.” There will
be a linking of unrelated departments in the Colleges according
to general interest.
Although the concept of a College-type arrangement is not a
new one, that of the Amherst
campus will be unique because it
will be an educational center as
well as a dormitory.

Mr. Planck emphasized that
there will be a high degree of
student participation in the development of the Colleges. He
said that students will help formulate policies and create ideas
as the College system grows.

�Student rights statement fails
to receive SUNY acceptance
The Joint Statement on Rights
and Freedoms of Students has
failed to receive any advance
commitments from presidents of
the State University of New York
institutions.
According to Everard Pineo,
associate dean at the State University at Albany, the statement
drew general agreement in principle by the presidents, however
did not receive endorsement as
policy on a state-wide basis. Acceptance of the document was left
to the discretion of the individual
campuses.

A panel discussion was held at
the Saratoga Springs meeting to
give the presidents an opportunity to review the statement. Moderator was Dr. James E. Perdue,
president of the State University
College at Oswego. Members included Dr. Clifton Thorne, vice
president for Student Affairs at
the State University at Albany,
Dr. McWherter, chairman of the
University-wide Faculty Senate
Committee on Student Affairs.
Two students were also panel
members: Michael Starr, president of the Student Association at
the State University at Binghamton and Barbara O’Connor of

Monroe Community College, president of the Community College
Institutions Student Government
Association.

Mr. Pineo stated that the meeting, which included small group
discussions and an address by one
of the drafters of the Joint Statement, provided a good discussion
and an opportunity for extended
discussions regarding the principles of the document.

Controversial wording
Samuel Gould, chancellor of
the State University, indicated
that after further meetings with
the central staff some move will
be made, although nothing would
be adopted without hearing the
opinions of the students and faculty. Individual campuses wanting tn adopt the resolutions
would have the opportunity to do

would be placed on the presidents to accept the resolution.
He added that he was not sure
whether the document would be
pushed as a policy for the universities. If anything, he said,
the individual campuses would

The most controversy over the

statement, which was circulated

to university presidents for the

specific wording. However, Mr.

years to “hammer out the document” and the meeting was only
a point of departure for its acceptance. No pressure, he stated,

In addition, the petitioners indicated a need for a bill and

that he had consulted the Food

that “nearly every coin machine

If another campus organization

Alcohol Review Board meets
to determine general policies
“Where does the responsibility
for these affairs—organizational
parties serving alcoholic beverages—really lie?” This question
was one of many asked by Dr.
Anthony Lorenzetti, chairman of
the Alcohol Review Board, at
Wednesday’s meeting of the
board.
The immediate purpose of the
meeting was a request submitted
by Michael Sandgarten, acting director of the State University of

Buffalo band, that the band be

allowed to serve alcohol at a
party Oct. 19. This party, to be
held in the band building on Millersport Highway, would be in
conjunction with the visiting Villanova University Band.
Discussion considering the request centered on where the responsibility lies for the actions
of students and the dealing with
minors. The board recognized the
need for general principles to be
resolved which could be applied
in future cases, eliminating the
deliberation on every review before the members.
Dr. Lorenzetti is planning to
consult the Facilities and Planning Development
''partments
on the question of where responsibility in various buildings lies
when alcoholic beverages are
served there.
The board took action on the
formal request of the band. Permission was granted providing
that the party be catered by Food
Service and the advisor of the
Buffalo band and the officers of

the two bands be responsible “for
maintaining the appropriate decorum.”
It was reported that at present
no problems have arisen concerning the matter of alcoholic consumption in residence halls.
Since the board is relatively inexperienced in these situations,
each case must be carefully reviewed. In the future, general
principles will be adopted which
Dr. Lorenzetti hopes can be implemented to fit the various requests which the board expects
to be filed.
The board will be in effect
until December. At present it
serves two functions; to act upon requests for the serving or
sale of alcoholic beverages on
campus in locations other than
Norton Hall, the residence halls
and the Faculty Club and to review and be aware of the rules
for the serving and sale of alcoholic beverages established by
the responsible governing bodies
of the above groups.

is gathering momentum.
Despite a number of arrests,
unauthorized searches and the
ever-present threat of the draft,
students have come out more
strongly than ever in opposition
to the war and to the men who
are running it.
Last July, the editor of the
magazine of the Saigon Student
Union, 23-year old Nguyen
Truong Con, was picked up by
police without a warrant and sentenced the following day to five
years at hard labor.
He was accused of having “disseminated false peace and procommunist printed material harmful to the anti-communist struggle of the Vietnamese people and
armed forces.” There was no ap-

The Saigon Student Union, representing 25,000 or 85% of the
entire student population in the
country, wants reunification of
the two Vietnams in the near
future and an end to the present
coalition of politicians and generals backed up by the United
States, but talks about negotiations rather than U.S. withdrawal or NLF victory.

Only about 10% of all the students in the universities at Saigon, Hue, Can Tho, Da Lat and
Van Hanh are politically involved.
Most are from middle-class families and have been able to avoid
the draft.

One student, taking a realistic
look at the situation in Saigon,
admitted: “We can only demand
peace, again and again.”

PORTUGAL

The magazine, which has a circulation of 5000, had published
an editorial both anti-war and
anti-American, thus breaking a
long silence on these issues.
The Executive Committee of
the Saigon Student Union issued
a statement urging that the war
“cease by negotiation,” which it
called a “realistic peace solution.”

Money down the drain?

wasteland
by Linda Hanley
Feature

Editor

Four years have passed since the Board of Directors of
the Faculty Student Association purchased a 510-acre tract
of land out in Amherst. Four years is a long time, but the
Amherst land has not shown its age. In fact, it has shown
very little for itself in that time, aside from the recent appearance of a few scattered picnic tables and its annual
drainage of over $10,000 in taxes.
And the fate of the land
now is no more certain than
it was four years ago,
It was originally purchased
in the fall of 1964 for approximately $775,000. The FSA
had a surplus of funds after
balancing the budget that
year, and with an eye on rising property values, bought
the land to further its “benevolent” purposes. Though
the value of the land has
risen to over $1 million since
that time, the only benevolent purpose it has served so
far has been as an unofficial
refuge for Amherst wildlife.

Sub-board control
In January, 1966, after an
examination of the FSA books
by the New York State Department of Adult and Control and
amidst a rising tide of student
dissatisfaction with the way FSA
was handling their money, a subboard system was initiated to administer to the various aspects
of FSA business. Sub-board 1,
which deals with educational and
recreational development funds,
got the thankless task of finding
something to do with 510 acres
of land that few people knew
about and about which even less
cared.
The sub-board set up a Land
Use Committee which consisted
of members of the faculty and
administration plus representatives of both undergraduate and
graduate students. When they
made their report last year, subboard 1 was not enthusiastic and
asked them to study the matter
further.

Golf course proposal
The Land Use Committee’s recommendation called for 50% of
the land to be devoted to a golf
complex which would consist of

an 18-hole championship course,
a driving range, a practice putting
green, and a par three golf course
illuminated for night use. The
remaining 50% of the land would

be devoted to various recreational
facilities such as picnic areas,
sports fields, a park area and
others as the land develops.
The theory was that the reve-

nue from the golf course (it

would be open to the public at
commercial rates and have re-

duced

prices

for,

students'

and

faculty) would not only pay for
its creation and upkeep, but also
generate capital for the admission-free recreational areas.
Seemingly, nobody supported
the idea. Student interest had
always been a problem, and in
answer to a questionnaire published in The Spectrum last year
on the matter of what should be
done with the land, only 271

Tuesday, October

8, 1968

students responded, and of that
only 24% supported the Land
Use Committee’s proposal.

a staggering sum in taxes has
been paid in the past and is included in the proposed budget
again this year. Student Association President Richard Schwab
suggested that perhaps the reason for the tax is in expectation
of the land someday being converted into a profit-making golf
course. At the present, though,
far from being an asset, the
land is a costly drain on student
funds in return for little or no
benefit.

The Graduate Student Association pressured the sub-board to
hold off on a final decision and
then came out with their own proposal, calling the projected golf
(only)
course “reasonable
if one ignores the social and
moral responsibility that the University and the students have to
society. The question is one of
what can best be done with the
land taking into consideration the
interests of the students and the
contribution they can make to
the urban community.”
...

...

The GSA proposal outlined a
plan for using land along the
northern and western boundaries
for organized activities anil setting aside 50 acres of this perimeter area “for the possible
development of student housing
in the event that the state does
not fulfill housing needs in the
construction of the new campus.”
The rest of the land would “be
developed as an artificially wild
area to be blended with the organized activity areas.”

In addition, the present picnic
“with
the idea that . . . (it) . . . could
be used as a day camp for underprivileged children in the urban
community,” as well as place for
meetings and recreation.

fleeting.
Mr. Schwab voicd an opinion
on the condition of the land at
present: “I was not too impressed
when I want out there this summer. There were a few butterflies,
some geese, a lot of weeds and
trees. There was also a garden
which someone had planted
no one is sure who
but at
any rate, no one came back to

A growing budget

GSA proposal

But whatever the outcome of
this year’s budget request, it
cannot be ignored that last year’s
budget in the amount of $33,965.08 was passed and paid out,
predominantly from students fees.
It is interesting to note in comparison that Norton Hall with all
its many facilities receives only
$50,000 as a budget from FSA.
All this amounts to an awful
lot of student money being shelled out for precious little in
return. There are a few. picnic
tables and fireplaces there currently, but the days of picnics in
the Buffalo sunshine are rapidly

even more bewildering

than the tax item are the-other
expenses for which money is
being requested for
1968-69.
Salaries and wages run $17,257.90
(there are two men employed for
the maintenance of the land) and
$8,500 is asked for land maintenance (equipment, repairs, parts
and services). The total budget
request including taxes is
$35,965.08!
This budget will be discussed
at the next meeting of sub-board
1. It was on the agenda of the last
meeting, but no official of FSA
or employee involved with the
land showed up to explain the
requests.

Mr. Schwab questions not only
the payment of the taxes, but
the amounts requested for salaries and maintenance. “If grass
has to be mowed
and there
certainly could not be much more
to do with the land than that, considering its present development

control of the FSA.”
Along the same lines, the Board
of Trustees had said in May 1968
that "control over disbursement
of the proceeds of the student
activity fee shall te exercised by
the appropriate organization representing the studertt body.”

Student control of Uml
Currently, the sub-boards'oCUie
FSA set the fees and then chamier
the funds back to the student associations and organizations. The
membership corporation would
thus free the FSA land from subboard control and put its administration directly into the hands of
students. It would be a non-profit
organization, but it would be able
to own, invest and carry monies
over to the next year.
The corporation would have no
rigid form, but could be set up
in any way convenient to the
students. The most feasible plan
would be a board of directors
responsible to the Student Association itself, plus certain officers like a treasurer. All five
student associations would have
proportionate representation.
But the most significant aspect
of the land coming under control
of a membership corporation

would be the fact that it would
become tax-exempt. A saving of
more than $10,000 a year in taxes
would certainly help pay for its
development. One of the reasons
nothing has been done with the
land as yet is lack of capital.
Other ways of financing development include: mortgaging the
land, selling part of it, student
assessment, or using student re-

yers on forming a membership

directly from Albany. A letter
from Samuel B. Gould, chancellor
of the State University of New

related to their collection and expenditure should, therefore, be
completely within the control of
the duly constituted student government organization. Such funds
shall not be commingled with

Mr. Schwab feels that “students
in control of the land would also
probably move much more quickly to do something with it. The
land has been sitting around for
four years already. They could
develop it into what they want,
and also have the option to sell.”
At any rate, administration of
the land by a student controlled
membership corporation could
hardly be more ineffective than
the current situation where questions and decisions are bounced
back and forth from committee
to committee and even four years
proves too short a time for action.

The logical thing for a student
whose fees are paying for these
recreational facilities to ask himself is: “Are they worth $35,000
of my money a year?” Obviously,
there are many who think they
aren’t.

area would be expanded

Swap the land?
Even the administration was
lukewarm on the idea. President
Meyerson has since suggested a
possible swap of the present land
site with that occupied by the
Amherst Audobon Golf Course.
This latter tract of land is adjacent to that which will comprise
the new Amherst campus. A “University Town” could be erected
on the Audobon Golf Course land
which could serve the extra-academic needs of a University community (i.e. religious).
The group which has been least
articulate on the matter of what
should be done with the land,
the students, are now becoming
aware that something is amiss
somewhere even if they lack concrete plans of their own. The
students whose fees paid for the
better part of the land have since
graduated, never reaping of its
limited benefits. But, more importantly, it is student fees which

Eric and the Harum
by

Jim Brennan

Spectrum Stmtl Reporter

Eric is back. Eric’s returned
the troops of his
hometown.
Opening with “Close the Door
Lightly When You Go," the young
native of Amherst was in fine
folk form. His soft vibrato voice
with its light baritone qualities
cracked a hometown smile as he
did "Rollin’ Home.”
In doing this tune of his own
writing, he started with a few flat
notes but after a few minutes
singing was hitting with that
familiar smooth, melodic style.
Andersen wrote just about all
the material he performed. With
an excellent poetic vision and
feel for content, he approached
the theme of physical love and
the joyous fantasy of ideal emotional love in “Come To My Bedside” and "Violets of Dawn.”
His message is conveyed on two
levels. The value and sensitivity
of his words leave the mind with
beautiful imagery and thought.
While the harmonic impressions
of his guitar voice and harmonica
involve the physical senses.

Eric's moods
Eric’s feeling sad and his harmonica bawls, as felt in “Miss
Lonely are You Blue;” Eric’s lonely and his voice splashes tears on
“The Dock of the Bay;” and Eric’s
a happy hillbilly lover and his
guitar wailed “Hey Babe, Have
You Been Cheatin’.”
During his intra-song chatter,
he posed a rhetorical question to
the audience on who has more
bread
General Electric or the
Catholic Church? To which one
young lady replied: “Yea but

chines!”
A man of strong opinions, Mr.
Andersen is indignant at war’s inequitable loss in “For What Was
Gained” demanding for civil
rights in “Thirsty Boots,” and an
imaginative dreamer in “A Dream
to Rimbaud.”
With a beautiful bag of songs,
Eric is gone again. On the road
to a new concert, but before leaving, he echoed a mutual feeling
shared with the audience—it was
“Good To Be With You.”

Perhaps it is an injustice that
I did not begin this review with
Ars Nova, the group that lead off
the program. But if it is injustice at all, it is chronological injustice only. Musically, Ars Nova
is a superior group, but in terms
of emotional impact and popular
standing, the Holding Company,
and Janis Joplin in particular, deserved the first words.
Last summer Ars Nova was featured in Life magazine as being
one of the most innovative American rock groups. This was an
honor well deserved, if I am to
judge by Saturday's performance.
Ars Nova is a technically superb group. They are drums,

Procol Harum. First impressions:
“Whoopee another electric English rock group!”
But upon further sitting, then
tapping, then swaying, you began
to get into the Harum enhancement. It all started for me with
a goodie called “Wishing Well."
To describe the sound let’s say it
was baroque rock. B. J., the Harum’s drummer, set the pace with
a regimental march doing a phenomenal one handed drum roll
which his free hand scratched his
nose.
Robby Tower, lead guitarist
guru, executed some superb rifts
with his lightning slides up and
down the guitar neck in this number. His guitar work was one of
the main features of the Harum.
This was due to an abundance of
talent on Robby’s part and an
overbalance of his amplifier in
relation to the rest of the group.

Panels trace rock history
One could try to tell exactly
what went on at each of the pop
festival panel discussions and
lectures last week. I could tell
you who said what, when, where
and how; but I won’t. Those discussions were quite subjective,
and this' article will be in the
same vain.
The opening lecture was given
by Kurt Von Meir; “History of
Rock and Roll or as Shirley and
Lee Would Say, Let The Good
Times Roll.” Rock and roll grew
out of the 1940 jazz cat singing
rhythm and blues. You had a
black group called the Chords
doing a song called “Life Qould
Be a Dream” (cleaned up rhythm
and blues).
A white group from Toronto
called the Crew Cuts picked it up,
added the sugar-coating of white

mainstream nonsense love lyrics
for the first time added an abrupt
stop in the middle of the tune.
In 1954 you had the first rock
song to be number one on the
surveys and a pattern had been
established.

Presley, Beatles, Berry
So it went, from Bill Haley and
the Comets on down to Elvis
Presley, who added country and
western. Then on to the Beatles’
taking Chcuk Berry, etc., and askthe record ining millions
dustry making even more. These
guys did have some talent, but
the pattern for the most part remained the same; Whites got rich
on black music. Except somewhere long the lines something

kids began to think.
For the first time kids were no
longer teen-aged, but teenagers.

Local youth organize
new interracial group
A group of area high school
students has begun various projects in an attempt to “achieve
a better understanding” between
the races.
Among the efforts of Youth for
Interracial Advancement (YOUFORIA), comprised of students
from Buffalo Seminary and Kenmore East High School, is a fundraising campaign to aid in the development of a community cooperative store in the Masten area.
YOUFORIA also plans to participate in an Open Housing rally
in Delaware Park on Saturday.
Tentative future projects include a weekly 15-minute panel
discussion on WBFO radio.
The organization was originally
founded as a social group in
which young whites and blacks
could meet on equal ground, ac-

cording to Carol Kapuza, general
coordinator of the group’s activi-

ties.
The fund-raising campaign for
the Masten community cooperative will be kicked-off by a Talent
Marathon on Oct. 19.
Continuous music will be provided by local groups from 10
a.m. to 5 p.m. in the parking lot
of the Washington St. Buffalo
Savings Bank.
Any musical group wishing to
perform in the Marathon should
call Miss Kapuza at 833-4763.

a shower
. .

PawPaw, FooFoo and JuJu—
I never did discover the significance of that title
could possibly have been a clever little
book, but Mr. Unger can’t write.
There are just too many “therewiths,” and “heretofores,” and
too often instead of saying outright “I did this," Mr. Unger falls
victim to the pompous “One is
able to do this.”
He’s too far removed to convince me that the book was a
journal, written during his two
years in the Peace Corps. Instead,
it has a self-conscious quality.
Mr. Unger knew he was writing
for the public and was tediously
careful in his choice of words,
experiences and feelings.
—

When the Peace Corps program
was initiated in 1961 under President Kennedy’s administration, it
immediately attracted many New
Frontier enthusiasts, who for
many reasons
most of them
probably altruistic
gave two
years of their lives in the service of a "backward” or "underdeveloped” country. Thus, Marvin
H. Unger, a State University of
Buffalo alumnus and native Buffalonian, found himself teaching
science in Liberia, West Africa,
between 1964 and 1966.
Mr. Unger’s memoirs, or “reflections” as he calls them, contain a few fascinating accounts
of life in that tropical rain-forest
coastal country. However, for the
most part, you must wade through
jungles of stifled verbiage to find
those little gems.
Case in point: It takes Mr. Unger 31 pages finally to get to
telling us about his main function in the Corps —teaching. It
takes him 206 pages, where 100
would have sufficed.

In all fairness to Mr. Unger,

His book is not totally lacking

Buffalo soccer club

The newly-formed State University of Buffalo Soccer Club takes
I h e field Thursday afternoon
against rugged Buffalo State College in what promises to be the
■Kickers’ toughest game of the
season.
The Bulls, sporting a 2-0 record,
will find Buffalo State no pushover. The Orangemen were semifinalists a year ago in the NCAA
College Division. Only a 2-1 loss
to Navy kept Buffalo State from
advancing to the 1967 National
Championships.
If the Bulls are to upset State,
they’ll have to get 100% from
every man. “There’s a very good

So far, the Bull soccermen have
scored six goals in game competition. They defeated the Sauers—a Buffalo soccer club—-twice, by
scores of 2-1 and 4-3. Tied for
the scoring leadership are playercoach Mike Nicalau, Jong Chen
and Edgar Rojas, with two goals
each.
Game time for Thursday’s Buffalo-Buffalo State encounter will
be 5 p.m. at the Elmwood Ave.
campus. A large stiident turnout
is expected. As one Bull soccer
player put it: “We certainly
would appreciate a nice crowd

She’s blonde, pretty and has

Her blue eyes glisten with vitality as she talks about her
cheerleading background: “I first
started cheering in high school
in Germany. My father is in the
Army and we’ve really moved
around a lot.”
This is Judy’s second year as
captain of the Buffalo cheerleaders. Before every basketball and
football game, she leads her
squad of eight cheerleaders in
a rousing chorus of “fin Buffalo.

collegiate athletic events.”

Tuesday,

October 8, 1968

Judy believes another key to
school spirit lies in “making the
students more aware of the University athletic program.” With
this idea in mind, the cheerleaders have set up a bulletin board
in Norton Hall listing all game
times and other information.
Pep rallies are another item
on the cheerleaders’ agenda. A
Sept. 26 pep rally held at the
Norton fountain area attracted
over 300 students and was termed
“the liveliest in years” by ticket
manager Dan Daniels.

And according to Judy, the
Sept. 26 rally was only the beginning. “We’re working ~mr~a
bon-fire pep rally for Homecoming,” says the perky cheerleader.
Which means that if one Judy
Powell has anything to do with it,
this campus is going to rock with
school-spirit.
Next time you attend

a Buffalo

sports event, pay attention to
the blonde cheerleader with the
blue-and-white sweater. Her name
is Judy Powell, and she has
school spirit.

Eagle head coach Joe Yukica,
new to the home fans at Alumni
Stadium at Chestnut Hill, pulled
a surprise attack on the Bulls.
He yanked his senior first-string
quarterback out of the line-up
early in the second quarter. Sophomore flinger Frank Harris took
over for Joe Marzetti and directed

the offensive attack.
After two of Buffalo quarterback Denny Mason’s passes were
intercepted
they went for
naught as the Bull defensive unit
forced the Eagles to punt on each
occasion—Harris started a 41-yard
drive. It led to Eagle paydirt
after defensive back Gary Dancewicz stole another of Mason’s
aerials.
—

Offense lacking
Although the Blue and White
defensive unit was quite effective in holding the opposition, the
offensive unit just couldn’t score
despite a number of golden opportunities. Deep in enemy territory the Bulls were stopped by
an alert Boston defense as it recovered a Buffalo fumble on its
own five yard line. The Blue and
White had moved swiftly down
the filed, but to no avail.

On the first drive of the fourth
period the Bulls were only four
yards from the goal line with
four downs to score. However,
they were stopped stone cold, as
four running • plays produced
nothing but crunched bodies.
Other than quarterback Harris,
the Eagles’ offensive attack was

Mason once he started to connect on some passes, wound up
the afternoon with, another Bull
record as he completed 19 of 35
pass attempts, both highs for completions and number of pass attempts in a single game.

Ashley was his main target. He
again came up with some fine
receptions and played as though
the injury to his knee a year ago
had never happened. Leaping
high among two or three Eagle
defenders on several occasions, he
still came down with the ball in

his hands. Dick wound up the
afternoon with ten receptions for

127 yards.

Junior tight end Paul Lang also
had some beautiful pass receptions as he hauled in seven of
Mason’s aerials for 103 yards.
The Buffalo running attack was
thwarted as fleet tailback Kenny
Rutkowski was held to only 31
yards in 17 attempts. The Bulls’
longest runs covered only 16

lop Course? It is our mai ■agement development program for graduates
id degrees.
in July with four weeks of orientation at our home offices in Bethlehem,
Pa. Loopers attend lectures on every phase of the corporation’s activities, and make almost daily
visits to a steel plant.

Steel Plant Loopers, who comprise a majority of the average loop class of (50 to 200 graduates,
proceed to various plants where they go through a brief orientation program before beginning
their on-the-job training assignments. Within a short time after joining the course, most loopers
are ready for assignments aimed toward higher levels of management.

How about other loopers? Our Sales Department loopers (30 or so) remain at the home office for
about a year of training. Most are then assigned to district offices where they lake over established

accounts.

Fabricated Steel Construction loopers are trained in a drafting room, on a field erection project,
in a fabricating shop, and in an engineering office. A looper’s first work assignment is based on
interests and aptitudes disclosed during this program.
Loopers in Accounting, Shipbuilding. Mining, Research, Traffic, Purchasing, Finance and Law,
General Services, and Industrial and Public Relations go through training programs tailored to
their types of work.
Where would YOU fit in? Check your degree or the one most similar to it.

In his first campus address,
he noted that the military is very
close to the people: “The military
even dominates academic life in
that its research is done mainly
on university campuses which in
turn depend on military funds
to continue their education program.
Mr. O’Dwyer has been a severely criteized by state Democratic leaders for his refusal to
Vice President Humthe Party’s Presidential
nominee. “I have said that any
waiver on my part from my decision would support his energies
and dilute my war opposition
stand. I have no intention of
doing it.”

phrey,

•Playta*

&gt;t

The first question raised from
the floor was in reference to the
superiority of O’Dwyer’s qualifications to those of GOP Sen.
Jacob K. Javits, his opponent. He
commented: "I have no quarrel
with Javitz. The main difference between us is that I am not
backing the Nixon-Agnew ticket.
The second difference is the War.
Two days after the state primary,
he joined me in a plea fbr a
cease-fire in Vietnam, but in '67
praised the domino theory rationalizing our presence in Southeast Asia and supported renewed
bombing. He also persists in backing the administration's draft
system.”
The rally concluded with a
reference to the draft system.
His view that the present system
be abandoned and replaced with
a voluntary one was substantiated: “If the benefits were better,
more would follow the military
as a career. No system, including
a voluntary one, will give perfection.

What are we paying for?

Athletic inequities criticized

For four years the Faculty-Student Association has been
tossing around ideas on what to do with $1 million worth of
unused land in Amherst. The land is adorned this year by
scattered picnic tables arid a few geese, but for the most part
it just saps the FSA “bank” of an amazing amount of money.
This year’s proposed budget alone is close to $36,000.
Most of us here have been as unaware of this use of
student fees as we are of the limited facilities for which
we’re paying. And $36,000 is a helluva lot to pay for a picnic
area, by anyone’s money.

equipment costs.
The FSA has paid $10,000 a year in taxes on the land,
another item which deserves a thorough investigation. Even
the FSA lawyer is unsure why these taxes have been paid,
since the FSA is a non-profit organization.
The membership corporation is a good one. The land
should be given back into the hands of the students, where
it belongs
and where hopefully it may realize its full
potential.

A most

uncommon man

What little enthusiasm students may still have in the
“two-party” system must depend upon a few selected state
and local candidates being heralded as the “new look” for
the post-LBJ-HHH Democratic Party.
Paul O’Dwyer is such a man. A rare breed in the domi-

nant national party structure, he is marked by a direct approach and a sincerity uncommon in a politician. He won

great support for the McCarthy forces in pre-convention New
York politics, and his staunch refusal to support the Democratic establishment has helped maintain his remarkably
unblemished position.

A member of a “liberal" party running against an established Republican “liberal,” Paul O’Dwyer is a most uncommon man: A liberal who has not sold out.

For a fair shake
The University Union Activities Board brought many
exceptional groups to the campus this past week for their
pop music festival, but poor planning ruined the concerts
for most who attended, and kept away many who wanted
to attend.
It is unfortunate that Clark Gym
with its meager
seating capacity and poor acoustics
was the only facility
available for the program. Even so, that was no excuse for
selling more tickets than the number of adequate seats
aavilable. Many found themselves sitting in windowsills, behind amplifiers and two-to-a-seat.

Publicity for ticket sales was nonexistent. Only those

thing has already
tickets have surrepticiously

Ticket sales for the concert series should have been
staggered and well-publicizd at last a wek in advance. The
UUAB committee should have counted the number of seats
it had before it sold its tickets. Concerts are enjoyable only
when the audience has room to breathe, and everyone has a
fair chance to get in.

Memorial Auditorium
Former Governor
George C. Wallace played to a large and enthusiastic crowd here Friday evening. It was an event
well worth witnessing.
—

Wallace and his entourage have an unabashed
“folksiness” about them. The musicians do not
hesitate to play anachronistic country and western
tunes. The introductory speakers do not hesitate to
lead the audience in “God Bless America” whenever
some pep is required.
One gets the feeling he is attending an old revival meeting, Wallace and his spokesmen fervently
ask the audience to “believe” in America and all
for which it stands. The United States is not discussed as a political entity. Instead, it is presented
as a mystique—shrouded body of “plain folks” who
could do no wrong if the “anarchists” were eliminated.

The choruses of “Sieg Heil” which anti-Wallace
demonstrators shouted were wasted on the general
audience. Instead of producing a wave of revulsion
for Wallace and his policies, the “Sieg Heils” held
many onlookers in morbid fascination. Many proWallace supporters actually joined in the stiffarmed salute. Apparently Hitler used a very good
gimmick for encouraging audience participation.
General Curtis Le May contributed a 24-word address. His propensity toward blundering on the
speaker’s platform is obviously too much for even
Wallace, The governor is a thorough and accomplished politician. The general is unprecedented as
a candidate with total disregard for tact. Even Governor Agnew is a shrew and calculated speaker by

‘False assumptions’ charged
To the editor:
The editorial in The Spectrum (Oct. 4), asking
students to vote no on the athletics fee referendum,
makes completely juvenile, false assumptions.
You come out and say that the school needs
parking facilities and increased scholarships for underprivileged students, and you infer that the football team takes this money out of the mouths of the
underprivileged and puts it into the football field.
First, if about 83% of the students don’t pay
their intercollegiate athletics fee, as is the case,
how is this money going to build a parking lot?
The mandatory fee would make it impossible for
the Athletic Department to have a fixed budget and
they would not have to “squeeze” monies out of the
general fund that would build parking lots and
hopefully help the underprivileged.
The students support extracurriculars—including
newspapers—and athletics are just another activity,
except thousands can participate, providing a diverse activity from the regular campus life and a
huge profit for the school which can be used for
scholarships and parking facilities—a possibility in
a few years. Look ahead and look around, instead
of behind and inside.
Scott Slesinger

comparison.

Wallace supporters seem to be incredibly stereotyped in appearance. They are overwhelmingly
plain and anonymous to the observer. They respond
to stimulus almost as if on cue. Gov. Wallace knows
precisely what will whip them into a frenzy. Perhaps that is why his speeches fail to be varied from
region to region. Wallace supporters do not respond
to issues; instead, they react to clever phrasing and
presentation.
The walk-out by the anti-Wallace demonstrators
was an effective move. The gaping holes left in the
audience were reminders that the Wallace contingent was not as significant as anticipated.
Violence appeared after the conclusion of the
rally. There were reports of several fist fights. In
one instance, shots were apparently fired from a
passing car.

Several State University Buffalo students were
arrested on various charges. Student Association
Coordinator of Student Rights, Fred Hollander
spent most of Friday night and early Saturday
ly by the police and he was able to act effectively
on behalf of the arrested students.

This is perhaps the first time in which a member
of the Student Association has, acted to release a
student from police custody. In the past, the Dean
of Students has performed this duty, acting in loco

parentis.

Mr. Hollander has taken an important step in
defining the relation of the student to the University. The days of the University as benevolent des-

pot are over.

Sub-board I meets this week, and it is time some progress
was made with this headache. We must stop dribbling funds
into a sponge: Either sell the land or find the means to generate the capital to develop it. It may be mortgaged and part
of it sold, either by using student reserves or by a student
fee assessment. If nothing can be done to further develop
the tract, then it ought to be shut down completely for the
time being, eliminating $26,000 in maintenance, salaries and

To the editor:
I have followed with great interest comments in
The Spectrum and our local press regarding State
University of Buffalo athletics and the current
question of reinstatement of mandatory athletic
fees. I hope that you will make every effort to
assure that the true issue in the upcoming referendum will not be lost in the confusie|i of debate.
As I see it, the primary question to be decided is:
“Does the average student wish to provide his financial support for a ‘big time’ football program?”
It would appear from the evidence of adequate state
support of other more modest programs seen on
other state campuses that there is little chance that
all athletics would collapse without mandatory fees.
It is also my understanding that intramural and
recreational programs are supported by state funds
and do not require any student fees for their continuance.
It is shocking to learn that the present football
coaching staff—which I understand numbers ten
individuals—is being paid out of state funds provided for professional physical education staffing;
and to hear from University students that none of
these individuals are presently teaching any classes
in the physical education program or conducting
any recreational or intramural programs. It appears
that approximately seven other staff members are
provided to coach all other athletic teams while
conducting all physical education classes and extracurricular programs for the remaining students.
Such domination of an area within the University
should make one pause and question the wisdom
of any increase in student support of any program
which permits it.

The process of selecting a new

committee is to be chosen by
President Meyerson from a rostrum of nominees presented to

faculty, students or administrators, will then work with the Educational Policy and Programs

strength and motivation at the

'Search committee'

An original resignation was reported to have been submitted
by Dr. Snell earlier in May, at
which time he was offered the
position of College Master and
turned it down. Several weeks
ago, in a meeting with President
Meyerson, Dr. Snell again submitted his resignation and was offered the post of College Master,
which he then accepted.
As Dean of the Gradua t e
School, Dr. Snell presided over
the graduate faculty, an elite
group elected by the faculty-atlarge.

It is unlikely, however, that the suggestions will survive the vote of the Faculty

During the meeting of the Student Senate, ROTC classes were described as "wanting in academic substance and academic quality" and a professor likened them to such
extracurricular activities as "archery and choral singing."
An ROTC student replied that "we don't sit there and ponder napalm. We discuss
the role of the military in the U.S. power structure."
Opposition to ROTC began in the fall of 1967 when students picketed the administration to abolish credit. A campus poll this past spring showed the students behind
total abolishment of credit by about five to three.

If you were at the gym Monday night to
hear and see the Chambers Brothers, perhaps you will be so kind as to inform this
misguided youth—and my wife—just how
to reconcile himself to the review of the
concert written by C. Wesley Steiner and
printed Tuesday in The Buffalo Evening
News. C. Wesley feels that the concert
was a “disaster.” “This group has no concept of music or even noise. They play
in front of a psychedelic film of a child’s
ping-pong paddle ball which changes density, shape, and movement patterns, with
various connotations of animalistic vulgarthis comment undoubtedly the
ities,”
product of a scientific investigation behind the stage where the film projector

World morality questioned
by Randall Eng
World News

Editor

Thirty years ago this week Hitler and
Mussolini confronted the world at Munich.
Peace in our time” was the promise
held. Six years of total war was the net
result.
Today, Prague is once again occupied.
The banners are different and the uniforms varied, but the ruthless suppression
of freedom is the same. It is unlikely
that the Czechs see many contrasts between 1938 and 1968. Soviet jackboots are
probably indistinguishable from Nazi jackboots.

•

/

The Czechs had nothing to say about
their fate in 1938. Britain and France
agreed that the Sudetenland was “predominantly German in character.” They
agreed to the German occupation with
the stipulation that a plebiscite be held
to determine whether or not the Czechs
wished to become part of the German
nation. The plebiscite was never held.
In 1968, Moscow has invaded Czechoslovakia in order to “safeguard socialism
in our time.” The flavor of these words
suggests a poor paraphrase of Chamberlain. Soviet spokesmen do not even hint

at something as democratic as a plebiscite.
Instead, they declare that they will remain
until the process of “normalization” is
achieved.
In 1938, the Czechs blamed France for
much of their miseries. They remembered
how French statesmen had encouraged
the Czechs to mobilize and resist the
German moves. When the dust had settled,
Czechoslovakia stood alone. Apparently
it was much easier to speak against aggression than to fight it.
Today, the Czechs are bitter once more,
but this time against the United States.
They recall the post-war Yalta agreements
in which the U.S. and the Soviet Union
divided the world into de facto spheres
of influence. The U.S. is the declared foe
of Communist aggression in Southeast
Asia. It turns, however, a very deaf ear
toward current Czech pleas. It’s unfortunate that Czechoslovakia is not in the
American Pacific lake. Nothing can be
done for her since she is in the other
fellows’ yard.
Thirty years has not done much for
world morality. Granted, the uniforms
are different as well as the flags, but the
sentiments are still the same.

The Buffalo River—a creek which has
the misfortune of running its course
through South Buffalo—was so polluted
two years ago as to be a fire hazard. There
was some big news this summer when
Army engineers came in and pumped so
many thousands of pounds of glop, scum
and other residues off the bottom of the
river and right into Lake Erie—this makes
sense. Now, to the relief of the city, Rep.
McCarthy says that the polluters of the
river are “going to get burned.” Cornell
Aeronautical Lab and the city signed a
contract, part of which states that Cornell
will determine the composition of the
pollutants and their sources. Also, Cornell
will experiment with oil containment and

removal from the river, and the contamination accountable to the Buffalo sewer
system. It all adds up to a lot of meatless
baloney. Nothing indicates how the polluters will be burned. And if a removal
system were perfected, who is going to pay
for it?—the taxpayers.

Democratic Vice Presidential candidate
Muskie said in Topeka that “the campaign
of George Wallace for the Presidency is
contrary to the American concept of an
open society." Of all the things that the
Wallace candidacy represents, it does not
contradict an open society’s democratic
process. George Wallace's campaign is related to the New Left in many aspects.
Indeed, .when he says that he is tired
of administrative liberals looking down
their noses telling, him what is right, it is
much the same complaint as that of the
left. The difference is that the left goes
to the premises of our society to find its
faults, and then recommends that the
premises be changed; while Wallace,
knowingly or not, accepts those premises
and debates their implementation. Both
groups realize that there is something
wrong with our society, government and
policies as they stand now. The question
is, why don't all people question the
premises?

Cornell grad enrollment drops
ITHACA, N. Y.
The end to student
draft deferments has caused a 3% drop
in graduate registration at Cornell University, the Cornell News Letter revealed
in this week’s issue.
—

Preliminary figures showed that 100
fewer students had registered for graduate courses than in 1967, the letter said.

David A. Warren, associate

registrar,

was expected to issue official figures next
week.

While the enrollment decrease is rela-

tively small, it reverses a five-year trend
at Cornell, an article in the Universitypublished news letter said.
It quoted W. Donald Cooke, dean of the
Cornell Graduate School, as predicting the
University may lose as many as 200 more
graduate students at the end of this term,
as students lose their present draft de-

ferments, and an equal or even greater
number in June.
“Considering graduate education as a
national resource, the teachers and the
facilities will remain at the present level,
but the input—
not be
there,” Cooke said. “On a short-range
basis, there will be no noticeable loss,
but on a long range there will be fewer
PhDs and, if the situation persists, we will
be in serious trouble.”
Cooke said that, nationally, engineering
schools will be hardest hit, partly because
industry competes strongly for engineering undergraduates.

He said some students may turn to industry in hopes of getting draft deferments because of their jobs. Others, he
said, may do so because of a dwindling
number of government-funded graduate
fellowships.

HUAC investigating again
by

Joe Castrilli

Early this week the “New Left” journeyed to Washington to appear before a

subcommittee of the controversial House
Committee on Un-American Activities.

Relatively inactive for a number of
.'ears, the committee suddenly decided
&gt;o begin investigations of various radical
left-wing groups. This decision was a reaction to the Chicago demonstrations.
I'nder the Constitution, “either branch
of Congress has the right to inform the
Public” of what it feels are threats to the
security of the United States. The House
Committee on Un-American Activities derives its power from this interpretation.
The American Civil Liberties Union
has continually challenged the constitutionality of the committee on the grounds
that Congress does not have the right to
investigate an individual’s political bettefs. When a branch of Congress does this,
tt is violating the first, fourth and fifth
amendments to the Constitution.
1 he
committee, because of its legislative immunity has been known to exceed
courtroom procedure. For instance, there
18
no Statute of Limitations on the committee so that it may delve into an in■'idual’s past as far as it wishes and
as K that the individual account for his
actions.

Frid »y, October 4, 1968

In June 1968, a law suit against the
Chicago was dismissed by a three-judge Federal panel
on the basis of Article I of the Constitution, which provides that “for any
speech or debate in either house,” Congressmen “shall not be questioned in any
other place.”
The court held that in a conflict between First Amendment rights and the
doctrine of legislative immunity, “immunity outweighs the similar protection
of the First Amendment.”
The interesting point of this case was
the dissent of one of the three judges on
the panel. He said: “the immunity clause
protected legislators against personal liability for their legislative acts but cannot foreclose judicial inquiry into the
constitutionality of the committee of which
,,
they are members.”
There is another argument against the
continuance of the committee, aside from
the constitutional one. Its over-all performance since its inception has been
minimal in comparison to other committees.
Between the years 1941-58, the committee made 45 recommendations. Of
these, 2 resulted in statutes. These were
the McCarran Act (1950) and the Communist Control Act (1954),
These laws have for the most part been
overlooked.

�Anti-Wallace group
plans counter rally
Demonstrations protesting today’s appearances of Presidential
candidate George Wallace at Buf-

falo’s Memorial Auditorium and
the Statler Hilton Hotel follow a
week of debate on various tactics
of dissent.
Within the United Front
Against .Wajlace,, a coalition
group, there were differing opinions about the efficady of several
alternatives. Member groups of
the United Front include: Youth
Against. War and Facism, the
Draft Resistance Union and the
Peace and Freedom Party,
Members of Students for a
Democratic Society, before a definite stand was taken at a general

meeting Tuesday evening,

planned to participate in a large
demonstration at the hotel, but
opposed the rally planned at the
auditorium. The organization pre-

ferred to distribute leaflets as
part of its current effort to become more

“worker-oriented."

This is in contrast to the SDS
program of the past eight months
which stressed an appeal to McCarthy supporters. The attempt
to reach the working class will
include distribution of literature
at factories and shopping centers
until Election Day. '
Avoid violence
In opposing the rally at the

auditorium, Speed

Powrie, SDS,

spokesman, cited the responsibility of SDS to its student constituency to avoid the violence which
they see as an inevitable consequence of such a rally.

The Buffalo Draft Resistance

Union, at a meeting held Monday
to determine policy on. this issue,
adopted a resolution opposing the
Memorial Auditorium Demonstration.
Youth Against War and Fascism is supporting the controversial rally. They believe that any
of the major presidential candidates should be confronted with

demonstrations. They hope to
conduct a “peaceful but militant’’
demonstration, according to a
spokesman, but recognize that the
possibility of injury does exist.
YAWF sees the rally as an opportunity for the New Left to assert .ts leadership in the political
arena. In response to the opposition to the demonstration he indicated: “We cast our lot with
those who want to fight fascism,
not those who want to bow down
before it.” They believe that the
enthusiasm shown at the militant
anti-Humphrey rally exemplifies
the desire for an anti-Wallace
showing

of the same nature.

Paul O'Dwyer

George Corley Wallace arrives
today. He will appear
at a rally in Memorial Auditorium
at 8 p.m. There are a great many
people of all types of political
persuasion who are organizing
their feelings of abhorrence for
Wallace in an attempt to check
the spread of the Alabamian’s in-

in Buffalo

The main consideration of these
people is to reach the working
class of America.

In a recent article in the Guard
ian, Clark Kissinger wrote;
“In retrospect, the most astonishing thing about the McCarthy
phenomenon was its almost total
confinement to the white upper
middle class. It was the organized political expression of the
well-off, college-educated Saturday Review-reading class who
wanted to extricate America from
the mess in Vietnam. Its style
and content were erudite and
urbane. It never penetrated, nor
did it ever attempt to penetrate,

working class neighborhoods, and
its vote analyses proved this.
A study made of 1000 McCarthy volunteers in Wisconsin revealed an average family income
of $13,000. Over half the questioned thought, for example, that
labor unions had too much power.
The campaign did not seek to
build permanent independent political structures at the grass

“While suburban ladies held

And on Labor day as Hubert
Humphrey marched up the deserted streets of Manhattan in the
company of the labor elite,
George Wallace was speaking to
an overflow crowd of 70,000 at a
stock car race in South Carolina.”
Listen to a typical George Wallace speech:
“I think there is a backlash in
this country against the theoreticians who look down their nose
at the steelworkers and the paper

worker and the beautician and
the barber and the policeman
and the fireman and little businessman and the clerk and the
farmer, and say that you don’t
have intelligence enough to decide how to get up in the morning and when to go to bed at

theorists running their country.”

Demonstration?
There are going to be

many

students on this campus, as well
as people in the community, who
are going to want to go to Memorial Auditorium to demonstrate
against Mr. Wallace.
To quote Mr. Kissinger once

more:
“In the strangest fantasy of all,
civil rights workers and radicals
join with liberals in heckling and
disrupting Wallace rallies. Showing up on cue as the ‘free speech
folks’, they play the same role
in Wallace rallies that cops play
at anti-war demonstrations. It’s
a shame because the left has so
much of real importance it could
be saying to Wallace people.”

Wallace wants to encounter
militant, shouting, screaming
demonstrations; it is to his ad
vantage to do so, for he is then
able to point to the demonstrators
and say “There are your freespeech people; they won’t even
let a hard working ex-trucker
talk to y’all folks.”

has been confused by the kingpin
from Alabama. In actuality, figures show that George Wallace is
not a friend to him.
When Mr. Wallace became governor, the average hourly earnings of production workers were
38th in the nation. By 1967, they
had slipped to 39th.
Bet wen 1962 and 1967, the average Alabama factory worker
slipped from $.33 to $.43 an hour

�Campus cops: On the night patrol
by Jay Schreiber
Spectrum Stall Reporter

Editor’s Note: The past two
weeks have seen a bitter debate

over a request by
0n the campus
campus security forces to be prodded with firearms for use under
certain conditions. Spectrum reporter Jay Schreiber spent an

evening riding with the police as
they patrolled University property

various locations in Buffalo and
Amherst.
at

The lonely blackness of the
Country was pierced from the
left by the headlights of a slowly
approaching car. As the bright
rays advanced towards him on the
road, the officer called for another campus police car on the
intercom. Easing his own car

around to block the road, he
forced the oncoming ear to stop.

The officer quickly hopped out
and walked in slow, gravel-squishing steps towards the other vehicle. The driver of the other
car was well dressed, in his 50’s.
Sitting by his side was a woman
in her twenties.
‘What are you doing out here?”
“Nothing we just stopped for
a rest. I was tired of driving.”
The officer checked his identification while crouching in the
glare of the headlights. Satisfied,

he told the driver he could go
and to keep off Statqi property.
Watching the car fade away in
his rear view mirror, he turned
to the open dark spaces of the
Amherst campus that faced him
on the left. “There’s no buildings
where they just came from, so
they weren’t robbing anything.
Probably just doing some loving.”
His face void of expression, he
started moving the car steadily
down the road, his own headlights
glancing off the thin erect trees
that stood scattered like a thin
gray cigar whose trick tops have
exploded.

Reinforcements arrive
It would be the only moment
of suspicion that Charles Sommtaj, State University of Buffalo
campus policeman, would encounter during his first two hour

tour Monday night.
Now, Officer Somintaj was turning his car into the back area of
a vacated two floor private house.
It looked fairly modern and large,
but even in the dark its naked

skeleton form stood out.
“The University bought this
house and they’ve been stripping
it ever since. Every house they
buy here, it’s almost sure someone’s going to try and rob it.
The Streetor Estate—one of the
houses in the area—has been
robbed five times in the last few
weeks.”

Just then the campus police car
Officer Sommtaj had requested
pulled up. Two men stepped out.
“How long it take us to get
here, Chuck?”
“I didn’t time you Wally.”

Patrolling with dogs
“Well, it doesn’t matter. To-

night we got time. Usually there’s
only one car patrolling the Ridge
Lea and Amherst areas combined.
If he calls for help the nearest
cars are on the main campus.

That’s close to fifteen minutes
away.”
The speaker was a big, heavy
set man named Wallace Ashford.
His present job is to teach the
campus policemen how to use a
police dog. “Seven men have
never used dogs. The only two
who have used them, have the
foot patrols on the main campus.
That’s what a police dog is
equipped for.”
The three men were leaning
against Officer Ashford’s car.
They talked easily, without any
air of urgency, more with the
calm of knowing they were alone.
“They want us to use dogs, operating from these cars,” said
Officer Ashford, “But look, a man
has gotta get out of the car, go

to the back, open it up and get
the dog out. That takes time.

The guy could get away or attack
you before you can do anything.
That’s why we need firearms out
here. We really need it for protection. Remember we patrol
with only one man in a car.”
“Couple of days ago I caught
three guys in that building there,
they had pipes and bars in their
hands. I told them to clear out.
Maybe ’cause of my size they
listened, but another man—if he
couldn’t get to the dog in time
he'd be helpless. If I could use
tools I could stop them. Police
dogs aren’t going to do the job;
you need a gun.” His words were
intense searching for opposition.
The only noise was the murmur
of crickets in the background.

It was 7:15 p.m. and Officer
Sommtaj had stationed some of
his men at the parking lot and
gym, for the Chambers Brothers
concert. The beginning of his tour
took him down Main St. On nearly every block, he turned off to
the right or left, up into a deserted alley or parking lot in the
back. A turn of the knob to see
if the doors were locked, a glance
through some dirty windows, and
then off to finish checking out
University buildings sprinkled in
a haphazard pattern all the way
down to Williamsville.
In every instance, Officer
Sommtaj would circle the building, looking for broken windows
or doors ajar. Each stop seemed
like a cliche, dark and deserted,
no people in sight. Yet they each
had a distinct personality to Officer Sommtaj. He knew how often each building was robbed,

what type of vandalism to exexits it had.

no weapons
Officer Sommtaj does not carry
any weapons. Large in stature,
he has taken self defense courses
in the past. But most of his men
haven’t. “I don’t carry a night
stick, but I tell the other guys
they should.”
At 8 p.m. all the buildings
along Main St. had been paid a
visit, with no signs of any incident. Driving out to the new
campus in Amherst to continue
the patrol, occasional calls came
over the intercom for campus police to pick up sick or hurt students. “Usually if I find a door
open in any of them buildings,”

said Officer Sommtaj, “I’ll call for

myself. If someone came at you
with a tire iron, you might have
a chance. But if he had a gun
By now Officer Sommtaj had
reached the new campus. First
to be checked was Baird Annex.
Then it was another house the
University had bought farther
down the road-. Whether on the
concrete that was littered with
broken glass and cans, or on the
dirt and tall grass he walked with
calm, assured steps that seemed
to show he didn’t expect to encounter anything but his own reflection in the windows.

As dull as Kansas

For the next few minutes the
tour became a disguise of curved

country roads. The houses to be
checked were in their own state
of alienation from society, communicating perhaps with the
nearby bushes. Standing there,
with the low skyline you could
roll the cameras and shoot scenes
for a Kansas farm story.
A skunk ran across the road.
Officer Sommtaj watched it. "You
get almost every type -of wildlife
out here.” He was standing by
the door where another officer
had recently been atacked at
night. His back injured, the officer has been laid off for three
weeks. He had seen the door
open and called for another car.
Waiting by the door he was attacked by two men who escaped
into the bushes. “We tell our men
now to wait on top of the hill,
not to stay near any open doors."
It was nearly 9 p.m. and the
wilderness of the new campus
was left behind. Driving towards
the Ridge Lea campus Officer
Sommtaj looked at the road as he
spoke: "We’re not looking to really cut down on robberies by requesting firearms. 1 suppose guns
might discourage some burglars.
But we want guns for our own
safety.”

A job not

a game
The car turned into the Ridge
Lea campus. Most of the lights
were on, and people were walking around. “Things don’t get bad
here till the 11 p.m. shift when
the students are gone. That’s
when the robberies .occur. And
wait’ll they start moving in more

equipment.”
The patrol was over in ten
minutes, the car swinging up behind Clark Gym. It had been subdued, nothing different from playing right field, waiting half bored
for someone to hit a fly ball your
way.

But the difference is that 35
campus policemen are involved in
a job, not a game. Not even the
most sensitive of students have
decried any of their actions on
the campus. They seem to be
sincere men whose request to be
armed at certain times stems not
from any pathological roots but
from a desire for self-protection.
"We’d never want to carry guns
on campus," said Officer Sommtaj.

He was

carefully

listening

for any noises from inside an
empty house in the middle of
6000 trees. A half hour later he
would be back by Clark Gym
where 2000 students were in the
midst of listening to the loud rock
sounds of the Chambers Brothers.

Schwab addresses
University community
“Let’s look at ourselves and ask
raif we can be charged with
cism, and if racism exists in all
colleges and universities, let’s do
something about it. In a statement
to the University community, Student Association President Richthat this
ard Schwab explained
was the idea which prompted the
State University of Buffalo delegation to offer to unseat itself at
the National Student Association
convention this summer.
The delegation justified its action by declaring that this University is a .“fundamentally racist institution” because it is
“firmly based on a white middle
calss value system which perpetuates white racist myths.” Furthermore, it stated that such an
institution forces the black sudent to either repudiate the black
world and accept the white middle class system, or not succeed.
The delegation also criticized the
State University of New York
Master Plan of 1968 for assuming
that racism can be cured through
the “numbers game”—a method
which reserves a small percentage
of its new admissions for disadvantaged youth, and does not
“allow the black student to ‘become all he is capable of being’
on his own terms.”
When the Buffalo delegation is-

sued their self-challenge, they
stimulated the entire association

to pressure SUNY into taking a
mature look at their policies

which deal with the disadvantaged. A resolution was drafted
which proposed that new action
programs be established, more
state funds and academic assistance be made available and additional courses be created for
disadvantaged students.

In keeping with this last proposal, Mr, Schwab urges the utilization of the Bulletin Board system to help black students develop curricula relevant to their

the Polity will soon be considering open campus legislation. This
legislation, he indicated, must
deal with the reassertion of an
open campus policy and the right
to peaceful protest as well as the
responsibility of students to pre-

vent violence on campus.

Student voice

Mr. Schwab stated that “a major problem that the University
faces is student voice
A Fa...

culty Senate Committee (Sudent
Affairs) has been mandated to
study the progress of student
participation in the University
decision-making processes and re-

commend methods of best integrating student interests. Hopefully, their committee (seven faculty and seven students) will not
stop at assuring proper student

Faculty Senate, but will rather
study alternative structures.

‘Rachel, Rachel’

by Kenneth Abramson
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Paul Newman, in his debut as
movie director, is a welcome surprise, having proven an ability
previously unexposed to the public. “Rachel, Rachel,” is a unique
film since it deals creatively with
a subject that has been primarily
restricted to soap operas.

Mr. Newman has attempted to
show the inside conflicts of a
small town grade school teacher
whose loneliness and frustration
are hidden within. He has succeeded in breaking this stereotype, with the aid of excellent
acting and imaginative effects.
Rachel, played sensitively by
Joanne Woodward, midway
through the film says; “This is
my last ascending summer, from
now on everything is down-hill.”
It is a pity that our society so
easily identifies with Rachel.
-

Death is all about her, filling
in the vacuum of her existence.
Constant flash-backs unravel a
cold, doll-like childhood that had
been shaped by the intolerance
of her parents. Her memories revolve around the activities of her
father’s funeral home—startling
because most little girls are occupied with dolls and dresses at
that age.
The flashbacks however, do not
convincingly add to the characterization, leaving most of the connection between child and woman
up to the viewer’s imagination.

Rachel's last chance
Imaginative day-dream segments successfully depict the 35year old woman’s struggle to
grasp something meaningful in
life. As her summer begins, she

realizes this will be her last
chance to break loose from her
futile existence. An affair with

Nick, the insensitive man from
the city leaves her seemingly
pregnant!
j Finally something alive is
growing inside Rachel. In the
hospital she is told that it is actually a tumor which must be removed. This symbolizes poignantly the tragic absurdity of her

life.
Nonetheless, this experience
sets a spark in her nature. She
determines to set out on her own,
figuratively leaving her venomous mother behind. As she rides
out of town, Rachel passes her
house and school, pensively looking toward an uncertain future
with a burgeoning positivity.
Sensibly the film suggests no
radical metamorphosis. Her past
will always remain with her, but
at least there is hope that Rachel
will be able to deal with her inadequacies instead of shunning
them.

‘The Student Association is to
provide four of the seven student
members to that Faculty Senate
Cqnynittee, which has already begun its work under Dr. Joseph
Fradin of the English Department. Those appointments will be
made by the Student Coordinating Council, subject to Polity review.”

Mr. Schwab mentioned that the
Student Coordinating Council is
currently investigating possibilities for a student-operated printing facility on this campus to alleviate the increasing printing
costs.
Operating budgets for the book-

store, food service and vending
machines were approved during
the summer, he disclosed. Although a budget request for FSA
Land has not been acted on yet,
students may request usage of the
area by contacting the Student
Association office.

Harper’s essay
examines UB
by
Asrt.

Joel

Kleinman
Manatini Editor

Editor’s Note: The October issue ol Harper’s magazine contains
"Lite in the Yellow Submarine:
Buffalo's SUNY.”
Thus Buffalo is again raked
over the coals having been designated the “arrripil of the East” by
a San Franciscan sports writer
recently.

We await English Professor
Jackson's imminent New

Bruce

York Times Sunday Magazine article on a similar theme with pessimism.

We must be doing something
right.
Stretching from the shores of
the most polluted body of water
in the United States —Lake Erie
—to the teeming esthetic nightmare on the other end of dying
Main St.—the University—Buffalo, N.Y., did not serve as the
model for More’s Utopia.
Barbara Probst Solomon expands on this unromantic assertion on the six glossy pages Harper’s magazine has seen fit to devote to the University and the
city of Buffalo this month. Her,
credentials are impressive; A year
of torture spent in the “quonset
hut” known as Annex A as a
visiting professor of English.
The essay is an expression of
disappointment, depression and
misinformation, ostensibly caused
by the “brutal weather and . . .
ugliness of surroundings that
took imagination to produce.”

Razor-sharp pen
Using a finely-honed razor for
a pen, Mrs. Solomon slices
through bureaucratic entanglements and deceptive outward appearances as though they were so
much soft butter. She sees all—she must have four eyes—but certain of her conclusions do not

correlate with fact.
The disgruntled Mrs. Solomon
condemns the obvious but somehow neglected state of the lowly
“undergraduates, who should be
the most important part of the
process, but get the short end of
the stick. They are taught by the
graduate assistants.” This, she
claims, is caused by professors
who have “too much professional
ego at stake to come to terms
with the type of students they
should be educating.”
Once disposed of professors,

the author aims her razor at administrators. She found them bogged down in the usual statistical
muck and inhuman concepts that

plague any large organization.
They, “weren't worth talking to,”
she concludes.

Vending vandals
In an all-too-accurate analysis
of one of the myriad neurosis-producing conditions on campus,
Mrs. Solomon relates the sad
tale of the vending machine’s
domination over student life: “It’s
a thief. Eating my dimes, eating
my dimes," a student shrieked at
her one gray Buffalo afternoon.
AH four of Mrs. Solomon’s
eyes develop myopia at times, unfortunately. For ex a m p 1 e she
raises President Meyerson to a
pedestal of undeserved greatness stating: “His dream is for
the open campus—the University
related to the town.’’-Progress in
this area has been pitifully mea*
gre though admittedly difficult in
a hostile city.
It is a sad state of affairs when
the “most sophisticated and intelligent man on the campus and
perhaps its most valuable asset”
finds it necessary to barricade
himself behind three iron doors
in the administration building,
while allowing himself virtually
no contact with ordinary students.
As to that great University to
come amongst the Amherst anthills, the author bases her criticism on the now-defunct plan to
house the entire academic complex in one gargantuan edifice.
,

'Guinea pigs'
Current plans recognize the
absurdity of such an idea, but the
auhor observes lucidly: “The present facilities are intolerable, and

the present crop of students, like
a generation of guinea pigs, are
quite unmistakably being sacrificed to some fantasy of Buffalo's

future greatness.”
Actually, we’re not all that bad.
Even the author points out the
beautiful circles, parks and homes
that dot the city, while few would
deny the elegance of certain
views of the campus, especially
during the summer month or two.
So Buffalo is no less than a
microcosm of America, and as
such reflects its present character: Growing, suffering and oriented to the future for relief of
its ills.
Thanks, Barbara, for putting it
all in perspective for us.

decisions

Make a note of the number: 831-5000 for Action Line.
Q.: Why aren't the lights on in the clock tower of Hayes?
A.: They should be on every evening because they are automatically set and mechanically in working order. However, when the
telescope was erected oif*Hochstetter Hall, a special switch was installed to permit astronomy students to shut off the lights in Hayes
tower when their view of the stars was obstructed. They are, of course,
supposed to switch the lights back on which they obviously are not
doing. A procedure is now being set up with the Physics Office which
should provide a closer check with the students using the telescope.
0.; Why the sudden charge of sales tax on food service?
A.: Mr. Ray Becker, Director of Food Service, said that recent
legislation (Chapter 425) amended the State Taxation Law which had
previously exempted the University and as of September 1, 1968, sales
tax must be collected in food service areas. Tax must now be charged
on all sales of $1,00 or more for food and drink and for all sales of
under $1.00 for fruit drinks, ades, soft drinks, sodas, and all other
beverages.
Q.; The Interim Campus bus dropped off persons who were not
students at Main and Bailey last year but not this year. Why?
A.: The “Ridge Lea” Bus has continued the policy inaugurated last
year of dropping off passengers at Main and Bailey, but the stop is
not a routinely scheduled one. The passenger must specifically request
this service of the driver who will then stop on the north side of Main
Street. This is the only special stop permitted between the two campuses and only when the bus is traveling south, from the Ridge Lea
Campus to the Main Street Campus. This service, under the above
conditions, is available to all members of the academic community,
faculty, students, and staff personnel, and gives them a more convenient connection to the city bus line. Mr, Richard Cudek, Transportation Coordinator, also indicated that there have been numerous requests for additional bus stops but no others can be considered, in
order to maintain the present bus schedule.
Q.: What Post Office facilities are planned for the new campus
and what arrangements are being made for the University's own zip
code?
A.: Mr, Dwane D Moore, assistant to Dr. Ketter, stated: “The
actual plans for the campus Post Office have not been completed. The
State University and the United States Post Office are discussing the
role of each regarding mail and the State University Campus. As yet,
we have not investigated the possibility of getting our own zip code,
but it is an item that will be checked out.”
Q.: Why does The Spectrum still insist on identifying the University as "State University of Buffalo." Why doesn't the staff use the
proper name, ie„ State University of New York at Buffalo?
A.: The Spectrum uses the same title in all copy to maintain a
consistency throughout its articles. Although the University is commonly called by many names (State University of New York at Buffalo, University of Buffalo, SUNYAB, SUNY at Buffalo, SUNY/B,
SUNYaB, etc ), The Spectrum chose to use State University of Buffalo
since that name is concise, to the point, and distinguishes the University from all others.

In developing a scene, the actors work with the playright, who
watches them perform and improvise: together they turn an

original concept (such as the cannibalism parable in “Campaign
Speech”) into a dramatic piece—-

Religious improvisations

Governmental clowns

The other improvisation, “Sunday Morning,” was the funniest
and certainly the most cutting of
all the pieces in “Masks.” With
patpaulsenesque sobriety, a fisheyed preacher justifies the Vietnam war and Mayor Daley’s convention tactics on religious
grounds. In his sermon (Mark
Twain’s “War Prayer”) he asks
God to grant the nation the
strength to tear its enemies to
pieces with all due humility and
contrition. Afterward, at an improvisational church social, the
congregation engages in sensual
antics while at the same time
sedately organizing a “Christmas
Pageant,”
Because it was composed of
random, unconnected scenes,
“Masks” tended to be choppy,
and had more of the quality of a

a generalized 1968 Presidential
candidate gives a generalized address favoring law and order,
etc., while in the background
mourners gather around a flag-

draped corpse—the corpse was
played by a student volunteer,
which may or may not be significant. Then one by one, they
perform the ghastly pantomine
of eating the dead man. The epilogue explains this with a parable:

it tells the story of a cannabalistic king (the U.S.?) who, after
consuming his entire household
(the world?) begins to devour
himself, with the obvious consequences.

is another analogy. In 'it, two
clowns defraud a third clown,
Mr. Smith, of both his feet, a
hand and an ear, convincing him
that it is for his own good. When
he complains that he is now unable to move, they shrug their
shoulders and say, “You can’t
have everything, Mr, Smith.” For
the message, substitute government for the two Con-clowns and
commoners for Mr. Smith. Add
to this the fact that Brecht was
a Marxist and a vehement antiNazi. In both scenes the acting
was shrewd and had an edge of
sarcasm that said “This is everyone.”
Even better than the conventional plays were the improvisations, This is understandable,

One reason for the effectiveness of “Masks”Js the Open Theatre’s belief that a play should
take shape from the actors’ demands and not the customary
other way round.
The Open Theatre, a New York
City-based company of about fifty
members, was started in 1963 by
director Joseph Chaikin. Its purposes are to develop the awareness of its actors and to experiment with new theatrical techniques. Moneymaking, the members feel, should be a side issue.
Last Friday and Saturday
nights’ performances took place
on the floor of the Millard Fillmore Room. The audience sat in
a horseshoe around a black tarpaulin that served as a stage.
With the exception of one scene,
the actors used no costumes or
makeup. In addition, the group
staged open rehearsals in the afternoons for the benefit of dramatics students.

�150 students murdered

Mexican troops
mangle students
by Edward Kissam
Special to The Spectrum

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 12—300,000 students in Mexico City met in a demonstration at the National Museum of Anthropology and walked three miles to the
Zocalo, the central square facing on the
presidential palace. There was no violence.
There was no sound during the entire
two hours the march took to cover the
three miles from the museum to the
Zocalo
the largest boulevard in
Mexico.

It was a silent vigil mourning the silence
of the government, the silence of the
press, and the silence of the people of
Mexico in the face of the most brutal
police repression to take place in Mexico
or in this hemisphere for at least five
years. Mexico was bloodier than Chicago
and more vicious than Oakland or Berkeley.

Editor’s Note: The Spectrum received the following acount of the recent Mexican
massacres from a courageous woman who is one of Mexico's leading poet-intellectuals.
Currently in hiding, she must remain anonymous for her own protection. Her emotional
account, including an emotional appeal for support from students here, is printed in full.

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 22, 1968
The Mexican army, with 90 tanks and 10,000 men, invaded the National
University last Wednesday night, apparently thinking this show of force
necessary to route out the 500 students who had held the campus for the
past 50 days. The army was armed with Mausers and unsheathed bayonets.
On campus at the time of the attack were a group of parents attending a
parents’ meeting, many professors, janitors and other employees. Everyone
was arrested, except those agile students who managed to escape.
Only partial lists of the approximately 1500 arrests have appeared in
the newspapers. Since the invasion, daily groups of more than three students
in the streets have resulted in arrests, even in deaths. General Barragan,
chief of the Army, when asked to explain these deaths, told reporters: “One
of my men was insulted by a student. My men are in no position, at this
point, to take that kind of treatment.”
Justification, on the part of the government, follows completely fascist
lines. There is controversy in the Senate, and the daily papers carry “opinions” from a variety of dignitaries. The government’s attitude, however,
seems to be that the word “Mexico,” the sense of “country,” the preservation of law and order, etc. etc., is worth more and should come before any
“constitutional rights” referring to university autonomy, rights of citizenry,
etc. etc. In short: “Let nothing stand in the way of the Olympics!”
not only the vanguard students, now, but
But the people of Mexico
the “pueblo”
have a different interpretation of the word “Mexico,” and
the government could not have done anything more dramatic than their
recent invasion of the University to raise and clearly define the revolutionary consciousness of the people.
On Sunday night, Sept. 15, when the president gave the traditional
Padre Hidelgo’s “Viva Mexico," repeated on this night every year
“grito”
since 1810 he was met with boos and catcalls. Instead, all over the city
in the square of Coyoacan, on the campuses of the University and the Polytechnical Institute, etc.
the people gave their own “grito.” The support
was tremendous. For the first time, large segments of the population refused
to let a rotten and incapable President represent them.

approval along the route. The government did not interfere, except that
after the demonstration it was discovered that the army
with witnesses
had demolished some 200 automobiles parked in the Anthropology Museum’s
parking lot by students preparing to march. Government action was expected Sept. 13, 14, 15, and 16. It was not until Sept. 18 at 10:30 p.m, that
the onslaught came.
Money and moral support are badly needed. There are thousands of

Twelve

In the past seven weeks in Mexico over
150 students have been killed by the
special riot police force of Mexico City,
the granderos. More than a thousand students have been beaten by these same
forces, their families have been threatened
by the Secret Service and thousands of
dollars in bribes have been paid to union
leaders to keep the student “rebellion”
from becoming a general revolution. Five
of the seven weeks have seen a national
student strike which is total. All public
schools in Mexico from the level of 10th
grade through university level have been
completely shut down. That means that
approximately 15% of the country is in
open rebellion against the government, 6
million people from the ages of 14 to 30.

First victim
The Movement began July 23 when
police interferred in a clash between a

group of vocational school students and
private school students. The police invaded the vocational school, breaking into
classrooms and beating up the students.
A rally protesting this invasion of school
property and the beating of students,
many of them young girls, three days
later numbered 10,000. They marched toward the Zocalo and were ambushed by
the police. Over 200 of them were wounded
and several were killed.
The first victim was Joel Richard Puentes, age 16, who died after suffering
severe skull fractures. 1 saw over 500 riot
police still in the area an hour after this
first battle which lasted two hours.
By the next day students were burning
busses and rioting in downtown Mexico
City. Two downtown preparatorias (preparatory high schools) were occupied by
riot police. The government sponsored
news editorials denouncing the “vandalism" and “irresponsibility” of students
led by “foreign agitators"
“veterans
of the Paris revolution” who were supposedly leading the entire revolt. It was
at this point that an entire group of
foreign conspirators was arrested, including Mika Seeger, daughter of folk singer
Pete Seeger.

members of the government.

That night, the night of July 27, the
fighting in the streets continued in the
downtown areas. Over a thousand students
fought in the streets until after 11:30 pm.
At that time a state of national emergency
was declared.
The riot police, army tanks, two divisions of paratroopers and the presidential
guards moved to clear the streets. At
1:10 a.m. the paratroopers moved against
the students and attacked Preparatory
School 2. A letter from a soldier in the
group assigned to occupy the school describes the incident in which a bazooka
was fired into the school:
"August 6, 1968
“Dear Beto,

No one has heard of what has happened
but that is because in Mexico the students
were alone. In spite of their solitude and
the impossible task of rebellion in a police
state which is governed by a truly monolithic political party, the demonstration
was a sea of V-signs proclaiming victory.

The anger and hatred of the riot troops
was the only common ground needed to
unite the students. Walls were covered
with crudely painted slogans of the students’ demands: (a) fire General Cueto,
head of the riot cops and (b) disband the
riot police. The movement was in the
beginning entirely apolitical. “Death to
Cueto” was the first slogan. It soon
changed to “death to all riot cops" and
then to “death to the President.” It took
Mexican students about 36 hours to dis-

“One of them impressed me so much

Lieutenant Reyes, who you should
know, gave the order to shoot him, to

whole battalion was confined to quarters.
"Today our orders were to keep

No proof of deaths?
Two days lateiAon a television program
purporting to give complete coverage of
the student disorders a commentator very
seriously asked for any information about
the “purported” firing on the preparatory
school door and stated that to the best
of the knowledge of any newsmen there
was no proof of any deaths of students.
Whatever the ease, the next day the
government occupied most of the preparatory schools in Mexico City, running
tanks into schoolyards. The students answered the occupation of their schools
with more bus burning.

�schools on the promise that they will not
return if there is an end to violence. The
government generally felt at this stage
that the movement was dead and that all
would be calm as the students forgot the
incidents of the first week.

National student strike

Aug. 7, a 3-day national student strike
was proclaimed, including the National
University (100,000 students), the Poly-

technic Institute (60,000 students), the National Agricultural Institute (10,000 students) and schools in three other states.
All vocational and prep schools, the first
victims of the violence, supported the
strike. It was ignored by the government.
Meanwhile, each faculty of the university formed strike committees to put out
information on the strike, prove to the
press, which still denied it, the fact that
students had been killed, guard against
government spies and chart a uniform
statement of the students’ demands. The
strike was extended’three days. More propaganda was produced. A coalition of
university and secondary school teachers
was formed, numbering over 3000 teachers, to support the students.

A protest was planned for Aug. 13 to
demand once again that the government
answer the students’ demands. At this
point the Movement became mildly political. New demands were for the repeal of
the “subversion” and “social dissolution”
articles of the Mexican constitution, explanations from government officials and
acknowledgment of their responsibility in
the violence indemnification for school
property destroyed by the troops, liberty
for students in jail for their part in the
riots and compensation for the families
of students killed by the government.

The first march from the museum to the
Zocalo took place Aug. 27. Over 500,000
students took part. At 9 p.m. they rang
the bells of the national cathedral for
freedom. A minute of silence was observed, as at the previous rally, for the
dead. At midnight the rally broke up leaving 400 students in the Zocalo in a symbolic vigil waiting for the president’s answer to the students.
At 3 a m. an army division moved into
the Zocalo with tanks. The students had
not expected violence and refused to move
when the army first appeared. The tanks
moved into the square and straight into
the crowd of students. According to reports by students present, numerous students were crushed under the tanks. The
exact death toll is not yet known. One student who was wounded walked and ran
over two miles with riot police after him.
Others were beaten up as they left the
Zocalo.

Army ultimatum
The next day the strike committee decided to continue the vigil at the Zocalo,
but the entire downtown area had streets
blocked by tanks arid was infested with
troops. However, by noon students began
arriving by twos and threes and gathering
in the Zocalo. At about 2 p.m. when approximately 4000 students had gathered
along with a large group of bystanders,
the army tanks returned again. The army
gave the students five minutes to leave
the Zocalo before they began to clear the
crowd. In the midst of the speeches many
people in the crowd, it seemed, did not
hear or fully Understand the army ultimatum.

The National Student Strike was declared at the demonstration Aug. 13. It
was to be in effect until the government
made a satisfactory answer to the students’ demands. In effect this was a declaration of civil war.

After five minutes the tanks moved forward and charged into the tightly packed
crowd at over 40 km. per hour. People
who could not get out of the way fell under the treads of the tanks. The tanks
did not pause but cut straight through the
crowd. One girl seeing the tanks run over
a friend lost complete control and, screaming obscenities, threw one shoe and then
the other at the tank.

Everyone knew that the government
would not give any satisfactory answer until it was in danger of being overthrown,
and at that point no answer would be anything more than admission of the fact
that a dictatorship had existed in Mexico
and that it maintained itself through brutality—facts which the students already
knew, and much of the public knew, from

Many people threw pineapple cores at
the tanks. But they were completely unarmed. The riot troops followed the tanks
with their bayonets set and bayonetted
any students who were not already running. One woman who was watching the
masacre screamed over and over, “Why
are you doing this? They are only children.” The cops clubbed her with their

As the students fled along the streets
leading away from the Zocalo the cops followed. On Madero St. students were machined-gunned as police followed them.
Others were bayonneted. The people living
along the street threw bottles, vases, whatever they could find at the troops, but
did very little harm to them and were
only met by machine gun fire at their
windows and rooftops.
During an hour or less more than 15
students were killed and over 100 seriously wounded. Army hospital ambulances
picked up the wounded and did not allow
other doctors into the area. It was a complete rout, but did not break the strike.
Feeling is spreading that the Olympics
are being held here in October to produce
a momentary and illusory economic boom
to cover up for the government’s own in-

eptness and dishonesty. Many Mexican intellectuals had claimed this for months
but the students were the only group to
make the point. It was made through their
own sacrifices.
In the face of complete press censorship
—effected by a government-owned supplier of paper pulp and newspaper—the
students became the only reliable information agency. When workers saw the
newspapers print news that the student
strike had capitulated, when the previous
day those same workers had seen students
machine-gunned down in the street, they
could not help realize the magnitude of
the lies forced on the mass media by the
government.

�Indian student contrasts cultures
by Hatim A. Tyabji
Sp*d*I to The Spectrum

Editor's note: One of approximately 100 graduate students from
India on campus, Mr. Tyabji is
enrolled in the School of Electrical
Engineering. He has been in the
U.S. lor nine months and hopes
to “clarify some of the ambiguities
and misconceptions which many
people here still hold."

In the villages of India, which

constitute 75-80% of the country,
because of extreme poverty, over-

population, inadequate facilities

and corrupt bureaucrats who sipon off funds meant for education, not many children get a
chance to attend school. However,
in the cities—where 1 was born
and bred—there are a number of
good private schools to which the
more affluent parents send their
offspring. They are, for the most
part, run by Jesuit priests and
the medium of instruction is English.
The Public School System, as
you have here, is unheard of—the few schools run by the local
municipality have a poor stand-

rule is strictly observed, and failure to do so must be backed up
by a written explanation from
the parents.
Western influence
In college, the scene alters
drastically. Western influence is
strong; narrow trousers dominate
the campus scene and a couple
of long haired "hippies” can be
seen. But unlike his American
counterpart, though still part of
“The Great Unwashed,” Indian
hippies are fastidously dressed.
Films from Europe and the U.S.
are appreciated on campus, but
because of the puritanical outlook
of the censors, their indiscriminate deletions ruin many a good

There is no draft or compulsory

There are no semesters—if you

fail in even just one subject, you
have to repeat the year. The system followed in this country is
far more preferable—the periodic quizzes keep the student on his
toes and help him to go into the
subject matter in far greater
depth. I am speaking from personal experience.

the sickening segregation still being practiced here is being exploited by leftist students.
Healthy debate brings forward diversified opinion, and though we
too have radical campuses, the
majority are apathetic and content to condemn the government
with mere words.

Unlike the universities here, we
do not have a placement office
in the colleges back home. It is
left to the student to find jobs
for themselves. Jobs are scarce,
salaries are low, and finding a
good one is really difficult. Very
few students work during the
summer because there just aren’t
any jobs! There are no on-campus
interviews, and one cannot even
apply for a job unless the results
of the graduating exam have been
decided. It’s a real rat race.

Corrupt politicians and bungling bureaucrats have made a
mess of the country’s economy,
and students are extremely dis-

Studying at an American university has been a rewarding experience so far. But I feel that

include me, a foreigner, in their
extra-curricular activities. I hope

that the fall semester will tell

a different story.

�Cham bers Brothers

Super soul
showstoppers
by

Jeanne

Nalbone

Spectrum Staff Reporter

The audience was straining at
the bit to get them on stage. It
was 9 p.m. and they were already
a half-hour overdue. And since
most everybody had been standing in line since 7:30 p.m., the impatient buzzing and stomping
crescendoed; somewhere on the
right side, a rhythmic clapping
started.

A little red-haired girl two

rows in front of

me stood up on

her chair to get someone’s attention, It was that kind of crowd.
Something big was already in the
air.

Finally, a wild hurricane of applause began as Joe, George,

Willie and Lester Chambers, and
chubby-cheeked British drummer
Brian be-bopped onto the makeshift stage in Clark Gym.
The kick-off concert of the pop
music festival was one of the
best live performances of its type
I’ve seen. It was more than the
music or the light show—-the
concert was a smash not so much
because the audience liked their
music', but because it liked them.
They were sincere. They came
on like gangbusters and they gave
us everything (“we’re f e e 1 i n’

good, how about
a quality which when lacking can make
even the biggest names fall flat,
as did Country Joe and the Fish
before about 3000 people at one
of Tomkins Square’s concerts last
summer.

Much of the first half of the
concert blended together. It’s impossible to distinguish between
the songs they sang; everything
was tied so closely with the light
show produced by Toronto’s Energy Incorporated—when sound
and sight became one and the
whole gym became a breathing,
pulsating being.
Perhaps the best part of the
first half was “I Wish it Would
Rain,” included on their soon-tobe released album, A New Time,
a New Day. The Chambers Brothers have the capacity to take
a song, stretch every note, every
possibility, every bit of rhythm
until they have succeeded in making you forget which number
they’re doing. Such was the case
With that song.

"All class"
When they came on after the
intermission it was all class, all
ruffled brocade shirt, vests and
swish. And they showed their
stuff, their ability to take even
gospel songs and make them un-

iquely theirs. “Wade in the Water" was the first. The drum solo
was an incredible feat: all sweaty
and wild, Brian pounded away as
if he could never stop. He was
beautiful, too.

The Chambers Brothers got
their start doing gospel things.
The former Mississippians have
not forgotten that aspect of their
music, as “Train to Jordan"
showed. Their style is electric—they have taken the best of all
genres, and made a new style,
one which enabled them to do
“All Strung Out Over You" as
well as Wilson Pickett’s "Midnight Hour.” At times, I saw a bit
of The Platters in their style;
and at times, they resembled the
roving troubadors of DuPont Circle, who just wail with a haunting, unforgettable wail.

Blasting climax
The climax of the

night came

with—what everybody tolerated
the revival mission-wooden chairs
and bleachers for—their fast-selling single, “Time.” With Lester
hacking away at a cowbell, and
drums, guitar, screaming and
laughter—that part of the show
was pure satanic freak-out.
The group gave a performance
which was more than anyone
asked for. They brought us into
their world and blasted our ears,
senses, and mind.

Tomorrow afternoon at 1:30 p.m. the underdog State
University of Buffalo Bulls will be at Chestnut Hill, Mass.,
for a grid matchup with the Boston College Eagles. The
Eagles, under new head coach Joe Yukica, came off an impressive opening season victory over the Navy Midshipmen

The Bulls had a fine team effort in their victory last weekend over the Massachusetts Redmen in War Memorial Stadium.
In the 23-0 shellacking of the visitors, Blue and White quarterback
Deny Mason set his own completion mark of 17 in the 21 passes
he attempted on the field.

Spectacular finish
Mason’s passing was complemented by the excellent running
of tailbacks Pat Patterson and
Kenny Rutkowski and fullback
Joe Zelmanski. The unbelievable
pass catching of the Bulls’ two
fine ends, Dick Ashley and Paul
Lang, added full color to the
spectacular finish.
Both Mason and Zelmanski received honorable mentions on the

strike-out
by Daniel Edelman
The excitement over the start of another football campaign and
the anxiously awaited start of the XIX Olympiad set to start on Oct
12 in Mexico City, caused this observer to sit down and reflect on the
relevancy of sport to the present state ,of society.
Up to a few years ago, the sports world was glorified to a point
where it lived up to ideals that the rest of society either couldn’t
attain or had not yet grown up to accept. First, there was the notion
that sports were above politics and secondly, that the sports world
was one of the few avenues in society where men of all colors and
disparate backgrounds could reach the fullest of their potential solely
on ability.
In the more recent past, these myths have been exposed for what
they are, just plain old myths. The sports world as a whole stands to
benefit for it because it now can assume an even more constructive
role in society than in the past.
Some illustrations are in order.

Minor miracle

It sounds pretty crazy to have the Summer Olympic games in
October but that’s the least of worries that have plagued the Mexican
games. If these games do indeed start on Oct. 12, as they are supposed to, it would be a minor miracle considering that a couple of
months ago many people thought that there would be no Olympic
games at all.
The endless string of problems began when Harry Edwards, a
one time discus thrower and now assistant professor of sociology at
San Jose State, organized a proposed U.S. black boycott of the games.
World record holders Tommie Smith (200 meter dash), Lee Evans
(400 meter dash), and UCLA basketball star Lew Alcindor were just
a few of the prominent athletes in the boycott group.
The reasons for the boycott were varied, but generally dealt with
many of
the racial situation in the U.S. The objections were aired
the athletes didn't want to sacrifice four years of work spent in getting
ready for the games without the chance to participate. The boycott
petered out. Don’t be surprised if there is some sort of demonstration
on the part of black athletes in Mexico City.
The most critical problem, the question of South Africa, almost
destroyed the entire Olympic movement.
Extra points—The Bull freshSouth Africa, banned from the games in 1963 because of its

Oakland and San Diego are lead-

Athletics are at stake
by Rich Baumgarten
Asst. Sports Editor

On Oct. 7

and 8, the understudent body of this
University will vote on the question of an intercollegiate athletic
fee. Will this athletic fee be voluntary or will it be mandatory?
That’s the surface question.
But deep beneath the surface,
there lies an even more important issue. What’s really at stake
&gt;s the athletic future of the Unigraduate

versity.
Right now, the Athletic Department of this University is in its
most serious crisis yet. The state
has already cut off all intercollegiate funds except $60,000 to be
Paid in coaching salaries. Further,
Albany has ruled that approximately $115,000 collected in gate
receipts must be “divvied up”

among the state system.

And if all this weren’t enough,
'he State ruled that any payment
athletic fees must be decided
'he individual student. In
■

Friday, October 4, 1968

other words, if a student doesn’t
want to pay, he doesn’t have to
pay. And so far only 33% of the
student body wants to pay for

1968-69.
All these actions by the State
have left the Athletic Department
in a very tenuous position. Even
with an additional $80,000 raised
within the Buffalo community,
the Athletic Department is still
operating at a deficit. The figure
of $42,000 seems to be the most
quoted deficit for 1967. Chances
are that it will be far higher for
1968.
The time for debate is over.
When the excess verbiage is
sheered away, the facts are clear.
The future of sports at the State
University of Buffalo depends
upon the revenue from student
fees. Without this money, there
will be no sports program. At
any rate, the student body of
this University on Monday and
Tuesday will determine the direction of athletics for now and
the years to come.

Sports info
statement on
With a crucial student referendum scheduled Monday and Tuesday on mandatory athletic fees,
Mr. Richard Baldwin, director of
sports information, has prepared
the following statement in order
to "better acquaint the campus
community with the athletic fee."
The statement refers to the
$12.50 per semester voluntary fee
presently in operation:

“A fee of $12.50 is requested
of each undergraduate student
at the University. The fee is payable at present at the time of
registration for each of the two
regular semesters. The annual
cost to the student is $25.00.
“A student paying the fee is
eligible for the following;
"1.—Free admission to all home
football and basketball games,
plus all other events sponsored
by the intercollegiate athletic department when an admission is
charged. Seating is determined

KLEINHANS

fee benefits

by the Ticket Manager in associa

tion with the Director of Ath
letics.

"2.—The fee aids and supports
the following varsity and freshman teams
football, basketball,
wrestling, swimming, golf, tennis,
indoor track, cross-country, fencing and baseball.
—

"3.—In addition to varsity and
freshman intercollegiate teams
the athletic fee also supports club
teams in ice hockey, crew, and
soccer. It is hopeful that rugby,
karate and judo can also be offered some financial support.
"4.—The women are currently
developing their own intercollegiate teams and their support
is also taken from the athletic
fee.
“It is fair to assume that the
greater the support by , students,
the better will be the overall program for the non-income sports.
This especially means excellently

qualified instructors and professional equipment, not only to be

made available for the various
varsity teams, but also to be
scheduled for student benefit.”
The University, on the verge
of construction of a new campus,
will include in its expansion one
of the finest physical education
programs in the world. Student
support is necessary at present,
to compliment the already developed athletic interest on behalf
of the administration.

A layout change for the 1969
Buffalonian has been announced
by Elliot Rose, Greek Editor.
In place of the indoor group
photos used in the past, fraternities and sororities wfll be asked
to choose a setting, preferably
outdoors, for an informal photo.
To add incentive to the idea, the
group whose picture is chosen
as the most original will be given
their pages in the Buffalonian
free of charge.
The idea has been greeted with

growing enthusiasm and compe-

tition is fierce for first prize.
Some of the proposed sites for
pictures include the AlbrightKnox Gallery, a swimming pool,
an airplane, a police station, a
fraternity house, a political billboard and the Buffalo Zoo.
Starting with next week's issue,
Greek notes will run a series of
feature articles on all fraternities
and sororities, highlighting their

image

goals and demonstrating their accomplishments within both the
Greek system and University life
itself. The series will begin with
Sigma Alpha Mu.

Fraternities
The

brothers of Alpha Phi
Omega invite all men interested
in rushing to take a look at APO
this weekend.
The brothers
of Alpha Sigma Phi invite all
rushees to the Alpha Sig table
to meet the brothers and to enjoy
the remainder of their rush
schedule. The brothers will sponsor a pizza sale tomorrow. For
orders or information, call 8324105. . . . The brothers of Sigma
Alpha Mu are sponsoring the Oct.
18 performance of “You’re a
Good Man, Charlie Brown” at the
Studio Arena. Anyone wishing
tickets can call 835-9795. . . The
brothers of Theta Chi Fraternity
will sponsor a carwash at the
comer of Delaware and Kenmore
at 10 a.m. tomorrow with the proceeds going to the House Fund.
The new officers for Tau Kappa Epsilon for this semester are:

Snell resignation alarming

To the editor:

One year has passed since student voters turned down a
proposal for a mandatory athletic fee by a slim margin.
Monday and Tuesday the question again comes up, and
students are better informed. The following facts have been
unearthed:
Detailed information about athletic expenditures is so
hopelessly mired in the administrative mess of the intercollegiate athletics program that the University has called
for a complete audit of the budget;
•

The athletic department has made it clear that if a
mandatory fee is not voted, the intercollegiate athletic prowill “squeeze”
gram at least in football and basketball

they did this past year, despite the fact that the legislature
has officially forbidden additional state funds for intercolle•

giate athletics;

The football schedule and plans for a future stadium
all indicate an accelerated intercollegiate program
and a
tacit assumption Of similar accelerations in fiscal spending
without any assurances of the necessary funding;
•

—

—

A ruling by the Sjtate University trustees guarantees
contrary to opinions in the athletic department
that
students may determine where their fees are spent.
Students should therefore overwhelmingly endorse the
establishment of a student-faculty committee “to determine
intercollegiate and intracollegiate athletic policy on our
campus subject to the approval of the athletic fee payers.”

The purge of a dean
After five months of rumors and two weeks of administrative cover-up, it is now public: Dr. Fred Snell, dean of
the Graduate School, has resigned.
He was not “kicked upstairs” by an impatient or reactionary University administration. He resigned because an
uptight graduate faculty, described by Dr. Snell himself
in more polite terms as the “preservative faction,” effected
a successful purge.
Indications are that Dr. Snell, one of the most straighttalking, creative individuals in the University faculty or administration, wanted to resign because he realized that his
faculty support had eroded to a point of no return. He was
offered the post of College Master because President Meyerson realized Dr. Snell’s obvious indispensibility to University
reform.
The Graduate School is composed of students as well as
faculty, and each group should have equal representation
and voting power on the “search committee.” President
Meyerson’s and the State Trustees’ acceptance of their proposal should be no more than a rubber-stamp.

Local voter-registration

—

which may include all per-

manent residents, as well as financially independent students

or those with fellowships or assistantships
continues today and tomorrow. We urge every member of the University
community over the age of 21 to try and register to vote in
the November elections. Out-of-area students should check
with their local voter-registration regulations for information
about absentee ballots for students.

On my way to school the other day, I noticed
a group of children playing near the school. They
were mixed—black and white. They were in their
world of children; they saw no colors of skins or
nationalities—no differences. As I saw the children,
it made me want to cry tears because of the fact
that their world is one of fun and adventure—how
happy they were.
Then I looked into our world, the world of
hatred, greed, jealousy, war, hunger and pain—a
world of pure confusion, ft doesn’t have to be like
this.
We can see one another as humans and
adults and not as boys and girls. If we are children, then we must play make-believe games,
but if we are adults, we can play the game of live
and let-live.
When I say let-live I basically mean let a person’s mind live. To hurt a man physically you create a temporary type of pain, but to hurt a man
mentally you create a long-term type of pain
which can not be stopped with a mere application
of ointment or antiseptic. This pain can only be
gotten rid of through time.
Suppose we have a friend whom we may have
hurt today. We can ease his mental pain with, “I’m
sorry I said that, Tom” and Tom’s mental pain will
calm down.
We as a city, we as a community also step on
masses of people’s minds.
Mr. Employer, when you work a man all day like
crazy you are hurting his mind. You are putting
pressure on his mind and this man will go home and
put pressure on the wife, the wife will put pressure
on the kids, and the kids will get together and
play a game and have fun. Do you see how kids
under pressure won’t let nothing get them down?
Mr. Professor, while teaching your students in
this car-wash of a University, don’t put pressure
on their minds because they may not understand
your sociological, anthropological, or literary language. Remember, the student also has a brain—don’t ever think you know it all because what the
student knows you don’t know, and what you don’t
know you still can learn. Dig?
Mr. Policeman, Hi. You say you had a bad day?
Well don’t take it out on the public. Suspected
racist, relieve your mental pressure—before you
accidentally club someone. You are not a God
because you have a gun, badge and authority.
Mr. Football Coach, you like the boys rough and
tough, don’t you? Well, football is a tough game
—I played it once or twice. But by screaming and
hollering at a player because he made a mistake,
you will only put more pressure on his mind. You

The following is a letter sent to Mr. Meyerson,
which should be self-explanatory and of interest
to the entire University community. Not only the
Graduate Student Association but all campus groups
ought to feel alarmed and dismayed by the recent
“resignation” of Dean Snell from the Graduate
School:
Dear President Meyerson:'
We are most disturbed by news of the resignation of Dr. Fred Snell as dean of the Graduate
School.
We feel that the ultimate cause for Dr. Snell’s
resignation is the bitterness of reactionary faculty
and administrators toward him and his policies
while dean. These have included his activism in
the anti-war effort, a leading role in the McCarthy
campaign, his rapport and sympathy with the student Left, his attempts to restructure and reform
the archaic faculty and administrative rules at the
graduate level, and his continued friendship with
members of the Graduate Student Association.
Of course, those leading the insidious attacks
upon Dr. Snell will fall back upon worn-out administrative organizational cliches; however, the fact
remains that his resignation comes under undue
and cowardly pressures which cannot be divorced
from his outward concern for student interests. It
is truly a sad day when one of the few enlightened
individuals in this University community is forced
to give up his position because of his support of
those he is supposed to serve.
We do not intend to fight for Dr. Snell’s present
position, for we feel that it is his desire to leave the
post rather than submit to the continued attacks
upon him. However, we wish to make clear our
stand on this action, and to further demand that the
Screening Committee to be chosen to recommend
the selection of a new dean be made up of an
equal number of faculty and graduate students
appointed by the Graduate Student Associationeach with voting privileges.
Carl Murphy, Chairman
Graduate Student Association

UB could have ‘great’ teams
To the editor:

There are too many people who offer nothing
but criticism and take a negativistic stand with
regard to existing policies and programs. I am
afraid that if this University continues in the
direction it is headed, it will become an “enrichment culture for vegetable minds.”

If we made a determined effort, we could
within a few years’ time develop our intercollegiate
teams from good ones to great ones. Teams that
would easily draw large crowds from all over the
community. In a short time there would be
an athletic program totally self-supporting on an
intercollegiate and intramural level, the profits
from which could easily be channeled to help those
underprivileged kids who can’t afford college fees.
Buffalo students should be happy to have
a large athletic program. On
most campuses in the State University system,
football will never appear, only because people in
charge take negative attitudes. We have the seeds
on this campus to develop an extracurricular
program that we can use for total student benefit.
This will put us on an independent, self-supporting
position instead of remaining at the “hand-out”
level we occupy with respect to the state when it
comes to student programs outside the classroom.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

His national campaign has emphasized
both national and community issues:

On black and American Indian liberation: “Our goal is political and economic
self-determination for our people. Our
liberation will require a root change in
ihe political and economic structures of
this country, taking power from the hands
of the ruling elite and placing it in the
hands of the people. While this is our
ultimate goal, our immediate aim is community control.”
On the U S. economy: “The U S. must

Other sections of the Peace and Freedom platform argue for: Guaranteed employment to every adult American able
to work; the disarming and disbanding of
police, replacing them with “public safety
guardians ’; taxing corporations instead of
private citizens, and abolition of the "Selective Slavery System.”
A Peace and Freedom Party pamphlet
describes its candidate as a "new kind of

Drug regulation

However, in cases of drug use,
Mr. Meyerson indicated that University policy is stated in the
Student Handbook: “Any student
found in illegal possession of
drugs must be reported to the
appropriate civil authorities and
is also subject to disciplinary
action by the University."
Mr. Hollander also addressed
the question of discrimination in
housing to the Buffalo Chapter
of the American Civil Liberties
Union. The reply indicated that
in cases where students are discriminated against because they
are students, nothing can be done.
However, in cases of racial discrimination such actions are in
direct violation with the Open
Housing Act of 1968. Mr. Hollander explained that little can
be done without information on
specific cases. He urged anyone
who feels he has been unjustly
discriminated against in housing
because of race to contact him in
room 205, Norton Hall.
Speakers Bureau
Ted Beringer, public affairs coordinator, stated that students
would be included in . the State
University tff Buffalo Speakers
Bureau, which helps place faculty
members and other campus
speakers-in the surrounding community. Aspiring speakers can
contact Mr. Beringer at the Stu-

dent Senate office.
Academic Affairs Coordinator
Harry Klein indicated that students are needed to work on

asks China’s aid

Biafran leader
UMUAHIA, Nigeria
Lt. Col Odumegwu Ojukwu has appealed
to Communist China for help in the war
with Nigeria and against “Anglo-American imperialism and Soviet revisionism.”
—

His appeal was revealed as federal Nigerian forces closed in on this last major
Biafran stronghold and Nigerian air raids
continued to take a heavy toll of lives in
this refugee-packed city. At least 121 civilians were reported killed or wounded
in a raid Saturday.
It was officially announced that Ojukwu
had sent a letter to Communist China
party leader Mao Tse-tung in which he
expressed:
‘
. our deep gratitude to you personally and to our dear comrades in China
for the increasing understanding and sym-

pathy that you are showing in our struggle
against Anglo American imperialism and
Soviet revisionism.”
In his 450-word letter to Mao, Ojukwu
gave the background to Biafra’s secession
from the Nigerian Federation in May
1967, and the start of civil war about two

months later.

Ojukwu compared Biafra’s struggle for
independence to the Communist revolution in China and appealed for help.
“In this struggle Biafrans count on the
cooperation of all Socialist progressive
peoples, in the forefront of which are the
government of the People’s Republic of

China,” he said.
The letter noted that “revisionist Russia” has supplied Nigeria with jet bombers and fighter planes in the war against
Biafra.

N.Y.C. school strike settled
Mayor John V. Lindsay
NEW YORK
announced that a marathon negotiating
session reached agreement to end the
city’s three-week-old shcool strike.
—

Lindsay said that Albert Shanker, president of the United Federation of Teachers,
and Walter Degnan, head of the Council
of Supervisory Associations, “have both
agreed to recommend to their respective
memberships that they return to school,”
“We are all thankful that the schools
can now reopen,” the mayor said. He said
the agreement provided for “appropriate
safeguards” for teacher rights and teachers’ safety, and would also “allow the important experiment in education reform
in the Ocean Hill-Brownsville district to
progress.”

The Ocean Hill-Brownsville district, a

decentralized” district in

a predominant-

ly Negro and Puerto Rican section of
Brooklyn, brought about the strike when
it tried to fire or transfer more than 200

white teachers.
The major obstacles to settlement were
resolved by the Ocean Hill-Brownsville
district, one of three districts in the city
under “community control.”
That local district has said that the community does not want the ousted teachers
to return, but would do nothing to prevent
it.
The strike has been rife with racial overtones since its beginning. The UFT is
predominantly white and has many Jewish
members. It has accused the local district
of trying to impose a racist education. The
district has accused the UFT of being the
spearhead of a white attempt to prevent
Negroes and Puerto Ricans from controlling the schools in their neghborhoods.

campaign.
SDS has been arguing for some time
that the white working class in America
wants for itself a radical change, a release
from the stereotyped 40-hour workweek
and TV set—beer recreation on weekends.

Blue collar workers, the left has said, have
on the whole, a consciousness distinct
from that of white collar middle class
professionals.
Their perspective is an
extreme, unhappy and impatient one, The
average American worker makes a little
over $2 an hour, and that is very little
indeed. His job is generally rote and
meaningless, and he understands the Marxist theory of surplus labor much better

than middle class economics students;
that is, if you’re getting screwed, it doesn't
take much to understand that at a gut
level. It does take some information and
common sense to fight one's way out of
$2-an-hoUr and no job-security exploitation
—and that is why Wallace, by lying and
playing upon fears, is going to capture
substantial working class support in northern cities like Buffalo.
His popularity
proves the SDS point that the working

(Q)

class is fed up with corporate liberalism
and its costly “pacification” of colonial
subjects at home and abroad.
Wallace is very right in arguing that
the “little man," whom he is so proud of
championing, is sick of seeing 20% of his
paycheck sucked into taxes and spent on
welfare—or on a war in Vietnam that
isn't getting won. He delights in attacking
educated hypocrites who call him a racist
and send their own children to private
schools, or who depict the working man
as a natively inferior dolt and boor. What
is most sickening ahd shameful about
WallaceTs not his stand on law and order
or Vietnam (like Goldwater, he lays his
position on the line), but the fact that
his record shows his stand to be antilabor, and his claim to be the friend of
the worker sheer duplicity. Workers are
worse off in Alabama than they are in
any state of the nation—skilled union men
earn $20-$30 less than their Northern
counterparts, thanks to Wallace. He supports section 14b of the Taft-Hartley Act
which cripples union organizing, and he
thinks that public employees—teachers,
police, sanitation men—should not have
the right to strike.
But wage increases are not the real
point. Workers in this country, black and
white, work at jobs they don’t dig. Their
human potential for creativity is systematically thwarted—and people turn easily to anti-intcllectualism, cynicism and
hatred under dehumanizing conditions.
Blaming your exploited conditions on the
Jews or the blacks over a beer is easier
than confronting your boss and the cops,
and that is what fascism is all about.
Realizing that you have the potential to
be shop foreman or lieutenant, or have
the brains to democratically choose your
foreman or lieutenant, is what participatory democracy is all about. And realizing
that junior executives make three or four
tirries your salary at a soft job is the start
of what socialism is about. The place for
, people serious about bringing meaningful
human change to America is not in the
suburbs with the McCarthy campaign, but
in the streets with the Wallace campaign.

Wallace strength grows
MONTGOMERY, Ala.
George Wallace,
still running along but continuing to in
crease his strength in the polls, plans to
demonstrate his popularity with a high
noon parade through downtown Chicago.
—

The former Alabama governor who is
expected to name his running mate this
week apparently wants a comparison
with Republican candidate Richard Nixon
who was Welcomed by a huge crowd during a similar Chicago parade recently.
Wallace claims he has been outdrawing
both Nixon and Democratic nominee Hubert Humphrey. He said Nixon’s huge
Chicago turnout was merely a result of
Nixon being where the people were.
Wallace aides have been saying for
several weeks that the third party’s vice
presidential candidate would be named
momentarily. Last week they said the
running mate would be announced this
week, during Wallace’s six day foray into
the industrial midwest and the northeast.
Wallace has said that he already has
sewed up 177 electoral votes in 17 southern and border states. Most surveys dispute this but several have shown him

A Gallup poll showed Wallace with 21%
of the popular vote nationally compared
with 437, for Nixon and 28 f;i for Humphrey. Wallace, who gained two percent-—
age points, was the only candidate to
increase his percentage over a poll taken

three weeks ago.
Wallace, who has campaigned primarily
in the southern and border states, has
received little heckling in recent appearances. In two trips this month the only
organized heckling occurred at Milwaukee
where several hundred young demonstrators tried to disrupt his speech. At other
stops he found, at most, a few pickets.

Europe today.

Most of the prints were purchased in Holland during a recent

The Glen Art Theater is located at 5606 Main St., Williamsville, and the exhibit will run for
one month beginning Sept. 29.
Of particular interest is a
group of ten lithographs by the
controversial Dutch painter-sculpture Constant, who is perhaps the
best known of the Dutch artistgroup “Cobra.” Constant’s artistry
is connected with his architectural-philosophical views embodied
in his concept of the “New Baby-

Unitarianism cannot be traced
to any one teacher or any one
specific date; its roots can be
found in the thoughts of many

intellectuals and in many lands.
It took a very long time for these
roots to lake a definite shape in

Unitarianism, a liberal religious
view, because they evolved at a
time when the world was rumbling with the righteousness and
rigid theology of established religions which, for the sake of their
futures, did not tolerate any sort
of liberalism.
Unitarianism’s roots can be
traced to 16th century central
Europe, where debate raged between trinilarians of the established churches and Unitarian
thinkers who held that impassioned dates on the nature of God,
the Last Supper, or the trinity
were irrelevant, since only the
Bible and revelation really mattered. Unitarianism was finally
given legal status by an edict of
religious toleration in the “Land
beyopd the Forest”
Transylvania. The date was 1557.
Since then it has evolved into
Unitarian Universalism, a kind of
religious
Frankenstein
whose
most important belief is in the
supreme worth of the human personality. At the same time, their
denominations exist for the sake
of both individuality and fellowship, a situation which can sometimes make the Unitarians look
divided. When such a congregation approaches a political issue,
for instance, there is some question as to whether the democratic
process, unless it always results
in a unanimous decision, is applicable.

Bruce Beyer
A case in point: last May in
Cleveland the UUA’s General Assembly voted to adopt the principle of symbolic sanctuary and
urged that all the member
churches make their facilities
available for “services of resistance.” It was probably this declaration that persuaded Bruce
Beyer, then a member of the Elmwood Unitarian Universalist
Church, to appeal for symbolic
sanctuary, contingent on his need,
to the Board of Trustees at his
family church.
He was turned down at first,
but the issue was petitioned and
a date set aside in July for the
whole congregation to vote on
the issue. On July 19, a resolution
was passed by a close margin,
approving the use of “the church
building as a symbolic sanctuary
for men who face arrest for nonviolent resistance to the draft or
military service on the basis of
conscience or moral belief.”
Bruce Beyer and Bruce Cline
took sanctuary in the church on
Aug. 7.

of many of the members of the
congregational . . . This would
suggest that we all entertain the
same point of view.”
Perhaps the most important obstacle to the issue' of a new resolution of sanctuary was the
widespread resentment of violence. One member put it this
way: “Sanctuary is a very lovely
idealism, but 1 don’t believe it
can happen without violence.”
Mr. Ernest Metzger mimeographed a letter to his fellow members,
which said in part: “If we continue to grant Symbolic Sanctuary

The pews of this quietly tasteful church were filled to capacity. 227 members of the congregation turned out to vote on the
issue.
By virtue of a quick hand,
Ralph W. Stoddard, an area
banker,- J introduced the first resolution to reach the floor. “The
Congregation of the Unitarian
Universalist Church of Buffalo
hereby rescinds the resolution
adopted by such body on July 18,
1968 . . .” Mr. Stoddard explained
to the group that his resolution
was designed merely “to open the
way to new action . . . This issue
is not necessarily closed.”
Paul Brinson, a lawyer, saw
sanctuary as "another try at a
new mode of communication,
short of violence . . . Finally we
have done something. We should
not negate it.” Nevertheless, the
Stoddard motion to rescind the
July resolution was carried by a
close margin, if one can judge by
a long look at the forests of voting hands.

Sanctuary committee

Dr. Eastman, who was able to
speak to the gathering, but not
vote as a member, introduced a

resolution

There was a question of the
possible incongruity of a blanket
principle, such as the one supporting sanctuary, within the precepts of the religion. "If we support the principle of sanctuary

which he said would

embody the spirit of the July
decision, but make it more work-

able. The document called for
the “creation of a Sanctuary Committee charged with granting and
terminating sanctuary and establishing such conditions for its
regulation.” Dr. Eastman noted
that "the church is the only
symbol of moral solidarity and
conscience in a society.” He
warned the congregation not to
prefer “creed to confrontation.”
In response, one member noted
that “in July we thought we were
affirming conscience in some abstract way, but we were really
encouraging defiance of the law.”
Besides the opposition to the
Eastman resolution in legal terms,
money was an important factor in
the debate. Many feared that the
church’s insurance costs would
rise drastically if symbolic sanctuary, in any form, were adopted
again.

Another Eastman opponent put
it this way: “To think that anyone who wants to show his free
thought has the right to use my
person, my money, or my church!
I’m dogmatically against it.” One
member of the pro-Eastman set
ridiculed this factor by calling it
a “fear for the bricks and mortar.”
According to Paul Carnes, minister of the church, only four
people left the congregation because of the incident in August.
However, many of those opposed
to the Eastman resolution tacitly
threatened to quit the church if
symbolic sanctuary were adopted
. . if symagain. One said that
bolic sanctuary is voted in today
. . .
there will be some of us
missing.” And another: “1 am
.against it, not because of its
thought . . . but 1 wonder how
many of us can stay here.”

Patriotism

the arrest occurred.”

Resolution defeated
Those who vocally supported
Eastman generally played on
their belief that the moral issue
should take precedence over legal
or social considerations. However,
the Eastman resolution was defeated by a count of 145-82.
The compromise resolution, introduced by Olive Williams, and
adopted by the congregation with
late-night haste, is an effort to
replace symbolic sanctuary "by
constructive efforts to bring about
reforms in the Selective Service
Act.” It hands the matter over
to the church’s Public Affairs
Committee.
The resolutions which were not
introduced were deemed “superfluous” by the Chair. Rev. Carnes,
who was in Europe at the time
of the August incident, urged
those who “shared in the minority
opinion” to exercise “the same
forebearance that those in the
summer did,” when the roles
were reversed. “At least this
made us act,” he said.

Asked later if he thought that
sanctuary could again become an
issue at the church, Rev. Carnes
said: “This I could not anticipate.
For one, I voted for it to continue.
But I have had to question whether or not the Buffalo Draft Resistance Union is united enough in
its own philosophy to prevent
outbreaks of violence. 1 don’t
think

they

are.”

'Not a dead issue'
His assistant, Mr. Frank Carpenter, also approved sanctuary

in principle and was more optimistic than his elder: “It is not
a dead issue in this church at all.
Those who thought they got the
worst of it could always mobilize
like their opposition did. Or they
could appeal for a new general
meeting on the same issue very
easily, if they were ready."
Dr. Eastman was more pessimistic about the chances of sanctuary at the church, and he was
less church-oriented than Mr. Carpenter in naming his alternatives:
“You do not have to have sanctuary in the church. You can use
a private home or rent a place.

tioning of the Eastman opposition, there were references to
patriotism. One man, after alluding to his service in-the military,
insisted that “. . . patriotism is
an important word and it does
enter into this.” Some were more
subtle; “We should not go on
record saying that the Unitarian
Universalist Church of Buffalo
supports symbolic sanctuary for

This minority has another alternative to inaction and that is incorporation. But the federal government may get you on this."
Calling the night's meeting a
"beautiful drama of reductionism,” Dr. Eastman went on to say
that "as it is practiced here,
modern liberalism is conservative.
What these people need is radi-

draft resisters.”

The Boston College-State University of Buffalo football game

couple of years past.
The date was Oct. 22, ,1966. The place was B.C. Stadium in
Boston, Mass. It was a big game for both the State University of
Buffalo Bulls and the Boston College Eagles. Some 17,000 proBoston fans were on hand to watch new Buffalo head coach Doc
Urich take on their favored Eagles.
That year Boston College'had one of the biggest offensive lines
in the country. B.C.'s'offensive line, led by All-American Boh Hyland
—now with the Packers—averaged 245 pounds per man. The defensive line, led by 6 foot 8 inch, 285 pound Ed Sherman, averaged
250 pounds per man. The Bulls, vastly outsized. were 17 point

end zone untouched.

cold.

With only two minutes left in the ball game, Buffalo drove down
the field and scored a touchdown to make it Eagles 22—-Bulls 21.
Everyone in the ball park expected Doc Urich to send in placekicker
Bob Embow for the point after touchdown. That would have made, the
score 22-all, and a tie against Boston College would have been no
mean accomplishment.

Went for conversion
But wait! Urich had just sent his offensive unit onto the field.
He was going for the two point conversion and the win. The ball
was hiked to quarterback Mick Murtha who rolled around end on a
quarterback option. Seeing no one open in the end zone, Murtha
dove for the goal line. When the dust had cleared away, Murtha's
head was smashed into the turf with 265 pound Boston defensive
tackle Ron Pefsuitte lying on top of Mick. The ball was still three
inches shy of the goal line. The Bulls had lost the football game
22-21.
Two years later, I asked Doc Urich why he went for the win,
instead of the sure tie. “It’s the only way to play the game," said
the Doc without hesitation. But then again, that’s the Buffalo
tradition. The Bulls play to win.

The final Buffalo tally came on
a beautiful run following a Mason
aerial to the right flat. The former Kenmore East whiz, Rutkowski, put on as mighty a move as
this reporter has witnessed outside of Gale Sayers to leave a
would-be tackier sprawling at the
five yard line.
The Buffalo reserves played the

final three minutes of the game,
it was the veteran Lupienski
wfro preserved the shutout for
the Bulls by picking off an errant Adams toss near the Bulls’
goal line in the waning seconds
of the game.
Fine UB effort
It was a magnificent team ef-

fort that brought about the Bulls’
victory. The offense, with the
exception of a few wide sweeps
that failed, executed well, and the
defense never allowed the Massachusetts Redmen much breaking
room.
Extra points
Ashley’s catches
and yardage further added to his
career records—Mason’s completion tally of 17 broke his own
Buffalo record of 15 set two
weeks ago at Iowa State—Chuck
Drankoski made a fine catch of
the only aerial thrown his way

�Cards host Tigers

World Series opens in St. Louis
chor leg of a 400-meter relay.
Here is an analysis of the re

by J, B. Sharcot
Special to The Spectrum

Tomorrow afternoon in St
Louis, Mo., the 1968 World Series
will commence For the second
consecutive year and the third
time in the past five seasons, the
Mound City, situated on the western banks Of the Mississippi River,
will be the site of the National
League's entrant into the fall clas
sic.

The Cardinals' opposition will
be supplied by the hard-hitting
Detroit Tigers, the American
League's representative. The De
troit nine, as did the St. Louis
group, clinched its pennant a few
weeks ago and has been coasting

ever since.

However, unlike the Cardinals,
the Tigers have been playing
their best ball of the season this
last month, to win goipg away.
The Cardinals, meanwhile, have
been struggling since mid-August,
when they enjoyed a 15 game
lead over the rest of the league.
The Redbirds began to receive
spotty performances from most
of the team. Their pitching became average and their oncesteady inner defense began to
spring leaks. They- started to lose
the kinds of games they had previously been winning. Their hit
ting had been mediocre all season
and remained the same.
In the junior circuit Detroit,
after losing a doubleheader to
the Yanks to see its lead over the
Baltimore Orioles dwindle to a
precarious four games, came on
like Bob Hayes running the an

spective teams:

Detroit
Infield—With the exception of
fine-fielding Don Wert at third
base, the Bengals’ inner defense
is . only average. First baseman
Norm Cash and second baseman
Dick McAuliffe are good hitting
left-sided swingers, but are nothing spectacular in the field. Despite some game-winning hits,
Wert had a poor year at the plate.
Shortstop has been something
of a problem for the Motowners,

The incumbent is Tom Matchick,
but neither he nor slick-fielding
Ray Oyler carry better than .200
averages! Utility infielder Dick
Tracewski is much like Dick Schofield, his counterpart on the Cardinals, in that he can play second
base, shortstop or third base afid
can contribute some offensive

punch.
Rating—B

Outfield—Offensively, the Ben
gal pickets are excellent. Willie
Horton and Jim Northrup man
left and right fields, respectively,
and have close to 100 RBIs apiece.
Centerfielder Mickey Stanley is
an improved hitter and a fine

fielder.

Because of these fine

performers, Al Kaline has to play
first base when he is healthy
enough to be inserted into the
starting lineup. Gates Brown, the
major leagues’ premier pinch-hitter, can also play left field.

Study program drastically cut
The Fulbright program for overseas study has been cut by Congress by 72% for next year.
Eighteen nations have been notified that the exchange of students and scholars between Euwill be dras
tically reduced in the near fu-

rope and the U.S.

ture.

For example, the allotment for
Great Britain this year was $680,000; next year it will be $136,000.
The commission has decided to
eliminate all programs except the
exchange of primary and secondary school teachers, for any attempt to salvage the program and
send perhaps a dozen persons overseas “would just be an insult
to those involved.”

In the past, for every $4.00 that
the U.S. has contributed, Britain
has contributed $1.00: the State
Department has urged the other
countries not to follow the American example and to maintain
their present financial commit-

ments.
The program of academic exchange was established in 1946
and, is named for Sen. J. William
Fulbright. In its explanation of
the budget cut, the State Department pointed out that Congress
is trying to stop the “drain”
abroad and reduce the number of
civilians overseas.

'Triple jeopardy'
At the same time, controversy
over the bill to deny federal funds
to students involved in disruptive
demonstrations is mounting. The
threat of “triple jeopardy’ has
been noted by some members of
the academic community—financial punishment added to the possibilities of court action and
school discipline.
Those denied funds under the
law would not be eligible to reapply for three years, an unusually long period of time.
Whether a student’s action is

disruptive and meriting consideration for a funds cut-off would

be decided by the school.

The Youth Lobby, according to
Kenneth Rothschild of Deerfield,
Fla. will act to influence legislation in Washington and as “a
clearing-house for youth’s opinions.” However, he hopes to provide “some rapport between
youth and the Establishment" rather than working directly against
the system.

Intercollegiate athletics is dangerously behind
the times at this University. Students are represented at policy-making levels in nearly every academic department. In the athletic program, they
assume the status of serfs.

example: change in
hours needed to graduate, eligibility for financial aid,
departmental degree requirements, and tuition refund.”
—

These five “factors” bare the wishful thinking of the

statement urging adoption of the policy: “it recognizes the
responsibility of each undergraduate to tailor his educational
progress.”
Such responsibility is only an empty phrase unless each
student has the freedom to exercise it.

Present University policy grants no tuition refund after
the fourth week of a semester. Anyone dropping a course
after the fourth week resulting in a course load of less than
12 hours may not receive a tuition refund. Since most financial aid requirements are based on a 12- or 16-hour per
semester minimum course load, students on scholarship have
only a limited ability for such flexibility. Only students who
can afford it can drop courses during the semester.
The University requirement of 128 credit hours to graduate has not been revised in a decade and remains one of
the biggest stumbling blocks to University College calendar
and curriculum reform. Its replacement should be investigated by a joint student-faculty committee immediately, so
that new reform efforts can continue and others become
meaningful.
Related to the problem of an archiac graduation credithours requirement is one of the most important roadblocks
to significant educational reform: the draft.
Students are required by the Selective Service not only

to stay in school, but also to take a full-course load and

One reform leads to another. The effectiveness of the
new F-policy is contingent upon reforms in other areas of
the University, which in turn are contingent upon radical
changes in policies of the staff and national governments.
We must begin somewhere, but we must also recognize the
important contingencies of that beginning.

all that it entails.

Varsity sports exist to serve all sectors of the
student body. The direction which the program
takes can only be determined by the entire academic community.
Many students are reported to be calling for
the resignation of Janies Peelle, director of Physical
Education. Mr, Peelle will not be so easily dislodged, however. He has many strong supporters
among the alumni and the Buffalo community,
Mr. Peelle has served in his present capacity for
more than 30 years. He is as durable a figure as
Louis Hershey or J, Edgar Hoover.

The removal of James Peelle would certainly
make change a great deal simpler. He has rigidly
stuck to the notion that athletes are players first
and students second. His dream is to move into
the big-time. In short, he wishes to bring big
business to this campus. All the pride that will be
generated can be counted along with all the
lucrative gate receipts. The pride we can keep,
but the money will just be plowed back into the
athletic program.

Mr. “Speed” Powrie, the former football player
who spoke at the Sept. 25 polity meeting, reminds
us that the civil liberties of athletes are limited.
Granted, many players receive scholarships from
the Athletic Departmept. They owe a certain
amount of allegiance to the policies of their coaches.
But in any case, athletes are students first. They
should be accorded the respect and dignity that
belongs to every student.
The exercise of political freedom is a fundamental right. Economic reprisals for participation
in a political demonstration is abominable. Anyone
who practices such policies is a disgrace to the
entire academic community.

The power of the purse is very potent indeed.
Since the athletic program is currently at a fiscal
crossroad, it is time to seek new direction. If intercollegiate sports are to function, funds must be
received from the student body. These funds must
be withheld until assurances are given that the
athletic program will benefit all students.
for big-time athletics, then a joint committee, with
student representation, should map the course of
such an expansion. The Physical Education Department must not have total sway over the varsity
sports program.

If mandatory fees and big-time athletics are
rejected, then a complete revamping of the physical
education program is needed. Perhaps intramural

and club activities would best fill current needs.

In any case, the student body must speak. It’s
simply a matter of lead or be led.

join you.

\

The real issue is man’s lack of control over his
own behavior: racism, war, brutality, and injustice
are the results of this inability in all of us. So
stop popping pimples and cure this ailment itself,
if you can; a lot of us have been working on that
since you guys were little and thought life was
beautiful.
Your naive, ego-gratifying, cathartic
behavior won’t implement a damned thing.
Dissent is an act of will, an exercise of one’s
autonomy—but in our conservative and/or reactionary society, there’s the other side of the proverbial coin: dissent entails a willingness to suffer
certain consequences, i.e., head-bashing, dogs and
hoses. Expect it. Act meaningfully, and those
head bashings and dog bites will have been worth
it. You’ll elicit the sympathy of intelligent, goodhearted people, rather than their fear and hostility.
You have to make people understand. And who
knows, maybe they’ll act responsively and willingly
towards change. Maybe.
Keep it up, kiddies—and pretty soon we will
have the police slate you’re screaming about, because this society is reaching a state of polarization of extremes that will reap horrible consequences for all of us. Then you won’t be able to rap
on the issues and you won’t be able to do much
of anything; none of us will.

Leave Rotary to seagulls
To the editor:

If it were necessary to shut down the entire
damn football machine to accommodate one more
black student who would not otherwise have the
opportunity, then Rotary Field should be left to
the seagulls.
This might even provide an interesting glimpse
into certain individuals’ motivation, since those who
pursue the sport for its intrinsic pleasures would
probably be found slugging it out on a sandlot anyway. The rest would likely be filling out applications for transfer admittance to Purdue.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Polity convenes; schedules fees vote
by Rod Gere
Spectrum Staff Reporter

This University’s attempt at direct dem-

ocracy, the Student Polity, held its first

meeting Wednesday afternoon with leadundergraduate polity groping on unfamiliar

ers of the Student Association and the
ground.

Student Association President Richard
Schwab began with a review of Student
Association summer activity.
This included an assessment of student
printing arrangements. Mr. Schwab asserted that rising printing costs have been
largely responsible for increasing student
publication expenses. He cited a report
by a member of the University of Toronto’s printing service which concluded
that a printing service run and staffed by
students could he set up here. It would
pay for itself in one to two years.
Mr, Schwab also reported that a study
was initiated this summer on ways to
withdraw from the Faculty Student Association and set up another structure for
handling receipts from student fees.

Polity rules

The first item on the agenda was that of
operating rules for the polity. Lee Selzer
requested that the number of members
necessary to ask for a quorum call be reduced from ten to one.
On a motion by Harry Klein, academic
affairs co-ordinator, the proposition was
amended to read:
“If the presence of a quorum at a polity meeting is challenged by at least one
member and supported by at least ten
members, the chairman can direct that a

quorum be counted.”
A Student Polity quorum is 40.
The motion carried as an overwhelming

majority of the nearly 150 present signified support by holding their ID cards in
the air.
A question was raised concerning the

numbering of items in the constitution,
touching off a debate over parliamentary
procedure.

International

student

affairs coordin-

ator Paul Hollander appealed for students
lo make use of the polity and “not get
hung up with all this garbage about
parliamentary procedure.”
Bruce Marsh next charged that “polity
rules are in direct violation of the con-

stitution.”

He asserted that Millard Fill-

more College students are given the right

to participate by the constitution but are
deprived of this right by the polity rules.
SA President Schwab suggested Mr.
Marsh take his constitutional objections to
the Student Judiciary.

Athletic fees

'

The polity moved on to consideration
°f a mandatory athletic
fee. Mr. Schwab
emphasized the importance
of immediate
student action on the issue:
“The Bursar’s office has informed me
,at this is the last chance to make a
change. It would be impossible to set up
mechanisms for collecting this fee for
second semester this year if they don’t
know by Oct. 9.”
Polity rules were suspended for general
scussion on the topic.
The first speaker questioned the primities involved in the athletic program.

“As our team

went down the field Saturday, it became part of me.” He asked:
“Do we want just an academic education
or do we want pride in our school? It gives
us an education—what do we give it in return?”
Mr. Baumgarten pleaded for students
not to destroy the long-range programs by
their actions now. “If we destroy the
program now, it can never be put back together again. It will be your loss.”

Student control
Mr. Schwab announced that as a result
of a decision last spring by the Board of
Trustees, students would have control
over the fees they paid to support intercollegiate athletics.
While disputing the need for big-time
athletics, many urged mandatory fees to
insure an athletic program geared to student needs.
Nancy Coleman, new student affairs coordinator, moved that the following proposal be submitted to student referendum:
There shall be a committee set up
composed of an equal number of students
and faculty to determine intercollegiate
and intracollegiate athletic policy on our
eompus subject to the approval of the
athletic fee payers: YES or NO.
Whereas, athletic programming is
difficult without a prior commitment of
funds, a mandatory intercollegiate athletic fee shall be instituted: YES or NO.

Grape boycott
The motion was passed by the steadily
dwindling body of polity members present. Enough members remained to pass
a resolution by Mr. Powrie which read:

k

“Be it resolved, that the Student Association declare its support of the grape
strike and ask that its members aid by
boycotting California grapes, and be it
further resolved that the University Food
Service be instructed not to purchase California grapes.”
Bruce Marsh proposed that the Student
Association provide written material for
the students which would state all sides
of the issue concerning intercollegiate athletics and fees before the referendum on
such issues takes place.
“It is impossible,” he said, “for The
Spectrum to give students an accurate
picture of what happened here. It isn’t
possible to print all that was said here,
and some degree of slanting is bound to
occur. There should be some means to
provide views that are' not second-hand.”

“Football players are gladiators. We're

an instance where he had been called into
the office of head football coach Doc
Urich for taking part in the demonstration
against Dow Chemical Co. last fall. According to Mr. Powrie, Mr. Urich threatened him with loss of his football scholarship if a similar action was repeated.
Mr, Powrie urged that the football
schedule and program be cut back and
the funds used to benefits students. “Fees
should be voluntary and we should determine where fees go,” he concluded.

When the Selective Service System announced earlier
this year that it would drastically cut back student deferments to graduate students, colleges across the country
cried out in anger.

Enrollment of male students
the fall term in graduate
schools across the nation is actually up from last year and no
noticeable draining pattern into
the Army has emerged. The State
University of Buffalo is typical in
both these respects but it also
shares the apprehension of most
colleges concerning an unclear
for

future.

Reasons for ineffectiveness
The impending November elections, the low draft calls for
the remaining months of 1968, the
Army’s replacement cycle for
draftees and slowness of the system in effecting reclassifications
are all cited as reasons for the
less than originally anticipated effect of the directives.
At this moment no first or second year graduate student here
has lost' his II-S deferment subject to induction into the Armed

Forces.
All of these influencing factors
however, might be nearing the
end of a short life span. A recent
newspaper article stated that pro-

fessional educators have predicted the first noticeable impact of
the drafting of graduate students
to appear in January. The article
added that a Pentagon spokesman said the draft will increase
somewhat the second half of the
school year.
Stilt in suspense as to procedures the Selective Service System might soon invoke, the situation here will take on a sort of
vague intricacy if, indeed, increased quotas find room open
for graduate students. If this is
the case, there are no apparent
guidelines by which the actual
drafting of graduate students
would be easily regulated.

Selective Service advisors have
informally defined “full-time

member, which means at least

two sections per semester.

The general feeling of those
here who are close to the graduate student situation is uncertainty. The latest directives from

or is not a valid occupational deferment. Thus, obtaining an occupational deferment for teaching or research is a hazardous
task.
Administrators here constantly
emphasize that graduate students

be aware of their local draft
board’s stance when trying to obtain an occupational deferment.
“The student’s local board is the
whole key,” said one administrator. He knew “frightening” tales
of students who wrote mis-emphasized letter to their local draft
boards, the wrong words jeopardizing their draft status.
Extreme caution in applying
for an occupational determent
was also suggested by another
administrator who feels that local
draft boards are always changing
their focus on what is a good occupational deferment.

A sidelight to these strategy
techniques is the suit that the
Draft Resistance Union plans to
take this week against the New

the Federal Court of Buffalo. According to Bruce Beyer of the
DRU, “the new state directives
for September have been submitted to local draft boards without
being released to the public.” Mr,
Beyer feels that these directives
spell out suggested positions the
local New York State boards
should take on occupational deferments in particular and he
wants these to be made public in-

This University’s policy, as explained by Dr. Fred M. Snell,
dean of the Graduate School, is
to support all claims for deferments, with the final decision left
solely to the reviewing draft

board. In fact, since there is no
uniform policy carried out by the
Selective Service System towards
graduate students, there can be
no uniform University policy towards the draft. No one involved
in this matter feels the Uhiversity could devise any effective
strategy in protecting graduate

students.

Individual skirmishes
If the draft calls in January do
hit graduate students in increasing numbers, the battle to stay in
Buffalo will undoubtedly be a
series of individual skirmishes—the lone student vs. his own draft
board. The delicate atmosphere
in each graduate student’s arena
will require University support
that is extremely flexible to the
particular conditions.
No two students’ efforts for a
deferment would be the same;
thus, the University’s biggest
problem is to be free of bureaucracy. This would limit free coordination of various parties that
would best aid the student’s quest
to remain in school.

“No,” Hubie replied. “I’m thinking about
a dream I had last night. I dreamed I was
saying something that sounded like I was
saying it because of the situation I was in
rather than what I might have said if the
situation had been different."
“You must have dreamed you were mar-

ried,” his friends said.
“It wasn’t that kind of a situation,"
Hubie said. “In this dream I was going
around the country saying it before large
crowds.”
Dickie also had a dream that night. He
dreamed he changed himself so much that
people finally quit kicking him around and
began to appreciate him.
Then he dreamed that he was going
around the country appearing before
large crowds, and every time he got upon
the platform he would receive a big round
of applause.
When they grew up, Hubie’s and
Dickie’s dreams both came true. But you

Dickie used to get kicked around a lot,

The most noticeable thing about Hubie

U.N. opens 23rd session
This week the General Assembly of the
United Nations opened its 23rd session.
Among the world crises that will not be
settled by the body are Vietnam and
Czechoslovakia.
While the U. N, may thoroughly debate
these two topics, concrete results will be
extremely limited
Most everyone was witness to the Security Council “debates” after the Russian
invasion of Czechoslovakia. The rhetoric
was of the highest conceivable level, the
action taken the lowest. Never was world
opinion so effectively mobilized against
aggression. However the situation has not
significantly changed and apparently will
not do so in the forseeable future.
The same can be said for the American
in Vietnam. Debate in the
U.N. has been severely limited, simply because the world body is powerless to influence the war.

aggression

The U. N. has long since learned its
limitations. Where the United States and
the Soviet Union are concerned, the U. N.
recognizes their “spheres of domination,”
and can do nothing.
This points to a rather obvious weakness
in the peace-keeping ability of the U. N.
To a large extent it points to the reasons
why there is so much tension in the
world.

The U. N., as it was set up in 1945, was

the veto has severely reduced the effec
tiveness of the Council.
Chapter V, article 26 of the U.N. Charter makes provisions for, “the establishment of a system for the regulation of
armaments.” Obviously the system has
not been instituted.
Today the world must await the whim
of both the Soviet Union and the United
States in the hopes that “they” will come
to some agreement on the vitally important question of detente.

The two superpowers are involved in
trouble spots all over the world. In the
Middle East the Jarring Commission has
for the past 14 months attempted to calm
the situation between Israel and the Arab
states. Meanwhile the U.S. and the Soviet
Union are busy maintaining the “balance
of terror” in an already explosive, situation.
Under Chapter VII of the Charter, more
measures are found that the Security
Council may employ against a state that
has “broken the peace.” These include,
“the interruption of economic relations
and communications, severance of diplomatic relations, and the use of armed
force.”

Army troops seized two more provincial
universities as the insurrection showed
signs of spreading nationwide. Both major campuses in the capital are now under
government control.
Student leaders appealed to the International Red Cross to send in rescue teams
and hid their wounded in private houses
and school buildings to keep them out of
government hands.
They insisted the toll of dead and
wounded was much higher from gunfights

Army troops occupied Mexico City’s

Congressional censure asked
WASHINGTON —-A House Republican
said two Democratic lawmakers should be
censured for staging a demonstration in
a congressional building that started with
the distribution of grapes to congressmen.
Rep. Albert Watson, R-S.C., referred
only to “two members from New York”
when he said in a brief floor speech their
action last Thursday outside Watson’s office was “reprehensible, adolescent and

immature.”
Watson referred to Reps. James Scheuer
and William F. Ryan who returned grapes

sent to them by Rep. Robert Mathias, RCalif. A message with the grapes criticized
indirectly a boycott against California
grapes being pushed by grape pickers who
seek union recognition.
Seheuer and Ryan expressed sympathy
for the boycott and a large crowd, predominantly in favor of the two congressmen, gathered in the hall outside Mathias’
office as they handed back the grapes to

Mathias.
Watson’s office is next to Mathias and
he watched the incident from his doorway while popping grapes into his mouth.

In most of the conflicts where such action has been taken, one basic element
was missing. There was no direct confrontation with a superpower. What the
U. N, has had to learn on a humiliating
scale is that when the interest of either
the United States or the Soviet Union is
in direct opposition to U. N. intentions,
the U.S. and Soviet Union determine what
will be done.

Clifford said in a statement. “We have
not reached the level of 549,500 in South
Vietnam. We intend to continue to build
toward that level. We have no intention
of lowering that level, either by next Jufie
or at any time in the foreseeable future.

In Seattle, Laird said the reduction was
the result of “ordinary and methodical
military planning”—and not the type of
cutback forecast by Vice President Hubert
H. Humphrey.

these will be broken in October

�Student unrest, discontent
are not confined to U.S.
by Dorie Klein
Asst. City Editor

On three continents students are leaving the haven
of the univeristy and forcing a confrontation with the respective Establishments of their countries.

France and Germany have been
active in leftist politics on and off
campus. This fall, students at the
Sorbonne, aiming to overthrow
France’s traditional—and admiteducational systedly archaic
tem, systematically organized efforts to cheat on the medical ad—

mission examinations. Answers
were shouted, books were brought

into the classrooms, and boycotts
were held outside. The National
Assembly will shortly take action on the educational reform
bill designed to give students and
faculty more of a voice in the
university system.
Classes do not begin until late
October; whether they will begin
in peace depends on the antithetical forces of the reformers and
the radicals.

Confrontation in Frankfurt
In Frankfurt, Germany, student
protest exploded into a battle
with the police when demonstrators picketed, shouted and barricaded the entrance to a building
where the President of Senegal,

Leopold Senghor, was receiving a
peace prize. State troopers using
water cannon and tear gas were

rushed to the scene to combat
thousands of students; the French
leader Daniel Cohn-Bendit was
among the twenty arrested and
the many more injured.

to centralize its loose organization
and, at the same time, to resolve
an internal dispute with, members
of the Communist Party, who reject the notion of “waste capitalism” and emphasize such immediate goals as higher wages.
100,000 demonstrators
“SDS” organized a number of
street demonstrations within the
past year, in which 100,000 participated, and still faces suits in
court brought by Axel Springer,
the conservative and powerful
newspaper publisher against

whom the protests were aimed.
In Asia, a quarrel between the
Philippines and Malaysia over the
territory of Sabah has provoked
Malaysian students. Four hundred attended a rally at the
University of Malaya to protest
a law passed by Philippine President Marcos claiming Sabah a
part of his country, then marched
to the embassy to tear down the

Philippine flag.

The Prime Minister of Malaysia
first congratulated the students
on their spirit and led them in a
cry of freedom, then told newsmen he had not been aware of
the storming of the embassy and
would take steps to ensure that
it would not happen again. Malaysian police had previously
used tear gas against students

in demonstrations at the Soviet
Embassy protesting the invasion
of Czechoslovakia.

Mexican University seized
In South America, disruptions
in Mexico and Uruguay are the
latest in a history of struggle.
The Mexican army seized the National University after seven
weeks of unrest in a vain hope
to keep peace during the Olympic
festivities, which begin Oct. 12,
producing an outraged reaction in
the intellectual community. Widespread fighting broke out when
students seized buses and blocked
streets leading to the school
where they had planned a meeting. A policeman was shot, many
were injured and hundreds were
arrested.

The government of Uruguay
has closed all universities and
secondary schools until Oct. 15
and called out the army to end
the fighting in the streets. Two
persons were killed by police
gunfire last week and 100 others

buses and painted them—as Czech
students scrawled anti-Soviet slogans on Russian tanks—and students set up roadblocks to challenge mounted police.
The spectre of students battling
police in Chicago may have
shocked some Americans, but it
is a familiar sight in most places
of the world. In Europe, students
have long been involved in confrontation politics; in South America students control their universities; in Indonesia students
were partly responsible for overthrowing Sukarno.
The ivory tower seems to have
been an institution or, more accurately, a myth—peculiar to the
United States—and today its pretense of validity has crumbled.

SEEK aids students

89 are admitted
SEEK, an educational program

geared to students attempting to
meet college entrance requirements, has helped 89 such persons enter institutions of higher
learning.
Students accepted by SEEK
(Seek Education, Elevation and
K n o wl e d g e) are individually

counseled and their academic programs are planned to provide the
courses—both credit and noncredit—that each person needs to
enter college.

The State Legislature has appropriated $1 million this year
for the program. This covers
tuition and fees for the students,
the majority of whom are black.
The program is run by Buffalo
State College as if it were a division of the college.
Students apply to the SEEK
program on their own initiative.

A four man committee from
Greenville visited Buffalo to examine the Buffalo program with a
view toward instituting one in
their city.

Continuing Education at East

According to committee members, the Buffalo program is the
nearest thing they have seen to
total community involvement,
which they believe is necessary in
helping the disadvantaged. Col.
Dubber expressed amazement that
the program in Buffalo is the
only one of its kind known to be
in operation in the country.
Because the situation in Greenville is considerably different
from that in Buffalo, they will
use only the basic pattern used
here in their own program. There
is no ghetto in Greenville, they

said, and the population is only
a fraction of that of Buffalo.
The program, which the committee hopes will be implemented
within the next year, will offer
educational programs, tutoring
for junior high and high school
students and a day care center

nursery school. The services of
a technical institute similar to
Erie County Technical Institute
will be used for teaching vocational skills.

Services to disadvantaged
In contrast to the project here,
in which the emphasis is on continuing education, the Greenville
program will concentrate op providing services to the disadvantaged. East Carolina University

does not have a radio station
which can be used the way WBFO
is used to promote inter-racial
communication and understanding.

lege and at Buffalo State College.
Mr. Robert Hawkes, the new

director of SEEK, says that the

main purpose of the program is
to educate the person so that he

can better understand his rela-

tion to society.
Mr. Hawkes cites two main factors which have contributed to
the success of the local SEEK
program. These are the sincere
desires on the part of the students to take advantage of the
opportunities that this program
has to offer and the honest and
genuine commitment of the staff.

expansion plans
A commission sponsored by the
State University of New York has
released plans for a network of
colleges and university centers in
the Hudson, Rockland and Westchester regions. The centers
would draw upon the facilities of
existing private and public educational institutions in the area.
Approximately 19,500 students
are enrolled in the existing institutions. An enrollment of 50,000
students is planned by 1975.
The focal point would be an

The committee expressed a desire to continue communication

expertise for the creation of a
program.

Dr. Best emphasized the importance of teamwork between
the community and the university for a successful program. He
was impressed by the organization in Buffalo in which the

Cantonsville Nine

Overthrow
by Sarah de Laurentis
Spectrum Staff Reporter

George Mische, one of nine persons who burned 500 Selective

Service files in Cantonsville,
Maryland, earlier this year, told
students in the Haas Lounge
Wednesday that young people
in America are leading the muchneeded social revolution.
The Cantonsville Nine, of which
Mr. Mische is a member, is a
group of seven men and two
women who face trial Oct. 7 for
burning the draft files May 17,
In his speech Mr. Mische named
the situations which he felt called
for social change. Among them
he mentioned the ineffectiveness
of massive demonstrations, hypocrisy of the legislature and
failure of the judiciary system to
question the legality of the Vietnam war. Social change, he said,
is built on the work of many
people accepting the risk of getting beaten or killed.
The movement is not only to
take over the governmental system, he emphasized, but also to
take over the institutions which
allow the government to continue
its policies. Among these institutions he named the Catholic
church, which he considers to be
more worried about birth control
than racism and peace. In Milwaukee, 100 people took over a
cathedral in an effort to point
out to the parishioners the lack
of an affirmative stand by the

of system proposed

church regarding the issues facing our nation.
This was the third such incident which involved clergymen
as well as laymen. Mr, Mische, a
Catholic, said word had been sent

to many bishops encouraging
them to speak out in favor of
their beliefs and not to continue
avoiding the issues.
Having worked in Guatemala
under the Alliance for Progress,

Mr. Mische described the conditions in Latin America which
caused him to leave his work in
1964. American economic involvement in Latin America has become too monopolizing, he claimed. Foreign aid from the United
States has been cut to a minimum.
When asked if conditions in
Latin America had improved at
all in recent years; Mr. Mische
explained that they had not, due
to the lack of aid from both the
United Statees and the Catholic
church. He then discussed the
use of napalm by U. S. Green
Berets in Guatemala.
This, he
said, is being used to stop the
guerrilla revolutionary forces.
These same forces were encouraged by members of Mr. Mische’s
own group to act on behalf of
economic and social reform.
At the present time, he said
there are 3,000 Green Berets in
Guatemala working against the
revolutionary attempts.
Referring to the upcoming pres-

idential election, George Wallace
was cited as the best possible
choice for the position. According to Mr. Mische, Richard Nixon
and Hubert Humphrey would
probably take the same actions

once in office as would Gov; Wallace. However, they will not admit
their aims before the election as
Wallace has done.
He addeed that if “shrewd
sophisticates” like Mr. Nixon and
Mr. Humphrey were to take office, the United States would be
in an apathetic situation causing
it to be involved in Vietnam for
many years to come.

Referring back to the Cantonsville Nine, Mr. Mische said that
they used tactics such as destroying the draft files because they
wanted to avoid hurting anyone
and consequently being labeled
terrorists. He said that these actions were effective and that they
would continue.
Accordingly, Tuesday, 5000

Se-

lective Service files were burned
in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, by a
group of fourteen persons, This
was the fourth such occurrence
since October 1967 when four
persons poured blood on 300 Selective Service files in Baltimore,
Maryland.

This action was followed by
that of two persons in Boston,
Massachusetts, who poured black
paint on the files in that draft
board. Mr. Mische said that in
every case the persons involved
were responsible and experienced
and often members of the clergy
were actively involved.
Facing a possible prison term

of 30 years, Mr. Mische, who is
married and has one daughter,
said he believes that people are
starting to see our violent society
for the first time and that they
are aware of the changes that
must be brought about.

“There are definitely enough

James Ryan, director of the OffCampus Housing Office said. Case
histories speak for themselves:
Joan Giangarra is a 22-year old
transfer student from Queens College. She received her acceptance
to the University in mid-July. Her
roommate, Deborah Ott, did not
hear until mid-August, That date
in itself would have been late
enough to start looking for housing in a strange city, but they
were both attending summer
school until Sept. 2, and couldn’t
come up to Buffalo until then.
Since that time, they have “tried
everything in the book” in their
search for an apartment, including contacting 65 real estate
agents and ringing doorbells
house to house. The results have
been discouraging^
“Most
Joan says,
“just do not want to rent to University students.” Currently, they
are “living out of a suitcase and
it’s really terrible.” Luckily, Deborah had friends in Buffalo with
whom they can stay for the present. There were six in the apartment originally. Now there are
eight, and Joan Giangarra and
Deborah Ott are sleeping on
couches.

Discrimination by sex

Another boy prefers to remain
anonymous, as he’s afraid of what
having his name in print might
do to his already slim chances of
finding an apartment in Buffalo.
He lives at home now, but wanted
to take an apartment this semester. He hasn’t met with much
success.

"There is extreme discrimination in Buffalo against college
guys,” he says. In one instance
he was told by a landlord that the
apartment in which he was interested had already been taken.
As a check-up, he had a girl call
up for the same place. She was

given a time to come up to see
the apartment the next day.

Living amongst the spiders
A female transfer student from

Brooklyn College was notified of
her acceptance in August. When
she contacted the Off-Campus
Housing Office, “they didn’t have
an apartment that wasn’t taken.”
Out of desperation, she finally
took a place in a rooming house
on Main and Summer. She moved
out this week. Her reason was the
family of spiders with which she
shared her room.
"At night they used to march
down the wall from the cracks in
the ceiling.” She later found out
that she also “had been living in
the heart of the ‘red-light dis-

trict.’
Another girl wanted to move
closer to campus this year. She
describes the only place she could
find as “Buffalo’s only roominghouse-convalescent home.” The
students are housed on the third
floor; the second is inhabited by
senile tenants. On her first night
there, she was warned to “close
your door at night. They like to
wander around." One did, too,
.and she had a hard time convincing him that he had the wrong
rpom, as he made himself at

The girl has since moved out.

He had no other choice but to

last year, he was not allowed to

was without apartment or oncampus housing. From now until

The Specie

�Concerts, discussion

Festival

focuses

by Joseph Fernbacher
Spectrum Staff Reporter

The turn of a knob, the pulsating sound
of amplified feedback and the intensity of
a psychedelic light show all combine to
form the general impression of a pop
concert. The sweat of hard guitar playing,
the confusion of an inspired drum solo
and the hoarseness of a blues singer, also
contribute to the modern phenomenon
known as pop music.
Coming from all corners of the globe,
many of the leadihg exponents of this
musical genre will be present on campus

the week of Sept, 30. They range from
the harsh sounding Big Brother and The
Holding Company to the soft melodic
voice of Eric Andersen.
In a series of concerts and lectures the
phenomenon of the rock scene will be
exploded. An attempt will be made to
describe, to interested people, just what
they are hearing and why they are reading excitedly.

Leading the way into the Pop Festival
will be a group known as The Chambers
Brothers. Joseph, George, Willie and Lester Chambers combine their talents with
British drummer Brian Keenan and put
out a beat that could be labeled Afropsychedelic rock. Originally leaders in the
gospel singing mode, they changed their
style, added a drummer and went rock.
Their latest hit single “Time” is quickly
rising in popularity across the country.
Following The Chambers Brothers will
be an English group known as Traffic.
A big group in England, Traffic is under
the excellent vocal and guitar leadership

of Steve Winwood. On stage Traffic
should prove to be one of the most colorful and exciting groups to grace any
stage during the Pop Festival.
Also in concert with Traffic will be The
Raven, They pattern themselves after the
styles of Howlin’ Wolf and Muddy Waters.
The Raven also includes in their bag a
bit of the driving psychedelic music attributed to groups as the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Blue Cheer.

Andersen and the Harum
After the somewhat hectic music of .the
first two concerts, people can sit back and
enjoy the soothing folk singing of Eric
Andersen and the unusual music of the
Procol Harum.
Procol Harum is a group whose music

on pop scene

is easiest described as a combination of)
the bizarre and haunting. The group has
been relatively quiet in the past year or
so, but had ben highly successful on its
two hit singles "A Whiter Shade of Pale"
and “Hombourg.”
The group is composed of five musicians
who really care about what they are doing.
They are: Blind Cucumber (alias Gary
Brooker) organist;
Matthew CelestialSmith (alias Matthew Charles Fisher) electric bag pipes; Bobby (Robin Trower) guitarist; Dave Knights, bass guitar and B. J.
Wilson, drummer. Together they form
a group that should prove to be fascinating on or off stage.
In concert with them will be Eric Andersen whose experience in folk music is
widely-renowned. He wrote the tune “Violets of Dawn” and many others.

Closing out the series of concerts will
be the wild and wicked Big Brother and
the Holding Company. With the singing
of Janis Joplin and the absolutely weird
guitar work of James Gurley, this may be
the strangest concert ever to be presented on this campus.

Panel discussions
Another intricate part of this festival
will be the panel discussions by many of
the leading musical experts of our time.
Outlining the purpose of the discussions,
the Pop Festival Committee officially
stated: “The committee feels that to present a good pop festival, it is necessary,
in addition to having the best musicians
in the field today, to present a full week

of other activities which dwell in the
The background of pop
music is essential to the understanding
that one must develop. Thus we have
decided to present some of the most
prominent, knowledgeable and articulate
people who are involved in the scene. On
the panels will be critics, writers, musicians, teachers and other miscellaneous
personnel who are involved with the music of today.”

current scene.

The participants in “The Aesthetics of
Pop Music” include Jann Wenner, editor
of “The Rolling Stone;” Fred Weintfaub,
owner of the Bitter End cafe and manager of the Coffee House circuit, and Alan
Heineman, graduate student at Brandeis
University and pop and jazz critic for
Downbeat.
This panel will attempt to look into
the criteria for a good record and to define good sound. A final but important
question which will be asked is “Why
are the Beatles?”
Among the panelists for “The Eclecticism of Pop Music” will be Stanley Lunette, creative associate-composer at the
State University of BuffalOj Frank Kofsky,
editor of Jazz and Pop magazine, Doane
Hollins, former critic laureate at the State
University of Buffalo and now a graduate
student at Columbia and Jay Ruby, contributor to Jazz and Pop magazine and a
noted pop music, historian. Bruce Jackson, a member of the board of directors
for the Newport Folk Festival and associate professor of English here, will be the
moderator for the discussion.

Sources of pop
The many sources of pop music will be
examined by the panel. Experts in many
different fields of pop music will discuss
the many contributions of their specific
area to the pop scene of today. An attempt will also be made to look into the
difference and similarities between black
rock (soul) and white rock (blue-eyed soul).

An investigation will be made of the
development of pop music from pre-Elvis
through the Beatles to the current trends
of psychedelic and electronic music. Such
major breakthroughs as the electric guitar, albums and psychedelic music will be
discussed. As a final subtopic, the social
influence and the implications of rock will

be considered.

The Juilliard String Quartet

in Baird Hall.

In

1947, the Juilliard String

Quartet was established as the

quartet in-residence of the Juilliard School of Music in New York
City, In this way the Quartet began their career in music. Most
critics consider them to be the
best quartet playing in the world.
The four members of the Quarare all accomplished musicians. Robert Mann and Earl Carlyss are violinists. Claus Adam

�Massachusetts opposes Bulls tonight
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Tonight at 8 p.m. the State University of Buffalo Bulls
play host to the University of Massachusetts Redmen at War
Memorial Stadium.
junior Jerry Grasso, 6 feet, 185
Massachusetts opened sucpounds. As a sophomore, Grasso
cessfully at home last Saturaveraged 3.7 yards per carry and
day with a 21-3 Yankee Conwas the team’s third leading pass
ference victory over Maine.
receiver. He’s a very shifty runJunior quarterback Tim Adams
made his first start after serving

as backup man for Greg Landry,
who is now with the Detroit Lions.
Adams completed 15 of 32 passes
for 164 yards and two touchdowns in addition to scoring a
touchdown on a one-yard keeper.
For his performance, he was
named to the All-East team.
Coach Viv Fusia has 25 returning lettermen, including co-cap-

tain Nick Warnock. Warnock, 6
foot 2 inch, 200 pound split end,
has been the team’s leading punter and receiver for the past two
years. A year ago he caught 29
passes for 424 yards. This year
Warnock is a top contender for
All-East honors. Tight end Alan
Becker, 6 feet 4 inches, has good
speed and fine hands and is also
a fine defensive performer.

QB Adams runs offense
Tim Adams, despite his lack of
game experience, has demonstrated that he is capable of running
the Redmen’s “T” offense. He is
a very fine passer and a nifty
runner when the occasion arises.
At wingback, the Redmen have

ner who is a key man in the Redmen offense.
A swingman at tailback and
wingback last season, Craig Lovell has found a home at the tailback spot. Lovell was third leading ground gainer while averaging three yards per carr^.
Rounding out the backfield is
fullback Ed Sarno, 6 feet, 230
pounds. Sarno averaged four
yards a carry last year as a
sophomore, although hampered by
injuries.
Defensively, the Redmen have
an outstanding end in Tom York.
Last season York recovered three
fumbles, intercepted two passes
and was an All-Conference second team choice as a sophomore.
The right end position is capably
filled by Randy Robinson. After
an outstanding sophomore year,
Robinson missed the early part
of last season because of a neck

Scheralis is also the team’s long
field goal and Jfickoff specialist.
The probable right tackle will be
Mark Toner who was sidelined
last year by a foot injury.

Redmen use 'Chief'

The Redmen use a “Chief” or
“Rover" in their linebacking
corps. Don Dotson, six feet, 190
pounds, plays middle linebacker,
aided by right linebacker Dennis
Gray and left linebacker Larry
Fortunoff. Cornerback Bill Frye
received an honorable mention on
the All-Conference defensive platoon last season. Frye is a consistent tackier and dependable on
pass coverage.

Co-captain Mike McArdle was
an All-Conference first team selection last year. Sidelined the
last two games with a broken leg,
he still led the team in intercep
tions and recovered one fumble.
Safety Steve Rogers ranked second in pass interceptions on the
squad

with three.

Massachusetts has strength in
depth at many positions hut was
hard hit by graduation, in their
middle offensive line. One weakness may be the absence of an
experienced quarterback. However, if Tim Adarts turns in another stellar performance, it could
really hurt the Bulls. The Bulls
will have to Stop the running attack and rush the passer in order

to stay' on top.

With the talented band

ceivers

at,

of reMassachusetts, passing

is going to play an important part
in tonight’s grid test. The Bulls
will have to improve their exe-

cution in last week's Kent State
game. Buffalo fumbled the ball
four times and lost it twice. The
defense will be the key to a Blue
and White victory. If the Bulls’
offense can again show ball control, as it did last week, and the
defense again is tough, Buffalo
could walk away with another
victory under its belt.

Have a problem? Need help? Do you find it impossible to untangle the
University bureaucracy? Or understand why a particular regulation exists? Or have
a better way of handling a situation? In cooperation with the Office of Student
Affairs and Services, The Spectrum sponsors Action Line, a weekly reader service
column. Through Action Line, individual students can get answers to pussling
questions, find out where and why University decisions are made, and get action
when change is needed. Just dial 831-5000 for individual attention. The Office of
Student Affairs and Services will investigate all questions, all complaints, and answer
them individually. Aqtion Line will include questions and replies of generaI interest
which appear to be pertinent to the student body. The name of the individual originating the inquiry is kept confidential under all circumstances.

Q.: Is it possible to get a library card from the Buffalo and Erie
County Public Library, even though I am not officially, i.e., a legal,
resident of Buffalo?
A.: Yes. Students in attendance at the State University of Buffalo
can get a borrowers’ card at the main office of the Buffalo and Erie
County Public Library by furnishing proof of University enrollment,
i.e., current student I.D. card, or current bursar’s receipts. You must
also show proof of permanent address, i.e., driver’s license.
0.: Directions on the University parking permit sticker indicate
the decal must be placed only on the left side vent. This obstructs my
driving view, so last year I placed it on the left window and received parking tickets. What shall I do?
A.: Mr. Eugene Murray, chief of security, stated he recognizes
that on certain cars the vent, if the model has one, is not an ideal
spot for the decal. In such instances, the parking permit can be
placed on the left window, by the driver’s seat. The vent is preferred, however, because it is always visible. Mr. Murray will inform
his staff of this exception, but in the event the car is ticketed for
this offense, his office will adjust the ticket,
Q.: Is here any office on campus which aids incoming faculty
locate housing?
A.: Yes. The Off-Campus Housing Office, located in Goodyear
Hall, assists faculty as well as students in their search for housing
accommodations. Last year the Off-Campus Housing Office aided
more than 300 new faculty and staff members in finding housing.
Services range from providing listings of available accommodations
for rental to a list of the realty agencies and their University representatives, for those who are interested in purchasing a home. A file
of faculty homes that are for sale is also maintained by that office.
Q.; Upon returning to school this fall, SO upper division industrial engineering students found themselves displaced from their
meeting and study room. They were displaced by an individual mechanical engineering project in which only two people are involved.
No reason or explanation was given for our displacement. We want
to know why we were thrown out of our room.
A.: Dr. Kenneth R. Laughery, chairman of the Industrial Engineering Department, said that the space referred to was initially a
part of the Faculty Shop Facilities Unit. With required expansion
of the shop, the space was reclaimed. Dr. Laughery sympathizes with
the students’ need for such space and recalled he had explained the
reasons for the move to a spokesman of the industrial engineering
students. A departmental Undergraduate Affairs Committee, with
both student and faculty representation, was recently organized and
their first scheduled activity is to look into this space problem and
find an adequate meeting/study room.
Q.: When will the Engineering and Applied Sciences catalogue
be available?
A.: For a variety of reasons, some division catalogues have been
delayed. As of today, all catalogues are available from their respec
live departments except the Engineering and Applied Sciences catalogues and the Faculty of Health Sciences catalogues which are scheduled for delivery on Sept. 30, 1968.

Spectrum Staff Reporters

The Interfraternity Council of
ficially opened its fall 1968 rush

program with a convocation at
Norton Fountain Sept. 12.
In a letter to all Greeks, IFC
Rush Chairman Lee Zeltzer cited
r ush as the most essential part
of the fraternity program. He
urged that the Greeks once more
run a Mr. Formal Contest, Greek
Sing, Greek Weekend and continue with their charity drives
and support of University weekends.

s

Mr. Zeltzer stressed that unless
there is enthusiastic action on
the part of the Greeks toward the
re-establishment of these traditional Greek activities and increased participation in other aspects of University life, the Greek
system can only look forward to
dwindling membership and ultimate extinction.
Formal rushing will begin Monday and continue until Friday.
Oct. 5 and 6 will be open dates
with no rush functions allowed.
Bidding will take place Oct. 7 and
8 at the IFC Office, Norton Hall,
room 346. No student may submit his list of preferences unless
he is rush-registered. Anyone seriously interested in bidding and
not presently registered as a
rushec with the IFC must see Lee
Zeltzer or some other member
of the IFC immediately if he intends to bid.

Polity meeting to discuss
athletic fees referendum
of student concerns that are not the responsibility of other coordinators or com-

by Linda Laufer
Asst. Campus Editor

The student polity, an experiment in
student government, will be tested at 4
p.m. tomorrow at its first meeting with a
discussion of a referendum on reinstatement of mandatory athletic fees.
Student Association President Richard
Schwab has expressed a desire to set up
the referendum so the students can vote
“yes” for a mandatory fee, “yes” for a
voluntary fee, or “no” for any athletic
fee. He feels that there should be as
many alternatives as possible.
Mr. Schwab said: “If the students are
willing to saddle themselves with a fee
that can go up to $75 a year, they should
figure out what are the priorities.” He
questioned the importance of the athletic fee when compared to using funds

to develop FSA land, to help expand
UUAB and the Student Association, to enable them to bring more musicians, politicians, and other eminent figures to the
University, or to help the disadvantaged.
Another suggestion offered by Mr.
Schwab was perhaps the establishment
of a group to study this problem and make

Discussion topics

Future of athletics
program is at stake
Future uncertain

by Daniel Lasser
Mana£in£ Editor

Rumors, conflicting statements, charges
and counter-charges have pushed the future of intercollegiate athletics at the
State University of Buffalo into a morass
of uncertainty.
Only one point is certain: Within the
next two weeks, students will make a decision that could either save or destroy
a large part of the intercollegiate athletics program, and perhaps all of it.
The polity of the Student Association
will discuss possible reinstatement of mandatory athletic fees at a meeting tomorrow
at 4 p.m. in the Millard Fillmore Room,
Norton Hall.
A student referendum on the question
will be held Oct. 7 and 8.
The discussion and referendum are in
response to a petition submitted by University student Richard Baumgarten during the summer. The petition contained
258 signatures; 204 or 2% of the student
body must sign a petition to hold a re-

ferendum.
Deficit last year

Last year, the first year athletic fees

were voluntary, approximately $80,000 was
collected. According to James E. Peelle,
director of Physical Education, that
amount was less than one third of the
amount collected in the previous year.
Mr Peelle indicated that his budget operated at a deficit, and “we had to go out
and make up the difference. We got some
from outside, but we didn’t get it all.”
-

To make up the difference, money was
taken from the total state budget appropriation to the
University. Mr. Peelle said:
We were forced to use some of the $50

Without mandatory fees for athletics, it
is hard to say what will happen to the
program. The Buffalo Evening News
quoted Mr. Peelle as saying: “If, after the
referendum, we still have voluntary fees,
the department would have to find money
among the alumni, or the state would have
to allow us to spend some of the general
fund, which they have, or we’ll have to go
out of business.”
Alumni funds have always been a part
of the budget, and to increase them to
cover a loss from student fees would be
hard to do. This year’s original goal, $150,000, has been cut to $100,000, since funds
have not been coming in at the expected
rate. In addition, in the spring, the State
Bureau of the Budget notified SUNY officials that no money would be appropriated for intercollegiate athletics.
Richard (Doc) Urich, coach of the State
University of Buffalo football team, commented in the same newspaper: “I cheeked
with Albany when I saw the story (Sept. 17
issue of The Spectrum) and I can say that
it has nothing to do with the future of
intercollegiate athletics at U.B.”
Dr. Cappiello said that without mandatory fees, “some parts of the program
would have to be curtailed.” First indications from President Martin Meyerson’s
office and from Mr. Peelle were that Dr.
Cappiello is working on a complete report
on the future of intercollegiate athletics;
however, he denied this.
He did note that an audit of the athletics budget has been ordered since no
one has the accurate figures. He said:
“I’m just trying to put some figures together.”

The polity will determine what action
should be taken at its meeting tomorrow
and at the Oct. 7 and 8 athletic referendum. Wording of the referendum or a
statement of philosophy are possible topics
for discussion, according to Mr. Schwab.
Also on the agenda are coordinator reports and a discussion of the polity rules.
The polity rules were approved by the
Student Coordinating Council and are
subject to review by the polity.
file polity system was established last
spring when a new Student Association
constitution was approved by referendum.
This constitution provided for reorganization of the structure and procedures of
student government, allowing for more
student participation.
Previously, the government was run by
the Student Senate, which consisted of 20
senators who proposed and voted on all
legislation. Students who were not members of the Senate could not propose legislation directly—it had to be sponsored
by a senator.

Students play role
The abolition of student senators and
the initiation of the polity was undertaken
to give the students a chance to participate in decisions that affect them.
“All regularly enrolled day-time undergraduates shall be members of the Student
Polity and members of the Student Association,” according to the Constitution.
Controlling the polity is the Student Coordinating Council which consists of Mr.
Schwab, president; Penny Bergman, first
vice president; Tracey Cottone, second
vice president; Jairo Estrada, treasurer;
eight coordinators, an ex-officio voting
member, and a number of ex-officio nonvoting members.
The coordinators each are concerned
and responsible for a certain area.

The problems surrounding the intercollegiate athletic program have been

known for some time, but the urgency of
the situation was not realized by a majority of the student body. Sept. 17, The
Spectrum, in a page-one story, reported
that without state funds and mandatory
fees, the future looked “bleak.”
Reaction to the story was varied. Doc
Urich, talking to several football players
whose tuition depends upon the budget,
called the story “a rehash of nothing:’*

Student Rights Coordinator is responsible for establishing and maintaining
legal assistance and informs the polity on
issues relating to student rights and responsibilities.
There also are four standing committees: Finance Committee, Student Activi•

ties Committee, Elections Committee, and
the Academic Affairs Committee. The
Polity can also form committees of itself.

Acts as liaison
In addition,

a presidential assistant,
Jerry Brodt, has been appointed to act
as a liaison between the Polity and the
Student Coordinating Council. He will
not align himself with either group, and
says he will maintain an open mind regarding all issues. Getting the students
interested in participation is a vital part
of his job.
Mr. Brodt indicated that there will be a
polity post where students can obtain information, turn in petitions and air their
gripes. All legislation will be posted
there. Since he is concerned with making
the polity work, Mr. Brodt said: “The
polity should realize exactly what force
they have on this University.”
Polity meetings are called by the President at least once a month during the
academic year and he may call one whenever he deems it necessary after giving
the Polity 24 hours notice.
He also may call meetings within two
weeks after being directed to do so by the
Student Coordinating Council and within
two weeks, in compliance with a petition
signed by 10% of the Polity and submitted to him. The Student Coordinating
Council meets bi-monthly.

Quorum of 40
Forty members of the Polity constitutes
a quorum. The Constitution states four
ways in which this quorum can enact legislation:
“By a majority vote of the quorum.”
“By the Student Coordinating Council subject to the following conditions 1)
%
of the Student Coordinating Council
must approve; 2) For seven days immediately following action by the Council
copies of the legislation shall be publicly
posted.”
“If during the following seven days a
petition of objection is signed by 1% of
the Polity and submitted to the President,
the President must call a meeting of the
Polity within two weeks to re-examine the
questions. If no such petition is received
within the specified time, the legislation
shall go into effect. Normally all legislation shall go into effect seven school days
after notification of the legislation passed.”
This restructuring of the government
necessitates the participation of the entire student body for success. Hiss Cottone indicated that legislation can be
dictated from the top down or from the
bottom up and that there has to be a balance between the two extremes. She also

PUBLIC MEETING
The Graduate Student Ass'n
and

Legal aid for student

The present policy of the University

was explained by

Dr.

Richard A. Siggelkow, vice president for Student Affairs and a
member of the University Committee. Dr. Siggelkow said the
University will provide legal aid
for the student who has been arrested on charges stemming from
violations of drug laws, see that
he is given due process under law
and treat him as a rehabilitation
case, not as a disciplinary

case.

Dr. Smith feels that the report
is “straightforward.”
“We’ve tried to conduct as accurate a survey as we could. The
student response has been very
good and I think—we don’t have
any way of proving this— it has
been internally consistent in the
report that the students appeared
to be answering as honestly as
they could. I think this will come
out in the analysis of the report.”

Not confidential
Dr. Smith explained the policy
of the committee regarding the
release and publication of the report: “In the original discussions
about this, the question was whether this should be a confidential
report survey or not, and everybody on the committee immediately recognized that you
couldn’t have a report like this
and keep it confidential.
“So we faced up to what was
the obvious thing—that we would
have to release the results of the
report, if not in toto, at least in
essence.”
In an overall evaluation of the
survey, the committee chairman
believes “that the whole survey
is a very interesting one and is
probably an important one in establishing a baseline. I don’t
think,” he explained, “that it tells
us anything very much more
about the problem than we knew
beforehand.”
Commenting on the quality of
the report, Dr. Smith said: “I believe that the survey we’ve conducted is perhaps one of the best
surveys on any campus in the
sense of the response yield, the
accuracy of the data, the breadth
of the questions which we were
able to ask ih a relatively short
questionnaire.”

Removes 'second-guessing'
“But,” he continued, “it is like
instant in time. It doesn’t tell you
all you would like to know about
the background of the students.
He added that the report “does
remove a lot of second guessing
which everybody does ...”
Dr. Smith emphasized that the
report—which “deals only with
the students’ actual use of drugs
of abuse, i.e. pep pills, sleeping
pills and alcohol, but not with
their motivations or reactions.”—
will not make any value judgments on the relative dangers of
the various drugs studied. He indicated “there will be no value
judgments expressed in the report because it was made simply
to find out who uses what, and
when.”

Thursday night’s open meeting on the
question of arming the University police
revealed, like so many previous meetings
of its kind, the fundamental problem with
American universities. That is: They are
extensions, tools of a system geared toward making profit for a few, rather than
providing freedom and fulfillment for all.
The University exists to produce technicians who will ask no questions about
American corporations and government.
The University is organized to convince
the academic community that you can
influence City Hall—but you sure can’t
fight it.
The University, as we found out once
again—and the campus police perhaps discovered for the first time—is run from
the top down. The Governor appoints a
state Chancellor and Trustees, who appoint a university president, who appoints advisors. In these people, all power
affecting the University as a whole is con*

centrated. Various groups within the University can pressure this power structure,
but that is all.

Thursday’s meeting was a tragicomic

improve diplomatic and economic relations
between the two.
He chose the latter course.
Malaysia suspended diplomatic relations
with the Philippines and abrogated a
year-old anti-smuggling pact between the
two nations.
The dispute goes back more than 200
years when in 1710 the Sultan of Brunei
granted North Borneo Saba to the Sultan
of Sulu as a reward for military aid. In
1764, the Sultan ceded the territory to the
British East India Company.
Through a series of tangled events in
following years, the one thing clear is that
control never did return to the Sultans
of Sulu whose territory now lies within the
Philippines. In 1930, the United States recognized British sovereignty in North Borneo and the Philippine constitution specifically recognized the 1930 Anglo-American agreement.

the Security Police made his case without
any facts or figures, but generally was
able to convince the audience that the
campus police need better personal protection. A storm raged over how that
could best be afforded: Sidearms, more
men, even dogs were discussed.
Then the Emperor Administration and
Trustees were suddenly revealed in their
nudity. A puzzled freshman asked his
neighbor how the final decision was to
be made, and several leftists shouted the
question angrily in a series of speeches.
As it turned out, Dr. Connelly of the Faeulaty Senate Executive Committee appointed the Faculty Investigating Committee which itself appointed three students to sit on the committee. This committee will make recommendations back
to the executive committee, which will
make recommendations to Meyerson, who
will make the final decision.
This, of course, is nonsense. Meyerson
is the appointee of wealthy appointees who
were in turn appointed by a governor nominated by a bunch of party hacks and
corporation flunkies. That is several
steps removed from a democracy. What

is even more ludicrous is that students
and faculty pay the salary of these people
with their tuition and tax money. And
their Trustees, Regents, presidents and
Chancellor dictate to the University community how it will live.
The examples of this bureaucratic totalitarianism are too numerous to list.
My own memory of it goes back three
years to the decision regarding administration of the Selective Service Exam on
campus. The decision on this clearly
raises the vital question of University complicity in a genocidal war—the outcome
of which may have been literally a life
and death matter for students —and fur
ther, it was made by an elderly bureaucrat in the Testing Service.
Just last year the English Department
was nearly unanimous in its choice of a
department chairman, and that choice was
vetoed by the administration. It was in
general an ugly affair that no one wishes
to talk about, and one of the most abrupt
acts in the University’s history.
Students in the dormitories did not decide themselves what their rules are or
are not; that is decided for them. Similarly the University community did not decide what the recruitment policy on this
campus will be. In May, when students
were busy with exams, the Faculty Senate
alone set the policy. Feelings of graduate
students and undergraduates were ignored.
Thursday night the campus police began
to find out how it feels to be on the other
side of the fence. The cops are in a worse
spot than the students. Underpaid and
understaffed, they have to defend at personal risk property in which they have
no stake, and they have no representation
in determining their protection. They are
the ones who are ilterally up against the
wall when the trustees let their corporation buddies come on campus to recruit
fatuous or cynical students. If Dow and
the Army show up to recruit, it will be
the campus police who defend, at a lousy
salary, the two worst oppressors they ever
had. Is it any wonder that they are scared,
that they clamor for guns?
No, guns are not the issue. Rather, it is
a question of building a society where no
one needs to be a criminal, where no one
makes profit off napalm or anything else.

�Future

of athletics

■ft Continued from Page 1
Mr. Peelle complained that the story had
undermined the morale of the team, which
had just come off a 20-to-10 loss at the
hands of Iowa State.
Dr. Capiello indicated that the timing of
the story was “unfortunate,” as the University budget will be submitted to officiasl in Albany Oct. 1. He said that if the
referendum is defeated, Albany will turn
to the University, saying: If your students
won’t support you, why should we?

Mixed bag

Intercollegiate athletics is a mixed bag
of teams and clubs. The exact number is
uncertain. Mr. Peelle said there are a
total of 20, and when asked to name them,
he replied: “they’re all over.” Dr. A.
Westley Rowland, vice president for University Relations in charge of the drive
for alumni funds, said there are 22. Dr.
Cappiello submitted a list of 16.
It included: football, basketball, base
ball, track, cross-country, tennis, swim
ming, wrestling, golf, fencing, field hockey, ice hockey, volleyball, judo-karate,
crew and soccer.

Budget complicated

The budget covering these activities is

also complicated. Dr. Cappiello said that
any available figures are inaccurate, thus
the reason for conducting an audit. The
majority of funds go into football and
basketball, and since these involve many
players on grants, these would be the last
areas to be cut if mandatory fees were not

reinstated.

The exact number of athletes receiving
aid is also unknown, according to Dr. Cappiello.
Despite the uncertainties and conflict-

ing opinions, some facts are clear, and
they outline the entire situation:
The State Board of Trustees last year
decided that students could set their own
fees, and make them mandatory only by
their own choice.
If Mandatory fees are not re-established at the State University of Buffalo,
the budget for intercollegiate athletics
will be in serious trouble; consequently
cuts will have to be made somewhere.
The decision to reinstate mandatory
fees must be made Oct. 7 and 8, which
is before the audit of Athletic Department
books is completed.

Jim Peele has devoted his life to football. For him, a University would be incomplete without 40,000 spectators packed
into a lighted stadium, Jed by a squad of
cheerleaders and a 100-piece marching
band; bonfires; “salt and pepper” rallies;
and opponents the likes of Syracuse, Notre
Dame and Purdue.
That is his dream. In the 34 years he
has been with ,the University as Director
of
he has worked hard toward
that objective.

Jim Peele has built up football to the

point where he has Doc Urich, a protege
of Ara Parseghian, as his head coach, and
he has Syracuse University scheduled for
a home-and-away series in 1974-75.

Money may be withheld

A ruling by the Trustees guarantees
that students may determine where their
fees are going; this implies a review of
the entire budget for athletics by the Student Association, no matter if fees are
voluntary or mandatory: If students do
not approve of the athletics budget, they
may withhold their funds.

The football schedule, which is pre-

such teams as Syracuse University for

expansion plans would be ruined without
the appropriate funds.

gifts from businesses in the area, opened
to June, January and August. Two nameplates on his desk, also gifts: “Jim Peelle”
and “Jim Peele.”
“I’ve been here 34 years and look at this
goddamn dump here. This is terrible . . .
I’m ashamed to bring my daughter-in-law
in here after 34 years. This used to be a
bleacher compartment. We used to put
bleachers in here and then drag them out
and set them up for students.”

All about fees
Mr. Peelle’s problems revolve around
student athletic fees, and the lack of
them:
“If we had to operate independent of
fees, we’d have to eliminate everything
but football and basketball.”
“At one time I could get a bus; today
they say

‘where’s

your money?’

should cry about his fees, because a med
student is paying $800. If he was paying
the full cost of his tuition it would cost
him $6000.”
“We have the lousiest football field in
the world. We don’t even have turnstiles.”
“We’re building our schedule faster than
our facilities."
Mr. Peelle feels that students, through
demonstrations, are pointing their energies in the wrong direction. He says that
if students don’t care to give funds to
athletics, “this is all going to get back to
(them) if they’re not smart enough to take
advantage of it. I think the taxpayers are
getting fed up with some of the things
going on here.”
Explaining his financial problems, Mr.
Peelle pointed out that he has never received any money from the state. Mandatory fees is his big problem. If he doesn’t
get them, he expects that the state will
then fund him, despite a decision to the
contrary by the State Bureau of the
Budget.
He claims:
we know nothing
about the state. If what you say is true,
that they’re not going to provide any
money
and he (Doc Urich) assumes it’s
not going to happen, and I assume it’s not
going to happen
but if it does happen,
then we’re out of business.”
Mr. Peelle sees the University as an
“expanding membrane in an inexpandable
box,” and feels that taking on too many
new programs can only hurt existing ones:
“I don’t think it’s right to bring in 100
black students with averages of 60-65 and
keep away 100 qualified students. You’re
helping 100 underprivileged kids but at
the same time you’re (keeping away) 100
qualified students. You have to give
enough to take care of everything. We
want football, we want wrestling. We
should be expanding .our program, not
“

...

Now he sits back in his crowded office
and watches as his money is slowly taken
away from him. He blames it on the University’s switch from a privately endowed
institution to a state school:
“We had 38 (athletes) on scholarships
at one time, and then we entered the state
system. Then we lose this. There people
(outside contributors) are no longer going
to give us this. They’ll help you as a privately endowed school but they won’t help

But Jim Peelle isn’t going to give up
without a fight. He’s optimistic that if
thb student referendum is defeated, he’ll

all of our goddamn efforts fail right on
down the line and there is no money at

Editor

“Unless we have mandatory student athand
letic fees next semester, football
others would have to go.” Dr. A. Westley
Rowland, vice president for University Relations, explained the financial problems
involved in the University’s intercollegiate
athletics program.
He emphasized that the athletic program here consists of 22 sports, counting
the freshman sports as separate, in addition to intramurals. Without the mandatory fees, “we won’t be able to carry a
balanced program of athletics.”
He indicated that last year a total of
$120,000 was collected in athletic fees
$80,000 in the fall semester and $40,000
in the spring semester. Dr. Rowland estimated that this fall the total fees collected
would amount to $40,000.
“There is a tendency not to pay the voluntary fees, and yet the State support will
remain at the same level as last year,”
He referred to a letter dated Aug. 1 from
Dr. T. N. Hurd, State Director of the
Budget, to State University Chancellor
Samuel B. Gould regarding “fiscal policy
with respect to the State University athletic program.”
—

Dr. Gould concurred with these “guidelines concerning expenditures to be financed from the operating budget:
The state should pay the cost of required physical education programs;
The state should make its facilities
and services available for intramural programs at no cost except that whenever an
important special program or substantial
additional expense is required, it should
be financed from non-state funds, and
The state should continue to support
intercollegiate athletic programs at the
1967 expenditure level plus price increases and mandatory salary increments.
Other costs will be financed from nonstate sources, including student activity
fees.”
Dr. Rowland explained that the “state
hasn’t cut, but it hasn’t agreed to give
any more.”

Longer commitment
One of the main problems associated
with the student fee is that the question
of whether it will be mandatory is voted
on every year, he claimed. “We need students to commit themselves for a longer
time because we have to make long-range
commitments,”

Funds for the entire athletic program
sources, Dr. Rowland said;
Income from football, the State, “friends
of the University,” and student athletic
come from four
fees.

The income from football is the result
of ticket sales, concessions, ads in the
programs and other minor sources. The
State pays the salaries of the coaches and
provides for “certain supplies and expenses and the maintenance of the buildings.”

Fund-raising drive
Friends of the University provide some
income through donations. The University
of Buffalo Foundation’s fund-raising drive,

not incompatible

begun last September, has a current goal
of $100,000, reduced from its original
$150,000. A total of $80,000 has been col-

lected, Dr. Rowland indicated, and the
drive will continue through the football
season.

Student fees constitute the “biggest segment” of the money available for athletics.
When the fee was mandatory, $285,000
was collected. Since the total student fee
income was $120,000 last year, there was
a $165,000 deficit last year, according to
Dr. Rowland.
Explaining where the money is spent,
he indicated that “student fees do not pay
for the grants-in-aid (football scholarships).” Funds from the “Boosters,” the
fund-raising campaign and the income
from the football games are spent in that
way.

Operation expenses
Student athletic fees “go toward operating the entire 22 sport athletic program.
They pay for all expenses relating to operating the sports, such as travel, meals,
equipment and officials.”
Dr. Rowland proposed the need for student

involvement in the athletic issue,

stating: “The possibility of a Universitywide committee on intercollegiate athletics is currently being investigated. This
committee would consist of faculty, students and some appointees of the president. The president is very eager to develop this.”
Emphasizing the compatibility of ath-

letics with education, Dr. Rowland claimed
that “every major university has a strong
intercollegiate, intramural and recreational program. A good program in intercollegiate athletics is not incompatible with
good academies,” he concluded.

“Graduate Students and the Draft” will
be discussed at an open meeting Thursday
sponsored by the Graduate Student Association and the Buffalo Draft Resistance
Union.

A public hearing Thursday
night of the Faculty Senate appointed ad hoc committee studying the question of issuing sidearms to campus security officers
revealed considerable hostility to
the idea.
Kenneth Joyce, of the Faculty
of Law and Jurisprudence, the
committee chairman, explained
that the state may appoint or provide for “peace officers” to preserve “law and order” on or near
University-owned grounds and

pines.

A native of Banan, Batangus,
Philippines, Miss Panopio is at
present a resident of Manila. She
holds the position of vice head of
the Department of Sociology at
the University of the East, where
she has been assistant professor
of sociology and anthropology

After Mr. Joyce stated that he

Mr. John A. Basile, a spokesman for the campus police, de-

Main St. campus. He asserted that
there have been “numerous
break-ins” on this property, and
that some of the men have been
“assaulted and threatened on
routine patrols.” He told of a
security guard recently asaulted
with a tire iron while reporting
a break-in.

Alternatives suggested
Several faculty and student
members of the audience expressed skepticism of the need for
arms and suggested alternatives
such as sending men out in pairs
and using dogs on patrols.

John Marciano oi the Graduate Student
Association emphasizes a point.

that the use of dogs on patrol
was not a good alternative to
guns. “You can’t send out a dog
with a.man unless he’s been pro-

perly trained. The officer recently
assaulted was new and had no
such training. When we have to
send out new men like this, dogs
are useless.”

The request to use arms in a
stake-out came under fire for the
alleged ambiguous nature of its
wording. Members of the audience expressed fear that it
could be interpreted to allow
campus police to use firearms for
such purposes as putting down
student demonstrators.

'Student power"
The subject of the meeting
spilled over into the area of ‘student power’ when some of those
present questioned the extent of
student-faculty participation in
making the decision.
Said one student: “Meyerson
isn’t going to, allow guns on this
campus. The purpose of this
meeting is to make us think we
have a voice in running this University. Air of us here are being

used!”

Another student suggested that
all elements of the University
community meet with the. policemen and demand alternative solutions that would not require

arming campus police.

The Educational Planning and
Policy Committee of the Faculty
Senate will propose to the Faculty
Senate at its first fall meeting a
program of basic changes in the
structure of the University’s cur-

riculum.
The proposals include:
a conversion of University
College to a four-co.urse; 16-credit
undergraduate load,
expansion of the grading
•

•

system to include the student options of written teacher evaluation and pass-fail grading, and
a drastic reduction in the
Basic and Distribution requirements for a baccalaureate degree.
The new program, the product
of ten months’ research, is designed to foster flexibility and
quality in the University College
curriculum and to overcome the
congestion of required courses by
permitting students to diversify
and specialize earlier in their Uni•

versity careers.

Before final action by the Faculty Senate on these proposals,
faculty-student forums will be
held for discussion and evaluation.

It results in too rigid an educational experience requiring excess
time spent in structured class-

room

situations.

“The second major motivation
for the change is a concern to
provide students with an opportunity to obtain a greater intensity of study in more concentrated areas.” Secondary considerations were the overloading of
students in a five-course system
and the overcrowding of basic required courses.

The concept of the Basic and
Distribution requirements has
come under heavy attack. Some
main criticisms outlined by Marsha Puro, University College, in a
report to the Curriculum Committee are:

The required courses are
taught iii huge lectures and
graded by objective tests, thereby discouraging creativity.
The B/D courses are in
many cases inadequate even as
introductions to their own disciplines.
Requiring one year of a language is an absurdity.
•

•

•

Four-course proposal
The cornerstone of the new program is the proposed four-course

load for all undergraduates. The
system was first investigated by a
four-man committee appointed by
Dr. Claude Welch, Dean of the
University College, in February.
The committee reported in
March, strongly advocating the
four-course system combined With
a reduction or elimination of the
Basic and Distribution requirements. The committee’s report
said: “There was a general feeling . . . that the five-course system contributes to fragmentation
of students’ academic programs.

Humanities, Science and Technol
ogy, and Social Sciences.

Grading system overhauled
Another major facet of the
forthcoming proposals is an overhaul of the grading system. Re-

search in this area was done
early in 1968 by President Meyerson’s Ad Hoc Committee on Ranking and Grading, led by Dr. Alan
Andreasen. The committee reported in February 1968, advocating the adoption of a grading
system comprised of three alternatives: standard letter grades,
written evaluations and pass-orfail grades.
The option used would vary according to the particular requirements of the course in question.
Large group courses, with objective grading, would employ letter grades. Smaller courses and
more advanced seminars could
employ either the written or passfail evaluation. In many cases the
student could choose his own option. A system was developed for
translating the results of the
grading innovations back to
standard grades should the need
arise.
The Educational Planning and
Policy Committee is expected to
incorporate both of these important reports into its recommendations.

100 positions to be filled
by Gerald Cantor
Spectrum

Stalf

Reporter

More than 100 positions are to be filled in the forth-

coming elections of the Inter-Residence Council. The IRC,

governing body of on-campus residents, is made up of an
Executive Committee consisting of a president, vice president, secretary and treasurer.
These positions were filled
last spring.
This is the coordinating body
of the entire system. Overall policies and events of the resident
students are formulated and affected at this level. Even the
smaller dorms, with 50 or fewer
students, will have at least one
representative. The Executive
Committee, in formulating and affecting policy, gathers fact and
opinion from them.
IRC senators are resident students elected each fall on the basis of one representative per 150
students in their respective dormitory. Even the smaller dorms
with 50 or fewer students have at
least one representative. Existing
prospective policies are discussed
at this level and subsequently reported to the Executive Council.
These seats are vacant and are to
be filled this fall as every fall.
There will be a meeting for all
candidates at 8 p.m. tonight in
the Tower Private Dining Room
to discuss election rules for campaigning. Actual campaigning will
begin tomorrow. Elections for
these offices will be held Monday
between the hours of 10 a.m. and
7 p.m. at Tower, Goodyear and
Clement lobbies, and Allenhurst
bus lounge.

Independent policies
Each hall has one Hall Council,
made up of an Executive Committee-President, Vice President,
Secretary, and Treasurer—and
Floor Representatives (two per
floor). This is each Hall’s own
government and they form their
own independent policies. The
IRC forms inter-hall policies.
Seats on the Hall Councils are
also available and candidates for
these offices are to meet for
rules, etc. tonight also in the
Tower Private Dining Room.
The major difference between
the Hall Council and the IRC is
in the focus of the group. Whereas Inter-Residence Council is concerned with all residents, the hall

council

is concerned primarily
with its own hall. Much of the
programming of activities is accomplished by the hall council.
To provide for this programming,
the hall council receives a budget each semester from the IRC.
The Inter-Residence Judiciary
(IRJ) is composed of a higher

court (five judges appointed by

the Executive Committee of the
IRC) and a number of lower
courts (members appointed by the
IRC Executive Committee). The
size, jurisdiction, and number of
lower courts is determined by the
higher court.

Appointment to the upper court
takes place during the spring semester, while lower courts are appointed in the beginning of the
fall. Lower courts are usually established in each hall or on an
area-wide basis. They serve, in
most cases, as the starting point
for the judicial process. Appeal
from lower court decisions is to
the higher court of IRC.

Original jurisdiction

The courts have the authority
to recommend expulsion or suspension from University housing,
to put a student on residence probation {the terms of which are established by the court), and to impose other penalties as it sees
fit in keeping with its constitution. The upper court has original
jurisdiction in all matters of conflict between residence organizations, in interpreting the IRC constitution, and in violations of IRC
rulings. Appeals from upper court
decisions are taken to the Student
Judiciary of the Student Association.

duct of fellow students. The IRJ
decisions can be appealed to the
Student Judiciary (a completely
independent system). There has
never to this date been an appeal
to the Student Judiciary.

Social interaction
This fall, there will be seats
available for 17 judges. Applications are now available for these
positions at the IRC office in
Tower Hall.
A number of Information Officers are also appointed to give
students assistance in learning

procedures,
establishing complaints and answering questions
about the judiciary. There are two
spaces available

here; three are
already filled. Candidates for all
areas of the IRJ are interviewed
and chosen by the Executive
Board of the IRC.
Sub Comimttees are also set up
through the IRC for various activities and research. There is a
voluntary $6.50 fee for resident
students entitling them to all activities of the IRC.
Mr. Gamba sees the main order of business for the 1968-1969
year to be more social interactions between resident students.
Concrete examples may appear
in future dorm libraries and record rooms (IRC is now a member of the NSA Record Club). Mr.
Gamba concluded: “Students in
the halls govern their lives pretty
much by themselves.”

Most of the IRJ cases are

The meeting will aquaint interested students and faculty with
the proposed program and will
air suggestions on the ultimate
form of the proposal. The program will contain no prescribed
set of courses for undergraduates.
Each student will work with an
advisor from the department to
select a program tailored to his
individual needs. Students who
enroll in the program will receive
a background in liberal arts and
science with concentration in
computer science. Upon graduation they will receive a BS degree
in an unspecified major field.

In its first year, the program
will accept ten or fewer students
because of the shortage of available faculty members. It is
hoped however, that in the second year 20 students will be accommodated. Whether or not the
program will be able to be implemented next year depends
upon the interest shown by the
students and administration.

�"A computer has no mind of its own. Its
‘brainpower’ comes from the people who
create the programs,” says Rod Campany
Rod earned a B.S. in Math in 1966. Today,
he’s an IBM Systems Programmer working on
a portion of Operating System/360, a
hierarchy of programs that allows a computer
to schedule and control most of its own
operations.

A mixture of science and art
“Programming” means writing the instructions that enable a computer to do its job.
Says Rod, “It's a mixture of science and art.
You’re a scientist in the sense that you have to
analyze problems in a completely logical way.

“But you don’t necessarily huntfor an ultimate right answer. There can be as many
solutions to a programming problem as
there are programmers. That’s where the art
comes in. Any given program may work, but
how well it works depends entirely on the
ingenuity of the programmer."

Programmers hold a key position in the
country’s fastest growing major industryinformation processing. Business Week reports thatthe computer market is expanding
about 20 percent a year.

that at pre-registration last year

Too bad for the individual

One senior girl, a sociology
major, now had a conflict between two courses, both of which
she needed to graduate and both
given at the same time. Seeking
help, she met with the consoling
advice :‘Tm sorry, but we can’t

be concerned with individual
problems here. We’re making this
into a better University. You have
to consider the whole, and think
how much the school has given
you in return.” Sure. This school
has given me ulcers, grey hair, a
nervous breakdown and now a
late graduation. Thanks school.
Neither are the poor student’s
problems over once he survives
pre-registration and crawls out of
drop and add day. Less than a
week ago, a student picked up a
class card for English 413, Contemporary Cinema. When she reported to the class, however, the
professor looked at her admissions card and said flatly, “This
isn’t valid. I don’t want another
student in my class. If you didn’t
register last year, you’re not registered now.” This left her in a
rather awkward position—change

place to go for help. This is the
Office of Student Affairs and
Services on the second floor of
Harriman Library, “a first-aid
station on campus, a sort of ombudsman without a portfolio,” as
Associate Director Ron Stein calls
it. Students stream in daily in
search of a shoulder to cry on.
Not all of their problems are academic, but they all are frustrating. This is the office that The
Spectrum deals with in its Action
Line service as an aid to students
who “find it impossible to untangle the University bureaucracy,” “Untangle” is putting it
mildly. In most cases it takes a
sledge hammer.

But before freshmen and other
sensitive souls buckle under the
terrors of future registration festivities, here are some suggestions
gleaned from five semesters of
hassling with Admissions and Records people, jamming my foot
into advisors’ doors for an audience, and other assorted experiences:

Some suggestions
Never put too much faith in
the catalogues. Their guidance
has led many a student down the
primrose path. If you are unsure
of something, don’t go by the
catalogue alone. Check it out with
the department or some other
source, presumably up to date on
the latest revisions.
When submitting registration
cards, check and double check
section and course numbers. People have gotten into the strangest
courses by making an error in
one.

If it becomes your misfortune
to attend drop and add day, don’t
despair totally if all the courses
you need appear to be closed.
Occasionally, a class card for a
closed section can be obtained by
turning in an Academy Award
performance to the department

head. If that fails, stick around

In the course of your college

Mankind has been perplexed by unidentified flying objects in the skies since the
time of the ancient prophets. What these
UFOs are, where they come from, and
why they are there, can only be speculated
upon by man. There do exist, however,
many people who believe that these vehicles and their occupants, if any, are
from another planetary system that is far
ahead of man and his technological ad-

One person who has a somewhat active
interest in the investigation of UFO sightings is James Sipprell, A local elitist in
the group of concerned citizens, Mr. Sipprell is a resident of Tonawanda, New
York, and is a highly active member of
the National Investigations Committee on
Aerial Phenomenon (NICAP).
Other local citizens on NICAP Subcommittee Three are James Reed; Ernst Both,
Director of Astronomy at the Buffalo Museum of Science; Robert Manning; D. Ferietto and Jeffrey Gow, a graduate student
in the Psychology department. This subcommittee was formed in January, 1966.

Investigating groups

NICAP is a • non-profit organization
which is composed of members from every

UFO’s

P&lt;9* T^n

are

among the most perplexing phenomena of our

branch of science and engineering, plus
many from the fields of education, TO enforcement, business and the military.
The National Investigations Committee
on Aerial Phenomenon was formed in
1956 by Richard Hall and Major Donald
Keyhoe. The headquarters for NICAP is
located at 1536 Connecticut Ave., Washington, D.C. NICAP is not a “cultist” organization like some which claim contacts
with beings from other worlds.
Of course NICAP is not the only organization in the U.S. and the world which
is concerned with the investigative ap :
proach to the UFO mystery, but it is the
only full-time organization which is engaged in UFO investigation.
The elder-statesman of UFO investigative groups in the U.S. is an organisation
known as APRO (Aerial Phenomenon Research Organization). APRO was

firmed

in 1952 and has its headquarters^^Tuscon, Ariz. It is headed by
J.
Lorenzen and Coral E. Lorenzen,) both
authors of numerous publications! concerning UFOs. APRO takes a coniervative look at the UFO and feels that i\ the
facts indicate that this phenomenon!is of
an interplanetary nature.
Another American organization i
which, although somewhat less com erva

time.

The SptcruuM

�live than APRO, does prove that there are
many more people concerned about this
mystery than is commonly believed. This
group is known as SAUCERS (Saucer and
Unexplained Celestial Events Research Society). SAUCERS is located in Fort Lee,
N.J., and New York City. It was established back in 1954 and claims to have a
membership of close to 7000. SAUCERS’
members believe that because of the overwhelming amount of evidence presented,
the UFO is real .and probably comes from
the planet Mars.

Some bad publicity

Besides the groups mentioned above,
there are other groups who claim to have
had some special contact with aliens from
other galaxies and profit by their experiences in forming conventions and societies that flourish on the sale of outer
space memorabilia. It is these groups and
the people who run them that have made
the investigation and consideration of
UFOs a frequent subject of ridicule, and
its devotees candidates for scorn.
The UFO mystery is a preplexing one,
full of arguments pro and con. But the
very fact that it is argued shows that many
people consider it a possibility that man
is not alone in this vast universe; that he
is being examined or surveyed by some
race of intelligent beings with enough
technological development to invent vastly
superior modes of vehicular travel through
the cosmic voids.

Even the prophets saw them
The actual beginnings of the UFO mystery go back to the Bible. If one reads the
Bible carefully, he will come upon several
instances in which a UFO sighting is depicted in extraordinary detail. )Some
people believe that the sightings reported
in the Bible should not be considered because of their antiquity and ambiguity of
defining terms. I believe that the older
the report, the more reliable the information, for in ancient times they did not
know what such things as airplanes,
swamp gas, or electricity were—these
being the main explanations of modern
UFO sightings. This lack of technological
understanding tends to lend more credence to these reports.
Two such sightings occur in the King
James version of the Bible. According to
the Bible, sometime in 593 B.C. the
prophet Ezekiel described a machine
which came down from the sky and landed
near the Chebar River in Chaldea (now a
region of Iraq).

UFOs according to Ezekiel
Ezekiel described the strange incident

as follows: “And I looked, and, behold, a
whirlwind came out of the north, a great

cloud, and a fire unfolding itself, and a

midst thereof as the color of amber, out

“Also out of the midst thereof came
the likenes of four living creatures . . .
And everyone had four faces, and everyone had four wings. And their feet were
straight feet; and the sole of their feet
was like the sole of a calf’s foot: and they
sparkled like the color of burnished brass.
And they had the hands of man under
their wings on their four sides; and they
four had their faces and their wings . .
As for the likeness of their faces, they four
had the face of a man, and the face of a
lion, on the right side; and they four had
the face of an ox on the left side; they
four also had the face of an eagle.”
Ezekiel then went on to describe the
ship and its actions. He was then taken
on board the ship and transported to the
Tel Abid Mountains. There he remained
mute for seven days . . .

Jacques Vallee said about this incident:

Not until the 19th century was another
wave of UFO sightings reported. One of
the most spectacular sightings of this
time came from the United States, On
April 21, 1897, a wealthy farmer, Alexander Hamilton of LeRoy, Kansas, saw
what he described as a “demon ship”
which carried Off one of his cattle.
Hamilton described the incident as follows: “It consisted of a great cigar-shaped

“Every part of the ship which wasn’t
transparent was a dark reddish color.
We stood as if paralyzed and were finally
distracted when they turned a light on
us. All of a sudden after seeing us they
turned on some unknown power and a
huge turbine wheel began to spin slowly
below the craft which rose in the air with
a buzzing noise. When it was 300 feet
above us it seemed to pause and hover
above a two-year old heifer which was
firmly tied to a fence. When we went to
the heifer we found around its neck a
red rope, and all attempts made to remove
the rope were fruitless and when the
craft began to. rise, heifer and all moved
off into the northwest. Later we found
the hide, legs, and head of the cow which
was positively identified as my own because of a brand mark. The hide was
found four miles away.”

Since 1947 there have been a total of
11,000 UFOs sighted in the skies over the
earth. Of these, 10,344 have explanations
and 659 remain unidentified The 10,344
that have been explained were attributed
to such things as astronomical phenomena, aircraft, balloons, satellites, natural
phenomena, etc.
1958 was a very good year
Two years which stand out in UFO sightings are 1952 and 1957. In 1952 a total of
1,501 UFOs were sighted and of these
1,198 were explained and 303 were left
unexplained. In 1957 a total of 1,006
UFOs were reported and of these 992
were identified and 14 were not.
Historically UFOs became a national
concern on June 24, 1947. It was on this
day that an experienced pilot and representative of a fire-control equipment
firm in Boise, Idaho saw the first of the
“modern” flying saucers.
Kenneth Arnold was flying his plane
in the area around Mt, Ranier, Washington. He was at an altitude of about 14,000 feet and visibility was unlimited.
After awhile he noticed a bright flash
and when he looked to his left he saw
a chain of peculiar looking objects flying
in the direction of Mt. Ranier at an altitude of 9500 feet. Taking note of the

people of his community sign an affidavit

the local area
James Sipprell, mentioned before, is a

local citizen who has become the Regional Coordinator for NICAP. He has
had a great deal of experience and dealings with members of the scientific community who are of the opinion that UFOs
are real and do exist. Whether they are
from outer space or not, he could not say.
It is still unknown. Hopes which had
been raised at the formation of the Condon Commission (a group that was given

a large sum of money to investigate UFOs),
that an answer to this question might be
found, seem to have dimmed as a result
of the serious inter-group fighting among

the scientists.

Are they holding back the facts?
One, of the more recent events in the

field of UFO investigation was the First
Annual UFO Symposium held in Chippewa, Ontario. It was here that Mr. Sipprell and 40 highly respected members of
the scientific community met and had informal discussions on the subject of
UFOs.
The most important thing to come

out

of this Symposium was the fact that for
the first time the press and other medias
were allowed to see 13 reports from Project Bluebook and Project Grudge, a secret research group.
In a closing statement Mr. Sipprell said
that it was his personal opinion that there
is another secret organization somewhat
like the CIA, which has a strong fyiancial
backing and is going about trying to supdisguised as NICAP officials and
Air Force personnel.
In conclusion, I say that with the increase in the serious coverage of the
mixed medias concerning the UFO, it
will come to pass that within the next
five or six years there is going to be a
major breakthrough in UFO research.
We just might come up with some very
concrete proof of their existence.

An internal dispute there certainly has been, but as the details
have been revealed, few things
about the fight were ever what
they seemed. Unfolding is the
most bizerre tale to emerge from
New York City’s underground
since a super-star plugged Andy
Warhol earlier this year.

is attempting to serve.

SDS plot?

Midnight raid

Marshall Bloom, one of the LNS
founders and the leader of the
Massachusetts faction, claims his
original purposes in the service
had been systematically subverted
over the summer by persons infiltrating the staff for the purpose of using LNS for their own
political ends. While his public
statements have been guarded as
to the specific line these new
people were espousing, he has

spared joined other sympathizers,
including one rock band complete
with instruments, piled into three
cars and a truck and headed
north. When they arrived on the
farm (it was then about midnight) they found themselves numerically superior, so they took
charge.

charged in numerous private conversations that the organization
was being challenged by a takeover plot directed by high-level
members of Students for a Democratic Society,

For others in the organization,
however, the source of the difficulties was Mr. Bloom himself
and the type of extreme authoritarian control they claim he attempted to exert over the operation. This group, represented by
the people now connected with
the New York office, said what
was needed was greater participation by all the staff in the organization’s direction. This group,
furthermore, rejects the suggestion of a plot, saying no more
than four of the 18 full-time staffers were members of SDS.
These tensions came to a head
in mid-July in two all-night meetings which climaxed in the fulltime staff’s voting almost 3-to-l
in favor of enlarging LNS’s fiveman governing board to include
every full-time staff member. To
the majority’s surprise the board
voted their approval of the measure, expressing their intention to
incorporate the organization along
these lines.

Secret incorporation
Meanwhile, however, Mr. Bloom
and two other of the original di-

rectors began moving secretly to
incorporate the organization, placing only themselves as directors.
An adjunct to this plan was the

But that was all they were able
to do. The equipment had been
moved elsewhere. A check for
$6000 was signed over, but the
bank later refused to allow either
.faction access to the money. Some
important documents were uncovered, but they are useless paper
until there is a legal settlement
about whose claim on the property is to be honored.
With dawn breaking the New
York people drove back home and
the Massachusetts people hurried
to the police. It was generally believed at first that the kidnapping
charges were only a ploy, but
Sept. 6 when Franklin County
Judge Samuel Blassberg refused
to allow them to be dropped,
events took a sudden change of
character.
The big winner in the whole
affair appears to be Massachusetts’ Franklin County which now
appears set to collect $1300 in
fines. Meanwhile lawyers are attempting to resolve the questions
of money and property. Massachusetts-LNS retains the $4000
printing press as well as $5000
cash used for the down payment
on the $25,000 farm.

Embezzlement?
Lawyers for the New York people claim a strong case could be
made charging improper movement of corporate assets across a

state line and embezzlement of

funds. The New York people have
refused on practical as well as
moral grounds to begin the suit.

Meanwhile LNS subs Tibers continue to receive two LNS packets
each week—one postmarked New
York and the other Montague.
And ultimately, it will be the
subscribers who will really determine which address is the real

�Our Gang’s harmonics rock
with Paxton’s topical tidbits
by

Jim Brennan

Spectrum

Sta/I Reporter

Bopping Bach like harmony
with a variety of stylish approaches, Spanky and Our Gang
frolicked and skipped to a harmonic high Saturday evening at
Bennett High School audtiorium.,
The Gang opened the second
half of a highly entertaining evening with a ra-dah-dah rendition
-

of “Coney Island Washboard.”
The sudsy strands of this jugband tune set the scene for a bub-

bling concert.

Tone shifted momentarily to a
serious vain as Spanky introduced
the theme of Mayor John Lindsay’s anti-apathy campaign,

Above: Spanky
Right:

“Give

A Damn.”
This song’s poignant message
effectively describes degradation
of ghetto living and suggests,
“then you would mind about your
fellow man.”
Spunky Spanky’s singing style
leaves the impression that with
every song she’s pumping each
individual note from her diaphragm. This chunky nugget
melds herself into each golden
goody, blending a powerful projective voice with a sensitive rapport for lyrical content.
She belts out a song and feels
it. Spanky doing “Buddy Can You
Spare Me A Dime” claws you
from your seat and leaves you
enervated of emotion. Her torch
singer delivery, bathed in a red
spotlight, leaves a vivid depression on the listener’s mind.

Baker's banjo

Variety of presentation being
the Gang’s aim, they spiced up
the evening with a little highclass blue-grass picking. On fivestring banjo, doing a flashy tune
called “Flint Hill Special,” Gang
genius Lefty Baker dee-lighted

the folks with his handi-work.
A unique feature of this
number was the use of drums—percussion instruments like drums
usually are not used in bluegrass
tunes. The added sound gave a
big band” effect to the country
western twang.
Along with being a fancy banjo
picker, Lefty Baker also
has a
dandy bass voice. His deep southern draw drips into his
cowboy
singing like butter on a hot corn
cob. With a pitifully sad
tone,
Lefty sang a love song of his own
creation called “Three Ways
From Tomorrow.” Two other cowboys in the Gang are Nigel Pickering, alias Black Bart, and
John
Seller, alias “The Chief.” Nigel

evils of pool in the Gang’s version of “Trouble" from the musical comedy “Music Man.”
“Chief” Seiter js the Gang’s

banging percussionist, providing
a good backbeat as his sticks hit
solidly on each number.
One song the Gang no-noed on
was their rock version of Leon-

ard Cohen’s “Suzanne.” The hardrock sound did an injustice to the
tender folk song. It should be
done softly, amidst the silence of
the harbor setting, not the pounding of a shipyard.

Harmonic echo

The Gang’s harmony and haunting sub-melodies are especially
highlighted in “Like To Get To

Know You.” Spanky and her boys
the song’s refarin back
and forth, creating a harmonic
echoing effect.
Closing out with a series of
pop successes, the group did Lazy
Day, Sunday Morning and Sunday
Will Never Be the Same. The instrumentation and singing were
as good as their recordings. Possibly one too many Sundays.
On a standing ovation encore,
the Gang did an excellent interpretation of Gordon Lightfoot’s
“Early Morning Rain.”
repeated

Paxton's goodies

Tom Paxton began the evening’s festivities of the weekend
concert with a score of topical tidbits. Sporting a new mustachio,
Paxton opened his bag of goodies
with “Can’t Help But Wonder
Where I’m Bound.”

Spotlighted against a velvet
curtain, he performed “Bottle of
Wine,” which was a commercial
success for him on the pop market.
Satirizing the NBA, he gave his
point of view on the gun control
issue with a little ditty on the
wonderful hobby of collecting anti-tank guns.
“What A Friend We Have in
Hoover” sang the Oklahoma-born
performer, as he critiqued FBI
tactics and wiretapping. Inspired
by an elderly little old lady
in a
Sixth Ave., New York City
cafe,
he sang “Victoria Dines Alone.”
As she sat reading her newspaper, she digested a different
disaster in the course of events
with each item on the menu.
Concerning the rumor that 80%
of our troops in Vietnam are on
pot, Mr. Paxton sang of a
group
of GIs and Vietcong stoned on
Hanoi Gold from Ho’s Victory

Garden.
He closed with
My Mind.”

The Unitarian Church on Elmwood Ave. has been the home of
a variety of things recently; the
newest being a worthwhile “theater-in-the-square” adaptation of
Lorraine Hansberry’s play, “The
Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window.”
Considering that we are watching a new company of actors, the
evening is quite rewarding.
The major credits go to Alyce
Keefe as wife Iris, and Stanley
Kahn in the title role. Mr. Kahn,
who reminds one of a Carl Reiner
with hair, is excellent as the sarcastic and insecure philosopher.
Alyce Keefe is beautifully convincing in her expressive portrayal of the bitter yet tender

“Wally,” Sidney finally states,
“I realize I no longer can be

quite so repulsive and this key
line seems slightly out of place.
George Beck Jr. as the mulatto

This musical comedy is based on
the highly successful comic strip
“Peanuts,” created by Charles M,

�‘People Power meeting
discusses political action
9

by Pam Wigand

Spectrum Staff Reporter

A non-partisan conference on
"People Power” in Norton Hall
Saturday produced heated debate
among panelists and an unscheduled speech by a State University

of Buffalo student.
University’s
Dr, Bennis, the
newly-appointed vice president

for Academic Development and
panel chairman noted that “we
are committed to the idea of
change." How to bring it about
is a question of prime concern,
he added.
Paul Stephan and Joseph F.
Crangle, local party leaders, made
predictable statements. “I don’t
know any easy way for instant
political power,” commented Mr.
Stephan, director of public relations for the Erie County Republican Committee. “In order to be
effective you have to define your
goal and restrict your goal.”

Erie County Democratic Committee, carried this philosophy further by labeling perseverance the
most important quality in political effectiveness. “The world
can’t bd changed overnight,” he
said. He also noted that “individuals have been very effective” in
politics, especially at the local
level.

McCarthy's campaign
As examples on the local

which he observed: “A few individuals have carried the ball”
while most stayed silent. On the
national level, he noted that Sen-

ator McCarthy’s candidacy supported by many individuals
“changed the whole political
thinking of a major party."
Disagreeing with these statements were James Mobley of
BUILD—Build Unity, Independence, Liberty and Dignity, and
John Wiley from the Community
Action Organization. Speaking
for those outside the Establish-

Mr. Crangle, chairman of the

ment, Mr. Mobley predicted that
“things will be changed overnight. The only way a person can
be politically effective is to mass.
An individual means nothing
against the machine.”
Mr. Wiley elaborated, asking:
“Do we have ten years or 15
years? Can we afford to play
around with portable classrooms
when people are becoming disgusted with the democratic process?" He continued by noting
that there are 20,00(5 black people
in Buffalo. “We cannot just overlook them, they exist,” he implored.
He said that the black people
in Buffalo would love to partici-

better friend of the black people
than Senator Javits, and he’s
never carried the Fifth Ward.”
Mr. Mobley responded: “This is
our land; we were brought here
against our will; our women bore
your children; black people who
have been here 400 years aren’t
covered by the Constitution, but
foreigners are the minute they
step on American soil.” Party
leaders “should throw a woman
like Slominski or a man like Lewandowski out of the party,” he
urged.

Youth not represented
A question and answer period
following the panel discussion
was interrupted by what were
probably the most stimulating

comments of the afternooli. Jef-

frey Lynford, a student at the
Stale University of Buffalo and
active supporter of Senator McCarthy’s campaign during the
previous nine months, asked to
speak. He noted that panel members both in and out of the Establishment had expressed themselves, but young people had not
been represented.
Mr. Lynford saw three intangibles coming out of the political
conventions this summer: a renewed participation in the system, student action, and an
awareness by government representatives of views of the people.

Two goals
He pointed out two goals which

would

greatly extend political
participation and effectiveness of

the individual: establishment of
a primary in all states, so that
convention delegates would truly
represent the will of the people;
and lowering the voting age to
18, since young people are increasingly interested, active and
responsible in the political proces. He concluded by saying the
important question which should
be asked today is: “Does your
government respond to your
needs?"

A bitter exchange between the
panelists ensued as Mr. Stephan

commented: "Immediate action
isn’t necessary. You won't find a

Parallels black, Irish
Earlier, in the keynote address,
Rev. Robert S. Sweeny, pastor of
Buffalo’s St. Brigid’s Church,
paraded the black power movement with the course of action
Irish immigrants took to acquire

power.
He said that the Irish, like the
black man of today, “formed a
society within a society and began to control the polities of the
block, the precinct and the ward.”
The conference was sponsored
by the League of Women Voters,

OfficP of Urban Affairs and

Looney-tune look serious. It was
a total disaster from beginning to
end. Now, normally this would
have killed the group’s chances
of making it big anywhere at
anytime. But B.B.H.C. is not a
normal group. It definitely is one
of the major musical influences
of modern rock.
Cheap Thrills is great from
cover to actual record. This is
strange coming from this reviewer whose soul (sic) purpose had
been to literally tear this Ip
apart. But after listening and
experiencing this Ip, I can feel
nothing but sheer delight at the
news that we are going to have
the opportunity to hear and witness Big Brother and The Holding Company at the State Uni-

"Captivating and irritating"
One of the main attractions of
Cheap Thrills and B.B.H.C. is
that sensuous mass of hair and
womanhood known as Janis Joplin. This chick has got one of the
lustiest blues voices ever to hit

the R&amp;B scene. Her voice is at
once capivating and irritating.
She sings with such fury and violence it’s as if the listener were
going through some. kind of internal hell.
Others included in B.B.H.C. are
James Gurley, guitar; Peter Albin
wailin’ on bass and guitar; Dave
Getz on drums, and Sam Houston
Andrew III, also on guitar. Speaking of guitars—even if we weren’t
—this team of guitarists can really set down some beautiful blueslike riffs that cut through the
flesh and sew it up again. They
wail from the bottoms of their
bottomless souls.
Cheap Thrills consists of seven
songs that are blues from the
word, “Go!” They range from a
truly gutsy tune called “Piece
of My Heart” to a fantastic rendition of “Ball and Chain.” Others
include “Summertime” played
like you never heard it played
before, “Combination of 2” and
a wild tune entitled “Oh, Sweet
Mary.”—J. F.

In contrast to the Limeliters,
who sang mainly folksongs, Yarbrough does not like to be classified as a folksinger. “I sometimes sing with a folk flavor,” he

Shades of 196'

Bulls stop Kent rally
for season’s first win
by Rich Baumgarten
Asst.

Sports

Editor

The State University of Buffalo
football team stopped a desperation Kent State rally on the Buffalo 10-yard line, as the Bulls
hung on to win 21-13 before a record crowd of 16,488 in Kent,
Ohio, Saturday afternoon.
It was the fourth time in five
meetings that the Bulls have emerged victorious.
The win squared the Bulls season record at 1-1, while the loss
left the Flashes seeking their initial 1968 victory with an 0-2
■mark.

In typical Buffalo-Kent fashion,
the final outcome wasn’t decided
until the last play of the game.
Down by eight points with less
than a minute to go, the Flashes
of Kent State suddenly caught
fire and were driving towards
the Buffalo goal when safetyman
Dick Horn hauled down Kent’s
Harold Brown on the Buffalo tenyard stripe.
Time ran out before
Kent could get off another play,
and one more storybook ending
was in the record books.
Interestingly enough, the last
time Buffalo played in Kent two
years ago, the “Blue
and White”
managed to win in almost the

same circumstances, as Danny

line to pre-

to

scoop up the ball. He stepped
into the end zone for an easy
Buffalo touchdown. The first of
Bob Embow’s three conversions
made it 7 to 0, and it looked as
though the Bulls were on their
way.

Kent State comes back
But Kent State came back with
a few surprises of their own, revealing a sensational sophomore
running back named Don Nottingham. Considered one of Ohio’s
prize athletes, he is the heir-apparent to the Flashes graduated
All-American Don Fitzgerald.
Running over, around and
through the Buffalo defense, Nottingham capped a 34-yard Kent
drive with a 9-yard burst tying
the game at 7-apiece after the
first quarter.
The Bulls then took the ensuing kickoff and marched 88 yards
down the field for the go-ahead
touchdown. The t h i r t e e n-play
drive was climaxed by Joe Zelmanski’s four-yard plunge for the
score, making it 14 to 7 for Buffalo .
Not to be outdone, Kent showed
that it could move the ball as
well. With an enthusiastic crowd
roaring its approval, Flash quarterback Steve Trustdorf took to
the air. He connected on a nifty
cross-over pass to halfback, Dale
Bradley. He then came back with
a streak pattern to tight-end Ted
Chester good for 21 more yards
and a first down on the Buffalo
23 yard line. The Buffalo defense
then held, forcing Kent placekicker Larry Eppright to boot a
long 41-yard field goal, cutting
the Bulls’ margin to 14 to 10.
While the Kent fans were still
While the Kent fans were still
buzzing about Eppright’s extended 3-pointer, Buffalo fumbled
the ball and the Flashes recovered on the Buffalo 23-yard line.
Again the Bulls’ defense held on

dawns, and Bppright once more
split the uprights from 40 yards.
Suddenly the scoreboard read:
Buffalo 14, Kent 13.

Bull recovers pigskin

Then came what Kent Coach
Dave Puddington called the turning point of the game. In an attempt to take advantage of Kent’s
driving momentum, Puddington
ordered a Kent onside kick. It

backfired, as Buffalo’s John Weslowski recovered the pigskin on
the Kent 48 giving Buffalo excellent field position. On the next
play, Ken Rutkowski took the
handoff on a draw, eluded two
Kent tacklers at the line of scrimmage and scampered 48 yards for
the deciding touchdown. That
made it 21 to 13 Buffalo at halftime.

As it turned out, Rutkowski’s
spurt was the last score of the
game. In the second half, Buffalo’s defense took over and stopped Kent cold. Bulls’ defensive
halfback Joe Jacobs and safetyman Dick Horn were key figures
in Buffalo’s defensive stands. Jacobs’ plucked off an errant Kent
pass to break up one long drive,
while Horn supplied the heroics
on the game’s final play.
Understandably, Coach Doc
Urich was a happy, but tired man
after the game. “I'm proud of
this team. The boys did a real

good job—especially in the second half when we alternated and
rotated our men,” he commented.
Urich was then asked about the
play of the Buffalo defense, and
Doc broke into a broad grin. “We
won. I gotta be happy with the

defense.” Then Urich added,
“linebacker Jim Mosher played a
real good game.”
What really pleased Doc was
the condition of his athletes. The
Bulls hit shoulder to shoulder
with Kent State and came out on
top, despite the heat and the humidity. “Mentally and physically,
we were ready for the game,”
said Urich. “We out-hustled and
out-enduranced them.”
Over in the Kent dressing
room, the scene was a little quieter, Head Coach Dave Puddington,
a real gentleman and a coach
with class, was slowly sipping a
coke. Puddington had nothing but
praise for the Bulls. “They’re a
real good football team,” said the
Kent Head Coach. “I think they’re
going to have a good year.”
When informed that his quarterback Steve Trustdorf had broken three all-time Kent passing
marks, Puddington smiled and
said: “He’s coming along pretty
well for a junior, isn’t he.”
Asked if Buffalo did anything
which Kent hadn’t anticipated,
Puddington replied: “The end-ov-

er set-up did bother our defense.
We didn’t expect Buffalo to come
up with an unbalanced line with
both the split end and tight end
on the same side of the line."
The Bulls, physically tired but
ski-high in spirit, then boarded
their chartered busses for a rollicking trip home, Buffalo’s next
start will be against the University of Massachusetts on Friday
night in War Memorial Stadium,
kickoff at 8 p.m.
Extra Points; The Bulls got a
big break when three veteran
Kent Staters were unable to play
due to injuries.—Buffalo SplitEnd Dick Ashley on his first
catch of the day broke two Buffalo receiving records. Ashley
now holds the all-time Buffalo record for number of passes caught
—51. Dick also broke the mark
for receiving yardage. His 803
yards is a new school mark. Dr.
Edmund Gicewicz, now the team
physician whose records Ashley
broke was the first person to
congratulate Dick after the game.
—Nearly 150 school-spirited Buffalo students made the long trip
to Kent, and cheered the team
on.—A buffalo roast was held after the game by the Kent students. 3000 pounds of buffalo
meat was shipped in from South
Dakota—Courtesy of a Kent State

The program matches prospec-

the same fashion that Operation

Match pairs "ideal dates.” It will

be available to State University
of Buffalo students at no charge,
beginning this week,

Sponsored by the Madison Ave.
based Re-Con Corp., the program
includes employers from throughout the country. Steven Flax, project coordinator on this campus,
explained that most of the corporation personnel are college administrators or professors.
To become involved in the program, the student completes a

questionnaire including areas as

work preference, major field of
study, geographic preference, and
personal data..

Areas of employment
For example, the questionnaire
lists 30 possible areas of employfrom academic
ment ranging
teaching, administration and advertising, to public relations, real
estate, research, sales and writing.
Also listed are regions where
the student is interested in working, from New England and the
Pacific Coast states, to a foreign
,

country.

Under the area of “special
skills,” the student indicates
whether he has a working knowl-

edge of Arabic, Chinese, French,

or Swahili,

among

others.

The employer then completes
his questionnaire, stating needs,
expectations and qualifications.
The questionnaires are then run

through a compu er, matching employers and employees m o s t

suited for each other.
Mr. Flax said il is the employer’s responsibility to get in touch
with the prospective employee
who best matches his expectations
—according to the computer.

Enthusiastically endorsed
However, the student, once contacted, is under no obligation to
accept a job or to reply, he said.
Because the computer is constantly running, entering new employers as well as prospective employees, Mr, Flax added that there is
no limit to the number of times
someone may be contacted.
Project Re-Con, he added, was

enthusiastically endorsed by the
National Student Association at
this summer’s Congress, above all
other forms of job recruiting.

Questionnaires will be available

starting Monday until Oct. 18,
from 10 a m. to 3 p.m. in Norton
Hall. Volunteers are needed to
help in this operation. Anyone
interested in helping, or desiring
more information should contact
Steven Flax at 876-9338, or Ellen
Price, NSA coordinator, at the
Student Senate Office, room 205,
Norton Hall.

Petition asks extended
Food Service hours
A petition requesting an exten-

sion of food service hours on the
Ridge Lea campus was circulated
there last week. It was completed Friday with 437 signatures
and is expected to be mailed to
President Martin Meycrson.
The petitioners requested his
help in extending the food service closing hour on that campus
from the current 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.

According to these students, the
Ridge Lea Food Service manager
refuses to keep the cafeteria open
because a profit could not be
made during those hours. They

believe that this loss could be
distributed over the day’s earnings, Such a change would be a
great convenience to students of
Millard Fillmore College and the
office staff at the Ridge Lea campus as well as day students, they
claim.

College Press Service

This summer two
SAIGON
co-eds representing the executive
committee of the Saigon Student
Union (SSU) called a press conference at the Union’s headquarters to protest the “kidnapping” of Nghyen Truong Con, 23year old editor of the Sinh Vien,
the SSU’s official magazine. Con
had been picked up that day by
the police without a warrant
while he was on his way home
Miss Hao said: “Since 1954,
South Vietnam has voluntarily
joined the side of freedom, and
despite several successive goverments’ pledges to implement
democracy, the students have not
seen democracy anywhere.” She
tvarned that “by court-mar: ialing
Nguyen Truong Con, the government will collectively court-martial 25,000 students arid 5000 readers of the magazine as well,”
The next day, a field military
court sentenced Nguyen Truong
Con to five years at hard labor.
The verdict could not be appealed.
He was accused of “having disseminated false peace and procommunist prin'ed material harrnful to the anti-communist struggle of the Vietnamese people
and armed forces.”
—

List of repressions

The condemnation of Nguyen
Truong Con was out one case in
the long list of repressions by
Thieu-Ky military regime against
Vietnamese who fight for peace
and civil rights—Truong Dinh
Dzu, the runner up peace candidate in the 1967 presidential elections, was also condemned to five
years at hard labor July 26,
Suffering from arbitrary measures by their own government is
not new to Vietnamese students.

But in recent weeks, the arrests
of students have reached a regularity unmatched even by the
1963 crackdown on the Buddhists
and students by | the late President Ngo Dinh Diem. Two years
ago, during the Buddhist uprisings in the summer of 1966, many
especially those at the
students
University of Hue in Central Viet—

nam
were imprisioned. Quite
a few joined the National Liberation Front (NLF) just to surface
again in the Tet offensive.
The Tet offensive in early February, which brought the war into the heart of the cities where
most students live, the brutality
of the US. military operations
conducted to “save” Saigon and
Hue, have left a trail of shock
and despair for many who in the
past could afford to go to school
and forget that a few miles away,
in the rice fields, their countrymen were dying by the thousands.
—

Louder demands

The demands for peace which
have been the basis of the student movement grew louder. At
the end of May, Tran Van Huong,
previously respected for his honesty and known for his desire for
the end of the war, was named
prime minister. The presence in
his Cabinet of some liberal intellectuals such as Ton That Thien
—Minister of Information, former editor of the Vietnam Guard-

ian—and Au Ngoc Ho —Minister
of Economy—gave some hope to
the students and encouraged them
to step up their struggle. In June
the Saigon Student Union, representing 25,000 students—85% of
the College student population in
the country—made public a statement on the situation of the nation. The statement read:
“As the Tet offensive occurred,
most of the Vietnamese people
feel that the country is undertaking a historical change. After
many years of slaughter, the war
cannot be ended by the armed
forces. On the other hand, ammunitions have more and more
destroyed and exhausted the energy of the people and the nation.
Up to now, that kind of bankruptcy is still going on because of the
dominating ambition from the
outside, so the present situation
of the country is more and more
miserable. Understanding the danger of extinction and seeing the
slaughter of people, the destruction of the buildings, the Saigon
Students Union solemnly declares
before history, people and students:

“It is time for the war in Vietnam to be ended through the negotiations, so the people will not
be extinguished. Vietnam must
have peace, independence, freedom, so that everybody can have
a chance to begin the building of
the country.
“We ask for an essential peace
solution in the South and particularly demand the Tran Van
Huong government to carry on
his .prpmi.se as he assured the premiership-in Saigon.”

Students drafted

In the aftermath of the Tet offensive, the Saigon government
closed all schools and drafted the
students to form the “Students
Division for the protection of the
Capital.” The Saigon Student Union challenged the legality of the
government measure and the usefulness of the Division, The SSU
charged that the formation of the
Capital Division is unconstitutional, that it has led “to serious
corruptions and bad misunderstanding in the public opinion”
and asked the government to “use
the students to help the refugees,” to disband the Division,
and “to reopen the University.”
The Capital Division has the
duty “to guard atop buildings,
make observations and sound
alarm and can only open fire
when attacked by the enemy.”
Soon after
the Division was
formed, Phan Tiet, a 21-year old
student at the Faculty of Science,
was wounded while on duty at
the Ham Tu Quay in Cholon. This
incident aroused the students’
concern for the safety of their
friends. Faced with the students’
opposition, the government at
first made few concessions to gain
time for repressions: The Student
Division was not disbanded but
was “put on a less active footing
so that the students can devote
more time for their year-end examinations.” The University of

position to the mobilization decree signed by President Nguyen
Van Thieu June 19. This decree
called for the drafting of 269,000
men into the regular army this
year and for the compulsory participation of some 300,000 more
in the “people's self defense
-

units.” The draft involves in the
ory all men from 16 to 50. Those
who can afford to bribe the authorities can still stay out. Some
desperate young people have
tried to flee the country. ”The
Hong Kong port authorities discovered three Vietnamese hiding
aboard the SS Mandor Sept. I.
The men aged 18, 23 and 35, con
fessed they tried to avoid the
draft.
After the condemnation of Nguyen Truong Con, the students
were worried about the fate of
the chairman of the Saigon Student Union, Mr. Nguyen Dang
Trung. In July, Nguyen Dang
Trung was quoted in the press
as having said that “we students
are determined not to accept a
war when this war is burning out
the future of the people, when
this war is being pushed on
through foreign pressures." In
July, he was invited by the Association of U.S. Student College
Presidents and Editors to make a
lecture tour in the U.S. In Aug,,
summoned by the police, Nguyen
Dang Trung did not appear. He
was condemned to ten years at
hard labor in absentia.
One of Trung’s friends, Ho Huu
Nhat, a former member of the
Executive Board of the SSU, is
now directing in clandestinity the
Saigon Students Committee for
Peace, an organization affiliated
with the NLF. Several students
have been “kidnapped” or met
with mysterious death.

he had decided “to terminate

overseas students whose study

court and may be deprived of
citizens’ rights. Several students
studying in the U.S. who have
voiced their protest against the

Embassy in Washington, D.C. One
of them is Nguyen Thanh Trang,
a senior at the University of Maryland who worked as a barber to
pay for his education.

Cleaver to lecture
at Berkeley campus
United Press

International

The Board
LOS ANGELES
of Regents of the University of
California Friday rejected a demand by Gov. Ronald Reagan
that they ban Black Panther
leader Eldridge Cleaver from lecturing at the Berkeley campus
and voted to permit the militant
“minister of information” and
Peace and Freedom Party presidential candidate to appear one
lime in a classroom.
—

At a stormy open session at
UCLA, the regents turned down
Reagan’s emotional plea that the
people of California were aroused
at the prospect of Mr. Cleaver
instructing students at a university supported by their taxes.

■

The regents supporting the
Hitch proposal to let Mr. Cleaver
appear once made it plain they
opposed him as a qualified lecturer, but felt it was a dangerous
course to have the regents start
naming individuals who could not
appear as guest lecturers.

Little support

Gov. Reagan said bringing in
Mr. Cleaver “made as much sense
as it would have to invite the
late Tommy Manville as a marriage counsellor.” He warned that
approval of Mr. Cleaver’s appearance could lead to a legislative investigation of the University of

Gov. Reagan said that of the
first 4500 communications he had
received, only 13 supported the
appearance by Cleaver.

At a news conference after the
session, Gov. Reagan was asked
whether he considered the regents’ action a repudiation of him.
“Well if it was a repudiation
of me, it was a repudiation of
the people of California and of
the whole legislature of California,” he said.

pearance.

California “from top to bottom.”

'Hollow victory'
“If there was a

victory it was
pretty hollow one since the
small faculty group wanted him
ten times and they’re gelling him
once. They lost considerably, too,”
the governor added. Mr. Reagan
said he would have to consider
what further steps, if any, he
might yet take to prevent Mr.
Cleaver’s appearance.
The regents voted 10 to 8 for
a motion proposed by President
Charles Hitch, head of the nine
universities in the system, which
in effect would permit Cleaver to
make only one appearance.
It refused to pass 9 to 9, a motion backed by Gov. Reagan which
stated that Mr. Cleaver not be
permitted to participate, instruct
or teach any course on a campus
of the Univeristy of California.
Mr. Cleaver originally had been
appointed by a faculty committee
to deliver ten lectures over a
ten-week period at Berkeley.

One of Gov. Reagan's most vehement backers was Superintendent of Public Instruction Max
Rafferty. Republican candidate
for U.S. senator, who characterized the Peace and Freedom candidate as a “racist bigot” and said
if he was approved it would demonstrate the California educational system was in need of complete
reform.

'■/■

There were about 300 spectators in the UCLA auditorium and
they hissed and applauded in registering their opposition to Reagan and support of Cleaver’s ap-

Mr. Cleaver was in Los Angeles,
but he did not appear at the
campus.
Jesse Unruh, state assembly
speaker and top Democrat in California, was not present although
he is a member of the Board of
Regents. He had said previously
he was opposed to Mr. Cleaver’s
appearance.

Mr. Cleaver termed the decision “a slight victory, but not an
unequivocal one”, and added that
it was a limit which virtually destroyed the course. “It was a defeat for academic freedom, freedom of speech and the educational processes in California and
perjiaps the country,” he added.
“It’s just a reflection of how hypocritical and demogogic politicians can whip hysteria. But insofar as the action stopped short of
what Reagan was demanding, it
was a victory.”

Gov. Reagan said he was not
fearful of exposing the young
people of California to radical
persons or ideas, but that the
people of California had made it
obvious that they did not want
Cleaver on a campus.
“This is a drive toward total
chaos,” he said. “I ask you to
turn back now before it is too
late."
Robely Williams, chairman of
the Academic Council at Berkeley, warned that there would be
a “90% drop” in the enthusiasm
of the facutly if the regents overrode their traditional right to determine the courses taught at a
university.
Mr. Williams said he would resign as chairman of the biology
department at Berkeley if the proposal to ban Cleaver was passed.

Food Service, beer don’t mix

Who shall decide?

To the editor:
In reading The Spectrum article on the sale of
alcohol on campus I noted that the board granted

this ad hoc committee was formed as an information-and opinion-gathering group whose function is to make
recommendations to the Executive Committee of the Faculty Senate, which in turn shall study the question and
determine in what form a proposal shall be brought to the
floor of the Faculty Senate, which in turn shall make its
recommendation on the matter to the Faculty Senate . .
.

.

That is the pathway of University policy in-the-making,
as outlined at last week’s cops/guns hearing.
The meeting was highlighted by one arrival and two
departures. Two students had been carefully selected to
join the committee last week after some reasonable fellow
realized that students had a stake in the decision. At
Thursday’s meeting, however, the committee was asked
why no Afro-American student had been included in the
previous inclusion; whence followed several simultaneous “Me, too. They kept telling me,

shrugs of shoulders and an additional student member of

English professor Taylor Stoehr later asked if the new student members of the committee would have full voting
rights, and the committee gave its general consent; facing
a roomful of students, one wonders if it had any choice.

point of order

Near the end of the meetings—which consisted of the
campus police telling everyone how they were poorly
trained, poorly staffed, poorly paid, and poorly defended,
while the students and faculty offered new uniforms, sympathy, bribes, threats and even student security assistance
to keep guns out of the hands of the campus men-in-blue—several militant students walked out. They expressed their
disgust at the “sham" meeting where student opinions were
aired with no real guarantee of influence, at how they were

permission to the Alumni Association, provided they
use FSA Food Service for distribution. The mere
thought of allowing the most inefficient organization on campus to handle the sale of alcohol is
positively ludicrous.
In at least one prior experience, “The Fathers
Mustache” performance in May, the Food Service
exhibited poor judgment as well as a total lack of
responsibility and consideration for students. With
only two-thirds of the program complete, the Food
Service had run out of beer and the entire room
was strewn with empty beer cans, attributable to
Food Service, who neglected to provide any facility
for the disposal of these cans. The fact is that most
beer blasts, where alcoholic consumption is far
greater, are run with more efficiency, have faster
service than was provided and leave less of a mess
all of which are a reflection on Food Service’s
total lack of ability and foresight in this area.
I therefore seriously question the board’s discretion in allowing Food Service to handle future
sale of alcohol. I further recommend that the re
view board establish a permanent Board of Alco-r
holic Beverage Control, independent of Food Serto handle such sale.

The Faculty Senate ad hoc committee conducted
a very commendable hearing on the issue of firearms last Thursday evening. Although there were
moments when the session degenerated into shouting matches, the meeting on the whole was quite
beneficial to the University community.

The campus police are not to be compared with
their Buffalo counterparts. They are a small group
of men who are charged with maintaining order on
this obviously chaotic campus. In no instance has
a member of the campus police been charged with
conducle detrimental to any student. For the most
part, they have performed their duties in a very
commendable fashion.

and at the Buffalo Police Academy. All men also have to pass

Officially, campus police are

“If you do not want sidearms
issued under certain conditions
and at certain times to the Campus Security Force—please sign
in.” This petition has been circulating in protest to the campus
police request for sidearms “under certain conditions.”
It has been charged that the
third condition of the request—which Would allow the use of
sidearms while “engaged in a
‘stakeout’ in any University owned
or rented facility”—is ambiguous
and makes doubtful the reasons
for wanting guns. This reasoning
also has been applied to the
other conditions of the request by
the petition’s authors.
These conditions are: when
campus police engage in guarding or transporting substantial
sums of money for the University,
and when they are patrolling
vacant university buildings located at a considerable distance
from the Main St. campus.
Chief of Campus Security Police Eugene J. Murray indicated
that police are not going to harass
students. He also said that there
would be control in the form of
rules and regulations which the
police would obey.
Mr. Murray explained that not
all the 35-man police force would
be armed if the request is
granted. When they are armed, it
would be only on occasions specified in the request.
The original request was for
protection on the whole campus,
however, this has been limited by
the provisions.

The Alcohol Review Board met

Wednesday afternoon to consider
some of the problems involved
with implementing last year’s decision allowing use of alcoholic
beverages on campus.
Dr. Anthony F. Lorrenzetti, the

casions permits lave been applied for and received.
The application for a liquor license by the Faculty Student Association was reported as being
complete. Those involved noted
that the State Liquor Authority
investigating board had found no
irregularities within Norton Hall
and had reported no problems.
The seeming delay in obtaining
a license was attributed to the
fact that FSA was not a typical
applicant and to usual procedural
delays. A board member cited a
similar instance which took eight
j
months to a year.

Legal drinking age
A problem was raised concern-

ing consumption of alcohol by
dormitory residents. It was es-

timated many of the residents are
under the legal drinking age for
all or part of their freshmen year.
Various board members expressed

concern about legal responsibility
for underage residents who might

be served alcohol at dorm social
functions.
It was decided to give a formal

statement of the laws involved

and steps necessary to comply
with it to dormitory officials.
The board took action on a
formal request from the Alumni
Association to erect a tent near
Rotary Field where beer would
be served following each home
football game. Permission was
granted, providing the Alumni
Association agree to use FSA
food service for their concessions.
No decision was taken on a request that the State University of
Buffalo band be allowed to hold
a party for its members where alcohol would be served. Though
generally favorable, the board
felt more information was necessary before making a final decision.

�Demonstrations promised
CHICAGO
Leaders of the demonstrators who battled Chicago police during the
Democratic National Convention said they
will picket every rally of the three major
candidates from now until election day.
—

Their spokesman, Rennie Davis, said:
“We intend to confront the three candidates everywhere they speak by carrying
the spirit of Chicago into every corner of
the country.”
He defines “the spirit of Chicago” as
“a spirit of defiance and resistance against
a government that continues to ignore the
popular sentiment against the war.'’
Davis appeared at a news conference
with Tom Hayden and Abbit Hoffman.
Davis and Hayden were the project di-

rectors for the National Mobilization Committee, which played the lead role in
bringing thousands of antiwar demonstrators to Chicago during convention week.
Hoffman is the bushy-headed head of the
Youth International Party (Yippies) which
tried to hold a “festival of life” in city
parks during the convention.

Davis said the dissidents would also

dates Hubert H. Humphrey, Richard M.
Nixon and George C. Wallace.
On election day, he said, there will be
major demonstrations at the polling places
where Humphrey and Nixon vote. On inauguration day, “thousands” of demonstrators will be in Washington, Davis said.

Davis also announced a “National GI
Week” from Nov. 1 to Nov. 5 in which the
demonstrators will attempt to visit every
Army base in the country to “dramatize
our support and our kinship.”
Hoffman, who was arrested during the
convention for painting an obscene word
on his forehead, came to the news conference fresh from a court appearance where
he was charged with carrying a switchblade knife aboard an airliner.
Hoffman was arrested on another charge
when he alighted from the plane Tuesday
and the knife was discovered later. He told
the news conference the weapon was “a

case

by Robert P. Sawicki

Rumor has it that is very ‘in’ on both
the right and the left to say that the
streets belong to the people, depending of
course, upon what you wish to sanction.
An officer of the law at the hamburger
stand by the King’s Plaza Friday night
told me that I had better get in my
friend’s car and get off the street. I was
advised by the tone of his voice and the
manner in which he menacingly held his
ugly stick, that if I did not he was going to
smack me in the head, which thereafter
would also not belong to me.

In any case, the following appeared in
the latest issue of I. F. Stone’s weekly,
and I would like to share it, although it
will be miserably condensed:
“The New Left
are still operating
in a fog of misconceptions. The main one
is that ‘the people’ are against the war.
The people on the contrary are confused
and divided. To say that the streets ‘belong to the people’ as Tom Hayden has
done is to overlook those people who feel
the streets belong to them, too, for the
ordinary business of their lives
The
need is for dialogue, not monologue, to
win them over
To play with revolutionary talk and tactics as the New Left
is doing, when there is no revolutionary
situation, is to act as provocateurs for an
American Fascism.

Hoover said.

At the first closed hearing of the National Commission on the Causes and
Prevention of Violence, Clark deplored
excessive police action as “the most dangerous” kind of violence because he said
it leaves the public unprotected.

“If it is true that some innocent people
were the victims of unnecessary roughness on the part of the police,” he added,
‘it is also true that the Chicago police
and the National Guard were faced with
vicious, attacking mobs who gave them
no alternative but to use force to prevent
these mobs from accomplishing their destructive purposes.”

Clark said his statement had “no direct
application” to Chicago, hut Hoover, in
separate testimony, openly sided with
Mayor Richard J. Daley and the vigorous

Humphrey was in town on Tuesday,
conspicuous among those who accompanied him were Dulski and McCarthy. The pair of representatives were not
here when O’Dwyer toured Buffalo on
Monday—and I take this to mean that in
the present situation a man should embrace the party, not the party embrace
the man.

and

When Humphrey said that America
does not need to be led by the “raucous
voices of the left or right,” was he campaigning or giving a display of self-abuse?
Any middle-of-the-road man deserves a lot
of credit—and their arguments even more.
How many logical persons can construct
whole policies around conflicting premises? How do you defeat a bubbling mass
of jello who uses a rebuttal of one of his
premises as a proof for another? That is
how Humphrey can say Nixon “wants to
run for sherif” and yet give Mayor Daley
a solid endorsement for the melee in Chicago.

Approaching Owerri from the north and
south, federal soldiers said resistance was
“strong.” However, the fighting stopped
when the federal troops swept into the
city. Reports reaching Lagos said both
sides suffered heavy casualties.
The Nigerian announcement also disclosed the capture during the weekend of
the rebel airstrip at Uli-Ihiali, which the
International Red Gross had been using

starving Biafran war refugees.

“The deeper tragedy lies in the increasing abandonment of non-violent tactics by black and white dissenters alike.
To howl down those with whom we differ,
to use obscenities instead of arguments,
to abandon persuasion for direct action,
to dehumanize the other side with cries
of ‘pigs’ and worse is to embark on a
game the rightists are better equipped to
play.”

After Chicago, this comes on as very
sound advice. The press was rather sympathetic for a couple of days, but now it
seems as if Mayor Daley was a leader of
great restraint, while vile activists and
criminals defiled the parks and streets of
Chicago. At first scattered reports were
heard, such as Nelson Algren’s: “I don’t
think the clubbing represents one man.
I think it represents a majority of the
people of Chicago. If an election were
held today, he’d win.” Now, under Mayor
Daley’s authorization, Chicago has produced its own hour long special for television and radio, which has been broadcast on 140 television stations and over
1000 radio stations across the country.

Richard Nixon, the Republican presidential candidate, suggested that Humphrey’s Southern campaign leaders may
be secretly helping George C. Wallace to
keep Southern states out of the Nixon
column and throw the election into the
House of Representatives.
Wallace meanwhile accepted his nomination at a Texas state convention of the
American Party of Texas, and said he
represents “the majority thinking of the
people.”

In his first public praise of Humphrey
since routinely congratulating him on his
nomination in Chicago last month, the
President released a telegram he sent

Nixon told a news conference at Anaheim, Calif., that it was “vitally important” to keep the presidential election out
of the House. The constitution prescribes
that if no candidate gets a majority of
the electoral college vote, the House then
chooses the winner on the basis of a
majority vote of the 50 state delegations.
Nixon spoke of “reports we get from
the South now to the effect that there
may be some collusion developing between Democratic leaders in the South
and Wallace supporters
for the purpose of supporting Wallace, not for the
purpose of supporting Mr. Humphrey.”
-

-

Wallace told an airport rally at Wichita Falls, Tex., that the Washington state

convention of his third party would mark
the 50th state in which he has met requirements to get on the ballot.
The Christian Science Monitor said Mr.
Nixon already is seriously considering
his Cabinet choices. The Monitor said
Nixon’s “early thinking” includes New
York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller for defense secretary; former Pennsylvania Gov.
William Scranton for secretary of state;
Michigan Gov. George Romney for commerce secretary; Massachusetts Gov. John
A. Volpe for secretary of labor or transportation, and perhaps Sen. Edward W.
Brooke (R, Mass.) for attorney general.

�New English course
The English Department hat established a program leading to a MA degree in Humanities.
The program will involve students wishing to
continue beyond a BA degree, but are unable to
take courses during the day.
Classes will be held during summer sessions
and late afternoons during the academic year.
A BA degree, two letters of recommendations,
preferably from former professors and ,a grade
point average of 1.75 on a 3.0 scale are required
for admission.
Students must complete 33 hours of study in
the following manner; 24 are from the English
Department, six in another field and three credits
for a written project.
Following much the same lines as the current
graduate English program, courses in the English
Department will be taught by regular faculty.
According to Dr. Louisa Duus, the program's
director of admissions, those applying now will be
considered for admission for the 1969-70 academic
year.

Youth Talent Bank.
The bank “would also make the
names of young people available
to state and local governments
across the country.”
Later, in a question and answer
period with Canisius students,
Mr. Humphrey said that the present Selective Service system is
“built-in irouble.”
He endorsed use of a lottery
system to determine who will
be drafted.

Vietnam war
Mr, Humphrey said that the
majority plank on the Vietnam
war which was adopted at the
Democratic National Convention
“represents what I have been trying to say.” He said that it “gives
guidance for a political settlement” and provides the next
President “with a lot of leeway”
in attempts to end the fighting.
' He
believes that the South
Vietnamese army is “greatly improved” and sees “hope” for the
time when a systematic withdrawal of U.S. troops can begin.

He made clear, however, that
“when that can happen I can’t

safely predict.”
James Dooling, a graduate student at the State Universi y of
Buffalo told Mr. Humphrey from
the audience that we are fighting
to uphold a corrupt South Vietnamese government. “This is why

the radicals of of America can’t
stand you,” Mr. Dooling told him.
Mr. Humphrey admi ted that
the South Vietnamese have made
some mistakes and compared
them to the instability and corruption of America’s early years.
“The Viet Cong is a terrorist
organization. Your government is
prepared to settle that war this
afternoon,” he said.

Humphrey booed
Upon his arrival at the StatlerHilton Hotel, Mr. Humphrey was
met by a large crowd which included about 250 jeering demon-

Humphrey’s short outdoor speech,
while the Vice-President appealed
to Americans to “repudiate the

voices of violence/’
He said we can have a society
in which people “work together,
talk together and reason together” or one in which we
“shout together and hate to-

gether.”
Humphrey decried extremism,
saying “America doesn’t have to
be led by the raucous voices of
the left or of the right.”

Included among the demonstra-

tors were members of Youth
Against War and Fascism, the

Buffalo Draft Resistance Union,
Students for a Democratic Society,
and the Peace and Freedom Party.
Inside, the tone ■ of Mr. Humphrey’s speech changed with the
tone of the crowd. He spoke to a
group of jubilant party leaders
and faithful, and he told them
what they came to hear.
After proclaiming that “our
victory march started in Buffalo
today,” Mr. Humphrey turned to
the “modern southern Nixon strategy.”

"be a statesman"

He made references to the concept of the “new Nixon,” but
said “the one you want to watch
out for is the real Nixon
the
man that I intend to whip on
election day.”
He criticized Nixon’s s and on
the nuclear non-proliferation
treaty, appealing to him to “be
a statesman and quit playing polities with the lives of humanity.”
Mr. Nixon has said that he favors
the treatey but it should not
“yet” be passed by the Senate.
...

He said Mr. Nixon “is not a
racist” but a man who “calls upon
Americans to slow down the rate
of progress in America.” Mr.
Humphrey said that it is a time
for “forbearance and tolerance.”
He said that we must “cleanse
ourselves of discrimination” of
any form.

In regard to his selection of
Senator Edmund Muskie of Maine
as his vice-presidential running
mate, he said that unlike the
Nixon situation “there was no
one twisting my arm.” He said
he picked Muskie on the basis of
“maturity, stability and experience” and as “a man could serve
brilliantly as president, any day.”

living experiment

Staff

Reporter

There is something new at Allenhurst this year. The
previously all-male populated apartment units have gone
co-ed to provide a unique living and learning experience
called Communications College.
The seeds for a Communisity of Buffalo, hopes
get

include a jug band group and
Interest grew among the student body, the faculty and the
University administration. In late
April students and faculty formally proposed the idea to the University and asked for a physical
facility to house the College. It
was not until late May that commitments were finally made.
The University provided a court
at the University-owned Allenhurst Apartments for the resident
members of the College. Only
students who definitely committed themselves to live in university residence halls are housed in
the Allenhurst unit.
Academic credit will be granted
to each individual student in his
form of independent study. Faculty members will make applications for academic credit to the
University Planning Committee
or to their respective depart-

ments.

Self-made rules

Rules and regulations governing how the College operates are
set up by its members. There are
no traditional regulations or restrictions for the college members.
The College also has some
funds with which to work. The
traditional activities fee is turned
over to the Communications College for its own use.
The degree of formality varies
among different learning activities in the College, depending on
the pattern of common interests
that are discovered or generated
in working together. Sheila Levine, a freshman at State Univer-

other kinds of musical groups.
Some projects will be planned
for the community- as a whole,
while others will be directed towards the interests of only a few
individuals. Lin Walker, a resident of the Communications College, wants to get into a sensitivity group of ten to 12 with a
leader “who can be one of them”
and who can have the ability “to
facilitate the discussion.”

What the students think
Many feel that the mass meetings the College holds are un-

Ideas in flux

productive.

At these meetings,
however, interested individuals
meet to work on their similar interests. In the main office, a
bulletin board is posted where,
aside from the usual notices, students advertise for persons with
similar interests to join them in
their projects.
As Miss Levine describes it, the
Communications College, has “a
whole different atmosphere.”
Since there is no resident advisor,
the student is “forced to do and
find out everything for himself.”
There are no “quiet hours” and
the residents must impose restrictions on themselves.
Miss Walker believes that with
no set rules, it “makes it easier
to communicate. The absence of
a curfew frequently allows for
the continuation of discussion
that would ordinarily be forced to
terminate at the striking of the
midnight hour.”

Problems

accomplishments

Miss Levine feels that the College has already accomplished a

great deal. Living arrangements
set, the members have a lot
of enthusiasm and the College already has the approval of many
faculty members. Since the College started with nothing, the
formulation of a plan is a good
start. Miss Levine looks forward
to sensitivity trainipg with a
psychologist, trained in making
people bring their thought to the
surface, which she hopes will
bring members of the group
closer together.
are

The College also has problems
to overcome, such as inadequate
furniture in the apartments;
kitchens without tables or chairs,
and small living rooms without
couches, chairs or lounging furni-

ture.
Lin feels that she cannot live in

the unit without doing something.
“I’ve got to make an effort to
learn to communicate. People
love to talk. If you have an idea
. . . people will listen.”

Intercourse among students and faculty is
dilated at Communications College, a radical departure from usual dorm life. Members are shown at a recent picnic.

Grape workers seek boycott support
by Raymond Malak
Special to

The

Spectrum

“In the souls of the people, the grapes
of wrath are filling and growing heavy,
growing heavy for the vintage.”
Thus runs the final sentence in a chapter of John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of
Wrath. What was true almost 40 years
ago is still true today. The farm workers of
our nation are forced to lead lives that are
geared not to advancement, but to bare
survival.
A California grape worker does not face
the abrasive dilemma of whether to buy
loafers or hush-puppies for his children,
out instead must worry about having
otiough money to get shoes of any kind
for the members of his family.
At present, if a grape worker was able
40 hours a week every week of
jothework

0 $2,386.
This is approximately one-half
°f the average wage
for all Californians.

trouble-filled years. Some victories have
been won, but the over-all triumph of justtice and dignity over injustice and ignominy still lies in the future. Total union
recognition is the elusive goal of the
farm workers, and they are trying to
achieve this goal by organizing a boycott
of California table grapes throughout the
country.
Farm workers were sent from California
to 26 major U.S. cities, and also to Toronto—the third largest grape market in
North America. Buffalo is one of the 26
cities, and indications are that a growing
wave of sympathy for the grape workers
exists in “The City of Good Neighbors.”
Sympathy alone, unfortunately, does not
accomplish a great deal; it must be accompanied by cooperation amongst the
citizenry of the community and a willingness to take positive, concrete actions.

Local organizers of the movement
Juan and Maria Flores are the organ-

izers of the grape boycott in the Buffalo
area. The newly-married couple left Delano, along with six other UFW members,
in mid-July. After dropping off the others
in Cincinnati, Philadelphia and New York
City, the Flores arrived in Buffalo with
$50.00 to carry them through their stay.
They were temporarily housed by Mrs.
Carolyn Taylor, whose son has been aiding
the strikers in California,
The next day they met with James L.
Kane, president of the Buffalo AFL-CIO
Council. Mr. Kane gave them the use of
his law office on the 13th floor of the
Prudential Building and has paid for their
meals in the building’s restaurant. At
present the Flores are living in an apartment in Lancaster, for which the rent
still has not been paid.
In a recent interview with The Spec-

trum, the Flores spoke of the aims of the

UFW, and how the boycott is progressing,
both nationally and locally.

Maria: four demands
“The major aim of the UFW is to have
the grape owners recognize us as a union.
Thus far, 12 companies, including Gallo,
Schenley, and Christian Brothers, have
signed contracts with us.
“After we are recognized as a legitimate
union by everyone, there are four demands wrich we feel must be met: first,
a guaranteed hourly wage at all times of
the year; second, sanitary conditions in
the working areas. (Right now the sanitary facilities in most places are horrible.
Women at times have to relieve themselves right in the fields. Sometimes
water is unavailable and temperatures
reach as high as 115 degrees); third, a
viable seniority system that protects workers of long standing; fourth, an end of
harassment, largely through the appointment of stewards. The stewards could
represent any worker who felt that he or
she had been treated unfairly, as is the
case in most unions.”

Juan: quotes Cesar Chavez
“We have accomplished a great deal

so

far, but a lot of work lies ahead of us.
We have gained everything we have right
now without ever resorting to violence,
even wl icn tl ic owners
lolent
ive use&lt;
tactics against us.
“For example, one day last June five
pickets in California were hit by grower
cars and two were dragged into the fields
and beaten so seriously that they had to
be hospitalized.
“We all have great respect for Cesar
Chavez, our director, as a person and for
all that he has done so far. Let me quote

what Cesar has said on civil disobedience:
T am perfectly willing to disobey
laws that I consider unjust, but in breaking trese unjust laws I do not beg for
mercy. I want to be punished to the
fullest extent of the law. Any person
fighting for justice must be prepared to
act against unjust legislation. But just as
important, he must be prepared to accept
the consequences of his act, including the
willingness to suffer the punishment
meted out to law-breakers,’
“

”

Maria: an appeal to Buffalo

“Nationally, there has been a 15 to 20%
reduction in the amount of grapes sold;
this is the Sunkist Grower’s own estimate.
Here in Buffalo, we have had some luck
in establishing a boycott of grapes, but
much more cooperation is needed if we
are to be successful. Loblaw’s, Acme,
Tops, Harvest the Best, and Bell’s have
all stopped advertising, but all of these
places still refuse to stop selling their
grapes.
“We appeal to the people of Buffalo
to refrain from buying grapes, to help us
in our struggle to raise the living standards and dignity of our people. Mayor
Sedita supports us; the Common Council
has recently passed a resolution supporting us. We need the help and cooperation of the housewives and shoppers in
the city. We are going to have a pe»'

.ration outside the Acme supermarket on the Corner of Broadway and
Bailey this Saturday, from 10 a.m. to
6 p.m. We invite everyone to join us
there to show Acme and supermarkets,
throughout the city that we are supported
by the people who keep them in business, and that the people of Buffalo are
willing to stand behind us to aid us in
our fight for a better life.”

Statement on student rights is to]

series of small discussions. Background on the statement will be
supplied by Dr. Harry Gideonse,
chancellor of the New School for
Social Research in an address to
the body tomorrow.

A statewide University • presidents’ meeting this weekend will
discuss the year-old Joint Statement on Rights and Freedoms of
Students.
The focus of the Saratoga
Spring meeting will be the statement which was drawn together
by representatives of the American Association of College Professors, the National Student Association, the Association of American Colleges and the National
Association of Student Personnel
Administrators.
The purpose of introducing the
statement at this time, according
to Everard Pineo, associate dean
at the State University at Albany,
is to provide a thorough review
of the whole question of student
rights. “The presidents will be
giving a long, hard look at it.”
Mr. Pineo indicated that there
can be “no certainty as to the
outcome” of the meeting. However, it is “possible that the
presidents might adopt the joint

statement as

Dr. Gideonse was on the drafting committee for the statement.
A panel session to discuss the
statement tomorrow will include

one faculty member, two State
University of New York students
and a vice president for student
affairs. President Meyerson will
be the moderator.

Small discussion groups provide each University president
with the oportunity to examine
the statement thoroughly. These
groups will report back to the full
body. Mr. Pineo explained that
this will gauge the reaction of
the presidents.
The fate of the statement will
depend on this reaction. Mr.
Pineo said that if the presidents
recommend adopting it as State
University policy, “there are several more channels through which
it would have to go,”
The statement has been “cir

in employing State University of
Buffalo students “as both an ed-

Mr. Dullea, who professes to
be politically state-oriented, noted
that. even in a presidential election year, state and local politics
and political moves deserve attention. He indicated that the
state elections loom as important educational and social questions that may have a more direct

Clarity of emotion
Cohen’s poems are dynamic, unafraid and virile. They attain
greatest height with “This is for
you” or “The Rest is Dross” as
statements of a lover. Words that
roll from side to side with love
are his specialty; seldom do other
pieces carry such clarity of emotion. Other poems work occasionally, but generally the statements of introspection and social
relevance are less than impressive, The poetry is at times very

Katz: Exag-g-erations
situation and yet clearly a prune
mover. I would like to say that
Katz is alive and well, living at
Cornell or near Middletown, or
perhaps freshly returned from
one of his hashish shopping trips
in the Near East. But there is a
feeling of unease in Katz’s writing that suggests that although
intensely alive, he is perhaps not
quite well, as all of us are not
quite well.

by Phil Cook
Special to The Spectrum

“Katz, Katz, stop writing me,
Katz,” yells Peter Prince. Katz
has his troubles too. His characters are unruly, not ill behaved
or unkept as some nowadays,
just hard to control. Those that
he has hired, Philip Parrel and

Linda Lawrence, are present for
work if a little peeved at the demands put on them. But Peter
Prince, the guy with the lead
role, is indifferent to Katz’s best
efforts. He is exaggerated. And
young in an uppity way.

New hero
In a time in which the antihero has become a popular literary type, Katz has extrapolated a
new type, the anti-author. As one
reads through Peter Prince, one
has a sense of an over abundance
of characters and yet a clear
sense that Peter Prince is also
alone —for as rapidly and as
vaguely as the surroundings and
possibilities multiply, so the number of characters multiplies, but
without depth. Peter Prince is
very really a character alone.

Steve Katz has not exactly writ-

ten, as the jacket says, a

novel,

nor is

This book was originally entitled ‘The Divorces of Peter
Prince”—divorces refering to the
faceless women in Peter Prince’s
life, but more clearly to Peter
Prince’s own divorce from reality.
His anomolous position as a character in a book, and the insubstantial nature of his involvement with people, gives the question of his existence a sort of
hesitant quality—a quality which
the author, too, chooses to project upon himself. He finds himself impotent in the face of the
actions of his characters who
have a life but not a purpose of
their own. In the end they destroy his (Katz’s) plans for the
ending of the book and participate in another.

The book is a collection of fantasies that represent attempts at

all their ridiculousness into a
“piece of serious creative writing.”

Katz’s fantasies are wildly furnished with tenuous, baroque details. Details which come out so

The author has felt free to intrude himself marginally in the
text, not only in comment, but
symbolically, as when he x’s out
whole sections and, rather than
actually commenting on the action, he often utilizes marginal
notes to discuss other issues, to
suggest irrelevance ai.d to intrude his air conditioner, and his
little concerns upon the reader,
much as they are in reality intruding upon him as he writes.
Thus we have a sense, not of the
story of Peter Prince, but of that
of Peter Katz, Steven Prince.

Peter Prince is a very visual
book, not merely in the conventional sense of illustrations, drawings, pictures, doodles, pornographic scribblings, but also in a
more formal sense. At one point
the story line divides, continuing
down the page in two separate
columns. As one of these columns
comes to a cusp it too divides,
and there are three columns on
the page. Luckily for us the story
did not feel like further reproducing itself, and the situation
resolves itself into a single column. But there is a feeling that
the form is not totally controlled
by the author, that there is something anomolous about what is
happening on the page. There is,
for instance, a marginal bzzzz of
a fan which occasionally intrudes
physically on to the page, zings
right through the sentences, right
down the page, making patterns
and generally interfering with the

the Golden Flashes
would like nothing better than to
present new Head Coach Dave
Puddington with his first varsity
triumph. Throw in memories of
the 30-6 demolition job which
Buffalo did on Kent State a year
ago, and you just know Kent State
is going to come out fighting.
like the Bulls, Kent State will
enter tomorrow’s game with an
0-1 record. The Flashes lost a
thriller to Dayton, 24-10, a week
ago. But according to Coach Puddington, Kent could have won
that game “if it hadn’t been for
several key mental errors in the
second half.”

A. Mrs. E. Dettman, chief operator, said this is a temporary,
albeit recurring, problem. The switchboard is always inundated with
calls the first three weeks of each semester, for obvious reasons.
She knows there have been service complaints and even a telephone
company serviceman recently checked their operation. The four
operators (three regular and one relief) work at top speed and
there are no mechanical or staff problems. The board, however,
has limited capacity. There has been no increase in its size in the
past six years.

�By-laws review may result in
increased voice for students
The process of reviewing the
by-laws of the Faculty of Social
Sciences and Administration will
hopefully result in increased student participation in faculty affairs according to Dr. David A.
Smith, head of that body’s bylaws review committee.
The by-laws review committee,
said Dr. Smith is to include four
non-voting student members—two
graduates and two undergrade
uates.

A graduate and an undergraduate elected from each department
in the Faculty will form a pool
numbering about 25 people. This
pool will select four of its members to the by-laws committee.
Dr. Smith described the committee’s duties as “looking over
and possibly revising present bylaws. These by-laws now provide
for no student participation.
“We’d like to see how and
where there can be more student
participation in running the Fac-

_ulty of

Social Sciences and Administration,” he said.

“The policy committee of the
faculty recommended student participation in hy-laws review. If
one of the results of review might
be a greater voice for students,
we felt there should be students
on the committee.”

Department pool
Dr. Smith emphasized the importance of the pool of department representatives: “Some of
those not selected to the committee might be active in other
ways. I know of one and possibly two other Faculty committees which probably will have
student members.
“This is the first time in my

Students eligible for voting and
committee participation include
the department’s accepted members and deferred applicants.

The Faculty of Social Sciences
and Administration includes the
School of Business Administration, School of Social Welfare;
Departments of Anthropology,
Economics, Geography, History,
Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology.
Those interested in representing their department may obtain
nominating forms from all department offices or from their
instructors. Forms will be available from Tuesday through
Thursday. Elections are scheduled
for Oct. 2 through Oct. 4.

Can there be this kind of excitement in engineering?
A long beautiful drive... just the hint of a slice... and almost on
the green. Now, address the ball... concentrate—and, wham! to a lie
four feet from the cup.

Try Xerox and see

That’s the excitement of the game that gets a golfer up at dawn
on Saturdays.* We think it’s analogous to the excitement that keeps some
of our technical people on the job after hours: the pleasure of personal
achievement in solving problems for which there are no book solutions.
One of the concerns of our management is to see that our professional
people experience this kind of excitement. They know where it can
lead... a payroll that numbered 3,000 in 1960, for example, now exceeds
24,000... products that have literally revolutionized communications and
are having a world-wide impact on such problems as illiteracy.
That’s why we suggest that if you’ve been missing out on the kind of
professional satisfaction you expected from an engineering career,
look into what Xerox can provide in the way of engineering
excitement. Your degree in Engineering or Science can qualify you for
some intriguing openings in fundamental and applied research,
engineering, manufacturing and programming.

What’s new?
It seems that for some people “news” can be a confusing
word. For instance, conversations with athletic department
and administration officials about the shaky future of intercollegiate athletic programs here elicited a common response
of indignation and surprise because, according to one comment, “Oh, that’s been known for a long time.”
A situation that is nothing new to some individuals, however, is quite definitely news to us, the students, the ones
who are being told it is our financial support the athletic
department needs most.
We did not know we were paying through the nose for
such things as scholarships and tutoring for University athletes. We did not know that while football might attract
“prestige” for us, it is also a $100,000 a-year loser.
Perhaps even more important, most of the athletes themselves did not know that their future depended upon a series
of very questionable financial contingencies.
We did not know we were giving our no-strings-attached
checks every year to an athletic department whose priorities can be summed up in one word: football. Perhaps Doc
Urich is right when he says that football has nothing to worry
about. The University, according to the prevalent athletic
department philosophy, shall if necessary have “big-time”
football at the expense of every other intercollegiate athletic
program here.
What was reported in this newspaper Tuesday, as well as
what will be discussed in depth next Tuesday is indeed important “news” to most of us in the University community.
But just so we can provide some news for those who consider
all this “old” news, we would like to remind the athletic planners of something which perhaps they’ve overlooked:
Students in this University have been authorized by the
State University to control the allocations of their student
fees—and that includes intercollegiate athletics.
which isn’t news to Us.

What’s up, Doc?
Compare the following statements that appeared in two
separate stories in Buffalo’s evening newspaper:
Doc Urich: Football coach, (commenting on Tuesday’s page-one story in The Spectrum) “This is one boy
writing his opinion, and does not state the policy of the
University. I checked with Albany when I saw the story
and I can say it has nothing to do with the future of
athletics at U.B.”
James E. Peelle: (Physical Education Director, commenting on the future of intercollegiate athletics at the
University) “If, after the (student) referendum, we still
have voluntary fees, the department would have to find
money among the alumni, or the state would have to allow us to spend some of the general fund which they
have, or we go out of business.”
Someone is not telling the truth to someone.

Rap with ollie

—an ignorant cat.

Soul Brother, where are we at right now? Right
now we are physically standing on the ground that
belongs to the United States of America—our country—a piece of a large ball of mud called Earth.
On this ball of mud called Earth we see all around
us materialism.

see a new Cadillac and right away we want it.
We see a new suit and we want it, Instead, let’s
think and see what we should do.
Should we get a job in Bethlehem Steel, better
known as the “Ham?” Should we go on welfare?
Dig this: should we go for an “education?” If we
go for an education, let’s learn what the soul

Repression of young people seems to be fashionable in
this election year. The latest blatant example of “keepin’ the
kids in line” occurred yesterday when a Senate and House
conference agreed to call for a mandatory cutoff of all Federal aid to students whose actions were “of a serious nature
and contributed to the disruption of the administration of
such institution.” Students would face a loss of aid for a
period of two years under the following conditions:

Such flagrant abuse of the necessary standards of due

President.

•

What is meant by “Soul Brother?”
When you hear the word soul brother, you have
to take into consideration one thing: these cats—the soul brothers— have been living under constant pressure for many years. And if you could
stop and think for one second, you would see that
they went through constant hell together.
Soul is like a thing that you and your chick
have when you and she communicate—mentally and
physically. Only when you and another person go
through hell together can you really see his soul
and thus find a soul-togetherness. Thus the soul
brothers have a 350-year contract of soul-togethernes from which no one can take away nuthin’.
To be a soul brother, “Chuck,” you have to get
right down off your tickie-tackie throne and go
through hell with a brother and see if you and he
have the same soul-togetherness.
The soul is the inner-you that cries out for the
mental needs of your mind. When your stomach
cries out for food, it registers in your soul—the
inner you; your brain analyzes the trouble and
solves the problem; it restores peace within your
soul.

•

Aid for whom?

I was a student at U.B. last year, and hope
that more will join my protest.
I began a fast at 12:01 a.m. on August 30, 1968
the year of our Lord. This fast is in protest of:
Violence in Chicago and other cities
War
Political methods in the United States
Lack of Christian principles in the world
Oppression by Governments of the people of the
world
Selective Service System in the United States
I intend to maintain this fast for a period of
not less than thirty days. This is done in the hope
that people will become more aware of the need
for Christian principles to be applied in their
consistent actions of their day to day lives. During
this fast I intend to consume water and one vitamin pill per day. During this time I will consume
no other food or liquid.
May Christ have mercy on His earth.

Gadfly is criticized
To the editor
This is in reply to the phenomena of butcher
worshiping. I am referring directly to “the gadfly,” Mark Schneider, in his article of Sept. 17, and
the new radical left which he devinely follows and
depicts.
It is typical of the new left to attack murderers
like Batista and Duvalier in order to bring the
“saint” Castro to the cross of love. This maneuver
is the most widely used, and the one that provides
an hypocrisy that the radicals supposedly attack
and are free of.
How obvious the hypocrisy is depends on how
well one is able to decipher fact from demagoguery
in writings as typical as Mr. Schneider’s. Describing Castro as the king of humane government, but
having enough sense to realize the murderous activity of the butchers Batista and Duvalier, leads
me to the conclusion that “the gadfly” is either
ignorant of the situation in Cuba, is afraid that
knowing the truth will hurt his romantic revolutionary heart, or that he only listens to Radio
Havana’s “truth.”
It is not too hard to compare Castro with Batista,
Mr. Schneider. Batista represented oppression, political murdering and kidnapping, and the fearsome secret police. If you open those big revolutionary (the new left adores that word with passion)
eyes of yours, you will find Batista’s compliment in
Castro. Castro has expanded the secret police to
include not only professional snoopers but amateurs
too. He has advanced the fear of strangers to the
fear of neighbors. Batista allowed no opposition.
Mr. Schneider, may I please have the address of
the loyal anti Castro party, communist or other, in
Havana? No mention is ever made of political murders or disappearings unless the fascists are involved. Are you afraid to look at the disposal of
Cuban political leaders in opposition?

Reading leftist material, it would do well to
compare it to fascist writings. The similarities are
so great that one is led to wonder win re the difference lies—do you see the difference?

After every soul
brother finds himself and realizes where he’s at as
far as race is concerned, he has to check the other
brothers, the white soul brothers. We will have to
build a mental cave and light it up, put a big
boulder in front of the cave and check into ourselves. Ask questions like. “Do I find myself
through an organization, a fraternity, a club, institution? Do I find myself through my soul relationship with my soul brothers? Do I find myself through my religion?" Hell no! We find ourselves through our mental caves. Through ourselves
we can find ourselves, and no one can do it for us.
So let’s pull ourselves together. And after that it
won’t be hard for us to find our human, I mean
our real human soul brother and sister.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

State cuts intercollegiate athletic funds
by Daniel Edelman
Spectrum Staff Reporter

The future of the entire sports program

at the State University of Buffalo

may

have suffered a final death blow as a
result of a decision made in Albany early
this month
that no State funds be
allocated for intercollegiate athletics.
Emergency budget meetings were held
at each State University center within
the past week to dicsuss alternate ways of
financing existing programs and plans for
the future.
The situation on this campus is especially serious because Buffalo is the only
university center in the state that has a
big time football team. Football expenditures accounted for an estimated 60% of
the past year’s intercollegiate athletics
—

budget.

The possibility of holding another referendum dealing with mandatory athletic
fees will probably be raised at a polity
meeting of the Stuednt Association on
Sept. 25. In a general referendum in May,
students voted against charging such a
fee, while deciding that an activities fee
should be levied.
A petition circulated in May calling for
a mandatory athletics fee has not been
verified by the Student Association.
Dr. Lawrence A. Cappiello, assistant to
Executive Vice President Peter F. Regan,
is expected to issue a special report to the
University Budget Committee this week
on the future of intercollegiate athletics
at the University.

1967 statement
The decision of the State University of
New York to refuse to fund intercollegiate
athletics began in Nov., 1967.
The Trustees of the State University
then issued a position paper dealing with
athletics, which stated in part:
Intercollegiate athletics are merely part
of a three-way program of physical education, recreation and athletics, and expenditures should be made accordingly:
No state money should be used for
athletic scholarships;
The state should assume control over
all gate receipts and give back to the
schools just enough for equipment, facilities and maintenance;
Coaches, as in the past, should be
paid as instructors and profesors in the
academic budget of the State University.
This spring the Trustees issued an ambiguous statement, which said that inter•

intercollegiate sports looks
bleak as state support may be squelched

collegiate athletics are indeed an integral
part of university life.
On the basis of that assurance, the proposed University budget for the 1969-70
academic year contained for the first
time a request for intercollegiate funds.
The amount of this request exceeded
$250,000.

Budget bureau forces cuts

Then the bombshell fell early this
month, as the State Bureau of the Budget
notified University officials that no money
would be given for intercollegiate athletics.
The bureau added that all budgetary requests for the 1969-70 academic year and
the future might face cuts.
The impact of this decision can be seen
in an examination of the Department of
Physical Education’s budget proposals for
the 1967-68 and 1969-70 academic years.
The proposed budget for football in
1967-68 listed expenses of $109,000 and
derived income of $115,000. The latter
figure includes gate receipts however,
which are now controlled by the state
the actual income the school received is
considerably less than $115,000,
Similarly, basketball, the second largest
sport at the University, showed a 1967-68
budgetary request for $41,000, and an
estimated derived income of $12,000.
Again, the latter figure includes gate
receipts; the figure fqr actual income is
less.
—

Fees now voluntary
Last year, athletic fees were made
voluntary for the first time. The budget
for intercollegiate athletics included an
estimate of $180,000 from student athletic
tee. The actual amount received was approximately $80,000.
In the proposed 1967-68 budget, $120,000
was listed for athletic scholarships
about one-third of the entire budget re—

quest.
The preliminary 1969-70 budget is similar to the previous year’s except for a
to $100,000
$20,000 increase
in the
estimated income from voluntary student
athletic fees. The proposed 1969-70 budget
includes a deficit of $42,000.
Indications are that the tightness. of
the state's operating budgets will not
alleviate the situation. At this point, the
only solution seesm to be an incraw in
student monies for intercollegUte athletics.
James E. Peelle, Director of Physical
Education, was unavailable for comment.

An open meeting has been called by
the ad hoc committee of the Faculty

Hall.

been made by the security officers to
President Meyerson and was thereafter
referred by the president to the executive
committee of the Faculty Senate.

The request also included a provision
that in the case sidearms were issued,
those officers who received them must
firealso receive a course in the use of
arms.

At the committee’s only meeting Sept.

12, it decided that Mr. Murray should not
participate in the committee’s decisionmaking process since he represented the
interests of the security forces. He concurred and accordingly, voluntarily withdrew from committee membership while
offering to assist in any way he could.
Mr. Joyce indicated that investigations

are now being undertaken to explore
possible alternatives to using security
forces, especially in the area of guarding

and transporting money. He explained that
“further investigations will have to be
made” into the possibility of employing
private security firms for that particular
job.'

cussed at the open meeting are those
arising from the initiating of the request
for sidearms. Such problems include; What
prompted the request and were the conditions part of the original request, or were
they revisions?
The meeting is an outgrowth of apparent confusion and expressed concern
in the University community on the question of arming campus police, with the
committee members each expressing a
desire to be informed of the opinion of
interested parties, Mr. Joyce explained.

The latest Gallup Poll and surveys by two national

Newsweek magazine prediced that former Alabama Gov. George
C. Wallace would get more electoral votes than Vice President Hubert
H. Humphrey In an immediate election.
The Gallup figures indicated that Nixon is the front-runner in
terms of probable percentages of the popular vote, but it indicated
that both Wallace and Humphrey are closing the gap.

“We shall overcome not easily, not immediately,
but the sun shall shine again for us.”
Czechoslovaks got this assurance over nationwide television from

He borrowed what may be the nation’s new rallying cry against
the Soviet occupation from the civil rights movement in the United

Smrkovsky slipped it into the weekly “Face to Face” interview

Senator Jacob K. Javits, in a campaign visit to

The Republican, seeking his third Senate term, said he does not

electorate.
Javits also urged the Senate to act, one way or the other, on the
Fortas nomination. He said he will vote for confirmation of Justice

Every last nut has to be factory-approved.
Including the nut who does the fixing.
He’s a graduate of a VW service school.
And he knows everything there is to know about a VW.
Unless we make an improvement.
Then he goes right back to school to learn about that.
What all this nutty devotion to standardization adds up to,
of course, is service that’s very efficient and very sure-fingered.

�Daley replies

(Q

CHIGAGO—‘Mayor Richard J. Daley and the City of
Chicago presented their “riot week” television and radio
special and then asked the nation to “be the judge.”

The hour-long “documentary,” entitled “What Trees
Do They Plant?” gave evidence of “overreaction” by the
Chicago Police Department during the Democratic convention as well as presenting evidence that the police
acted only after severe provocation and with only limited
force.
In fact, Daley, in a short statement at the end of the
program, said that “in the heat of emotion and riot some
policemen may have overreacted, but to judge the entire
police department by the alleged action of a few would
be just as unfair as to judge our entire younger generation
by the actions of the mob.”
The radio version of the program opened with the
sounds of massed demonstrators chanting, “Hell no, we
won’t go,” and then a narrator Frank Babcock intoned;
“You are listening to a mob—angry, dissident, foul
mouthed.”
Babcock said the demonstrations were “a well conceived and deliberate act of civil disobedience and lawlessness” which their leaders had been planning as far
back as Nov. 16, 1967.
He quoted Jerry Rubin, a leader of the Youth International Party, or Yippies, in the Village Voice of that
date, saying the Yippies and other groups planned to
stage a confrontation during the week of the Democratic convention, Aug. 26-30.
“Bring pot, bring fake delegate cards
and also
football helmets,” Rubin said.
To further back up the city’s contention that the
demonstrations were a well-conceived plan to force a
confrontation, Thomas J. Lyons, the Chicago police intelligence director, cited a number of other statements
made by New Left leaders in nation’s press and the underground press.

world news

Czechs assured

PRAGUE—Alexander Dubcek, the Czechoslovak Communist party leader, assured the nation his liberal reform
program to “give a human face” to communism would
not be abandoned.
Dubcek, in a 40-minute television address, said he
had received assurances from Moscow and again in Prague
that Soviet and Warsaw Pact ocupation forces “will not
interfere in the internal affairs of the country.”
However, Dubcek warned that a series of repressive
measures must be carried out in order to bring about the
withdrawal of the Soviet troops.
“People are asking whether the Moscow agreements
are compatible with our post-January policy,” Dubcek
said. “I am confident there is no contradiction. On the
contrary, therein lies the way out of the solution to our
present situation.”
The Moscow agreements are the Kremlin’s demand
for “normalization” in Czechoslovakia in return for the
withdrawal of occupation troops. The “post-January” policy to which Dubcek referred is his program of liberal
reforms implemented after he succeeded old-line conservative Antonin Novotny as Czechslovak leader in January.
Dubcek said he wanted to assure “Czechoslovak citizens that, at home in their country, they have legal security and guarantees according to the laws of their country.”
“This is a question of principle, a question of sovereignty on which we shall stand firmly,” Dubcek asserted.
“The ’50s must not be repeated in any variation.”
“On this principle, I appeal to every patriot to whom

by Mark Schneider

You should be reading The Spectrum today in front
of Canisius College, the Statler Hilton or points in between while you greet the latest liberal “peace candidate,"
Hubert Humphrey, who is in town to talk to “the people’
of Buffalo. Of course, all Hubert’s “pqblic appearances”
will be closed to the public. If you as a taxipaying citizen
want to ask “your candidate” a question, forget it. As
the whole world found out in Chicago, your questions
count for nothing in this closed society, unless you’ve
cut yourself a piece of the power elite action. HHH will
address a largely militarist student body at Canisius,
local Democratic political hacks, and possibly a realtors’
or manufacturers’ group. If he talks in Lafayette Square
or on Jefferson Ave., he might met some people, who
might ask about the Emperor’s new clothes.
The radical left is not complaining about the Democratic Convention being closed, HHH being afraid to
talk in public, Gene McCarthy keeping silent, or George
McGovern supporting Humphrey. That the racist, imperialist and undemocratic practices of the two major
political parties continues is a surprise to no one except
perhaps to the sincere and dedicated kids who fought for
McCarthy, who thought they could turn the Democratic
party into a humane organization. The Chicago police
made quite clear to them what the left has known all
along; capitalist politics is not a matter of nice guys vs.
bad guys—it’s a mater of protecting vested economic interests and the world view and ethic which gives the
capitalist his self-identity.

All along, the left argued, McCarthy did not have
the program to end starvation, lack of medical care and
education; in short, the expolitation of the world’s people.
McCarthy was incapable of looking a Guatemalan peasant
or Harlemite in the eye and seeing that his look was the
same as that of a Vietnamese; that the same economic
system has kept Juan in his mud hut, Malcolm in his
ghetto.

The Third World is a tinderbox and it’s not because
we’ve had Goldwaters as Presidents. John Kennedy was
a liberal and he was instrumental in oppressing Latin
America. McCarthy never condemned the Alliance for
Progress for what it was: another attempt to milk the
world’s poor, by insuring that their economies depended
on the United States. The Alliance for Progress loaned
(not gave) money to Latin America at exhorbitant interest rates, with which it could purchase American finished
products at exhorbitant prices. The crying need of the
Third World is to develop its own industry and mechanized agriculture, and the Alliance deliberately thwarted
this. For big capital the Alliance was just another good
investment.
There is only one humane government in Latin America, and that is the one John Kennedy tried to destroy
with an invasion that finished for good the myth of humane liberalism. Fidel Castro has wiped out hunger, disease, unemployment and illiteracy in a land that abounded with it. He could make a profound human revolution
because he understood who his enemy was; the Yankees
who owned 60% of the sugar fields and the native sugar
barons, the Yankees who charged fantastic prices for
telephone and electrical services, the landlords, the imperialist oil companies who refused to refine oil bought
at a fair price from Russia. Eugene McCarthy does not
understand Cuba’s revolution, which is occurring in Vietnam today, and will occur in Guatemala, Bolivia and South
Africa tomorrow. He does not understand (or understands only too well) that as the imperialist United Fruit
Companies and their local fascist enforcers Duvalier,
Batista, Stroessner, Somoza are expelled, it is the American working man who is going to feel the pinch, whose
wages will go down whose prices up, whose surtax will
be extended, whose tax dollar will buy more guns to defend Standard Oil and less medicaid to help his mother.
McCarthy supporters who are truly concerned with
their own liberation and that of their fellow humans
will be back in the streets, and discussing world events
with their brothers on the left. The others will be busy
climbing the corporate ladder.

A proposal to waive the required student activity fee in

special cases was

unanimously

passed at the Student Coordinating

Council

meeting Thursday,

Jairo Estrada, Student Association treasurer, referred to students in programs involving “economic criteria”—SEEK, Upward
Bound, Urban Center and Experimental Admissions. Included in
the motion was the waiving of
the fee for those students enrolled for four hours or less,
upon request to the Bursar’s Office,

Mr. Estrada suggested: “A com-

mittee of students should be appointed by SA President Richard
Schwab to determine conditions
in also waiving the fee for special
eases.”
Five members of the Financial
Committee were approved by the
Council. Mr. Estrada applauded
‘'the fairness of the committee
due to the diversity of the suggested members”—A1 Poiak, economies major; Brigetta Sirp, a
transfer student from Corning;
Steve Milstein, past member of
the Financial Committee; Richard
Altasman, a first semester freshman and Pedro Bartok.

Petition criteria
Richard Schwab, Student As-

sociation president, opened the
council’s discussion on the recent
campus petition to abolish the
athletic fee: “This issue should
be debated openly in the polity
meeting. All implications cannot
be touched by just the coordinating council.” Barbara Bmilson,
Student Services Coordinator, contended that the real issue deals
with criteria for starting a petition leading to a referendum.
She moved that the SA Elections
Committee should establish criteria for a petition. The motion

Second vice-president Tracy
Cottone raised the issue of the
council’s voting in its own stipends with these substantiations:
"As compared to the old student
governing procedures, the polity
system necessitates much more
work for SA officers and coordinators,”

Stipends approved
“Furthermore, it was also passed
in the constitution by the student
body that financial matters shall
be decided by the coordinating
council. This would guard against
small clubs being repressed in
their request for funds simply because of their small representation at polity meetings.” With
seven affirmatives and two abstentions, the following stipends
were approved: president, $1000;

both vice presidents, $750; each
coordinator $200.
The council’s listing of polity
rules was passed unanimously.

Agenda for the first meeting,
Sept. 25, was also set up: polity
approval of polity rules, discus-

sion of athletic fee abolishment
and coordinator reports.

Student Rights
Fred Hollander, Student Rights
Coordinator, expressed hope for
a Student BiU of Rights composed
by volunteer students. “It is a
totally new idea,” he explained,
“and with no rules to follow, it
therefore is a hard job. Housing
discrimination is presently a big
problem due to race or just the

“I’ve written to the American

March, Dr. Anthony F. Lorenzetti’s Alcohol Review Board had
drafted a series of regulations
concerning the use of liquor on

At the present time, however,
neither the food service nor any

Under regulations presented by
the Alcoholic Review Board, students are presently able to consume liquor only

conditions, beer was served during a concert in the Fillmore

Due to the complexity of the

Joint work-study program
may be

offered to students

A proposal now before Dr.
Claude Welch, Dean of University
College provides for the implementation of a cooperative education program designed to give
students the opportunity to combine work and study periods. This
proposal offers students “a choice
of different kinds of coperative
education programs” and calls
for providing “an opportunity to
place the relevancy of learning
in step with events of the day.”

Transfer students are invited to attend small group discussions,
3:30 p.m. every Wednesday, in room 332, Norton Hall. Common interests and problems of transfer students will be discussed.

“The initial stage of the prowill be concerned mainly
with providing a link between education and employment,” said
Lucille Spahr, who submitted the
cooperative education proposal.

Persons interested in playing bridge or learning the game are
invited to attend the first meeting of the Bridge Club, 7:15 p.m.
Monday in the Millard Fillmore Room. Beginning Oct. 2, meetings
will be held 7:15 p.m. every Wednesday in the Norton Hall Card
Room. For information call Leonard Klaif at 832-9731.

Full-time students
She believes the program would
begin by offering students a
“field term” of one year. It could
be taken between the sophomore

affect the participant’s status as

Those wishing to earn money
for expenses would work in Buf-

falo. Students interested in travel
would be placed ip other cities

Ultimately the proposed program aims for alternating periods
of work and study. This alternating process would continue
through the student’s entire college

career.

Miss Spahr emphasized the necessity for faculty involvement:
“The faculty must be aware of
the student’s on-the-job experience and incorporate it into
classroom teaching. Without faculty commitment and communica-

good number of potential employers were interested in cooperative
education. Similar programs at
other universities have been recevied favorably by employers.
They found the students willing
and quick to learn. Many firms

would like the students to return

Hoping the program would become as flexible as possible, Miss
Spahr said; “It Should be geared
to what the student wants to do,
rather than try to force him into
a mold.”

�Parking facilities
present problems
Congested parking facilities on

8000
students wishing to park in 2949
campus have resulted from
spaces.

By Friday, 8000 Student parking
permits had been issued—however, these do not guarantee
spaces. According to Mr. Eugene
Murray, Chief of Security, the
permit is only a “hunting li-

cense.”

Faculty and staff face a similar
problem. There are 1923 parking
spaces provided for them and
4000 permits have been issued.
Although everyone having a
permit does not arrive on cam-

pus at the same time, congestion
exists in the parking lots. To al-

leviate this situation, the campus

police have been positioned at entrances and exits to direct traffic and handle other problems.
Parking permits must be obtained by the end of the first

week of classes. After this period, cars without permits are
subject to a $10 fine.
The permit system was established to benefit those using lots
by preventing unauthorized persons from using campus facilities.
Permits may be obtained in the

Faculty Senate may
be open to students
The Executive Committee of
the Faculty Senate has charged
the Student Affairs Committee to
act “as rapidly as possible” on
the pending issue of opening the
senate’s standing committees to
University students and non-faculty staff members.
The purpose of this action, ac-

cording to Dr. Thomas Connelly,
[executive Committee chairman,

is to “allow students in the decision-making process.” He feels
that seating students on certain
committees is “one of the ways
to involve them.” The extent of
the participation, Dr. Connelly indicated, would be the “right to debate and possibly to vote.”

He stressed that the move
would include not only students,
but also general staff members
of the University on the committees. He pointed out that the
Faculty Senate formerly was composed entirely of full professors,
and has since been expanded to
include associate professors. Dr.
Connelly described these actions

�Housing Opportunities Made Equal

HOME: ‘Every person has the right’
by Corydon Ireland
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Discrimination is as old as man. It began when Eve left
the Garden of Eden with three leaves while Adam had only
one. It still exists today. Belly dancers who have only one
leaf are required by law to have three.

If discrimination is as old
as man, then it is as old as
reason and the misuse of reason. Discrimination also
seems to be as inevitable as
intellectual progress.
Every new avenue of thought,
that is exposed, in the study of
human relations in particular,
theoretically makes for more and
newer ways to discriminate. The
patterns of public thought change
with the times, but discrimination is always there like an embarassing relative.
Not many years ago Lester
Maddox stockpiled ax handles to
be used on all the “niggras” that
dared to eat his whitemeat chicken. Today George Wallace wants
the Southern schools back from
the “National Republicans” so
they can be properly segregated.
Essentially these gentlemen say
the same thing. Progress demands
that people think of more graceful ways to say “I hate you.” That
is the only difference.
Discrimination always assumes
a disparity in human relations because of differences in race,
creed, brand of mouthwash or
what have you. As a result of this
assumption, discrimination has always merited—and received—a
reaction. For example, while the
Klanners lynched a black or two'

every Friday night, black people
reacted by making messes in the
back of the bus.

Violent reaction

Reaction to extreme discrimination is violent in one way or another, is sometimes desperate,
and nowadays often crosses sociological lines that would otherwise be uncrossable. Discrimination rouses people to action
through groups they would normally avoid. In addition it reactivates old associations that wduld
otherwise remain fallow.

A case in point is the new student group formed to combat the
shortage of student housing,
which is largely the result of community landlords who discriminate against students either financially (by raising prices) or actually (by refusing to rent). HELP
(Housing Eliminates Lots of Problems) has established a vital connection with the University OffCampus Housing Office. This has

reactivated an old student-administration association of which
many students have not been conscious for a long time.
Aside from the student housing
problem, discrimination is generally interpreted today in terms
of color. It is taken as a manifestation of the black-white polarity
in America and a result of white

backlash, black frohtlash and general social whiplash.
The Off-Campus Housing Office
has acknowledged the existence
of this kind of discrimination
with regards to living accommodations and has voiced its disapproval by making it mandatory
for landlords who appear on their
list to sign a “statement of nondiscrimination.”
This is as “violent” a reaction
to discrimination in housing as
bureaucracy and governmental
ties will allow, but it is a meaningful reaction when taken in
that context.

Housing is key issue

Other organizations are entirely
devoted to the alleviation of discrimination in local housing. One
of these is HOME (Housing Opportunities Made Equal), founded
as an Erie County organization in
1963. To them housing is the key
issue in the present struggle for
racial justice.
The first principle of HOME is
"... every person has
the right
to build, buy, or rent a home anywhere without restrictions which
are based on race, religion or national origin.” As written by
James Wallace, former president
of HOME, their activity applies
“particularly to members of the
Negro race.”
The reason for this particular
emphasis is evident: Blacks “are
limited in their opportunities to
obtain housing.” According to the
1960 census, 86% of the black
population lives in 11 of 177 census tracts in Erie County. This
limited supply of housing means
that the average non-white family
pays the same or more than the

average white family for housing
of manifestly poorer quality.
Limitations of housing opportunities also create de facto
school segregation, restricting educational and social opportunity.
The physical and sociological
ghettos that result from this lack
of housing and education also
serve as constant reminder to
black people of racial imbalance,
creating a potentially violent environment. Motivation among
blacks to better themselves is also impinged by the lack of housing opportunities, creating a perpetually corrupting environment.

No slogans or banners

Unlike many other organizations dedicated to one or all of
the facets of the civil rights question, HOME is not a deliberately
activist group. It has no slogans
or banners and it doesn’t march
in demonstrations.
Its primary functions are information, assistance and research
for the benefit of those who have
been discriminated against in the
field of housing. It provides a
contact person to each family
that wants help in purchasing or
renting a new home, and it provides information through workshops, written material and a
speakers program. Research
groups study and compile what is
being done in other areas of the
country and in Erie County.

Although it has no authority to
enforce the laws against discrimination, HOME keeps in constant

contact with those that do: the

State Commission for Human
Rights, the Licensing Division of
the New York Department of
State and the Federal Housing
Administration. It is a watchdog,
not a police dog. It does not have
the power of subpoena, but only
the power of influence by achieve-

ment.

Again by way of contrast,
HOME works quietly, behind the
scenes. Other local civil rights
groups, which have at least a peripheral interest in housing and racial justice (CAUSE, for example,
has a housing committee), have
an approach which gives them
more of an identification with the
New Left than does HOME.

Deliberate roadblock
For example, CAUSE, the local
white counterpart to BUILD, recently reacted to the Buffalo Common Council’s failure to enact a
more liberal housing policy by
suggesting that an open housing
march be held, a petition be circulated, and open housing bumper
stickers be printed. The suggested
petition read, in part: “TO THE
BUFFALO COMMON COUNCIL:
We accuse the white majority
seated amongst you of acting deliberately as a roadblock to progressive and humane lawmak-

ing

.

.

”
.

And in a Position Statement on
school bonds in the Buffalo Broadside, “a news sheet for community activists,” CAUSE remarked:
‘The racist nature of the Common
Council of Buffalo makes it apparent that members feel they
Stand to benefit from an cxplosion in the ghetto.” This is the
prose of the militant New Left.
It has little respect for precision.
The New Left approaches, screaming.

E. Ferry St. dwellings typify ghetto
misery and violence. HOME is one organization
aiding residents to escape.

With HOME the approach and
the quality of emotion it inspires
are entirely different. HOME does
not select areas for blacks to locate, does not select the people it
is to help, does not use a white

buyer to purchase for a black person, does not charge for any ser-

vice and does not test the law unless a specific complaint of discrimination has been made.
HOME does, however, get things
done.
Founded in 1963
In 1963, the year
founded, only two or
families would move

HOME was
three black
into an all-

in a year.
Only one major public official in
Erie County supported open hous
ing openly. Since then, HOME
analysis has shown that blacks
seeking to rent housing covered
by the anti-discrimination laws do
not encounter discrimination

more than one-third of the time.
And “Negro families in Erie

County today usually receive the

same treatment from real estate
brokers as white families.”
In 1966 HOME received a Lane
Bryant Award as one of the four
most outstanding community organizations in the country. Not

without reason. It is active in

open housing signature campaigns
and sponsored the first one in
Erie County. HOME, in connection

with its extensive research activities, has conducted a number of
area surveys to test public opinion
on integration, open housing and
similar issues. Its booklet, “Integration in Housing: Key Facts,”
is extensive and, unscreamingly
literate and precise.

Legislatively, HOME has joined
with other groups in supporting
the extension of present open
housing laws to include all types
of dwellings, even two-family occupied houses, which are most in
question. But as HOME stated in
a recent newsletter: “The law is
only the first step. For a law to
have meaning it must be enforced
by a combination of government
and citizen action.”

Progress with MHA
Another newsletter remarks:
“We continue to make progress
in our work with the Municipal
Housing Authority.” That is an
interesting story.
.

One member of the Authority—who hastened to say that she did
not represent Housing Authority
policy in her remarks—grimaced
at the mention of HOME. “That’s
a four-letter word around me.
They made us lower our standards. I objected to that stringent-

“We had a set of regulations
and qualifications for the people
we allowed into public housing.
They made us drop some of these.

People are accepted or rejected
by a board of project managers
which changes every six months.
They do not meet the person under discussion, but only examine
his record. Color is not an issue

here.
“HOME is a good organization.
Really and truly. But I don't think
they should have the power or authority to toll other people how
to run their businesses. But we’re
funded by the state and federal
governments, and if HOME were
to turn in unfavorable reports,
we’d lose our money.
“HOME has come out to help
the Negro only. It’s gone overboard. I detest organizations that
work stirctly on a color-line. It
just shouldn’t be. That’s discrimination.”

And that’s where I began. I’ll
end by saying that the kind of
discrimination that HOME represents is one of choice, not prejudice.

�Columbia
42 reinstated
moves to keep the peace
as

on the gym in Morningside Park,

by Doric Klein
Aut. City Editor

With the beginning of classes only a week away and
disruptions already beginning on campus, Columbia University has taken hasty steps to, “help to keep peace and ensure

order.”

Within the space of a week,
the University has requested
the courts to drop criminal
trespass charges against 400
students arrested in last
spring’s uprising, reinstated
42 students suspended for
taking over Hamilton Hall,
and enacted a new set of
rules governing student demonstrations at a general faculty meeting.
The dropping of trespass
charges was announced by Dr.
Andrew Cordier, acting president
of-the University, in a move recommended by trustees and faculty. Excluded from the act of
leniency are the 154 students arrested for more serious charges
such as resisting arrest and assault, including most of the leaders of the movement.
The University’s request for a
blanket dismissal of trespass
charges, however, was rejected
by the court on procedural
grounds. Each student must appear before a judge before
charges can be dropped, eliminating the possibility of clearing up
the matter before the start of
classes.

amplifying equipment, which
sparked off the first protests by
SDS, were lifted and the meeting
urged the administration to drop
all charges in the courts. A move
for general amnesty had been defeated at a previous meeting by a
vote of 240 to 160.
The new rules prohibit hindering access to buildings, creating
disturbing noise, threatening or
employing violence, demonstrating in offices and gathering in
corridors. Students violating
these rules may be subject to expulsion.
Future use of police will be decided upon by the president and
the Faculty Executive Committee
in cases where a demonstration
“poses a serious threat to the
orderly functioning of the University and cannot be promptly
terminated without police intervention.” In addition students arrested by the police will also be
subject to expulsion.

Proposed senate
The faculty will meet again to
vote upon the proposal for a University senate composed of 50
senior faculty members, 20 junior
faculty members, 10 students, seven administrators and five alumni. Also considered will be other
recommendations by groups of
trustees and alumni to give students a voice in “matters of special concern to them.”
All these developments come
after a summer of work on all
sides to ensure on the one hand,
peace and order on campus, and,
on the other hand, new protest
and change. After April 30, when
more than 1000 police were sent
in by President Grayson Kirk to
remove the several hundred students who had been occupying
buildings since April 23, Columbia College cancelled classes for
the rest of the semester. Groups
met informally in homes and on
campus and liberation schools

42 reinstated
The 42 reinstated students include only those arrested in the
second takeover of Hamilton Hall,
the building held by black students, and leaves 30 others, including Students for a Democratic Society leader Mark Rudd, still
suspended. Jhe 42 have been
censured, and their participation
in any further disruptive demonstrations will make them subject

to expulsion.

These selective acts of leniency
were heralded by some as first
steps toward reconciliation and
denounced by many students and
faculty members as “piecemeal
measures” designed to split the
moderate and radical groups.who
supported the strike and “pressure the radicals out of the University,” in the words of Philip
Lopate, chairman of the 700-member Alumni for a New Columbia.
The decision of the University
and of the courts are separate
matters, and the decision on the
400 will be “entirely within the
discretion of the court,” according to Frank Hogan, District Attorney prosecuting the cases and
a Columbia trustee. However,
since charges have been dropped,

opened nearby.

Kirk resigns
Four months later, Dr. Kirk
announced his resignation, hoping to clear the way for normal
operations in the fall. However,
the struggle had never been, as
a student put it, “a personal
thing between us and Kirk,” and
the new president, Dr. Andrew
Cordier, is a new face rather
than the spokesman for a new
attitude
The University has not agreed
to permanently halt construction

which separates the campus from
Harlem and was leased to Columbia by the city, although no
work is currently in progress.
Official ties between Columbia
and the Institute of Defense Analysis have been severed, but
no faculty members or administrators have renounced their individual ties to the IDA.

Studies sponsored by foundations and by the University to investigate the. uprising have been
conducted all summer. A group
investigating injuries inflicted by
police to students—there were
148 hurt in five buildings on one
morning—found that police underestimated the number of demonstrators and sent less than
the usual four to one police-student ratio calculated to minimize
any resistance. The official investigating committee did not include any students or community
people and was boycotted by the
more radical student groups.

Independent survey
An independent survey conducted by Dr. Allen Barton, director of the Bureau of Applied
Social Research at Columbia, indicated that 58% of the students
and 51% of the faculty approved
the major goals of the protesters,
based on a 50% return from a
fifth of the student body and the
entire faculty.
Many disapproved of the students’ methods, although 25%
participated
general support
doubled after the police were
called in. According to the report: “Both faculty and students

Poetry on iEmanon
As a special feature to promote local and University talent, WBFO is broadcasting a program

titled "Emanon." The show features poetry and
musical compositions by students and people from
the Buffalo community.
The works are performed by the authors or
students. Recent broadcasts have included poetry
by Dan Murray, a graduate student in the English
department, and -a discussion by Alan Deloach,
Gloria Malabenski and Dan Zimmerman, all poets
from the surrounding area.
Next Sunday Joel Katz will read his poem "Big
City Collage" and perform a musical composition
entitled "Improvisation" for the program.

"Emanon" is broadcast every Sunday at 6 p.m.
All students interested should contact Bob Jesselson at 831-3405.

2 artists will combine
free verse and music
A combined poetry reading and
jazz improvisation -will be presented in the Conference Theater
today at 3:30 p.m.
Featuring Gerry Olds and Michael S. Levinson, the program will
run in three segments. In the
opening segment Mr. Levinson
will read his poetry. Featured in
the remainder of the program
will be Mr. Olds’ bass accompaniment to Mr. Levinson’s reading.

The performance will be an
innovation, as the poems were
written according to a musical
phrase, in free verse. The jazz
improvisation will be played
around the same musical phrasing. This has never before been
done successfully.
These artists have recently recorded this type of reading in
New York. Their album is scheduled for release shortly.

Did your barber err?

faculty-student relationships are

better than they were.”
One of the remaining questions
is whether the more moderate
groups, such as Students for a
Restructered University, will
change their policy of unity with
the militant blacks and Students
for a Democratic Society, and
how many students will join in
the demonstrations planned for
the opening of school. The conciliatory gestures by the administration and the toughening of
disciplinary rules by the faculty
have this possibility in mind.
So far, no real split has developed and a crowd of 500 gathered to hear Mark Rudd, who declared: “What we started at Columbia will continue for a while
and then die out—but the whole
revolution is beginning.”

2 Albee plays presented

Theater

Reviewer

Rumors that the theater is ef-

fectively dead in Buffalo are
quickly being dismissed as menacing canards, especially in the
light of the current prolific and
promising endeavors of our
Studio Arena Theater.
Although the official season
does not begin until Sept. 24, the
theater is currently being visited
by the prestigious Theater 1969
Playwrights’ Repertory.
From

here the troupe will take its repertoire to Broadway; though that
in itself is not outlandishly im-

pressive.
Two plays by Edward Albee
were presented last week, “The
Story of Bessie Smith” and “The

American Dream.”
Bessie Smith is an allegorical
social criticism adopted by Director Michael Kahn and company. Although the full heights
of intensity are not reached by
the overall production the acting
should be commended. Lisle Wilson as the black orderly who tries
in vain to bleach his skin; Benson Terry as Jack, the pleading
desperate man; and Ben Piazza
as the teasing yet emotional intern—all are exceptional in their
supporting roles.
Rosemary Murphy heads the
cast and is remarkably natural
even with a long southern drawl.
She can switch moods and tones
of voice from dominating laugh-

ter to tears, whining to hysterics,
as if she were a radio tuner.

'Albee knows AI bee best 7
But ‘The Story of Bessie
Smith” is overshadowed by an excellent, memorable production of
Albee’s “The American Dream.”
The play itself is remarkable, but
for its impact to be felt it must
be put on by a carefully controlled yet expressive cast. Al-

knows Albee best as the saying might go, and his direction
has evoked near-perfect performances from bis actors.

Each character is competent in

handling the strangely humorous
lines and repartees. At the same
time they convey to the audience the significance and realism
of a message well beneath the
surface of the spoken word.
Donald Davis is Daddy, whose
snow-white stone face and computer-like monotone are sufficiently comic in themselves to
keep the audience happy and giggling all the night long. Sada
Thompson is a good Mommy as
she and Mrs. Barker (Carolyn
Coates) engage in what deceivingly appears to be highly refined and proper jabberwacky.
Mr. American Dream is played
by Stephen McHaittie who, though
certainly physically endowed for
the part, is slightly inhibited and

William Ritman and David
Zierk deserve mention for set design and lighting and for the two
crossed American flags which
hover and glow ominously over
the American dream.
“The American Dream” is at
once highly satirical, symbolic
and absurd and this production,
unlike others I have seen, amalgamates these things to result in
a stimulating and involving theater.

folk singer Tom Paxton in the Bennett auditorium

This last song was written by
the Gang as part of Mayor John
Lindsay’s “Give A Damn” project in New York City. Voicing
the campaign’s anti-apathy theme,
the song was picked up by the
top-40 radio stations and it became a commercial success.
The Gang started as a trio in
a Miami chicken-coop while seeking shelter from a hurricane.
They added lead guitar and vocalist Malcolm Hale, and percussionist John Seiter, alias the “Chief,”
who also sings. Geoffrey Myers,
who completes the present quintet, plays bass guitar and sings.
The gang-leader, Spanky, is
Elaine McFarlane, a chunky delight with a powerful and poignant voice. Her renditions of
“Buddy Can You Spare Me a
Dime” and “My Bill” have a
quality reminiscent of the torch
singers of the late ’30s.

Funky electric jug

Spanky’s outfit has an unusual
arsenal of musical weapons. Fortified with a funky electric jug,
washboard and tambourine, she
rolls with the group from one
musical domain to another with
transitional ease.
Another instrumental oddity
the Gang sports is an electric
banana, which is secretly a camouflaged kazoo.

Tom Paxton is an Oklahoma
born “topical” folksinger in the
tradition of Guthrie or Seeger.
In addition to being an accomplished guitarist, Mr. Paxton
writes most of the songs in his
repertoire.

Political gadfly
His songs range from light
pleasantries to the fields of civil
rights, militarism, narcotics, neoNazism, the Vietnam war and po-

litical satire.
He wrote such folk notables
as The Last Thing On My Mind,
I Can’t Help But Wonder Where
I’m Bound, and Victoria Dined
Alone. A noted political gadfly,
he digs the present administration with “Lyndon Johnson Told
the Nation.” Along the trail of
Ralph Nader, he refutes the safety of the automobile in “Detroit
Auto Safety Massacre Blues.”
A good guess says Tom Paxton
has a few choice ditties to deliver about Mayor Daley, the convention choices, civil disorder and
any other pertinent topic of the
current world scene.

University’s chapter of SDS
by Denni* Arnold and
Art Sapper
SpKtnm Suit JfoporMn

In the wake of heated debate
and the announcement of plans
to restructure its internal organization, Students for a Democratic Society held' its first fall

meeting Thursday.
Bill Mayrl, founder of this University’s SDS chapter, speaking to
an overflow audience of 500
people, outlined his plans to restructure the chapter as an SDS
organization and not return to
the conglomeration of organiza-

tions that it has been in the past.
He stressed his belief that the
Buffalo chapter of SDS can become effective only if it breaks
away from its former “crisis

orientation.”

This former type of orientation

allowed the fortune of the SDS

chapter here to wax and wane as
crises developed. This, in turn,
Mr. Mayrl indicated, caused leadership problems because membership and leadership were constantly shifting as crises developed or tensions relaxed.
To depart from this old system,
Mr. Mayrl described a new com-

mittee system which would concentrate and direct the organization’s ideas to gain their specific
goals. This new system was then
described in more detail by the
temporary chairmen of the several committees.
In the dorms the Liberated
Dorm Committee proposed to
form an independent, radical organization where it will set up
SDS tables and seek out complaints on housing and students’
political opinions and will organize student action groups.

Publicity emphasized
To coordinate SDS research
projects, to investigate the power
structure of the University and
the growth of fascism in the
United States the Research and
Action Committee was created,

that committee’s temporary chairman indicated. This committee

will provide the SDS chapter here
with appropriate information to
justify demonstrations—such as
one planned against Dow Chemical Co. recruiters Nov. 25.

formation of extra-campus
Left groups among high
school students and other persons in the Buffalo community.
In addition, plans have been
made for the Liberated Community News to become a permanent SDS newspaper.
To coordinate and plan SDS
demonstrations and activities, protect SDS members from possible
right-wing attacks and unwanted
SDS-police confrontations,
the
Tactics Committee was created.
This committee was, in part, a
direct result of an alleged right
wing attack on SDS members at
the Unitarian-Universalist Church
in August.
Bruce Beyer, a leader of the
Buffalo Draft Resistance Union,
told his audience that his organization would counsel eligible
males on the draft and would
otherwise help SDS oppose the
war in Vietnam and the draft.

The basic function of the Publications Committee is to work
in conjunction with other SDS
committees and publicize New
Left activities, make posters for
demonstrations and set up a
peace table in Norton Hall to
reach the student population. One
publication, entitled “Broadside,"
was specifically mentioned as a
method of maintaining a high
level of student consciousness all
year long on campus by publishing short articles carrying SDS
views on key issues.
Emphasizing the fact that the
University has no radical New
Left culture of its own, the temporary chairman of the Cultural
Events Committee set as his goal
the establishment of a New Left
cultural community at Buffalo
similar to those already existing
at Berkeley and Wisconsin.

Bill Mault, chairman of the

meeting, explained that this was
the only way to organize SDS into
a working organization, and that
this was the only way the meeting would be conducted.

Help the oppressed
Discussing SDS after the genmeeting, Mr. Mayrl and
“Speed” Powrie, another prominent SDS leader, summarized the
goal of Students for a Democratic
Society as “developing a University responsible to the students,
a University by the students and

eral

for the students.”
Giving his own description of
SDS in reply to the labels that
have been applied to it, Mr.
Mayrl explained that “SDS is a
socialist group. When we talk
about people controlling their
own lives, this is what we mean
by socialism. We are a left-wing
group and we feel that America’s
problems need a -leftist solution.
Whenever people are oppressed
by the System, SDS will try to
work with them.”
In response to a question about
the Democratic National Convention, Mr. Mayrl replied that “the
people working for McCarthy
were attempting to work from
within and they were cynically
sold down the river. We feel that
his defeat was inevitable within
the context of American politics.
SDS feels that this is a time for
a real left-wing solution and we
hope to expose the true nature
of American politics as nondemocratic.”
Asked whom SDS supports in
the November election, Mr. Mayrl
disclosed that “SDS is not supporting any candidate, local or
national. We feel that since the
people are not offered a choice
during this election campaign,
SDS will concentrate its efforts
on the nature of the American political system as such.”

Pop festival to feature
lectures and concerts
by Joseph Fernbacher
Spectrum Staff Reporter

From all comers of the world
is coming a new sound. It is the
sound of rook, blues and jazz; it
is now, and it is coming to the
State University of Buffalo.
Arriving on campus during the
week of Sept. 30 to Oct. 5 will be
some of the leading exponents of
this musical genre. In a series of
lectures and concerts an attempt
will be made to solidify the
meaning of the sounds we are
hearing daily through the many
medias: radio, television and
records.

On Monday, Sept. 20, the Chamber Brothers will perform in the
Fillmore Room. Originally elitist in the Gospel singing bag, they
have reversed their style, added
drummer Brian Kennan and set
out upon their journey into the
world of rock and blues. Their
latest single, “Time,” is already
high on the national charts.
On Wednesday, Oct. 2, again
in the Fillmore Room, an English
group called The Traffic will
grace the stage. Under the ex-

On Thursday, Oct. 4 in Clark

Rounding out the festival will
be such names as Eric Andersen,
John Hammond Jr. and the wild

�Iowa Cyclones corral Bulls, 28-10
by W. Scott Behrens
'Spectrum Sports Editor

AMES, Iowa —A home crowd of
close to 23,000 flans watched the
Cyclones of Iowa State University
hand the State University of Buffalo head football coach Doc
Urich his first opening game defeat since he set foot on the Main
Street campus three years ago.
The final score was 28-10.
It was the first girdiron meeting of the two teams.
The Bulls came here a bit puzzled about the Big Blight Conference team they were to face Saturday afternoon. The scouting reports brought out certain tacts
about the Cyclones, but the Bulls
didn't know what they were up
against because the host club was
under a new coach, Johnny
Majors.

Bulls still puzzled
The silence on the plane trip
back to Buffalo gave the impression that the Bulls were still
puzzled as to how the final score
turned out, since before the game
the Blue and White could boast
of such an explosive offensive
unit with the likes of co-captain
quarterback Denny Mason, tailbacks Kenny Rutkowski and Pat
Patterson, flankerback Chuck
Drankoski, and ends Dick Ashley
and Paul Lang all with previous
game experience.

A combination of factors is
the best explanation
which can be given for such an
upset—the Bulls were favored by
a touchdown in the pre-game
probably

ratings.

The Buffalo offensive line could
have reacted a lot better. Failure of the interior line to block
the incoming Cyclone defensive
unit forced Mason down with the
ball repeatedly.
The Bulls made several mistakes, but couldn’t seem to make
up for them, as die lighter—by
about ten pounds per man—and
more fleet-footed Cyclones capitalized on the Bulls’ errors. The
Cyclones also made mistakes, but
they seemed forgotten as the
B u 11 s’ attempts to capitalize
failed.
For example when the Cyclones
were penalized 15 yards for clipping, pushing them back to the
Bulls’ 40-yard line they bounced
back to gain 25 yards in three
plays. Iowa had another first and
ten situation on the Buffalo 15
late in the third period of play.

This drive was stopped, however,
as Bull linebacker Dan Martin intercepted a John Warder pass in
the end zone for a touchdown on
the first play of the final stanza.

Delay penalty hurts

A five-yard delay of game penalty to the Bulls in the middle of
their next drive halted' what

could have been the drive to tie
the game at 18-18.
The penalty erased a third-andone situation and thus halted the
threat.
The Bulls’ defensive unit was
not able to pull itself together.
Henceforth the passing and running attacks of the Cyclones were
able to move downfield with more
ease than expected.

Some bright spots
However, there were some
bright spots in the ballgame for

the Bulls.
Rutkowski was able to gain a
net of 40 yards rushing and
picked up 37 yards on eight pass
receptions. Lang finished the
game with five receptions good
for 77 yards, while Ashley picked
of two of Mason’s aerials for 25

yards.

Mason called signals from the

start, completing 15 of 23 aerials

for 139 yards.
Paul Jack averaged 37 yards on
nine punts.
Placekicker Bob Embow added
another field goal to his career
record which is now eight.

Interception costly
On the first play of the second
quarter, Warder handed the ball
off to Allen. The fleet wingback
went around right end on an inside reverse play and went the
distance to the goal line for the
home team’s second six-pointer
of the game. Skripsky’s placekick spun to the left of the uprights and the score remained 12-

However, Buffalo was able to

Bill would kill federal

Spoctrum

WASHINGTON—The House has
passed and sent to a Senate-House
conference committee the National Education Act of 1968,
which includes an amendment
that would require college administrators to cut off all federal
loans and scholarship aid to students who participate in college
disturbances “of a serious na-

ture.”
The amendment was tacked
onto a $5 billion federal Higher
education assistance program.
The bill reaffirms a bill passed
during disturbances at Columbia
in May. It was submitted in a
milder form but House conservatives demanded that the original,
which made it mandatory to shut
off aid to demonstrators, be

passed.
One-fourth

of undergraduates
in American colleges receive federal aid usually in the form of
National Defense Education
Loans.

College

administrators have

called the amendment a serious
blow to academic freedom. Rep.
William J. Scherle (K., Iowa) submitted the approved amendment
saying: “I can’t for the life of me
understand why the taxpayers
should be forced to finance Illegal
activities at colleges and universities.”
The vote on the amendment was
103-91. A few hours later the
whole education act was passed
259-147.
The Senate’s vote did not make
it mandatory to withhold money
from students but left It opened
as a prerogative to the college officials. Certain House members
say they will fight for the Senate
provision in committee. A major
difference between the two was
that the House called for a $5
billion college aid program over
two years, whereas the Senate
bill amounted to $13 billion over
four years.

Increased resistance urged

A time to examine
Investigations into the financial morass of the Intercollegiate Athletics program here are opening up a Pandora’s
box full of assorted naughties.
The once untouchable Athletic Department must be
thoroughly examined—and apparently it’s about time. Perhaps the State realized that to get involved in direct financial
support of Intercollegiate Athletics at this University would
be to get stuck in a quicksand of misplaced priorities and
jumbled vouchers.

To the editor:
This post year we have seen bombing “limitations,” Paris talks, a President’s “retirement,”
court cases, peace candidates—all hopeful needed.
Yet the killing continues in Vietnam, and the divisions in American society widen. And now we
are told that we must support Nixon to stop
Humphrey—or perhaps Humphrey to stop Nixon.

.

Students can not be expected to foot the bill for an
athletic program which devotes 60 per cent of its money and
an inestimable amount of its energy into building up a quasiprofessional football team. Having a big-time football team
here has meant having a big-time loser—in money, that is,
to the tune of around $100,000 a year.

Who made this original request for sidearms? Was it the
entire contingent of campus security officers, a representative group, a renegade faction, or the Chief of Security himself?
Were the “conditions” part of the original request, do
they reresent a watered-down version, or worse, so they contain dangerously ambiguous loopholes?
What prompted the request last fall? Was there a specific incident involving an armed Peeping Tom? Or were the
local security men getting increasingly uptight at the thought
of handling unpredictable confrontations between militant
students and various on-campus representatives of The System?
The Faculty Senate ad hoc committee is to be commended for calling Thursday evening’s open meeting to discuss these serious questions. It is also to be commended for
recognizing a potential conflict of interests in Chief Murray’s role on the committee—but who suggested that he be
put there in the first place?
The committee should be mistrusted, however, because
the request for sidearms has apparently been discussed for
at least a year, and it is only now that the need for student
input has been recognized; the committee should continue to
be mistrusted until students are included as voting members.
What can be the guarantee of student influence in this
matter on a campus where contingency planning calls for the
building of walled fortifications in administrative buildings?
Are not armed campus police the next logical step in such
a system?
We need campus cops, if for the only reason that they,
unlike Buffalo Police or state troopers, can be controlled by
elements within the University. But if students are not directly involved in deciding the exact nature of this control,
our campus may turn out to be—of all things—Pigs in
Sheep’s clothing.

HELP needs help
The housing hassle remains dominated by a disheartening motto: “I got my place—Now you get yours.”
Student pressure and participation is needed to prevent
the present crisis from worsening in future years.
Larger cooperatives can be formed, with an eye toward
getting reduced rental rates in hotels or apartment complex-

point of order
by Randall Eng

With the exception of sex, money is perhaps
the most emotional of all issues. At Thursday’s
meeting of the Student Coordinating Council, the
issue of stipends once again raised its ugly head.
Few students are aware that the officers of the
Student Association have traditionally received a
cash stipend. The president has received $1000
annually and the other officers $750.
Many students are dissatisfied with the manner
in which the Coordinating Council voted itself nearly $5000 in stipends. Threats of petitioning and
recall have been voiced. Confidence in the Student
Association has been apparently undermined by
this action.

Before anyone condemns the Coordinating Council for voting itself an appropriation, it is important
to look at other considerations. Officers and coordinators of the Student Association are elected
by the student body at large to assume many responsible duties.
Stipends are designed to compensate students
for the time lost in the performance of their duties.
Part-time jobs are impossible for those who hold
office. The stipends make it possible for students
to serve the University without being penalized for
their time.

Service to the University should not carry a
price tag, however. Student activities should not be
reduced to profit-making schemes. The officers of
several student organizations have been asking why
they shouldn’t receive stipends also. This is a very
difficult question because many officers justly deserve compensation for their efforts. The issue will
have to be resolved by the people dirctly involved
wiht the various activities. Personal integrity is the
guide to be followed in this matter.

Hayes Hall has benefitted from a recent architectural improvement. It seems that a new wall
has been erected to separate the excutive offices of
the administration from the reminder of Hayes.
An informed source also notes that stocks of food
have been placed in the executive offices. Could
someone be anticipating a siege?
Although the new partition in Hayes could be

leges can actually begin to handle the overflow.

Demonstrations: 76 °Jo soggy
To the editor:
Over the years it has been my opportunity to
observe many types of demonstrations: marches,
picket lines, teach-ins and other protest meetings.
These diverse activities, until recently, evoked only
great indifference on the part of most students—and rightly so. For the activities of the leftists are
indicative of their irrational hatred of any respon
sible, civilized institution or other form of established authority.

However, this student indifference toward radical activity has come to an end! It has been noted
by statisticians in a social sciences department that
during the past four years it has rained on 76%
of the days of demonstration.
Whether the cause of this phenomenon be Divine Intervention or not, we do not know. But this
spree of latter day rain dancing is a cause of con
cern for two reasons. One, the Days of Demonstration rain storms have of late become more torren
tial (as witness last Wednesday’s deluge); and two,
the Days of Demonstration are becoming more frequent.
To sum up, may I admonish the leaders of the
local left: Please sirs, hold fewer demonstrations
and hold them indoors.
P. Stephen Sickler

“sanctuaries” for resisters all over the country, and

Housing shortage jMgites UB
An increase in enrollment of students
from outside the Buffalo metropolitan
area has forced approximately 15% of
2,650 undergraduate resident students to
take an extra roommate in the State University of Buffalo dormitories. The rooms
were originally built for two occupants.
Recognition of the impending crowded
situation began in the spring when the
Inter-Residence Council held a lottery for
all upperclassmen wishing to remain in
the dorms. Some residents preferred to
find off-campus housing rather than risk
a tripling situation.

Mr. Thomas Schillo, Housing Director,
explained: “The lottery system tried to
please everyone by fair chance and therefore resulted in no dissatisfied students.
Transfer students were never promised
dorm space.”
Incoming freshmen were placed in regular double room accommodations in
order of acceptance and registration dates.

Mr. Schillo expressed hope that the
campus housing problem would be partially, if not totally, solved by the spring

semester.

Budgetary constraints
Mr. Schillo explained: “Budgetary constraints hold the lines for additional building on this campus. The University is presently doing all possible for students with
special problems, graduates and married
students.”
Looking farther into the future, the new
Amherst campus will provide for six residential colleges, each housing 400 students, and each affiliated with 600 nonresidents. The predominantly undergraduate accommodations will also house some
graduates, some married students, and

some faculty.
James Ryan, director- of the off-campus
housing office, indicated that determining
off-campus housing statistics is difficult
since only 25% report the success or
failure of their attempts to find housing

Students circulate petition
by Bill Scheurer
Spectrum Stall Reporter

Help! We the undersigned are concerned
with the drastic housing shortage confronting

Since the arrival of students for the
fall semester there has been a considerable amount of protest raised over the
lack of housing facilities for University
students. A grassroots movement has led
to the formation of a new organization,
HELP (Housing Eliminates Lots of Problems), which has been working to combat
the urgent housing crisis confronting the

University.

Petition tables have been stationed in
the lobbies of Norton Hall and Goodyear,
Clement and Tower dormitories. By Friday, 2500 signatures had been obtained.
The drive for HELP is spearheaded by
Jeffrey Kelton, a junior who was forced
to solicit door to door in search for an
apartment. Mr. Kelton says that overcrowded conditions at the University’s
Ailenhurst apartments and residence halls
nave forced Freshmen to live in lounges,
triples or even off-campus. He feels this
ts bad for
first-year students, and believes
that these dificulties will be even more
sharply felt by the 200 foreign students accepted here
this year.

Worst for transfers
is

Mr. Kelton indicated that the

problem

also serious for graduate students, up-

perclassmen and faculty members. He has
found it to be worst for transfer students,
who are denied any chance of living on

campus.
As he sees it, part of the trouble stems
from reluctance of area landlords tolease
to students. He said: “Most Buffalo' citizens are just not willing to rent to college students.” Mr. Kelton indicated that
legal aspects of this type of discrimination are being investigated by the GSA
(Graduate Student Association),
The basic cause of the University’s
problems with housing stems from the
budget policy of the State University of
New York administration in Albany,
which has prohibited the University from
buying or renting any additional housing
facilities. The State University of Buffalo’s request for funds to purchase an

additional block of apartments on Allenhurst was rejected by Albany two years
ago. No more appropriations will be available for supplementary housing until
April 1970. This leaves almost two years
of crowded conditions before the first six
colleges on the' Amherst campus are expected to be completed.

Makes suggestions
HELP has set up temporarA headquarters in the lobby of Norton Hqll where

additional volunteers are still nefcdud. It
is also running a bulletin board to aid
“displaced students” in finding housing.
Strong appeals are being made to commuters temporarily to take in boarders un-

til they are able to find a permanent resi

dence.

In addition to these immediate plans,
HELP is also making other short term
plans for the coming year.

Some of HELP’S suggestions are
• The University should purchase flats,
apartments and houses to lease to students.
• Temporary facilities should be built
at the new campus site and bus transportation should be provided for students.
•
Off-Campus Housing Office activities
should be extended to canvassing and advertising, which would seek out living
quarters instead of merely waiting for
them.
• Hotel
rooms should be temporarily
rented for “displaced students” who have
been accepted here and then find themselves without a place to stay.

Proposals aired
At an informal planning meeting held
in the Tower private dining room Friday
the possibilities of having student co-ops,
such as those at the University of Toronto, were discussed. A fact finding
committee was appointed to look into the
matter of hotel rentals. It was noted that
State University College at Buffalo once
leased two floors of the Statler Hilton
Hotel and D’Youville College rented part
of the Peter Stuyvesant Hotel last year.

under the direction of that office. Since
August 1, 1400 requests have been made
through the office which deals mainly
with undergraduates.
Mr. Ryan, defining the problem, claimed: “There are definitely enough apartments and rooms, but distance and price
in relation to each individual student is
most important.” He added; “The offcampus housing office has remained open
seven days a week since Aug. 26, and will
do so until the demand ceases. Also,
advertising in local and suburban newspapers continues to obtain varied facilities
in addition to the 1800 listings presently
kept.”

Foreign students a problem
Housing foreign students is especially
difficult. Not only are there language and
culture barriers, but 75% of them are
graduate students. Once admitted by department heads, the student assumes individual responsibility for housing. Joseph
Williams, director of Foreign Student
Affairs, said: “Foreign students are required to register a week early so that
housing needs may be discussed and
solved as soon as possible.”
Early stages of the problem are remedied when the foreign student knows
someone of his own culture to help him
find a suitable place to live or families
whose homes facilitate only temporary
housing. Louis Post, administrative assistant to Mr. Williams, commented on community attitude: “At critical points, landlords often raise the rents of even furnished rooms when they know supply is
low and demand is high. However, generous response was given to recent TV
and radio advertising. A big problem is
the lack of necessary pre-rental facts such
•as financial means relevant to transportation costs.”
Of the little more than 200 foreign students enrolled, 190 have been housed, 15
on campus as undergraduates.

Faculty Senate resolution
reopens UB to recruiters
The State University of Buffalo campus is again open

to recruiters from all military and commercial concerns.
The Faculty Senate passed a resolution May 14 reopening
the campus to the military after barring them for the
spring semester.
A result of prolonged de-

bate, t h e resolution comprised the first formal statement by the senate on the
issue.

The resolution was intended to
protect students from “falling victim to existing differences of
opinion between independent
branches of the government and
to the resulting confusion about
the effect and consequences of
protest activities.”
Confusion earlier resulted from
by Selective
Service Director Lewis B. Hershey to local draft boards that
interference with military recruiting constitutes a violation of
the Selective Service Law which
should be punished by immediate
reclassification and induction, and
reactions to this recommendation
from the White House and Justice Department which, according to the resolution, “condemned
the practice of withdrawing deferments as punishment for protests
and demonstrations.”
a recommendation

Right to protest affirmed
In essence, the resolution states
that the faculty will allow military recruiters on campus as long
as the students’ rights to dissent
are protected, but “if these rights
should be jeopardized . . . such
recruitment on this campus will
be discontinued.” It further declares that “those students who
choose to emigrate and/or go to
jail rather than participate in
military service, shall maintain
all credits,, status, and privileges,”.
The position taken by the Faculty Senate in its resolution does
not suggest any change in University policy, but is merely a reaffirmation of previous policy.
The campus was closed to the
military for the spring- semester
following Gen. Hershey’s statement on punishment for protesters. The Faculty Senate acted
after it seemed that local draft
boards were not taking action on
the Hershey memorandum.

None here first semester
Although the campus is open to

all recruiters, there will be no
military recruitment during the
first semester. Among the private
firms which will recruit on campus this fall is the controversial
Dow Chemical Co., scheduled for
Nov. 25. A bulletin containing a
list of the companies slated to recruit, and their dates, will be
available Sept, 19 or 20.
The University Placement and
Career Guidance Office makes the
/ arrangements for recruiting on
campus by both the military and
private companies. That the campus has in the past indeed been
open to recruiting was emphasized by Mr. Laurence Srnith, director of the agency,, when he
remarked that, “the University
Placement and Career Guidance
Office has always operated under
the concept of an open campus.
The Faculty Senate ruling does
not indicate a change of operating policy but actually reaffirms
our position.”

In no way will the resolution
interfere with the rights of protesters to demonstrate peacefully
against military and job recruiters, but it is intended to protect
the interests of both adherents
and opponents of campus recruiting.

WASHINGTON—The top-level governmental battle over whether Vietnam War
protesters should be drafted as punishment has flared again with the Justice
Department aiming new criticism at Selective Service Director Lewis B. Hershey.
It said such reclassifications are not
only illegal, they may be unconstitutional
as well.

In a painfully polite but unusually detailed brief, the department said local
draft boards have illegally reclassified
some war protesters by ordering their inductions.
In a step unusual for government legal
briefs, the Justice Department outlined
Hershey’s views on the question, then
disputed them.

“It is difficult to believe that Congress
intended the local boards to have the
unfettered discretion to decide that any
violation of the act or regulation and induction, regardless of its relationship to
the individual’s status as exempt or deferred or whatever,” the brief said.
The department’s brief to the Supreme
Court dealt specifically with the case of
James J. Oestereich, a Cheyenne, Wyo,,
theological student who has been ordred to report for military service after
turning in his draft card at an antiwar

Pravda attacks Britain
MOSCOW

—

The Soviets have charged

that Britain was reviving the cold war
and risking its “great power prestige”
by dispatching Foreign Secretary Michael
Stewart to idependent-minded Communist
Romania.

An attack on Britain in Pravda, the

Communist party organ, and other Soviet

reports reflected a tone of impatience with the failure of Czechoslovakia,
Romania and other countries to accept
the Soviet military intervention in Czechoslovakia.
press

The Pravda editorial, indicating it came
from high party echelons, disclosed to
Soviet readers for the first time that
Britain cancelled a wide range of cultural
exchanges and was “close to breaking
normal relations” with Communist nations in displeasure at the invasion.
Pravda said Stewart was visitig Romania, which had been outspoken in its

criticism of the Warsaw Pact troop intervention, because Britain “had decided to
play-.into the hands of Bonn.”
Pravda

said Britain would be short-

sighted if it “breaks up with the countres of the socialist community and starts
interferring in their internal affairs.”

“The leaders of Great Britain are sad. .
dling the old horse of anti-Sovietism
advocated long ago by Winston Churchill,”

Pravda said.

Mirroring a continued sense of frustration, the Soviet press admitted that large
sections of the public in Czechoslovakia as
well as abroad remained unconvinced that
“open counter revolution” had threatened
Czechoslovakia and the socialist bloc.

The Moscow newspapers criticized "some
Czechoslovak press organs” for “continuing to repeat the imperialist propaganda
about the force of arms” used in the
invasion.

...and in Czechoslovakia
PRAGUE
Alexander Dubcek, the embattled Communist party leader of Soviet
occupied Czechoslovakia, has little time
to eat these days except for an occasional
salami sandwich, the newspaper Svoboda
—

reported Sunday.

The newspaper quoted his unidentified
chauffeur as saying Dubcek’s “only problem is his diet and meals.”
“There are plenty of times when you
don’t feel like eating too much, especially
during these past few days,” the news-paper quoted the driver as saying. “He is
a very hard-working man.”
The chauffeur denied published reports
abroad that Dubcek was beaten by Soviets
after they seized him from party Central
Committee headquarters. The driver said
Dubcek “was exhausted, tired, but one
can’t speak of wounds or anything like
that” after he returned from negotiating
with the Russians in Moscow.

In Moscow the Soviet Communist party

newspaper Pravda said the Czechs must do
more than clean anti-Soviet slogans off

the wall to achieve withdrawal of Warsaw
Pact troops. It said many Czechs do not
yet have a “correct understanding of the
essence of the process of normalization.”
Pravda defined normalization as the
complete exposure and rout of right-wing
anti-Socialist forces, an end of their influence on the young and the resolute
strengthening of the guiding role of the
Communist Party in the entire life of the
country.
The Czechoslovak radio home service
broadcast an editorial in the Slovak newspaper Pravda urging the people to accept

censorship as “an indispensable means to
achieve the withdrawal of foreign troops
It complained that censorship created
special difficulties for journalists in asking
they use non-committal formulations and
words. The term “occupiers” for example
is banned when referring to foreign forces
in Czechoslovakia.

�Common Council reconsiders campus releases
middle school bond programs
«r

by Peter Simon
City Editor

The, Buffalo Common Council will reconsider its earlier
defeat of two middle school bond resolutions today at its
2 p.m. meeting in City Hall. The middle school program is
considered vital to the Board of Education’s policy of school
integration.
July 25, the Council defeated

School, and anomer $380,000 for
planning four other middle
schools. Ten of 15 counoilmen
must cast affirmative votes for
each individual issue to pass.

Storm of protest
The defeat of the bond issues
set off a storm of protest from
civic leaders and organizations.
No less than 15 such organizations have protested the action,
charging the Council with obstructing the Board of Education
in its attempt to carry out its
state mandated obligation to provide “quality integrated education” for Buffalo schoolchildren.
Many critics have agreed with
contentions by Superintendent of
Schools Dr. Joseph Manch and
Negro Councilman Delmar Mitchell that the real issue is opposition to integration of the city
schools by the minority of coun-

The planned middle schools
would accomodate children from
grades five through eight. Each
of the schools would be built in
predominantly white residential
neighborhoods and would draw
1,000 children from that neighborhood. An additional 500 children
would be bused in from the inner
city.

Work on the West Hertel Middle School began in March, 1967,
and has continued at a reduced
pace since the initial vote on that

cilmen who defeated the resolutions.
These councilmen claim, how-

ever, that race is not the issue.
They site the high cost of the
middle school program as one
reason for their opposition. They
also point out that the West Hertel school was originally designed
as a junior high school serving
only the northwestern section of
the city, and that this plan was
changed “in midstream.”

Five councilmen—Republicans
Mrs. Alfreda Slominski and William Lyman, and Democrats Raymond Lewandowski, Gus Franczyk and Gerald Whalen—voted
against both middle school bond
issues in July. They were joined
by Republican William Buyers in
voting against the West Hertel
school resolution and by Democrat Carl Perla Jr. on the planning resolution.

A special Council meeting Aug.
6 made it legally possible for the
Council to reconsider the middle
school issues today. The special
session was requested by Mayor
Frank A. Sedita.

Groundbreakin in Amherst

College construction to begin
Groundbreaking ror the first
six colleges of the new Amherst
campus will take place Oct. 31.
Construction will then begin on
what has been termed a “total,
real-learning environment.”

Thomas Craine, director of Architecture and Planning, described the structure of the colleges and its relation to the future student population. “The
physical structure will be flexible
enough to allow each college to
have its own tone, its own personality,” he said. Mr. Craine added that the “type of personality
each college will have depends on
the student population.”

vide opportunities for small group
experimentation in social settings,
Mr. Horton explained. The drama
workshop would be highly flexible, with seating and a moveable
stage.
Other facilities planned for the
first cluster include a swimming
pool and a large lecture hall.

the master’s residence.
Mr. Craine described the innovative facilities that will be found
in each college. Study carrals will
be wired with cables, giving flexibility for audio-visual equipment,
much of which will be experimental. Libraries will also be located in each college, along with
seminar and classrooms. Almost
all faculty offices in the colleges
will have access to computers.
He indicated that commuter
students “will have space provided for them. This will integrate commuters into the ‘livinglearning experience.’ There will
be 20 rooms in each college for
commuters to stay overnight, or
for a few days.”
Mr. Craine explained that the
first cluster will be finished in
1971. “We have received input
from all over. The plans are a
translation of desires of the academic planners and the philosophy of the developers.”

Mixing desired

A great attempt has been made
to “resolve the problem of the
students staying with their own
kind—engineering students staying together, and so on,” Mr. Hor-

ton indicated.

“

To alleviate this

problem, each college, which will
house 400 residents and 600 com-

muters, will include all types of
students and faculty. “The ideal
state would be mixing of students
from all disciplines,” he commented. In this way “students,
graduate and undergraduate, and
faculty will mix,” he said. Also
housed in each college will be
some faculty offices, along with

The physical properties of the
first cluster of colleges, as outlined by Walter Horton of Architecture and Planning, include
several innovations that have never been attempted here. Each college will be a complete living,
study and recreation area. In addition, each college will contain a
special facility which may be
used by all students.

Auditions for the Men's Glee Club and Women’s Chorale will be
held from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday. Monday
through Wednesday the auditions will be held in room 266, Norton
Hall, and Thursday in room 330. All students, including graduate
students, are welcome.

The Ippon Judo Club is giving classes in judo in the apparatus
room of Clark Gym. Self defense for men and women will hold Mondays from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Beginning sport judo will meet Thursdays
from 7 to 8 p.m. Advanced sport judo will be held Mondays from 7:30
to 9 p.m. and Thursdays from 8 to 9 p.m.
Beginners should wear a sweat shirt and slacks.

The first in a series of lectures to try to establish the essential
connections between the usually isolated aspects of Roman culture
will be presented at 4 p.m. today in the Conference Theater. Oliver H.
Palmer, authority on Latin poets of the Augustan period and Professor of Humanities and Chairman of the Department of Classics at
Stanford University, will speak.

All full-time undergraduates at the State University of Buffalo
will be charged an $18.50 fee for insurance coverage for the fall
semester. Graduate students may elect this coverage if they wish.
Election forms and waivers must be signed at the Bursar’s office no later than Sept. 2d.
With the cross-country season fast approaching, all candidates
interested in going out for the team are advised to report today at
4 p.m. to the basement of Clark Gfym. Both freshmen and varsity are
eligible.

Anyone interested in indoor track is also advised to contact Coach
Fisher in the intramural office as soon as possible.

�It happened in church
Editor’s Note
On Aug. 7, Bruce
Beyer and Bruce Cline took "symbolic
sanctuary” from the draft in the Unitarian
Universalist Church at 695 Elmwood Ave.
Having refused induction, the two would
stay at the west side church, with the permisson of the congregation, until federal
officials came to arrest them.
—

On Aug. 19, federal marshals, FBI agents
and Buffalo policemen did come. A clash

occurred between these officials and BeyerCline supporters.
Besides the arrests of Mr. Beyer and
Mr. Cline for refusing to report for induction, Mr. Beyer, as well as seven others,
was arrested for assault. One person was
later released, and another was charged
later.

Staff

Reporter

Not long ago it came as a shock to me
that even newspapermen are fallible. From
childhood I had been raised on a steady,
unassuming diet of Jackie Gleasons, John
Kennedys and Walter Cronkites. The/first
joked about the news, the second made
it, and the third told it to people. This is
the truth-virginity of childhood. It is imagined in straight lines and it has heroes.
Truth-virginity is simple and it asks no
questions, but in people who read newspapers it is a dangerous phenonmenon.
To lose one’s truth-virginity is riot a
simple matter, as it is with other kinds.
It is a matter of acquiring a broader sense
of perspective by developing a greater
number of sources. It is reading Peanuts
as well as Pogo and it is watching Billy
Graham as well as Peyton Place. I lost
my truth-virginity last fall in Washington,
D.C., at a small rally at the Lincoln Memorial on the day after the march on the
Pentagon which I was there to write
about. During the rally a mike was passed
around and people read from their favorite examples of distorted reporting. Everyone laughed. When things are so serious and uncontrollable the only thing
left to do is laugh.
But I had just lost my truth-virginity
at the hands of the “Washington Post.”
How would I ever look Walter Cronkite
straight in the tube again? All doubt is
self-perpetuating. I’ve been doubting the
news ever since, whatever its source. This
means I analyze it now. For example;
what- really happened at the UnitarianUniversalist Church last August when nine
people were arrested for assaulting officers of the law, who were there to arrest
two draft protesters? Better, who was arrested and what are they really?
Nine people were arrested for assault
because of the incident at the church. One
of these, Bruce Beyer, was also arrested
for resisting the draft. His partner in this
Symbolic resistence, Bruce Cline, was not
charged with assault. In fact, as he was
being hustled out a side exit by federal
officers, Cline begged the men scuffling
at the podium inside the church not to
hurt Beyer. When asked to comment on
the assault charges placed against the
others, Mr. Cline declined.

Military backgrounds
Six of the eight arrested for assault
have military backgrounds of one kind or
another. Bruce Beyer is one of these. From
1960 to 1963 he attended Manlius Military
School, one bf the leading prep schools for
West Point. While he was there he attained the rank and honor of Platoon
Sergeant. Mr, Beyer transfered to Bennett
High School in his native North Buffalo
and graduated from there in 1966. He
then attended Paul Smith College in
upper-state New York for one year. He
majored in English and has since taken
courses in literature at Boston University.
After his stay at Paul Smith, Mr. Beyer

A second defendant in the assault cases

was once a company commander, honor
guard commander, drill instructor, and
physical training leader in his high school
Army R.O.T.C. program. He is Carl Kronberg, 22, who attended Nicholsenn High
School in Chicago
“a real solid middleupper class school.” Graduating in 1964
he studied at City College of Chicago for
a year before transferring to State University of Buffalo. Mr. Kronberg is a history
major, although he is more comfortable
saying he is just in “Arts and Sciences.”
His comment on the incident at the
church shows how very deep those company commander stripes must be buried
in the Good Will bag: “The assault in the
church [referring to the policel is a new
escalation against the anti-war movement.
They did it out of fear of the new mili—

tancy that the movement has taken on.
This has developed into a struggle to free
black America and a struggle against
American imperialism. New tactics are
called for on the part of the anti-war
movement.”
“That on or about the 19th day of August, 1968, in the Western District of New
York, Gerald Gross did forcibly assault,
resist, oppose, impede, and interfere with
Alexander T. Szabo . . . ”. So reads one
of two counts for assault against Gerry
Gross. The other count is orchestrated
with the same verbs, but the name at the
end is different. It reads, “. . . Lee Mason
Eidson, Special Agent of the FBI . .”
.

"Frame-up"
The charges placed against him led Mr.
Gross to comment: “The whole thing is a
frame-up in my opinion. The police deliberately attacked and physically assaulted. those taking part in a peaceful demonstration against the war in Vietnam and
the draft. They trapped us in a hallway
as part of a pre-arranged plot by police
to arrest the militant leaders of the antidraft movement in Buffalo. It is an example of political police terrorism. The
FBI have to be understood as political
cops.”
And those have to be understood as political remarks from a very politically
oriented student. Besides being a member
of the Philosophical Society of the University, Gerald Gross is chairman of the
local branch of Youth Against War and
Fascism, a member of the SDS, and part
of the Martin Sostre Defense Committee.
A 1962 graduate of Kenmore West High
. School, he majors in both philosophy and
math. He works as a stock clerk in a
local supermarket.
Accounts in the local newspapers of the
incident in the church and of the court
proceedings following it, list Mr, Gross’s
occupation simply as “stockboy.” He is a
stock clerk
no semantic punch there
and he is also a student.
In the same way the papers would have
the normally unaware, truth-virginal newsppaer reader believing that Raymond Malak, another defendant in the assault cases,
is only a cab driver from Mill St. He is
that and more. In this case the press has
sinned by omission. Not only is Mr. Malak
honorably a cab driver from Mill St., but
he is also a married man, a junior in good
standing in the good standing in the University’s English Department, and an Air
Force veteran who served four years with
Intelligence and, I am sure, with intelligence.
Still another defender, Tom O’Connell,
volunteered for the U.S. Army and served
for three years. A 1963 graduate of Clarence High School, Tom was in the Medical
Corps as a lab technician and served for a
time in Turkey. In July of 1967 his brother
was killed in Vietnam.
Tom is enrolling as a freshman at State
University of Buffalo this fall (“I hope I
can get into English.”). Since his return
to Buffalo he has associated with the
Draft Resistance Union of Buffalo, although in no official capacity. He con—

ciriprs
,a

m and became avidly interested in the

anti-war movement. In September of that
same year he joined the Resistance in
Boston. Finding this a worthy cause, Bruce
became active in the anti-war movement
in Buffalo. His commitment to his own
beliefs on the immorality of the war and
'he injustice of the Selective Service System climaxed in his appeal for symbolic
sanctuary at his family church after he
bad been served with his second induction notice. Refusing to comply, he was
arrested on Aug. 19th. He is currently out
on bail. Mr. Beyer is 20 years old.

through economics to philosophy (“There
are some questions that I need the answers for”). Attracted by the New England

~~

Resistance in the past year, Bill looked
into the Buffalo movement when he came
back for the summer to work.

’Trumped-up charges
He claimed he was arrested outside
the church as he ran alongside a crowd
that had formed as Bruce Beyer was
being carried out of the sanctuary. According to Berry, the assault charges were
trumped up (“I didn’t touch anyone”). He
feels he was arrested because his name
was on file for having burned his draft
card last April 3 in the Boston Common.
Given the general thesis of this article,
Mr. Berry’s reactions to the press accounts of the church incident and the
court scenes are comforting. His reactions are balanced and critical. He commended the Buffalo Courier-Express, as
Mr. Beyer did, although that paper “... did
not say it quite how it was.” He thought
the incessant sneering by all the conventional news media at “long hair, beads,
and sandals” was quite irrelevant.
Tom O’Connell also intimated that the
entry through the front door by officials
was logistically unnecessary. “The feds
could have gone in that side door. They
knew it was there. They wanted to beat
somebody up. And the fact that they got
Gross shows that they wanted to get some
of the leaders of the movement in Buffalo.”
Mr. Berry just recently received permission to go back to school. Ordinarily
out-of-state travel is forbidden for defendants in similar circumstances. He is
to be married this month.
James McGlynn, a Vietnam veteran, and
Richard Dee Rose are also charged with
assault. They were not available for com-

ment.

U.S. Attorneys Andrew Phelan and
Thomas Kennelly were not available for
comment on the statements of these defendants.
A spokesman for the Federal Bureau
of Investigation declined comment, since
the cases of those arrested for assault are
still pending.

Eight individuals
The men in these stories are individuals.

They have different reasons for having
been at the same place Aug. 19. Any attempt to batch them into any one bag or
fult would be an injustice to their individuality as people who think, and act
accordingly. The unity they possess is
emotional. To catagorize them politically,
except to say that they are all left-wing,
would be presumptuous generalization. To
catagorize them visually, even by shallow
and prejudiced intimation as the press did,
would be silly simply because they all
look different. Beyer looks like a college
athlete. At 6 feet 1 inch O’Connell is
“shorter,” strapping—big and always well
dressed. Gerry Gross is short and crewcut
with a smile like a first-year bank clerk.
No matter how cases of this type are
dressed up by either side for the sake of
self-justification, the dressing up is still

done with words and catch-phrases which
in themselves are basically meaningless.
Words are words and can only serve to
suggest the rough color or outline of a
message, leaving plenty of space for personal bias, generation gap and cultural
differences to take the better hand.
Someone said that violence is the language of the inarticulate. If there is nothing to say or no way to say it between
two groups, then violence can be expected
as the last resort of the resultant frustration. And violence is orgasm. It is the
most basic momentary purge of the burden of intellect that our animal nature
can offer in destructive terms.
A person is inarticulate only when he
cannot communicate with another. He is
never inarticulate with himself. But he is
inarticulate when the relation lacks definition and when the words and terms and
feelings used lack definition. Without definition, that is, without an explanation
of terms in the language of another, there
is no communication. There is only, in the
end, violence.

*

Superficiality
It may seem innocent, sneering fun
enough to employ all the latest smears,
the hippest epithets to the group that is
farthest away politically or generationally. It must have been easy for a reporter
to use a phrase such as “so-called individualistic” or to mention that Bruce Beyer
was shoeless before mentioning the blood
that was all over his shirt. In the same

way the Liberated Community News teems
with slick, easy phrases like “gross example of repression” or “viciously attacked,” I question no one’s motives, only

the extremism and quick superficiality of
their methods.
Their methods are religious. That is,
they are “guided at every critical point
by the determination to defend a faith,
not by an interest in factual understand(Max Eastman). This is religion
ing . .
in its most technical sense and in its most

sociologically applicable sense.
Religions can be defined three ways.
The “high religions” respect the principal
of love. Sir James Frazer calls the most
modern religions, that is, the most theologically developed religions, the “high religions.” He lauds them as the hope of all

modern intellectuals. Yet love cannot be
be attained by intellectual pattern-making
or theologizing.

What Frazer calls the high religions are
which draw their
essence from the “middle religion” type.
A “middle religion” is one which respects
the principle of law or justice. Government then, regardless of its bent, is religious, The FBI, in the case of the incident at the Unitarian-Universalist Church,
acted as executors of the religio-govemment. “Thou art a Rock, J. Edgar Hoover,
and upon this Rock I will build my
church . .
Primitive religions (“low religions”) are
characterized by their respect for the
“principle” of power. Fear is the worshipmotive, not respect for justice, nor love
of love, as the other religions would have
actually those religions

This is where we stand. Fear of power
and desire for power are most basic to
us when language fails. When language
and communication fail between interest
groups, religion begins. When religion
begins, as it has faith begins. And with
faith comes anti-faith. And with this polarization comes paralysis.

“to-

“the immorality and illegality of the war”
that led him to the Left.
As for the accusation of assault on his
part, O’Connell’s answer was direct: “I
was arrested for being down there in
support of the two Bruces.” Tom is still
subject to indictment by the Grand Jury.
William Berry, also arrested for sasault, graduated from Kenmore West High
School in 1965. In his studies at M.I.T.,
Bill has breached the spectrum of majors
by moving from physics (“I wanted to be
a scientist when I got out of high school”)

�‘Paint-in’ is planned
to open new center
Buffalo’s East Side community
will be introduced to a new Jefferson Education Center Sept. 14

and 15 at a “paint-in” at its 1203
Jefferson Ave. location. Volunteers will be able to bring brushes
and rollers on those dates to help
prepare the center for its official
opening Sept. 22.

The center is the latest and

largest of the Storefront Education Information Centers’ projects which began with the Woodlawn Education Information Center and two other Storefronts in
the area. They are designed to
offer neighborhood residents information about opportunities in
higher education, provide educa-

tional services of many sorts, and
give the University’s law school
project, the Ombudsman, a neighborhood office.
Present planning, along with
those programs includes a satellte studio for WBFO—FM, the
University’s radio station; a legal
internship project run by the law
school, medical and dental information, and opportunities for
new programs to be initiated. Response to community needs has
been the key philosophy of the
project.

Legal interna
The new legal internship project will be handled mostly by

senior law students, although
other law students may help. An
application has been made by the
law school to enable third year
students to appeal cases. At this
time, however, students will be
mainly concerned with teaching
legal responsibilities to the underprivileged community. Information concerning such areas as
housing rights will be explained
to people in the community. Referals will be made in cases requiring the services of a public
defender, legal aid, the better
business bureau and other agencies of which people may not be

aware.
Home problems may be dealt
with by neighborhood aids. However Mr Gordon Edwards, director of the Cooperative Urban
Extension Center, said: “I strongly doubt that law students will
become involved in home life due
to the legal ethics. Most of the
work of law students will be
centered around the office.”

Radio communication is goal
Meaningful two-way communication resulting in better interracial understanding is a basic
goal of the WBFO satellite. Reporting adequately on race relations and slum problems, acting
as a communications medium for
organizations working to improve

conditions on the East Side and
near the West Side and enabling
area residents to air their feelings and grievances in order to
speed corrective action afe some
of the ways that WBFO hopes to
achieve its goal.
Bill Siemering, program director of WBFO, commented; “The
problem is one of attitude and
communication. The attitude of
white racism is one of education
we hope to overcome some of
the really basic problems confronting our cities.” A type of
—

radio Ombudsman through which
the public cannot only air its
problems, but also offer advice
is one of WBFO’s aspirations.
Puerto Rican and black culture
and thought will be main topics
of program broadcast from the
satellite station. Book reviews of
new books on black culture and
minority group culture will be
broadcast. Radio drama will be
done in order to encourge neighborhood groups interested in the

arts.

Operation of the satellite pro-

will be independent of University station supervision. Members of the black and minority
grams

communities will be involved with
the various operational aspects of
the program including: announcing, programming, management
and advisement. Although some
integration will occur, the majority of the workers will be black.
Mr. Siemering expects to contact people from BUM), CAO and
the Perry Project in order to find
more workers for the program.
Health information will be
broadcast in both English and
Spanish. This will include information on nutrition, consumer buying and pointing out available
services.
A shortage of funds is holding
back a large amount of the operation. Renovation, soundproofing
the studio, equipment and a
longer program could be severely
limited by a lack of money.
WBFO hopes to pay one fulltime professional director of the.
satellite who has to be found,
and six other part-time workers.
Also, with sufficient funds, the
program would be able to sign on
at 11:00 a.m. instead of 2:00 p.m.
Mr. Siemering said: I believe
that this is the first operation
like this in the country where the
actual people have some input
into the programming.” He emphasized that WBFO has been
experimenting for some time with
programs such as the past year’s
“

People-to-People,

He said: “We have had more

programs in the inner city over
a longer period of time than any

other station in the city.”

Editor’s Note: Bruce Beyer, leader ol the
itfalo Draft Resistance Union and Bruce

writing, still at the Unitarian-Univer'salist
Church, Elmwood and W. Ferry. They have
been there since the night of Aug. 7. seeking symbolic sanctuary in order to show
their abhorrence for the Selective Service
System and the war in Vietnam.
Mr. Beyer was originally scheduled for
induction April 26. He refused induction
then. His draft board saw fit to give him a
second chance, and he suffered no repercussions.
Instead, he was scheduled for induction
a second time, Aug. 8. He refused again.
Mr. Cline was ordered to report lor induction May 29; he too refused. At present,
both men are waiting for federal marshalls
to come to the church and arrest them:
Neither know when this might be, but Mr.
Beyer has said: “The two of us and uur
many supporters will stay here until we
are arrested, no matter how long that
might take."

took sanctuary in the Unitarian Church.

ing and the misery the Vietnamese people are going through because of this unjust war. The United States has no right
to be in Vietnam, and the Vietnamese
people do not want us there.
“I am taking this stand at the church
with my brother and Bruce Beyer because
I support what they are doing 100%. This
war has to stop for the sake of humanity
and because the American people must establish a new and decent society. They cannot do this as long as the inhuman and illegal war in Vietnam is going on.”

August 8

Supporters of Mr. Cline and Mr. Beyer
started coming to the church at 7:30 a m.
to demonstrate their support.
At

10 a.m., approximately 25 people

marched outside the induction center at
1021 Main St, in support of Revere Perkins who was scheduled for induction that
day.
Mr. Perkins was expelled from Alfred
University because of the support he gave
to Michael Kay, a history professor who
was fired from Alfred last spring for taking part in a demonstration at a football
game against ROTC. Mr. Perkins was arrested, but later freed on bail.
In the early afternoon, the growing community of people at the church was joined
by Booker T. Washington, a disabled black
war veteran from Buffalo. Mr. Washington
embraced Mr, Beyer saying: “What you
are doing is truly good. We are all children of God, and one man must not fight

Mr. Marciano; Raymond Malak, an undergraduate English major here, and Debbie
Wright, a student at Buffalo Seminary. In
the words of Mr. Mayrl: “The show came
off fairly well, but there were a lot of questions we would like to have heard asked
that were not asked.”

At approximately 3 p.m„ according to
Mr. William Yates, a lecturer at the University, “a dark green, recent model Buick
stopped in front of the EIrrtwood side of
the church. There were three men in the
car. After some activity inside the car,
one of the men got out; he had in his
hands a rifle, which might have been an

Coles and me.
“The terrible thing is that there were
four small children next to us. Coles leaped
to the children to draw them into the shelter of the church. After shouting an obscenity at me, the man fired. No one was
hit. After screaming more obscenities, the
man fired the rifle again, this time into
the air. He then jumped back into the car.

with him. “1 am herb to support these
men and am going to stay at the church
for a few days,” he said.
In the evening a rally was held. About
200 people congregated on the front lawn
of the church to sing and talk and show
their support for the two men.
Eventually, members of the community
began to filter onto church grounds, engaging in conversation and joining in the
singing. Blacks from the East Side came,
rich matrons from the suburbs, little children from the neighborhood, members of
the church congregation, and even veterans of the Vietnam war.
These disparate elements gradually
seemed to fuse into one united community,
a phenomenon which none of the draft resisters had even dared to anticipate . .
had ever dared hope for. In the words of
Sue Cohen, wife of a University philosophy
teacher; “It was a beautiful thing to see.”
The tranquility of the peaceful scene on
the church lawn was somewhat shattered
when a group of about 15 counter-protesters arrived, carrying a variety of signs
supporting the war in Vietnam.
They started marching up and down the
sidewalk. A pretty girl of about eight years
carried a sign that read, “Napalm Hanoi,”
A raucous ultra right-winger sported a sign
reading. “Keep Marx out of the church."
Eventually members of this group started
screaming insults at the people on the

Counter protest
At a rally that evening, Professor Kay
spoke out against the war in Vietnam. Bob
Hass, an English teacher here, read poetry.
Mrs. Kevin Ferber, mother of Michael
Ferber who is now appealing a two-year
prison term sentence and $1000 fine handed him for counselling, abiding, and abetting young men to avoid the draft, also

spoke.
She said that as a member of the church,
she supported what Mr. Beyer and Mr,
Cline were doing. Many separate discussion
groups sprang up. talking about such diverse things as the war. the evils found in
our society today, communism, Cuba, Che

X. No counter-demonstrators appeared at the church.
August 10
A story covering the shooting incident
of the previous day appeared in the Buffalo morning newspaper. The story discounted the fact that shots had been fired
outside the church, and implied that the
shots were possibly “firecrackers.'
Mr. Yates commented on the article:
"The reactionary newspapers in this city
are continually filled with distortions and
lies, and 1 think this article is a perfect
example of that. For the Courier to lead
people to believe that attempts were not
made to take our lives is tantamount to
the deception and camouflage Hitler resorted to when he tried to hide the fact
that thousands of Jews were being annihilated in Nazi Germany. This kind of distorted coverage must stop. The people of
Buffalo have a right to know the truth of
what is happening in their community," he
said.
As on the previous days, people gathered
on the grassy slopes of the church lawn.
Discussions went on throughout the day,
and there was a plethora of singing. In the
evening a jug band entertained the large
crowd of supporters.
August 11
There was a large turn-out of people for
the Sunday church services, which began
Guevara and Malcolm

at 10 a.m.

The Rev. Jerry Wright opened the services by reading the congregation a letter
he had received which warned that "unless
those cowards and yellow-bellies get off
the churf h grounds, your church is going
to be bombed to hell.”
Rev. Wright said that anyone who might

like to leave the church after hearing this
fantastic threat could do so. No one left.
Mr. Beyer spoke a bit later, as did Maria
Flores, who is in Buffalo with her husband Juan to organize a Buffalo boycott of
California grapes.
Later in the day persons began working
on a newspaper titled “Liberated Com
munity News," to be published twice weekly. An extensive poster campaign became
even more extensive. And as always, doz
ens of talks and discussions went on
throughout the evening.

August 12
Judy Collins, the well-known folk singer,
came to the church at 9:30 a.m. In a performance at Melody Fair the previous
night she had told her audience, “It makes
me very happy to be in a city where the
church is still regarded as a sanctuary."
Miss Collins spoke to Mr. Beyer and Mr.
Cline for a half-hour or so. and without
any fanfare, quietly left. Bruce Beyer described her as “a truly beautiful person.
He also said that Miss Collins would be
back in Buffalo in the fall to do two concerts. all proceeds from the concerts go
ing to the Buffalo Draft Resistance Union.
In the evening talks and singing continued, and Max Wickert, another University English professor, gave a poetry read
ing.

Two high-school students arrived with a
sign saying. “Support our boys in Vietnam." They were invited to speak to the
crowd, and did so, at one point saying that
"Communists aren't even human beings."
Because of city ordinances, supporters
left the church at 10 p.m.
The two high-school students were invited to come back the next evening to
“rap" with the “Liberated Community”
group. Bob Cohen, a University teacher of
philosophy, said; “I think we tan get
through to high-school kids such as these
two and show them how they are being exploited and alienated by the government
of this country just as much as we who
are gathered here.
"Every day more people are joining us.
Every day \vc become a more cohesive
from
unit. We invite anyone and everyone
the Buffalo community to come and talk
with us, to join us in our fight against a
social system which, unless changed, will
destroy every American, regardless of race
or creed."

at all.

To his mind, the issues—poverty and
segregation in the Buffalo area—are going
to be met. Only the policy of attack will
be different. “Woody” Cole simply plans
to “help get some good people committed
to putting good people into office."
At the moment his main political energies are centered in the Buffalo-based
CAUSE group (Coalition for Action, Unity
and Social Equality) through which he
hopes to find a slate of candidates to oppose the Common Council’s subtly racist
block which derives emotional leadership
from Mrs. Alfreda

Slominski.

Besides putting next year’s electoral
scene to use (three district councilmen will

1969), CAUSE will present the issues first

explain to them what racism means to the
average white voter, and impress upon
them the need for spontaneous “grass
roots’* support in the racially-colored
local issues. This can be done once the
extent to which whites fall under the
sobriquet of “racist” is realized.

The principle in use here is local organization of interested groups whose activities can lead to the community’s work-

ing for itself.

In all probability, according to Rev.
Cole, this principle will prove viable with
regards to the Council elections. The
mayoral race of 1969 is another matter,

Stage Two was an attempt to apply the

mammy tradition —were nonexistent in the North. The while liberal, who
had been very helpful in Stage One because of the conventional legislative paths

Stage Two. Working with the blacks in

Black Power simply means that the Negro wants to control his own social and
economic destiny in order that cooperation with while groups—even within the
movement itself —can be sustained in an
atmosphere of true equality.
To Woody Cole, Stage Three of the

civil rights movement involves the recognition that activists must now attack the
fundamental cause of the racial split—the struggle between the haves and the
have-nots. (And if the “grass roots’’ approach is at all effective .educationally,
then all voters, white or black, will deserve the name “activist ”)
As it stands, the power structures in
the while community—banks, department
stores, political parties, social clubs, trade
unions and so on—unwittingly advocate
an institutionalized form of racism. In
operational terms, these power blocks
still foster the myth that some people are
inferior to others because of the color
of their skin.

Since it is this base of power in the
while community which must be changed
at the third stage of the civil rights movement, Rev. Cole has chosen CAUSE as a
base for action. He is chief political
science researcher for this organization
which, although it is dedicated to civil

Radcliffe president discusses
role of student in university
The president of a college with 1200
students and no faculty visited the State
University of Buffalo campus Monday.
Mrs. Mary I. Bunting, president of Radcliffe College, met with University officials and faculty provosts during her
visit.

Discussions with Dr. Bunting concerned "how to set up undergraduate colleges, and what can we do to have
women play a bigger role in the University,” She termed Radcliffe a "model
on the
for the colleges that will be set up
new Amherst campus.”
In an interview, Dr. Bunting explained
the college itself has no faculty
members, but that Harvard professors

that

leach all courses. Graduates of Radcliffe
receive a Harvard degree.

Academic innovations at Radcliffe include an experiment in “education for
action." An experimental course, run by
a student board, provides an "academic
preperation tor summer work.” Its central concern is “preparation for summer
service opportunities, such as teaching in
the urban areas.” The course is the only
one of its kind at Radcliffe—there is
nothing comparable to the Bulletin Board
courses here.
Rejects 'in loco parenti'
The attitude of many women's college

administrations that the college should be
"in loco parenti" was challenged by Dr.
Bunting. "I have never subscribed to ‘in
loco parenti’ as far as discipline is concerned. Our position is that a great deal
of what the student learns is learned outside the classroom, and it is all pertinent.
We are concerned with the wealth of opportunities outside the classroom."

Concerning student power. Dr. Bunting
said: "We work at it." She explained that
she is "completely convinced of the importance of lots of student input before
administrative decisions are made. We
need the fresh thinking that is provided
by the students.”
However, the Radcliffe president does
not think that students should make decisions on many issues because of their
"shorter perspective.”

The source of the student input is the
placing of students on trustee committees.
Student delegates are invited to most
trustee meetings, and have full voting
privileges. Radcliffe also has a joint committee consisting of six students, four ad-

ministrators, the chairman of the Board

of Trustees and the president of the
alumni association. “All important questions are taken to this committee for consideration,” Dr. Bunting commented.
The results of this system, set up last
year, are added expense and more demands on staff and student time. But,
Dr. Bunting added; “The whole place is a
lot livelier and the trustees are seeing a
lot more of the students.”
Dr. Bunting received her BS at Vassar
and her PhD at the University of Wisconsin in bacteriology and biochemistry.

era of minor league baseball has all but

Buffalo Bills attitude
improved for 1968
by Rich Baumgarten
Sports Editor

Remember the championship years of
the American Football League Buffalo
Bills in 1964, ’65, and '66? Do you remember the disastrous 4-10 1967 season
when 24 out of 40 Bills missed at least
one game with an injury? Well, you can
forget the past because the Buffalo Bills
are a team of the future.
Three visits to the Buffalo Bills training camp at Niagara University have convinced me that for attitude, the 1968 Bills

club will rival that of any championship
year. The spirit at the camp is sky high.
Let’s spend an afternoon at the Bills’
camp and see if we can detect an im-

proved attitude.

Over in the far field, Bills’ offensive
and defensive linemen are scrimmaging
one on one. Defensive end Howard Kindig
catches rookie tackle from Penn State,
Mike MeBath, holding him. In no uncertain terms Kindig lets MeBath know that
any future holding won’t be tolerated.
Just one minute later, Kindig has his arm
around MeBath complimenting him on a
good pass block.

Time for some warm-up exercises. Paul
McGuire, the team’s funny man and one
of the league’s best punters on his serious
side, picks up a shovel. McGuire digs a
hole in the ground. “We’re going to fill
this up with blood after the practice,”
says the likeable red-head. Silence. Suddenly a chuckle, then 52 football players
break up laughing.
Everyone’s relaxed.
McGuire walks
over to veteran quarterback Jack Kemp.
“I think I'll be a quarterback so I
won’t
have to earn my money,” says McGuire
to Kemp. More laughs.
Suddenly

Head Coach Joel Collier
blows his whistle. No more laughs.
It’s all
serious now.
Today we have a full-dress scrimmage.
It’s the offense vs. the defense, and men
are playing for their jobs. Some 4000
fans ring the football field.
There’s excitement in the air.

night.

All hope for Buffalo baseball appeared
lost until the neighboring city of Niagara
Falls offered the use of its Hyde Park
Stadium to Bison officials. The Bisons,
with the approval of International League
headquarters, accepted the offer. Buffalo
would play all its weeknight “home”
games in Niagara Falls.
Since that decision a little more than
one year ago, much of the atmosphere of
the Golden Era of the late 1950s has returned to Bison baseball.

The ball is now on the defense’s 26 yard
stripe. The Bills’ offense is rolling. Up
to the line comes the offensive unit.
Kemp looks confident. Back to pass.
Good protection. Kemp fakes a pass to
Elbert Dubenion cutting over the middle
and then spots Wray Carlton all alone on
the goal line. The ball is in the air and
Carlton squeezes it. Touchdown tor the
offense.

There’s no doubt about it. The scrimmage belongs to the offense. Before the
afternoon is over, the Bills’ offense will
have scored three touchdowns on drives
enginered by three different quarterbacks.
Veterans Jack Kemp and Tom Flores and
rookie Dan Darragh will each throw one
touchdown pass. Running backs Keith
Lincoln, Ben Gregory and Gary McDermott will be ground standouts. Receivers
Dick Trapp, Elbert Dubenion and Monte
Ledbetter will have Bills’ fans blinking
their eyes with their fantastic receptions.
And the defensive unit will have its

moments of recognition, especially when
linebacker Jim LeMoyne intercepts a pass
and returns it for a touchdown.

Bills have healthy attitude

themselves. They compliment each other,

Publicity Director Jack Horrigan, comthe players’ A-plus attitude,
put it this way: “This positive attitude is
reflected in the fact that the players were

they’re going to prove it on the football

“Screen! Screen!” yells the defense, but

tude, it’s not going to be 4-10 either.

Cozy atmosphere
In Hyde Park attention is on the game
and not on the cold spectacle of 40,000
empty seats. Spectators on the right field
line bleachers are so close to the field
that they can almost hear what first baseman Bob (Fat) Chance is saying to the um-

pire.

The press box announcer adds to the
cozy atmosphere with periodic cries of
“splash” (when a foul ball lands in the

Hyde Park swimming pool), occasional
warnings to boys who climb the center
field fence, and a few bars of popular
songs during the seventh inning stretch.

The Bisons presently are fighting their
out of the second division, but with
the International League standings as
close as they are, first place could be
only a short winning streak ayvay. Buffalo
opens a “home” stand next Monday at
7:30 p.m. and continues in Hyde Park

through Saturday.

From the State University of Buffalo
campus Buffalonians can follow Niagara

directly to Hyde Park. For an evening of
relaxed entertainment and top flight baseball, Hyde Park Stadium is the place to

True, attendance in Niagara Palls has
never reached the 400,000 fan minor
league record set in Offerman Stadium.

The pigskin is now on the defense's 36
yard line. Kemp calls another play. The
ball is faked to fullback Wray Carlton,
and handed to Lincoln on an end sweep.
Defensive end Bill Wilkerson turns the
play in, and Lincoln looks trapped behind
the line of scrimmage. Suddenly guard
Billy Shaw comes from nowhere, takes
out a linebacker with a devastating block,
and Lincoln runs ten yards upfield.

The ball is placed on the
offensive 40
yard line, and the referee signals to play
ball. Kemp stands over center. He barks
the signals. The ball is snapped.

Prior to the 1967 season, dwindling
War Memorial attendance figures led to
speculation that soon Buffalo would be

Part III

Opposition tough for ’68
Editors Note: The 1968 State University
of Buffalo football Bulls open their season
Sept. 14 against Iowa State. This is the
final article analyzing the '68 Bulls.
Today: The Opposition.

Three years ago Head Coach Doc Urich
began a “new era” in State University of
Buffalo football competition. Uriah’s stepped-up program has culminated in one of
the finest schedules in Buffalo football
history. There is no doubt about it. For
size, talent and mobility, the Bulls’ ’68 opposition is a tough group to beat.
Iowa State; Buffalo’s first venture into
the Big 8 finds the Bulls locking horns
with a young, but potentially tough Iowa
State ball club. Coach Johnny Majors, new
at Iowa, has nineteen returning lettermen
including highly

regarded

quarterback

Jack Warder (6 feet, 187 pounds) and their
number one fullback for 1967 Ben King
(5 feet 10 inches, 190 pounds) who rushed
for 400 yards a year ago.
Like the Bulls, Iowa State runs out of
an I formation with King as the big ground
threat. A tough defense anchored by allleague tackle Willie Muldrew (6 feet 2 inches, 200 pounds) figures to make Iowa
State a formidable opponent for the Bulls
of ’68.

Kent State; Coach Dave PudjJington appears to have a big, rugged squad, al-

though replacing All American fullback
Don Fitzgerald and number one quarterback Ron Swartz could be a problem. Sophomore Don Nottingham (5 feet 11 inches, 205 pounds), a big bruiser, will probably start at fullback, while Steve Trustoff (5 feet 11 inches, 180 pounds) moves
into the quarterback slot.
Kent’s strength lies in the tremendous
size and depth of the offensive and defensive lines. From tackle, Kent’s offensive
line averages 245 pounds. Tom Walter at
6 feet 4 inches, 285 pounds, plays a mean
game at offensive tackle. Kent’s defense

is just as rough. There are lettermen at
every position, Kent State has at least two
potential all-conference defensive linemen in Jim Corrigan (6 feet, 4 inches, 232
pounds) and Nick Guy (6 feet 3 inches,
230 pounds). After losses to Buffalo in
1966 and 1967, Kent State will be a hard
team to beat for 1968.
Massachusetts: Favored to win the Yankee conference, the Redmen appear solid
in every position except at quarterback.
Gone is All-American signal-caller Greg
Landry (first draft choice of Detroit Lions)
as well as a couple of all-league guards,
but Coach Vic Fusia has some outstanding replacement possibilities. Tom Adams
and Mike Marchev, two highly
rated prospects, are battling for the number one
quarterback job, while Mike Fulton will
get a shot at offensive guard.
Massachusetts will have a crack defensive unit to throw at the Bulls. Standouts Mike Sheralis and end Tom York
anchor a rugged defensive line. The Bulls
will have to be at their best to beat this

ball club.

Boston College: The word from Boston
College is that the Eagles have a lot of
size, a lot of depth and an improved attitude for the ’68 season. Young Joe Yukika replaces head coach Jim Miller after
Boston College registered two consecutive
4-6 seasons.

Mike Fallon will quarterback BC’s multiple offense, while halfback Dave Bennet
and fullback Gene Cornelia are good

threats.
The defensive line is immense with huge
tackles in John Fitzgerald and Jerry Ragan, Captain Gary Andrajak and Dick
Kroner are excellent linebackers, while
five lettermen give BC a strong defensive
backfield. In short BC has the material to
give the Bulls plenty of trouble.

-j?, Continued from Page 5
Delaware: This is a rebuilding year for
the Hens. A porous defense led to a 2-7
record in 1967, causing head coach Tubby
Raymond to make all sorts of defensive
changes. “We’re going to take many of our
best people and put them on the defensive
unit,” said Raymond.
Delaware is a wide oi ien raz
zle-dazzle type ball club which puts point
on the scoreboard. Sam Brickley and Jim
Lazarski are experienced halfbacks while
Ron Witheldet (36 receptions, 504 yards in
1967) gives the Hens good receiving.
However, lack of depth on both the offensive and defensive lines, as well as linebacking deficiencies, seems to indicate it
will be a long season for Delaware.
Villanova: Heavy graduation may have
taken some of the wind out of Villanova’s
sails, but Coach Jack Gregory still has
plenty of football talent for '68.

The offensive line is well set with veterans manning the tackle and guard slots,
but Coach Schmakel fears a "letdown” on
defense. To Schmakcl’s dismay. Boston's
entire defensive front five has been wiped
out by graduation. At this point it appears that only complacency can slop the
Bulls in their Boston University game.

Communication College
aims to expand learning

Psychiatric program to
he offered in core area
by Stephen Li|

A new facet is being added to the local
crime prevention and health services—community psychiatry. It is heacled by
Dr. Jack Zusman, a recent addition to the
State University of Buffalo School of Medicine staff.

Dr. Zusman, an associate professor in
the Departments of Psychiatry and Preventive Medicine, comes to this University from the National Institute of Mental
Health, Chevy Chase, Md. There he
headed the Center for Epidemologic
Studies for the past year and a half. He
is currently working out of Meyer Memorial Hospital,

core area inhabitant’s problems, people
residing in the area itself are given training.

•

Trainees are picked for their common
sense, and they experience much easier
times coping and establishing rapport with
‘the underprivileged.”
Explaining how the program will work,
Dr, Zusman indicated that once the worker is established in the neighborhood,
people come to him for advice. They tend
to be more relaxed with someone of their
own background rather than someone of
an upper class.

He pointed out that many people are
unwilling or afraid for one reason or
another to go of their own accord. If a
problem exisits, the patient is usually referred by a teacher, nurse, or someone
interested in helping. The worker is then
consulted by a trained specialist regarding the patient’s problems. Rarely does
the patient himself come into direct contact with the doctor.

Programs like the one attempted here
have worked successfully in Denver, San
Francisco and San Mateo County, Calif.,
and the Bronx's Lincoln Hospital, leader
in this area of study, “Erie County differs
from any other locality previously involved,” stresses Dr. Zusman, as a result
of its mixed financial backgrounds.

San Mateo County is an unusually
wealthy area, and Lincoln Hospital is in
a primarily slum area, but, “Erie County
is the only one I’ve encountered where

to be very satisfactory, Dr. Zusman added.

Zusman commented.

is seldom

With programs such as the one here,
the accepted procedure is to establish a
store-front clinic in the core area. At the
present time, Dr. Zusman’s program does
not have a set location, and is co-using the
Erie County Department of Mental
Health’s clinic.

taken from his environment.

By admitting a patient to a hospital, separated from his family, the family unit
tends to be broken up. In this case the
children usually go into foster homes and
the patient finds it harder thereafter to

re-establish himself in his niche.

For those interested in helping with
the program, a drive will be held in six
months to recruit prospective volunteers.
They are needed to fulfill the goal outlined by Dr. Zusman—“to develop mental
health services in Erie County so that no
one in need of help will have to do with-

They are at the Unitarian-Universalist Church at West

to come and get them.

At the present, we are three lonely GI's stationed in Vietnam. We are never in one city or

you with the hopes that you may help us with a

Inevitably, they will be arrested. Their crime is that they
refuse to be inducted into the armed forces.
One of them put it this way: “I would gladly accept imprisonment and a fine rather than accept the draft. The war
is economically ruinous to working people, poor people and
black people. We might as well be used to wage a war against
Black America.

by J.

“Why is there an increased number of illegitimate children, an increased divorce rale, a credibility gap, an increase in crime, and an emptiness in
so many lives, in other words, immorality? Wars
if ever necessary—are always immoral. Fantastically
and gigantically so. Maybe this immorality of war
feeds the immorality here at home. The reverse
might also be true. This would give the pacifist
even greater reason to work for peace.

—

“Several years ago a man wrote out ten rules
a
for more beautiful world. One rule was Thou shall
not kill.’ A hang up we are now finding is that this
rule won't work. It won’t work unless we go along
with the other nine; like ‘thou shall not commit
adultery,' and Thou shall not covet thy neighbor’s
| goods].’ On the same bill it says that anyone who
is really dedicated to the cause of peace will have
to put down drugs. Thou shall have no other gods
before me.’ Another fellow, Jesus, simplified it into
two commands. Love God and love your neighbor.
The point is, peace is something very noble and very
moral, and it will not be realized in one’s own mind
or throughout the world, until we achieve both morality and nobility.”
We don’t know if Mr. Beyer and Mr. (’line defy the draft
for such religious ideals. Probably not. More likely their
decision is rooted in humanitarian principals, not spiritual
ones.

They would probably lake exception to much in the
above letter. So would we.

L. McCrary

J. L. predictably predicted inaccurately the unfolding of the GOP National Convention. He was
right about the boredom and ho-humdrum, but
wrong about floor fights and seccsssion threats (although the New Republic has since compared Ihc
election of 1908 with that of 1860 with some sue
cess.)

And A is not for Alabama, home of Gcoage Wallace, as I primed, but rather for Agnew. darkest of
horses, a Marylander who made the Governor's
mansion his home while his foe tried to make every
one s home his castle. Southerners arc now placated

Vies a big slick.
This being the last column for the summer and
forever. J. I., will attempt to lay his career on the
line and piiint a poignant picture in print, indeed
a prophecy of the 1968 Democratic National Convention. Stand by.
"This is J. L. McCrary in Chicago, the windy
city, that wonderful town. Sorry I’m a little lute
tonight for the kick-off. democracy fans, but I had
a little credentials fight of my own down at the
door. A half million National Guardsmen armed
with bazookas, tear gas, tanks, tactical nuclear weapons and vicious dogs are down there trying to
make this convention safe for democracy. I told
them 1 was a college student reporting for The
Spectrum, which got me a frisking and a good beating.

•‘The big question in everyone's mind this year
is will the convention be open For that answer we
take you to Mayor Daily,"
“We naturally wanted an open convention. J. L.,
but if you haven’t noticed, the convention hall is
upwind from the stockyards and for that reason, 1
think the convention will have to be closed."
"How about security, Mr. Daily, is it good
enough?"
“Our security system is so good even Sen. Me
Carthv will have a hard time getting in the hall
J L,"

"Thanks. Mayor Daily. Let’s go down to the
floor where President Johnson is addressing the
delegates,"

"Mali follow Americans. As we all go bout this
here task to select a new President of these United
States, I want it made good and clear that this administration has done more than any other in the
field of civil rights and the war on poverty. While
some critics will say that we proved we can’t have
guns and buttter, we’ve proved that we don’t really
need the high-price spread,
"The peace negotiations in Paris are showing
increasing good signs that the ugly war against the
aggressors from the north will soon be over. And
you can thank my administration for that.
"There are those who would accuse our administration of being hawkish and at the same time
denounce us for letting a fourth rate power like
North Korea capture the Pueblo. We can answer

that we are a peace-loving people, only willing to
one war at a time.
“It is my hope that violence in the streets will
stop and it can only stop if we give the people what

they deserve.
"J. L. again. That was a passionate plea from
LBJ to stop complaining, reasoning that Hubert
has got to be better than Nixon. Stay tuned for the
long hot fall.”

Before coming here, we were anxiously awaiting
our discharge so that we could go home to our girl
friends and fiances, hoping to pick up things where
we left off. But as many of you may know. “Dear
Johns” are a common thing here and very hard to
erase. Three-fourths of the men in our squadron
have received them since being here and their mail
popularity has decreased greatly.
As you know, mail to the serviceman overseas is
about the only thing to look forward to after days,
or even weeks out in the bush during patrols. 1
realize that some college students are deeply against
the U S. Forces being in Vietnam, but who are we
to argue? Just mere pawns on the chess set overpowered by the King. Maybe you can visualize it
from our standpoint?

Suggests ride through Saigon
To the Editor;

As an alumnus of the State University of Buffalo
(February 1968) and presently serving with the
Second Infantry Division in Korea, I wish to com
ment on the article about Robert Oreenblatt in the
July 26, 1968 issue of the The Spectrum.
Since Mr, Greenblatt is appalled and shocked at
our military bombing of North Vietnam, what views
does he have on the recent indiscriminate and mur
derous bombing of Saigon by the Communists’ If
Mr. Greenblatt is as humanely concerned over the
loss of life in the American bombing of the North,
why does he fail to show the same concern over the
he
Red attacks on Saigon? I'll venture to say that
believes that the Saigon bombings were caused by
“errant American artillery,” as Uncle Ho so in
nocently put it.
Furthermore, I find it extremely hard to believe
that the bombing of the North is “taking place in
Vietnam's most populated area, up to 250 miles

north of the DMZ." Since both Hanoi and Haiphong
are now north of the bomb-zone in North Vietnam
is
how Mr. Greenblatt made that off-the-wall claim

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Support urged at rally
At noon Wednesday, approximately 250
people gathered in the Norton fountain
area to give their support to three men
who are refusing military induction.
These three individuals, all of whom
risk possible fines and prison sentences by
refusing to be inducted, are: Bruce Beyer,
a leader in the Buffalo Draft Resistance
Movement, Bruce Cline, a worker in the

B.D.R.M., and Revere Perkins. Mr. Perkins is a former student at Alfred University, expelled from that institution because of his support of an Alfred professor who had lost his job because of his
anti-Vietnam feelings.
Thursday, Mr. Beyer and Mr, Cline
sought sanctuary in the Unitarian Church
at Elmwood and West Ferry. Mr. Perkins
went to the induction center to express
his disinterest for serving a two-year tenure in the United States Army.
Larry Faulkner, a leader in the B.D.R.M.,
was the first to speak at the rally. He appealed to the crowd to come to the church
Thursday in support of the three men, to
come in order to show the solidarity that
is behind the ideals the three are trying
to uphold. He asked the crowd, “Are we
going to stand by that church with Bruce?’’
The crowd expressed its feelings on the
matter by a scattering of “yesses.”
Mr, Faulkner claimed that the three re-

sistors are “standing up for all of us, that
they are symbolic representatives for the
large mass of students in this country."
In an emotional speech, Bruce Beyer,
the next speaker appealed to the students
at the University to do something about
what is happening to our country. He told
his listeners that he is seeking sanctuary
in the church so that people throughout
the country will hear of what is being
done to people like him by the oppressive
forces within our government.
The third person to speak was Bob Cohen, also a leader in the B.D.R.M. Cohen

previously had

said: “If the authorities

come to the church Thursday to get Bruce
and Bruce Cline, they may have to
do so over our dead bodies.” In a forceful speech Mr. Cohen condemned the war
in Vietnam, our present political structure,
and the lack of people in this country who
are willing to work to improve our society.
He received a strong round of applause at
the conclusion of his speech.
Beyer

To end the rally, Bruce Beyer appeared
once again. “I feel calm in the face of possible arrest, because 1 know that what I
am doing is right. When the Federal marshalls come to drag me out of the church
Thursday, I can say to them, “I’m bigger
than you are, because I am following the
dictates of my conscience.”

Senate candidate discusses
peace in talk at Buff. State
Paul O’Dwyer, Democratic nominee for
the U.S. Senate, asserts that people he has
met are more interested in peace than
any other issue.
Before an informal gathering at State
University College at Buffalo, Mr. O’Dwyer
singled out the war in Vietnam as the
chief difference between himself and incumbent Sen. Jacob Javits.
“There was no greater apologist for the
Javits after his trip to Vietnam
in January of 1966," said the candidate.
He further criticized Sen. Javits for giving
“complete approval to the ‘domino theory’
that rationalizes our presence in Southeast Asia.”

war than

Mr. O’Dwyer was skeptical about all
“peace plans” now being offered. He said
it is impossible for anyone to present a
workable solution to the war “in three
easy steps.” He called for the presentation
of an attitude genuinely dedicated to
peace rather than a specific “plan.”
Mr. O’Dwyer’s position concerning Vietnam placed him in direct opposition to
his party’s leading contender for the presidential nomination, Hubert Humphrey.
Indicating that there was no difference
between Mr. Humphrey and Richard Nixon on the war issue, Mr. O’Dwyer said he
could not support the Vice President.

Action -taken at a Sub-Board I meeting
Monday provided for regular meetings of

cialions -to consider issues of general student concerns. The student associations in-

volved are Graduate, Medical-Dental, Millard Fillmore College, Undergraduate and

Representatives of these associations

and chairman of the Board, mentioned the
value of a unified student opinion presented to the faculty or administration

the Graduate and Undergraduate Associations in the past year.

President Meyerson has introduced the
possibility of student representation on
all Faculty Senate ocmmittees, and Dr,

A new credit course to be offered this
fall, The City, will enable students to
familiarize themselves with the Buffalo
community.

The objective of the course is “to change
the situation and attitudes of the total

community by working through politics,
the educational system and social work to
make a total community that trust and
work together for common goals,” according to Tracy Cottone, second vice president of the Student Association.
The two semester course will involve a
semester of academic work followed by a

term of field experience. Miss Cottone
said that the course is based on the assumption that “learning can take place
satisfactorily both within and without the
present University structure,”

ing and evaluating books in such areas as
education, racism, crime and legal establishment, employment and economies.
Since students will be free from scheduled
obligations on campus, including lectures,
they can arrange a flexible pattern of
scholarly work and field experience.

Mr. O’Dwyer expressed dissatisfaction
with the present draft system in general.
He cited a lottery system or the creation
of a volunteer army as reasonable alternatives to methods now in practice.
The candidate called for an examination of the laws governing the use of drugs
and marijuana. He asserts that there is a
difference between marijuana and narcotics that is “least understood by the older
generation, especially those in law enforcement. We must evaluate the facts and deal
differently with both in our penal code.”
When asked about his differences with
Gov. Rockefeller, Mr, O’Dwyer emphasized

the field of eduaction. He recommended
extending New York City’s concept of a
free university system to a statewide level.
He hopes this would provide a college education for all capable students.

among them were brought out. For example, as was emphasized by the past
year’s rift of Millard Fillmore College and
the English Department, the relative academic standing of the night and day
schools is often in dispute.

Student involvement in decition*
Dr. Fradin’s Committee of Student Affairs is to “begin work on a general plan
for the involvement of students in the decision making processes of the University.”
Regardless of institutional difficulties and
inevitable problems that will arise, the
members of Sub-Board I saw a unitary
body as the most effective means of fulfilling this desire. Dr. Fraddn will be invited to future meetings of the body.
At the same meeting, funds were authorized for three student organizations—$750
for the Law School Loan Association, following a request of that amount ($350 for
three delegates to the National Student
Bar Association convention, $400 for freshman orientation, all to be repaid by student fees); $265 to.the Commuter Council
and $890 to the Graduate Student Association. This figure included the financing
of a visitor to Cuba, who will be among
50 Americans invited by the Cuban government through SDS. He will offer firsthand
information to the student body and hopefully serve as convocation speaker.

party. He feels it is “physically impossible
for such a party to mount a meaningful
campaign at this time.” He pointed to a
similar effort in 1948 and termed it a “dismal failure.”
In reply to a question about present
draft laws, Mr. O’Dwyer spoke favorably of
more liberal provisions for conscientious
objectors. Calling the present criteria too
restrictive, he favors extending the draft
law to make allowances for what he called
a “matter of individual conscience,”

sanctity of minority opinion. However, it
was pointed out that the exact role and
powers of any unitary body were not at
issue, only the feasibility of such a body.

The academic work will consist of read-

May vary
The nature of the course

may vary with
the individual student. Miss Cottone explained that some students may wish to
live or work in one or more areas of the
city for an extended period of time, interspersing this with periods of studying
and writing on campus. Others may wish
to alternate between city and campus more

frequently.

Options open to participants include the
possibility of placement in an agency or
institution, or individual observation in a
segment of the community without any
regular assignment.
Miss Cottone emphasized that “the educational gains for the student will rest on
the student’s own scholarly and field activities, on interdisciplinary seminars and
faculty supervision, and on the good will,
cooperation and informal teaching activities of the residents of the city itself.”
The course, masterminded by student
Tom Potter, is open to all students, who
may contact him at 831-3446 for more information.

Bookstore calls act intentional
The State University of Buffalo was the
scene of an alleged “book burning” on
the evening of July 30.
The books involved were the property
of the Afro-Asian Bookstore in Exile, temporarily set up in Norton lobby. They had
been kept in overnight storage in room
105, Norton Hall,
Included were pamphlets from North
Vietnam and works dealing with the life
of Malcolm X and black history. A member of the Norton Hall maintenance staff
destroyed them, claiming he thought they
were garbage.

Gerald Gross, a representative of the
bookstore, termed the act “deliberate.” He

said the books had been stored in the
same room for several months. Mr. Gross
claimed many books were hard-covered
and stored in a heavy, plainly marked box.
Dr, Anthony F. Lorenzetti, Dean of Students, called the destruction of the materials “very unfortunate,” He insisted the
maintenance man, a state employee, had
no knowledge of what the books were
about. According to Dr, Lorenzetti the
burning was “clearly an error.”

He said Miss Dorothy Haas, co-ordinator
of Student Activities and Norton Hall director, has apologized and offered a remittance for the lost books. Mr. Gross estimated the value of the books at $200.

night concert at Melody Fair, 8:30 p.m.
Sunday. Her background in the entertainment field stems from her studies as a
concert pianist, and it wasn't until years
after that she took up the guitar and began her career as a folksinger.
Folk music has gained wider currency
through her efforts in promoting the folk
idiom. Accompanying herself on six and
12 string guitars, she has a good rapport
with her material, whether it be a Dylan
or Beatles tune or a song of her own

mother.

The first of the one-acters is Arrabal’s
“Picnic on the Battlefield," an annoyingly
inane interpretation of the futilities and
absurdities of man’s most devastating

Allegorical French Revolution
The third dramatic section of the

evening is an original mime which succeeds
surprisingly well at bringing the evening
to its emotional peak. The theme is the
French Revolution, told in allegorical
mime, and relating the intense hatred and
spite pervading the bodies and souls of
the common people.

plague—war.

The situation is ridiculous enough: A
soldier who sounds like he just entered
puberty is visited by his boisterous parents for a lunch on the battlefield.
The dialogue is loaded with such profound repartees as “Are you wounded?”,
“No, I never was lucky.”

creative talent.
“Since You Asked’ and “Sky Fell” are
two of her most recent compositions,
which appear in her new album “Wild
Flower.” Another song on that album,
called “Albatross” is supposed to be dedicated to Joan Baez.

The players are most impressive as they
move torturously slowly to the haunting
sound of the guillotine playing its gruesome song. The barbarism is climaxed
when the King and Queen are decapitated. The players have that insatiable
desire for blood; they must now act out
the Reign of Terror. The audience has
been made to feel sympathy, horror and
now futility as the people, diminshed in
number, are in the same groping, torturous state as before.

The acting is adequate; parents Peter
Sanfilipo and Dotti Drummer are almost
entertaining; but the play and direction
are weak. Whatever comment on war is
being attempted is about as moving as a
pot of boiling potatoes.

All is not lost, for the troupe redeems
itself with a curious adaptation of Ghelderode’s “Piet Bouteille,” a brief but effective study of human pain, misery and repugnance.

newest folk music trends. Their songs are

filled with descriptive passages and poweful social messages. Cohen’s love songs
are filled with agony of lost love and the
sweet fruits of a satisfied complete love.
Judy Collins expresses herself in these
sqngs and portrays the emotion of them
quite strongly. Her voice at times can be
distant and removed, while with another
song it comes out light and lilting with a
very happy delivery.
Appearing with Miss Collins is a soulful
trio minus one—otherwise known as Sam
and Dave. They’ve produced such hits as
“I’m a Soul Man” and “Hold On, I’m Coming.”

Tickets for the Sunday concert are
available at Norton Ticket Office.

As part of their Summer Theater program, the Workshop
Repertory Theater will present two plays on the State University
of Buffalo campus. The programs include two one-act plays concerning the problem of war and its effect on society.
Joseph Krysiak, artistic director of the Workshop Theater, will
direct both productions. The plays are "Soldiers From the Wars Returning" by British playwright David Campton and "Sand" by
Murray Mednick, an American author.
The program will be presented on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings for three weeks, opening Aug. 15. Tickets for the

Without expression, freedom of expression is meaningless

The Church won’t bend
Church’s traditional ban on artificial contraception, is in
itself a hard ‘Pill’ for many to swallow.
Many Catholics had hoped at least for a statement condoning the use of birth control pills. Many Church theologians feels that pills are “moral” because they do not
artifically obstruct the procreative process as do intrauterine devices, condoms, prophylactics, spermial jelly and
other birth-preventing contraptions.
For them, and millions of married Catholics, Paul’s
encyclical was a big disappointment.
But pressure won’t change the Roman Catholic Church.
So it’s useless for bands of priests and government officials
and non-Catholic religious leaders to keep wringing their
hands, and chanting the woes of an over-populated world.

Tis a strange world here. Years ago I wrote
that much is not good—that everything, everyone,
is insane—and yet, everything is much worse now.
For example, I’ve told you much about man’s
religions, many of which claim God’s allegiance
and compassion. They pray to Him and actually
believe that He has time to answer each request.
Isn’t it incredible?
One group, who call themselves “Roman Catholics,” also give much credence to a mortal in
Rome they call the Pope. The Pope, they say, is
infallible.
Few have ever even disputed the idea. Galileo,

The Spectrum e Friday, August

9, 1968

That venerable old Mississippi riverboat captain,
Sam Clemens or Mark Twain, once did a noble
piece of writing which he titled “Letters from the
Earth.” The letters were allegedly written by
Satan, whose sarcastic wit wrought God’s wrath.
He was thusly banished, and came to Earth to see
how God’s peculiar experiment—Man—was doing.
The Letters were filled with man’s inhumanity,
peculiarity, insincerity, incredulity and, naturally,
his stupidity.
Now let’s suppose that Twain—or Satan—was
sitting around today, watching the Czechs liberalize, the Republicans vocalize, the Pope philosophize,
the war demoralize; indeed, let’s monopolize on

eyes, in another time, another letter from the

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;

Under a plan approved July 19 by the

Executive Committee of the

University’s
Faculty Senate, 100 minority group students from the metropolitan Buffalo area
will be admitted to the State University
of Buffalo in September.

This plan is to be accomplished through
the extension of the enrollment quota for
the forthcoming academic year and an
adjustment of the admissions criteria.

Dr. Thomas E. Connelly, vice chairman
of the committee, called the project, “one
of the most exciting educational enterprises that have been proposed with respect to the inner core city.”
Beginning Monday, the University’s Of-

fice of Admissions, with the assistance of
various organizations and agencies of the
non-white community, will begin recruiting students, all of whom live within
commuting distance of the University.
The plan has grown from proposals of
students and faculty, culminating in a
specific recommendation of the Select
Committee for Equal Opportunity, headed
by Dr. James A. Moss. The concept has

the endorsement of the Faculty Senate
Committee on the Education Policy and
Planning, chaired by Dr. Cesar L, Barber.
The Black Students Association, a campus
organization, has been helpful to the committee in developing the plans.
The plan is in keeping with President
Martin Meyerson’s charge to the Select
Committee at the announcement of its
inception to “enlarge substantially the
proportion of non-white and Spanishspeaking students attending our Univer-

sity.”

Details of admission, curriculum and
financing are being developed by the appropriate University offices and committees. The program’s initiators anticipate
that it will rely heavily upon faculty tutorial assistance to be volunteered by individual faculty members.
The Select Committee emphasized that
the program is not to affect the regular
admissions quota of the University. Enrollment of the 100 students is to be in
addition to the original University plans
for the forthcoming academic year.
A project director is yet to be named,

Volunteers needed

Resistance stages rally
A noon rally Wednesday in the Haas
Lounge centered on the “2
-f 2 is on my
mind” theme of the Resistance.

The popularity of this message, according to Russell Smith, graduate student and
member of the Buffalo Draft Resistance
Union, means that the “average kid, not
just the college student, is beginning to
have fundamental doubts and questions
concerning the war.”
“The message of the Resistance is affecting the lives of the average Buffalo
kid.”
Explaining the strategy of the Resistance, Bruce Beyer, a student who faces
imprisonment and a fine for refusing induction, said that it is simply “enough
people saying ‘Hell no, we won’t go’.”
Mr. Beyer also discussed the recent ac-

tion by the Unitarian Church expressing
sympathy with draft resisters and offering

sanctuary in their churches.

As long as people are in complicity
with the Selective Service,” he concluded,
the killing will be done in their name.”
William Mayrl also a member of the
Buffalo Draft Resistance Union, then appealed for volunteers to work at the Draft
Information Center at 937 Ferry St. He
explained the activities of the Center and
the success that the Union has had with
the people in the Buffalo community.
“Our prime purpose is to resist the war.
The most effective way to stop the war is
to resist it where it hits closest—the Selective Service. But we are not a one issue Union. The office is a base in the
community from which to plan action.”

Raps
‘deception’

A former math professor at Cornell,
Robert Greenblatt recently visited Hanoi
and the Paris peace talks. He blasted
Pres. Johnson for alleged "deception“

about the bombing halt.

TV. Viet bombed more since
halt Hanoi visitor charges
,

The “false promise” of the Paris peace
talks was challenged here Wednesday evening by Robert Greenblatt, visitor to both
Hanoi and Paris. From June 9 until June
20 Mr. Greenblatt talked in Paris to both
sides in the peace negotiations, after visiting Hanoi in May.

Mr. Greenblatt focused on what he
called the deception of the Johnson administration—the “politics of escalation".
In the past five months, he said, there
have been many changes on the American scene, but essentially none in Vietnam,

Enumerating the changes, he explained
that the fear of the possible use of tactical nuclear weapons (proposed in January) has subsided and Khe Sanh
is no
longer strategically important. Senator
William Fulbright, claimed Mr. Greenblatt, has investigated the possibility that
Khe Sanh was purposely made to draw
enemy forces in order to unify public
opinion in the United States against the
North Vietnamese. Also a change on the
American scene is the fact that President
Johnson has disclaimed presidential aspirations in 1968. To Mr, Greenblatt, these
signs are deceptive.

Illustrating this “deception,” he said
that 13,000 more troops have been sent to
Vietnam and more bombs have been
dropped on North Vietnam after March
31 (when Mr. Johnson announced the
bombing halt) than before. This bombing,
the speaker claimed, is taking place in
Vietnam’s most populated area, up to 250
mile north of the DMZ.

"Spectacle of bombs"
To counter this diplomatic move, Mr.
Johnson issued the March 31 statement,
but so quickly that the bombing policy
for the next day could not be altered.
This precipitated “the spectacle of bombs
250 miles north of the DMZ.”

Mr. Greenblatt theorizes that the speech
was only a propaganda ploy and that Mr.
Johnson did not expect the enemy to accept. When they did, he delayed on such
issues as an acceptable site for peace
talks in order to gain time to form a coherent policy.
Describing the spectre of chemical and
biological warfare, he said he believes
that the war cannot be won otherwise.
A purple heart marine veteran in the aud-

ience concurred.

The anti-war speaker concluded with a
to resistance: “As long as things continue as they are, Hubert Humphrey will
not walk the streets if I have anything
to do with it”.
call

Mr.

Greenblatt’s address concluded

that “the war goes on . . . and so does the
Resistance.” Sponsored by the Buffalo
Draft Resistance Union, the program was
designed to bring the Buffalo community
“out of a summer lull caused by a false
sense of security.”
The speaker is a former mathematics
professor at Cornell University who left
academia and

became the national di-

rector of the October March on Washing-

ton.

Resigns to gain freedom
Turning to U.S. politics, Mr. Greenblatt
theorized that dissent here was more intense before it was channeled into respectability by the McCarthy and Kennedy
candidacies—too intense for Mr. Johnson
to freely continue the war. The president
therefore resigned to gain free reign, to
create a climate of false promise disarming to his opposition, and to place in
office a man ■'favorable to his thought
(Vice President Humphrey).
He also cited a New York Times report
recently that there will be no draft callups in August or September; opposition

is silenced until after the election.

Mr. Greenblatt also gave his explanation of the March 31 announcement of
President Johnson. March 29, Pham Van
Dong (the North Vietnamese Prime
Minister) agreed tojalk to Charles Collingwood, then visiting Hanoi, about the circumstances under which North Vietnam
would negotiate. The date set was April
3. Obviously a major policy
statement,
this message was relayed to Washington
March 30, taking the President by complete surprise, according to Mr. Greenblatt.

Debbi has studied voice, ballet and acting, Her parents have poured thousands
of dollars into her pursuit of stardom
(singing lessons alone were $20 a week).
What is really surprising however, is the
fact that there are hundreds of girls like
Debbi who are equally talented.
The recording industry is one of the
most difficult citadels of art to breach.
First, you must have a contact, an ‘in.’
Only those with pull and ‘chutzpah’ are
even going to get this far. Once you know
someone, you submit a tape and this is
made to run a gauntlet surpassing anything the Iroquois ever dreamed up. The
would-be singer stands on the quality of
his voice alone —there are no electronic
gimmicks at his command.
Only after the tape has passed the
screening committee does it go to the
A4R man. He has the final say for he is
being paid as much as $250,000 a year for

Yet there are many hundreds who try

not guarantee permanency. The alchemy
of personality, the mystery of charisma
must be there too. And this quality is
impossible to measure.
So Debbi Lynn and her countless cohorts will continue to seek. They will
pour their lives into ‘making it.’ They all

New School of Architecture
to begin operation in 1969
by Marge Anderson
Campus

Editor

“When using a technological approach

to city planning, we must first look at the

city itself—and its problems and its opportunities, We must allow solutions to
develop from our understanding of what
the city is, and what we want it to be.”
This observation was made by John P.

Eberhard, newly appointed dean of the
recently established School of Architecture and Environmental Design.
Only after an understanding of the city
is achieved, he feels, can we develop the
new technologies needed to design and
build great cities of the future.
Mr. Eberhard is a registered architect
and former director of the Institute for

Innovations introduced

Applied Technology at the National Bu
reau of Standards in Washington, D C.
The first students to attend the new

school will be enrolled in the fall of 1969.
During the coming academic year, plans
for the direction that the school will take
will be formulated.
New professionals
The still undetermined nature of the
school was an important factor in Mr. Eberhard’s deicsion to accept the post here.
He sees an urgent social need for new
kinds of design professionals and expects
to develop a school here that will answer
that need. In the next year he hopes to
clarify just what they might be and to
formulate the academic programs which
will train them.
The school will not be “a conventional
school of architecture which trains the
architect simply as an artist,” he explained. “Environmental design should be
the infusion of our technological processes with a sense of man's individual and
social needs, so that the resultant products reflect their users' life styles and
aspirations."

The school will be based in three of the
University’s faculties—Arts and Letters,
Engineering and Applied Sciences, and
Social Sciences and Administration, Mr.
Eberhard will receive a joint appointment as professor in Arts and Letters and
in Engineering and Applied Sciences.
The inter-faculty base of the school, according to Provost Eric Larrabee of the
Faculty of Arts and Letters, “is an indication of our hope that the school will offer
training which takes technology and the
social environment into account, as well
as the asthetic problems with which architects have traditionally dealt."

the students

Included in the planning conferences
is a lecture given by a volunteer faculty
member describing his activities outside
the classroom and a 25-minute film designed to introduce new students to the
services available to them on campus.
Edward I. Dale, assistant coordinator of
student activities, commented that these
features, among others, have made this
year’s planning conferences a definite
improvement over “the all time low which
they reached last year.”
When asked if the main thrust of summer planning conferences was simply to
accomplish the necessary bureaucratic
maneuvers required to place incoming
freshmen or if the planning conferences
attempted to help the student adjust to,

and become an integral part of, the Uni-

versity community, Miss Fancher replied
that “these people are not college freshmen when they come here—they are high
school seniors. Any adjusting they do
will have to be donejn toe* own when
Some attempt is made to expose fresh-

men to student views through use of student aides. These aides are chosen, ac-

cording to Miss Fancher, on the basis of
their maturity and enthusiasm toward the

program. However, Miss Fancher found
that some of the applicants were enthusiastic, but had a negative attitude toward
the University.

“Quite frankly,” Miss Fancher said. “1
don’t want that sort of person talking to
the freshmen.”
Miss Fancher noted that the effective-

ness of summer planning conferences as a
means of introducing and assimilating
freshmen into the college community is
severely limited by the present two and
one-half day approach, which leaves them
to solve any real problems of adjustment
only after they have arisen.

Jazz groups to appear
Rochester will be host for the “Schlitz
Salute to Jazz” in War Memorial Auditorium Aug. 2, 8 p.m. This jazz concert, produced by George Wein, is one of 24 such
concerts to be presented this summer by
the Newport Jazz Festival in cities from
coast to coast.
Jazz grew up along with the rock music
era. Its influence rubbed off on the old
rock and now it is a constant source of
innovation in pop music.
The top jazz names assembled for this
one-night Rochester concert are: Dionne
Warwick, known recently tor hits like
“Alfie” and “I Say a Little Prayer;” the
Cannonball Adderley Quintet, featuring

their national bestseller “Mercy, Mercy,
the Thelonious Monk Quartet,
who rank among the best in the history
of jazz, and the Herbie Mann Quintet,
foremost in the movement to include
more ethnic musics in jazz.
Mercy;”

Also appearing

will be the Gary Burton

Quartet. Although relatively new in the

business, they have already made their
name in the jazz world.
This important group of top name jazz
artists is expected to draw a capacity
crowd. Therefore all seats will be reserved. Tickets are available in the Norton Hall Ticket Ofice. Checks can be
made payable to “Schlitz Salute to Jazz.”

Tower House Council is promoting

resident involvement with campus
“Offering activities to the people of
Tower” is one of the primary functions
of the innovative summer Tower House
Council. For the first time in its history,
the council is operating during the summer months.
Peter Anelli, president, explained that
the purpose of the council is to “get Tower
summer residents involved in the activities of the whole campus.”
Activities have included a softball
league, discounts for concert and theater
tickets and a touch football league. Coffee
hours and movies are also planned by the
council.
Meeting each week with the assistance
of advisor William Conroy, the council
members approved the continuation of

the penal code and open house schedule
that were in operation during the academic year. The open houses are Fridays
from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m., Saturdays from
2 p.m. to 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. to 2 a.m, and
Sundays from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.
The council coordinates activities for
the residents of five full floors of the dormitory. Three representatives from each
floor comprise the body of the council.
Tower is the only dormitory having a
council this summer, operating with funds
obtained from the Inter-Residence Coun
cil.
Other summer officers include Phil Mor
ris, vice president; Harris Berger, secre
tary-treasurer and Jack Weet, correspond

‘2001: Space Odyssey’

Special to The Spectrum

During the last moments of a showing

someone called out quite audibly: “But it

day’s gleaming corporation headquarters,
the end result of the passion for orderliness, cleanliness of lines, and good design that flight seems to have fostered in
us. For if one wants a glimpse of tomorrow, he needn’t go to Expo or even to
movies like ”2001.” He need only go to
airports with their crisp efficient personnel, their air of important and constant
movement.

The reactions are worth consideration.
The first was not just the piqued response
of someone who thought he had paid too
much for a bum movie. People don’t call
out like that very often in a movie theater. It's just not done.
That someone did in this case is some
indication of the audience involvement
this film asks for and, I think, gets. We
want, the fellow who called out wants,
the movie to make sense; we want to
know what it is telling us. It is a movie
that creates in its viewers a desire to understand. How many movies do that?

CAO brings Indian
youths to visit campus
Wednesday afternoon approximately 35
youths from the Gowanda Indian Reservation visited the State University of Buffalo
as guests of the Student Association and
the Community Action Organization

The youths', ranging in age from 14 to

18 years, started their visit with lunch
provided by the University Food Service.
A tour of campus followed. Included in
the tour were visits to the nuclear reactor,
the dormitories, and a laboratory facility
in Acheson Hall.
Later the visitors moved on to Norton
Hall, where they were officially welcomed
by Robert O’Neil, assistant to the president, and Tracy Cottone, second vice president of the Student Association. A representative of Admissions and Records
pointed out opportunities for enrollment
in the University.
A spokesman from the Office of Financial Aid informed the youths of financial
assistance available to those interested.
The talks were followed by a movie prepared by the Instructional Communica-

the interim campus. There the youths saw
a 464 computer and received a brief explanation of its operation.
The trip to this campus is one of several tours of local colleges offered to
young people on the Gowanda Reservation. According to Michael Green of Community Action Organization, recent action
by Congress has set up the program to
“get them interested in higher education,
or even just finishing high school.”
He added the tours were intended to
give an overview of what college life is
really like. The participating youths include both students and high school dropouts, many of whom have no conception
of what a college is. Mr. Green hopes
trips such as this will widen their horizons.

Editor

Jim and Carol K. were married in September while attending Columbia University. He was a senior majoring in education, specializing in modern languages.
About mid-October Jim heard that
draft boards were decreasing teacher deferments. He became apprehensive and
visited the counseling service on campus.
They advised him that one of the most
effective means to avoid the draft was to
move to Canada, Jim and Carol were
not sure they wished to make such a
drastic move, but they decided to visit
Toronto during Christmas vacation.
While in Canada, Carol, a native of
Connecticut, discovered that she did not
particularly favor the lower temperatures
characteristic of the country, but they
visited the Toronto Anti-Draft Programme. The Programme informed them
that since Jim stih had several months of
his. deferment left, the most advisable
method for entering Canada would be to
apply through the mail. Jim was still extremely wary of this process, so the Programme decided to go over the procedure with him. All applications for entry
into Canada are based on a point system,
given in nine categories. Points must
total at least 50 of a possible 100.
Point allocation
The first category is education and
training for which a maximum of 20
points can be given. One point is allotted
for every year of completed education so
Jim was entitled to 16 points. A maximum of 15 points are given for personal
assessment. Jim was married, was fairly
clean-cut and his parents had agreed to
lend him $1200 for his move. This gave
him 12 points.
The next classification is occupational
demand. In the Toronto area there is a
great demand for teachers, so he was allowed the maximum 15 points. He was
also given the maximum of ten points
in the age category because he was between the ages of 18 and 35. A job
promise can entitle a person to ten points
on the application, but these can only be
given when one applies at the border or
from within the country. This deprived

Jim of any possible points even though
the Ontario Education Department had
assured him of a teaching position in the
fall.
Occupational skill entitles one to a
maximum of ten points. Jim received
eight because he had his degree but not
his certification.

Languages and employment
A knowledge of English and French en-

titles an applicant to a maximum of ten
points. Jim could speak, read and write
English fluently but he was not so adept
in French. He only received nine points.
Five points are also given if one has a
relative residing in Canada. But he has
none.
The final category is employment opportunities in his destined area which can
entitle an applicant to five points. As
mentioned earlier, the Toronto area does
have a great demand for teachers so Jim
was given four points. Jim had a total of
74 points which was well over the required number and he left feeling confident. (It was not necessary for his wife
to go through this process.)
Jim received the necessary forms from
the Immigration Bureau and returned to
New York. There he decided that there
was no harm in applying, so about Jan.
15 he sent his school transcripts, marriage
license and references from his employer
and professors along with his application.

Final decision
During second semester Jim and Carol
began seriously thinking of their future.
Though not activists, they still were very
much concerned with the war and the
possible consequences of the draft. The
draft call had also been increased in their
area. At graduation Jim made the decision to immigrate to Canada, About
three weeks later they received their

notice of acceptance.
Early in July, they made their move.
Jim had applied for a teaching position in
April and upon his immigration is now
assured of a job in September. He is
presently working for his certification.
Carol has found a temporary job in one
stores and is in
of the city’s department
good position for acceptance at the University of Toronto in the fall.
They have found an apartment, and
though they have not lived there long,
they have decided that Toronto is definitely a pleasurable place and are optimistic about the future.

It sounds almost impossible to believe
but the 1968 State University of Buffalo
Ice Hockey Club will be even better than
the 1967 (15-0) squad which won the Finger Lakes Hockey League pennant.
Credit Howie Piaster, general manager,
with another superhuman recruitment job.
How Howie does it is a mystery to all, but
come November Buffalo hockey fans will
be cheering for some of the finest players
ever to- wear blue and white uniforms.
The scoring potential of Plaster’s recruits
is fantastic. To say these Buffalo rookies
have impressive credentials is an under-

Terry Quenville—Right wing—transfer
from Canton Tech.
Playing on the same line with Caruso,
Quenville also had a big season with Canton. Terry scored 16 goals and had 18 assists during the 1968 season. A good skater who was a thorn in the Bulls’ side when
Buffalo played Canton twice last season,
Quenville will be a welcome addition to
the 1968 Bulls.
Brian Boyer—Defenseman
Canton

Tech.

It appears Plaster made a clean sweep
of Canton's outstanding players when he
corralled Boyer. A two-year letterman who
was voted Canton’s best defenseman,
Boyer is considered a “hard hitter” on
body checking. Brian scored five goals
and 12 assists during the 1967 campaign.

Robert Albano—Right Wing—Welland
Junior College.
The word from the Buffalo Athletic Department is that the Hockey Bulls have
quite a prize in Albano. Albano, who
played for Welland in '67, was named to
every conceivable Junior B All-Star Team
including the All-Ontario squad. Bob also
received the Paul Hodowan Trophy as the
leading scorer (22 goaIs-19 assists) in Jun.
B competition for the '67 season. Albano,
who has played hockey since seven, has
led every team he played on in scoring.

statement.

Here’s a look at Plaster’s hockey recruits for the fall:
Tom Caruso—When you talk about raw
hockey talent, you talk about Tom Caruso, An excellent skater, Tom was voted
to the 1967 Finger Lakes Hockey League
All-Star team along with Buffalo’s Lome
Rombough. Caruso holds two all-time Canton Scoring records. Tom’s 60 goals scored
in his 2 seasons at Canton, as well as his
119 career points, are both Canton marks.
He will probably team with Rombough
and Bill Tape to give Buffalo a dream line
for 1968.

lege of Hamilton in an exhibition game
during the 1967 season. General Manager
Plaster was so impressed with Bundy that
he made a concerted effort and succeeded
in bringing Bob to Buffalo.
Bundy, whose father George was a professional hockey player with the Toronto
Maple Leafs prior to World War II, is
rated an excellent prospect.
He scored 24 goals and 30 assists to lead
Mohawk in scoring during the ’67 campaign. A repeat performance for Buffalo
is not unlikely.

Michael Dunn—Goalie—Fort Erie Junior College.
The feeling at the end of the 1967 campaign was that Buffalo needed a 2nd goaltender to spell all-leaguer Jim Hamilton.
Plaster, who doesn’t settle for second best,
recruited Mike Dunn to compete with
Hamilton.
Dunn is the athlete’s athlete. At 5’ 11”,
185 lbs. Dunn at Ridgeway High School
earned varsity letters in football, lacrosse,
and baseball.
An outstanding football player, he was
invited for a tryout at the Hamilton Tigers
Football camp.
One more thing about Dunn—he was
voted the best Junior B goaltender in Ontario as well as making the Junior B allstar team for both 1966-67 and 1967-68
seasons. Dunn is a good one. Jim Hamilton
will have to work hard to be the Bulls’
starting goalee in the fall.
Ronald Sunstrom—Defenseman
Mohawk College.
Along with Bundy, Sunstrom comes
from Mohawk with impressive credentials.
Ron was named the Hawk’s outstanding
defenseman for the 1967 68 season. A former star of the Stamford Junior B’s,
Ronnie will bolster an already strong Buffalo defense.
Robert Goody—Defenseman—Kitchener.
One of the less publicized of Howie
Piasters recruits, Goody could turn out to
be the “sleeper" of the whole lot. Plaster,
a fine scout in his own right, is really impressed with Goody’s defensive potential.
Every hockey team, including the Bulls,
needs a “hatchetman,” a rugged defenseman who will rough up the opposition.
Plaster’s report on Goody reads; “At
6’ 1" 200 lbs. Goody is the strongest defenseman I have ever seen.”
The overall potential of Plaster’s nine
recruits is tremendous. When these nine
rookies join veterans such as Lome Rombough, Billy Tape, Frank Lewis and Bill
Newman, the 1968 Hockey Bulls will have
to be rated the odds-on choice to capture
their second straight Finger Lakes Hockey

Tough is the word for the Bulls’ defensive line. Urich has five lettermen returning, and they are all good ones. Veterans Bob Kovey (5 feet 11 inches, 202
pounds) and John Przybycien (6 feet 1
inch, 200 pounds) have the inside track
for the defensive end slots. Though
neither Kovey nor Przybycien has that
real big size, both are quick enough to
put a good rush on enemy quarterbacks.
Senior Tom Murphy (5 feet, 194 pounds)
and junior Prentice Menley provide adequate depth at defensive end.
It’s all smiles at the defensive tackle
position, where big Joe Ricelli (6 feet 2
inches, 245 pounds) and Dan Walgate (6
feet 2 inches, 255 pounds) return to rough
up the opposition. Coach Urich is especially high on Walgate who could move
into the All-East category this season.
The tackle depth is excellent. Russ Beck,
a 6 foot 3 inch, 232 pound junior, continues to improve, and should see plenty
of reserve action. Barry Atkinson, a 6
foot 4 inch, 245 pound sophomore tackle,
had a fine spring practice and could be a
future star.

Linebackers

Next to offensive receiving, there is no
position in which the Bulls are as well
fortified as in their linebacking crew.
All-East Mike Luzny (5 feet 9 inches, 212
pounds) heads the list of Urich’s five
returning linebackers.
Luzny,
who

blocked four punts, intercepted one pass
and recovered several key fumbles dur.
,ing the 1967 season, will be pressing for
All-American honors in '68. Luz underwent knee surgery during the spring,
but according to Urich is “coming along
okay, and should be ready for Septem°
ber.”
Veterans John Lupienski (5 feet 10
inches, 210 pounds), Dave Richner (5 feet
11 inches, 197 pounds), Don Sabo (5 feet
10 inches, 210 pounds) and Jim Mosher
(6 feet 1 inch, 212 pounds) combine
with
Luzny to give the Bulls one of the best
linebacking corps in the East.
Urich further improved the linebacking
situation when he shifted offensive tackle
Scott Clark (6 feet, 210 pounds) to outside
linebacker. Clark was so outstanding as
a strong-side linebacker during spring
practice that he probably earned a start
ing job in September. Ed Kershaw, a fine
prospect with the '67 frosh, makes the
linebacking picture look that much better.

Defensive backs

This is where the Bulls must improve
for ’68, Lettermen Gary Grubbs (5 feet
9 inches, 175 pounds) and Dick Horn
(6 feet 1 inch, 188 pounds) have some experience, but Grubbs underwent a knee
operation during the off-season and Horn
is weak on long pass patterns.
There’s no doubt that help is needed.
It will have to come from a group of
promising, but inexperienced sophomores.
One of these sophomores is Nick Kish, a
quick 5 foot 11 inch tailback who has
been switched to defensive halfback. Another impressive soph is Len Nixon, a
5 foot 11 inch, 180 pound speedster from
Cleveland, who has looked good at defensive safety, Urich remains cautiously
optimistic about his ’68 defensive secondary.
‘There is inexperience,” admits the
Doe, “but the overall ability is good."
Doc Urich sums up the defense this
way; “Qur defense has more good players
and morfe- ability for the ’68 season. Our
only inexperience will be in the defensive secondary.”
Next week: The opposition.

Biochemistry maintains lead
The summer session softball league is
nearing the halfway point and the Division races are really beginning to tighten.
Division A still sports two undefeated
teams—the Golfers (4-0) and Biology (3-0),
while Psychology (3-1) and Microbiology
(2-1) are coming on strong, and cannot be
disregarded.
But the real excitement seems to" be
generated in Division B where a group
of
young undergraduates called the Brooklyns (3-0) threaten to topple defending
league champions, Biochemistry (4-0). The
Brooklyns and Biochemistry clash next

good one.
Chemical Engineering (2-0) and homerun happy Computer Services (3-1), both
in the thick of the fight, should give Biochemistry and the Brooklyns a run for
their money.

bring reforms to
Hornsey College
by Sheldon Bergman
Special to Th» Spoctrum

LONDON, England—Students at Hornsey College of Art here have developed
a new style of student power. They concentrate on working within the system for

reform.

This past month, they occupied the
school’s buildings until their representatives were allowed to present their demands for reform. They held out for
six weeks until they achieved results.
There were no riots. No violence. And
more suprisingly, a good deal of popular
support.
Hornsey College is a fragmented institution, with its departments spread
throughout the city of London. Its apathetic students were asked by faceless leaders to participate in discussion on how
the college could be improved.
Everybody was surprised when 400 of
the school’s 900 students showed. They
voted for a sit-in. This is where the situation becomes a case study of peaceful

persuasion.

A student delegation worked-out ground
rules with police. As a result, police refused to remove students for trespass,
and the students maintained occupied
buildings in good condition.
A press department was organized.
(Something American student leaders
should have realized long ago.) No political philosophy was touted; students
merely concentrated on articulating positive demands, refusing to allow one single
rabble-imaged leader to emerge.
Results: Appalled by short cafeteria
hours, they put food service on a 23-hour
basis. After three weeks, food prices were
cut. And they now have genuine power
in formulation of school policies. Hornsey has been reconstructed.
Junior faculty joined forces with the
students.
But the most amazing thing was commercial press treatment of the situation.
When a reporter entered the college, a
press officer quickly answered all questions honestly and intelligently. As a result, the movement received much favorable press play, and the public did not
react with its customary hostility, A
tactic U.S. students might do well to copy.

ghosts of her student days. The school’s
prison-like nature with its massive yet
spacious composition, symbolizing the
jts inhabitants, is revealed imsp ir j t
mediately by a sign: “STRICTLY ENpoRCED: KEEP OFF THE GRASS.”
Images and soi mds from the
in the present, cinematic creations of
Therese’s memory. The technique is reminiscent of Antonioni’s “Blow Up” and is
our introduction to its director’s (Meltzer) electic style.
Like Bergman’s “Persona,” Meltzer
probes at the psychological, but his subtlety does not seem to slice past the razor
edged dimensions of the photographic
film. Isabelle, whose blond hair flows
behind her like the clouds floating across
the sky, is a younger version of Therese’s
over-affectionate mother.
This obviously simple Freudian analysis
of lesbian love somehow leaves the movie
unsatisfying, its artistic culmination in-

completable.

Yet the movie can draw our souls into
its illusory reality. The lonely room in
which Therese’s mind is enclosed is a
pathos of which many of us are aware.
In the strain of the struggle either to
relieve herself through masturbation or
to frustrate her physical and mental desires, human guilt is cinematically displayed and a vulnerable sore of the audiBaudelaire’s poetry sings to the sensuality of Isabelle and Therese as they unite
in the physical and spiritual harmony of
love. The union of two members of the
same sex climaxed in fulfillment may surprise some people.
Actresses Essy Persson and Anna Gael
are beautiful beings, which probably disappoints the males in the audience, considering the roles they play. The acting,
faced with the biases of the audience’s
expectations and beliefs, was nevertheless
made convincing to a degree by their
talented performances.

An artistic creation
The photography and music add to
Meltzer’s efforts to make the film whole
—an artistic creation. Though the film
was shot in black and white, the trees,
grass and soil from the earth take on
dimensions of color in the human imagination through skillful editing and photography. And though we can not dance
to the music, at times we can become
one with it.
“Therese and Isabelle” is a shadow of
many movies. It does not completely
cover the ground, but its coolness does
shade some aspects of human experience.

Hershey orders halt of
pre-induction physicals

.

Q: Why doesn't the University set up some type of outdoor theater by the fountain area? A screen could be hung outside of Norton
Hall and the projector placed at Lockwood Library.
A; As you know, silent movies are being shown outdoors this
summer and have received many favorable comments. The Norton
Hall staff, however, thought your idea a very good one and are now
investigating its feasibility. Each year they talk about the possibility
of live theater outdoors but find the costs prohibitive Ynnr irioa u a
more practical one and perhaps it can become a reality soon.
Q: How long does it take to have an official transcript of a student record prepared and mailed?
A: The Office of Admissions and Records stated that “transcripts are mailed within one week from the date requested, providing
the student has no financial obligation to the University and has not
indicated that the transcript should be held for further information
(i.e., grades, entry of degree, etc.) When a transcript is needed within
a shorter length of time and the student has indicated a deadline date
on the transcript request form, the transcript is prepared and mailed
by the date specified. A post card which indicates the date transcripts were mailed is always sent to the student. Those who feel that
transcripts have not been received by the addressee may find that this
was due to their giving an incomplete or incoferct address on the
transcript request form. Also, there might be a delay in processing
records at the receiving institution.”
Q: Why put freshmen in Allenhurst and not in the dorms on
campus?
A: Mr. Clifford B, Wilson, assistant to the director of University
Housing, stated that “it is the housing office’s policy to honor upperclass hall requests. In past years there have been an overwhelming
number of upperclass males requesting Tower. Thus, freshmen were
placed in Allenhurst. This past year we had a substantial number of
upperclassmen request Allenhurst and so placed a number of freshmen in Tower. This coming year will find an even larger number of

WASHINGTON (CPS)—The severe financial problems plaguing the federal government as a result of the Vietnam war
are beginning to take their toll on the
—
Selective Service System.
Selective Service Director Lewis B.
Hershey has ordered all local draft
boards to schedule no more pre-induction
physical examinations for August or September. The move, in effect, will limit the
draft between now and late October to
persons who already have passed their
physicals, or have received notices to take
them.
Gen. Hershey said physical examinations were being temporarily halted as an
economy measure made necessary by the
$6 billion reduction in Federal spending
ordered by Congress for the fiscal year
which began July 1. Gen. Hershey also rescinded the filling of vacancies and promotions in the Selective Service System
until further notice.
Selective Service officials say the suspension of physical examinations will
have no effect on their job of supplying
manpower for the military. They also emphasized that the “embargo may be lifted
at any time.” As long as the suspension
is in effect, however, all draftees will be
taken from the pool of “slightly more
than 100,000 men” who already have taken
and passed their physicals, but have not
yet been inducted, officials said.

relatively light until about January, when
they will skyrocket unless there is a major cutback in the size of the armed ser-

vices before then.
Mrs. Vetter, an expert on the effect of
the draft on the nation’s manpower needs,
saysTren. Hershey’s order suspending physical examinations will have both a good
and a bad effect on college graduates and
graduate students who no longer have de-

ferments.

One graduate semester possible
“Assuming the order stays in effect and
the Selective Service System has to take
its share of the budget cut, this will delay the induction of many graduates and
graduate students who have not taken a
physical until at least November,” Mrs.
Vetter said. “It will allow many students
to start graduate school and possibly get
in at least one semester of work before
being taken.”
But Mrs. Vetter also said the suspension
on physicals may reduce the number of
high school graduates not planning to go
to college who volunteer for the armed
services. She explained that many noncollege men tend to volunteer for the service when they feel the draft breathing
down their necks after they are called to
take a physical. “They don’t have a student deferment and they know they’re going to have to go, so they volunteer for
the branch of service they perfer. But
this order cancels physicals for these
young men as well as for college graduates,” she said.
“Every time you lose a volunteer, you
add another draftee,” Mrs. Vetter said.
The more the draft call is increased, the
greater the burden becomes on college
graduates who already have received their

freshmen in Tower. In fact, Tower will be almost one-half freshmen.”
“We in housing think this total integration by classes is a plus, as
it has many educational benefits.”

I went to the Poetry Room

closed door with a small sign saying: “Please come
in.” The first time I saw it, I thought it was not
the Poetry Room because it seemed uninviting and
hidden. When I went into it, I was surprised!
An alarm sounded as long as the door was
open. I went in there in order to look at E, E.

“Yes, fans, you heard it right, these are committed delegates, or should be. The Alabamians
have voted for Dick Nixon, but in their excitement
mistakenly called him the ‘next President of the
United States.’ This is not necessarily so, according to usually reliable sources. Also, they mentioned something about a ‘great state’ and that
adjective ‘great’ is highly suspect among many
knowledgeable political observers. With that in

Draft Union to present
program on Resistance
“2 + 2 is still on our minds.” To remind the rest of the University community, the Buffalo Draft Resistance Union is
presenting a two day program based on
the theme “the war goes on . . . and so
does the Resistance.”

The program will begin Tuesday with a
performance by the New Chicago Funk
Lunch, a rock band, at 8 p.m. in the Dorothy Hass Lounge. A poetry reading will
also be conducted at that time.
Wednesday’s activities will include a
noon rally at the fountain in front of Norton Hall. The key speaker at the rally
will be Bruce Beyer, head of the Buffalo

Draft Resistance

Union. Russel Smith,

spokesman for the Union, indicated that
“other local people will also speak."

Mr. Russell, a graduate student in the
department of modern languages, further
explained that “future Resistance plans
and activities will be discussed at that
time.”

At 8 p.m. Wednesday, Robert Greenblack will speak in the Dorothy Haas
Lounge. Mr. Greenblack met in Paris recently with members of both the United
States and North Vietnamese delegations
to the peace talks. “This is a privilege
that very few people have had,” Mr. Russell explained.-

A former mathematics professor at Cornell University. Mr. Greenblack was a national director of the National Mobilization March on Washington in October. He
travelled in Southeast Asia from Apirl 22
to May 30, spending part of that time in
Hanoi.

What's happening
Mr. Russell described Mr. Greenback's
talk as “an insider’s account about what's

happening in North Vietnam and Paris.
He will tell where things are going to go
on the battlefield and at the peace table.''
According to Mr. Russell, the program
will help to emphasize the fact “that people are still dying in Vietnam even though
people here have been socked into a summer lull by the peace talks. The Resistance is still growing and developing a
method of dealing with a war machine
that’s still actively functioning.
“Even though the people in Buffalo are
trying to escape the heat and sultriness of
summer, people in Vietnam are being napalmed to death. The real heat is still
very much on in Vietnam, the heat that
rains out of the skies burning bodies.

"To remind people that the far-off Asian
war is hitting close to home, the Buffalo
Draft Resistance Union is sponsoring the
series of speakers."

las suggesl

crating by January 1971.
The Citizens Committee on Inter-Municipal Affairs (CCIA) concluded after nine
months of study that an increasing crime
problem can be solved only by a metropolitan approach. There are presently 29 separate police departments in Erie County.
The committee, chaired by Gerald C,
Salterelli, urged the County Legislature to
approve the plan by Sept. 4. If they do, it
will be decided by the people in a refer-

endum Nov. 5. To survive the referendum,
the proposal would have to get a majority vote in each of Erie County’s three
municipal categories: cities, towns and
villages.

Seven member board
Under the provisions of the report, entitled “Consolidation of Police Services in
Erie County,” the force would be headed
by a seven-member Board of Police Commissioners. The members, including a fulltime, salaried chairman, would be appoint-

ed by the county executive, subject to
County Legislature approval. The board

an attempt to eliminate political interference in police matters, the chief would
have “tenure in office until the legal re
tirement age, unless he should fail to perform his duties as required by law." He
would be chosen by the board of commis-

sioners.
Policemen would be trained for two
separate patrol systems, one serving Buffalo and other urban areas, and the other
serving non-urban towns and villages.
The county would be set up in 11 districts, with a commander in charge of
each. The Sheriff’s Department would no
longer have any law enforcement duties.
The committee feeis that police salaries
should be upgraded and that “moonlighting," holding a seccnd job, should not be
allowed. It recommends that existing personnel of police forces throughout the
county be merged, with no loss of pay,
and whenever possible, at equal rank.
A metropolitan force has had scattered
support in recent years, but did not seem
to be a possibility for the near future until the report was released.

Girl attacked on campus
A female student complained to campus
police Monday afternoon that she was attacked in front of Hayes Hall.
Buffalo City Police have arrested a suspect, a 17-year-old student at Seneca Vocational High School. They are also questioning him about an assault of a 19-yearold married woman, who was attacked in
Bailey Ave. about a half hour earlier.
Police said the attack at Hayes Hall
occurred shortly before 2 p.m., when a
youth stopped the girl to ask what time it
was. He allegedly seized her from behind. She screamed, and he fled across
the loop.

A summer student, Paul Sciabarrasi,
said he was driving through the Main St.
campus entrance when he saw the youth
being pursued by a girl in a yellow dress
and a nun.
He said he overtook them in the Baird
Hall parking lot, and Joined the pursuit
in his automobile. He lost track of the
youth on Allenhurst Rd., he said. But
saw him again on Main St.
Mr. Sciabarrasi said he and two friends
apprehended the suspect at the corner of
Main St. and Minnesota Ave.
Police booked the youth on charges of
harassment.

leaders of the Toronto Anti-Draft Programme. There she heard the following
stories about draft-age immigrants to Canada. They are about two different but
typical incidents involving the problems
and circumstances that arise. Names are
changed and some points have been
edited for clarity, but the content is factual.
pill B. was a 19-year-old high school
graduate living in New Orleans. He was
working as a garage mechanic when he

received his induction notice.
About two weeks before the date he had
a conversation with his sister’s boyfriend,
a soldier stationed at Fort Polk, La. They
talked about the intensive jungle training
that the army center conducted and Bill
wondered about the necessity of learning
to kill effectively.
When he told the soldier of his apprehension, he jokingly resopnded that “there
is” always Canada. In the following days
Bill seriously began thinking, not so much
of Canada, but rather of why he was entering the service and the possible consequences. Three days before induction
he made a desperate choice, to leave for
Canada.
Only way out
He did not want to fight and this
seemed like the only way out. He left
in his old '59 Ford with most of his belongings and with the thought that someday he would return to explain.
His car made it as far as State College,
Penna, —location of Penn State University.
Arriving at the school he asked some students where he could find a place for the
night. They asked him where he was
going and nervously he answered.
They referred him to the college’s draft
information center and there he received
the address of the Toronto Anti-Draft Programme and a few dollars to buy a bus
ticket. Bill entered Canada as a visitor
and immediately contacted the Anti-Draft
Programme on Yonge St., Toronto.
After a few phone calls, a professor

from the University of Toronto offered a
room where he could stay. Talking to him,
Bill became more convinced that he possibly might want to remain in the country.
On the following day he returned to the
office to discuss his plans and problems.
He would have to apply for landed immigrant status which would entitle him to
work in Canada.
Documents needed
He needed his birth certificate, school
transcripts, personal and work references
and money for the application. At this
lime Bill made an appointment one month
in advance with the Immigration Service.
While wailing for his appointment he
searched for a job and found that most
of I he people were sympathetic, but would
not employ him till he received his immigrant status. He found some odd jobs
around the professor’s home and the programme supplied a little money.
Finally the day arrived when he had to
report to the Immigration Service on University Ave. Bill had received his high
school transcript, the Programme had lent
him $500 and the professor wrote a character reference.
He decided against writing to his former
employer, feeling that "his prejudices
would probably do him more harm than
good. The interviewer asked him many
questions concerning his age, education.

immigrant status.

No regret
Now, six months later, Bill is living in
a boarding house and working as an apprentice tool and die maker. He has written home and explained but does not regret his decision.
Programme personnel were more specific with the following incident due to
familiarity with the circumstances.
Don R. was a junior majoring in history
at the State University of Buffalo. He
had been an activist and received information from the Buffalo Draft Information Center. Don had visited Canada many
times and liked the country. He was receiving failing grades which left him the
choice of struggling to remain in school
—which would probably result in his facing the draft—or going to Canada.
At this point he also realized he was attending school for the lone purpose of
getting a deferment and that education
would be more meaningful to him later.
In Toronto they had told him it would
be best to apply at the border for immigrant status. So he stopped attending
classes and got a job at Bethlehem Steel
Corp. During the time he worked, he
saved $700 and enough money to buy a
’62 Dodge. Driving is the most advisable
way to enter Canada.
He made several more visits to Toronto
to look for a future job and to arrange last
minute details.
A few days prior to leaving, he got a
hair cut and made certain he had ail necessary documents. He drove to the Rainbow Bridge and told the customs officer
he wished to apply for immigrant status.

Customs problem

The officer was extremely rude and told
him he needed medical forms and at least
a thousand dollars and refused to grant
Don immigrant status. He continued to
Toronto anyway as a visitor and was told
by the Programme that the immigration
department could demand medical forms,
but that he definitely had enough money.
They also told him not to return to the
Rainbow Bridge and to avoid the Peace
Bridge, where some officers had a reputation for misinforming potential immigrants.
He returned, obtained medical documents and tried the Queenston-Lewiston
Bridge, as advised. This time the immigration officer was very courteous and
helpful.

Don had a promise of a job at a factory
outside of Toronto which counted in his
favor on the application. When the immigration officer asked him if he had applied before, Don became nervous and replied no. All documents in the cases of
refusals are returned to applicants at the
border, so even though it was not correct
to be dishonest, there was no danger of
a check on his answer. After a period of
questioning, he was admitted as an immigrant.

When Don arrived in Toronto, he found
a room at a commune, and presently he is
living there, working at his new job. He
eventually plans to complete his educa
tion.
Next week a case of a young married
couple and their decision to leave
United States will tell more of the requirements and procedures involved in moving
to Canada.

UUAB wants to rouse shut-ins

‘Acts Without Words’

*

The University Union Activities Board has announced the start
of two new programs for summer "shut ins."
The first of the programs to be started was free game hours,
which are currently in effect. Students may use the pool and pingpong tables and bowling lanes in the basement of Norton Hall free
of charge every Wednesday. On alternating weeks the hours will
be from 10 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
The second program will be put into effect tomorrow. Busses to

and will leave at 9:30 a.m. They will be ready for boarding at Sherkston at 4 p.m. and will depart at 4:30 p.m., returning to Norton Hall.
Tickets are available at the Norton Hall Ticket Office. There
will be a nominal fee.
Robert Henderson, assistant coordinator of student activities,
commented; "People have been complaining about being stuck on
campus without a car. This new program enables resident students
without a ear to have someplace to go and a way of getting there."
The continuation of this program depends upon response from

students.

meeting starts with the pledge of allegiance and with a very long prayer. (Yes.)
Voting against relocatable or portable
classrooms were: Councilman Wm. A

Councilman Wm. Lyman and Councilman
John T. Elfvin (Republicans): Gerald Whalen. Council President Chester Gorski,
Raymond Lewandowski, Gus Franczyk, An

Voting in support of the portables were:
number

Councilman-at-Large Dclmar Mitchell and
Stanley Marowski, Horace Johnson and
Charles Black.
The arguments of the opposition revolved around the alleged poor construction of the portables (Councilman Buyers
called them ‘‘kiddie coffins”); the fact
that they are not manufactured by a local concern; budget considerations (Develop what we have first! What about the
Ellicolt Project?); "theft" of playground
space; and, the strongest, legally based
argument: The fact that portables are a
violation of existing building codes.
Those in favor of the

good use of Corporation Counsel Man
guso’s statement that the building code is
“discriminatory in purpose, nature, and
object.” As Dr. Manch said later on in the
day and as Horace Johnson, a Negro, said
during the session: "The real issue here is
integration, not portable classrooms."
Councilman-at-Large Delmar Mitchell
said this just before the vote was taken:

“For the past several years the Council
has challenged the Board of Education.
There is only one way to go now and that
is to the courts." After the hands were
counted, the odds were 11-4 in favor of
that one way to go.

Not

a rarity

Portable classrooms are not an odd phe-

nomenon. In a recent poll of 45 major
school districts all over the United Slates,
the typical district has used relocatable
units for the past ten years. These were
either purchased outright or constructed
by the district. Most were used for selfcontained classroom units although a great

arrangement ranged from 270 to 100,000
pupils, or a median of 4.9% of the total
enrollment. Each unit averaged a tiny 29
pupils per unit. Of the cities polled the
largest number of units in evidence was

fell

There is a complicating factor, however. Less than 10% of the units recorded
in all of the different cities were used for
the direct purpose of integration. Most of
the portable units were used to relieve
overcrowded conditions and, in the case
of Willis of Chicago, were actually used to
promote segregation. Cities which ostensibly use portable units to relieve overcrowding do not meet the subtly racist
opposition evident in cities like Buffalo,
where integration is so obviously the
question—and the objection.
This is undeniable. The Buffalo units
were to handle only 540 core area students as a temporary measure to promote
“quality integration” until 12 new middle
schools arc built by 1973. The units were
safe and they equalled or exceeded Buffalo’s usual building code requirements.
They have been described as “spacious,
well-lighted, well-equipped and self-contained."

The site work was to be done by local
people and the entire tab was to be picked
up by the state. Aside from a phony building code requirement, the opposition' to
the measure really had no argument, except one emotionally based—racial pre-

legally backed the portables). William
Buyers claimed: “It is not a question of integration because all of the schools in my
districts are integrated."
In a beautifully unknowing sumupance
of this subtle racialistic view Couneilmanat Large Ed Regan posed these two incredible questions: “Why racial balance
in our schools? What has it ever done?”
A fitting final note to the whole proceeding was the city clerk who was taking the
notes, but who had nothing to do with the
legislation, as he counted the eleventh

system.

The members in opposition arc not entirely without reprieve, however. For one,
I will admit that they made good points
about the city budget and how it should
concentrate on existing facilities and all.
We are all sensitive in the money belt.
And to extend this economic point of
view, in the words of opposition leader
Buyers: “I would not be against the relocatablcs if they were built locally and
with good materials."

'Rose-colored glasses syndrome'

Also, according to the Keener Commission Report on Civil Disorders, the opposition in this case would be advocating a
perfectly viable means of integration: the
"Enrichment Choice," whereby conditions
are improved within the ghetto areas. The

qualifying factor in these positive qualities
of—excuses for—the opposition is that
they avoid “with all possible speed." The
Kernel- Report also states that this nation
is rapidly becoming a divided one—black

inner-cities and white suburbs.
The clerk whom I mentioned above is
a simple middle-class fellow—we all have
one or two next door—and thinking about
him leads me quite neatly into a consideration of the racial complexities of the
normal middle class person. To what ex-

tent

is he racially prejudiced?

The House of Commons has recently defined racial discrimination as any case in
which a person treats another "less favorably than he treats or would treat other

persons," This preferential treatment is
more than ever in America—and right
here in Buffalo—evident along color
lines. Horace Johnson made this immediate in the Council meeting by saying:
"Black vs. White is the issue today and is
the issue here." He expressed the view
that “hope lies not in the next election.

generation," suggesting

the ground-in quality of this ruling generation’s racial prejudice.
The Kerner Commission Report refers
to "the persistence of discrimination" and
Dick Gregory is famous for calling the
United States the “number one racist
country in the world." And the mere fact
that the “people against racism" movement is based upon the “re-education of
adult whites" is significant. In a recent
teach-in at Norton Hall Mr. William Mayrl.
a graduate student in sociology, defined
the racial problem in America as one ...
of a more subtle dimenson," a social phenomenon. Racism is inherent in our social
“

This racial problem is aggravated in
the middle-class sphere by the artificial
and falsely gay attitude of the suburbs.
Dr, Peter Govacchini, professor of psychiatry at the University of Illinois, calls
this phenomenon the “rose-colored glasses
syndrome. This sweet euphoria is a neurotic symptom, used as a defense mechanism against their basic anxieties and
misgivings over what is happening in society and the world." This syndrome, this
neurotic comfort of the suburbs is exactly the kind of attitude which promotes
racism in the core areas, if for no other
reason than fault by omission.
The most recent reports from HUD on
the effect of the open housing provisions
of the 1968 Civil Rights Act on this situation in the suburbs seem to indicate that
it will continue. Not many Negroes will
be moving into these areas and what Negroes do move in will probably be middle-class, thus just reinforcing the “rosecolored glasses syndrome."
This next generation, the children of

these syndromed suburban parents, are
“rejecting the forced cheerfulness of
their parents because they can detect the
emptiness behind it." The parents, in a

tion.
The anti-racist tendencies of the next
generation, except for the more militant
of the Negro groups which display a kind
of reverse racism, are expressed by the
young white community through groups
such as CAUSE (the white counterpart of
BUILD) and “whites against racism,” as

mentioned earlier. More often, however,
these sentiments are expressed directly
through the University community. Note
President Meyerson’s recent selection of
a committee of University students, faculty and administrators (the Committee
on Equal Opportunity) to “enhance and
expand educational, economic and environmental opportunity for minority and
disadvantaged groups” in »he Buffalo area.
After months of traveling around the
United States a few years ago, Negro
author John A. Williams had this to say
about a situation which today, just three
years later, is much more critical:

If this rejection of their parents’ values

Ed Perry, a 205-pound left-handed sophomore, will be the team’s third quarterback if Murtha does play. Perry showed
fine potential with the frosh in ’67 and
impressed Urich with a good spring practice. A hard runner who is tough to bring
down and an accurate passer. Perry will
be groomed for the future.
Doc Urich sums up the offense this

in ability and attitude. Our offensive unit,

Waiting in the wings is veteran quarterhack Denny Mason, the Daryl Lamonica
of the Buffalo Bulls. For several years
Mason has been battling Murtha for the
signal-caller's job. There are those who
feel that Urich has gone too long with
Murtha. Mason does have the credentials
for the job. At times in relief roles, he
has looked like a world beater. Denny
has the confidence as well as the running
and throwing ability of a good quarterback. Only a lack of consistency has kept
Denny from being number one. But based
on his fine spring showing, and his headsup attitude, Urich would have no qualms
about starting Mason in the fall.

New director of sports
information looks ahead
The career, past and present, of new
State University of Buffalo Director of
Sports Information Richard E. Baldwin
echoes the recent strides made by the University and the even greater steps envis
ioned for the next decade.
Baldwin graduated from St. Lawrence
University in 1954, a year in which the
Buffalo football team managed only two
wins against small-time gridiron schools
like Alfred. Brockport, Brandeis, RPI and
Baldwin's own school, St. Lawrence.

1958. when Baldwin received his
Master's Degree in television from Syracuse University, the State University of
Buffalo had risen td become the best minor football college in the East, beating
such teams as Harvard and Columbia en
route to the Lambert Cup.

By

In 1980, when Baldwin became assistant
director of public relations at St. Lawrence. Buffalo played its first season as a
major grid power, posting a 4 6 record
against the likes of Army, VMI, and Bos-

ton

University.

Six years later, as Richard "Doc " Urich
introduced the "new era " to Rotary Field
football fans. Baldwin moved to a sports
information spot at Dartmouth College,
where he stayed for two years.

Baldwin assumed duties here at Clark
Gymansium June 17, 1968. Eighteen days
later the State University unveiled a vast
athletic complex as part of the new Amherst campus, including a 20.000 seat stadium. hockey rink, fieldhouse and rowing

facilities.

dents. He links the students with three
other vital ingredients for major college
status:

New York State—“The state now
seems to support athletics, but the stu
dents must show enthusiasm for the state
to continue its aid.”
•

Alumni—“The alumni have an on
thusiastic but small nucleus. The seed to
alumni backing will be vigorous student
support."
•

•

Other

major colleges—“We

will

have the facilities to host big time schools.
The students must prove that they want

major college status."

The days of Syracuse-Buffalo football
games, Little Five Western New York bas
ketball, and a nationally famous hockey
team are all “definite possibilities” pro

Q. Have there been any new decisions regarding board contracts
being used in the several cafeterias on the campus?
A. Due to the already over-taxed facilities of Norton Hall at the
noon hour, it has been decided that, at the present time, board contracts will be honored only in the dormitories. When conditions
change, i.e., when the new campus is built, the Food Service division
will be glad to reconsider this accommodation. At the present time,
students holding board contracts can eat on the interim campus, if
their classes so dictate. Arrangement for such, however, must be
made in advance through the Food Service Office.
Q. Do course credits transfer full value from one State University
unit to another?
A. Yes. Our Office of Admissions and Records informs us that
each course, as such, is given full credit in any other unit of the
State University. However, a problem arises when the requirements
for certain major fields vary from school to school within the unit,
and consequently specific course credits may need to be used as
electives where formerly they filled a prerequisite requirement.
Q. When is the first tuition payment due for the fall '68-'69

visor who signed Rick. “Wells has some

power, and he’d be a good running catcher. If Wells has to try it as an outfielder,
he’s got just a chance. If Rick can make
himself a catcher, he’s got a chance to be
in the majors a long time and make a lot

of money.”
A third member of the Buffalo baseball
team who was selected in the baseball
draft, pitcher-outfielder Ken Rutkowski,
turned down a contract with the San Francisco Giants, Rutkowski will return to the
University in the fall and play tailback for
Doc Urich’s gridders.

Chem club to hold meeting
A series of 20-minute talks by graduate
students from area universities will give
students experience in presenting their
material on a formal basis. The morning
session of the meeting will consist of lectures on physical and inorganic chemistry.
The afternoon session, beginning at 1:30
p.m., will deal with organic chemistry. All
students and faculty are invited.

A “Meeting in Miniature” will be held
by the Graduate Chemists Club tomorrow, beginning at 10 a.m. in room 70,
Acheson Hall,

The meeting will be patterned after
American Chemical Society meetings and
will be the first of its kind to be held by
the club.

Statistics

Sept. 16.
Q. Is any part of ROTC Department operating expenses paid by
the University, i.e., salaries, office equipment, telephones, services?
A. In checking this, we found that the major operating expenses
of the Department of Aero-Space Studies are borne by the Military.
The total University budget amount for the department for the
calendar year 1967-68 was $12,227 which covered salary items for
the stenographer and typist, office supplies, and equipment. During
the same calendar year students earned 1206 academic credit hours,
for which the University did not pay for instructional services, inasmuch as the department’s instructional staff are paid wholly by the
Military, which amounted to approximately $115,000.
Q. Why can't the summer jobs, under the Equal Opportunity
Program, be given to State University of Buffalo students rather than
the high school students selected?
A. This program had been commissioned to reach students from
disadvantaged minorities who have not been reached previously
through other means. It is presumed that a student in attendance
at the University has had some of the advantages and opportunities
of the College Work Study Program and the resources of the Office
of Financial Add, i.e., loans, scholarships, and Economic Opportunity
Grant money. Therefore, the high school student is the logical candidate. Any matriculated student interested in additional work opportunities should contact Mr. E. Martell in the University Placement
and Career Guidance Office.

SLUtlOlll aeiiviai poWqr is rocking Japanese campuses.
Fifty-four of Japan’s 846 colleges are in the midst of
student disturbances.
Medical students at the University of Tokyo have been
on strike since January: at another large university, three
of 11 departments are closed; at still another, ten students
were seriously injured at barricades they manned.

The Japanese Ministry of Education pins the causes
of student unrest upon “bigness, dehumanization and massproduced education.”
Since World War II, higher education in Japan has
grown gigantically. Rut rapid growth has brought poor
quality education.
Private Japanese universities are heavily in debt
The Ministry concedes that students have legitimate
grievances. Most of them sound like a Buffalo student had
thought them up:
They live in shabby housing;
They sit in large lectures listening to professors read
30-year-old notes;
There is little faculty-student and administrator

To the Editor:

Fighting valiantly for four years, I have over
come enormous problems at this “great University”
to finally graduate magna cum problems. I have
passed most of the flunk-out barriers such as three
exams in one day, teachers handing grades in late,
proctors forgetting to come to exams, strange bills
from the Bursar and the library, lack of courses
necessary for graduation, missing textbooks in the
Bookstore, forgotten necessary junior evaluation,
disappearing advisors .and stolen ID card.

But ho, I have not been detered in my battle
for culture and knowledge! While the old menace
of the Bursar and Admissions and Records have
disanneared in the sunset, a deadly new one has
taken their place: THE TRANSCRIPT DEPARTMENT. There must be a secret conspiracy to block
me from graduate school, since they could not slop
my graduation. Most of my transcripts seem to be
misplaced or lost between the State University of
Buffalo and the graduate schools. When one calls
to get information, the typical answer is: “This
office is just so busy and the lists are not alphabet-,
ized and it would take me all year to find your
name and we probably sent them out and if not we
will get at them right away. Please call back in a
week.”
Meanwhile most graduate schools are chopping
my name off of their lists because the essential
parts of my applications are missing. I wish the
transcript department would write a nice note to
my draft board to tell them why I have not heard
from my graduate schools.
For the most part, I have enjoyed my tour
undergraduate years at this University. I regret
that this big University must make each individual
feel extremely small. There is no excuse for extreme bureaucratic bungling on all levels of campus life. The red tape one must go through at this
school is choking. I pity the incoming freshmen,
they have so much to go through.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Development plan for
new campus revealed
by Marge Anderson
Campus

Editor

A contoured pond is one of the highlights of the site development plan for
the Amherst campus of the State University of Buffalo, approved Friday by the
Executive Committee of the State Board

of Trustees.
Dr. Samuel Gould, chancellor of the
State University, announced the approval.
Stressing that the announcement concerned the site development plan and
not the master plan, Dr. Gould disclosed
that it includes three parts: residences,
a health sciences complex and academic
facilities.

Site preparation for the first six residential colleges will begin in the fall,
with actual construction commencing in
the spring.
“We are now at the point where details of plans will be settled and con-

struction will proceed. The University’s
record of construction is the finest in the
country, noted for quality, efficiency and
dispatch,” said Dr. Gould. Referring to
the new campus construction, he commented: “We are preceding with such
speed as to make it a reality as soon as
possible.”

'Innovative departures'
The plan for the Amherst campus, according to Dr. Gould, is “going to be not
only a magnificent campus, but it will
translate the needs of the academic community better than any plan seen so far.”
He added that the campus will include
many “innovative departures that show
different attitudes.”
In terms of size, the plan calls for a
total of 14,600,000 square feet, approximately seven times the size of the Main
St. campus. Parking space alone at the
new site will be more than the total area
of the present campus.
Dr. Gould predicted that most of the
major construction will be completed
by
Among the specifics that were outlined
by Dr. Gould are plans for a
pond that
will provide both needed fill and a
recreational area.
A cushion against
flooding by Ell.cot Creek
will be created
by the building of the pond.
Overlooking
the jond will be “a modest sized
central

Union.” Most of the student union type
facilities are decentralized to the
Faculties and the Colleges.
One of the focal points of the campus
will be the high-rise library.
Tentatively
planned for
II stories, the building will
also house the presidential
offices of the
University and the facilities of the Councils for Higher Education Studies,
Inter-

national Studies and Urban and Regional
Studies.

Raised mall

Pedestrian passageways, including a
raised mall 18 to 20 feet above ground,
will connect most of the buildings. Dr.
Robert Ketter, vice president for facilities
planning, explained that there will also
be a rapid transit system.
Dr. Ketter also disclosed that plans are
now being made for a transportation system to link the Amherst campus with
the present Main St. site. The report of
the Joint Impact Study of the Buffalo
Amherst University Corridor should be
out in September, he said.
Parking facilities on the campus include structured parking at each end of
the campus, under the Faculties, in addition to surface parking on the periphery
of the site. Mass transportation will connect this surface parking with the main

buildings.
The core of the campus will consist of
four sub-campuses: the Faculty of Health
Sciences; the Faculties of Social Sciences
and Administration, of Educational Studies and of Law and Jurisprudence; the
Faculties of Natural Sciences and Mathematics and of Engineering and Applied
Sciences, and the Faculty of Arts and

Letters.

Two gateways
This core area will have two major
gateways. A concrete canopy more than
1000 feet long will serve the functions re-

lated to Arts and Letters and the other
nearby faculties. Under this canopy provision will be made for theaters, exhibit
spaces for the arts and sciences and meet-

ing areas.
Balancing this canopy will be a gateway on the opposite side of the campus,
which will serve as an entry for the Faculty of Health Sciences and related hospital and other facilities.

In addition to the central library, each
of the four sub-campuses for the faculties will have a major library with separate wings for each faculty. These libraries will be connected to the central
library, including a reference and reading collection, by several means, one of
which is a library area under the concrete
platform in the campus core.
Dr. Ketter said that the central buildings of the campus will “go into design
in the late summer. The development
plans for the units will start this fall.”
The chairman of the Executive Committee of the State Board of Trustees
termed the action taken Friday “a major
decision made to go ahead full steam.
A new adventure in education is taking

place.”

No Spectrum next week
The Spectrum

will not be published next Friday due to examinations to be held marking the end of the first
summer session.
We would like to wish our readers who will be leaving
the campus next week a happy vacation for the
remainder of the summer.
The next regular issue of The Spectrum will be published
day, July

19.

Social science, according to Dr, Amitai
Etzioni, should concern itself with analyzing societies and formulating policies by
which societies may direct themselves.
Dr. Etzioni, professor of sociology at
Columbia University, made this point in a
talk here! Friday.
He graduated from Hebrew University
in Jerusalem and received his PhD from
the University of California at Berkeley.
Currently a member of Columbia’s Institute on War and Peace Studies, he has
written extensively on a variety of topics.
Dr. Etzioni’s latest book, “The Active
Society: Theory of Societal and Political
Processes,” is regarded as a highly significant work in the field of social analysis.
In his lecture Dr. Btzioni called on social scientists to make the needs of society’s members the base of their work.
He termed societies as alienating to the
degree that they impose on their members
structures which are not responsive to
the members’ needs. In this sense he saw
most societies as not active.
It is possible, he suggested, to fix the
time when a problem comes to a society’s
attention. “If you come back ten, 20 or
30 years later, it will not be solved.”
Dr. Btzioni gave America’s pluralistic
past as a partial explanation of this country’s inability to move rapidly, but claimed
that even mere homogeneous societies cannot handle their own problems. He gave
the example of th Soviet Union which adopted the goal of a classless society in
1917. “Today, they have moved so far
away from that goal, they don’t remember
they even had it.”

Israel an active society
He classified Israel as one of the

most
active societies. That nation, according to
Dr. Etzioni, has shown an ability to mobilize its membership and give them a
meaningful goal. However, he added, Israel still has not been able to overcome
the problem of absorbing its immigrants.
Dr. Btzioni sees modern society in a
condition Where man does not understand
and cannot control forces shaping his life.
Modem society, he said, has released

forces which could not be mastered until

recently.
He compared the social environment to

“an oceanliner propelled by an outboard
motor,” which is guided mainly by the
currents, with the motor huffing and puffing

in back.

The last few years have seen a technological breakthrough, which Dr. Etzioni
believes gives society the option of regaining primacy. Acknowledging the developments in communications, he asked: “Can
the values and needs of the membership
now give society guidance?”

Social indicators developing
He believes social indicators are being
developed which will give a picture of
what is going on. Dr. Etzioni mentioned
that previously social scientists were “engaging in all sorts of surgery without
maps.” He now feels they have the means
to develop decent social theory.
Dr. Etzioni marked the period since
1945 as one in which this country developed the technology for an active society.
He said the big question is whether or
not this technology will be used.
This “active society” has two characteristics, claimed Dr. Etzioni. One is social
guidance and control from the government. Second is development of genuine
concensus building from the membership
upward.
He defined societies having too heavy
a control structure as “overmanaged,” to
the extent that their governments are unable to acquaint themselves with the de-

sires and abilities of their members.
At the other extreme Dr. Etzioni placed
the “drifting systems with too little control.” Government action here, he said, is
too little and too late to benefit its members.

Totalitarionism and anarchy
He sees the active society as striking

a

balance between overmanaged totalitarianism and anarchic drifting systems. The
power base of the active society will be a
pluralistic one with equality of power, he
claimed. He further called for genuine
participation by the membership in their
society’s affairs.
Dr. Etzioni fixed the function of the
policy sciences at providing guidance for
the formation of an “active society.” He
concluded with the optimistic prediction
that many of those in his audience might
enter this field.

Theater review

‘Evening of Dance’

‘Heartbreak House*
by Richard Parlmutter
Theater

Spectrum

by Corydon

Reviewer

George Bernard Shaw was profoundly
upset by World War I, but he was tortured even more by the general condilioir
of Europe, its attitudes and futilities,
which combined to form the frustrating
continent known as “Heartbreak House.”
Shaw transmits his abhorrence of Europe’s

rich in his usual manner, through satire
which is at times bitter and strong, at
times subtle yet piercing.
He creates ten characters whom we
candidly observe on the eve of World War
I. The message of the play is conveyed by
studying them as a group, but the humor and dramatic content is related
through the individuals of Heartbreak
House.

is largely due to director Val Gielgud who
has helped the players depart from complete stage theatricality to achieve a surprising degree of likeness to life.

His job is difficult because the play is
long, but Mr. Gielgud allowed it to drag
only momentarily in the later acts. The
continous shifting of the action from couple to couple is achieved smoothly.

Second session

Shaw’s production notes are explicit on
set design, and Maurice Strike has done
an excellent job of creating the ship-like
room which Shaw described.

Students who wish to attend the second
six-week session of Millard Fillmore College (the evening division of the University) may register for classes Thursday
between 6;30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. in Diefendorf Hall. Additional information about

most impressive, but it is the fortunate

combination of directors, actors, costume
and set designers, each performing his
task with a high degree of excellence,
which is responsible for this undoubtedly
successful production of “Heartbreak
House.”
The play is of a quality not often available to Buffalo audiences, but you have
until July 28 to prove this to yourselves
by visiting the quaint Niagara-on-the-Lake
Court House Theater.

Friday, July S, 1968

ing from a conflict between a soldier and
a priest, played in excellent complementary form by Bird Singlepary and Jim Austin respectively, over the favors of a nurse,
a part drawn to life by Billie Kirpich. this
verse was the darkest of them all. Although the priest and the soldier “fight”
on stage, there is little suggestion that one

is different from the other except for
choice of uniform.
This same train of thought is again expressed in a movement which converts
gay, uniformed girl scout figures, maypoling, into ominously gay bride figures, presided over by both the priest and the soldier. Even the anticipation of marriage
(and sex) has its grey undertone of the
expected, the marching, the military inevitability of it all.
In the next, and last, movement of verse
three, these shreds of anticipation are
pinioned, imagistically, to despair. The
nurse is raped (seduced?) by the priest
and a final dimming glance stageward
shows the priest bending darkly over the
nurse. And even he looks bored. Dumb,
predestined, dreary duty is the message
here, with all of its religio-military patterns.

'Sinforietta'
Verse four was the premier performance (as choreographed by guest Ray Cook
of the Ballet Center of Buffalo) of Sir
Mailcomb Arnold’s “Sinforietta.” Mr. Cook
entitled it “Island of Dreams” and attempted, with good success, to illustrate

the word ‘love’: he did this in three parts,
love of a Bird for a Plant, of a Man for a
Woman, and of Everybody for Anything,
(in that order).
The transition of animal and plant love
to human love to humanistic love is very
neat, even though it does stretch the term
“love” a bit out of (into?) shape. Since the
action takes place on an island, where one
thing ultimately affects all others, and
since the same dancers are used in each
movement, giving the whole a continuity,
and since love only propagates the same,
the dance sequence has logic and signifi-

cance.

grew
The signs of hesitation in love
dimmer with each movement, disappearing, except for comic relief in the last, Joe
Clark must be singled out for excellence
here. His lifts were strong, his technique
in general was bold and polished, and his
interpretation properly dramatic.

of dramatic action, from the calm inaction
of the opening exercise-verse to the violent despair of the third part and finally
to the hopeful gaiety of the last verse’s
last movement. The essence of this four
part dance-poem was that love can be
found anywhere, if only for a moment.
“Sequence for Six” was the first, and
least consequential, verse of the program.
More than anything it was a warm-up,
both for the audience and for the dancers,
although its light tone was a foreshadowing of the undercurrent of the hope and
love expressed, in variation, by the whole.
The accompanying music, composed by
David Rosenbloom, was electronic. But
even given this unpredictable background
—cuts of pop music, street sounds and so
on_,the movements of the six dancers
were balanced and coordinated as they
assumed the attitudes of exercise. This
was a new number, as was the last and
developed especially for “Evening.”
From O'Caiey poem
Technically, “The Star Jazzer,” the second “verse," was the most impressive in
the program, integrating successfully three
different media: film, music and dance.
Inspired by a Sean O’Casey poem from
The Green Crow, this sequence told the
story of a dreary tenement existence which
was relieved only by the dream of a long
ago past: “Now a woman, and once a
kid
The dreary, despairing mood was set by
an Alan Grabelsky film which showed a
series of bored, weary drudges climbing
up and down a forever set of frowsy
stairs. Brilliantly unnoticed, five women
sifted onto the stage, dancing with crushed,
limp movements to underline the mood of
the film. Superbly in control of her body
as an instrument of expression, Billie Kirpich, the main figure in the dance of despair , drained every possible nuance of
meaning from the score by Julius East-

Another Lymanbung
University District Councilman William F. Lyman suggests legislation requiring landlords to notify Buffalo police
when they rent apartments or flats to college students.
He says a recent incident involving a student tenant
who left an upstairs flat dirty, with psychedelic paint and
obscenities on the walls prompts this idea. He claims he has
received many complaints about student tenants in the past.
Councilman Lyman has a penchant for introducing wild
and constitutionally questionable legislation whenever he
lets his imagination and prejudices get the best of him.
Here is a man whose major qualification for being on
the council of a large city is that he owns a liquor store.

The alumni-oriented drive, extended far past its scheduled deadline, has been a colossal flop for the athletic department.
Looks like alumni are about as eager to pay for the

UB is for visitors
To the Editor:

In the name of academic freedom, freedom of
speech and liberty to beef, I humbly request equal
time and equal picas to tell Sue Schwartz a
question even as she told us the question, “UB:
for students or visitors?” in the June 21 issue of
The Spectrum.

According to simmering Sue, a person who
studies several summer months here is a student
while one who studies here only five days is a
visitor. By some twist of female logic, a full summer visitor has more rights than a five-day
visitor. So Sue supposes. She overlooks the fact
that the five-day student pays as much or more
as Sue does for each hour of instruction. Sue obviously isn’t aware that the University obtains the
free services of over a hundred creative experts to
teach anyone—including Sue—who pays the nominal fee—how to behave more creatively.
“Why must men live in Goodyear?” asks Sue.
Because dorms rented in the summer help pay
for those facilities and thus help reduce the winter
rates. Why can’t she attend lectures that interest
her? Who told her she couldn’t? Did she try?

Sue, are you so selfish that you do not want
the University to exist for all the students? Was
your real beef that those you scornfully reject as
“visitors” were mostly “adults?” Was the shock
of adults having a wonderful time while working
hard too much for you? Were you yak! yak!
yaking! on the erroneous assumption the enjoyable creative achievement is reserved for the
young? Have you erroneously assumed that education terminates with graduation? Have you too
all too soon become an uncreative, stifled adult?

in Vietnam.
There is a chance that one day the talks may
get down to the real nitty-gritty, the weighty matter of war. But it seems more likely that before
that can happen there must be a gradual escalation
of the Paris confrontation, and someday we maysee the following on living color TV:
“Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, this is
Walter Concrete in New York . .
. .
And this is Charles Colldngtree in Paris
. . Bringing you a Special Report, live and
direct from Paris. Take it Chuck.”
“Thank you Walter. There seems to be a new
mood in Paris today, as the 827th meetings of
American and North Vietnamese negotiators gets
under way. Over the past eight years, the negotiators seemed to be moving toward a kind of fondness toward each other; the Vietnamese accepting
American brashness and the Americans coming to
accept the Viet’s unrelenting attitudes,
“But that progress was bound to be reversed,
and the first sign of that reversal came yesterday,
on the eve of America’s 200th birthday, when the
North Vietnamese suddenly, and without explanation, infiltrated the conference with a new hardliner. The U.S. is expected to retaliate today with
a new soft-peddler and there’s not telling what
may happen. Let’s switch you directly to the
scene where Averall Harriman is just beginning.”
“Hello Loc, how’s Ho Chi been?”
“Fine, honest Ave, how’s yourself?”
“Oh, just fit to MU.”

“Don’t

enough, eh Gringo?”

“What’s the matter, smarty-Loc, can’t you take
it?”
“Look Avis, just because you’re only number
two, don’t take it out on the while delegation.”
“Let’s get down to the weighty matter of war
and peace, okay? Now look, Loc, we’ve made just
about enough concessions. We’ve stopped the
bombing, pulled our troops back to Nevada, agreed
to the formation of a coalition government .
and all so you could save face. How far can friendship go?”
“Does the American negotiator, after all these
years of friendship, of Wednesday morning meetings, through rain and hail and glorious revolutions and DeGaulle be-headings, doubt my sincerity? And after I called you ‘Honest Avc’ on Radio
Hanoi, too. Tsk!”
“Look Loc, you know I think of you just like
a son, but can’t you see you’re being spoiled?
I can’t just give you everything you ask for.
There’s an end to the road in this soft-peddling,
you know.”
“Aw, nuts!”
“Take it easy, son!"

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

“The more violent the revolution, the

This viewpoint is held by Dr. Mulford
Q. Sibley, visiting professor of political
science from the University of Minnesota.
In an interview, Dr. Sibley argued that
violence inhibits rather than furthers revolution.
He holds that effective application of

He argued that genuine change can only
be effected by non-violence: A government requires cooperation from its people
and cannot exist without it. The way to
get rid of an existing system is to withdraw from it.

Imaginative non-violence

Turning to history for support, Dr. Sibley cited the success , of the Roman plebians in achieving their rights by threatening to leave the city. He also noted that
Norway paralyzed the Nazi government

Eastern Europe are viewed by Dr. Sibley
as part of a process of fundamental change

white racism issue

Self-perpetuatur

White racism was the subject of a
teach-in in Norton Hall last week.

Dr, Mulford Q. Sibley, in the department of Political Science at U. of Minne-

Association, the program featured a panel
representing all phases of the educational
experience. One dean, three professors
and a graduate student participated.
Mr. William Mayrl, a graduate student
in sociology, defined the racial problem
in America as one “not of the personal
prejudices of the Wallaces and Slominskis, but of racism in its second, more
subtle dimension,” a social phenomenon.
He explained that racism was inherent in
our social system.
A high infant mortality rate and chronic
long-term unemployment are self-perpetuating in a competitive system, such as
semi-laissez faire capitalism, he con-

leads to inaction.” After “we have beat
our breasts in sympathetic anguish for our
suffering colored brothers, we must take
definite action,” he continued. Dr. Sibley
closed by cautioning that once the present
crisis between black and white is solved
by miscegenation, we must beware of the
use of racist thought by the State Department against the yellow race to further
their own political ends.

tended.

'Indifference, inaction'
Mr. Mayrl was followed by Dr. Lewis
Perry, a professor of history who cited

the well known “villains” of the Kerner
Commission Report, ‘indifference’ and ‘inaction.’ Dr. Perry suggested courses in
Black History and Culture be taught to
white students to help eliminate racial
prejudice, and that deflacto social racism
was of overriding importance.
Dr. Fred Snell, dean of the Graduate
School, was next at the podium. He illustrated his talk with an account of his
early life in China.

Algier's Motel beatings

Dr. Edgar Friedenberg, professor of
sociology and education at State University at Buffalo, the final speaker, gave a
resume of John Kersey’s new book about
the Algier’s Motel incident in which three
Negro men were apparently beaten to
death by Chicago policemen. He quoted
one of Kersey’s interviewees as saying:
“I think police are just prejudiced
against people.”
During the discussion period following,
Bill Simons, a graduate student ip history, said that he thought the panel
had “missed the point.” He decried the
chauvinism of the United States and denounced the inherent evils of the capitalist system.
Several other students also attempted
to communicate this basic question of
“what can be done.”

satisfied elements.

He believes that in this country nonviolence must be used imaginatively for
achieving racial equality, He called for
new adaptions of non-violence which tailor the means to the situation. Bloc-voting,
economic sanctions, civil disobedience and
cooperation within the Negro community
were cited as alternatives to violence.

Planning

Mulford Q. Sibley
cult of ineffective violence
violence requires strong leaders, willing
followers and a possession of a degree of

technology. Such factors will only create
a “basic regime of inequality" by the time
the process is completed, he said.

Dr. Sibley pointed out that turning to
violence puts a high premium on those
individuals who use it best. This creates
a tendency toward dictatorship, rather
than a restructuring of society. He cited
the Russian and French revolutions as instances in which the use of great violence
distorted the revolutions’ objectives.

The first of 13 three-day summer planning conferences to
be held
for incoming freshmen will end at noon. The conferences
designed
are
to give students a glimpse of University life, a
chance to plan their
courses for the fall semester, and, for those from
out of town, a first
look at the Buffalo community.
According to Miss Sheila Fancher, director of the
programs,
there will be two conferences held each week through Aug,
9. Miss
Fancher said that a highlight of the conferences
will be a lecture by
a faculty member active in research or in campus
or community
activities. This week's conference was addressed by
Mr. J. P. Jones
of the Political Science Department.
Another feature is a film that has been prepared by
University
College advisement office showing services on
campus available to
students. Miss Fancher said the 25-minute film
includes such areas as
the student health service, student counseling,
financial aid, the
placement office, admissions and records and the
bursar.

Dr. Sibley expressed fear that increased
community and
continued apathy in the white community
would make violence inevitable. These
two factors could be complicated by what
he termed “stupid and unimaginative
police forces.” The result is a spiral leading to racial warfare.

He explained that using violence as a
means gives the ruling class a moral excuse to suppress elements pressing for
change, and that inviting the ruling class
to violence is especially frustrating to revolutionary ends since that class often has
a near monopoly on “effective violence.”

Dr. Sibley also raised moral objections
to violent revolution, asking: “Can one enlarge respect for human life by killing?”
He said he cannot think
of any way that

Cult of violence
For this reason Dr. Sibley argued the
importance of both black and white America realizing the consequences of vio-

lence. He believes non-violence must be

directed at more than the complacent
white population. He said it is also important to “dramatize for Negroes that
there is another way.”
“Revolution has to begin in the mind,”
asserted Dr. Sibley. “The idea is to change
the people in the white community. You
don’t get them to change by shooting them.
You may by confronting them.”
Dr. Sibley acknowledged that there
seems to be a “cult of violence” in the
U.S., expressing concern that it is extending into segments of the student population. Many students have adopted a romantic attachment to revolution, he observed.
He feels that those advocating revolution
are not very familiar with history.
“People who appeal to violence have a naive
notion of how social changes occur,”

Department.

The main problem at present, Miss Cottone commented, is to obtain cooperation
from all departments in finding openings.

The problem of subsidation has been partially alleviated. Fifty jobs will be
funded
by the Summer Sessions Office, and
the
work training program of the
CAO will
fund another 50 jobs.

According to Miss Cottone, the program hopes to provide 125 jobs. Students
are being selected by guidance counselors
who will submit the names for jobs
which
will begin July 8.
Barbara Emilson, also of the program,
pointed out the relationship between the
purpose of the program and the
University. She commented: “It is the responsibility of the University to provide
opportunities for exposure to the University
environment and of the University to fulfill its commitment to the community
as

a whole.”

Introduction to SEEK

Besides providing jobs, it is hoped that
the program will do much
more for the
participating students. Youths will be introduced to SEEK and Upward Bound
programs. They will also be given
summer

privileges. Miss Cottone
hopes to be able
to provide other special programs
for the
participating students.

several
people will be acting as counselors to discuss and work out any problems that the
youths may encounter. At

for children” will be the
of a proposed new elementary

•school, which will probably open in the
fall of 1969, are now being formulated by
Dr. Arthur Efron of the State University
of Buffalo English Department.
Dr. Efron feels that public and most
private schools, both in the United States
and abroad, are too authoritarian. Adhered to is a relatively rigid pattern of
learning which inhibits free development
of the child.
“Schools ought to be based on freedom
for children,” Dr. Efron said. “They ought
to develop the natural freedom children
need, and display if you let them.”
In allowing children to follow their
own inclinations, Dr. Efron expects they
will leave the school with a broader
range of experience than they could obtain in most schools. The focus will be
on developing the whole child rather than
a few exclusive technical skills.
The school will include children from
ages five to 11. In lieu of the conventional and somewhat rigid grade system,
children will be allowed to advance at
their own speed, eliminating what Dr.
Efron considers inherent artificial comword underlying
the school’s philosophy. Since the school
will be authoritarian at neither studentteacher nor teacher-administration levels,
teachers will have to unlearn much of
their training. Discipline in the classroom will be avoided.
“Instead we shall appoint teachers
whose inclination and commitment are toward liking children enough, and being
unafraid enough, to want the children to
develop freely,” said Dr. Efron. He hopes
this philosophy will eventually influence
current teacher training.

Option of "play"
He continued:

“Children will be offered the option of
‘play’ rather than ‘Study’ if that is their
preference. We recognize that learning
is of many dimensions, in many media,
and that it takes place in a multitude of
situations. There is no inherent conflict
between formal Study and other kinds of
learning. We expect that in practice the
teachers and students in the school would
work out a suitable equilibrium.”

system
to fit back into the public school
at age 11. He feels that such a difference
in early training is likely to generate
the
some feelings of separation between elmschool and the rest of society. The

dren will be somewhat independent in a
society dedicated to conformity.
There is also the problem of the child

“own healthiness is the strongest safeguard” against these risks. Knowledge
will be made available to them. “Vou
have to invite them and they may turn
down the ■ invitation.” But if allowed to
follow their own inclinations, he believes,
their natural interest will accomplish
more than force-fed teaching.
The families of children enrolled in the
school will be an important factor. Obviously, the child who goes home each
evening to an authoritarian-oriented family will be faced with a dilemma. However, Dr. Efron doesn’t feel this will be a
serious problem. The philosophy of the
school will be made quite clear to interested parents, and he expects that only
thos families based strongly on freedom
would seriously think of enrolling their
children.

Private and non-profit

for a child whose parents are primarily
interested in the amount of conventional
learning he can absorb. Nor a place for
the parent who is worried lert his child
‘waste time’ by enjoying himself. Nor
for treatment of seriously disturbed children.”
The school will be private and nonprofit. It is expected that there will be
a tuition charge, but the founding group
is now investigating other sources of income, such as grants.
Approximately 25% of the students will
have tuition scholarships, providing a
variety of economic backgrounds. The
group wants to bring in children “who

Movie review

‘How I Won The War’

Quicksilver and 2*2-?
by Joseph Fernbacher

by Michael Calleri
Spectrum

Staff

Reporter

John Lennon’s groin is not decimated in

technicolor in Richard Lester’s film “How

I Won The War.” I mention this not out

Magazine has given a still shot of'Lennon
bleeding his vital guts out much attention,
as if this were the focal point or even basis

of the film.
“How I Won The War” is worth a lot
more than mere magazine sensationalism.
As a statement against the idiocy of war
the film succeeds, although its Lesterian
cinema techniques may baffle more than
a few viewers. Lester, you will recall, is
the man responsible for the Beatles’ “Hard
Day’s Night” and “Help,” as well as the
English smuttacular “The Knack” (good
smut though, luv).
Lester specializes in jump cuts, meteroric flashbacks, hyped camera speed and
sight gags; “How I Won The War” is chock
full of nuts in that bag.
Basically the film is about Goodbody’s group and their adventure in North
Africa during World War II. From this
framework, the film fragments into a variety of cinematic pieces.
There are jumps back and forth to some
excellent scenes betwen a captured Goodbody and a German prisoner of war officer
as well as periodic visits to the home of
one of the Goodbody platoon members
where we see his wife writing him letters
describing her new-found romantic interests (which in reality are only reports
of what she sees on the streets below her
apartment.)
Interspersed through all this are various
assaults on German camps, an attempt to
bring a bit of Britain to the blazing desert
via a controlled cricket match, worries
over how much gas remains with which to
run the vehicles and a series of war movie
cliches that would send John Wayne scurrying for cover.

Cliches and cockney

The cliches include the company coward
(who survives the war and is quite proud

of the boys who did the fighting); the

young soldier who gives his life with as
much apple-cheeked courage as possible
(while he begs for water), and a highlight
of the film, where an officer talks to his
fallen tanks, his cavalry, and shoots one of
the tanks to put it out of its misery.
This is pure Lester, the best Lester, and
it’s unfortunate that the entire film doesn’t
achieve this kind of classic peek into the
insanity and inanity of war.
The sight gags that miss are obvious
failures which tend to muddle the film’s
progress. Many times the spoken English
(some form of Cockney I imagine, since
Cockneys are in) is unintelligeable.
Some of the staging of the film is haphazard, as if Lester merely plopped his
camera somewhere and had his actors improvise some piece of business. It’s a Godardian touch, and perhaps only Godard can
pull it off.
Despite these lapses, and an occasional
flat joke in Charles Wood’s superb screenplay, the film never lags, is never dull.

Even bad Lester is interesting, but what
is more important is tjjat Lester does
triumph in his desire to juxtapose the real
and unreal qualities of war, as well as
doubly depicting the characters as not only

themselves, as soldiers, are artists creating
art in an artistic endeavor.
War; An art form
Lester wants us to know that he believes
war is as much an art form as the cinema,
and that the men who wage the wars are
as much artists as painters or writers or
even film directors.
In the movie, the characters are aware
of the fact that they are part of a film.
After one scene, the camera pulls back
to reveal a stage setting upon which the
sequence has taken place, and Goodbody
mentions during one of his conversations
with the German POW officer that he is
merely playing a role in a movie.
Lester also applies documentary and
semi-documentary techniques to much of
the film. Often the death of a soldier is
viewed in documentary style (black and
white grain with some form of color filter—green, blue, yellow or purple) and
the shot is duplicated by the death of the
same soldier in a technicolor frame. The
complex contrast between the war and the
film, and the various levels of understanding within, is carried off beautifully
by Lester’s precise handling of his art.

Vicious side of war
The film is not overly brutal. War never
was a friendly game of checkers, and Lester gives us the vicious side of the conflict, although not to the extent to which
we may have been led to believe. Lester
displays the killings honestly, and the key
deaths are shown twice (filtered and
straight).

Lennon’s death is veiled by an ultraviolet film, and is not as cruel or jingoistic
as Ramparts fathoms. In point of fact, Lester tries to give the death of the shorn
Beatle some humor. Lennon looks at the
camera/audience and states quite blankly:
“You knew this was going to happen,
didn’t you?” The audience chuckles nervously, which after all is what Lester
wanted it to do.
Lester has two representatives in the
film, in addition to his directorial post. He
is the Fool, and he is Goodbody.
The Fool is the film’s finest character.
Wearing the traditional plaid baggy pants,
he comments on the course the war and
the film are taking, and provides us with
some of the best visual humor. This is the
intellectual Lester.
The acting Lester is seen in the antics
of Michael Crawford who plays Goodbody.
Whatever' Crawford does, and he does it
excellently, is exactly what Lester would
do if he were in front rather than in back
of the camera. A film with the total Lester
—actor, writer, director—would certainly
be welcomed.
“How I Won The War” is currently at
the Circle Art. It’s a significant film, an
adventurous film.

One of the most exciting and original
groups to come out of the West Coast
is the group known as The Quicksilver

that successfully blends beautiful guitar
and drum work into a sound that is both
fresh and groovy.

to be in an echo chamber.

Still another few minutes pass by and
we hear the lyrics that have so far been
non-existent. The lyrics are weak and
are sometimes ignored completely as the
listener becomes caught in the music
being performed. Finally the cut ends up
in the sort of confusion that was made
famous in a number of Beatle songs. All
in all though, this excellent cut is a real
tribute to Gary Duncan and David Frieberg who are the group’s composers and
guitarists.

The lead cut on their first Ip, entitled
“The Quicksilver Messenger Service," is
a Hamilton Camp tune entitled “Pride
of Man,” The lyrics (which are meaningful to many) are at times overshadowed
by the intricate marriage of bass, lead
guitar and drum work. It is a tune with
a good solid rock background and lyrics
in the style of the most successful folk
artist.

In one of the many instrumentals on
this Ip, the one entitled “Gold and Silver”
stands out. We hear the vibration of
strings against guitar and drum against
skins. Ultimately this tune will prove to
be the quintessence of the Quicksilver
Messenger Service, and prove it is true

One of the greatest single records to
hit the market in the past few months
is the tune by a group known as the Bob
Seger System. The song is entitled
“2+2=?” and is among the most outspoken of records that express feelings of
this modern generation of “war-protesters.”

that many modern groups are still focus-

ing their attention on their music rather
than their lyrical contents.

A good example of just what the lyrical
content of this record is like is the line,
“I am young, but your rules they are old.”
Coupled with the others in this single,

The second side of this already great
Ip contains two songs, one more than four
minutes in length and another almost
12 minutes long.

The four minute cut is entitled “Too

how good the new sound is that combines
the hard driving rhythms of the ’50s with
the occasionally melodic and eerie sounds
of the modern “psychedelic” genre of

After concentrating at first on the
tune’s lyrics, this reviewer sat back and
got absolutely caught up in the music.
The guitar work is some of the most
inventive and enjoyable I have had the
pleasure to hear. And it shows just how
many of the new (and old) groups have
developed the style of pushing forward
their musical instruments and letting the
vocals fall behind.

Marriage of forms
The 12 minute cut is entitled “The
Fool” and has to be the grooviest sounding thing on the market today. Again we
have the successful marriage between
three musical forms—the psychedelic, the
hard hitting rock sound, and the blueeyed soul.
As the tune starts out we are given

‘Portrait of My People’

“Black is beautiful,” says Malcolm Erni,

triumph for African culture in his home
town.
The show, “Portrait of My People,” will
be on WBEN-TV each Saturday at 7
p.m., beginning August 3.
One can almost feel him reaching beyond the stage to the next step in his continuing campaign to restore the black
man’s pride in his heritage.
When Mr. Erni began encouraging acceptance of black culture, it was considered an insult to most Negroes to be called
“black” or “African.” The opposition to
his attempts at establishing a center for
African art, music and dance in the community caused him to be considered antiNegro.
He was forced to leave the church in
which he served as assistant pastor be-

cause of his controversial ideas and dance
lessons he was holding in the church base-

Forced to go it alone, Mr. Brni concentrated his efforts on ghetto youth at a
number of east side locations. In 1966 he
moved his quarters to 350 Masten Avenue,
the present location of his African Cultural Center.
He is convinced that black children are
the key to restoring pride to his race.

“We must have a Heritage Nursery for
so that they can begin
to learn the things omitted from the history texts in the public schools. Our children can no longer identify with Greek
mythology and must stop clinging to stone

our black children

One of many projects
The telecasts are but one of the

erature.
“I wish there were more places where
black culture was being taught. The need
is greater now because the youngtsers are
accepting Africa as theirs and want to
know the languages, the customs and the
religions. Even the white communities
want to better understand our past, and
us.”
Because of the efforts of Mr. Emi, who
will host the telecasts, black culture and
the ghetto will enter suburbia, and black
history will reach those in the core city.

It promises to be an enlightening experience for all who will be hearing this
ebony oracle for the first time.
But whether Malcolm Erni speaks of
Africa or America, Haiti or Harlem, he
always colors it black, and when he is
finished there will be no doubt in the
viewers’ minds that black can be truly a
beautiful thing.

Some war critics who plan to resist the
Selective Service System are still hoping
for a confrontation with the government
over the legality of the war and the draft.
The trial of the five men in Boston had
been viewed as the major chance for this
confrontation, but 85-year-old Francis J.
W. Ford, the presiding judge, ruled before the trial that the issue of the legality
of the war could not be discussed. The
defendants had contended they could not
be held legally responsible for opposing
an illegal war.

Out of 20,000 undergraduate, graduate
and night-school studenlts, only 6000 paid
their athletic fees. The Athletic Department which usually banks $280,000 from
these fees, received only $80,000. Take
$200,000 out of a $28,000 budget, and you
have a tremendous amount of pressure
exerted on the Athletic Department.

It added; “We will aid and support
these efforts, as we have done for more
than 85 projects already, and as we shall
continue to do until American troops are
withdrawn and the Vietnamese people
are allowed to determine their own
futures.”

But most observers agree that the convictions are not likely to have a serious
impact on the movement, at least in the
immediate future.

There is only one solution which will
insure a bright future for University athletics, and that is mandatory athletic

Buffalo’s riots a year ago
Or at least that’s the impression Buffalo Police Commissioner Frank N. Felicetta gave the House Committee on
Un-American Activities this past week.
He said that members of the Buffalo Youth Against War
and Fascism, whom he termed “a communist spinter group”
(and they are) distributed leaflets to ghetto residents that
incited them to riot.
He also blamed convicted drug dealer Martin Sostre for
having had his hand in convincing hundreds of supposedly
happy, contented black Buffalonians to rebel.

Come, come, Commissioner. Just whom do you expect to
believe that?

Felicetta compliments us all, if that were true
The fact is that happy people have no need to revolt.
A few students couldn’t convince an entire community to lash
out in violence.
We are all responsible for the riots. Scapegoats are egosatisfying, but this is too great a tragedy, too vast a problem
to pin on a few persons.

McCrary here. I don’t really believe that quote
I’ll eat those words if l ean get all
the high school principals, elected officials and
valedictorians who have made insulting pronouncements to do the same.
This is the week that commencements came to

their last.
Oh pity the graduating class of 1968 who have
been told variously that love and respect, honor and
courage, inspiration and perspiration, realism and
idealism, hope and the Pope, blood sweat and tears,
education and desegregation, brotherhood and
motherhood and chastity are the only real hope for
the world.
And pity the Class of ’68 who have been told
variously again
that the greatest problem the
country will face is: crime in the streets, pollution
in the air, riots in the ghettoes, Nixon in the White
House, rebellious students in administration buildings, a left takeover, a right takeover, a new fascist
radical middle-of-the-road slowdown, the balance of
payments deficit, societal violence and—-oh yeah—involvement in that jungle half a world away.
But what can you tell a graduate? J. L. has the
perfect answer, the perfect speech, and here it is:
‘Graduates: You came here to get your diplomas today . . . that’s real diplomacy (wait for
laughter to subside). Seriously, I’m going to give
you just one bit of advice—-Plastics! (Wait again

The University Food Service is up to its old tricks again.
It waited until summer sessions—when most students are
not available—and then surreptitiously raised prices. Some
prices were hiked as much as 20%! (Which wouldn’t be
too bad if the quality of food was reciprocally raised 20%.
Of course it was not. Quality wallows at the same grubby

changin’.

“As John Arbuckle, the famous tea merchant,
once said; ‘You get what you pay for.’ Peace on
earth can only come through good will toward men,
but it’s going to take a lot of blood sweat and tears
so be a doer if you hope to achieve prosperity.
“Remember to keep the faith, baby, whatever
happens in the air, on land, and see what you can
do for your country, not what your country can
do for thee, if you have the time.
“Rely on yourself and beware of evil. The
greatest things attainable by mortal men, after
all, are attainable only through the noble efforts
of people.
“As future leaders I put my stock in you.
Don’t make the same mistakes we did. Learn from
history because you shouldn’t repeat the mistakes
we’ve learned from.
“Whether you become a doctor, lawyer, teacher,
tinker or tailor, keep your cool. Love your neighbors, your brothers, your countrymen, whether they
be red, yellow, black or white and reject extremism.

“Dream of dreams that were never dreamt before, but steer clear of unthinkable thoughts.
“Your diplomas represent not an end, but a
new beginning. People like to scare graduates
by telling them what a rough world it is out there.
Why should I break tradition and tell you differently?

“Abraham Lincoln, in his famous Gettysburg
Address, said: ‘People will probably forget what I
say here, but they’ll never forget what happened
here.’
“In the same vein, forget what I say here. You
are commenced.”

Resident demands privacy
To the Editor:
The University has done it again.
The weekend of June 14, University Housing had
the nerve to house a group of Canadian students
from the University of Waterloo in Tower Hail, unknown to the RAs until after they arrived. The point
is not the students’ nationality, but the fact that
they were housed on the same floors as the residents.
Anyone who was within hearing distance of
Tower on Friday night could have heard the party
these students were having on the resident floors
until the campus police broke it up.
The noise wasn’t enough, but one individual was
injured when a bottle struck him from one of the
upper floors. He was hospitalized with cuts on the
head. This plus a number of minor disturbances
Saturday night and Sunday morning (at 2 a.m. campus police were called again) was disturbing to all
residents, including those in Goodyear.
The University should realize that the resident
the
floors in the dorms are for those enrolled at
University only. These are our legal homes for the
summer and this right should be respected.
We too like to sleep and have privacy, as do the
University officials. It is understood that the University has summer programs and noise can’t be helped,
but these visitors can be kept off the resident floors
and should be. We should not be sacrificed for the
sake of saving money or because a few bureaucratic
people think the students will take all this garbage
without protest.

Why not rooms for visitors?
To the Editor:
I am a resident student living in Tower for the
summer.
Recently four of my friends from Cornell University came to visit me. They are foreign exchange
students from Tunisia and are on very limited bud-

gets.
When an attempt was made to secure a room for
them in Tower, I was told by housing that, although
there are quite a few empty rooms on my floor,
these rooms would not be opened. The only way
they could stay there would .be on a cot in my room
or in an occupied room With an empty bed.
This system is inadequate because dorm rooms
have barely enough space for two people, let alone
moving in a third cot. It is also an infringement upon the rights of a person who had requested a single
room to share his room with another person, even
if it is only for a few nights.
r
I feel that a better system could be set up
1
visiting foreign students, for there is not a shoring
of empty rooms in Tower.

It’s Kingman, not Kingfish
To the Editor:

.

.

Samuel P., who wrote last week complaining
about that poor lady regent who talked about Java
at graduation, is something of a stupe himself.
There ain’t no Kingfish Brewster. The president of Yale is Kingman Brewster,
And furthermore, Java is nice.
I’m tired of reading jerky letters to the editor
anyway

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

Spectrum Staff Reporter

Basic plans for the development of the
State University of Buffalo’s new Amherst
Campus along a collegiate format were
discussed Friday by br. Claude E. Welch,
dean of University College, and Mr. Allen
Sapp, director of Cultural Affairs.
Ground breaking for the first six
colleges (which should be completed for

this fall if the University’s plans are
passed by the State Board of Trustees.
The first six buildings will be located in
the northwest section of the campus site.
This region was chosen because it will
provide highway access for college residents via Sweet Holme Rd., Skinnersville

Rd. and Millersport Hwy., and an area
safely removed from possible flooding by
Bllicott Creek.
The college type of campus arrangement is not a new concept. Several variations of collegiate organization have
evolved, particularly in undergraduate institutions.
Harvard and Yale have been using the
house and college systems for years, and
Michigan State and various branches of
the Universities of California, North Carolina, Indiana, Kansas and Massachusetts
have attempted to utlilize them more recently. Other universities of the New
York State system, Binghamton and Stony
Brook, are planning residential colleges at
present.

Schwab warns against
danger of student apathy
Student Association President Richard
Schwab proposed Monday that “representatives of all five student associations
meet within the month,” because they are
“drifting further and further from a real,
meaningful community student government,”

At a meeting of Sub-Board I Mr. Schwab
noted that committees of the Faculty Senate are forming and their machinery is beginning to work, while “students are doing little to cooperate in the efforts of formulating policy.”
“The implications of this trend

creative

problem-solving

Today is the final day of the 14th annual campus Creative Problem-Solving Institute.
The five-day program has involved nearly 300 persons from 36 states and Colombia, Norway, Brazil, France, the Republic of Panama and Paraguay.
The Institute is designed to develop
creative skills by means of a number of
inter-related programs. Basic course sessions, workshops, symposia, and discussions are designed to instill in students
the ability to sense, define and solve

problems creatively.
In addition to the participants, 120 experts in creative thinking are on hand to
serve as faculty, speakers, discussion leaders and resource personnel for the Institute.

Included are educators, leaders in gov-

ernment and business, military officers,
engineers, scientists, lawyers, journalists
and specialists in health, religion and wel-

fare.
The Institute opened Sunday evening
with a general assembly in Butler Auditorium, Capen Hall. Participants were
welcomed by Dr. E. K. Fretwell, presiednt of State University College and Dr.
Raymond Ewell, vice president for Research at State University of Buffalo. An
orientation address was presented by Dr.
Sidney Fames, director of the Creative
Problem-Solving Institute.

Creative instruction
Monday was the first of three days of
basic course sessions intended to provide
the equivalent of a semester course in the
development of creative behavior. Institute participants in small groups were instructed in: Gaining an Overview of the

Total Creative Problem-Solving Process;
Stretching Our Creative Abilities, and
Applying the Total Creative Problem-Solving Process to the Participant’s Own Problems. Advanced sessions for those who
had previously completed the course were
held concurrently.
Thursday and today the participants are
instructing several hundred specially invited members of Western New York
community groups in the methods of
creative problem-solving. These sessions
deal specifically with problems faced by
those involved in and working for com-

munity groups.
Sessions involve representatives of 35
area groups including the YMCA and
YWCA, the Community Welfare Council
of Erie County, and Build Us Too (BUST).

Workshop-symposium

several

special evening programs for the participants. Tuesday, two concurrent workshop-symposia were held in Norton Hall.
The first was led by Dr. Benedict J.
Surwill, principal of Campus School of
State University College, and stressed the

development of creative behavior in the

classroom. The second session dealt with

creative management methods. Dr. Joseph H. McPherson, manager of Personnel
Research and Development of Dow Chemical Co., was the speaker.
Concurrent with the Institute, a special
library of materials on creativity has been
made available to the Institute.
The Institute is co-sponsored by the
Creative Education Foundation of State
University College and the Office for
Continuing Education of the State University of Buffalo.

�Teach-in to study ‘subtle
aspects’ of white racism
Audience participation will be the key
factor at a teach-in on white racism tonight in the Millard Fillmore Room, Nor-

ton Hall.
Aecording to William Mayrl, one of the
program's coordinators, "We don’t care

Wallace sense. The teach-in will be most
successful if we can get a heated discussion going among all the people that
are there.”

The program will begin at 8 p.m.
Mr. Mayrl will discuss the dimensions
of racism in American society. Other participants will include: Dr. Edgar Z. Friedenberg of the Sociology and Education Departments; Dr. Lewis Perry of the History
Department; Dr. Mulford Q. Sibley, visiting professor of political science, and Dr.
Fred Snell, dean of the graduate school.
John Marciano and William Yates, the
program’s other coordinators, said that
the teach-in is designed to point out the
more “subtle” aspects of racism in Am-

erican society, which is basically a white

society.

They said that these aspects are those
which affect the white person who is not
prejudiced against blacks, but who lives
in a societal framework which does dis-

“A perfect example of this is the draft,”
said Mr. Yates. “White students sit up
here (at the University) with their 2-S deferments while black men are getting
drafted. We’re not actively discriminating
against blacks, but we’re putting up with
a society that does.”
Tonight’s program is the first in a series
to be presented this summer on white
racism. The coordinators hope that these
discussions will eventually lead to action
to change the racist aspects in American
society.

They are presently attempting to set up
courses during the fall semester dealing
with these problems. Some future plans
will be outlined at the teach-in tonight.

Nonsmokers have more
status, according to study
A study recently conducted by Dr.
Saxon Graham, professor of sociology and

of preventive medicine at the Slate University of Buffalo, indicates that nonsmoking may eventually become a status
symbol.

A random sampling of 3500 'males over
18 years of age was taken in the Buffalo
area.
Results indicate that nonsmokers and
successful quitters had a higher occupational and educational background. Dr.
Graham feels this is due simply to the
fact that “men in these groups are more
aware of the dangers of smoking.” The
most obvious example is that a large number of physicians have stopped smoking.
Although cigarette sales have continued
to increase in the past three years, Dr.
Graham feels that the figures may be
misleading. He notes that the sale of
cigarettes per capita has not increased,
and that gross sales are decreasing.
Dr. Graham says that the results might
have been slightly different if the study
had included women, as there is evidence
that smoking among women increases
with class. In general, however, he sees
a marked trend toward nonsmoking.
Dr. Graham studied four categories:
(1) those who had never smoked; (2) those

LET'S GO

who had tried to stop smoking and succeeded; (3) those who had tried to stop
smoking and failed, and (4) those who
had never tried to quit.
Other research he has conducted indicates that “risk of lung cancer increases
with the mean number of puffs taken per
cigarette and with increases in the average length of time taken to smoke a
cigarette regardless of age or amount
smoked per day , , . Smokers could lower
their risk by taking fewer puffs per
cigarette, taking them shortly after lighting up, and smoking with only short intervals between puffs.”
Dr. Graham’s interests in the fields of
sociology and preventive medicine involve him in social epidemiology. A fairly
new field, it attempts to trace the distribution patterns of various types of disease among different national, religious,
racial, class, occupational, residential and
other social groups.
In the near future, Dr. Graham plans a
joint research project with Dr. Kenneth
Newell and Dr. A. F, Wesson of the World
Health Organization. They will study acceptance and rejection patterns of people
in underdeveloped countries toward innovations, such as vaccines, which would
protect public health.

Masters chosen for
4 Amherst colleges
Mr. Allen Sapp, Dr. John V. Huddleston,
Lyle B. Borst and t)r. Mac Hammond
have been selected as the Masters for four
of the first six colleges to be built on the
new Amherst Campus site.

Dr.

sity College, announced that these men
were chosen because of their academic
qualifications and because of the vast enthusiasm shown by each for the college
system.

Mr. Sapp, presently director of Cultural
Affairs and professor of music at this University, was a teaching fellow at Harvard
University for eight years following his
graduation there. In 1958 he became a
lecturer in music at Wellesley College,
and in 1961 Mr. Sapp became head of the
department of music here.
In 1965 he was appointed head of the
Division of Languages, Literature and the
Arts, and in 1966 to his present post of
director of Cultural Affairs. He is also
co-director with Lukas Foss of the Center
for the Creative and Performing Arts.
Mr. Sapp has authored several musical
compositions and is active in numerous
societies in the community. He hopes to
have a drama department connected with
his college.
Self-government stressed
Dr. Lyle Borst was appointed professor
of physics at the University in 1962. He
is at present president of Sigma Zi, a
scientific research fraternity, and chairman of the local chapter of the American
Civil Liberties Union.
Dr. Borst said that he hopes his college
will be representative of the entire University, but that it will also contain a
majority of science students. He also
stressed the development of self-government within the college.
Dr. Mac Hammond, associate professor
of English and author of a volume of
poetry, came to this University in 1965
from Western Reserve. He is the newly
elected secretary of the Faculty Senate.
Dr. Hammond feels that the goal of his
college should be “to guide students in
the direction of being magnanimous
adults attuned to realities and possibilities.”

here since 1967, was associate professor of
Civil Engineering at Yale for 11 years. He
has published numerous treatises in his
field.
Dr. Huddleston is interested in the applied sciences for humanitarian purposes.
“I would like to see one college explore
the ways in which science and technology
are used to the detriment of mankind,
the way industry has focused upon the
increasing of profits and not that of helping man. I would like to see another college study the positive benefits to man
of science and technology.”

system of appeals will be implemented
with special emphasis placed on the development of good student leadership, according to Dr. Welch.
Student affiliation with a college will
be on a voluntary basis, but Dean Welch
said that he felt “the excitement of the
college concept and the wide range of
faculty and other student relationships
will make them popular among the students.”
A master will be assigned to each college to develop, along with student participation, the character of each particular
college. The first four masters who have
been appointed are: Dr. Lyle B. Borst,
professor of physics; Dr. Mac Hammond,
associate profesor of English; Dr. John
V. Huddleston, professor of engineering,
and Mr. Allen Sapp, director of Cultural
Affairs and professor of music.

Physical plans

The first six college structures will be
comparatively low structures of three or
four floors. Each college will consist of
various groupings of single rooms, suites,
faculty residences, and the master’s living and working area.

...

Student living areas may consist of two
or four bed suites, two graduate suites,
two single rooms, and a general room
with living area, dining room and storage.
The colleges will share satellite kitchens, thereby cutting food costs and service as well as saving space.
It is estimated that each college will
have approximately 1000 students affili-

ated with it—about 400 residents and 600
commuters. Each college will also have
a library and reading rooms, seminar
rooms, administrative offices, laundry facilities, snack bars and other services and
sport activity areas.
Of the first six colleges being built, one
will contain a photography and ceramics
workshop, and others will have a swimming pool, drama workshop and a computing center.

Dr. Welch cautioned that this tentative
program must still be verified in Albany,
and that this is only a sketch rather than
a blueprint. However, he felt confident
that the trustees would agree with him
that it is time for education to “regroup
and reidentify,”
He noted: “In order to grow big we
must grow smaller.”

A solution may soon be found to the
perennial question of what to do with 510
acres of flat land owned by the FacultyStudent Association near the Amherst
Campus site.
The land was bought by the FSA for
$750,000, four years ago, and ever since
it has been a source of conflict for the
official FSA land use committee and the
Graduate Student Association.
The GSA protested so violently at
earlier “immoral” proposals made by the
land use committee to use the land for
purely recreational purposes that SubBoard I instructed the committee to re-

consider its recommendations.
After considering the GSA counterproposals, which included an urban community relief program, and a student
opinion poll conducted by The Spectrum,
the final recommendations of the committee were submitted to Richard Schwab,
chairman of FSA Sub-Board I last week.
The report, compiled by Robert Henderson, land use committee chairman,
recommends that the 510 acres near the
new Amherst Campus site should be developed as a nature park, a nine-hole
golf course, and a childern’s recreation

The nature park would be kept free

barrier to this development is the ffict
that all the FSA land is flat, open farmland barren of heavy foliage.

Golf course: profitable
The nine-hole golf course recommended for the northeast corner of the land

has been justified as revenue producing
and would offer time and price advantages to the University community. No
definite plans for the layout of the course
have yet been considered.
The children’s recreation area would
include the present picnic and recreational area near Sweet Home Rd. and
would expand these areas northward. The
primary focus here would be for the University community. But, as Mr. Henderson pointed out, the facilities will be
open to Community Aid Corps and other
Urban Aid groups who wish to provide
recreational opportunities for ghetto children.
Mr, Henderson said
that his committee
has recommended the immediate development of this area, and that this much
at
least could be accomplished over the
summer, provided the recommendation is
accepted by Sub-Board I which has the
final say.
Mr. Henderson said that the recommendations of his committee were guided
by a questionnaire printed in The Spectrum March 15. This limited sample (271
responses) of student opinion was, because of its nature, used only as a guideline rather than a mandate.
Although only 51% of the response

favored a

and recreational area, 73% were neutral
or in favor of having the facility. The
nature park and picnic area also received

Finances were also a problem for the
committee because no estimate on the
probable available capital has been made
for the FSA land.

Oral Health Service
expanding operations
Staff

Reporter

“If you don’t like students, you don’t belong here. If you don’t practice good dentistry, you don’t belong here either."
This comment by Dr. George Goldtarb,
dental director of the Student Oral Health
Service, sums up the goals of what he
hopes will eventually be a complete student dental service. He hopes that professional. student-oriented dental service will
one day be available to all students.
The modest beginnings toward this end
are presently housed in 1200 square feet
of dormitory space on the second floor of
Michael Hall. Included here are waiting
room, administrative offices, examination
and treatment rooms, and a darkroom. Because of limited space, funds and personnel, the service is limited to three categories, two of which are emergency care and

diagnosis.
Beyond this there is little actual treatment. Students might be referred to a private dentist, but because of lack of facilities, treatment is not possible.
The third category, which is given the
most emphasis, is preventive dentistry.
According to Dr, Goldfarb, it is estimated
that an effective program of preventive
dentistry can decrease cavities and oral
disease by approximately 40%. He explained that preventive dentistry is painless dentistry which can save time and
money as well as increase the patient’s
comfort. It is easier to prevent cavities
than to go through the ordeal of treating
them once they are formed.
During the course of the regular school
year, priority is given to students in the

perience.
During the summer this care is being
offered free to students on a first come,
first served basis, as far as limited facilities allow. Service includes a dental examination and X-rays. Students can also have
their teeth cleaned and receive a floride
application.
In addition, a film explaining the value
of preventive dentistry is being prepared
in cooperation with the Audio-Visual Department, and will be in use within a short

time.

Dr. Goldfarb urged that as many students as possible take advantage of this
service. Those interested may call Mrs. Jill
Senzer at 831-5341, from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.
any weekday but Wednesday.

Pilot program

The dental service being offered makes
this University one of the few in the nation that concern themselves with the oral
health of their students. This is largely because of the commitment of University
Health Service Director Paul F. Hoffmann
to the idea that complete health service
for students includes dental care.
The present facilities are seen as a pilot
program from which a complete dental
health service will evolve. Although at the
present time service is limited mainly to
preventive dentistry, Dr. G o 1 d f a r b expressed a desire to see the program become a comprehensive oral health center
where students can receive professional

care.

Bill Buckley loses again
Special to the Spectrum

Controversial conservative columnist William Buckley Jr. continues to have his problems with the electorate.
Running in protest of Yale's "liberal bias" Mr. Buckley was
of
defeated by Cyrus Vance for a seat on the University's board

alumni trustees
Mr. Vance has been one of President Johnson's chief trouble
shooters for the past few years. He is presently serving as deputy
chief of the American delegation to the Paris peace talks.
The election resulted in a record vote. Almost half of Yale's
65,000 eligible degree holders cast a ballot.
Keeping with tradition, the University did not release election
figures. If is believed, however, that Mr. Vance won a relatively
easy victory over Mr. Buckley. John Mussner of St, Paul finished
third.

Mr. Buckley was defeated by John Lindsay in New York City's
1965 mayoral election. Mr. Lindsay already serves on the board,
formally known as the Yale Corporation, which owns and operates
the University.
Mr. Buckley hoped to become the first Roman Catholic and
third petition candidate ever to win a seat on the board.
However, according to Michael Koenig, who represented the
class of 1963, he was "a little too conservative for the typical Yale
*

graduate."
"I'm quite relieved," Mr. Koenig added.
Mr. Buckley reacted to the defeat with his usual candor: "I
congratulate Mr. Vance, and I hope he follows the same ideas I do."
One Buckley vote was cast by 85 year old Vasa Bracher, a
representative of the class of 1903. Mr. Bracher "thought he'd be
a good member of the corporation—shake 'em up, maybe."
The election was summed up well by the Rev. William Sloan
Coffin Jr., the Yale chaplain who was recently convicted of conspiracy to counsel evasion of the draft:
"I'm sure we'll hear from Bill Buckley again."

has been a result of their first record album called “Are You Experienced.”
The group plays music that has been
described as “accidental,” not so much as
the style attributed to the Cream, but
more like three blind men running the
one hundred yard dash. This is adroitly
seen in the aforementioned album.
Decidedly the quintessence of Hendrix
so far, (“Are You Experienced”) is full of
deep blues with a brash interlacing of
avant-garde electronic modulations. Cuts
on this album run the full spectrum of
Jimi Hendrix and his immense talents.
They range from the straight hard rock
of ‘fFire” to the electronic love song “Foxy
Lady.”

Southern blues

electronics

Throughout the whole album we are
able to see the strong influence of Muddy Waters and others of the same mus-

ical genre. Hendrix has taken this background and has come up with songs like
“Purple Haze,” a mixture of deep heavy
southern blues and the many electronic
oscillations for which Hendrix is known.
In the title song of this album, “Are
You Experienced," we are witness to what
seems to be an ardent love affair between
man and guitar. One can just feel emotion
being poured into Hendrix’s guitar as he
takes us on a wild journey into the worlds
of the surrealistic and macabre.
Another journey into the world of the
future is the highly experimental tune
entitled “Third Stone From the Sun.” At
the end of this highly exciting song we
hear a guitar making itself out to be a
train rolling along the countryside of hell.

their rendition of “Hey Joe” and “Fire,’

After this album reached all time highs,
as far as sales go, Hendrix and his creatures spurned from the womb of hell came
up with their latest outing entitled “Axis:
Bold as Love.”

music. The lyrics are stressed a little bit
more than the music which is at its usual
peak of efficiency.

The lead cut on this album is a beauty
called “EXP” and boldly interplays the
voice, drums, bass and guitar. In this tune
he stereo machine becomes a heckler and
taunts the ear as it switches music from
speaker to speaker. Hendrix, the best guitar player on the scene, starts his second
outing with what seems to be non-guitar
sounds. The song is a satire on the many
UFO believers all over the world.

The one song on this album that seems
to express explicitly the philosophy of
Hendrix is the tune “If a 6 Were a 9,” in
which he states that he is doing his own
thing and nobody but nobody is going to
change him and we’ll “wave his freak flag
high, high.”

Steppenwolf

Some of the most interesting guitar and
lyric work to come out of the rock scene
emanates from the group that calls them-

selves “Steppenwolf.”
In the lead cut on their album (entitled,
by the way, “Steppenwolf”) the group
gives us a song which is rich in blue-eyed
soul and hard driving guitar work. The
song called “Sookie Sookie” is really a
pleasure to listen to with its marriage of
soul music with some guitar work that,
for want of a better term, can be labelled

psychedelic.

The instrumentals

Anyone who has tuned in a rock station
recently is bound to hear an interesting
record with a strange “whoomping sound:
by
“The Good, the Bad, and the
Hugo Montenegro. It is only the latest
record of a form of music that has been
with rock 'n roll since its inception—the

instrumental.
The instrumental rests its merits solely

on melody.

Perhaps that is why only four or five
instrumentals capture our attention each
year, and why we remember them for so
long.

The first instrumental of this musical

era was “Canadian Sunset” by Hugo Win-

terhalter in 1955. The Big Bands had
passed from the scene almost a decade
before this, but nothing had replaced the
swing of Goodman-Dorsey-Miller. “Canadian Sunet” was the first instrumental
to incorporate a backbeat, gentle as it
was, and it marked the end of one dynasty
in music and the birth of a new one.

Blossom White,” which had been issued
a few months earlier, was the last of
Latin-American swing records, the last
record to hark back to the ’40s. From
then on, it was a steady build-up of backbeat which culminated in the hard-rock
instrumentals of the late fifties.

most recent book, "The Temporary SocietyThe

The true instrumentals are still vividly

Movies were also starting to contribute

to the deluge with such songs as Exodus,
El Cid, More, Pink Panther, Magnificent
Seven, The Alamo, Never On Sunday, and
The Apartment. A few novelty instrumentals even managed to creep in: Alley
Cat, Desifanado and Green Onions.

Alpert losing authenticity

But even with the mass production of
instrumentals, only one artist managed to
produce a series of hits: Herb Alpert.
Starting with “The Lonely Bull” (which
I still consider his finest record), he recorded one instrumental after another to
an ever increasing audience. Today he is
considered the number one recording artist of 1968 (Billboard). But in recent
years, he has limited himself merely to
playing songs that have already made it
big. Admittedly, he plays them better
than most, but he is no longer producing
true instrumentals.
And that has been the philosophy of instrumentals for the last few years. Only
“Cast Your Fate to the Wind” squeaked
past the Hollyridge Strings and the Boston
Pops in the past three years. Perhaps that
is why “Love is Blue” created such a
storm. It was the first true instrumental
after a long draught of pretenders. (“Walk
in the Black Forest” was based upon a
public domain song and “A Man and a
Woman” was from a French film.)

Into obscurity?

Paul Muriat and Hugo Montenegro will
probably go the way of Santo and Johnny
(“Sleepwalk”), the Royal Tacos (“Flamingo Express”), Sandy Nelson (“Let There
Be Drums”), and of countless others (semiobscurity or, in many cases, utter demise).
For the instrumental bridges the gap between the musical generations, and both
generations make heavy demands upon it.
Only Herb Alpert has managed to ride
this musical surfboard for so long, and to
do so he had to replace the vitality of
his early recordings with a vague blandness.

A hot pennant race apears in the offing
for the National Baseball League this season. In contrast to last year, when the St.
Louis Cardinals won with ease, six teams
are bunched tightly together, with only
five games separating first place St. Louis
and sixth place Philadelphia,
The 1968 St. Louis Cards remind one of
the old “Gashouse Gang” of the ’30s when
Dizzy Dean was master of the mound and
Terry Moore patrolled the outfield.
The current Cards present the best balanced team in the NX. Although they do
not excell greatly in any of the four critical departments (pitching, hitting, defense
and speed) they do not lack in any either.
Their pitching rests on the arms of Bob
Gibson (remember the ’67 World Series?),
Steve Carlton (7-1) and Nelson Briles
(7-4). Speed brings forth Lou Brock (55
stolen bases in 1967), Curt Flood and
Julian Javiar.
Hitting gives us Orlando Cepeda, Curt
Flood (.327), Roger Maris and Tim McCarver. The defense boasts of Dale Maxvill, McCarver and Mike Shannon.

Dodgers have Drysdale

Hot on the Cards’ trail are the L.A. Dodgers and the Atlanta Braves, currently
the second and third place teams. The Dodgers have excellent pitching in Don Drysdale (six straight shutouts and 58 2/3 con-

secutive scoreless innings), Bill Singer,
Claude Osteen and Howie Kekich. The acquisition of Rocky Colavito and Ken Boyer
from the Chicago White Sox has added
considerable punch to an otherwise weak
batting attack.
There is no question that if the Dodgers are to threaten the Cards’ hold on
first place, they will have to rely on their
strong pitching and sharp fielding. It is
well to remember that the ’63, ’65 and ’66
pennant winning Dodger teams were built
along similar lines.
The Atlanta Braves, on the other hand,

combine barely adequate pitching with
strong hitting, (Felix Milan at .303, Felipe
Alou at .324 and Hank Aaron. It is not advisable for Braves fans to get pennant
fever because the list of teams winning
titles possessing poor pitching is very
small. If the Braves are to threaten St.
Louis seriously over a long season, they
must improve in the hurling department.

Giants: 'sleepers'

The San Francisco Giants, currently in
fourth place, must be considered the
“sleeper” of all the contending teams. The
only thing holding the Giants down is
their lack of consistent defense and pitching.

The Giants possess three of the top four
homerun hitters in Jim Hart, Willie Mays,
and Willie McCovey. Throw in pitchers
Juan Marichal (10-2), Mike McCormick
(1967 Cy Young award winner), Frank
Linzy and Gaylord Perry, and one wonders why the Giants aren’t in first place.
The one team that is perhaps a bigger
mystery than the Giants is the Philadelphia Phillies. Whereas one wonders what
holds the Giants down, one also wonders
what holds the Phillies up. Philadelphia
has little more than Richie Allen, Bill
White and perhaps pitcher Woody Fry-

man

(8-5).

At best, the Phillies can be taken with
a grain of salt.

Cincinnati?

Another leading contender (along with
San Francisco and Philadelphia) for the
1968 mystery team has to be the Cincinnati Reds. The Reds possess the leading
hitter (Pete Rose at .358), the number
three hitter (Alex Johnson at .327), and
the number nine hitter (Tommy Helms
at .302). They also have Tony Perez, who
currently leads in RBI’s with 34. Yet their
pitching leaves something to be desired.
In the final analysis, the St. Louis Cardinals will prevail, but not before an exciting and highly stimulating pennant
battle.

The answer is a man named Howie Plaster. Now in his fifth season as the general
manager of State University of Buffalo’s
Hockey Club, Plaster has literally made a
dream come true. The story of the Buffalo Hockey Club is also the story of one
Howie Plaster.
In 1963, Plaster, a young history grad
student, found himself the general manager of a hockey club which had no money.
In the club’s earlier days, hockey was a
self-supporting proposition. The players
had to supply their own equipment (at a
cost of more than $100 per man) as well as
pick up the ice tab for both practices and
games.
It was rough gomg in 1963, but the Student Senate bailed out the Hockey Bulls
with some badly needed funds, and Plaster's club was off the hook temporarily.

That year the hockey club paid dividends on the Senate’s investment as the
club posted a 14-2 record in the newly
formed Finger Lakes Hockey League to
finish second to unbeaten HIT.

Equipment gift
But General Manager Piaster had more
bridges to cross. The 1964-65 season saw
the Hockey Bulls once again fighting for

their very survival. The student senators
threatened to cut off all financial aid to
the club because they felt that hockey
came under the auspices of the Athletic
Department, while the Athletic Department countered that it couldn’t help the
club because of its own tight budget. Only
some very effective lobbying by Plaster
and his playerg saved the Bulls from demise as the Senate backed down.
It was then that Mr. Peele, the athletic
director, foreseeing the future potential of
the team, helped out with almost $1000
worth of equipment. The 1964-65 club was
10-3 for the season, but with heavy graduation the Bulls slipped to 5-7 during the
1965-66 season, and a 7-7 record for the
following year.

Softball

—Valbarg

Some day about three years from now,
when ice hockey is the number one sport
at this University ’ some interested stu
dent is going to ask: “Who was responsible
for bringing big time ice hockey to the
State University of Buffalo?”

Each conference will boast nine teams.
The league schedule will limit teams to
intra-conference competition. Each entry will battle all of its conference foes
once with the divisional champions ultimately meeting in a “University Series”
for the league crown.
Games will be played Monday through
Friday at 4:30 p.m. on diamonds near
Clark Gymnasium, Teams are scheduled to
play at least once a week during the
June 24 to Aug. 14 session.
The league is open to all male summer
session faculty, staff and students. Departments and organizations are invited
to select a team representative and enter
the competition. Pre-season betting lines
list the boys from biochemistry as likely
pennant favorites. Nearly all the members of 1967’s biochemist squad, which
captured the league championship, have
inked 1968 contracts to play.

With financial difficulties

way, Piaster was able to

out of the

concentrate on

recruiting good hockey players, which
brought another problem to the forefront.
The State University of Buffalo gave no
hockey scholarships. How was Plaster to
lure good hockey players to this University if he had nothing to offer? The solution offered interesting possibilities.
Knowing that his best chance to get
good hockey talent lay in securing players
who wanted to remain near home, Plaster
moved to nearby Canada prior to the 196768 hockey season. Results were almost beyond human expectations.

With uncanny salesmanship and a magnetic personality, Flaster succeeded in
snatching Lome Rombough from the
clutches of Colgate. Yale and Michigan
State, and bringing Lome here. Along with
Rombough came Billy Newman, a highly
sought prospect who scored 29 goals' for
the Niagara Falls Flyers. Getting Billy
Newman wasn’t enough, so Flaster also
brought back Billy’s father, Steve, as the

club’s trainer and assistant coach.
From St. Catharine’s came Bill DeFoe, a
highly polished defenseman who could
score. Flaster also paid a visit to nearby
Fort Erie and corraled Franky Lewis, Jimmy Miller and Bill Tape—three key players from the Ft, Erie B’s. Buffalo Muny
League scoring champion Daryl Pugh was
all set to go to Oswego State, that is/ before he talked to Flaster. Pugh decided not
to go to Oswego, and found that a Buffalo
uniform fit pretty well.

But in addition to talented personnel,
Howie Flaster gave his hockey players a
team spirit—a sense of pride which carried
the Bulls through a tough hockey season.
Before the 1967-68 season got under way,
Flaster told his players: “We’re going to
go undefeated. We’re going to take the
Finger Lakes Hockey League pennant.”
The rest is history. The Hockey Bulls
did go undefeated with a 15-0 league record, The Hockeymen did bring the glory
of a FLHL pennant to this University, and
along the way Lome Rombough broke every league scoring record ever set with 37
goals.

On March 10, the Bulls played defending
champions Oswego State for the Finger
Lakes Hockey League invitational tournament championship in one of the most important athletic encounters ever staged at
this University. The Bulls, after having an
apparent winning goal disallowed, bowed
5-4 in overtime to a powerful Oswego Six.
fans at
Even in defeat, Flaster and 1500
the Amherst Recreational Center could
not have been any prouder of the Buffalo
Hockey Club.

Still hard at work
But the general manager of the Buffalo

Hockey Club is not resting on his laurels,
With the memories of a dream season behind him, Piaster is already working hard
on the 1968-69 season, a season which will
see the finest Buffalo Hockey Club in history take the ice. Plaster is going recruit
ing again, and that means anything can
happen. This past season the Buffalo Hockeymen had the League’s top six scorers.
The league’s number seven and eight
scorers, Johnny Caruso and Terry Quenville, both of Canton Tech, will be coming
to the State University of Buffalo next
season. Howie Plaster leaves no stone un-

turned.

So we drove on until five a.m. arriving at Whiteshell Provincial Park here in Manitoba. We went
there because W-w wanted a shower. This sort of
nice harrassed individual at said park said that they
intend to build them this summer.
Or would you rather hear about how we drove
across 200 miles of gravel highway and wound up
with so much garbage in the brakes that we had to
have them blown out with an air hose?
Or how about the 15-inch pike that was so
ashamed of being caught by so inept a fisherman as
myself that he didn’t even fight, but just followed
the lure in without even arguing. He ate well even
if he was placid. (Non-violence does not extend to
food animals in reasonable quantities which I am
not given a chance to empathize with. like I have

was sort of assumed
by both myself and the summer Spectrum staff
when I left that communication of some sort on a
regular basis would be maintained. If I may be forgiven by the tourist associations of Ontario and
Manitoba for speaking the truth, the problem has

located in middle Manitoba. It

been weather.
The Steeses managed two good days in Toronto
—nice weather, nice town, good people—before hitting the road. As soon as we left Toronto, we moved
into an overcast gray drizzly sort of goop which has
stayed over us for seven days. It finally broke yesterday and today seems to be fulfilling the promise
that the bright blue skies held last night.
Between the overcast skies and the events of the
last week, it seemed of very doubtful value to try
to write anything coherent. I can recall very clearly
the feeling of horror, shock and disbelief that I felt
when I turned on the radio in a remote, wooded,
almost deserted camping area to hear that our sane,
healthy, benevolent society had lost another of its
hopes for the future.
There are a number of thoughts that strike me
that no one else seems to be expressing. The fascinating fact that conservatives are never shot at is obvious—or at least nobody I know has ever pointed
out to me that there has even been an attempt on a
prominent member of the Tightest element of our
society. Granted that the political character is similar, it seems almost to defy belief that all of these
men should be so young, in terms at least of the
power structure in the United States today.
Without really wishing to seem paranoid, the
thought of some secret association of ancient conservatives secretly controling people through brain
waves seems almost more probable than the odds
against two brothers of the same family and the
leading black moderate of the mid sixties being shot
within five years, and the last within months of
each other.
The frightening concept of it being a crime
against nature to be at all liberal and be at all
powerful seems not too distant from reality . No
more distant surely than the reaction of the President. One has the feeling that if LBJ were to be
shot tomorrow, he would lie there with his last
breath proclaiming the health of the society he gov-

sticking worms on hooks.)
Will close this on the note that hopefully things
will be kept cool enough on the home front so that
I will not be afraid of sedition if I try to write something. Oh, and if anybody has the time, would you

Not that I wish the violence which puzzles Lyndon so much to strike him or anyone else. It may
be he is truly mad, or at least his inability to see
that violence is violence is violence.

Attention you wandering minstrels and
excursion goers: The University Union Activities Board is out to capture your fleeting attention this summer.
On July 6 the UUAB is sponsoring a
tour of the Corning Glass Center in Corning, N.Y., a crystal clear example of
American craft; but enough of these Corning jokes. On with the trip.
Coming will be polished off with a visit
to the Gold Seal Winery of Hammondsport. This promises to be a lively, tipsy
demonstration of the most popular use
of the glass made in Corning.
For the ardent theater devotee
two
weekend excursions to Stratford are also
planned, July 13-14 and Aug. 10-11. The
first will provide a choice of viewing the

John R. Pillion, locally, was defeated for the GOP endorsement in the 39th Congressional District, by a littleknown Cheektowaga supervisor, Daniel E. Weber. Pillion was
the Republican candidate in that district for 16 years.
Further indications of growing voter impatience with
current politics include the defeat of all four Buffalo City
Common Councilmen who were seeking higher office.
All this may point to a trend a growing one, we hope

The last summer

This is the summer that everyone has been so anxiously
awaiting.
These next three months could see cities turned into
battlegrounds in America or battlegrounds turned into cities
in South Vietnam. We may see the heat of political passion
produce Presidential candidates who react with the misguidance of the past or respond to a vision of the future.
The fire of combat may make this a last summer for the college student. Whatever course events may take, this is the
last summer for President Johnson
This is also the summer of decision for universities. This
is the last summer that schools can self-righteously regard
themselves as paternal proctors of the minds of the young.
This is the last summer that students can remain apathetic
to their societies.
This is the last summer that professors will have to remain aloof from those they teach. This is the last summer
that the American people can afford to let pass without
realizing that they are no longer a frontier society.
This is the last summer in which the disregarding of
the poor, the disrepecting of the black and the arming of
the ignorant can be tolerated.
And it is the last summer for the powerholders of old.
Be they Communist, Capitalist, or committed only to themselves, this is the time of their last hurrah.
The powerless of the world are also experiencing their
last summer. Because the request for change is becoming a
universal demand for the power to make those changes. Some
societies will have gentle reforms before next summer while
others will suffer cruel revolutions. But this is the last summer for the complacent, changeless governments of the
modern world.

Now, Mrs. Slominski

Refractions
by J. L. McCrary
historians
and political scientists sit down
When
to write up this topsy-turvy—sometimes tragicpolitical year, perhaps one significant element will
escape their skilled perusal. Accordingly, perhaps
fittingly, J. L. notes it here.

This was the political year that the young
got involved—and got
involved in a big way.

voter, the college student,

Look around you. Look around Buffalo. On
Elmwood Ave., near Utica St. stands a McCarthy
for President headquarters, a makeshift storefront headquarters.
By the time you read this they’ll probably be
moving out. But their activism and their interest
in politics will never move out.
A week ago, this hot-shot silver-throated columnist visited that headquarters in the unbiased nonpolitical fashion.

First thing you notice is that it’s not like the
election night headquarters you see on TV —before
CBS’ VPA has given it all away. There’s no tickertape, no dancing and hugging, no gaily dressed,
straw-hatted folk, no indeed.
The mood at McCarthy headquarters a week
before primary was almost somber. Campaign
workers talked in hushed voices. Long-still flourescent lamps buzzed incessantly overhead. The
four or five students manning the office conducted
a broken, rambling conversation —about the Kennedy assassination, about McCarthy’s chances, about
how they got involved, what happens after the
primary, after Chicago . .

A time to control guns
To the Editor:
The time has come for the people of this country
to do something about the control of weapons. Too
long has this topic been ignored. It is about time
for the government to treat guns in this same way
in which they do automobiles.

All firearms should be registered, and to use one
a person must have to have a license. Before either
one is given, the State should make a study of the
history of the person applying. To take this one step
further, all guns should be sold only through staterun stores, in the same way as is liquor in a number
of states.

They are tired and impatient. And Tuesday was a clearcut victory for Senator Eugene McCarthy, symbol of the new
path in politics. Because Paul O’Dwyer, a McCarthy backer
with” decisive support in New York City, won the Democratic
nomination for United States Senator.
O’Dwyer was expected to finish behind well-known Nassau County Executive Eugene Nickerson and Ellenville Congressman Joe Resnick, a multi-millionaire who seemed to be

But he beat them. And the McCarthy camp can be proud.
Senator McCarthy also emerged the winner in the State-wide

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950.

Editor

Councilman-at-Large Edward Began has
called for “vigorous initiative” in “three
crucial areas of endeavor” including “the
growth of the State University of Buffalo.”

He also stressed Buffalo’s urgent need
of “rejuvenating downtown Buffalo,” and
“building a rapid transit system linking
downtown with north Buffalo and Amherst.”
Councilman Regan, a Republican, expressed the opinion in a recent speech at
ECTI that if we can succeed in these three
interrelated fields, “the Buffalo area can
soon jump 50 years ahead of any other
metropolitan area of its size in the nation.”
He made clear the potential impact of
the State University of Buffalo on the
community by stating that it “has trained
its sights on building within the next
decade the biggest graduate school and
law school in the nation, and the third
biggest educational institution of any
type in the world.”
Mr. Regan predicted that by 1975 the
University will have doubled its present
enrollment and have become “the Niagara Frontier’s biggest employer.” By
this time, he added, State University of
Buffalo students will be spending more
than $25 million in this area on nonacademic expenses each year.
The councilman-at-large feels that “this
educational complex is sure to attract all
kinds of new, sophisticated industries to
the Niagara Frontier.”

Stable Buffalo campus
Mr, Regan feels that recent student uprisings around the nation “should wipe
away our negative attitude as we begin to
appreciate the stability that pervades the
Buffalo campus.”

Private colleges’ interest in receiving
state aid should serve as a warning to

Buffalonians, according to the legislator.
“If we in Buffalo,” he explained, “show
little interest in our own State University,
it is conceivable that the funds that
should go to the State University of
Buffalo may be siphoned elsewhere.”
The councilman said that progress has
been made in rejuvenating the downtown
area. He added, however, that a “new
stadium must be built on the Crossroads
site to sustain and quicken the impetus of
downtown renewal.”
If we “group

our assets,” Mr. Regan
feels that “Buffalo can have one of the
most dynamic downtowns in the nation.”
Councilman Regan considers a rapid
transit system the “only wise alternative
to digging a six-lane highway down the
city’s midsection, with cloverleaf interchanges entangling so much valuable
land.”

“But with a stadium located to make
downtown boom, and with the State University of Buffalo mushrooming, Buffalo
could be in a position to pull a master
stroke by linking the Main St. and Amherst campuses and downtown with a
rapid-transit system.”

The Buffalo Common Council Tuesday
voted in favor of an amendment to the
city building code, which, unless vetoed
by Mayor Sedita, outlaw the use of portable classrooms in city schools.
The portable units were planned as
part of the Board of Education’s policy of
integration. They would have been used
to enlarge facilities in schools in predominantly white neighborhoods, so that black
grammar school students
could be bussed
in.

The amendment passed by a 9-4 vote
with Councilmen
Delmar Mitchell, Horace
Johnson, Charles Black and Stanley Makowski opposed. Councilman Carl A. Perla
Jr. and Andrew J. Morrisey were absent.

In an effort to move from dialogue to

A group of undergraduates, home from
college for the summer, have enlisted

in the city high schools.
A research committee has begun study
of the ethnic and political history of Buffalo.
Carl Ratner and Jerry Coles, both doctoral candidates at the University, are cochairing a faculty-student committee to
study desegregation in public schools.
Their first effort will be to aid high school
teachers in counteracting a pamphlet, entitled “How classroom desegregation will
work,” which is being mailed to public
school teachers throughout Buffalo and
Erie County. The report, published by
Patrick Henry Press in Richmond, Va.,
was written by Dr. Henry E, Garrett. Mr.
Yates said the pamphlet aims to prove that
“Negroes are innately and inherently inferior.”

Teases

Ridge Lea
Construction continues at the Ridge Lea
location of the interim campus.
According to William F. Doemland,
director of planning and development,
two of three proposed buildings wjll be
completed by Sept. 1 and April 1 respectively. These will be utilized for

classroom and office space.
The third building, planned for completion at a later date, is designed for
eventual use as laboratory space as it is
needed. Until this space is so needed,
the building will temporarily accommodate classrooms and offices.
Library, cafeteria and recreational facilities, built to accommodate an increased number of students, are regarded
as complete, with no future enlargements
envisioned at this time. Bus service, however, will be adjusted for increased student volume.
The interim campus, when completed,
is intended to meet the needs of the University during the transitional period preceding the completion of the Amherst
site of the State University of Buffalo.
The Ridge Lea campus, the site planned
at Elmwood Ave., and various other acquisitions throughout the city, are to
accommodate the increases in student en-

rollment, faculty, and services that are
necessary before the final move to the
larger Amherst campus can be completed.
According to Charles S. Green, assistant
director of planning and development, the
interim campus was not necessitated by
delays in building the Amherst site, but
was planned as an “emergency valve” for
the increasing University population and
accompanying services.

The interim campus is to tie in with
both the present Main St. location and the
Amherst campus, where construction is
planned to begin in 1970-71, and will last
until about 1974. The reason for the
Ridge Lea location is its convenience to
both the Main St. and Amherst sites.
Since the interim campus is only temporary, money could not be allocated from
building funds for the Amherst location.
Money for the temporary sites comes from
rental and operational expenses of the
University.

The sites are on a five year lease with
of one year renewal options.
Neither the land nor the buildings are
owned by the University. Both will revert back to the development contractors
when the Amherst campus is completed.

classrooms would be a means of relieving
overcrowding in the Buffalo school system. He mentioned that 40 cities are now
using portable classrooms—three for integration, the rest to relieve overcrowding.
He suggested tabling the amendment
until a committee could be appointed to
study, the problem further.

Councilman Black said that while the
United States is technologically advanced,
socially we lag behind. He quoted lines of
a poem by Edward Mark: “in vain we
build the world/Unless man also grows.”

Democratic Councilman Raymond Lewandowski, supporting the amendment, denied that it is intended to be discriminatory. Referring to last week’s legislation
committee meeting when a brief shoving
match occurred, between Councilmen and
members of BUILD, he said: “The issue is
no longer integration; it is regimentation
or anarchy.”

He suggested that instead of forcing
children to study- in what Councilman
Buyers referred to as “portable outhouses,” the city should concentrate on
building and improving schools in the
core

areas.

Councilmen Lyman, Regan, Buyers and
Slominski agreed with Mr. Lewandowski
that funds should be provided to improve
schools in the core areas.

Mr. Buyers, a Republican, opposed the
portable classrooms because of construction problems, such as heating, illumination and fire hazards. He said that the

To us, the record was wholly absurd
and totally ludicrous. But to the primary
school set, he may become an idol. The
point is not whether Britt can turn on the
first-graders of this country, but that
they are capable of pressuring their doddering parents in coughing up the $.89.
With many of the parents supporting a
Barbie doll family, complete with maternity dress and divorce court, little Steve
might get his gold record quite easily.
The music marketplace has become an
overwhelming bazaar of lavish stalls
catering to all tastes and fancies. Folk,
rock, folk-rock, raga, raga-rock, electronic,
psychedelic soul music all have their own
followings. There is no predominant sound
as there was before the Beatles.

I am not attempting to overstate the
contribution that the Beatles have made
to our present music. It is just that they
make a handy demarcation on my musical
timeline. Before the Beatles there was
fairly solid teen market. It supported a
broad, rather bland, rock’n’roll Sound. It
\was flexible enough to support some folk
and Motown-soul without letting either
usurp its dominance or divide the market.
The Beatles carried on in this tradition with their first hits. But once they
took off into experimentation with electronic and chance music, the younger set
dropped out. With the intensification of
the war in 1965-1966, the older, collegeorientated members of the buying society
demanded serious songs that carried a
message.

Already the market was cracking into
several sub-groups. The emergence of

And so, another star is born. Hero of

destiny of this nation, is now in your
hands. With Steve Britt leading you on,
to the tune of “These Boots are Made for
Walking” and “Let Me In” (draw your own
inferences, you dirty, old college men),
you are shattering the Musical Establishment of this corrupt society. Don’t fret
that your alternatives, like those of your
college brethren, are none too appealing.
Remember that you are carrying on in
the noble tradition of the rebelling, revolting American youth of today. We who

The Council also voted against overriding the mayor’s veto of a referendum on
the portable classroom issue. The vote
was 7 to 6 in favor, but 10 votes were
needed for passage.

The meeting was interrupted for about

ten minutes when Rev. Robert Moore of

the group Build Us Too was denied permission to address the Council. Council
President Gorski ruled that only councilmen and department heads could speak.

A group of about 50 people supporting
Rev. Moore then marched out of the council room singing “The Battle Hymn of the
Republic.” The doors were locked and the
group continued to sing for some time in
the corridor.
During the course of the meeting, Mr.
Gorski twice threatened to clear the room
following outbursts of applause from the
capacity audience.

money kept rolling in.

This all goes to prove one point. The
dollar bill reigns supreme in the American sports scene. It’s a sickening thought.
Fortunately, this does not apply to the
entire world of sports. The middleweight
boxing match between Emile Griffith and

Andy Heilman was postponed last Friday
at Oakland. Minor league baseball did
give it a half effort. AH Sunday games
were postponed in deference to the late
senator but most teams in the International League had doubleheaders Saturday night immediately following the

senator’s burial.

Buffalo’s All-American catcher Brian
Hansen and pitcher-centerfielder Ken Rutkowski were among the 1050 players selected by professional baseball during the
two day draft.
Hansen, a .477 slugger and a first team
College Division All-American catcher,
was selected by the Philadelphia Phillies
of the National Baseball League. In a day
when good young catching prospects are
at a premium, Hansen has quite a future
ahead of him.
Rutkowski, who carried over a .300 batting average for his three year varsity
career, was tabbed by the San Francisco
Giants, also of the National Baseball

Sunday against Pittsburgh. Houston’s General Manager Spector Richardson countered by saying: “Sen. Kennedy would
have wanted us to play.” The game was
played.

Alas, it’s the old story. Professional
baseball players are bound by contract
to play, and if any team refuses to take
the field, that game would be forfeited.
Milt Pappas, Cincinnati pitcher, put it
this way: “Of course we will play rather
than forfeit a game.”

A fourth member of the team, Tim Unaskevitch, was drafted by the New York

Have a problem?

I still remember President Kennedy’s
assassination in November of 1963. It
was the middle of a tight football race.
That Sunday National Football League
Commissioner Pete Rozelle had every
one of the scheduled games played. His
explanation was the same as Richardson’s:
“President Kennedy would have wanted us

Most persons on the Council don’t appear able to see
past the next election. Twice in recent weeks they have
tried to block construction of portable classrooms, ostensibly
because they are “unsafe” or because they “withdraw valuable recreation areas from use,” or because they are “too
cold in the winter.”

But everyone knows the real reason: Portable classrooms provide Buffalo’s first opportunity for true school

integration.
In mid-May the Council passed a resolution calling
for a divisive advisory referendum on the issue. Mayor
Sedita vetoed it. This week, some members tried to pass
a resolution changing the City’s building codes, making the
portable structures illegal.

Decries Harrell issue apathy
To the Editor:

After hearing that Prof. Bill Harrell of the sociology department will not have his contract renewed for next year, I was shocked and disappointed, to say the least. What has happened to
at
the spirit and the voice of concerned students
the State University of Buffalo?
proBill Harrell was one of the best sociology
fessors on campus when I graduated. He forced
the
students to use their intellect and go beyond
course material for answers. If a few administrators
have set up some false standards by which a college professor’s worth is determined (publication,
etc.)

and the students let these standards go un-

challenged, then quite obviously students don’t give
a damn about education.
There is no excuse for apathy, nor is there any
justification for removing a man like Bill Harrell
from his position
Susan Lepard,
Sacramento, Calif.

fl
by J. L. McCrary
When President John F. Kennedy was sniped
down in Dallas in November 1963, people said it
was the work of one fanatic. When Rev. Dr,
Martin Luther King Jr. was shot in Memphis two
months ago, people blamed racist hate, and many
acknowledged that a collective guilt was forming.

Sen. Kennedy’s assassination, apparently at the
hands of a young Jordanian immigrant, has triggered new feelings of anger and guilt. Americans
ask: ‘Are we really a violent people?’
Sen. McCarthy says we are, that we have been
made that way in part by the Vietnam war. Sociologists and psychologists blame the constant diet
of violent movies and television. Television viewers were told by societal critic Eric Severied that
such movies as “Bonnie and Clyde” (though he
didn’t name it outright) blunt our moral sense.

Whatever society’s critics say, it doesn’t make
sense to stop at saying we are a violent society.
The recognition of that fact won’t stop assassinations.
In the same sense, a strict gun control law
probably won’t stop assassinations. There are other

weapons; there are other ways. An assassin is of
one mind. Whether he employs a bomb, a gun
or a poison dart, he can do his deed. The human
body is so vulnerable.
So what’s the answer? Better protection by the
Secret Service? That might stop an assassination,
surely. But President Kennedy was gunned down
in full view of several Secret Service agents.

President Johnson arrives and departs in secreUsually his appearances receive no pre-publicity. It’s true —the President of the United States
cannot move freely in his own country. Gov.
Rockefeller says that when a candidate loses that
right, democracy is in jeopardy.

So are we a sick society, after all?
The answer is yes. We are the kind of sick

South East Asians. We are the sick society that
has allowed segregation, discrimination and continued rape of an entire race of their rights. We
are the sick society that has kicked around, with

New program to aim
at white re-education
Volunteers from the University and the
community are launching a “people
against racism” program.
It’s directed at “white people—their
racism, their prejudices, and their problems of being white,” said William Yates
and William Mayrl, program initiators.
The program will not take the traditional approach of providing white volunteers to work in the ghetto. “We will not
speak as representatives of the black
community,” emphasized Mr. Yates, a
University graduate student, “but address our efforts to white people.”
The group will act as coordinators between the campus and the city. With the
University as the initial base for discussion and action, an “atmosphere of
awareness of the depth and implications
of problems caused by racism can be
created,” Mr. Mayrl said.
The following University programs are
tentatively scheduled for the summer

and income distribution, Mr. Yates believes.
In these campus activities “it is important,” emphasizes Dr. Fred M. Snell, another program organizer, “that we don’t
just talk to each other.” Faculty and students must realize their “role and responsibility in the Buffalo community,”
At the first organizational meeting of
“people against racism” Saturday, Tony
Massa the organizer of a group of about

interested in
studying problems of white racism said:

semester.
The mandatory student activities fee is
proposed at $40 or $42 a year. Athletic
fees will be voluntary at $12.50 a semester. Final decisions on these amounts will
be made by July 1.
The previously voluntary freshman fee
of $4 was made mandatory for all new
students on a motion by Nancy Coleman,
new student affairs coordinator.
A vote on candidates for the Publica-

tions Board resulted in the nomination of
five students. Judy Mann, Charles Zeldner, Margaret Buck, Ira Lee Falk and
Tracy Cottone were approved by a collective vote.
Two additional members were added to
the Student Judiciary. They are Elbert
Hargesheimer III and Neal Slatkin.
Following a motion by Student Association Vice President Tracy Cottone, the
Coordinating Council recognized establishment of a club for African students to be
called the African Club.
Barbara Emilson, student services coordinator, reported that the calendar committee requested that schedules for final
examinations be printed in The Spectrum.
The schedules for first semester would
be printed by Thanksgiving and for second
semester by Easter vacation. The committee also reported that there will be a

mid-year commencement in February, contrary to its original recommendation.

Miss Coleman said that five out of six
Bulletin Board' courses submitted to University College have been approved.
Pamphlets will be mailed to students who
signed-up for the approved courses.
Student Association President Richard
Schwab said that he hopes to make available to every member of the polity a report on what has been accomplished and
an outline of programs for the coming
year.

Mandatory fee for
summer

accepted

Mandatory undergraduate activities fees
of $3.50 ber session during the summer
have been unanimously passed by the
Student Association coordinating council.
Fees will be paid to Sub-Board I, the
financial arm of the five student associations of the University.
Both the Millard Fillmore College and
the Graduate Student Association have also established mandatory summer fees.
Students refusing to pay the mandatory
fees may not be allowed to participate in
student activities, and their grades, transcripts and credits may be withheld. Students with “hardship cases” will be given
special consideration.

Students must go outside the departments to learn what reality is,” said Mr.
Yates. Special courses will be designed

Free discussion

Dialogue in the “intellectual community” will be encouraged. Special teach-ins
and forums will be arranged for students

Mayor Frank A. Sedita; union officials;
representatives from various Negro

Faculty opts for open campus
The faculty senate passed a resolution
May 20 to reopen the campus to military
recruiters after a five-month ban on recruiting.
The resolution, passed by 223-42 vote,
also contained an amendment put forward

pate fully. Dr. Robert H. Rossberg, secretary pro-tern of the faculty senate, said
that by senate bylaws, the meeting had to
be scheduled 14 to 30 days after the April
25 meeting at which the issue was raised.

The conflicting exam and vacation
schedules—of the—various graduate—and

No summer recruitment

No effect

Student Association President Richard
Schwab said that, although attendance of
250 faculty members was complemented
by only a handful of students, a student
opinion poll earlier in the year indicated
that a majority of the student body would
have supported the resolution that was
passed in the faculty senate. Mr. Schwab
personally termed the senate’s decision
“a good thing.”
Dr. Jerome Fink, associate director of
University Placement, said that there will
be no recruitment on campus during the
summer, but that plans have yet to be
formulated for the fall semester.

Professor O’Neil reported that he had
found no evidence that Gen. Hershey’s directive to classify draft protesters had had
any effect on the activities of any draft
boards. The concensus of opinion in the
senate was that if the constitutional right
of students to dissent is impinged upon
in the future, it is almost a certainty that
recruiters will be barred.
There had been some previous speculation that a date had been chosen purposely to decide this issue when exam-bound
students and professors could not partici-

During the demonstration, photographs should be taken of the demonstrators and their conduct, since they may

Record review

Canned Heat: ‘Boogie...’
he sounded a little better than
the great Hendrix.

must admit

by Joseph Fernbacher
Staff

Spectrum

Reporter

"Boogie with Canned Heat

is the tale

of the album and good solid rock is the
type of music inside. This album has all
the ingredients of becoming a number one
seller. It is good soul guitar with great
blues guitar, with good moaning bass and
solid, hard-hitting drum work. Combine
all these ingredients and toss in the rich
heavy voice of the lead singer and you
come up with the group’s name: Canned
Heat,

The group is composed of five hot musicians who play with heat and intensity.
They are: lead singer Bob “The Bear”
Hite; lead guitarist Henry "Sunflower”
Vestine; drummer Adolfo, “Fito” De La
Parra: bassist Larry “The Mole” Taylor,
and Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson, player of
the Bottle Neck guitar, vocalist and harp
player.

This reviewer first heard Canned Heat
when the popular underground radio announcer “Brother Love” began to play
them on his show. The first time I heard
them, I knew I had to get their album.
This I did. So, now I want to share it with
the world. Hence, this review.
The song I heard was the fantastic
“Fried Hockey Boogie.” In this number
Canned Heat did their thing, as the saying
goes. Each individual gives a solo performance on his instrument. It is one of the
best cuts I have ever heard on any record
to date. Of special interest in this cut is
the amazing guitar work of the “Sunflower.” He really lays it on thick and
heavy. His solo reminded me a lot of the
guitar of Jimi Hendrix, and at times, I

All those who attended plays presented
at Buffalo’s Studio Arena Theater this
year and who were impressed by their
quality and variety should note wl

Mole.” He can play the bass guitar with
as much soul as anybody I have ever
heard. He plays in the tradition of Jack
Bruce of Cream and his moaning is truly a
pleasure to experience. “Fried Hockey
Boogie” is one of the best tunes ever to be
pressed into a record.

been lined up for next year.
(Some of the notable plays presented this
year included: Edward Albee’s Box-MaoBox and A Delicate Balance; Pirandello’s
masterpiece ‘The Emperor,” and currently
showing, Ann Jellicoe’s play “The Knack.’’)
Next year, Studio Arena will once again
offer their usual appealing program. As a
pre-season offering the theater has arranged for the two week engagement of
Edward Albee’s experimental company,
1969 Playwright’s Repertory, These plays
will be limited to several performances
each and seats will be at a premium. Tickets go on sale in advance and exclusively
to subscribers.
To begin the season the Studio Arena
will present the comedy, “You’re a Good
Man, Charlie Brown.” Presenting this play
will be the original company and director
Joe Hardy. Other presentations include:
The Lion in Winter, A Thurber Carnival,
The Killing of Sister George, The Entertainer, and Lost in the Stars.
March and April presentations will be
selected from the following plays: Black
Comedy; Arthur Miller’s new play, The
Price; You Know I Can’t Hear You When

“Amphetamine Annie” is the ballad of

a young lady who is in the habit of shoveling great amounts of snow and suffers the
ultimate high in the end. The thing that
makes this cut outstanding, besides the
singing of “The Bear,” is the underlying
guitar work of “Sunflower.” As the album goes on, “Sunflower” gets better and

better.
Boiling over

“Evil Woman” is another heavy tune
full of rich sounding guitar work and singing. This tune is a good example of what
“blue-eyed soul” can really be like.
“On the Road Again’ ’is the modern folk
song set up with an electronic musical
score. Again the “Sunflower” blossoms.
In the instrumental on the album, “Marie Laveau," we are given the quintessence
of Canned Heat. I know it’s repetitious, but
the “Sunflower” is at it again and really
wails in this cut. Also of great quality in
this cut is “The Mole” and his bass work.
This is a true hard rock number full of all
sorts of interesting musical journeys.
Canned Heat is truly boiling over into
the mainstream and should soon be one of
the hottest groups going. They haven’t
been around for an awfully long lime, and
they should stay around a lot longer and
really lay it on the musical millions.

The advantages of becoming a subscriber to Studio Arena are numerous to say
the least. The subscriber enjoys a whopping 15% savings over box office prices
for the eight play series and has his own
permanent seat for performances of his
choice. He may exchange the ticket for
any other performance he wishes within
the four and one half week run of each
play.
Since the beginning of the drive on
March 15 the sales of subscriptions have
totaled 2500 and they are continuing to increase every day. The Studio Arena is one
of Buffalo’s proudest possessions, and

without the support of all Buffalonians, it
will not be able to operate and its fullest
potential will not be reached. The subscription drive will end on June 15.

review

Music of our times
by Sheldon Bergman
Staff Reporter
I've just heard a recording that was
popular 12 years ago.
Spectrum

After the original shock value had subsided, such relatively polished groups as
Dion and the Belmonts and Buddy Holly
and the Crickets pushed the early pio-

sung; the aceontpanists vied instead of
jibed with the singer: the entire production sounded like a first rehearsal instead of the final cutting.
But there was a raw power emanating
from that record—an overwhelming back-

The ultimate softening of the gospel
base came with the emergence of the
Drifters. This Negro group only used a
semblance of “hard rock” in soft ballads.
Yet the “soul sound” was beginning ,vto

unwavering as ever—an amazing display
of the power of an inanimate diety.)
The record jarred when set against the
slick commerciality of today’s recordings.
The manufactured similarity and the lacquered smoothness of the fabricated
sounds of the past few years were missing.
In 1954, Little Richard brought gospel
singing out of the church with “TuttiFrutti” and “Good Golly, Miss Molly.”
It was the birth of the past 14 years’
most popular form of music,
Chuck Berry amplified the baekbeat
with “Roll Over, Beethoven” and “Maybelline.” Bill Haley was one of the first
whites to grasp this music and his combo
enjoyed great success for several years.
But the rawness and natural vitality of
this early “rock-and-roll” was a little too
much of a change to a buying public
weaned on the Ames Brothers and Patti
Page.
As a result, white groups such as the
Crewcuts (“Shh-Boom”) and the Diamonds
(“Little Darlin’ ”) took hits of Negro
groups and modified the songs to make
them palatable to the buying power.

Out of Detroit—Motown— came Smokey
Robinson and the Miracles in 1960.
This sound advanced swiftly, but it
soon had to beat a strategic retreat in the
face of the Beatles invasion. Again, the
public turned to a weakened gospel sound.
Compare the Beatles’ recording of “Roll
Over, Beethoven” with Chuck Berry’s.
There is no question as to which is the
stronger. But as the English surge began
to recede, the soul explosion started to
expand rapidly.
Today, even the Beatles have to acknowledge that we are returning to the
powerful naturalism of the mid-50s (“Lady
Madonna”).
The cycle appears to have finished its
revolution.
Nostalgic listeners
But doesn’t nostalgia have something to
do with this revival of the early rock’n’roll? Atlantic Records alone has produced six records of this genre in the
last four months. The three most popular “rock” stations in Buffalo have all
committed a good deal of time to the
playing of classics.
Audience finally ready
I think that the final factor in this
nascent revival is the sheer force of the
music. The mass public had to be gradually led to the point where it could accept the heavy, raucous beat that the
early groups and singers pounded out.
For the past 15 years it has been underneath every trend in popular music. It
is only now that we are returning to the
beginning because it is only now that we
are becoming able to fully appreciate it.

beat that drove criticism from the mind
and replaced it with a compulsion to
move, jump, bounce, shake, rattle and
roll. Bill Haley had returned. The
Comets were back. And I was again
living in the middle ’50s.
At first I thought it was merely one of
the old hits that WYSL had resurrected
for its “Golden Week.” I was a bit bewildered to discover that it was “a new
release destined for the top ten.” (After
15 years of payola, riggings and exploration, faith in thie totem appears to be as

Television review

McGoohan’s ‘Prisoner’
by Richard Perlmutter
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

It is always an occasion when television
gives birth to anything which is different,
and hence “The Prisoner,” a summer replacement from overseas, is a notable
addition to TV fare. Finally a TV series
is equipped with traces of symbolism and
subtlety.
The story-line is only moderately exciting; a man resigns from a confidential
government post and is kidnapped to a
small village encased by mountains and
sea. Imprisoned by these natural Berlin
Walls and some authoritarian captors, the
man thinks only of escape. Patrick MeGoohan plays the unconvincing stereotyped heroic idealist determined to regain his freedom and retain his individuality.
The other people in the village, presumably there for similar reasons, are all
characterized by striking uniformity. Mannerisms and actions of the villagers are
identical.
People stroll through town in robotlike symmetry. They are known by number only (our helo is number 6) and must
carry numerous ID and credit cards. Here
we have the series’ essential comment on
the individual’s loss of identity to become
a number in a mechanized society.
But the message is conveyed with finesse and subtlety, most unusual foil 'TV

AVt

Big Brothers watch
The village appears to offer everything,
everything but freedom of thought and
action. Big Brothers are everywhere regimenting their brethren. The comparison
with Orwell’s 1984 gtfrs further. Original
thought is taboo as the town is dotted
with such taciturn quotes as “Questions
are a burden to others,” and “A still
tongue makes a happy life.”
The eyes of the leaders are everywhere
peering from statues and monitors guaranteeing that their subjects fit the mold.
The village chiefs even take it upon themselves to keep and write the personal
diaries of the people.
The series is trying to make its viewers
conscious of their loss of significance
and individuality, a necessary consequence
of membership in a mass computerized

In this it is moderately successful but
it remains to be seen whether a TV public

In any case the superb special effects

Baseball Bulls close
with record of 16-4
by Richard Baumgarten
Sports Editor

The 1968 State University of Buffalo
baseball team finished its season in fine
fashion. The “handballers” mowed down
their last four opponents to finish with
a 16-4 record—respectable, but not quite
good enough for a major tournament bid.
Any way you look at it, there can be
no tears for the Bulls. From the first
game to the last, the team provided its
fans with an exciting brand of baseball.
The Bulls’ many highlights ranged from
Ken Rutkowski’s steal of home against
ECTI to upset wins over Colgate and
Rochester. Head Coach Bill Monkarsh had
nothing but praise for his players. “I’m
really proud of this team,” said Monk.
“They hung in there all the way. Many
of our games we fell behind, but we came
back to win.”
Surprising infield
Monk was also pleased with the defensive performance of the infield. Considered to be the sore spot on the ball club,
Monkarsh’s makeshift infield with Jim May
at first, Stan Odachowski at second base,
Fran Buehta at shortstop, and Paul DeRosa manning the “hot spot” at third,
surprised a lot of people. “The infield
got better each game,” said Monkarsh.
“They overcame the large handicap of inexperience.”
But it was the senior

triumvirate of

Brian Hansen, Ken Rutkowski and Rick
Wells which really made the Bulls tick.
Hansen, an All-American catcher from
Detroit, closed out a brilliant collegiate
career, leading the Bulls in batting with a

'

Hansen finishes with .47
.

sizzling .477 average, serving as a pillar
of defense behind the plate. Hansen
should go high in the major league baseball draft next April.
Rutkowski was also an important cog
in Buffalo’s baseball machine. Besides
hitting a healthy .310, “Rutko” was the
‘stopper’ on the Buffalo pitching staff,
racking up a 6-2 record with an incredible
0.38 ERA. Rutkowski pitched the Bulls’
top game of the season on May 3 against
arch-rival Buffalo State, shutting out the
Orangemen 2-0 and striking out 15.
Wells; .417
The third member of the “big three,”
outfielder Rick Wells came through with
his biggest varsity season ever. The senior
from Ithaca ripped the ball at a .417 clip

and belted three homers. Wells’ continual
hustle and heads-up play earned him the
respect of his coach and teammates. Coach
Monkarsh once said of Wells: “He’d go
through a brick wall to catch the ball.
He’s that much of a competitor.”
Losing Hansen, Rutkowski and Wells
via graduation is only part of the rebuilding job facing Coach Monkarsh next season. Senior pitchers Dick Pirozollo, Tim
Uraskevitch and George Hofhedns also
hang up their spikes, as do shortstop
Fran Buehta, utility outfieltders John Grad
and Ken Razka, and second-sacker Whdtey
Hubbard.
What’s the outlook for next season?
“We’re going to need some help in the
outfield,” said Monk. “But our pitching
should be strong, and we have some good
prospects coming up from the freshman
team. We also may get some help from the
junior college ranks.”

Buffalo needs stadium
The National Baseball League did the
City of Buffalo wrong. There will be no
major league baseball here at least for
the immediate future. Nothing can be done
about the National League’s decision—it’s
water over the dam. But what happens to
the domed stadium which the Erie County
Legislature had agreed to build? Will the
city leaders show courage of convictions
and go ahead, or will the proposed dome

become an “almost” stadium.
There’s no question about it. Without a
new stadium, preferably domed, Buffalo
has had it as a big-time sports city. Who
in his right mind could blalme Ralph Wilson, owner of the Buffalo Bills, for pulling

morial Stadium is located in one of the
roughest neighborhoods in town. Throw in
a deplorable parking situation and you’ve
got a strong ease for a new stadium.
If the “wise” civic leaders of this community possessed just one ounce of foresight, Buffalo would have had both a new
stadium and a major league franchise. Instead of building a stadium first like San
Diego and Seattle, and then making their
baseball pitch, the ‘wisemen’ in city hall
voted to add 4500 seats to War Memorial
Stadium at a cost upwards of $1 million.
There is nothing this community can do
about the National League’s decision to bypass Buffalo as an expansion city. What
this community can do is build a sports
complex, and the sooner the better. The
alternative is plain.
If the stadium is not built, you can expect to be reading about either the Seattle
or Montreal Bills. And if you think any of
the present major league franchises would
transfer to a stadiumless Buffalo, don’t
hold your breath waiting.

squad as “good competitors, boys who never gave up, and were always

Sanford has high hopes for the coming
season. He inherits a freshman team that

Without expression, freedom of expression is meaningless

Well, the Faculty Senate went off by itself a few weeks
ago and came out of its meeting sporting a neon-lighted sandwich board that flashes in alternating red and blue lights:
“We support an open campus.”
And that’s nice. The Spectrum supports an open campus, too. WeTe glad—in a way—that military recruiters will
be allowed on campus. We don’t think that anyone should be
barred from speaking at an institution of higher learning, so
long as somebody at that institution wants them there.
And we’re sure that there must be someone in the University community, somewhere, who actually wants recruiters here. The rest of us, then, should accede to those wishes,
and let the military be heard. Yes, even recruit on campus.
We share the fears of President Meyerson, that exclusion
of one group now might lead to exclusion of others in the
future.
But we also know that there are many persons who feel
that the issue of military recruiting for an immoral war deserves special consideration. They believe that the tragedy
of Vietnam overshadows the traditional concept of the open
campus. And they have every right to be heard. They should
have been heard. But they weren’t.
And for that we are very, very sorry.
The Spectrum urged the Faculty Senate May 7 not to
consider lifting its earlier recruiting ban until September.
Until student opinion could be ascertained. Until all sides
could adequately have aired their views. Until a deliberate
and comprehensive review of U.S. policies in Southeast Asia,
Selective Service ravings, and campus-related consequences
could be made.
But instead the Senate cowered away somewhere—when
students were taking exams and were unavailable—and hastily decided to uphold the open campus policy
Congratulations
Now we wonder if the Faculty Senate will wind up counter-reversing itself in September, because there may be hell
to pay when returning students realize what has happened.
And in the long run, this decision may actually alienate some
persons toward the open campus philosophy . . . particularly
when those first few gradaute students get drafted.

Forget it

Erie County has a unique opportunity to save $50
million!
It can forget about building a new stadium.
We’re not weeping over the loss of Buffalo’s bid for a
National League franchise. Not because we don’t want a
major league baseball team in this city. But because at
this point in her history, Buffalo needs much more than a
multi-million dollar investment in mass entertainment.
It is inconceivable to us that the County Legislature
would spend the enormous sum of $50 million for a sports
arena, when the City of Buffalo—core of the county—is
beset by so many problems that just a few million dollars
would go a long way towards remedying.
Montreal, one of the cities included in the NL expansion,
is the proud possessor of a mere $3V2 million stadium.
With Buffalo’s staggering problems—race relations, inadequate school facilities, crime, fire, underpaid employees,
traffic, pollution—even a $3Va million stadium would be too
extravagant an investment.
If the white middle class really must have this ‘toy,’ let’s
refurbish the stadium we’ve got, and thus make a commitment to the urban core.
We don’t need this thing. We hope the County Legislature comes to the same conclusion.

Refractions
by J.L. McCrary
McCrary here. Hot shot silver-throated columnist for The Spectrum summer edition. For the
whole long hot summer I’ll be here, pot-shotting
polished pasteurized politicians, lambasting lilylivered liberals, rousing rackless raging radicals,
cornering confounded cantankerous conservatives,
and axing at all America’s awesome arrogance.

That’s the joy of columnizing. Mixed with that
joy of pot-shotting, lambasting, rousing and cornering is the revolting, though very real, responsibility
to you, my friend, the reader.
What this column intends to do is, by one means
or the next, portray this campus, this city, the
nation, the world, the universe in simplified terms.
What will happen is this: We’ll take a complex
problem like France. And Big DeG. Now most
know that France is undergoing its most trying
days since Doug MacArthur lafayetted himself back

Java for graduation?!
To the Editor:

My parents came all the way from New York
City to watch my graduation. I knew that nobody
would get much personal recognition from the
proceedings. The State University of Buffalo is
a big school, after all, and very diverse.
What troubles me is that such a fine institution
couldn’t come up with a better speaker. People
like Walter Cronkite, Kingfish Brewster and even
LBJ are speaking at colleges not too far from here.
So what do we get? Some lady Regent relating

her travels in Java!!
I guess I shouldn’t have expected much. Four
years at Buffalo with all her crowded classrooms
and dorms has taught me not to expect much.
But next year, not for me, but for a friend, let’s
get someone good, like President Wallace.

into that noble land. Trouble is, few know what
the real story is. France is just plain revolting

Samuel P. ’68

to some.
A confusing situation like France can be scaled
simplified into something very less
complex. Like Columbia, gem of a university,
with its clawed and kirking students.

down and

together the threads of the argument. Call French students Columbia students,
seizing, barracading, struggling individuals attempting to initiate changes. Call DeG Kirk. Call the
Gym Gold. Paint the walls. Call striking faculty
members confused unemployed factory workers.
Deck the halls. See how easy it is?
Let us tie

Now we have France distilled and boiled down
into Columbia and Columbia stinking with rotting
eggs and France stinking with garbage in the
streets which, if you remember, was the result
of the Garbage Strike in New York.

So boil the eggs and boil the garbage and you
will find as the end product the sickening slush,
the basic substance, the ultimate mass, that all
men call the world.

It must be understood hereonin, trusty reader,
that JX. McCrary is no advocate of simplification.
The technique, the methodology of it, was not
developed in a day, however, and it is with real
purpose that it is done. In some words, it’s this:
The ramifications of the simplification of a given
situation are of such a nature that the reader
can begin to know bis world. And that’s important;
especially important in this post cold guerrilla
nuclear war age.

In the weeks ahead, we’ll simplify national
politics, the international gold situation, the balance of payments debacle, the new left, the old
right, the Poor People, the filthy rich. And near
the end we’ll take a close look at the press—in
Buffalo and in the nation.
Hoping, fjriends, that it will be as enjoyable
a summer as the Queen City can afford; and not
the one that, because of indifference or inaction,

Buffalo burns.

UB: ‘horrible’ for summer
To the Editor:
This is a perfectly horrible place to be stuck
for the summer!
I’m a commuter. But if I lived on campus, I
think I’d croak-out over the summer.
Norton Hall isn’t open on Sunday, nor very late
any other time. It should be opened around the
clock, not closed at 4:30 p.m. Saturdays.
The bookstore isn’t open very much. Ugly.
What are resident students without automobiles
to do?
Going crazy,

Mark Y.

Good luck, draft dodger!
To the Editor;
Four photos on the front page of The SP ec‘
trum supposedly displayed futile attempts to burn
an induction notice by Mr. Bruce Beyer. Casual observation reveals Mr. Beyer puffing on a cigarette
not
in two of the photos. Mr. Beyer evidently did
have the persence of mind to use the burning butt
dangling from his mouth. As such, he probably
tn
would be of little value in a situation wherein
exercise of common sense might mean life or deai
aI would like to wish Mr. Beyer success in his
tempts to evade the service. There are two reasoi
for this desire:

1—The

without him.

2—1 graduated this May and face induction

A special University convocation of all students, undergraduate and graduate, and faculty will be held this afternoon at 3 p.m. in the Millard Fillmore Room.
The purpose of the meeting, called by The Student As-

uate School, will be to discuss and help formulate University
policy in regards to a recent disclosure that it may be possible
for some graduate students to receive occupational deferments.
The state-level advisory committee to the Selective Service
System suggested in a meeting
Saturday to State University of
Buffalo representatives the “possibility” that some graduate students who engage in “full-time
teaching” may be granted occupational deferments (II-A) under
the Selective Service System.

SSS procedure

Under the suggested plan the
student and the University would
notify local draft boards (in whatever state) of their intention to
request II-A classification, or in
the case of students already engaged in their duties, would request reclassification to II-A.
At the initial contact, a request
would be made that the local
board seek advice from the “Advisory Committee on Scientific,
Engineering, Agricultural, and
Specialized Personnel” (this body
advises the State Office of the
Selective Service System in Albany) regardless of where in the
U.S. the local board might be.
Should the H-A classification be
denied, the student and the university (if the university had already joined in the initial request) would then appeal the
classification, while at the same
time requesting a change of jurisdiction to the New York State
appeal board.
The local board must grant
such a change of jurisdiction.
Then the New York State SSS
would make a final decision.

Referendum

There is a standard form to fill
out, each entry having a certain
“unit value.” Most of our present TAs would, probably, score 32
units at most; SSS representatives
have indicated, off the record,
that 25 units has been suggested
as a guideline, but there is no
guarantee that such a guideline
would be maintained, or that our
TAs would actually be allowed
the 32 units claimed.
Today’s meeting has been called
“urgent” because of'the need for
the University to make a decision on the matter before June
1, when the reclassification be-

have informally offered several
contradictory guidelines and
formulas: (1) whatever load a faculty member ordinarily carries;
(2) whatever the university can
mester; (4) a person cannot be a
full-time teacher and at the same
time carry a substantial program
of study.
“To add to the confusion, it has
also been stated informally that
teaching required of the graduate student as part of his degree
program cannot be grounds for
occupational deferment.”
University policy says that al-

most all graduate students must

do some teaching as a part of the

Ph.D, requirements.

Assistantships

Albany's reaction

Protesters may be denied state aid
by Peter Simon
Assistant

City Editor

The recent events at Columbia University
ALBANY
have set off a reaction in the legislative halls of Albany.
A bill has been introduced in the State Senate which
would deny state financial assistance to any student who
violates the law while participating in a campus demonstration.
Senate Majority Leader Earl W. Brydges, a Niagara
Falls Republican who originated the bill, made it clear that
it is largely a response to the Columbia demonstrations.

misdemeanors, including trespass,

Grayson Kirk.

The minimum rents vary from

who wished to remain anonymous,

Of those replying, 47% said
they have had pre-marital sex. It
was also found that only 12% had
used no type of contraceptive.
Among those students who took
precautionary measures, “the pill”
was labeled the most effective.
It must be taken into consideration that the study was done at
random, and that the response
was probably too small to be
called definitely indicative of the

Learn from friends
The need for greater sex education was demonstrated by the
fact that 60% of the students
stated their best source of knowledge on sex was their friends.
The reaction of the health service, however, has not been encouraging to the survey’s sponsors. “Dr. Hoffman realizes there
is a problem,” said Miss Zinsley,

Although 68.6% of the students
who responded desired contraceptive dispersal, only 37% wanted a family living course.
Probably no definite action will
take place as a result of this
survey. Miss Zinsley, who is graduating, said that all she could do
was “leave the information behind for other students to carry
on.”
This University was one of 200
schools to conduct a recent survey on these topics. However,
95% of the schools put a restriction on which students could answer questions—girls had to be
either married or over 21.
Besides the above totals and
percentages some questions were
correlated along certain divisional
lines for additional information.
For instance it was found that
the percentage of male students
engaging in permarital intercourse rise from 50% in the freshman year to 65.4% by the time
they are seniors. For female students the percentage is 24%&gt; having premarital intercourse in
their freshman year with an increase to 59.6% in their senior

When the State legislature approved the $50 million budget in
March, the University found itself almost $600,000 short. Dr.
Regan said the “significant cut”
came through an increase in the
savings factor, an amount one
assumes will not be spent when

planning a budget.
The legislature assumed the
University would have fewer
graduate students this year, he
said. ‘Actually we’ve received
2000 more applicants.”
“But the game isn’t over yet,”
Dr. Regan continued. Both President Martin Meyerson and Chancellor Samuel Gould will “fight
tooth and nail with the legislature” to have the cut restored.
“We must convince the Gov-

ernor’s office that the Univer-

sity must expand by 50% in the

the University” must be continued, Dr. Regan advised. In the
planning for the new Amherst
campus, initial increases in faculty and academic programs
must ‘'precede increases in space
and enrollment.”

If both Mr. Meyerson and Dr.
Gould fail to convince the legislature of the University’s view,
Dr. Regan predicted that serious
“belt-tightening” will have to begin. Over the summer months,
economizing would take place in
certain areas as secretatarial
pools and central duplicating service areas.
A bulk of the $600,000 cut was
budgeted for new programs and
continued staffing in departments. Ecnomy measures may
cause a two to three month delay
in such programs as the School of
Architecture and Design, the Immunology Center, the Policy Sciences doctorate program and the
undergraduate program in Amercan studies.
The library, which will “suffer”
more than any individual area,
will be cut in acquisitions of new
books, Dr. Regan said.

Community committee

Mr. Austin said: “This commit-

tee should start not as a University committee, but as a community committee making use of the
expertise of the State University

of Buffalo. The committee should
attempt to alleviate the problems
with feasible beneficial programs
for the community. It should have
the full support; of the University
and the community in the implementation of these programs.”
He also feels that the University can not be the center; that
it can “help, but can not lead or
direct or dictate.” Believing that
the University should have a
strong supporting role, he said
that the ghetto can not be offered a program if there is no
one from the ghetto on the committee. He indicated that it should
be dominated by Negroes if it is
for their benefit.
One of the programs in which
Mr. Austin is interested calls for
an increase in the number of
black students and black faculty
on campus. He also is concerned
with establishing courses that are
relevant to a black person.
Mr. Austin believes that the

In addition, he remarked that
the main thing is to “try to eliminate the black stereotype that
pervades the white mind on this
campus. The white student should
be exposed to the ups and downs
of Negro history and the role
played by the white in that his-

tory.”
When asked what would happen eventually, Mr .Austin replied: “The University can't work
on the premise of eventuality.
Eventually doesn’t leave much
hope for anybody. The University
should start making guarantees.”
It should be guaranteed “that

WASHINGTON—Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield says
Johnson and his top peace advisers be given “as much leeway as possible” in the upcoming talks with North Vietnam in Paris.

He specifically rejected suggestions that he lead a congressional
delegation to the talks due to begin this Friday.
“We should give the administration as much leeway as possible,”
Mansfield said in an interview Sunday. “These talks are not going to
be easy.”

Table it
The discussion in next week’s scheduled Faculty Sen-

ate meeting will begin by opening debate on a crucial amendment to the proposed resolution, calling for the delay of a
decision concerning military recruiters until “total student
opinion is ascertained.”
Passage of the amendment is an absolute prerequisite
to a decision on the larger question of military recruitment.

However, it is readily apparent that it will be impossible to
adequately ascertain the “total student opinion . . . pursuant to the expressed wishes of recognized student organizations” at such a late date in the school year.

We therefore urge the Faculty Senate to pass the amend-

ment and appropriately table the entire question until
September.

How to combat the SSS
In several respects today’s special University convocation
is the most important single event of the year.
The decision reached at the “town meeting” this afternoon will be at least extremely influential in guiding the policies of this University in regards to its compliance or noncompliance with the Selective Service Bureau.
Because today’s discussions may well determine the fate
of this University, and more importantly of every student at
this University, we urge all students and faculty to cancel all
meetings and classes and meet in the Fillmore Room at 3 p.m.
Some important questions will have to be discussed, concerning the position the University should take in response to
the Selective Service System’s halt-hearted and ill-disguised
attempt to co-opt and appease a threatened educational systm, as well as the more important larger role the University
may take in defining its stance against its real threat—the
War.
Should the University request occupational deferments
for teaching and research assistants?
Should departments assign teaching positions to all those
most vulnerable?

Should the University increase teaching duties of grad-

uate students to meet more certainly the vagueness of the

criterion of “full-time”?

Should the policy be one of entirely local option for de-

partments and programs to take those steps that lead to
maximum possible II-A deferments?

Full compliance with the SSS proposal would probably result in some deferments. Probably most non-TAs
would be classified I-A and perhaps some TAs as well. The
University would find itself sometimes “granting” deferments when it granted TAs and “guaranteeing” induction
when it turned down candidates for TAs.
•

•

The various alternatives of non-cooperation would

turn the selection problem back to the SSS.

A blanket refusal to supply any statement would probably result in a higher proportion of non-science TAs,
though much reclassification would probably be on a random basis.
A position like that taken by Harvard would probably result in a variety of classifications according to the statements
made by individual departments and faculty, with a result
being very similar to that of full-cooperation.
Another alternative is the tactic of sending uniform
“John Doe” letters to the draft boards of all draftable students, outlining in detailed rhetoric the role of every graduate student in the University, while providing no detailed
information. The local boards might grant some deferments,
though it is likely that at the appeal level such statements
would not carry much weight. And, while it is possible that
this tactic could result in more refusals to defer than that of
full cooperation, it might also slow and complicate the decisions of SSS, and would constitute a kind of non-cooperation
difficult for the SSS to combat.
Because of the necessity to combat the real causes of the
situation we strongly urge that participants at today’s meeting adopt a resolution calling for the University to refuse to
cooperate with the Selective Service System in its choice of
graduate students, and provide no information to them concerning graduate students, other than a uniform assertion of
their teaching and research role in the University.

"Student been giving you some heat again?"

Readers

The Sham

writings

by Martin Guggenheim

There are a number of thoughts in my mind
as I begin the process of thinking about and writing
my last column. The most natural thing to do is
remember many of the columns of the past year.
When you write a column which has as its aim
to change things, you must also evaluate your
column accordingly. In the American way of evaluating success, the proper thing to do is count
the credits and debits and decide accordingly.
It occurs to me, however, that since September
this country has gone from a terrible place to
almost an uninhabitable place. I’d prefer not to
use change as my criteria for judgment. In September, my friends still talked about reform; by midyear, they talked about revolution; now nothing
seems to be worth the effort.

I will be able to rationalize the value in this
column by simply arguing that I’ve made some people conscious of what is happening and I’ve made
other people angry.
Things continue to disturb me, however. There
were a number of problems I mentioned on this
campus which not only were not changed, but
were not even defended.
The one conclusion most people seem to reach
these days is that a lot of things need to be changed;
the hassle begins when we discuss how? and, to
what? Precisely what we should change to is still
a mystery, but there are a few conclusions I have
come to after this year, in the area of how.
If charity begins in the home, then life begins
there, too. Many millions of things need to be
changed in, say, this country. But most of those
things exist as they do because of our over all
system or, really, philosophy. It does not make
sense to condemn others, or to try to get others to
change what they are doing, when we are committing the same wrongs ourselves. This does hot
but rather
mean that we should do nothing
that we should first change our own faults.
The faculty on this campus is particularly guilty
of what 1 am talking about. Parents are often guilty
of this same thing. It we are ever to experience a
revolution that will work, it will have to come from
within. It is difficult, not to mention deceitful, to
chastise others for only doing what we do. Psychologists have recognized man’s need to do this
and call it projection. We often hate others because they force us to see ourselves. Perhaps the
only reason we don’t wage war on Vietnam is because we have no power to do so. Perhaps the
only reason we don’t murder others is because we
can’t get away with it.
It is not meaningful to condemn our national
policies when we don’t try to change our own
lives. If we don’t live beautiful lives, if we don’t
strive to become beautiful people, there will be no
revolution. But it is much easier to talk than to
act. And very few people are willing to admit their
own faults. This was probably my greatest fault
this year
but if there is any knowledge to be
gained at all in this institution, I have learned that.
We should never forget what it means to be black
in this country. We should never forget what it
means to be yellow or red either. I am not suggesting that all is suddenly well. If there was a quick
solution to any of these problems this column
would not be written today. But there is not.
Given this, the method we choose to revolt is as
important as the goals we seek. We need a revolution. When the guns are fired this summer by our
black brothers, where will we white liberals be?
Many of us will be drafted this summer; if we
go to War we will be murderers, I say that unequivocally. If we do not individually decide
whether or not to murder, we are nothing.

Call him irresponsible
To the Editor:
Military recruitment should be suspended on
this campus until General Hershey rescinds his
directive that protesters of the war and the draft
be reclassified 1-A.
Some members of the Executive Committee of
the Faculty Senate and some speakers at the Senate
Meeting of 25 April seemed mollified that no certain evidence exists that any young man is actually,
at present, reclassified as a result of exercising his
civil liberties. President Meyerson suggested that
it would be irresponsible to suspend military recruitment on this campus unless firm evidence of
such an infringement of civil liberties develops, especially in view of the ACLU position that recruitment on campus must either be open to all organizations or closed to all.

But General Hershey has been irresponsible.
And President Johnson has been irresponsible for
condoning Hershey’s actions by keeping him in office. More important, there can be no doubt whatsoever that the threat of reclassification will continue to hang over the bared necks of militant protesters until the Hershey directive is cancelled.
The mere presence of such an intolerable threat
constitutes so grave a breach in the bulwark of civil
liberties that I, for one, will vote to suspend military
recruitment at the next meeting of the Senate. I
do not believe that for the Senate to ban military
recruitment on this campus will violate the principles of academic freedom to anywhere near the
extent that Hershey’s maling directive does. The
Senate must weigh the loss of liberty in each case—and choose.

University is sincerely concerned with the welfare
and happiness of its students, once again it has

freshmen who aren’t yet here.
Overcrowding and lack of consideration for its
students is no way for a University to build a re-

who has allowed me to usurp the spot he generally
fills on Tuesdays.
It is difficult to find the words capable of adequately describing the very mixed emotions I have
as I sit to the task of writing this column. It is the
last one. And after three years one would miss
anything, good, bad, or indifferent. (Which I suppose is the one hope I have of my absence being
noted next year.)
I have frequently muttered in my beard about
how hard it is to write on a weekly basis. I have
also frequently muttered about the problem of
having too much to say. In all honesty, therefore,
I am forced to conclude that if I did that much
bitching about it and still came back for more, I
must have enjoyed it. Which may be fallacious but
makes me feel better.
Even if I did not enjoy it, which question I
will answer after a decent interval of not doing it,
it was most therapeutic. It has given me a chance
to snarl in public instead of in private, to snarl at
volunteers instead of those hapless acquaintances
who happened across my path when I was wrathful
at some sort of silly stupidity or another. I was
able to displace my wrath among many without
bothering anyone, i.e., I am unable to think of a
single thing which this column “accomplished” in
its history.
There are no Steese memorial libraries, fountains, hanging gardens, postal pagodas or crabapple
trees. And to be perfectly honest, somehow I really
never thought there would be. What then did this
column accomplish in its murky and fogbound
past? (It being after all a principle of this culture
that one has to accomplish something before one
has done anything—that is one of the most beautifully enigmatic statements that I have ever had the
pleasure to write.)
Way back in the mists of time when I started
this thing I had this idea that a great many students
on this,,as on every campus, had been locked into
a box by the society we live in. They had been
taught that there were things to say, and they said
them; they had been taught the right things to do,
and they did them, and so forth ad nauseum, BUT
some of these people knew that something was
wrong. They did what they were supposed to do,
but back in some dark little corner something kept
muttering: “Something is drastically wrong” everytime they examined the world around them.
I felt then that society manages to control such
peonle best bv instilling a great fear of being notnormal, of being (horrors!) different, even in those
peopie wno are different. The result being an unwillingness to expose yourself as being different in
any way that matters.
At present I see no great reasons for changing
any of the above. It is quite apparent if you look
around you that almost everybody still has the
fear of being different. If you want to be different,
you have to join a sub-group which specializes in a
specific difference so that you have company. In
a world which is full of a number of fascinating
activities and people, this, to me, is senseless.
I strongly suspect that because I can see the
questionableness of this situation, other people
should be able to also. Further I would suspect
that while many activists may understand what I am
talking about, it is not to them that this is directed.
They have found a god in whose name to post banners and exalt the multitudes to causes.
The people I am specifically trying to reach are
standing back there in the shadows watching from
where it is safe. Which is the wisest place to be
when people who KNOW what is RIGHT are clashing. They look perfectly normal, they act perfectly
normal, but as noted before they have this strange
idea that this is not the world they were told about
in Sunday School, or wherever moral ideologies
were handed out. (Watch it, there might be one
sitting next to you now!)
The little man with the big computer who sits
and programs the limits of “normality,” the outermost bounds of what is permitted in polite society,
has the good sense to fear these people. The harsh
repressive measures taken by most parents against
any sign of social deviation in their offspring is
quite understandable. Formidable as they may seem
in many instances, Black Power, Student Power, and
damned near every other power and ideology we
have pales sharply before the concept of a society
in which the thing to be valued is the individual,
where what is to be enjoyed are the combinations
of different perspectives, where the gravest crime
is the effort to control another human being who
in no \yay is menacing anyone else in a search for
himself.
So much of dreaming. I will not force more
upon you. Practically I would make a suggestion.
Stick your neck out. Take a human being to lunch

servations.

Granted, the Continued Treatment Service is
housed in an “antiquated” building; granted, there
are 1500 mentally ill men and women in this structure; granted, the hospital staff is a “skeleton” one,
and granted, the patients do receive tranquilizers,
do have access to TV sets, do have opportunities for
unit meetings, and do have limited contact with
“outside agitating influences.”
However, I wish to put further emphasis on a
point made by Dr. Murray, that is: facilities and
staff are available only to the extent that the state
has provided funds for them.
Bearing this reality factor in mind, I would
suggest to Dr. Murray that if he wishes to marshal
an army of volunteers, he should do so and then
march against public enemy number one—ignorance! Hopefully, a fight against the public’s ignorance and misconceptions regarding mental illness would result in the development of an actionoriented society which would demand that the
state provide opportunities for state hospitals to

develop as therapeutic centers.
As one of many graduate students in the Psychiatric Nursing Program who spends a great deal
of time at the Buffalo State Hospital, I have seen
numerous and encouraging trends. In direct oppositlbn to Dr. Murray’s statement that the existing
staff is unable to provide a therapeutic milieu, I
wish to call attention to the fact that recently two
workshops have been conducted with an emphasis
having been placed on preparing the registered

of these same faculty continue to be resource agents

and consultants for the hospital.

The building housing the Continued Treatment
Service is slated for some significant renovations in
the very near future. Also, credit seems to be due
to the personnel who, in spite of the deficiencies in
facilities, are able to provide care for the patients.
They would be the first to acknowledge that given
nurse personnel and improved facilities, they could
provide even better care. Things are changing and
will continue to do so, but the invasion of Dr. Murray’s suggested army could be a truly devastating
attack if it were not preceded by some diplomatic
and thoughtful maneuvers.
Finally, I cannot help speculating about Dr.
Murray's comment concerning a rekindling of the
patient’s desire to leave the hospital. I find myself
asking the question of whether or not the society
which in part contributed to the development of
these patients’ illnesses is ready to accept them
back? And, if they can’t accept them back at this
time, is that “antiquated building” at Buffalo State
Hospital such a dreadful place? After all, the society which exists in that structure will not easily
point an accusing finger, tack on a label of “crazy,”
or ostracize a member who is unable to control his
hallucinatory and acting-out behavior.
I say “Hurrah!” for Dr. Murray’s concern and
anger about this situation, but I say let’s get the
public to beat the drum that counts
the one that
can be heard in Albany!

Misconception of military professionalism
To the Editor;

This is in response to a letter written by Mr.
Louis Schwartz concerning the “danger” of a professional military service, which appeared in the
April 30th edition of The Spectrum.
Mr. Schwartz bases his argument on a complete
misconception of military professionalism. It has
been recognized by Western military writers, at
least since the Napoleonic era, that war is not an
end in itself, but merely one tool of policy. It has
further been generally recognized that the duty of
the military professional is, at the highest level, to
advise the government leaders of potential military
threats to, and the military capabilities of the state.
Policy, as regards to size of the military forces, that
is the amount of national resources alloted national defense and their employment, how and where
such forces shall be used, is left up to the civil
leader. To use Mr. Schwartz’s example, when MacArthur disobeyed orders given by the President, he
was behaving in a highly unprofessional manner,
for he was trying to influence policy after it had

been made.
As for Mr. Schwartz’s contention that it is the
enlisted men, “civilians looking forward to a civilion world,” which I suppose means draftees, who
have kept the officers in check, I can only suggest
that he examine the facts. A form of conscription
was first introduced in this nation in 1863 and was
in effect tor only two years. A Selective Service

system was re-introduced in 1917, abolished after
the First World War, re-established in 1940 and
has been used to a greater or lesser degree since
then. For most of the years since 1789, the United
States has operated with a volunteer, at least semiprofessional military force, fighting three wars and
one prolonged military operation in the process.
One may also point to the examples of Great Britain, which used conscription only during the World
Wars but has never had a coup threatened by her
military; and France, which suffered a military coup
in 1958 when her army was primarily composed of
conscripted enlisted personnel, to further show the
irrelevence of this factor in civil-military relations.
Finally there is Mr. Schwartz's statement: “The
draftee is dying as he guards the base where the
professional lives and doesn’t pay taxes." A statement, like most of Mr. Schwart’s letter, based more
on anti-military and anti-Vietnamese War dogma
and prejudice than on fact. The very organization
of the Army or Marines (almost entirely volunteers
anyway) means that command and leadership in battle comes from N.C.O.’s, the professional core of
any military force, and junior officers who, under
present circumstances, also tend to be professionals,
either from West Point or O.C.S, If Mr. Schwartz
would trouble to read some professional military
literature he would learn just how involved in
fighting and dying the professionals are in Vietnam.
Edward J. Hynes

Significance of wall posters is unclear
To the Editor

It seems that the Student Strike Committee has
managed to draw scorn and abuse from the entire
apolitical spectrum of this campus. From the elite
left to the rowdy "yahoos,” all have managed to
find something offensive to their sensibilities in
the wall posters. Our position, that this campus, far
from being an “open one” in which the pursuit of
learning goes on unencumbered by vested interests,
was very intelligently refuted by the “yahoo" element in ther recent position paper circulated around
the campus Friday—“If your heart ain’t in America,
you had better get your ass out.” The circulation of
such an assinine statement is its own sufficient reply; I will ignore the “yahoos.”
But there is the more serious criticism of the
“in-betweeners,” sometimes known as liberals or
moderates, and in some circles known as the “donothings,” a characteristic which seems to intensify
in direct proportion to their assumption that they
know “everything." These modern sophists, those
who can find the exception to the rule and thus
satisfy themselves that the rule is refuted, have
claimed either “so-what” or "we know that—so
what,” or “that’s true, but it’s one of a seemingly
infinite number of factors,” etc., etc., (you know the
liberal rhetoric!)
What they have pointed out is that our posters
don’t prove anything. And perhaps this is true. Per-

haps we greatly overestimated the political consciousness of the people on this campus. We assumed that the long list of corporate and financial

connections of the administrators of this campus
would serve to underline the argument of the Left
that the University is not an open campus, that .indeed this is a myth which covers the reality of our
everyday life and the true function of the University in this society—to provide the spare parts for
the social machine—that machine which is being
controlled precisely by those men that control the
University—in effect it is the corporate leaders that
run the University and it is the corporate structure
that the Univesity serves.
So then, the “so-what” criticism is accurate, but
for the wrong reasons. It’s not that what we have
said is not true, nor that what we have said is not
in its truthfulness lacking significance. It’s just that
we have failed to make this significance clear. So
the posters will continue to appear, but the content
will change. We will try to make the relation between “fact” and “significance” more intelligible.
I would say that the ultimate significance of
these facts manifests itself in poverty, the ghetto,
the barbarious war in Vietnam, and the continuing
misery and despair of two-thirds of the world’s
population, who do not have the fortunate luxury
to have their sensibilities offended by mere words,
but rather by misery, oppression, and death.
Alexander Delfini

A vote for activities
fate of student activities on this campus next year. The
referendum is being held to poll student opinion on the
issue of mandatory fees.
Experience this past year has shown rather conclusively
that the voluntary fee structure will not support a fullblown schedule of student activities. Virtually every club
and organization suffered budget cuts, and several programs never got off the ground.
Listing the numerous and various programs that are
financed by student fees will not suffice to convey the need
for the mandatory fee. It is only when these programs are
gone that students become fully aware of what their fees
provide.
The State directive last year that ended mandatory
fees was unquestionably a grave error. Reversal of that
directive now indicates that, after a year of observation,
State University officials also believe that the mandatory
fee snould be reinstated.
Tomorrow’s referendum is in two parts: One pertaining to student activities and the other considering the athletic fee. We are certain that nearly every student benefits
from the activities fee, and there is no doubt that students,
and students alone, determine how the activity fee is to
be allocated. The athletic fee, of course, is a different
question.
We urge students to vote for the mandatory student
activities fee primarily because the activities that they support are a very worthwhile, and a very important part of
university life. Don’t destroy those activities with a negative
vote. Vote, instead, to help those activities grow and flourish.

Inextricably bound
This edition is the last of the 1967-1968 Spectrum.
Throughout the academic year, we have tried to discuss
some of the more important issues facing the nation and
the campus.
One point we have tried to make repeatedly, although
subtly, is that the nation and the campus are inextricably
bound to one another. Students cannot escape from a world
of realities by getting lost among walls of ivy. Nor can the
non-academic community refuse to recognize the role of the
university.
In the past two or three years, students have begun to
not on the food in their
speak out and speak out loudly
but on the very
cafeterias or the price of their books
issues that confront all human beings. That is the right of
students; in many ways, it is also their duty.
But the question now is: Can the university survive,
and can it continue to grow as an influential voice in the
affairs of men and nations?
The course is by no means certain, but the prospects
are by no means dim.
This newspaper, like the University it serves, has sought
controversy. But controversy for the sake of controversy is
worthless. On the other hand, controversy tempered with
responsibility and purpose is a wiser approach.
The university is only one segment of an extremely
large, complex society. But the impact that the university
can make on that society can be great. Those who leave the
campus this year should remember the role of the university and never look askance at its undertakings. Those who
will return next year should remember it is their obligation
to assure the continued growth, the continued vitality and
the continued sense of purpose and direction that has made
the university more than an institution of higher education.

In September, we will inaugurate a program of
Freshman Seminars. A large part of the entering
freshman class will have the chance to work closely with a professor in the intellectual intimacy of
seminar dialogues, with no more than 20 other
students. By the fall of 1969, every freshman who
wishes to participate in such a learning experience
should have the chance to do so.
By next fall, I hope the Faculty Senate will have
made major reforms of our grading system, stimulated by the work of the faculty and students on
the Ad Hoc Committee on Grading and Ranking
established a year ago. In addition, there should
by next year be an opportunity for honors work
and independent study in every undergraduate
program within the University.
The reorganization of the University into seven
faculties has already produced important new educational dimensions and directions. Among the
highest priorities for the coming year is the development of cross-disciplinary work—for example,
through the new programs in American studies and
the policy sciences. With the opportunity for further planning and formulation which next year
will afford, there should be other stimulating new
progams and a series of general education options
ready for September 1969.
The academic year 1969-70 should also inaugurate major calendar reforms which will provide
greater flexibility for students and faculty—for
example, through options of a reduced course load,
the relaxation of heretofore rigid prerequisites,
and by facilitating year-round study for those who
wish it.

New campus

1968 is out, ground will be broken for
the University’s new campus. The new facilities
will make possible the integration of the seven
faculties, and the intermingling of the Faculties
and the Colleges, Until these facilities are ready
for occupancy, we must bear as best we can with
the terrible crowding of our presently overtaxed
facilities—in the residence halls, the classrooms,
Norton Hall, our laboratories and office space.
I can only regret the conditions that exist, and
ask your forbearance during the months ahead.
For most graduate and professional students,
the educational progress and the new options
within the University have been overshadowed
by the imminence of a threat from without the
institution—the draft of graduate students. We
have joined with representatives of many other
universities and professional societies to urge a
more equitable application of the selective service
laws. We are making whatever efforts are within
our power to bring about a change of policy or
practice in this areas. Yet we recognize that as
long as the unfortunate war in Vietnam continues,
the universities will continue to suffer in many
Before

ways.

In addition to these specific areas of concern,
there are two general subjects to which I should
like to focus the attention of the University community: student participation in the affairs of the
University, and University participation in the
affairs of the community.

Student involvement
During the past year, there has been substantially greater student involvement in University affairs
than ever before. Students have attended recent
meetings of the Faculty Senate. Various departings,

and

have

involved

students

in

central

as-

peets of departmental planning, on curricular and
other issues. Students have played a major role
on the University College Curriculum Committee;
and the adoption of the Bulletin Board as a way
of developing new courses- at the initiative of
teachers and students, together with the Student
Course on Teacher Evaluation, have provided new
opportunities for student participation in curricular
reform and revision. Student membership on presidential committees, and student representation on
the Cabinet, have made major contributions to the
work of these groups.
But 1 consider these avenues of student involvement only a modest beginning. In the fall term,
I hope that every one of our Faculties and academic
units will have formulated plans with students for
more extensive student participation in educational
affairs. There are certain actions in which students could not meaningfully or appropriately take
part, or would not wish to be involved. But there
is vastly piore that we can do to enhance the contribution and the relevance of that group within
our community who should, after all, be as much
concerned as any other group with the academic
direction of the institution.
Nor should this contribution be confined to
purely educatioanl affairs. For example, I expect
we can add new channels for student involvement
in the planning of our new campus facilities.
During the months ahead, I urge students and
their organizations to focus critically upon the
challenge of meaningful student participation. In
the fall, we should examine the proposals that have
been developed. If we mean what we say—if we
are truly a community of scholars sharing a cooperative mission—then we should act upon and
implement the most effective proposals.

Involvement in the community

The other matter which should be at the top

of our University agenda between now and the fall
is that of student participation in the community.

With the creation of the Select Committee for
Equal Opportunity, and the University Office for
Equal Opportunity, we are expanding our involvement in the problems of the disadvantaged and minority groups. I expect that Committee will shortly
have a number of specific proposals we can begin
to implement—in the areas of employment, opportunities for minority group students, and other aspects of our relations with both the white and
non-white communities.
On the campus this summer, there will be various activities designed to bring minority group
members to our University, many perhaps for the
first time. I urge those students who will be in
Buffalo during the summer to come to the campus
when and as they can to participate in these programs which will be coordinated (through the
Office for Equal Opportunity. For those students who
will be away from Buffalo during the
summer, I
would urge every effort to identify, and become
involved in, whatever comparable opportunities
exist there—whether through tutoring of disadvantaged students, work on recreational programs
or other community action efforts. Not only
will
such work be individually satisfying; not only will
it make a tangible contribution to bridging
the
tragic gap that exists between the advantaged and
the deprived; in addition, such experience will
provide a resource upon which we can build
more
relevant programs.

Mr. Doe’s situation are not able
to continue their work, a large
proportion of both undergraduate

much higher percentage of all instruction in required courses.
Thus the loss of only a few
such teachers would result in the
necessary cancellation of a simi-

would also seriously hamper the
important research work carried
on by faculty and graduate students in various team and cooperative laboratory arrangements.

Decisions

“University administrators who
decided on teaching asslstantship
applications and awards may be
put in the position of making decisions that affect the draft status
of their studetns if the University complies with the new SSS
policies, unclear as they are.
“On the other hand, the University has already been indirectly involved in such decisions,
since until now mere acceptance
as a graduate student guaranteed
H-S deferment.
“It is possible that some Buffalo
graduate students who are eligible for the draft might be deferred on occupational grounds.
It is certain that not all will be
deferred.
“If departments attempted to
shift vulnerable graduate students
to TA positions, not all could be
protected, and it is also likely
that some of these ‘protected’
would be drafted anyway.
“At present about 60% of all
supported graduate students are
teaching or graduate assistants.
While it might be possible to get
the figure up to 100%, this seems
unlikely in view of the variety of
support, some of which have restrictions on teaching functions.
“In any case, compliance with
SSS policies would have the effect of using the University to
help decide which students should
be drafted. It would also almost
certainly result in a new and alien
factor influencing what essentially ought to be a purely educational decision—about who should

Alternatives
“The alternatives seem to be:
Compliance with SSS. Individual departments would, no
doubt, make some effort to grant
TAs (or other duties that might
constitute grounds for deferment)
to as many vulnerable students as
possible, but not all students
could be covered, and even some
TAs might be classified I-A.
Non-cooperation. This might
consist of refusal to supply any
statement to SSS regarding the
duties of TAs;
Or, it might consist of an official statement that all graduate
students should be deferred (IIS) and that the university will not
claim that any of its graduate students fulfill the “full-time teaching” requirement. Essentially this
is the Harvard position, which
also includes the departments
“indirectly” supporting student
requests for H-A deferments by
supplying SSS with a statement
of the nature of teaching fellowships, as well as individual letters written by faculty about particular students;
Or, it might consist of a uniform statement, to be sent to the
draft boards of all draftable graduate students, at their request, by
all departments, as follows:

grounds.
‘As a degree candidate, Mr. Doe
engages in a long-established end
essential program of teaching
and study. At times he participates in the teaching of undergraduates, as instructor, section
assistant, grader, tutor, and lecturer. Just as in the case of any
faculty member, these duties vary
from semester to semester. Again
like any faculty member, Mr. Doe
is expected to spend a part of
his time in original research, and
will regularly teach in the areas
of his research to more advanced

students in seminars or other
groups which are part of his apprenticeship as well as part of
the studies of ail graduate students.
‘There are a number of graduate students at the University undertaking courses of teaching and
research; in no case is the program of two students indentical,
and we are dependent on the
special competence of each individual. Every year a number of
these people are awarded degrees
and enter into work as teachers,
research scholars, and other professions of importance to the national welfare.
‘Each year new degree candidates are accepted into graduate
school to take their places. Once
decisions are made (ordinarily in
April) about replacements are renewals, each graduate student/
teacher becomes an essential and
irreplaceable part of the educational process, until the following
year adn the next set of entering

Nursing Society meets Friday
A Nursing Honor Society has
been founded here recently. The
purposes of the society are manyfaceted, foremost to recognize the
achievement of scholarship of superior quality.
The society also wishes to recognize the development of leadership qualities; to foster high
professional standards; to encourage creative work, and to
strengthen commitment on the

part of individuals to the ideals
and purposes of the profession of
nursing.

A total of 34 undergraduates,
11 alumna and 30 faculty members have been chosen as charter
members.
Induction of members will be
held at 8 p.m. Friday in the F'aculaty Club, Harriman Library. Dr.
Richard A. Siggelkow will be the
guest speaker.

“Those students holding TAs

any suggested changes.

Student proposals
Harry Klein, one of two student members on the committee,
disclosed that he proposed the
number of hours a student must
fulfill for his major should be
cut to a definite maximum limit.
“It would be more liberal, less
restrictive on the student’s choice
of courses and more restrictive
on the department,” he said.
“Another proposal I put forth
would be to eliminate students
from having to major in any one
field. After four years the student would receive a B.A. University College degree. Other members of the committee were
against this idea, though, because
they feared students would take
only 100 level courses.”
It was noted by Dean Welch
that presently students could petition for a dual major, as long
as they had a 1,0 index. Thus a
person could coordinate courses
in the Political Science and Sociology Departments to form a major in Urban Affairs.
Meanwhile, negligent of all this
background planning, students
have already registered for the
fall term. Some advisors have told
their students to “wait and see,”
as far as fulfilling B-D requirements. Others have told students
to get the B-D requirements fin-

ished.
Dean Welch said: “There are

many people who stall feel there
is something to be said for satisfying all your B-D requirements
quickly. They believe it provides
an introduction to all courses and
helps the student realize the possibilities that exist.”

Forum to study ranking and grading

$2500 short?

Braun foresees deficit.
Student Association Treasurer
Douglas G. Braun said he expects
a $2500 deficit in this year’s budget. The deficit results from a
projection of $10,000 more than
the amount collected by student
fees minus $7500 which he ex-

pects will not be spent.
Regarding travel subsidies,
which the Student Association
currently provides, Mr. Braun
feels that "members of various
clubs and organizations should
seek funds through the academiic
department to which the club is
affiliated.” He said that since students represent this University
outside the community, and this
“benefits and enhances the reputation of the University,” it is the
consequent responsibility of the
University to provide the necessary funds. As an alternative solution to this same problem, he
suggests that fund-raising projects should be used.
Mr, Braun proposes the establishment of a convocations committee which will attempt to inform the University community
of a speaker’s appearance. It will
also formulate each program.
Mr. Braun also added: “This
procedure will eliminate the in-

grading system will be heard.

adequacies of present policy by
preventing two or more speakers
from appearing at the same time.”
He feels that the Academic de-

partments should also provide
funds for this phase of student
involvement.
He said that he would like to
see many clubs and organizations
consolidated with other programs.
“Clubs like Rugby, Karate, and
Judo should be sponsored and
therefore funded by the Athletic
Department.”

“The establishment of a separate UUAB fee is also imperative,” he said.
Mr. Braun feels it is “unreasonable” to expect undergraduates to
pay for programs in which all
graduate and MFC students participate. He foresees an “equitable solution” to this problem to
be arranged by Sub-Board I of
the FSA.
Acceptance of these proposals,
Mr. Braun said, would make a
student government with better
financed, well-coordinated programs.
As a key

to this potential success, he hopes that “all student
governments” will work together
in “establishing an excellent student activities program.”

Positive tool
At the time the Ad Hoc Committee recommended the proposal, they termed the present University grading system “a hindrance to learning, whereas it
should prove a positive, creative
tool for intellectual achievement.”
Under the new proposal, which
is “flexible enough to meet the
needs of different course situations, professors and students,”
according to committee chairman
Alan R. Andreasen, there would
be three alternatives comprising
the evaluation system.
Included in the proposed grading system would be letter grading (A=outstanding, B=above average, C=average, D=below average or marginal, F=failure), written descriptions of student performance, and satisfactory/unsatisfactory grading (the grade of S
would earn credit; the grade of
U would not).

Bona students hold sit-in
by Jan Fritz

Special to the Spectrum

OLEAN
A sit-in, calling for academic freedom and an “open
speaker” policy, was staged Saturday for the second straight day
on the St, Bonaventure University campus.
The protest, triggered by the decision of Rev. Reginald Redlon,
OEM, president of the University, to ban poet Allen Ginsberg from
a scheduled speaking engagement on May 13, was declared “peaceful” by those participating.
At least three faculty members and 50 students initiated a
sit-in Friday with the support of the University’s Student Senate.
Protestors were refused admittance to the administration building by campus policemen. Administrators, secretaries and friars were
allowed in, however.
Later in the afternoon, Father Redlon discussed the controversy
with the senators. During the three-hour session, the president indicated “very clearly” that he would not retract his decision to ban
Mr. Ginsberg:
After the meeting with the president, 'an emergency Senate
meeting, open to all, was called
The Senate, subtituted the word “sanction” for “support,” regarding its official attitude toward the sit-in. Individual senators
said they would continue to protest.
Senators passed a motion that we will initiate an open speaker
policy using University channeling and a sit-in at the administration
building until we reach a positive decision.”
It was decided to picket a planned Gutenberg Celebration yesterday and also Thursday’s annual Press Day for high school “until
the goals of the Student Senate in the realm of censorship are
achieved.”
Father Redlon was asked to meet with faculty and students at
the earliest possible date to discuss the issue.
Support by students appeared to be growing, “We will be alumni
in a few years,” said one co-ed protester. “I myself could not contribute to a school without academic freedom, where the students
can’t think for themselves.”
The entire issue was settled Saturday evening. Ginsberg will
not appear. But the status of future speakers will be decided by a
not by Fr. Redlon alone.

The Spectrum is a newspaper born
in the drama of stormy conflict
conflict between fraternity and antifrat forces 21 years ago.
The University then was poor, proud
—independent—and provincial.
And there were two campus newspapers. The Buffalo Bee, older of the

A professor; "Is UB a degree fac
tory?”
A student: "There's no place to
park.”
After printing four editions, The
Argus was awarded recognition, and
like The Bee, a budget.
The Argus prepared its readers for

that year to which the present-day
Spectrum traces its history.)
The Bee ran like a fat girls' gabtest: Trivia.
It once printed a hoax engagement
between two popular students: "People all over the campus fell for the
story when they saw Donna kiss Don
farewell as the latter left Norton for
class Monday,” bragged The Bee, apparently as proud of its purile gag as
it was uninhibited about its journalistic nakedness.
In the fall of 1941, pages of The
Bee were not splashed bloodily with
news of the war. A page-one story
lamented the students’ harsh fate:
“Back to the old grind again . . ■'
The war was distant.
There was an editorial urging students to buy bonds; a story about a
dance in Norton Hall, recently transformed into an air raid shelter.
Homecoming queens were big news,
though, and The Bee printed the full
story —complete with measurements.
The Argus competes
Then The Bee ran into opposition.
In 1947 a group of liberal students
banded together to form a "progressive newspaper” funded at first solely
by raffles and contributions.
And so The Argus was born.
Perhaps its founding revealed an
awakened feeling of world responsibility among students after the war.
Because The Argus commented cn
international affairs, reviewed foreign
films and attempted to break the enforced isolation of the University.
Its greatest campaign, however, was
against The Bee and its allied fraternaties and sororities.
Problems the same
Interestingly enough, letters to the
editor of The Argus are starkly similar
to those received today by The Spectrum- The problems and gripes are
the same:

pointed.
Jibes, barbs and insults continued

.

.

.

until 1950, when competition really
swung into high gear.
Both papers admitted irregularities
in the 1950 student senate elections.
But The Argus carried further, charging the fraternity-sorority block with
subversively misleading “unsuspecting student voters to the kill.”
The Bee launched its own veritable
napalm barrage.
“The Argus is a mudslinging student liability. It made appalling, insidious attacks. It has no dignity of journalism," cried the Bee editorially.
Staffs merged
Open battle was too much. The
board of managers withheld funds
from both papers. A lopsided merger
of “the journalistic quality of The Argus with the efficient business staff
of The Bee” was arranged.
It is difficult to determine whether
the action of the board was a result
of the bitter rivalry, or because of an
anti-Catholic article printed by The
Argus.

But few old Argus staffers would

join the new, and as yet unnamed,
merged newspaper.

The Bull Pen?
A contest was sponsored to name
the new paper. The editorial board
couldn't choose between The Spectrum and The Bull Pen. So the first
edition was labeled “The Official Student Publication of The University of
Buffalo.”
The Spectrum finally won-out. And
the baby publication was given a budget of $1000 (about 1% of the 196869 Spectrum budget).
It was weekly until 1966, when the
paper shifted into semi-weekly production.
Spectrum editors plan to begin

As one reads an edition of The

Spectrum, the next is in the process
of being assembled. The staff barely
has time to marvel over the paper,
and then it's back to work.
Those who have never worked on
a newspaper may tend to romanticize

and believe everyone to be a Brenda
Starr.
Everyone knows that Brenda Starr,
woman reporter, always encounters
mysterious personalities that send her
on adventures to distant parts of the
world.
She never has to do campus releases or rewrite a story. Neither is
she connected with the less publicized, but equally important staffs
copy and layout—nor with the circulation of the paper nor with the business office.
Alas, Brenda's story is somewhat
incomplete. Therefore, The Spectrum
would like to complete it.
First—The Assignment.
Unsuspecting, you walk into the office to relax. A foolhardy notion. Before you have the chance to put down
your books, an editor with a gleam in
his eyes approaches. Oh, no, it’s assignment time.
You are handed a piece of paper
on which is written three names, two
phone numbers, "call" on top, and a
big question mark beneath it all. As
an explanation is—to begin, the phone
rings, the editor answers, and there
you are left—with a big question
mark.
Finally, he hangs up and asks:
“Now that you've had a chance to
look over the assignment, is there
anything you don’t understand about
it?”

A deadline to meet
"Yes. What am I supposed to do?”
After a brief explanation and a few
suggestions, he says: "This is Wednesday, so have it in by Friday. O.K.?”
Whether it’s O.K. or not, you’ve got
to have it in by Friday. So now you
must set up an appointment.
To do this, you must dial one of
the numbers on the list and wait for
a secretary. Usually, she transfers
you to another secretary, who in turn
transfers you to the right secretary.
By this time, the person you want to
see has gone out of town for a week.
The article is due before he will return, so you must go to the next
name on the list.
Once again, you dial and are connected with a secretary. This time
you are in luck and she sets up an
appointment which is changed when
she calls back half an hour later. If
nothing else, you are gathering data
for an expose on the University’s secretaries. Eventually you reach the

time.

When will it be in the paper?
Usually you have an idea of what
you are going to ask him. Once the
questions (and you) are exhausted,
you ask if there is anything he would
care to add and terminate the interview.
“I’ve enjoyed this interview. When
will it be in the paper?” is the usual
response.
Explaining that the article is due
Friday and will appear in Tuesday's
issue, you leave. The next step is to
prepare it for publication —writing the
article. After it is written and then
typed, it is out of your hands and into
those of the editor (either campus,
city, sports, or feature, depending on
your interest).

The Interview.
You must arrive on time, have a
neat appearance, and have plenty of
paper. After a brief wait, the subject
is ready to see you. One of the most
important things to remember is to
be attentive, look at the person, and
write down everything you hear.
Above all, pretend to be interested
—even if he is talking about the computer wiring mechanism and its operation. If you don't understand any
of the terms he uses, don’t hesitate
to ask for clarification; although you
may hesitate after the third or fourth

The editor, pencil in hand, reads
the article and then proceeds to decorate your handiwork with all sorts

he is finished destroying your confidence, he puts it into the little wooden copy box.
A few minutes later, it comes out

it goes into the hands of the managing editors who make the last checks.

All the day-to-day problems of the
Spectrum staff roll straight into the
lap of the managing editor.
From his vantage point, in his

private office or out among the common folks, Dick Haynes must decide
and solve anything that can’t wait for

the editor—where a story should be
cut, what type of headline should be
used, where an ad should go.
Like a factory supervisor, he
watches over every operation of the
paper, making sure it is well-oiled and
functioning. It is a six-day-a-week job
that totals 40 hours, and the easy
moments are rare.
Forty busy hours—and sometimes it is really not an enjoyable job

Actually, there’s a little bit of
talent scout work, too, placing newcomers to the paper on the staff on
which he feels they belong.
But probably his toughest problem is dealing with the individual department editors. The managing editor
has to rush them enough to get copy
in on time each deadline day, yet not
push them so far that they’ll quit.
Mr. Haynes commented: "You can't
be lax, but if you’re too strong, you’ll
lose good people. You have to keep a

He is the sole recipient of the
blame for anything that goes wrong.
Reporters complain to him if there is

way he wants it;

Combined efforts and frustrations,
some successes and the inevitable
failures, missed deadlines and the
last minute rushes —all of these, and
much more, are part of the experience
that is The Spectrum.
Publishing 15,000 copies of The
Spectrum twice every week requires
a combination of the skills and talents
of a large and diversified staff. To
keep the melange of student journalists operating smoothly together, delineation of operations and organization is essential.
The organization of the current
Spectrum staff consists of an editorin-chief, managing editor, assistant
managing editor, seven editors, each
with an assistant and a staff, a business manager, an advertising manager, and a circulation-promotion director.

Each one of these persons, although important in themselves, could
not function without the efforts and

work of the “underlings” on the staff
—the reporters. They are the heart of
The Spectrum, as in any other newspaper.

Concern for reporters
Recognizing the importance and indispensability of reporters, editors
make use of them to the utmost advantage. The four news editors
campus, city, feature and sports
are most concerned with the life and
times of reporters.
The campus staff, as its name implies, is directly involved with news
events that occur on campus. These
events can range from visiting lecturers, to dormitory activities, to student government happenings, to the
restructuring of the University. Any
and all newsworthy events are the
proper concern of the campus staff.
In the field of city news, the city
editor and his staff concentrate on all
events that are of interest occurring
in the city of Buffalo, statewide, or
even of national and international
scope. In addition to regular reporting, this staff also has the task of
editing the news that is received in
The Spectrum office over the UPI
wire and the paper’s three other news
services. The wire is used to put together the World in Focus, which appears on the back page of each
edition.
The feature staff

the University community may be
handled by the feature staff.
This diversified staff may indulge
the creativity of budding writers.
Movie, theater, book and record reviews,'Tiuman interest stories, in-depth
interviews all fall under the category
of feature stories. In addition, DimenThe Spectrum's
sion magazine
also includes

the writings of members of this staff.
For those interested in the athletic
side of University life, the sports staff
provides Spectrum readers with coverage of sports events. All University
sports, from football to crew, are the
domain of the sports staff.
A very essential part of the total
newspaper organization is the Photography staff. Students interested in
photography are needed to add the
immediacy of pictures to the news
stories, and to accompany reporters
on assignments.

Little known
The two least known, but equally
important staffs are copy and layout.
The copy staff reads all the copy that
eventually appears in The Spectrum,
including news copy, ads, editorials
and columns. In addition to reading
copy before it goes to the printer, the
staff also checks proofs returned from
the printer for possible mistakes.
While the copy staff is reading the
proofs, the layout staff is performing
its job—placing copy in its position
in the paper. Artistic ability is helpful here, as well as expertise with
scissors and glue.
The managing editors
Overlooking the entire operations
of these staffs is the managing editor
and his assistant. The responsibility
of seeing that the whole machine functions smoothly rests with them. They
must also correlate the actions of the
business office with the editorial staff.
The business office handles the financial aspect of The Spectrum, from
the budget to billing advertisers.
Finally, the ultimate responsibility
for the operation of the entire newspaper is in the hands of the editorin-chief. He determines editorial policy
and is the image of The Spectrum to
the outside world.
His paper is the voice of the students. It is his responsibility to make
it a respected and articulate one.

About one-sixth of the city is left unprotected

“Whether a large number or a small number of
persons is involved in pulling false alarms it’s a
problem we don’t like,” he continued. “The students
still think pulling alarms is a big joke, like they
did four years ago when the feud between the fire
department and the University began.”
Since then the number of false alarms from the
University has mounted, including seven since January of this year.

Student pressure asked
Commissioner Howard and Dr. Siggelkow have
discussed alternative solutions. “Alarms could go
to the security police office and then be checked
out," suggested Mr, Howard. “We wouldn't like to
do that unless we have to. We hope that the
responsible students will put enough pressure on
those who are pulling the alarms and report them
to the proper officials.”
Dr. Siggelkow said: “We are still investigating
various possibilities, honing to come to a resolution
of the problem without jeopardizing the safety and
welfare of students at the University. Any kind
of delay during a real fire might prove too late. We
can’t take the chance.”
Chances for arriving at a concrete solution seem
minimal. Such factors as fire protection for onesixth of the city, the lives of firemen and pedestrians, and the money spent for equipment must be
weighed against the possibility of an alarm not being false. And in that possibility lies the safety
of University property, and more important, the
lives of the members of the University community.

Undue attention drawn
Dr. Anthony Lorenzetti, Dean of Students, said:
“There seems to be a higher rate of false alarms
during controversial issues. The pulling of these
alarms jeopardizes the rest of the city and tends to
draw attention to the University."
Under the new penal code, the pulling of a
false alarm is a Class B misdemeanor which includes a jail term of not more than 3 months.
Under the old penal code, it was a misdemeanor
with possible jail sentences running up to one year,

The University is not the only place in the city

Firefighters thrash-out their differences with Norton Hall's night managers after answering a false
alarm. There have been seven on campus since
January.

“When I was a fireman in 1943, the cost of a

such things as the possibility of an accident. If
you are going to allow for $50, you also have to
allow for the intangibles. Things such as the possibility of injuries, people being killed, wrecked

Evacuation policy is a major controversy. Students continually refuse to evacuate buildings
where alarms have been pulled. They refused to
leave the Millard Fillmore Room March 1 when
firemen responded to a false alarm pulled as
comedian Dick Gregory was about to speak.
“A number of times students have told firemen
that the alarm was false, but we don’t assume it’s
a false alarm,” said the Commissioner. “We must,
in fact, assume that there is a real fire until we
check it out.”
He continued: “I’ve received a couple letters
from University students complaining about evacuation policy, complaining about being forced out
of bed, and complaining that their exams suffered
and they didn’t get enough sleep. But what can we
do? If students refuse to leave, we’ll have to cut
University fire alarm boxes off from the rest of the
city. To do this will endanger every student. We
already have cut down on the amount of apparatus
being sent. If we do have to, the campus will suffer
and it will be your loss rather than ours.

Innovations in freshman chemistry
aimed at gaining students' interest
Based on the findings of a
Committee of the University
Chemistry Department, Gordon
M. Harris, chairman of the Department of Chemistry, has announced a series of changes in
freshman chemistry courses.
These changes result from the
finding that only a small minority
of the students who register for
Chemistry 101 and 102 have not
had high school chemistry. The
planned changes are aimed at interesting the students in chemistry rather than continuing the
training in the language of chemistry which the student has begun
in high school.

Innovations
In line with this aim, the fol-

lowing changes will be instituted:
Chemistry 103, 104 will be
eliminated after summer 1968.
Chemistry 101, 102 will be
organized on a system of two lectures and a small group discussion session in place of the current three lectures a week.

The Spectrum

strike-out

the spectrum of

sports

by Danny Edelman
Assistant Sports Editor

Tomorrow the student body will have the chance to vote on

once again. There are various issues surrounding the question of
athletic fees that deserve to be illuminated in order to give a better
picture of the implications of tomorrow’s vote and the effect that it
will have on the University community.
The position of the athletic department is very clear and easily

explainable.
They want a big-time athletic program comparable to any in
the nation. Under the leadership of athletic director Jim Peele, they
have moved in that direction slowly but surely even before the University was merged into the state system, and despite obstacles
thrown up by the State they have continued to move in that direction
with the approval of high University officials including President
Meyerson.
Unfortunately, their dreams have far exceeded the reality of
constructing such a program. The most obvious problem, visible to

anyone who walks around the campus, is the present athletic facilities. The combination of Rotary Field and Clark Gym may be the
worst in the country for a school of this size. This has been noted
for many years, but nothing will be done about it because the new
campus, the future panacea for all the University problems will take
care of this one also. The most important problem, and one that no
one would 'have dreamed possible just a few years ago, concerns

the students.
A basic requirement of any athletic program—big-time, smalltime or no-time—is that the students pay some form of mandatory
fees that are put at the disposal of the athletic department.
When the bombshell of voluntary fees was instituted, the athletic department was coping with something for which they really
had no precedent.
I think the basic reason for this is that the athletic department
can’t conceive a student body not wanting a big-time athletic program, one that will bring the State University of Buffalo fame and
fortune throughout the land. They have tried to divorce themselves,
to a large extent, from the large vocal body of student activists on
campus as not being representative of the University. This is especially true when they are appealing to the community at large for
athletic funds. I am not saying that this is done at Buffalo alone,
rather I think it is the rule throughout the' country that athletic
departments deliberately minimize student activities that are unpopular to the community at large in order not to damage their monetary
returns from loyal alumni. This is only natural.
But the question still reverts back to the students. Many of
them simply either don’t care about the athletic program. Or if
there has to be an athletic program at all, let it be basically intramural in nature.
Persons adopting the attitude of “I don’t care” form that part
of the community, which for one reason or another, never gets
involved in the American syndrome known as organized sport, ie.
Little League, Midget Football, etc., or never had any inclination
toward sports.

The intramuralists would like to see an athletic program that
basically intramural in nature have some convincing arguments
in their corner.
They argue that an intramural program would involve more
of the students in athletic activities whereas a big-time
athletic
program is geared for those who are excellent athletes—good
enough
in fact that they command a four year scholarship at a university
for the sole purpose of participating in a sport.
There are misconceptions that are used in defense of this intramural position that needs to be exposed.
ear
S
this school does go big-time in sports
the athletes will get a lot of extra privileges that ordinary
students
not
do
receive. This has happened at other schools that do have
big-time programs and are thus forced to recruit all
over the country for the best athletes. But this doesn't necessarily mean that
if
will happen here if the proper precautions are taken.
A first step is the establishment of an athletic board composed
of student and representative of the athletic department to
oversee
all aspects of the athletic program in all its phases,

Q. If I submit an application for financial assistance to the University, and receive noTielp from my parents, do they still have to provide information about their income?
A. Because of the many angles surrounding this question and because it is significant to a very targe number of students we are
answering it in great detail:
The Financial Aid Office has advised us that the basic premise
of the federally supported student assistance programs, which represent the great bulk of funds administered by that office, is that a student and his parents have the primary obligation to pay for his education. The family of a student is expected to make a maximum effort
to assist him with his college expenses. It is the Federal Government’s intent to supplement that family contribution where the family is unable to meet the full cost. Funds are not intended to be used
as a substitution for the obligation of the family in this matter.
The determination of a family’s responsibility in the case of a
student who considers himself independent is a matter which must
be resolved on the basis of the facts in each case. For purposes of financial assistance, independence cannot be left to the option of the
student—it is rather a matter of circumstance. If he wishes to receive
financial help, he cannot choose to forego the assistance which his
family would normally be expected to extend to him. This can take
many forms—for example, room, board and clothing—as well as actual payments in money. Generally speaking, if a student is living at
home, there is an assumption that he is receiving assistance from his
parents, and is not an independent student.
For some federal programs, even though the student is independent, the ability of the parents to contribute to his education must still
be taken into consideration. The College Work-Study Program is an
example of this. It was initiated by the Federal Government to stimulate and promote the part-time employment of students who are from
low income families and are in need of the earnings from such employment in order to pursue their courses of study. The important factor
in the determination of eligibility to participate in this program is the
ability of the parents to finance educational costs, and decisions are
based upon their statements in regard to family income, assets and resources as set forth on the Parents’ Confidential Statement of the College Scholarship Service.
One key to the determination of independent status is whether
or not a student is declared by his parents as a dependent for income
tax purposes. His dependency is self-evident if he is so declared. How-

ever, for financial assistance purposes, the fact that the parents do
not include him among their exemptions is not in itself evidence that
dependency does not exist.

In determining eligibility for financial assistance, the important
consideration in the review of all applications is the responsibility of
the family to contribute toward the student’s educational expenses,
and the actual circumstances in each case.
Q. When is the fountain by Norton Hall going to be cleaned and

put into service?
A. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Our inquiry
brought immediate action. The fountain was put into operation the

following day.
Q. Why is it that the inter-campus bus sometimes appears late or,
on other occasions, does not appear?
A. Of late we have been having increasing problems with the bus
schedule, and have been working steadily with the bus company to
maintain their assigned schedule. We are ever hopeful.
Q. Can a student have his eyes examined, for glases, in the Infirmary?

A. No. The University Health Service does not have either the facilities or equipment necessary for such examinations. However, if you
wish, they can give you the names of opthalmologists, with whom you
can arrange an appointment for such an examination.
Q. Why doesn't the Language Lab open as scheduled on Saturday

mornings?

A. This particular problem was recently brought to the attention of
the Director of the Language Lab, and he has already taken steps to
rectify this.

Wood Coli

Foresees 'radical alternative' as third force
Spectrum

Staff

Reporter

Whatever happened to Woody Cole, the
“Peace candidate” for Buffalo Councilman-at-large in last November’s election?
For one thing, he has not returned to
the Ivy Tower of Academia (if ever he
was there). As a matter of fact, the old
Ivy Tower has even closed its doors on
Buffalo State College has
Mr. Cole
refused to grant him tenure.
—

The immediate nasty that pops to mind
is that this was some sort of political
action, but Mr. Cole says: “not fundamentally so. The decision was made last
spring, and it’s the same old question of
should one grant tenure to an instructor
without his Ph.D, Of course, publishing
is a factor in this also.” He added that
in his opinion the criteria for granting
tenure were not nearly broad enough, and
I would agree with Mm. An hour’s conversation with Woody Cole was worth
30 hours of the wit and wisdom of some
venerable Ph.D’s.

Remains in Buffalo
But Woody Cole is not leaving Buffalo.
“My academic wares: philosophy of religion and existentialism can be peddled
anywhere,” and since political action is
still uppermost in hds mind: “Why move
to another urban center whose' problemsI don’t even know?”
Seemingly then, he is undaunted by
the ousting. But then again Woody Cole’s
existence does not seem to be rooted in
The Hallowed Halls. One could more
aptly place him in City Hall, where he
continues to press for the things he

ieves in, electoral mandate or no. His
major concerns are poverty, racism, and,

of

course,

Vietnam.

methods.” Some of the agencies he sug
gests ate:
Urban Action Association

To achieve the progress called for in
these areas, Woody Cole sees the need
for a third political force, “a radical
alternative” as he calls it, for “the old
two-party political system is suffering
from a disease of epidemic proportions.”

“Politics has become an arena of the
statemansMp of manipulation, and not the
pursuit of what is right, morally or politically.” This third political force he
hopes will serve as a means to make problems and issues embarassingly clear to a
great number of people. In this sense,
he feels his candidacy to have been a
success, although he would have liked to
have seen a larger vote in his support.
But it provided a rallying point for those
against the war, for dissent and the peace
issue.
It tackled “head-on the horror of the
old Joe McCarthy era and helped, perhaps, to weaken it. We learned a great
deal about the city and issues affecting
it, and the campaign resulted in new
forms of valuable political action and
’

organization.”

What students can do
Woody Cole also has some suggestions
for what students who share his views
can do, for he feels that there is “too
much ideological self-indulgence on campus. Too many students are more concerned with maintaining their own opinions and confuting those of their friends
verbally, instead of through activist

An organization wMch grew out of Ms

ple ways to bring issues to public attention, for example it helped organize the
King Memorial on Niagara Square, and
calling draft resistance to the attention
of citizens, “General Hershey’s version of
1984,” in the words of Mr. Cole.

Freedom Peace Committee:

A collection of concerned people in the
academic community and the community
at large 'trying to implement and direct
attention to the problems of racism and
injustice.

Build Us Toot

An orgamzation of the white community, its purpose being to confront people
with their racism, apathy, inequity, and
indifference.

In addition students might attend the
regular meetings of the Community Action Organization, or participate in the
local Poor People’s Campaign.

“The whole problem with getting students involved politically is to get the
romance out of their eyes involving national elections. It is far more advantageous for them to become involved in
local organizing.” And speaking of the
community at large he says that “the
real evil we have to deal with is the
banality of evil .that grows out of indifference."

Politics of patronage
Mr. Cole professes a “subjective sympathy” for both Eugene McCarthy and
Dick Gregory, but he adds: “At this point
in lime, the old politics of patronage and
back-slapping have to be overthrown first,
before the political system becomes demo-

cratic.”
After a disappointing defeat in November and his ouster from Buffalo State,

one would almost expect Woody Cole to
be a very disheartened person, but tMs
is far from the case.
In fact, in many Ways he is encouraged
though much remains to be done. There
is a third political force which people
are beginning to recognize, and he proudly pointed to the fact that, the morning
I interviewed him, at least eight or nine
secretaries in City Hall greeted him with,
“Oh, so you’re Mr. Cole.”
“I’m not by nature a bitter person,” he
says, “because history teaches us that
things have been so much worse, and
even though our society is abusing its

institutions and laws which enable it to
be an open society, at this point, at least,
it is still strong enough to succeed In
the future. In spite of the Establishment,
bureaucracy, racism and indifference,
censorship and unconstitutional laws, I
still think this country is open enough
that it can adjust enough and change. ‘We
shall overcome’.”

It is a shame that the voting populace
of Buffalo could not have had the experience I had of talking with Mr. Cole. But
then again, how much could one man
sway reactionary minds?

In one short selection written
by A1 Pinchoff, Gen. Hershey announces a new Selective Service

absolutely and inflexibly impossible. While it is true that, generally speaking, dead men don’t

4 Big Groovin’ Nights

Staff

When in the course of events I was called upon to review
another campus production, I was struck with the anticipation of a mediocre production. And thus was I encouraged
when before mine eyes unfolded the most profound and
moving student production I have seen to date.

“Riots” is a unique commentary by Mr. Hoos on life, death,
draft, time, Negro, state of man,
society. These themes are handled sometimes deftly, delicately,
sometimes bluntly and obtusely,
but they are always designed to
impart maximum impact on the
viewer. There is some significance
to every line
more than can
be reaped from seeing “Riots”
—

just

once.

Time and youth are discussed
in several sections including a
gravely deep, melodic interpretation of “Where Are You Going” by a folksinging Carol Forman.

Mr. Hoos’s work is pleading
with people to examine the ultimate values of existence, not just
superficially to examine words
like death and dishonor. Lanny
Lerner relates this message especially well in “Johnny Got His
Gun:” “I want to live.”

Impressive talent
Mr. Hoos also deserves a great
deal of credit for his job of casting the production. Probably the
single most impressive facet of
the presentation was the unveiling of an impressive amount of
genuine student acting ability.
Several actors truly distinguished
themselves. Corinne Broskett was
sensual and sincere in her delivery of Molly Bloom’s soliloquy.
She exhibited a clear, pleasing
singing voice when she combined
with Carol Forman in a rather
unique duet. Joy Peskin is an uninhibited actress whose impressive physical presence and heavy
use of dialect make her roles
most effective. Duffy Magesis relates a strong message in Gutter
Rats: “to keep me in that gutter,
you have to be in it too.”
The best over-all section was
“If We Must Die” in which Maury
Chaykin’s superb characterization
of the southern hypocrite brought
to mind a sharp resemblance to
Rod Steiger and “In the Heat of
the Night,”
Ron Martenbro was convincing
as a black man being humiliated,
as was Carol Forman who was a
very good

Sam.

Bruce Kaiden topped off the
evening with an endearing interpretation of “Alice’s Restaurant,”
a satirically funny approach to
a very serious problem.

Bjack/white

Mr. Hoos is experimenting with
new ideas, forms and media. The
black man is a recurrent character in the skits; yet there is
true integration; w h it e actors
played Negroes and vice-versa.
Interjected between several
skits were aphorisms and witticisms. For example, if Shirley
Temple Black should marry Tyrone Power, her name would be
Shirley Black Power.
By the end of the program the
viewer must feel emotionally
drained yet strangely refreshed
after having been exposed to
laughing at the most serious and
profound aspects of being.
“Riots” will be staged again
this afternoon and Wednesday at
4 p.m.

Ah, yes, My Little Chickadees!
The old songs are the best songs.
Give me ragtime, and dixieland,
and bluegrass banjo music, and
I’ll be happy the whole night long.
Well, friends and neighbors, to
kick off Kaleidoscope ’68 the University’s Spring Weekend, that’s
exactly the kind of music the
audience was treated to. The Millard Fillmore Room was transformed into a Gay Nineties atmosphere complete with red and
white checkered
tableclothes,
foaming brew (it’s legal because
the campus is wet now), handlebar mustaches and happy people.
The impetus to all this frivolity
is a banjo playing, red striped
shirted, mustached, sing-along
band called
“Your Father’s
Mustache,”

Hand-clappin'
The audience reaction to this
“old-timer” group: foot stompin’,
hand clappin’, swaying, dancing,
and all kinds of foolish carryingson. Why, there was one guy there
with a broken foot, who was so
involved with the festivities that
he went hopping along in the
snake dance around the tables
waving his cane.
During the intermissions (that’s
when the boys with banjos went
over to the bar to sip a little
brew) they showed actual black
and white motion pictures of that
flicker star Charlie Chaplin.

Beer-can pyramids
Another activity at this here
goings-on that developed a spirit
of table rivalry was the building
of beer-can pyramids.
Some of the structures contained what appeared to be
enough cans to quench the thirst

of the Chinese army.

A rhythm and blues singer,
she was number one in that category in 1967. Her gospel singing

she exhibited her strong voice
with a few very long, very effective notes.

sence of a certain “Sweet Sue.”

Her orange mini-shimmy fringed
dress wasn’t the eye-catcher in
her act; it was the lacy garter
she had way up on her leg.
All of these songs were accompanied by assorted mirthful shouts
and Hee Haa’s as the audience
and performers blended into one
banjo-based songfest. Along with
the two banjos, “Your Father’s
Mustache” uses a slide trombone,
a tuba, and a wash board.
All who attended this portion
of Spring Weekend undoubtedly
enjoyed themselves, their neighbors, their beer, and the banjos.

The play was first performed

If these kids don’t make it,
neither do we.

These are big city school children. They are partners
of all who try to build and keep our cities alive with hope
and promise of personal dignity. If we fail these partners,
they will fail, as finally will we all.
To the Beil System, they also are customers and,
prospectively, many are fellow employees. Those we hire
will bring with them attitudes and skills produced by city
life and city schools. Their qualities will help shape the
quality of our service. And service is our product.
Bell System companies and people are increasingly
engaged to help meet the problems of the cities, especially
those concerning education and employability. In these
areas our skills and other business resources may hatfe
extra value. We shall try to keep our deeds outrunning

Study of University Stores aims at
locating problems, seeking solutions
cooperative

University Stores, designed to
produce a report which will be
a basis for present improvement
and present planning, will be undertaken this summer.

This project “appears to be
one of the first attempts to survey the role of the bookstore
and its relationship to the University community and its future,” according to Mr. George
Bielan, general manager of the
University Bookstore. As part of
this undertaking, a questionnaire
has been developed by the Supervisory Staff of the Bookstore and

the Student Administrative Assistant, David Cornberg.

The purpose of the questionnaire is to provide an opportunity
whereby customers of the bookstore,' including students, faculty,
staff and members of the Buffalo
community, can document what
they want instead of “merely
criticizing verbally the operations
of the University Bookstore.” According to Mr. Comberg, the questionnaire will serve in helping
“first to define and resolve present problems and secondly to
project and prepare for future
problems.”

Created to develop more meaningful lines of communication at
the Student level, the Student Administrative Assistant also “allows us to gauge more accurately
student thinking in terms of bookstore operations and source smade
available,” said Mr. Bielan.

Purposes
The questionnaire has a twofold purpose. Specific suggestions
from customers interested in the
current operation of the book-

in order to locate problems and
seek solutions will be elicited.
Also, it aims to make people in
the University and communityat-large aware of some of the
difficulties facing the University
stores and especially the Bookstore and to clear up misconceptions concerning the operation of
the University stores.
“Research so far indicates that

many of our problems are national in scope and are not re-

stricted to this University,” said
Mr. Bielan,

Counter service?
He cited a “serious shortage of
space” as one of the key problems currently facing the Bookstore, “which will probably get
worse before it gets better.” Conceivably, due to this lack of space,
he noted, within six months to
a year the bookstore may be
faced with a change to a clerkserviced operation, wherein customers would not be allowed in
the store and all business would
be transacted over a counter at
the front door.

Bible Truth

ETERNAL LIFE IS IN CHRIST
"I am the resurrection, and the
life; he that believeth in me, though
he were dead, yet shall he live."
"Because I live, ye shall live also.”
—John 11:25, 14:19

“on Campiia

“Given tih situation and the
fact that we occasionally have
lines waiting to get into the bookstore, it’s not difficult to imagine
lines from the lobby of Norton
Hall extending to Clark Gym.”

At the annual meeting of the
National Association of College
Stores held in New York in April,
the idea of this study was greeted
with great interest, especially by
John Worthington, manager of
the Co-op Bookstore at Princeton,
and A1 Zavelle, general merchandising manager of the Harvard

Students in Europe to take part
in peace research conference
research. The conference will be
held in Hesbjerg, Denmark, from
July 14 util Aug. 18.
The Summer School hopes to
draw on 35 competent, serious
students from around the world.
They must be familiar with peace
literature and willing to try to
write an introductory text book
on peace research.
This book is intended to serve
the needs of university teachers
and students, to persuade the

public and governmental authorities that peace research is an established discipline and to show
the possibilities of integration in
this emerging field.
Although participants are expected to pay for their own
traveling expenses, their stay in
Hesbjerg will be paid for by the

school. It may be necessary, however, to charge a small enrollment fee.

Anyone interested in obtaining
further information should contact Mrs. Marvin Opler at extension 3717.

Gym and IDA ties
The main immediate issues that ground
the University to a halt have a long history. Over the past several years, Students
for a Democratic Society (SDS), the Student Afro-American Society and various
community groups have conducted a continous campaign against plans for the
construction of a University gymnasium in
Morningside Heights.
This past year SDS and other groups
also protested the University’s institution-

al affilitations with the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA). Sit-ins, demonstrations, petitions with thousands of names,
formal requests from the Columbia Citizenship Council (an arm of the student
government) were used.
To all these legitimate protests the
University turned a deaf ear. Its answer to
the Citizenship Council early last fall was
that construction of the gym could not be
halted and that “it was as good as built.”
The gym, once approved as an earnest
gesture of racial goodwill, is now reviled
as a racist device, with separate doors for
students and Harlemites. The Afro-American Society marched through Harlem last
week chanting: “Gym goes up, Columbia
goes down.”

"Painful" decision

Poor learn protest techniques
MARKS, Miss.—Workshops on demonstrations tactics were on the agenda for
recruits for the Poor People’s March,
tarrying in the Mississippi Delta while organizers search for volunteers.
For the second night since their arrival
by bus from Memphis, the marchers
abandoned their campground and took
shelter with Negro families in the improverished area.

The marchers are to leave Marks in a

mule and wagon train bound for Wash-

ington by way of Alabama, Georgia, the
Carolinas and Virginia.
Mayor Howard Langford met for a half
hour with leaders of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), sponsors of the march discussing the group’s
plans, white in the northeast Mississippi
town of 3000.
“They don’t want any violence and I
can agree with anybody that’s trying to

“I think the town will be a lot less tense
when I have a chance to get out and explain to people,”
SCLC organizers have gone out into

$1517, on recruiting drives.
Workshops have been schduled to teach

area Friday.
Speculation was mounting in Paris
diplomatic circles that the preliminary
talks between Hanoi and Washington
would lead to all-inclusive peace negotiations, also to be held in France.
The Paris preparation coincided with a
Soviet statement applauding the agreement to hold the preliminary talks in
Paris, Diplomatic sources in London saw

North Vietnam’s move toward the confer-

ence table as a victory for the Soviet Union
over Communist China in a struggle for

influence with Hanoi.
Mai Van Bo, chief of the North Vietnamese Mission in Paris and Hanoi’s top
diplomat in the West, called at the French
Foreign Ministry on the Qua D’Orsay last
weekend. He conferred with Etienne Manach, chief of the Foreign Ministry's

brass knuckles. Students and faculty who
remained on the steps were smashed and
blooded in full view of reporters. They
were grabbed by the shoulders and thrown
down the cement steps or into the stone
pillars.

Hundreds of bystanders and members
of the Majority Coalition, an anti-demonstration group, stood in shock trying to
disperse the crowd, Police attacked them
and many more arrests and beatings took

place.

Issue becomes student involvement

Trustees, following the recommendation
Two days later, the University Board of
of a faculty committee, agreed to consider
possible changes in the structure of the
University and to consult with Harlem
leaders on the future of the gym.
But now the issue has gone far be
yond the Harlem gym and the IDA, The
overriding question is that of the role of
students in the decision-making appara
tus of the University. Many students are
calling for the resignation of President
Kirk, his vice president, and some members of the Board of Trustees.
The College Council—Columbia’s main
undergraduate government organizationvoted to endorse the demand for President
Kirk’s resignation. The campus newspaper,
the Spectator, has taken a similar position.
However, some student leaders—notably SDS President Mark Rudd, the unofficial head of the take-over of the five
campus buildings—said that students
should concentrate on setting up their
own classes and on controlling the University.

Meanwhile, the National Student Association has announced that 61 student
body presidents around the country have

President Johnson said federal officials

are “concerned” about the camp-in and
“are making extensive preparations” for

better served if the marchers would leave
after a demonstration in Washington and
let Congress and the administration plan

for peace

PARIS—French Foreign Ministry officials conferred separately with American
and North Vietnamese diplomats to work
out details of preliminary Vietnam negotiations scheduled to start in the Paris

By the end of last week, the Greciangowned heroic statue of Columbia facing
Butler Library wore black cloth arm bands
on both arms—a student sign of sympathy
that blossomed generally last Tuesday after 1000 policemen swarmed onto the campus at 2:30 a.m. to clear about 700 sit-in
strikers from five University buildings
they had held for a week. 720 persons
were arrested and 148 injured as a result of what many called police brutality.
President Kirk had finally decided to
call the police in, calling the decision “the
most painful one I ever made.” He found
his office in wreckage, furniture smashed,

files rifled. Damage to the five buildings
has been estimated at several hundred
thousand dollars.
The first police violence came at Avery

R. Sargent Shriver, due to take up his
duties in about two weeks, is not yet in
Paris.
It was understood from ministry sources
that the talks touched only on suggestions
for the actual site of the negotiations. Several possibilities have been mentioned, including the famous Chateau de Versailles.
French diplomats were generally unwilling to make comments on the scale

However, there was independent speculation that the preliminary conference

Meyerson plans to involve
University in black ghetto

President Meyerson announced Monday the establishment of a select committee of
University students, faculty and administrators designed to “enhance and expand educational, economic and environmental opportunity for minority and disadvantaged groups in
the Buffalo community.”
Monday’s announcement explained in preliminary detail the broad program of Unicommunity involvement hinted at by President Meyerson in a press conference three weeks
ago, following the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Dr. James A. Moss, professor of sociology, has been
appointed chairman of the
Committee on Equal Opportunity, the new group’s official name.
The committee will consist of
the University vice presidents for
Student Affairs and Business Affairs, Dr, Richard A. Siggelkow
and Dr. Claude E. Puffer, the director of the Office of Urban
Affairs, Gordon Edwards; three
faculty members and four students, one from the Graduate
Student Association, one from the
Millard Fillmore College Student
Association, and two from the
undergraduate Student Association.
The committee appointments
are scheduled to be announced
by the President’s office this
week.
The following University programs are in “immediate pros-

pect,” according to a University
spokesman:

The March 8 Faculty Senate resolution that condemned
the war in Vietnam as “illegal, immoral, and contrary to
American principles” was reaffirmed Tuesday at a special
meeting of the Senate in Butler Auditorium.

By refusing to adopt a resolution that would have declared the March 8 Senate action “null and void due to procedural irregularities,” the Senate body chose, by a vote of
143 to 98 to retain the controversial war resolution.
In the regular meeting that followed, a vote on a resolution
that would have temporarily banned military recruiters from campus was postponed until the next

Faculty upholds war resolution
Continued from Page 1

Students speak
Two student

Martin Guggenheim of the Student Association chastized the entire body for its neglect of student
opinion in forming University
policies. Recruitment “affects
students more than any other
segment of this University,” he
said, and thus should have more
than a “token public speaking
voice.”
“It is far more radical and
meaningful,” he contiuned, “If
you were to open this meeting
to everyone rather than condemn
a war when your decision is ultimately unheard anyway.”
Carl Murphy of the Graduate
Association reported that his organization had recommended discontinuance of campus recruitment by the military.

At this juncture, Prof. Roy
Lachman of the Psychology Dept,
introduced an amendment that
would give “those students who
choose to emigrate and/or go to
jail rather than participate in military service all credits, status,
and privileges at the State University of Buffalo equal to those
entering upon and returning from
military status.”
This amendment was subsequently added to the resolution

that recommends postponement
of recruiting until a “clear and
uniform policy has been established” concerning “unlawful interference with the Selectiwe
Service law” by students. This
resolution had been defeated by
the executive committee before
the meeting.

'Perilous' debate
President Meyerson,

chairman of the Senate, revealed his
support of the other resolution,
terming the debate “as perilous

$300 from students alone, plan to

take at least $200 to support one

a school spokesman announced Saturday.
He succeeds Acting President Houston T. Robison who has served
since the resignation of Dr. Paul T. Bulger last year.
WASHINGTON
Vice-President Hubert H. Humphrey said today
the “search for peace in Vietnam" should not be an issue of conflict
in the 1968 presidential campaign.
“We must cooperate with the president to permit him to use
whatever diplomacy we have to obtain negotiations," Humphrey said.
“Some of this argument has not been very helpful.”
Humphrey conceded the Johnson administration “may have overspoken ourselves when we said we would go anytime, anywhere”
to talk peace with the Communists.
WASHINGTON
The last campaign Martin Luther King Jr.,
mapped for his followers began today with about a hundred poor
people petitioning federal officials for massive assistance programs.
The Rev. Ralph Abernathy, who succeeded the late Dr. King as
head of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, led delegates
from around the country in opening three days of talks with Cabinet
members and other government leaders.
The conferences are the initial phase of next month’s poor people’s
march on Washington, organized by King, to demand “mammoth"
new federal efforts to provide jobs, housing and guaranteed incomes
to the needy.

The
possibilities for the black community, as well as for this
University. President Meyerson’s proposal announced Monday includes several items which are creative diversions
from the established archaic liberal formulas for helping

which must be begun on a massive scale by all colleges an
universities, as well as the notoriously sluggish and oppressive local governments, in order to avoid guerilla warfare
in this nation’s ghettos.
Some preliminary suggestions:
The WBFO “satellite studio” will only be viewed
as an organ of propaganda, unless it is used to broadcast
the mood of the black community to the entire community,
and unless significant training programs are established to
incorporate blacks into the operation. To be effective, it
must develop into a black voice, free from the advertising
compromises popular “soul” stations must make.
Hopefully the “small business marketing assistance
program” is to have the main purpose of building up black
power in the economic sphere. White-owned businesses
in the ghetto milk the desire and,„wealth of the black community and are major symbols of frustration and oppression.
The involvement of University faculty in the Model
Cities Program, as well as the proposed involvement of the
entire Policy Sciences graduate program in other areas,
must serve as an example of the kind of orientation every
segment of the University must have, especially in the
physical and health sciences, in addition to the social
sciences.
The 4:4:3 ratio on the committee of students, faculty, and administrators is an example of the type of community decision-making that must become standard for all segments of the University. A grave error could be made in
the appointment stage if the four student representatives
are not black. Failure to appoint black students could mean
that the program will lose its most valuable asset in the
black community-respect, and it may, in fact, be viewed
as merely another token gesture of white paternalism.

Earlier this year four congressmen paid a visit

to Vietnam while the Tet offensive was in progress.
In an interview at the time, the lawgivers ex-

pressed themselves as extremely optimistic about
the favorable outcome of the fighting and said the
damage did not appear as bad as reports had in-

dicated.

is still being evaluated, and debated, there is no

To the Editor:
How does it look for this summer? Will our
government meet the rightful demands of impoverished Americans? The Poor People’s Campaign
is a last pre-summer effort to avoid destruction and
death.
Congress is afraid to call for a tax increase in
an election year. Richard Nixon has said that our
country’s economic situation “rules out any vast
new outpouring of federal funds into the cities this
year,” Admiral Rickover is convincing Congress
that the U.S. needs faster, more powerful nuclear
weasubmarines. The U.S. is still testing nuclear spent
pons out west. Millions of dollars are being
on new “riot control” training and equipment. And
we’re still racing Russia to the moon. The war,
contrary to popular delusion, is still costing lives
and money, and will continue to do so.
Our government needs a new list of priorities.

sible adult citizens.
Certainly the faculty is justified in wanting to add the
influence of the name of this University to its views on
national politics, but in being concerned about democracy
on the national level, they are being hypocritical. They ignore the oligarchic nature of the government at this University, and in most cases doggedly resist attempts to institute
the reforms right here at home that they want for the nation
at large.
This, of course, is not too surprising It even has a
name; the liberal syndrome.
Just as liberal politics in this country have for years
advocated the institution of broad social reforms while
maintaining a racist society, university professors have been
able to advocate democracy while maintaining an authoritative classroom.
It seems that student participation in the decisionmaking process at this University is as hard for some people
to accept as a black family moving in next door.
Students are not asking to “take-over” the University,
as some faculty members apparently fear. They are merely asking for a responsible, effective, and equal voice in the
affairs of this community. Significant breakthroughs have
already occurred in the curriculum planning of several departments, but until the “official” voice of this University
includes undergraduate and graduate students as well as
faculty, a large segment of the community will remain disenfranchised.
Granted, it will be a long and difficult path to a genuine
University polity, but the time to begin is now.
And there is perhaps no better issue to begin with
than the question of military recruiters. This is a matter
which directly affects every male student at this University,
and one which should not be decided without significant
student participation in making a decision.

tickets.

The congressmen, all of whom

live in either
California or Hawaii, noted that they do quite a
bit of air traveling themselves.
If congressmen are able to appraise the situation in Vietnam by flying over Saigon, we may assume they can do the same thing at home.
Cross-country flights help them determine what
is going on in America, and to pass laws accordingly.

Therefore, it is very much to the nation's advantage to keep them occupied with free drinks and
movies en route.
Most airline passengers agree that a couple of
drinks are a great aid in aerial observation. Properly stoked, they can see things they might otherwise miss.
And with movies to help sharpen his eyesight
a congressman can go fact-finding at 35,000 feet

To the Editor;

Indeed much praise to the Anonym, which more
than deserves any and all acclaim that can be given
it. One can only add that it is refreshing upon assiduous inspection of both this periodical and the

Joe McCarthy again?
To tho Editor:

The news is sweeping the campus! There is at
least one card carrying C.I.A. agent in the Psychology Department. And one in the History Department, too. Joe McCarthy must be doing headstands in his grave! If you change a word or two.
and say “Communist,” instead of “CIA,” it sounds
like the hunts of the early 1950s. But then I suppose that all groups sound the same when they
spout this kind of talk.
Personally, I resent the assault on my senses
that happens each time I 'enter Norton these days.
My ears are violated by the loud squawking, my
eyes by the unslightly strips of butcher paper, and
my intelligence is offended by the literature that
people who LOOK intelligent try to stuff in my
hands.
The ugly girl that lives across the street walked
by this morning mumbling “Double, double, toil and
trouble, fire burn ...” Do you suppose she could
be trying to recruit me for the CIA?

“Convinced of the purity of their own motives and the

rottenness of ‘the system’ today’s campus militants seek to

impose their views upon the universities they attend and the
societies in which they live, even if this means ignoring or
violating the rights of others or preventing universities from
going about their normal educational and research activities.
In some countries and some situations such tactics and anger
are understandable. Faced by totalitarian regimes whose
power rests on coerced obedience, students in such countries
as Germany and Spain can point to the lack of avenues for
peaceful, democratic change as justifications for revolutionary violence.”

last column. After some recent experiences I’ve had
on this campus, I am rapidly discovering that either
I am extremely bad at making myself understood, or
I am very wrong.
Because of the energies I have put into things in
the past, I will try again. So, as a beginning, let us
go to the Faculty Senate meeting held last Thursday. The Faculty Senate met first to discuss whether
or not to rescind the condemnation of the Vietnam
War made at the previous meeting. They then were
to discuss whether or not to allow military recruitment “to continue” on this campus, in light of, or
rather, in spite of, Lewis B. Hershey.
The first part of the day ended by a decision
of the Senate not to rescind its previous decision.
Then the second part of the day began. Meyerson
called the meeting to order add asked Horaberger
to read the executive council’s recommendation.
The floor was then opened for discussion. It was apparent to me at that point that Meyerson was not
going to ask students to speak at the meeting—at
least not without being pushed. I had prepared a
speech and had secured Rick Schwab's permission
to represent the students if Meyerson would recognize such a representative.
So I spoke with my friends Friedenberg and
Jackson and after some deliberation, Meyerson magnanimously gave the representative of the undergraduates and the representative of the graduate
students five minutes each.
So in five minutes, I was to speak for and represent some nine or ten thousand students. Well,
naturally, I didn’t feel much like representing that
many people in five minutes or in five years, so I
just spoke about what I felt was important.
Perhaps, some of you are unsure as to why
students either should speak or should have a right
to speak at a Faculty Senate meeting. The reason
is simple, or at least I thought it was until Thursday. When the Faculty Senate makes decisions about
the University, it makes them for the University.
The faculty, either through default or through some
deviously conceived plan, is the only body on campus which the President of this University listens to.
No one on this campus has yet questioned precisely why the faculty makes such decisions. It is
certainly time to do so now. Mr. Meyerson never
attends Student Senate meetings. If the Faculty
Senate tells the U.S. Army not to come on campus,
they will not. If the Student Senate does the same
thing, no one listens. Thus if students are not allowed to speak at the meetings of the Faculty Senate, they are not allowed to speak at the only meeting in which decisions are reached that mean any-

determination and non-interference in the internal
affairs of other nations from the U.S.A., U.S.S.R.,
U.N. or any other country. But many contemporary
world problems are, in fact, consequences of such
direct or indirect interferences. The editorial’s appeal is an appeal made also by a heroic people who
were enslaved on April 21, 1967 by a group of colonels because of the U.S. government’s interference
in the affairs of the Greek people. The tanks they
used to grab the political power and abolish sacred
traditions of democracy and freedom were tanks
given to Greece by the U.S. government.
The coup was successful because they used a
blueprint of counterinsurgency developed and made
available to them by the U.S. government. Their
ability to sustain an unprecedented terror and
police state is due only to our government’s continued support—economic, military and political.
Does D. L. mean that once we have meddled into
the internal affairs of other countries and have
achieved our objectives we must not change our
minds? If yes, let it be so stated.
Although I will respect D. L.’s political views,
I
will disagree and so will all other free American
citizens who cherish political freedom and human
dignity and who will not tolerate their violation by
anyone let alone our own elected political officials.
Minimum decency as responsible citizens compels us
to at least undo the wrongs we do to other people.

Hopes to arouse the apathetic mass
To Hio Editor:
This is an open letter to Phil Henry, chairman
of the Union house committee.
This letter is to express my dismay at the events
that took place in Norton Hall on April 25, 1968.
Being with you several times during the morning
and up until the time your decision was made, I
know what a difficult situation you were in. I can
not, however, state that 1 agree with the action
that was taken. In my estimation, the signs displayed in the lobby of Norton Hall were in complete
violation of the Norton House rules and should
have been removed immediately. I realize the implications of possible violence that might have resulted from such a decision, but I feel strongly that
some line must be drawn that no student, no faculty, and no administrator should be allowed to cross.
Without an established system of rules and conduct,
the threat of anarchy would loom large over our
campus.

tempted to handle the circumstances.
It is my hope that out of the events of Thursday the 25, the so-called apathetic student might
realize exactly the strength on this campus of a few
voices. It is a disaster to this University that a fraction of the total student population be allowed to
tread on the rights of the majority. It is with the
hope of arousing the apathetic mass that I will attempt to do everything in my power to see that the
true majority voice of the students is returned once
again to this campus. I hope that in the course of
my actions I will be able to count on your support.

GSA opposed to mandatory fees
To Hi* Editor:
I am responding to your editorial “Still Some
Problems” (26 April 1968) and clarifying some
information contined in a front page report of
that same issue, viz-a-viz mandatory student activity
fees.
First the clarification. The Graduate Student
Association is unconditionally opposed to mandatory
student activity fees. It is an economically painful
position to take and has meant a severe reduction
of incoming revenue for the GSA this year, and
maybe for some years to come. Nevertheless, the
preservation of libertarian principles—violently contravened by an enforced taxation such as a mandatory activity fee—is well worth the dollars and
cents loss. Moreover, our constituency will either
vountarily support us because of our proven usefulness to them, or we will disappear because we
deserve to or because the graduate students deserve
to lose their political arm due to their own apathy.
Hie graduate students have the intellectual
capacity to decide this and ought to have the freedom of choice to do so. Enforced taxation denies
them this freedom. On behalf of the graduate stu-

will
represent this policy to Chancellor Gould, President
Meyerson and all other interested parties.
The above remarks suggest the nature of my
response to your editorial. Let me be explicit.
Your praise of the University Trustees’ decision to
reinstate the mechanism of mandatory student
activity fees is wrongheaded. Undergraduates ought
to have the same freedom of choice that the GSA
will insist on preserving for graduate students.
Finally, your suggestion that the GSA be incorporated into the polity is gratuitous. Our present
status allows us the political mobility necessary to
our function of serving graduate students. It
provides us every kind of opportunity to work in
concert with the Student Association and we never
miss these opportunities. This arrangement may
decrease our financial resources, but it in no way
diminishes our human resources. In the end this
is our most important asset.

To the Editor:

Now that the issue of Vietnam is beginning to
take a back seat to civil rights, it is time to talk
about an issue that is threatening the life-line of
democracy in the United States. Draft resistance
has long been connected with the crisis in Vietnam.
Perhaps at the time it should have been, but today
we are facing the infancy of its product—The Professional Military.
Since 1945, the military has been attempting to
make itself professional. It has attempted this
because it does not desire to be sensitive to civilian
or political fluctuations of interest and apathy. In
the last four years, it has made tremendous strides
to divorce itself due to draft resistance. The most
important advance has been in giving the enlisted
man the pay and benefits equivalent to any civilian
counterpart.
Let me take, an example, the minimal grade,
enlisted professional (an E-4). He is now earning
(with recent Congressional approval) a total of
$7000 to $8000, not all of which is taxable; he has
been provided with his own home, with all utilities
and maintenance necessary provided; and he has
virtually free medical care (his next child will cost

$50 in hospital expenses with the best civilian professional care provided).
The picture I am painting looks like this: Our
officers, as all military officers, are aggressive men.
In the past, the safeguard on our society has always
been that we could keep the generals in check
merely by the fact that the enliSted men were
civilians looking forward to a civilian world. MacArlhur told Truman he was going to bomb China;
Truman removed MacArthur. I strongly suggest
been replaced
that President Truman would have
by a President MacArthur if the Professional Military had existed in maturity. After all, why should
a man care about civilian rights if from birth to
death everything is provided for him?
As to Victnams, the professional is not now
dying there. The draftee is dying as he guards the
base where the professional lives and doesn’t pay
taxes. In the future, a professional military could
use nuclear weapons without concern for civilian
reservations, for if draft resistance continues,
Congress will surely appropriate to it a hard core
strength it has never known in this country before.

Disapproves of actions by 'kiddies'
To tho Editor:
On walking through Norton

Hall, I was struck
by the fact of being surrounded by a gross perversion of the democratic theme. The kiddies had resorted to classic right wing methods (i.e., fascist):
name-calling, accusation without substantive evidence of charges, etc. It occurred to me that the University is a marvelously tolerant place, despite its
many, many shotrcomings.
Kiddies, only in a university with an open campus policy could you level such gross tactics without
suffering consequences. Out there in the real world,
of which you have no cognizance, you would be sued
for libel and slander.
If your charges are true, prove them.
Kiddies, you perpetuate hatred; in the name of
justice and decency, you subvert the privacy and
rights of others.
And, down the Union corridor, was a quiet reminder of that which is right, and pleads for morality and justice: the SCLC table, asking for your
monetary and spiritual support of the only tactic
that will ultimately set our country right—non-violent protest against a violent society.

Dr. Martin Luther King had a relevant theme
and a relevant strategy to support that theme—it
was simple, basic and above all, honest and courageous.
You, kiddies, are neither honest, courageous nor
relevant—you scream at people who will cajole you
and cuddle you from the reality of the world. So
keep screaming at invisible shadows, if it boosts
your egos.

Let SCLC members and others fight the real battle that persists in our society, people who are willing to confront society at grass-roots level and possibly get their skulls flattened in the process.
To all people, black, white and any other color
in the spectrum of human pigmentation, I say this:
as an administrator (however lowly-stationed in the
power structure), a graduate student and above all,
as a human being, I pledge any and all support
within my capabilities to the cause of SCLC and
nonviolent protest to end injustice in our country.
You may call me on that pledge at any time, at
831-3724.

Maharishi to appear in Buffalo

IRC candidates state views; voting
to take place today and tomorrow

by Joseph Fernbaeher
Spectrum

Staff

Reporter

Buffalo will have an opportunity to see and hear the
world celebrated Maharishi
Mahesh Yogi in a special concert at Memorial Auditorium
at 8 p.m., May 9, with five
of his well-known disciples,
the Beach Boys.
In what might be the most un-

presidency of the Inter-Residence Council in elections scheduled today and tomorrow.

Resident students will cast paper ballots for
the four officer positions of the Council.
Voting is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and
4 to 6:30 p.m. both days.
Election booths are located on the first floor
of Tower and Goodyear Halls and in the Allenhurst
Bus Lounge in Goodyear.
Only undergraduates living in the dormitories
and Allenhurst are eligible to vote. This includes
students anticipating to move off campus next year.
A validated I.D. card must be presented to the election official.
Three candidates are competing for the vicepresidency; Mark Jacobson, Philip Leaf and Lynn
Watson.

Positions of secretary and treasurer have only
one contender each. Marian Hoffman, candidate for
secretary, and Michael Clark, candidate for treasurer, will run unopposed.

Presidential candidates

Mr. Gamba had served as an IRC representative
his sophomore year, and IRC vice-president this
year. He was a member of the Institute of electronic engineers, Phi Theta Kappa—the national
honor society, the Student Association ad-hoc committee for the development of residential college
and the IRC constitutional revision committee.
He said;
“The future of life in the residence halls depends on the constant development of their potential as programming facilitators toward the goal of
a total residential community.
“With this in mind, next year’s activities should
include extensive social, cultural and academic
events on a regular basis.
“As president, I perceive my role as one of total

“My aim is to promote a wider interest in IRC

“This year I have been very active in the IRC in

“This year I was an IRC representative from

member of IRC food committee, member of IRC
constitutional revision committee, member of Student Association constitutional revision committee,
member of Student Association president’s brainstorming group, member of the Faculty Student
Association land use committee, and chairman of
the fraternity’s constitutional committee.
“The knowledge gained through participating in
these activities will be put to good use if I am
elected Vice President. For example, the IRC
must set up a way to better communicate with the
residents. The re-establishment of the IRC newsletter would be an excellent idea. Many and varied
social, cultural and academic activities should be
set up on a regular basis.
“Students must be informed that there is ample
funds available to finance worthwhile projects.
Students and the residence Hall Councils should
be encouraged to take a more active role in governing their respective residence halls and in organizing activities.”

tier statement said:
The Inter-Residence Council was originally established to promote “cooperation and closer relations among resident students and their governing
bodies.” I’d like to see a more meaningful relationship between the resident students and the IRC.
“I feel that this communication can be best
attained through the vice-presidency. I see the office of vice-president as one of a coordinator of all
committees as well as the main link between the
House Councils and the Inter-Residence Council.
I’d like the opportunity to be the person to strengthen this vital link.

usual concerts in the history of
show biz, the Maharishi and his
disciples for the evening, the
Beach Boys, plan to reach audiences all over the nation with
their movement based on theories
of love and peace.
The Maharishi says that if he
can reach one-tenth of the world’s
population, wars will be an impossibility for centuries to come.
The Maharishi first gained the
attention of the world by becoming the teacher or guru of the
Beatles. His philosophy of transcendental meditation has spread
across the world like wildfire.
It is a philosophy based on eternal
love and internal peace of mind.
His first appearances have been
acclaimed in more than 25 countries throughout the free world,
and his appearance in New York’s
Madison Square Garden (in which
he lost over $2000, so some
sources have said that are trying
to refute the claims that the
Maharishi is out for a quick
buck) has resulted in more than
2500 letters a week urging him
to visit other American cities.

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Blessings of peace and love
will be brought to Buffalo.
The Beach Boys were first introduced to the Maharishi after a
December UNICEF concert in
Paris by their friends, John Lennon and George Harrison, Soon
after this, they were initiated
into his Spiritual Regeneration
Movement. Mike Love, senior
member of the group, then went
on to join the Maharishi at his
retreat in India for a five-week
period.

that Gordon Lightfoot is in the
cover of one of the latest Go

that much. Could it be that pop
music tastes are swinging again?
(Note that Simon and Garfunkel
and the Irish Rovers are hardly
psychedelic.)

Effective strings
The album is excelelnt. But
then this reviewer has been a
confirmed Lightfoot fan since before the first album came out.
The tightrope walk between folk
and country and western still
goes on, and to confuse the issue still further, he has added
strings in significant and higly
effective spots. I found “Black
Day in July” and “Does Your
Mother Know” to be the two
songs I liked best. “Day” is a
song about the Detroit riots. He
is the first person I know to do
anything at all on the subject
and the result is a notable success. “Does Your Mother Know”
is another of his drifter songs,
this time about a girl, and it
ranks with "Early Morning Rain.”
The other ten songs on the album are probably equally as
strong. For social and psychological reasons I liked these best.
Excellent record.

As I said, I am not totally sure
that you should buy it, but it
should be listened to, and carefully. Something lurks within
this album which I personally do
not yet fully comprehend. This
may be part of its attraction, but
as is not unusual in the Steese
house, this one has not yet been
off the stack since we brought it
home, and everylime I hear it
something else appears. This is
not an album for everybody.
Some are going to dislike it; for
myself I think it is good now.
In a month I could well think it
either mediocre, or great. I tend
to suspect the latter.

Murky, enigmatic
The second selection is an album entitled “Eli and the Thirteenth Confession” by Laura
Nyro on Columbia (CS 9626). I
can not in good conscience urge
you to rush right out and buy
this record. It is a strange,
somewhat murky and enigmatic
album. She is a New York girl,

Workshop

UNIVERSITY PLAZA

Under the direction of Miss Billie Kirpich, the

University Dance Workshop will perform May 3
and 4 in Baird Hall. The dance concert is inspired
by the works of Shakespeare and Ferlinghetti.

Special to the Spectrum
A program of Shakespeare,
Sean O’Casey and Lawrence Ferlinghetti will provide the inspiration for the dance concert to be
given at State University of Buffalo May 3 and 4 at 8:30 p.m. in
Baird Hall.
The University Dance Workshop, under the direction of Miss
Billie Kirpich, will perform numbers based on works by O’Casey
and Ferlinghetti.
And, in a
special guest appearance, the New
Dance Group of Canada will per-

form a work called “Momentum,”
based on Shakespeare’s MaeBeth.
The concert, produced by Zella
Caple, dance instructor at D’Youvilel College, is sponsored by the
Women’s Physical Education Department and the Faculty of Arts
and Letters at the University.
“The literary flavor of the evening was really coincidental,” explained Miss Kirpich, who choreographed the numbers to be performed by the workshop. “The
Workshop’s pieces are the result

of my own long-time interest in
the dance possibilities of the two
works (“Star Jazzer,” an O’Casey
short story, and “The Soldiers of

No Country,” a Ferlinghetti play.”

Theatre review

The Knight of the Burning Pestle'
ulous (especially for Baird!) Gothic set make this play a good deal
better drama than it deserves.

by Robin Harniman
th»

Special fo

Spectrum

In Baird Hall this past weekend
there took place a dramatic work
which I call Elizabethan Pirandello; Instead of characters coming
into the theater looking for a
play in which to live, you get
“real people” who stick themselves into a real play. It’s all
very darling and Romantic.

Ingenuously filthy

As for the acting, Edward Blair
is ingenuously filthy as the
Knight who vows to aid defenseless women “as long as life and
pestle last.” Helene Friedman and
Piero Hadjikakou (the peasants,
George and Nell) excell in their
roles, although this reviewer
would like to see them be allowed
to diversify their talents into
more hefty roles than the play
offers.
Joyce Laffell and James Bron
are endearing and contemporary
in the roles of the young lovers,
even if they don’t reach any great
heights or depths of character.

The play, “The Knight of the
Burning Pestle,” is not “great
art,” but a little good dirty fun
never hurt anybody.
Yeah, the play is dirty. Three

guesses what the knight’s burning

pestle is.

Guest director Eli Ask has updated the tone of this dear farce,
and his intent is clear; he definitely avoids profundity and
leans toward fun and life. This
outlook, enhanced by Esther

Give your
contact lenses
a bath
tonight
In order to keep your contact lenses as
comfortable and convenient as they were
meant to be, you have to take care of
them. But until now you needed two or
more separate solutions to properly
prepare and maintain your contacts. Not
with Lensine. Lensine is the one lens
solution for complete contact lens care.

Cleaning your contacts with Lensine
retards the buildup of foreign deposits on
the lenses. And soaking your contacts in
Lensine overnight assures you of proper
lens hygiene. You get a free soaking case
on the bottom of every bottle of Lensine.

It has been demonstrated that

improper

storage between wearlngs may result in
the growth of bacteria on the lenses.
This is a sure cause of eye irritation and
in some cases can endanger your vision.
Bacteria cannot grow in Lensine which is
sterile, self-sanitizing, and antiseptic.
Just a drop or two of Lensine, before you
insert your lens, coats and lubricates it
allowing the lens to float more freely in
the eye's fluids. That’s because
Lensine is an "isotonic" solution,
which means that it blends with
the natural fluids of the eye.

Duchesne's president. Sister Jeanette Kimball, announced the closure of the

The increased cost of operation and the decreased number of students proved
to be the disastrous combination. Duchesne could not hire the faculty, expand the
curriculum and construct the buildings necessary to increase enrollment to the
minimum required for operation.
"Duchesne College fell victim to the financial crisis that is facing every private indepedent college in the nation," said Sister Kimball. "Private colleges with

Sunday Night

Simon and Garfunkels
latest albun
by Joseph Fernbacher
StaW

Spectrum

Reporter

Well, it seems that S.&amp;G. have
done it again. Their latest album, “Bookends,” will no doubt
reach the heights of popularity
that their two previous Ip’s
“Sounds of Silence” and “Parsley,
Sage, Rosemary
acquired.

&amp;

Thyme,” have

Though not as great or poetic

as “Parsley, Sage, Rosemary
Thyme,” this album is another ala

&amp;

Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel.
As with many of the albums being
injected into the musical markets,
“Bookends" comes complete with
lyrics on the back and a “special
bonus full-color poster included”
inside. S.&amp;G. appeal to genuine
folk enthusiasts with their poetic
lyrics and the rock or folkrock
fans with their use of extremely
catchy background music. This
has proven to be the surefire combination as far as the monetary
aspects of their art go.

Psychedelic-folk
To launch this musical journey,
S.4G. give us a “cute” little instrumental entitled “Bookends
Theme.” It’s a good tune but
can’t even begin to compare with
Paul Simon’s instrumental version of “Anji” on “Sounds of Silence.” From here the first stop
is a tune called “Save the Life
of my Child” which is a successful marriage of “psychedelic” and
“folk” music. It is a tune that attempts to show how the people of
this society are blood-thirsty and
cold towards another’s anguish
and death. It tells of a boy who
is out on the ledge of a building
ready to jump. A crowd gathers
in hopes of seeing him jump.
Night falls and “excitement kissed
the erowd/And made them wild/
. . . When the spotlight hit the
boy/The crowd began to cheer/
He flew away .
.

.

it is to become old and unwanted.
The other cut is the song called
“Old Friends" which is a sad
song about how fast time flies
and one becomes old, and in most
cases, an unwanted member of
society.

Also on the Ip is a groovy tune
from that fabulous movie “The
Graduate” which received less
recognition than it should have
at the Academy Award ceremonies—“Mrs. Robinson."

Traditionally, the end of the school year is marked by a time of

assessment, a time to contemplate the occurrences of the past eight
months, to assay the accomplishments, the failures and the problems

that need to be solved in the future. It is altogether fitting and proper,
therefore, to look at the situation that faces the athletic department

Future hopes look good as spring

Reporter

In spring a young man’s fancy turns to thoughts
of springtime. However, for a certain group of
young men, their thoughts turn to “Hit, Hustle
and Heads-up,” the slogan for State University of

Buffalo head football coach “Doc” Urich in his
spring football practice.
For the past several weeks these athletes have
been working and sweating behind Clark Gym in
hopes of attaining a starting position on the 19681969 Bull football team.

Injuries take toll
Injuries have already taken their toll on several key men on next year’s squad.
Among the walking wounded are: Gary Grubbs,
1967’s starting defensive halfback, suffering
strained ligaments in his knee; Barney Woodward,
a possible reserve fullback, hospitalized with a
cracked breastbone, and All-East linebacker Mike
Luzny and defensive end Prentis Henley have stood
on the sidelines with knee injuries.

Other players excused from practice this spring
are Ed Lowe, Mick Murtha, and Ken Rutkowski.
All three are playing on head coach Bill Monkarsh’s
baseball team.

However, Murtha has been put on the disabled
list. He sustained a shoulder (passing arm) injury during one of the practice sessions just prior

to

the

season opener.

The 1968-1969 version of the football Bulls looks
strong in most departments. An outlook on next
year’s team might look like this:
Offensive ends: This position has outstanding
depth. Split end Dick Ashley returns to the lineup after a year’s layoff due to an injury suffered
last fall in the last scrimmage game before the season started.

learn physician Dr. Edmund Gicewic performed surgery on Ashley’s knee and the knee has
responded quite well.
Spring scrimmages have
proved that Dick has made a complete
recovery as
he has returned to his record-breaking form of the
1966-67 season.
Also back again are the first two tight ends
Paul Lang and Eerry Endress. Ed Lowe returns
m the fall to back up the split end position.

Quarterbacks: For the past two seasons Dennis
Mason has been Mick Murtha’s back-up
man. Since
Murtha has been on the baseball team,

freshman Joe Zelmanski.

The fullback slot could be a problem for Urich
a new replacement for Lee Jones will be difficult to find. Jones was not only a good running
back for those short yards up the middle, but also
an excellent blocking back. This spring practice
should bring up a good starting fullback.

as

The prospects are not as dim as they seem to
be, however. Leading the pack is Gary Chapp, a
strong runner and good blocker. Freshman Joe
Hudson, a powerful runner with surprising quickness and speed for his size, returns after a short
leave of absence. Freshmen Barney Woodward and
John Zeek could help the Bulls out in this position.
Defensive line: Veteran ends John Przybcien,
Bob Kovey and Tom Murphy return and should
continue to improve, Prentis Henley and freshman
Tom Vigreau are also in the running for starting
berths.
The tackle slots are capably filled by Joe Ricelli
and Danny Walgate. Walgate is a strong contender
for AM-East honors next season. Russ Beck and
Chuck Forness should provide depth here.
Linebackers: Linebacking should be excellent.
All-East as a sophomore last season, Mike Luzny
will be bidding for All-American honors next season. Luzny blocked four punts, intercepted one
pass, and recovered several vital fumbles by the
opponents last season. Lettenmen Don Sabo, Jim
Mosher, Dave Riehner and John Lupienski return
and are joined by outstanding freshman Ed Kershaw.

Defensive backs: This is probably the Bulls’
weakest spot on the whole team. Returning to the
halfback slot will be lettermen Gary Grubbs and
Dan Martin. Also returning will be safetyman Dick
Horn.

The merger of the University into the State system in 1962 had
ramifications that are stall being felt and most likely will continue
to be felt in this academic community for an untold number of years.
One of the departments affected of course was the athletic department.

Before the merger, the athletic department had

of the athletic

The problem, to put it in a very elementary form, was that the
State University of Buffalo had an established athletic program with
definite aims for the future, whereas the other State University
centers at Albany, Binghamton, and Stony Brook didn't have any
athletic programs to speak of and were consequently just starting
to develop them. The question was whether the State would deemphasize the athletic program at Buffalo in order that it would
be on an equal level with the other university centers which were
just starting out with their athletic departments or would the State
allow Buffalo to leave the other university centers behind and go
big-time as an independent.
The State give its tacit approval for the latter course of action,
but it has erected roadblocks from time to time to give the athletic
department fits, and cause it to take corrective action to overcome
the problems.
A case in point was a recent decision this year in which the
Trustees of the State University of New York stated that “no agency
of the University shall provide or honor subsidies based primarily on
a student’s athletic ability.” This was a direct slap in the face in the
State University of Buffalo’s grant-in-aid practice. To overcome this
obstacle, an Intercollegiate Athletics Campaign drive has started to
raise $150,000 to be used primarly as a source for grants-in-add for
athletes.

But by far the most pressing problem facing the athletic department is the situation concerning voluntary athletic fees. This year
was the first time that this was put into effect and the result was
what was expected. The athletic department wasn’t sure how much it
would receive, so an economy squeeze was placed on its activities,
especially those that accrued little or no profit.
Chancellor Gould, in a recent statement, said that he will ask
the University Trustees to reinstate mandatory fees. This seems to
be the answer to the athletic department’s prayers. However, it will
be left to the individual campus student governments to decide what
fees, if any, are to be made mandatory. This means that there could
be a combination of mandatory student activities fees and voluntary
athletic fees, a prospect that very possiibly could be adopted on this

campus.

Needless to say the athletic department wants mandatory athletic

However, defensive backfield coach Bob Deming
has been wokring on freshmen Tom Elliot, Len
Nixon, Karl Zalor and transfer student (from Syracuse) Nick Kish for replacements.
Kish was tried out with the offensive backfield
but was switched to defense because of his experience.

If the defensive secondary can come through for
the Bulls, Buffalo could be the team to watch next
year as they pile on win after win.
Offensive line: Returning tackles Scott Clark

good sophomore years. Pushing behind them will

Kicking; Paul Jack returns to do the punting
as he did last season. Jack did quite well under
the new kicking rule as he kicked for an average
of 34.6 yards. In this new rule, the punter kicks
for coverage and not for as much distance as before.
Bob Embow will again handle the placekicking
chores. Embow already holds State University of
Buffalo records for most field goals in a season (6)
and most field goals in a career (7).
With Mason and possibly Murtha throwing and
Ashley back in the Bulls’ starting line-up to take
some of the pressure off Drankoski, the State University of Buffalo Bulls should be able to score
from any angle on the field. The running attack
will again be excellent if the offensive line is stabilized and a blocking fullback is found.
The defensive front four appears tough while
linebacking should be outstanding. If the defensive
backfield can jell, the Bulls should have a 7-3
season or even better.

Demonstrators beaten 9 arrested
NEW YORK—Police using only their

fights between pro- and anti-war elements
in Central Park where an estimated 60,000
persons gathered to protest the Vietnam
War.

Trustees demand discipline
NEW YORK—Trustees at protest-wracked Columbia University ordered President
Grayson Kirk to maintain “ultimate disciplinary power” over rebellious students.
In a statement, the trustees also opposed the granting of amnesty to demonstrators—one of the chief demands of
students in their five-day-old sit-in.
William E. Petersen, chairman of the
trustees, issued the statement, saying the
board members told Kirk they “wholeheartedly support” the administration position that no amnesty should be given
the student protestors.
The demontsrators have taken over five
university buildings to dramatize their demands that Columbia halt construction of
a gymnasium in Harlem’s Morningside
Park and end lies with the Institute for
Defense Analysis.
The trustees’ statement may conflict
with faculty proposals that a permanent
faculty-student-administration panel be
established on discipline.
The trustees authorized Kirk “to lake
all further steps which he may deem

or advisable to enable the university to resume its normal activities.”
Negro and Puerto Rican demonstrators
marched to the Columbia campus Saturday in support of the students.

necessary

The marchers rallied in front of Hamil-

ton Hall, one of the buildings taken over
by rebellious students last Tuesday, before
continuing to Central Park to participate
in an antiwar demonstration.
William Epton of the Harlem Progressive Labor Movement, told the group the

university followed a “racist policy.” He

said Harlem residents "salute all those
black and white students who have stood
in solidarity with the community in Harlem.”
The Columbia rebels, about 500 in number. took over the building of the school
gymnasium in the park. They charged it
would deprive neighborhood residents of
a recreation area.
Construction of the building has been
halted because of the dispute. Columbia
officials said the gymnasium will have faciltes for use by Harlem resdents.

Australia, and Capetown, before settling in Buffalo, Mr. Okolo explains that
one of the reasons his people are hated
in their own land is simply because “we
work hard."
by Oqbujuakpa J.J. Okolo
During the Kano riot of 1945 and the
election disorders of 1963, many Biafran
civilians in the North were either killed,
crippled or imprisoned. In 1966, more than
30,000 innocent Biafran citiens lost their
lives in a series of massacres. They were
slaughtered in parks, airports, marketplaces, schools, churches, and hospitals.
Despite this, the Biafran leaders warned
their people to refrain from retaliating.
The Biafrans had always been a kind
of political stabilizer in the country. Prior
to 1960, when Northern Nigeria threatened
to secede from the Federation, Dr. Azikiwe, a Biafran, had managed to keep
the country together without bloodshed.
Face extermination
Despite increased terrorism, especially
in northern Nigeria, Biafrans remained
in their own area in southern Nigeria,
where they faced extermination.
At Aburi, Ghana, the Nigerian government reluctantly agreed to the demands of
Odumegwu Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, the
Biafran leader, to rehabilitate the thousands of refugees who had fled from all
parts of Nigeria and to pay compensation
to those who lost their property.
Outside Ghana the agreement was never
honored.
Nigeria was divided into 12 states.
Northern Nigeria, comprising three-fourths
of Nigerian territory and 29 million people, was split into six states. Biafra, which
occupies about one-tenth of the land of
Nigeria, with population of 8 million, was
split into three states.
led
This effectively split up Biafra and
to her decision on May 30, 1967, to declare
her independence from the Nigerian state.
In a recent letter to the New York
Times, a Nigerian described Tanzania’s
recognition of Biafra as “unfortunate, illtimed, and divisive, because Biafra no
longer exists as a country , . . and it
will stiffen Biafra’s suicidal resolve.”
This statement reveals the feelings that
contributed, more than anything else, to
rope,

the present social hemorrhage that bed
Biafra was regarded as a foreign country
within the framework of Nigeria. Biafrans
were foreigners in their own country
born to be free but everywhere in chains.
They were discriminated against in civil
appointment and scholarship awards.
Nigeria had contributed to the stability
of Tanganyika before its union with
Zanzibar, and had played a part in the
peace-keeping force against secessionist
Katanga in the Congo, because they had
been invited by a people who were wise
enough to avoid genocide.
Lagos never invited any country or
diplomatic source to resolve her differences with wounded anr rejected Biafra,
Instead, politics was mixed, with gunpowder and peacemakers were urged to
stay aloof.
Despite warnings at the outset from
Tanzania’s Nyerere, the Pope, world journalists, and some well-meaning African
leaders that “the use of force will never
solve the crisis, but will rather make the
country more divided,” Lagos pushed herself with expensive propaganda into a
genocidal resolve.

—

Destruction planned

Nigeria had hoped to crush Biafra
“within 48 hours,” but failed.
The next date for Biafran “destruction"
was set for March 31, 1968, but reports
from Biafra may still be heard in shortwave radio.
Despite the fact that Britain contributed
to the present situation by arming Lagos,
there is no one to blame for the Balkanization of the late Nigeria but Lagos. Lagos

wants a single Nigeria by destroying an
entire people, the Biafrans.
Tanzania’s recognition of Biafra is humanitarian diplomacy aimed at bringing
Lagos back to her senses. The Organization of African Unity has not yet resolved to maintain the territorial integrity
of Nigeria Tanzania’s recognition is a

well-timed shot, which could drive
countries to the conference table.

will be able to resolve their differences, by finding a possible relationship
where both sides can still forge ahead
economically and politically, with an
agreement of opinion and a unanimity of
they

mind and purpose.
The Biafrans are fighting because their
very existence, and 'hat of every individual in Biafra, is threatened. They will
continue to fight until the last drop of
Biafran blood is shed.
Biafra fights not for expansion, but for
survival.
This is more of a moral issue than a
political principle.
Every head of state should be urged
to reconsider his conscience, and recognize
the state of Biafra.

Gould proposal

Mandatory student fees

by Richard R. Haynes
Managing Editor

Voluntary student activity lees may soon be a thing of
the past.
Samul B. Gould. State University chancellor, will ask
University Trustees to re instate mandatory fees.
It is considered virtually certain that they will do so.
But it will bo up to individual
campus student governments to
decide what foes, if any, will bo
mandatory at their schools. Student governments, as in the past,
will set the foe level on each
campus.
Chancellor Gould, in his resolution to the Trustees, says mandatory fees arc in lino with "the

"The University," he says, “desires to give its sanction and support to student activities and (lie

An expanding University admissions policy may force

104 men to find off-campus housing and 525 women to live
in triple rooms beginning in September.
The number of evictions of men from Tower may be
less, depending upon the number of men currently guaranteed housing, who may decide to move off-campus.

175 rooms in the women’s dormitories will have to be
tripled to accommodate the increased number of freshman
women.

Office, outlining the projected

By the next evening, April 19,
the possibility of any female resident student actually being forced
to move out was eliminated. The
University Housing Office stated
in a letter that women’s residence

Most were not particularly perturbed since a lottery has been
used in each of the past six years
for various purposes.

Sludents refusing to pay activity fees may not be allovyed to

Dr. Gould’s resolution, if passed, will rescind the Trustees’ ruling of Nov. 8, 1967, which made
fees voluntary.

Fees paid voluntarily have
caused havoc at many State colleges and universities. Student
organizations here faced 50%
budget cuts and publications cuts
of up to 15% this semester.

GSA fees voluntary
Chancellor Gould’s proposal apparently affects full-time undergraduates, and possibly, part-time
undergraduates. But it is understood that graduate student fees
must remain voluntary.
Student governments will not
have two exclusive choices: Fees
mandatory or voluntary.
They could opt for a combination: Mandatory student activity
fees and voluntary athletic fees,
for example.
Or new fees could be established: A mandatory publications fee;
voluntary organization and ath-

letic fees.

“The statistics are not a rebuttal and do not solve any problems,” Mr. Cornberg commented.
“Rather, they are meant to bring

“Two motivations for this informative sheet are to highlight
the problem of space and the prolem of the University community’s attitude toward the problems
of the University stores. This attitude tends to be a combination
of ignorance and apathy,” he

by the Student Strike Committee
as this University participates in
the International Student Strike.
Posters will be placed around
£ampus “exposing some administration and faculty members
whose political and financial connections are more than questionable.” Various local figures will
also come under attack.
Alex Delfini, spokesman for the
Committee, explained the reason
for the poster campaign: “We

on campus and in the world.

The day of protest today will
begin with a demonstration at the
Federal Building in support of
Bruce Beyer, who will refuse induction.
Also scheduled is a boycott of
classes for the day.
However, Mr. Delfini explained
that most of the activities will

Mr. Zavelle concluded: “It is

Thanks, Mr. Edelstein

Only on rare occasions in the life of a university does
any one student emerge as a leader possessing high ideals
tempered with pragmatism that allows for progress. Rarely
is there such a leader who has put the welfare of his fellow
student at the top of his priority list while working daily
Stewart Edelstein, this year’s Student Association President, has done a remarkable job in that office. The academic community is indebted to him for his service.
Sparked by its president, the Student Association has
entered upon several innovative courses, and success in most
cases has been attained. Success has been the hallmark of
Mr. Edelstein’s administration.
But there is another side to Stew Edelstein. Apart from
the successful administrator, there exists a warm, understanding person. After Wednesday evening’s ceremonies,
at which he passed the gavel to next year’s Student Association President, Stew said:
“It wasn’t the accomplishment of various goals that
was most important; it was the people I worked with.

State University Chancellor Gould’s announcement
Tuesday of a mechanism to allow for the rcinstitution of
mandatory fees brought elated sighs of relief from the State
University’s student leaders. Both the Stale’s final recognition of the severity of the fees problem and its ingenious
solution to it deserve to be praised.
If the State University Trustees give their expected
approval to the new mandatory fee arrangement, the problem of finding available funds for activities will have been
solved.
In their meetings to discuss the allocation of fees money,
to be held during the next few weeks, we urge the Student
Association Coordinating Council lo consider the following
proposals:

Lame-duck campus

The envisioned on-campus housing overflow and pile
up is deplorable

More than a hundred men are faced with the "choice"
of finding an apartment now or wailing until September.
The situation was first made known to students the third
week of April, no lime to he looking for an apartment.
Those who hesitate will not know until June, when the
actual number of those permitted to return will be known,
whether or not to leave Tower Given the fact that residence
men live somewhere beyond fifty , miles from Buffalo, this
summer will provide no opportunity to find a place to live
next vear.
The women are no belter off. even though they are
not being tossed out into the void Instead, they are being
crammed into the closet Because of the greater difficulty
women have finding an apartment. I Diversity officials expect to have to "expand" the women's dormitories to a
capacity limit of 175 triple rooms The living conditions
in such tripling range from poor to intolerable.
Housing this year would not even permit a resident
woman to obtain a cot for a weekend guest in a double
room. Cramming an extra bed. desk, dresser, and belongings of a third girl into these rooms could hardly make it
more comfortable.
More deplorable than the situation itself is the Russian
Roulette administrative nightmare which spawned it. It is
as hard for us to point a finger, as it is for administrators to
give reasons. What we are experiencing this spring is the
first in a series of crises of a lame-duck campus.

We are Marines that are presently stationed in

We would be grateful if there could be anyway
that you could have some girls at the college correspond with us.
We have been stationed in Vietnam for four
months, and we haven’t seen an American girl for
four and a half months. It would help out morale a

Indecent rooftop eyesores
To the Editor:

I would like to express my extreme concern
a matter which I feel is both indecent and in
terribly bad taste. I am speaking of that traditional
eyesore which comes regularly with the warm weather. Yes of course, I mean the half-clad women sunning themselves on the dormitory roofs.
These vicious harlots not only steal my attention,
but are causing my grades to fall distressingly fast.
Therefore, as head of The Committee for Abolishment Of Rooftop Eyesores, I demand action on this
frustrating situation.

A plea from Duke

By Interlandi

To the Editor:

We would like to call to your attention recent
of collective 'bargaining for non-academic employees
of Duke University, many of whom are Negro.
At the present time, non-academic employees
receive an average wage of $1.25 per hour, or $2,600
per year if they work a 40-hour week. Although they
have formed a local union, the University administration refuses to recognize it or its right of collective bargaining.
Following the death of Dr, Martin Luther King
Jr., several hundred Duke students decided that the
University must lead the Durham community toward
racial and economic justice. To support their demands for a minimum wage of $1.60 per hour and
collective bargaining, they held a continuous silent
vigil on the campus for five days. Encouraged by the
support of the students, the union, mostly Negro
in membership, called a strike for the $1.60 minimum wage and collective bargaining.
The Academic Council of the Faculty has voted
unanimously to support the demands of the students and the non-academic employees, and has
specifically recommended that collective bargaining be instituted as soon as possible. The Board of
Trustees has conceded the institution of the $1.60
minimum wage by July 1, 1969, but it has refused
to consider the issue of collective bargaining.
What started as a University endeavor has developed regional significance, since most industry
in the South has failed to recognize collective bargaining principles. Several of the Duke trustees
hold directorships in these Southern industries and
would sooner destroy the quality of the University
than allow such a significant change in labor relations to occur.
About 300 workers

are on strike at Duke University. The strike cannot continue without at least
minimal financial support for the strikers. To supply
even $10 per week per striker requires support at
the rate of $3000 per week, a rate which cannot be
maintained by Duke students and faculty alone.
This money is being collected by the Duke Vigil
Community Fund.
We have little hope of any constructive action
by the Board of Trustees, and we are concerned
about the possibility of reprisals against the striking
workers. We must appeal outside the University
and the region for support of the strikers and our
quest for collective bargaining. Those of us who
believe that non-academic employees at one of the
nation’s major universities should neither be paid
less than nationally recognized poverty level wages
nor denied their right of collective bargaining
welcome your support.

Greeks' problem, not ours
To the Editor;
Your attitude toward Greece is very democratic,
moral, good and most of all idealistic. The United
States isn’t guardian of the world. Or does it make
a difference that we feel close to Greece and not to

Vietnam?
This is a Greek internal problem and indeed it is
a hard one, but it is none of our business. As for
arrest and torture, it is terrible, but not new. After
all isn’t that what our country claimed against Stalin, Mao and other communist or totalitarian countries? Totalitarian states no matter what their official name resort to coercive force. There are many

W-w and I are laboring this semester. It has bethe calendar and drive oneself back to the world
of academics. The usual spring letdown plus a departure from Buffalo dated 3 June or so has made
us extremely vulnerable to a general malaise. Thus
if this column should be somewhat more lackluster
than usual, why assume that my sap is not running
properly yet.

Spring also seems to have brought out my testiness. Have a couple of minor suggestions that I
would like to make. If the sweet young things in the
bursar’s office are going to call me by my first
name in the interests of bettering interpersonal relations, why can’t I do the same thing? I mean fair
is fair. Let us add, therefore, the first name of the
bearer onto those little tags they wear, so that we
can return the kindness
it is supposed to be a

Arriving at my castle, I soon discovered that Sir Notchmin’s forces had been infiltrating Mistyview Castle in an
attempt to recover their lost fortress. Lord Beekjoy, Grand

prevent further inroads. These knights were ordered out

in the news

SACRAMENTO, Calif.—Gov. Ronald Reagan outlining his position
on whether he will be Republican presidential candidate:
"I didn’t say I was going to make a final decision about being a
candidate at all. I just said I was interested in it.”
LONDON—Conservative party home affairs spokesman Quintin
Hogg, blasting Conservative member Enoch Powell for his “keep Brit,
ain white” speech last weekend :
“It was not as if he did not know the effect his words might
have had.”
DALTON, Ga.—Raymond Curtis, a former prison mate of fugitive
James Earl Ray, who is charged with the murder of Dr. Martin Luther
King Jr., quoting Ray:
“If there's a million dollars out on King, I believe if I ever eet
out I’U collect it.”

I would like to offer somewhat of an apology to
an unnamed young lady in admissions and records,
while we are commenting on various departments.
I don’t really know her name, and at the risk of
embarrassing her, she is identified easily by a fine
head of dark red hair, and a set of simply classic
brown eyes. Anyway, said charmer blew up at me
the other day. Really at some stupid who was already walking away, but what the hell, I was a
handy and relatively large target.
We roared at each other briefly through her
protective plastic shield—a contest she was bound
to lose since she had to remain somewhat of a lady
—and after obtaining what I wished—the requisite
rubber stamp on my transcript request— I turned
away still growling, to find most of the students in
the longish lines which seem standard equipment
to the A &amp; R office grinning. It seems to me that
there is herein a moral of sorts. Students, oh most
high administrators, can, and do with amazing frequency, behave like human beings.

Like, they can be sort of apprentice people if
one gives them a chance. Now maybe that many students have gotten so carried away that they tried
to crawl through the counter openings and destroy
offending—in their minds only of course—clerks
that it was necessary to protect all University personnel with those plastic shields. Pardon me, if I
have certain grave doubts about same however. I
think those plastic shields are more of a psychic
necessity than a physical one.
As in so many other places in this society status
has to be acquired somehow, if only by being on
the right side of a plastic shield. Or by being democratic and calling a student, who happens to be several years older than yourself, by his first name. It
is a rather ghastly situation really.
On one hand you have great hordes of students—who if they stop to think (a practice hardly necessary for the majority of courses they are taking)
have very real questions about what they are doing
and why; and on the other the beleagured civil servants caught in a mechanical, endless, unimaginative, regulation dominated existence. It is noticeable
that there is not much affection one for the other,
and even less respect.
What does one do about it? I report problems,

not solutions. Maybe next year a solution specialist
can be found to fill this space. The solution—such
as it is—will probably be very similar to the problem of breaking down the ghettos. As soon as someone settles that one all we will have to do is adapt
it a little.

There is a solution of course, but it is not practical. Which means that it is a) too much bother or
b) too expensive. The simple fact is that
the ghetto
has to be destroyed. Students, unfortunately, are
necessary to the economy. Now it may be that the
most “simple” and “cheapest” way of removing the
ghetto is to arm all major police departments with
clean atomic “devices” for use in case of riots or
other gatherings of hostile®.
Students have to be treated differently. Here the
most “efficient” methods seem to be depersonalization and mass-processing.
It is just possible that both groups could be
added to the human race again by treating them
like members, instead of sub-species. The Negro
obviously has a bitch of much greater magnitude.
Having been dumped on for a couple of centuries
now, I do not personally find it amazing that there
are certain radicals who feel that violence is the
only way out. Indeed the fear that this might spread
to students may be the cause of the plastic
shields.
There will be casualties in trying to
rehabilitate
either group. I suggest that one of the major
ones
will be the ability to feel superior just because of
the existence of either of them. It hat to be. Which
is one of the reasons it will come late, perhaps too
late for the ghetto. It would be easier to begin with
students, but then, we all have to learn our place

New York’s International Studies and World Affairs Center,
Oyster Bay, April 19 to 21.

The two day discussion was attended by Paul Hollender,
International Affairs Coordinator, and Nabil Aland, president
of the International Club.
Mr. Hollender commented that
the basic theme of the conference
and the programs suggested there
by the participants related to
searching under the skin to discover the inner worth of a person.

Dr. Glenn A. Olds, the University dean for this field, in a keynote address, expressed his faith
in the generation preparing to inherit this world. He focused on
three problems which he believes
today’s youth are fighting to over-

come. First is the “intimate problem” of the integrity of the person being more important than
posessions; second, the ultimate
search for meaning; lastly, the inclusive hunger for global connect-

iveness.

Dr. Olds pointed out that we
should not hide ourselves behind
cultural masks and we should not
let our own worlds blind us from
other people. “Man must be more
than himself to be himself.”
Mr. Hollander explained his reaction to the Conference: “Everyone wants someone he can talk
to, someone who will really listen.
Yet everyone is not aware, sensitive and responsive to the feelings of others. This was brought
to the attention of the participants in the conference, who
quickly took it to heart.

American responsibility
“Americans, as hosts, have the
responsibility to take the initiative first. We must show the foreign student that we really are

friend. Meeting and talking on a
personal basis is the most rewarding type of relationship, foi
both American and foreign students have a great deal to offer
each other.”
William Carr of the National
Association for Foreign Student
Affairs, in addressing the conference, traced development
along the International Understanding Continuum. The steps
along this continuum are ethnocentrism, awareness, learning
about other countries, appreciation of differences, cross-cultural
involvement and over-identification.

Mr. Alami took part in a group
discussion that emphasized a political orientation. One of the
main findings of that session was
that foreign students do not like
to take part in political activity
in the U.S. because “as guests in
the U.S., we have more privileges
than rights. It is not safe to participate in U.S. politics since we
are often watched by our own
governments.”

“If American students can understand foreign students, and
visa versa, then potential conflicts can be avoided,” he said.

support the radical revolutions
that are needed.” Dr. Black was
one of some 50 academics and
radical activists who participated
in the conference on “The United
States in a Revolutionary World.”

The three day conference was
held at Princeton’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, which joined the
Friends as sponsors.
As the discussion ranged across
the various international and domestic issues confronting the United States, most of the participants in the conference pushed
for the notion that the U.S. had
become a reactionary force in the
world.
Professor Edgar Z. Friedenberg, of the State University of
Buffalo, said: “Starting from our
cultural roots, I don’t think the
democratic process in this country can lead to treating other
people, especially colored people,
with any respect.”
The defense of the United
States was led, ironically, by two
foreigners, Sir Dennis W. Borgan
of Cambridge University and Leo
Mates of the Institute for International Politics in Belgrade.
Professor Friedenberg attacked
the “absurdity of discussing revolutions in a place like Prince-

ton.”

Play review

'The Lover' and 'The Collection'
mutter
Spectrum

Theater Reviewer

The Studio Two at Lafayette
and Hovt sometimes produces
more stimulating fare than its
counterpart downtown, and the
current presentations of “The
Lover” and “The Collection” are
evidence of this. These two short
works are relatively simple and
understandable, and furthermore,
most enjoyable.

The theme of both works is infidelity; and this theme becomes
thoroughly enveloped in a Pirandello-labyrinth of reality conflicts. First comes “The Lover,”
a rather unique little play about
a rather unique, vaguely comic
situation. Pinter has employed
two characters, husband Richard
and wife Sarah, played most capably by Frank T. Wells and Betty
Lures. Husband is a businessman,
wife is a housewife. Richard and
Sarah seem to enjoy their marriage and keep no secrets. They
are so frank that they speak
openly of Sarah’s lover who
comes to visit her at home several
times a week. But Richard does
not mind (at first) because he has
his own diversion.

Who's a whore?
At one point Sarah
asks

Richard,

casually

“How’s

your

acquaintance.,®ill (John Costopoulos). Wife says: "I did;” Bill says:
‘‘We didn’t.” Now husband must
wonder: did she, or didn’t she?
Only Harold Pinter knows for

whore?” One member of the odd
couple sums up their strange relationship and remarks: “I think
things are beautifully balanced,”
Just as the audience is beginning to enjoy the humor of the
situation, Pinter lets us view an
afternoon rendezvous of Sarah
with lover, who happens to be
no other than hubby Richard.
The characters change character
repeatedly; hubby becomes lover,
wife is perceived as whore. Richard is jealous of himself as the
lover. Hubby resents the bongos
symbols of lust which sexually
arouse Sarah. Richard would like
to he the object of this lust and
scolds: “The constant image of
your lust is a milk jug and a
teapot.”

sure. Or does he?

Director Maurice Breslow has

certainly done justice to Pinter’s
work. His actors work well together even though the somelimes cramped stage makes them
self-conscious. In “The Loved,”
Frank T. Wells’ intonations and
nonchalance are very good and
are essential for the humor to
emerge. Through John Costopou-

had made sure that the homosexuality of the character is per-

ceived.

The frequent transitions from
side to side
are made smoothly, which is indeed fortunate in selections containing so many breaks.

Are they playing one big identity game or trying to devise an
original solution to the rising

scene to scene and

divorce rate? Who knows, but in
any case the result is an interesting sketch of the problems of
objective reality. Or is it?

The modern settings and seen
cry by Harold Head is appropri
ate and convincing.

Does she or doesn't she?
“The Collection” is a similar
absurdity except that the reality
problem is not who is who; but
who did what. Husband James

by James Albarella
Many
people were shocked
when A1 Ko.oper left the Blues
Project last summer for undisclosed reasons. Rumors were then
heard that Kooper was forming
a new band, but with a new approach. Kooper built his new
sound around a horn section
staffed by four accomplished
young jazz musicians on trumpet,
sax, and trombone; Steve Katz
joined Kooper, and the results of
the eight-piece band are now
available in their first album,

Kooper's magic touch

The second side of the album
continues to reveal A1 Kooper’s
magic touch. There is so much
going on in “Just One Smile,”
with bassist Jim Fiedler and
fleugelhorn player Randy Becker
stealing the spotlight from a fine
vocal by Kooper.

“Meagans Gypsy Eyes” builds
on a fine acoustical guitar opening to a solo by Kooper on an
ondoline, a french keyboard instrument which sounds like an
electronic calliope.

multi-talented Kooper. He sings,

“Somethin’ Coin’ On” is the

feeling. One feels that A1 Kooper

is this album.

The opening track “Overture,”
makes the listener feel that perhaps he has bought the wrong
album. A string section plays
excerpts from the album.
It’s impossible
to pick them out though,
until one is familiar with
the
album.

Uses "soul chorus"
“I Love You More Than You’ll

Ever Know” is very solid blues
material, with an excellent job of
vocalizing and arranging done by
Kooper, who uses a female “soul

good track.

It takes many behind-the-scenes people to put
on a production at Buffalo Studio Arena Theatre.
One such person is Blossem Cohan, publicity director.

No newcomer to the theatre scene, Mrs, Cohan
has a long history of outstanding accomplishments
in almost every aspect of theatre. She has acted on
television, directed, served as production manager,
and even has been a plain old stage hand.
She came to Buffalo in 1960, from Indiana, where
she had been directing and acting in the local theatres. When she came to Buffalo she was an active
member of the now defunct Grand Island Theatre.
Later, she went on to work as an actress at the Buf.
falo Studio Arena when it first began. The theatre,
then on Lafayette St., is now the home of the Studio Arena School and the Studio Two productions.

Then she taught at the Studio School, In 1962-63
she worked backstage at Melody Fair; in May 1963
she also starred as Mama Rose in “Gypsy."
Then she was asked by Neal du Brock, executive
producer at Studio Arena, to come and be the publicity coordinator for the entire Studio Arena complex.
Being such an experienced hand in the theatrical
world, Mrs. Cohan has some very definite feelings
about her job and theatre in general.
Q. “What exactly does your job entail?”
A. “Well, I have to get more than 5P0 press
releases to more than 100 or 200 publications all
over the country to keep them informed as to what
we are doing here at Studio Arena, I must arrange
all interviews both with television and newspapers;
I must arrange all pictures that are to be taken of
the current production. Also I have to write all the
biographies for the programs, and many more jobs
too numerous to mention.”

Q. “What were your preparations before the
opening of the current production, “Charley’s Aunt?”
A. “Well, as I said before, I must lay out all
ads that were to be sent to the papers. I have to
get a copy of the posters to the designer, then send
it to the printer and order the appropriate number
of posters that are to be distributed all over the
aea. Then I have to write notes on the play and send
them to our Speakers Bureau—this means that I
also have to read the play and write all the news
releases that go out. Then I have to arrange for a
number of picture sessions in which pictures of the
production with the actors in full costume were
made and sent to the local papers, and then arrange
another picture session for the cover of the program. After this, I have to write all the biographies
of the performers for the program and set up all
ads that pertain to the theatre which appear in the
program.
“As I said before, I also have to arrange all the
special interviews between the actors and the local
media. This includes television. Although many of
the television interviews fall through because before the opening of the play, the actors are going
through grinding 10 hours a day rehearsal sessions
and don’t really feel like being interviewed. Also I
must get color slides taken of the production during rehearsal so we have a complete pictorial his-

tory of the play being presented.”
All this she does every three week period. I
guess it might keep her a little busy.
Q. “Do you feel that the calibre of plays has
increased at the Studio Arena over the years it has

been in Buffalo?”
A. “Yes, definitely. This year we have had
some excellent talent and have even started Studio
Two which is trying to give to the area people another type of play that can’t be put on downtown.
The productions have steadily increased in their
excellence over the years and are still getting better all the time.”
0. “Do you feel that regional theatre in Buffalo has its foot firmly implanted?”
A. “I have believed in this type of theatre
since I was 19 years old, this is even before they
called it regional or repertory theatre. I feel that
this type of theatre should exist all over the nation,
for if it doesn’t flourish, we won’t have any real
theatre to speak of. I also feel that the people of
Buffalo should support this kind of theatre, for it is
fastly becoming a leading art form all over the
nation. As to the firmness of repertory theatre in
Buffalo, I feel that it has definitely set its roots as
much as any other theatre of its kind. As for the
reports of having poor finances, it is true that we
have had money shortages and will probably have
more, but I feel that the people of Buffalo will respond and support our theatre and keep it very
much alive.”

Variety is the keynote in the

“The photo section is especially good, many of the photos ore

“We added our own calculated
captions.”

The magazine is dedicated to
General Lewis B. Hershey, with
whom most students are very
familiar. Included in the selections is the story of “Super Coed" by Linda Hanley.
Besides this year’s edition,
there have been only three other

editions of a humor magazine on
this campus, and at no time have
there been two consecutive editions. This situation Mr. Penn
hopes to see alleviated, since
there is currently a staff willing
to work on next year’s Bull. The
other three issues of a humor
magazine were published in 1913,
1942 and 1965.
Mr. Penn emphasized that the
Bull contains light reading
“just the type you need when
you take a break from studying
for finals.”
A total of 20 persons, staff and
contributors, worked on the Bull.
The office is in room 324, Norton
Hall and Mr. Penn urges anyone
interested in working on the staff
to come to the office.

Film review

'Closely Watched Trains'
Film Reviewer

similarities between
“Closely Watched Trains” (which
opened up recently at the Circle
Art) and “The Graduate” (appearing ad nauseum at the Center
Theater) are apparent throughout
the films. Both are at times very
funny movies. But in both the
humor is tinged with sadness.
In “Trains,” as in “The Graduate,” there is an undercurrent of
tragedy throughout the film. Both
films also concern themselves
with what has become the Holden
Caulfield Syndrome—the struggle
of a young man to achieve maturity. In “Trains” the search for
manhood is almost purely a quest
by the hero to lose his virginity.
In “The Graduate” the search is
more for true love than for sexual fulfillment. Of course both
films, particularly “The Graduate,” concern themselves with a
great deal besides the search for
manhood, but the search is vital
to both films.
The

larities. The characters in “The
Graduate” tend to become mere
caricatures. The characters in
“Trains” are on the whole more
likeable and eralistic. Milos, the
young hero of the film, is a disarmingly naive and likeable character. The other workers at the
train station where Milos is employed are

all

nearly perfect

characterizations. The lecherous
dispatcher and bumbling station
master are brilliantly portrayed
and thoroughly sympathetic.

“Trains” is more realistic than
“The Graduate,” in the sense that

Ben emerges almost immediately

from his insecurity when he falls
in love with Elaine while Milos
remains true to his character till
I he end of the film. There is no
sudden aquisilion of self-confidence after he goes to bed with
a girl for the first time—he is
still Milos.

Effectively anti-war
It is important to note that
while “Trains” is an anti war

film, it avoids villifying the
Nazis. The Germans in the film
are as human as the other characters. There is no spoken or
even implicit condemnation of
Nazi atrocities during the war.
The Resistance members don’t
seem to be acting out of any real
hatred of Nazis, but out of some
undefined love of country. Because both the Nazis and the Resistance members are presented
as human beings and not stock
characters, it is effective as an
anti-war movie. The death in the
film is much more powerful because of this.

The film also avoids a tendency
which is prevalent among Americans to make what purports to be
an anti-war film and ends up as
a glorification of the carnage of
war. Cornel Wilde’s “Beach Red”

are two examples of anti-war
films that become tributes to war.

Rosary Hill College to present
Judy Collins in Kleinhans conci
by James Brennan
Spectrum

Staff

Reporter

Judy Collins, popular folk singer, will appear in concert
at Kleinhans Music Hall April 27 at 8:30 p.m.

Presented under the auspices of Rosary Hill College,
Miss Collins will be the highlight of the school’s Moving Up
Day Weekend. Appearing with her on the program is
comedian Richard Pryor.

Judy Collins has a voice of extensive range and a solid rapport with her material, whether
it is the Beetle’s “In My Life” or
Bob Dylan’s “Tom Thumb Blues.”
Two of her numbers, “Since You
Asked” and “Albatross” a song
dedicated to Joan Baez, reveal
her to be not only a versatile
contemporary singer, but a talented composer. Her success is
evident in her albums, “In My
Life,” “Golden Apples of the
Sun,” and her newest “Wildfolwer,” which features three of
Leonard Cohen’s songs, Sisters of
Mercy, priests and Hey That’s No

Russia.

Jefferson

formers who know her well,
vouch that she is a girl who
believes in things, especially the
limitless possibilities of man.

She has a breadth of vision, a
remarkable drive that tends to
involve the audience in her ideas
and to contemplate that which
the future holds. As she says:
“When I sing, I expose myself.
I want the audience to take the
trip with me; to expand and think
about their experiences.”

She was trained as a concert
pianist and years afterward took
up the guitar and began her career as a folksinger. In her performances she accompanies herself on six and 12 string guitar
and piano.

“Riots

that is indescribable. Neil Hoos,
a graduate student in philosophy,

The program is mainly a reading-acting one where different

Do you often think it impossible to untangle the State University of Buffalo
bureaucracy? In cooperation with the Dean of Students' Office, The Spectrum is
sponsoring pw ACTION LINE.—Htwwyll ACTION LINE individual students can get

are made, and get ACTION when change is indicated.
ACTION LINE will answer all questions of general interest which appear to
be pertinent to the student body.
The Spectrum will include them in its special
ACTION LINE weekly column. Each inquiry will be thoroughly investigated and
The name of the individual originating the inquiry will

not be published.

Why does the University Bookstore levy a 50% surcharge on the
New York Times it sells? Are there plans to extend it to other newspapers?

The Times is presently sold in the Bookstore at the prevailing
price, that is, 1 Op per copy, A few months ago, the Wall Street Journal
went up in price and through a clerical error, both the Times and the
Joural were marked the same. There is no contemplated price incease for any newspapers at this time. Any future price increase, not
now known, will reflect only a cost increase set by the publisher,
Why does the University Bookstore not sell the New York Times
on Saturdays?
To date the demand has been so minute that it would not be
practical to stock the Times on Saturday. Should there be an in.
creased request for this issue, however, the Bookstore would be glad
to stock it at that time.
Why does the University Bookstore collect Erie County Sales Tax
on periodicals sold downstairs in the text department, but not upstairs?
Periodicals carried upstairs are current and the ones downstairs
are sold as required textbooks. Therefore, the Erie County Sales Tax
is collected, as it is on all required texts.
Why weren't catalogues, or even lists of course offerings, available to students during the pre-registration period?
Everyone concerned has been unhappy about this. The catalogues,
however, were not available because of a combination of unusual circumstances in different departments that kept causing delays. There
were staff problems, printing hangups, and an overwhelming number
of changes in curriculum (18 pages of corrections). In fact, the originally scheduled registration period was postponed for two weeks in
the hope that catalogues would be available. When it was realized
a firm delivery date for the catalogues could not be secured, registration was scheduled and advisors and students worked from the
two master schedules posted on a bulletin board.
A partial supply of catalogues became available on March 27
and were distributed. The balance were delivered on April 2 and
anyone interested in securing a copy now may do so by contacting
the receptionist in University College.
Is it possible to pre-register for summer session courses?
Advanced registration may be completed, in person, on week days
from April 15-May 17. All materials, including catalogues, arc available in the Office of Admissions and Records.

Dearlove honored

Everything turned up roses for
the State University ot Buffalo
track team as they avenged their
two opening losses in trouncing
Erie Tech and Canisius by the
score of 108-55-18. It was no contest as the Bulls swept every
event except three.
The victors had numerous outstanding individual performances.
Art Dearlove was named the
trackman of the week for wining
the 220-yard dash in 22.1, the
440-yard dash in 52.8 and running on the victorious 440 and
mile relay teams. Larry Naukam
for the second straight week
picked up a double win in the
hurdles as did Tony Nicotera in
the 880-yard run and the mile
relay. Mel Spelman and Mike
Rissel remained undefeated in

the shot-put and javelin, respectively. Quarter-miler Mike Alspaugh, last year’s MVP, moved
up to the magic mile and came
up a winner.
This Saturday, the Blue and
White play host to Cortland. The
action starts at 1:30 p.m. at Rotary Field.
The freshman track team did
all right for themselves in defeating Canisius, 82-18. Billy Barnes
turned in the best individual performance in winning the 220 and
440-yard dashes and running the
anchor leg of the mile relay team

Columbia Dean held in sit-in
Demonstrating CoNEW YORK
lumbia University students held three
academic officials, including an acting
dean, hostage Wednesday and took possesion of president Grayson Kirk’s office
suite, endangering valuable art works,
among them a Rembrandt.
The students released Dean Henry S.
Coleman and two 'aides Wednesday afternoon after holding them for nearly 24
hours. Coleman said they were not
harmed or threatened and passed the time
by eating, drinking and playing cards.
He said they were given “more food than
we could eat.”
Several state and city officials rushed
to the campus to persuade some 110 students to give up their sit-ins in Hamilton
Hall, an eight-story Columbia College
class building, and stately Low Memorial
Building, the hub of the campus, nearby.
The 16,000-student University apparently
refused to deal with protest leaders until
the sit-ins were ended.
Although the students sent several demands to Kirk, who was not in his office
when it was seized early this morning,
the main issues centered on civil rights.
Some 80 Negro students who held
Hamilton Hall protested the erection of a

Africa

Most students fled Kirk’s office when
school authorities threatened them with
arrest, but about 30 remained locked in
the five-room suite in the Low Memorial.
They smashed a vase in Kirk’s private
shower and broke the showerhead, pulled
out desk drawers and threw them on the
floor, scattered papers, ripped off lampshades and dumped 'ashtrays.
One of the protestors in Kirk’s office
was Linda LeClair, the 20-year-old New
Hampshire girl who dropped out of Columbia’s Barnard college last week after a
student-faculty board reprimanded her for
living with her boy friend off-campus.
A photographer who witnessed the vandalism said Rembrandt’s “Portrait of a
Man with a Beret,” a $1 million gift of
grocery heir Huntington Hartford, a 16th
century Spanish tapestry, and several portraits of historical value, were intact.
The faculty called an emergency meeting to discuss the demonstration late in
the afternoon. Dean Coleman attended.

It is alrdeay known that a majority of
the 71 IOC members approved an executive board recommendation to withdraw
the invitation to South Africa to take part
in the games.
Although IOC President Avery Bundage
ordered complete secrecy to surround the
vote, sources disclosed that more than
the required number of members (36) has
approved the board's recommendation.

It is understood about 50 telegrams
have been received at IOC headquarters in
Lausanne and that at least 32 of them
favored withdrawing the South African
invitation.
Bundage, however, was said to be determined to make nothing official until
all the answers are in or at least as many
as can be expected.
In Johannesburg, South African Olympic Games Association chief Frank Braun
Tuesday night re-affirmed his country’s
determination to carry on as a member

two months away, Dr. Jackson decided to
withdraw from the race in favor of Rep.
McCarthy. Spectrum reporter Corydon Ireland interviewed Dr. Jackson, and reports
on the circumstances surrounding an English
professor’s entry, and exit, from the world

of politics.
It was so simple in 1928. Calvin Coolidge, then President of the United States,
stood by a horse on a farm somewhere
and, honing a sentence out of ice, monotoned: “I do not choose to run in 1928.”

True to the twentieth century proportions it illustrated, the October march by
peace demonstrators to Washington, D.C.,
swollen to violence at the doors of the Pentagon, denied Coolidgian coolness and brevity in political issues to many men: one
of these was Bruce Jackson, professor of
folklore here at Buffalo.
Typically, Bruce Jackson reacted with
his pen, head first, and in January of this
year published an article in Atlantic
Monthly (it was impressionism with muscles) about the “Battle of the Pentagon.”
“Battle” was a good example of good journalism. It drew th3 truth of the issues involved there from the experiences the 31
year old Dr. Jackson had, from the people
he met, and from the impressions, sad or
funny, he himself felt. The descriptions
which he created were clear, strong and
pertinent and the stories which he collected were well told.
But nothing was written without an
undercurrent of torment: he was intolerant of the concessionaires and hangers-on;
was rankled from disappointment to horror
at the viciousness of the suited, helmeted,
billy-sticked U.S. Marshalls; was critical
from
of a national press that hardly peered
coming
behind its style sheets for fear of
across facts and incidents which did not
tally with precedent or which might offinally,
fend commuter standards, and,
a
Bruce Jackson was disillusioned with
repeace movement which either had to
sort to violence or disappear altogether,
the bena peace movement corrupted by
'evolent anarchy” of the “do your own
thing” mystique, which frustrated conin the name of peace, and
solidated gains
which only encouraged the press toathrow
all serious advocates of peace into comand
mon bag with the pinkos, Maoists,
noisy social freaks.

Into the cookies
“Battle” could have been one of many
such articles cranked off the hot presses
march. For
of emotion at the time of the
the sake of one paragraph at the end,
exwhich was buried tinder in a great,
citing sparkler of prose, this one article
was unique. Hidden there, on the last
page, an idea quietly exploded:
Bruce Jackson, writer and educator by
profession, his hand rested flat on the
and honBible of academia, a clean, quiet
orable man, sohelpmegod, was to run for
Congress in the fall. Sohelpmegod.
“Martha, that damn kid is into the
cookies again.”
Bruce
For the first time in his life,
for a
Jackson was into the cookies. And
would
while, at least, it looked as if it
spoil his dinner. He dutifully set aside
two boks that were begging to be written,
slackened Jiis pace on a couple of area
projects, and did not prepare one class,
at least, (as a result of this interview). He
dewas into the cookie jar at arms lengthother
spite the crumbs, bugs and assorted
inevitably
academic no-nos that were
found within.
i
Setting his sights for the seat of incumbent Rep. “Max” McCarthy, Jackson began
to establish new political ties in this area
and in Washington, and renew old ones
which were set in the stone of the old
days at Harvard. With the aid of college
students hip to his political code and with
the aid (potential) of local revenue sources
(many the same as McCarthy) Jackson,
to
book learner and innovator, threatened
become King of the political Cookie jar.

Victory smile?

Despite the lone dissenter in the background, Senator Eugene McCarthy
smiles as he opens his campaign headquarters in Manhattan Tuesday. A few
hours later the first word of his victory
in the Pennsylvania primary reached
him.

McCarthy: spoiled by LBJ

Richard “Max” McCarthy is a short,

least well-intentioned. His consistent streak
of liberalism has been dulled, or hidden, in
the past because of his terribly close association with Lyndon Johnson. It was this
influence which Jackson sought to destroy; even though he had always held at
least mild admiration for Max, he thought
the Texan’s influence was crippling the
man politically. Max, for example, wants
to get out of Vietnam in a bad way, yet
continued to compromise with L.B.J. Jack
son, like Adlai Stevenson or Eugene Me
Carthy, saw no room for compromise.
He compromised only with Max—and
only then because he saw hope for his pol
ieies with the older man.
Bruce Jackson is out of the running—for the present. The Barbecue Man’s recent political reverse took some of the air
—in fact most of it—out of his case
against Max, which was originally that of
Johnson’s negative influence on the. congressman.
The university educator now feels that
a campaign against “a man like Max"
would be “arrogant, or quixotic, and certainly irresponsible,” since it would now
draw money from the old liberal with no
good cause, Johnson effectively removed,
and because McCarthy has a better chance
of defeating Bob Weber, a tough ex-policeman recently nominated for Max’s post by
area Republicans, and who is the anti
thesis of all the two old opponents stand
for. Should Weber win the post, however,
Bruce promises to be back on the slate
with a polished, studied campaign ready.

Conservative acceptance,
'liberal' cynicism

stressed in one section of “Battle,” Jackson

his name for the great mythical belief
academic
that the “clean”— suggesting the
people and the intelligencia—should not

This, he contends, has usually been the
case, leaving the spoils and spoiling to pro
cynfessional political manipulators. This they

The urban crisis in America is topic
of speech presented by Tom Hayden
by Jay Schreiber
Spectrum Staff

Reporter

“We can describe American policy as having one single
thrust —; to look upon all non-white people as backward. We
only pay attention when these people come out of apathy and
begin to challenge white America’s domination.”
These were among the thoughts
presented by Tom Hayden in a
speech on the urban crisis in
America Tuesday.
“What is new today is the
growth of opposition to the bad
side of America, slavery, capitalism, imperialism. We’re living in
a time where the opposition is

greatest, where the survival of
the people in the world therefore
depends on resolution of these
questions. Newark, Vietnam, underscore that the American crisis
is of a single pattern and thread,
moving towards a decisive climax,” he said.
In the first of six lectures sponsored by the Graduate Student
Association, the founder and first
president of SDS decried U.S.
arrogance. “It says that our white
civilization’s security is at stake,
that it must be preserved. This
pattern is bankrupt, it is meeting
increased opposition,” he said.
Calm and soft-spoken, Mr. Hayden said that government aid policies only deflect, but do not
put off crisis. Having worked
in
Newark with the Newark Community Union for three years,

Mr. Hayden cited situations in
that city which display what he
termed “the absence of mechanism to let people solve their

grievances peacefully.”
According to Mr. Hayden, Negro leaders in Newark are chosen
by the white Mayor, and they are
all basically out of touch with the
Negro community.
“He’s fooling himself, it’s contenting oneself by surrounding

oneself with favorable advisors.
When this fails, when humanitarian gestures fail, there is a
demand for law and order.”
Mr. Hayden said that stores in
Newark committed legalized looting by selling poisoned meat and
paying off the inspectors.

ing problems; the outbreak of
rebellion is the only other alternative. The means that white
America uses to satisfy the Negro only raise the latter’s frustration, in the end it will destroy
America,” he said.

Our imperialistic policies toward Latin America have not

60% of manufacturing and we

March from Memphis
The second and most dramatic
part of the campaign will begin
May 2. Mr. Abernathy will lead
a march of thousands from the
Lorraine Hotel in Memphis, where
Dr. King was assassinated, to
Washington. The poor will also
mass in Mississippi, Chiicago, and
Boston, where similar marches to
the nation’s capital will begin.
It is not clear whether the
the marchers will walk the entire distances involved.
In Washington, the demonstrators will set up a shanty town in
“some conspicuous place” until
their demands are answered.
Mr. Abernathy said the campaign will be the “most militant

and nonviolent war ever engaged
by the human and civil rights
movements in this country.”

"Militant nonviolent action"
“We will stay there, engaging
in militant nonviolent action, until the Congress deals with the
issue of poverty and racism in
the United States,” he said.
Mr. Abernathy did not outline
the specific demands that will be
made of the Congress. However,
he has said in the past that the
government should provide jobs
for everyone able to work and a
guaranteed annual income for
those who are too lazy to work.
Many critics of the demonstrations feel that they may take a
violent turn, but Mr. Abernathy
insisted that while there will be
acts of civil disobedience, they
will be nonviolent.
“We cannot afford to compromise,” he said.

industrialization led

to a surplus of American goods
and so the United States found
markets in the underdeveloped
countries. Here capitalism created a sharp division between the
“high urban centers and the boon
docks.”

Mr, Gerassi charged that we

have modernized not the peasant
in Vietnam, but Saigon. We have
created a strange country—Saigon—within South Vietnam.

In Latin America we have created urban centers with American
national bourgeois, he contended.
“We have gone to great lengths”
to preserve control of Latin America even to use military intervention. The only way to break
America’s “stranglehold” on Latin American economy is by insurrection, Mr. Gerassi said.

Need faculty to teach
bulletin board courses
The problem of finding faculty
members to teach the 60 proposed
courses listed on the Norton Hall
bulletin board was the main topic
discussed at an organizational

meeting Thursday.
Unlike the experimental college, which will continue, these
courses will be incorporated into
the University structure. Many of
the proposed courses will be
given for credit.
Dean Claude E. Welch has already met with provosts and
deans to ask various departments
to find faculty members for the
courses of more than 20 stu-

dents. President Martin Meyerson has promised to find faculty
members if all else fails.
Non-credit c ourses can be
taught by anyone who feels qualified as an instructor. Credit
courses will have to be approved

by the University.
Faculty members have signed
up for the courses in photography, creative writing, drawing
for non-art majors, journalism
and guerrilla warfare.
To find other faculty members
in the meantime, Nancy Coleman
and Stewart Edelstcin will begin
contacting people who signed up
for courses in an effort to arrange a meeting of the class to
decide on the content of the
course. At the same time, students interested in arranging a

Dominican Ambassador to the United States and OAS Wednesday
evening.

"The question is whether that
revolution will be peaceful.”
In April of 1965 that process
of revolution in the . Dominican
Republic was not peaceful. Mr.
Godoy, who was given the task of
Provisional President following

the 1965 crisis outlined what he
feels was a real cause of that revolution. After 32 years of a
“very tight dictatorship,” the
country finally held “free, honest
elections” in 1962, only to have
the military, “who held power,”
seize control of the government
seven months later. “This mockery of their right caused the
people frustration and tensions,”
which were to erupt in April,
1965, he said.
The three lessons of the Dominican Crisis, according to Mr.
Garcia-Godoy, are:

A lengthy question-and-answer

After the meeting had ended, a

New freshman seminars instituted
Beginning in the fall, for the
first time, freshmen will have the
opportunity to take seminar
courses taught by full professors.
The innovation of freshman seminars aimed exclusively at the
“forgotten fresnman” has a threefold purpose according to Dean
of University College Claude E.
Welch,

Aid adjustment

Dean Welch expressed the im-

portance of the freshman, who
has just graduated from high
school. He has learned how to
learn in the high school environment and must now adjust to the
college setting. “But in large lectures there is little chance to
learn to challenge, debate, and
discuss,” he said.
As a second purpose, freshman
seminars will function to help
students increase their skills in

discussing and debating.
Finally, these new courses will
serve as a chance to explore new
areas that are not covered in the
regular curriculum. For example,
Professor Edgar Friedenberg of
the Sociology Department will be
offering a freshman seminar en-

titled “Folk-Rock Music.”
Urban problems will be the
focus of concentration of a number of professors from several
faculties.
Robert Heller and Troy McKelvey will teach “Urban School Administration.” Dr, Robert Paaswell of the School of Engineering
will teach a non-mechanical
course called “Reducing Poverty.”

make our nation whole again by making our people
one again.

Think about the world, its complexity and
its challenge. Russia. China. NATO, SEATO, the OAS,
the UN. Europe.The Middle East. Africa.Latin America.
Asia. Nuclear arms and diplomatic maneuvers, A world
entering the most dangerous period in its history, and
looking to the United States for leadership that can
takeit safely through.
■

Think about the Presidency, its awesome
powers and its lonely responsibilities. The range of
things a Presidenthas to think about, know about. The
great decisions that he alone can make, and that may
determine the fate of freedom for generations to come
-and even the survival of civilization,
Think about the one man who is best qualified for that office. With the sure hand, the balanced
judgment, the combination of seasoned experience
and youthful vigor. The one man whohas gained a perspective on the Presidency unique in our time-from
20 years in public life, eight of them at the very center
of power-followed by a rare opportunity to reflect and
re-study,and to measure the pressing needs of America
and me world in this final third of the 20th Century. The
one man prepared by history for me world’s toughest
job-the one man who can really make a difference in
these troubled, dangerous times.

Professors to teach

Also of interest is the fact that

many of the freshman seminars

will be taught by distinguished
professors on campus. Robert
O’Neil, professor at the law
school, along with Drs. Jack Nesson and Perry Hicks will offer
a course entitled “Social Issues
and the American School.”
Dr .Ralph Lumb, director of the
nuclear reactor center, will teach
a course in engineering and the
applied sciences called “Safeguarding Special Nuclear Materials.”
History professor Milton Plesur will teach “The Mass Media

and Modern America,” and Dr.
Warren Bennis, provost of the
Faculty of Social Sciences and
Administration, will teach “Critiques of American Society.”
There will be limited enrollment for the seminar courses,
with an approximate capacity of
one third of the incoming freshman class. Each seminar will allow for a maximum of between
ten and 20 students. Freshmen
will sign in advance for seminar
courses.

Watch the faculty
The Faculty Senate is meeting Thursday at 2:30 p.m, in
Capen’s Butler Auditorium to reconsider its resolution condemning the war in Vietnam. The entire academic community
should attend this meeting for it may prove very interesting
and very revealing.
The question is whether or not the Faculty Senate will
yield to the pressure of some of its body as well as outside
groups to recind its resolution of condemnation.
Much of the faculty pressure ensues from the fact that
attendance at the last meeting was very low. How strange
that those who seek to reverse the vote did not think it important enough to attend the first meeting.
We are more concerned, however, with those who may
change their vote because of the apparently greater numbers
disfavoring the resolution.
By condemning the war, the senate took a bold step.
Taking a stand on a most pressing issue is something that
too many faculties at too many universities have failed to do.
Negating that move would surely be an irresponsible
act by the senate. The passage of the anti-war resolution was
one of the few significant things done by the faculty senate
this year. The undoing of that action will forever be to the
faculty’s discredit.
We will watch Thursday’s meeting closely. Hopefully,
the entire University community will watch with comparable
interest.

'No need to rush into this peace thing

the
lighter
side
by Dick West
Congressional criticism of the proposed questionnaire for the 1970 Census is growing almost as fast
as the population.
The protesting lawgivers contend the detailed
information people will be required to impart,
particularly about their living quarters, is both
burdensome and an invasion of privacy.
They may nave a point there. One question, for
instance, asks if your dwelling is a cooperative or

condominum.
That is obviously burdensome. Among other
things, it involves going to the dictionary to see
what a “condominium” is.
Another asks whether your dwelling is “occupied without payment of cash rent? Skip' to
page 4,” That could be an invasion of privacy.
People who are not paying the rent may have
to skip not only to page 4 but clear to the next
town.
I do believe, however, that the complaints are
largely based on a misconception. Most people
don’t really object to telling personal things about

themselves.

In fact, 9 out of 10 will bend your ear for
hour if you give them half a chance.
The trouble is, the census questions are badly

phrased.

“How many rooms do you have?” “Do you have
hot piped water?” And so forth.
With that approach, the questionnaire sounds
like the sheriff making an inventory before throwing you out on the sidewalk.
Since the data sought by the Census Bureau
presumably will be useful, it should revise the
form to provide a questionnaire everyone would
love. Something on this order:
1. What kind of dump are you stuck with? a.
A beatup house, b. A crummy duplex, c. A stinking
apartment, d. A lousy trailer.
2. Did that crook: a. Rent it to you? b. Lease
it to you? c. Sell it to you? d. Pay you to take it
off his hands?
3. What do you hate most about it, bathroomwise? a. No tub. b. No shower, c. No lavatory, d. No
cotton-picking hot water, e. Somebody is always in
there ahead of me.

Militarily we're in a very strong position'

Appraises Spectrum coverage
To the Editor;

At a time when feature reporting generally
consists of put-on/put-down opinionated pap, Miss
Linda Hanley’s coverage of Krishna Consciousness
was a genuine delight. Her Krishna Consciousness
Index was high, Krishna appeared at least 32
times in print, and that is the ultimate point. To
my knowledge, there has never been such an accurate and informative account of Krishna Consciousness Philosophy in any news media. She is
heading for Krishna, burning desire for cigarettes and a sleepy leg nonwithstanding, simply because she has a good ear tor the Truth.

Re her being hooked on air pollution (cigarettes), one of the minor by-products of chanting
Hare-Krishna is that such habits fall away naturally. None of those so-called rules she mentioned
can be understood without chanting, e.g., you give
up cigarettes because the desire for them goes for
Krishna instead, same for drugs, etc. Because
Krishna Consciousness tastes better. Otherwise,
giving up cigarettes etc. requires a material substitute or sublimation, as all negative renunciation
does.
As for the materialistic ads, once someone asked
Swamiji why if he was spiritual was he using a
tape recorder, record player, etc. He answered
that it was not object used that counted, but the
consciousness behind its use, i.e., spreading this
Krishna Consciousness is beyond the motives of
material advertising and profit. The only “profit”
we get is Krishna and the things we advertise help
people to remember Krishna. We made a record,
just like a lot of other publicity seekers, but it’s
the Sound of Krishna. (Incidentally if she would
like a record wholesale, she can gejt same at Kirtan
after recess is over).
I would like to thank her again for a fair and
honest report, and wishing her well, HARE
KRISHNA!
Your servant,

not accept.

A self-imposed set of rules involving dormitory and
parking restrictions is one thing. But the Stony Brook rules
go beyond anything a university need impose.
Among the more obvious:
Physical assault is forbidden
Willful destruction of University or personal property of others is forbidden
Theft is forbidden
Of course these are violations—and they need not be
included in a code of student conduct. Society makes those
restrictions clear.
The interesting matter, however, is not the rules themselves, but why students chose to define them. At virtually
every other university, students would balk at the listing of
obvious moral wrongs. At Stony Brook, they demand it.
It is indeed a strange development that, in part, may be
explained by a student desire to placate a hostile community
and Council—the type of placation that says; “See the rules
we’ve made for ourselves.”
But all of this indicates something more. It points out
that Stony Brook students have lost their perspective of what
a university is all about. It reveals a strong feeling of insecurity, of uncertainty. They were once, perhaps, overly unconcerned. Now they have swung too far in the other direction.
What these students are doing today may take years to
undo.
It should be recognized, however, that the students are
not totally to blame. They have succumbed to the pressures
exerted by the town and a handful of legislators.
The students of Stony Brook are relatively unaware of
the implications of their actions. They know that the rules
help them to feel more secure, and security is a pressing
need. To the observer, however, the whole situation is upsetting and one which causes great concern.

VC'

,

suits could be far-reaching.
The rural campus, with its college-oriented life, conveys the picture of liberalism. In many ways, it is liberal. But
there is one overriding factor that reveals itself once the
free-loving facade is penetrated—the students of Stony Brook
are scared.
They are scared of a largely hostile community which
will employ any means to keep the University “in check.”
They are scared of a University Council that feels obligated
to play a role far out of proportion to its purpose. They fear
an administration which they can no longer totally trust.
Perhaps more importantly, they fear another raid. They
are never certain that a night’s sleep will not be interrupted
by a policeman at the door.
All this has led to a compulsion by the Stony Brook
student to have the rules and regulations clearly defined. “I
want to know just what I can and cannot do. If I step over
that line, I want to know if I’m going to get shot.”
One symptom of this compulsion is the frequent redefinition of rules—redefinition, not by administrators, but by
students. They have written and approved by referendum a
series of rules that students in different circumstances would

The rules are needed to minimize the possibility
of incidents involving alcohol on campus, since such
an incident could severely jeopardize any future
liquor license.
As the rules are currently established, only organizations may use alcohol in Norton Union.
Those organizations must demonstrate to the Norton House Council; (1) that no alcoholic beverages
are being sold, (2) that no under age
individuals
are served alcoholic beverages, and (3) that nonalcoholic beverages are also served. They must
also specify type of alcohol served and method

of service.

Opinions

—

“Must the citizen ever for a moment, or in the
least degree, resign his conscience to the legislator? Why has very man a conscience, then? I
think that we should be men first and subjects
afterwards. It is not desirable to cultivate a respect for the law, so much as for the right.
“The only obligation which I have a right to
assume is to do at any time what I think right. A
common and natural result of an undue respect
for law is, that you may see a file of soldiers,
marching in admirable order over hill and dale to
the wars, against their wills, ay, against their
common sense and consciences, which makes it
very steep marching indeed, and produces a palpitation of the heart.
“They have no doubt that it is a damnable
business in which they are concerned; they are
all peaceably inclined. Now, what are they? Men
at all? or small moveable forts and magazines,
at the service of some unscrupulous man in power?
“The mass of men serve the state thus, not as
men mainly, but as machines, with their bodies.
In most cases there is no free exercise whatever
of the judgment or of the moral sense; but they
put themselves on a level with wood and earth
and stones; and wooden men can perhaps be manufactured that will serve the purpose at well.
“Such command no more respect than men of
straw or a lump of dirt. They have the same sort
of worth only a shorses and digs. Yet such as
these even are commonly esteemed good citizens.
“All men recognize the right of revolution; that
is, the right to refuse allegiance to, and to resist,
the government, when its tyranny or its inefficiency
are great an dunendurable. But almost all say that
such is not the case now. But such was the case,
they think, in the Revolution of ’76.
If one were to tell me that this was a bad government because it taxed certain foreign commodities brought to its ports, it is most probable that I
should not make an ado about it, for I can do
without them.
“But. when a sixth of the population of a nation which has undertaken to be the refuge of
liberty, are slaves, and a whole country is
unjustly
overrun and conquered by a foreign army, and
subjected to military law, I think that it is no too
soon for honest men to rebel and
revolutionize.
What makes this duty the more urgent is the fact
that the country so overrun is not our own, but
ours is the invading army.
“There are thousands who are in opinion
opposed to slavery and to the war, who yet
in effect do nothing to put an end to them; who,
esteeming themselves children of Washington and
Franklin, sit down with their hands in their
pockets, and say that they know not what
to do,
and do nothing; who even postpone the question
of freedom to the question of free trade, and
quietly read the prices current along with
the
latest advices from (Vietnam), after dinner, and,
it may be, fall asleep over them both.
“At most they will only give a cheap vote, and a
feeble countenance and God-speed, to the right,
as it goes by them. All voting is a sort of gaming’
like checkers, with a moral tinge
to it, playing
with right and wrong, with moral questions; and
betting naturally accompanies it. The
characters of
the voters is not staked. least my vote, perchance,
as I think right; but I am not vitally
concerned
that right should prevail. I am willing to leave
to
it
the majority.
“A wise man will not leave the right to the
mercy of chance, nor wish it to prevail
through
the power of the majority. A minority
is powerless while it conforms to the majority; it is not
even a minority then. If the
alternative is to
keep all just men in prison, or give up war and
slavery, the state will not hesitate
which to choose
Seen from a lower point of view, the
Constitution and the laws, with all its faults,
are very
good: but seen
from a point of view a little
higher they are what I
have described

“Doing a play at a University”

Mr. Ask said, “seems to call for
an erudite kind of approach, if
done by someone at a University,
since it is an educational process.
I feel lucky that I don’t have to
approach The Knight of the Burning Pestle in this way. I don’t
feel obligated to be a teacher.
But, by my approaching the play
in human terms, if anybody who
is involved gets an inkling of
learning, I would be satisfied.”
“Plays to me are made up not
of actors, but of people and how
they react to each other under
certain situations,” he said, “It
makes no difference what era a
person lives in since the basic
human emotions never change.
The stimulants of emotions naturally vary depending upon the age
in which we live. The reaction to
that stimulus varies, but the basic
emotions remain the same. But

Uncle George is a real expert with other

But when it comes to your diamond, we’re going
to suggest that you ignore him.
Because unless Uncle George is a trained

do about diamonds.
Every ArtCarved diamond is inspected by a
gemologist and backed by a written PVPSM

And at any time during your lifetime, if you
ever want to trade your ring in for a more expensive
ArtCarved ring, we’ll take it back. At it’s full
value.
Can Uncle George give you that kind of
guarantee?

Lottery system determines residency
In an attempt to solve the impending problem caused by an
on- campus housing shortage, the

Inter-Residence Council

adopted

Thursday

a

resolution outlining
for the use of the results of a lottery held last week.

procedures

According to Joel Fein man,
IRC president, there will be a

shortage of 110 male and 117 female dormitory spaces in the fall.
These figures were arrived at by
maximizing current residency by
such methods as eliminating Allenhurst TV lounges and by placing Tower Hall RA’s in single
rooms.

The resolution proposes that
lottery be used to determine
two things: “first, which students
will be housed in residence and
second, hall preference.”

the

"To insure maximum equality,”
the resolution proposes that all
students who wish to remain in
residence will draw a lottery
number when room deposits are
made. In the case of an excess
of applicants for University housing, those drawing the lowest
numbers will be given priority.
“After the lottery sytem has
been used to determine residency, it will be used for hall
preferences.”

All Requests for Allenhupst Apwill be formed by the method of
tripling freshmen in proportion

to the size of the resident freshman class, and tripling upper-

classmen according to the results
of the lottery.
Added to the resolution were
several amendments. Any student
participating in the lottery and
forced off campus will be able
to try again the following year.
Any student living within a 35
mile radius from the University
will be denied space until it is

avilable. Two exceptions were in-

Baseball Bulls crush ECU in opener;
sluggers' record now stands at 9-2-1
by Rich Baumgarten
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Opening day

just

wouldn’t be opening day without
ECTI. For the third straight
year, the State University of Buffalo baseball team opened its
home season by taking the measure of the Katsmen, this time
10-2 before close to 400 fans last
Tuesday at Clark Field. The previous two seasons, the Diamondmen scored 5-2 and 8-1 triumphs
over the hapless ECTIers.
Senior outfielder Rick Wells led
the Bulls’ 15 hit assault on three
ECTI pitchers by belting a home
run, double and single in his
three trips to the plate. Wells
scored three runs, and was credited with six RBI’s, Catcher Brian
Hansen and second sacker Stan
Odachowski also starred in the
hitting department cracking three
singles each while Ken Rutkowski
further aided the Bulls’ cause
with a double and a single.

ECTI jumped off to a quick
1-0 first inning lead when shortstop Larry Barreca led off with a
double and came home on Bob
Bobbin’s single.

Tied in first
The Bulls tied the score at one
apiece in the bottom of the first
on Rutkowski’s double and Hansen’s single. The Bulls then added
two more in the second for a
3-1 lead, and actually iced the
game in the third stanza when
Wells connected for a three run
homer, a 370 foot job over the
left field fence.

The Buffalo hardballers added
another run in the sixth, and
three more in the seventh, but for
all intents and purposes the out-

come was already a foregone conclusion. ECTI never did manage
to muster much of a scoring at-

tack.

Bulls are now discovering that

victories are difficult to obtain these days.
After getting head coach Bill
Sanford’s 200th victory as a nineteen year head coach last Tuesday

The Bulls played host to Colgate

Sanford said that it was
good for the
Bulls to meet up
with a team such as Colgate, “a

Defense spokesman fired
LONDON (UPD—Conservative party lead-

er Edward Heath fired the party’s defense
spokesman, Enoch Powell, less than 36
hours after Powell made a “keep Britain

Heath said he told Powell “he should

no longer be invited to attend the shadow

cabinet.”
“I consider the speech he made . . .
yesterday to have been racialist in tone
and liable to exacerbate racial tensions,”
Heath said. “The Conservative party is
utterly opposed to racialism and discrimination of a racial or religious kind. The
words and actions of the party and its
leaders must be directed to this end.”
Powell had been one of Heath’s closest
advisors. As defense spokesman, he was
virtually certain of a cabinet post should
the Conservatives win the next general
elections. His removal from the shadow
cabinet relegates him to a low status in
the party hierarchy.
Heath said deputy opposition leader
Reginald Maudling will take over Powell’s
post as shadow defense minister. In British politics, the opposition parly names a

shadow cabinet to better organize criticism of the party in power.

End to immigration

In his peech, Powell called for an end to

subjects and attacked the Labor governmen’s civil rights bill which comes up for
debate in the House of Commons early
this week.

Powell suggested colored persons already living in Britain chould be encouraged by financial grants to go back to

their home countries.
He said allowing an annual inflow of
about 50,000 colored edpendents is like
“watching a nation busily engaged in
heaping up its own funeral pyre.”
Powell’s speech brought a wave of re-

action from immigrant associations and
both major parties and threatened a
further split in the Conservative party
on the race issue.
Britain now has slightly more than 1
million colored residents, about two per
cent of the population. Most of them
have come into Britain during the past
15 years.

U.S. optimistic about talks
WASHINGTON (UPD—Under Secretary of

State Nicholas DeB. Katzenbach expressed

confidence early this week that the impasse over a site for preliminary Vietnam peace talks “will be solved.” Other
State Department officials however questioned Hanoi’s sincerity.
Speaking on the record, State Department officials said the failure of Hanoi
recently to use private diplomatic channels, rather than public broadcasts, to
communicate its responses to American
proposals on a site for talks cast doubt
on the Communists’ claim they are willing
to establish contact.
Katzenbach, in an interview broadcast
by the student radio station at Harvard
University, said of the impasse; “I think
it will be solved; I can’t predict on the
time, I suppose it really depends on how
much one wants to talk as to how many
different places one can put forward in
suggesting sites.”

spy activities.

The Under Secretary also strongly
hinted that more than a year ago the administration, in secret diplomacy, offered
the partial bombing pause that President
Johnson announced March 31, and that
was followed by Hanoi’s first public expression of a willingness to meet American representatives to talk over the conditions of peace negotiations.
“Proposals of this kind have been made
by various third parties from time to
time to Hanoi and there’s never been a
positive response on any of them until
this last response, which sounded positive
and I hope it is,” Katzenbach said.

Defense Secretary Clark M. Clifford
shared Katzenbach’s optimism that talks
could begin once propaganda campaigns
about selecting a site had run their course.
Nobel Peace Prize winner Lester Pearson urged the United States and its allies to avoid “putting obstacles in the
path of peace talks” but he blamed NoAV
Vietnam as much as the United States
for the haggling over a site.
Pearson also said in an interview that
Canada would be willing to provide
troops to police a Vietnam peace settlement.

Hanoi speaks

In its latest broadcast of an editorial
in the official Hanoi government newspaper, North Vietnam raised the same
charge, a lack of seriousness in expressed
willingness to meet, that State Department
officials raised against North Vietnam
The editorial said the American public
“now demands that the U.S. government
show its goodwill by stopping hindering
the contacts and accepting either Phnom
Penh or Warsaw as a place for contacts."
Those were the two sites earlier suggested
by the North Vietnamese.
A new objection was raised here to
Warsaw as a site. The issue of antiSemitism in Poland is said to be growing
in the dispute between Communist f ac'
tions for the leadership of Poland,
Anti-Semitism in Poland could fore 6
the United States to exclude from
military and diplomatic team to the miss
any aide of Jewish background, it was
said here.

TV. Korean attacks to continue
SEOUL (UPD—A leading expert on North
Korean affairs said early this week that
Communist armies will continue to stage
provocations along the truce lines in coming months and their main target will be
American troops.

The prediction came from Han Jae-duk,
who had served as the editor of the Minju
Chosun, the official newspaper of the
North Korean government. He defected to
South Korea by way of Japan in 1959.
The official newspaper of the North
Korean Communist aprty, Rodong Shinmoon, charged that the summit meeting
between President Johnson and President
Park Chung Hee were “talks for war from
beginning to end.”
Rodong Shinmoon said the JohnsonPark meeting in Hawaii “revealed to the
world the fact that the U.S. imperialists
are rushing headlong on the road to provocation of a new war in our conutry.”

States motives

Han said the North Koreans have several motives for staging such attacks on
American troops. Han said the main North
Korean purpose was to test U.S. reactions
and see how firm the United States would
stand against the Communists.
“The U.S. restraint shown in the case of
the Pueblo might have led the North Koreans to commit more provocations,” Han
said. He said the North Koreans believe
that only if the United States withdraws
from South Korea can the Communists
achieve military conquest of the South.
“The North Koreans believe that they
have military superiority over the South
and that they can take over the southern
half militarily if the United States does
not stand in their way,” Han said.
“Accordingly, they want to test the
United States with more provocations so
that they can be sure of what the Americans would do in case of their fullscale
thrust.”

eyerson finally approves 'wet campus
Drinking allowed in Norton, dorms
Alcoholic beverages are now permitted in Norton Hall,
the resident halls and the Faculty Club.
Announcement of the ‘wet campus’ policy has been
anticipated since the Council of the State University of Buffalo unanimously approved it in November.
President Martin Meyerson has delayed since March his
approval of the regulations presented by the Committee on
Alcoholic Beverages.

w-

Immediate action was not
possible until FSA lawyers
confirmed that the new policy would not “jeopardize application for a liquor license,”
Presidential Assistant Robert
O’Neil explained. It was a
“busy time of the year” when
many administrators were involved in next year’s budget
planning, he said.

Burgher Party elected;
voters cross party lines
The Burgher Party was swept into office by 2242 students who voted in the Student Association elections Monday
and Tuesday. Richard Schwab, Penny Bergman and Tracy
Cottone were elected president, first vice president and second vice president respectively.
Jairo Estrada, a Student New
Action Party candidate, was elected treasurer of the polity.

In addition to the officer positions, seven coordinator positions
were also filled by the election.
There was no sweep by any
of the parties that offered candidates for these positions, resulting in a mixed Coordinating
Council.

The new Student Services Coordinator is Barbara Emils on who
ran with the Initiative Party.
Miss Emilson will be joined on
the Coordinating Council by fellow successful IN Party
oandidates Nancy Coleman and
Paul
Hollander. Miss Coleman is the
New Student Affairs Coordinator
and Mr. Hollander will assume
the post of International
Affairs
Coordinator,

The Academic Affairs Coordinator is Harry Klein, the SNAP

candidate.
Another successful
candidate from that party was
Ellen Price, who is the new NSA
Coordinator.
The position of Public Relations Coordinator was won by Ted
Beringer of the Progressive-Action party. The final coordinator
position, Student Rights, will be
assumed by Fred Hollander, also
of Pro-Act.
The Elections Committee of the
Student Senate was chaired by
George Heymann and Robert
Kott. According to Mr. Kott, the
turnout for this year’s election
was below that of the previous
year. “Over 3000 students voted
in the elections last year, compared with slightly over 2200 this
year,” he said.

1968, but he is expected to maintain the representation of students, faculty and student personnel.
The Review Board will meet at
the end of April to consider extension of the liquor policy to
other areas of the campus. Pres-

ently, the campus buildings other

than the union and residence
halls are “dry.”
Faculty Student Association
lawyers are presently researching
the possibility of applying for a
liquor license to the State Liquor
Authority.
Possibilities include purchasing
a license which allows the sale

of beer in the rathskeller and

liquor in the Tiffin Room and the
Faculty Club,
Dr. Anthony Lorrenzetti, Dean

of Students, said that attorneys

Editorship
Applications for the editorship of The Spectrum
will be taken until April 20.

Alcoholic beverages will be allowed only in “Norton Hall and
in the residence halls,” Dr. Richard A. Siggelkow, vice-president
for student affairs, announced.
Regulations were determined
by the Norton Hall House Committee and the individual residence house councils.

Application forms are available at The Spectrum
office. Forms should be accompanied by a letter
stating qualifications, previous experience and reasons for desiring the position.

The Spectrum editorial board will interview
candidates at a later date.

Rules for Norton

Address letters of application tos. The Editor,
The Spectrum, 355 Norton Hall, SUNY at Buffalo,
14220.

The rules for the dormitories
outline the areas where alcohol
may be consumed. Violations will
be referred to the Inter-Residence

Judiciary.

In Norton Hall, individual students will not be allowed to
“bring their own” and drink anywhere within the student union.
Requests to serve alcoholic beverages at any function must be
made one week in advance. The
organization requests this permission of the House Committee.
These rules will be altered
when the Faculty Student Association purchases a license to
sell alcoholic beverages in Norton Hall.
Violators in Norton will be referred to the “appropriate authorities by the House Committee,”
chairman Philip Henry said. All
state and local laws concerning
alcoholic beverages will be in
effect at all times.
Directors of the Faculty Club
will set their own rules.

Review Board
The Committee on Alcoholic
Beverages, which drafted the regulations for liquor on campus,
will now serve as an Alcoholic
Review Board “pro tem.” President Meyerson will appoint a
new board before December,

Today Robert Kennedy is trying to prove that he can win in
a relatively conservative state
and, jimultaneously, deal a fatal
blow to tbe Presidential aspirations of Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy,
the only other announced candi-

date for the Democratic nomination.
The situation here is somewhat
complicated, however, by the fact
that the ballot also will carry the
name of the state’s popular governor, Roger D. Branigin, who is
running as a favorite son in the
hope of holding Indiana’s 63 votes
uncommitted until the nominating convention.

for

that Sen. Kennedy and his managers are peddling vigorously, is
that Gov. Branigin is a clear
favorite to win and that Kennedy
will have done well if he manages to outpoll Sen. McCarthy.
In fact, however, Democratic
professionals here have been telling Sen. Kennedy privately that
he has every reason to expect to
win a clear victory himself.
The last public opinion poll to
leak out here showed Gov. Branigin with 44%, Sen. Kennedy
with 42% and Sen. McCarthy a
poor third with 14%. But that
was taken while Gov. Branigin
was running as a stand-in candidate for President Johnson, who
has since withdrawn. And it was
taken before Sen. Kennedy began
his intensive campaigning here.
New surveys are under way
now, and the word being passed
privately to Sen. Kennedy is that
they will show him well ahead
of both the Governor and Sen.
McCarthy.
The New York senator already
has spent four or five days campaigning in the state, and plans
perhaps a dozen more in the less
than a month remaining until the
primary. In addition, he will
flood the state with television
advertising over the last two
weeks.
Sen. McCarthy obviously recognizes Kennedy’s strong (position
here. The Minnesota Democrat
has been deprecating the importance of the Indiana result, while
simultaneously stepping up his
own schedule here in the hope
of making at least a respectable

showing.
The one major, imponderable

in the situation is Vice President
Humphrey, who is expected to
emerge soon as the principal
opposition to Kennedy for the
nomination. Mr. Humphrey plans
to avoid entering any primaries
himself, but, once he declares
himself, Gov. Branigin may identify his candidacy as a stand-in
for Humphrey.
But the view of the professionals here—at the moment, at least
—is that Sen. Kennedy is likely
to win anyway.

WASHINGTON
The racial unrest smouldering in the nation’s
cities could be dangerously escalated if police are allowed to shoot
to kill or maim arsonists and looters, Atty. Gen. Ramsey Clark has
warned.
In an indirect clash with Mayor Richard J. Daley of Chicago over
his controversial order to his police force to shoot looters and
arsonists, Clark said that if police “overact” with excessive violence
during civil disorders, it would force more blacks to adopt “terrorist
and guerrilla tactics.”
Although Mayor Daley did not retreat from his hard line, his
statement to the city council was couched in milder terms than
his bitter off-the-cuff criticism of his own police Monday for not
using tougher tactics against rioters.

PANMUNJOM, Korea
An American admiral accused North
Korea in an icy confrontation yesterday of committing vicious and
savage acts by staging ambushes that left seven allied soldiers dead
during the past five days.
Stony-faced Maj. Gen. Pak Chung-kuk, a North Korean known
as “frog face” to the Americans, absorbed the brow-beating with his
usual lack'of emotion at a meeting at this Korean truce village.
Navy Rear Adm. John V, Smith made the accusations. Facing
Pak across a table, he protested an Easter Sunday ambush that took
the lives of two American and two South Korean soldiers only 1,000
yards from Panmunjom, the village where the Korean war armistice
was arranged 15 years ago.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.
Nationwide murder and conspiracy
warrants have been issued for Eric Starve Galt, a mysterious riverboat cook, merchant seaman and bartender accused in the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr..
The FBI charged Galt and his “alleged brother” in a warrant
Wednesday with conspiring to injure King, shot to death by a white
sniper in Memphis, Tenn., April 4. Memphis police later filed a
murder charge against Galt.
The FBI also released a photograph of Galt, 36, described as a
“loner" with a “rural quality" in his voice.

several speakers who will discuss
collective bargaining outlined in
the Taylor Act, at a special series

Opportunities and alternatives
for collective bargaining will be

unit for organizing under the provisions of the Taylor Act. The

is obligated under law to make
sure that such decisions are pos-

The various bargaining agents

Association of University Professors (AAUP).

An address by Mr. Richard Lipsitz on the “Legal Aspects of the
Taylor Act” at 1 p.m. in Butler

Auditorium, Capen Hail. His address will be followed by remarks
by Francis J. Higgins, counsel to
the Public Employee Relations
Board.

Small discussion groups led by
local neutral resource people,
such as attorneys and industrial
relations specialists will be held
from 2:30-3:30 p.m. in rooms 233,
234, 266, 330, 332, 334, 337 and
344, Norton Hall.
A Coffee Break will be held in
the Fillmore Room of Norton
Hall from 4-5 p.m.
Immediately following the coffee break, a panel discussion with
representatives from the University Senate, CSEA, FASUNY, AFT
and AAUP dealing with the philosophies of their respective organizations, will be held in the
Fillmore Room.

Cross-registration awaits approval
A cross-registration scheme, in the blueprint stage, may
soon give undergraduates at the State University of Buffalo
and the State University College at Buffalo an opportunity
to broaden their educations.

Pending approval by President
Martin Meyerson of this University, and President of State University College, E. K. Fretwell,
the program will be initiated next
semester.

President Meyerson said that
he encourages the program with
State College as well as with other campuses, but participation in
it should be left “to the discretion
of the instructor.”
He added that the matter may
have to be brought up before the

Faculty-Senate.
Six procedural guidelines have
been set up:
During the initial trial period,
a maximum of 200 students from
•

each institution should be permitted in the program. Bach stu-

dent should cross-register in only
one course per semester; no more
than two students could crossregister in any one course.
Students of the campus on
which the course is offered should
have precedence in enrollment.
On this campus, cross-registration
for the fall semester could be
accomplished in late April after
the close of pre-registration,
o Ample information concerning
course, prerequisites, instructors
and schedules should be available
at both institutions well in advance of the start of cross-registration. It is recommended that
a liaison officer on each campus
should be designated to assume
general responsibility over the
•

cross-registration program.

Seniors barred
Because of the contrasting calendars, seniors in their final semester should not be permitted to
•

cross-register.

Instructors should assign regular letter grades to cross-registered students. Students should,
however, have the option to elect
course on a pass-fail basis.
In that case, administrative procedures should be developed to
transform letter grades into their
•

pass-fail equivalents.

Formal statements should be
available for transmittal to draft
boards and to the Board of Regents, should questions arise
about the full-time status of
cross-registered students. (Questions might, for example, be
raised about a cross-registered
student’s continuing eligil ibility
for a Scholar Incentive Awa ard).

Sunday will mark the first anniversary of the military
junta that has brought the little Mediterranean country to

the height of totalitarianism. Frequent arrests with indefinite detention without charges or trial, exile and deportation, total press censorship and the maltreatment of political
prisoners are all symptoms of the sickness that has permeated
the nation.

«r. t

The regime reacted by arresting hundreds of students
and closing the University of Salonica. A communique, issued
by a group of students who call themselves the Antidictatorial
Student Organization in Greece, states: “No official confirmation of the arrests was made, and the government is trying
to keep the whole matter as secret as possible.”
The arrested students have disappeared. It is known
that torture is being used on political prisoners, and since
there is no official recognition of the arrests, the government feels no responsibility for the physical disappearance
of prisoners.
The people of Greece are in desperate need of aid.
American students should express their concern about the
despotic conditions that plague the Greek citizenry. The
United States should no longer do business in any way with
the military regime, and the United Nations should begin
to apply international pressure to regain a democratic state
in Greece.

History has shown that it is no easy task to replace a
military regime with a democratic government. The people
of Greece are making a valiant and determined effort. No
freedom-loving man can ignore that effort.

The dizzying pace of national politics the past
two weeks has resulted in an apocryphal sigh from
a sagacious observer last Friday. And no one was
sure whether the full eclipse of the moon visible
to North America April 12 was a wink of understanding, or a wince; of pain.
A medieval myth calls the orange-shadowed
moon in a full eclipse a “bloody moon,” a symbol
of foreboding and death. Legend has it that the
last time a full lunar eclipse occurred in the Western world on Good Friday the Black Plague descended upon Europe. This time the mystics of the
world are having a heyday.
Once again, the eclipse occurred on Good (also
known as “Black”) Friday. Its fullness was visible
only to a country ravaged the preceding week by
the fires of civil disorders, in the wake of assasination and funeral of the country’s foremost black
leader.

Whatever the death-dealing plague is that

Corrects misconception
To the Editor:
Charles E. Brown, in his letter to the Editor
March 22, is amazed al the sex misconceptions of
his fellow students. I am amazed at his, especially
with regard to the topic of syphilis.
Syphilis may be acquired in two ways, through
intercourse, or congenitally, through invasion of the
placenta to the fetus, during pregnancy.
Congenital syphilis occurs only if the pregnant
mother contracts the disease after the fourth
month of pregnancy. The infant is born with a
generalized rash, saddle deformity of the nose,
sabre shin, liver damage, and there may also be
cardiovascular and neurologic damage. However
this form is treatable by penecillin. This affliction
of the infant is not transmittable genetically and
if the infant lives, his progeny will be normal, not
the six generations of disease as Mr. Brown would
like us to believe. If Mr. Brown doesn’t believe me
on these facts I refer him to Bobbin’s Pathology,
Third Ed. published by Saunders, where he may
read it for himself.
I cannot comment on the remainder of his article for I would not have references to back my
statements. True contraceptives are not infallable,
as Mr. Brown states, but the “pill” has a failure
rate of only 0.2 pregnancies per 100 woman-years
(for a reference point—no contraception 115 pregnancies per 100 woman-years). One might say that’s
a pretty good protection rate. This is from notes
from the State University of Buffalo Pharmacology
Department.

Mr, Brown’s letter reminded me of two frauds

beginnings of these gropings
a pre-LBJ withdrawal conversation in
which it was submitted that if I were really a liberal I should immediately cut my hair, shave, and
go out and start ringing doorbells for the candidate
of my choice—as long as I chose Kennedy or
McCarthy of course.
To do this, a certain great amount of faith is
needed. For example, to say that “The Vietnam
War is a bad thing” would probably be a statement
many people could agree with, for various reasons.
If you rephrase this somewhat to “The Vietnam
War is an evil and criminally stupid act which
could only be perpetrated by a society with the
same characteristics,” you are no longer involved
in responsible dissent, your are now a radical
fringe lunatic.
To me the Kennedy-McCarthy-Johnson-NixonRockefeller-Wallace froo-frah can be viewed as a
fascinating tribal rite. Who gets to wear the ostrich plume, so to speak. A rite which may go far
in deciding the current state of aberration in this
society, and how long it stands, to be sure. But to
assume that the coming election will result in
great and final changes requires a faith I do not
have. It is beyond me to see how a leader can do
more than superficially change the society unless
he changes the people, or gives them what they
want while changing.
I give an alternative explanation of the fervor
of the anti-war groups for your consideration. It
is all right to worry about big problems in this society—The War, The Ghetto Problem, as long as
you do not attempt to suggest that these are but

may not even be soluable. I would argue that

example the War.

Dr. Siggelkow said: “Some people have expressed fear that liberalization on the policy concerning alcoholic beverages could be
construed as an endorsement of
their use by the University. The
change, which is in concert with
other public and private educational institutions, is not to be
considered an official endorsement, approval or encouragement
of drinking by the University.”

Ralph Nader to speak
at convention in Buffalo
controversial book Unsafe at
Any Speed, and dubbed by Newsweek “Everyman’s Self-Appointed
Lobbyist,” will be the guest
speaker at the American Society
of Mechanical Engineers’ (ASME)
Regional Convention held here
today and tomorrow. Mr. Nader
will speak at 8 p.m. tonight in
the Fillmore Room on the topic,
“Engineering the Engineer.”
Free tickets are available at
the Norton Ticket Office.
Working for consumer protection, Mr. Nader was the inspiration for the auto safety legislation passed by Congress last year
over objections from Detroit car
manufacturers. Now acknowledged as a modern-day muckraker, he continues his campaign
for what he calls “the qualitative
reform of the industrial revolution.”

The “lobbyist” has drawn public attention to various consumer
problems ranging from the toohigh price of automobiles to toolow meat content in hot dogs.

A graduate of Harvard Law
School, he denies that his work
is an attempt to threaten private
enterprise or big business. He
says: “It’s just the opposite. It’s

enterprise

economy by

making

the market work better; an attempt to preserve democratic
control of technology by giving
government a role in the decision-making process.”
The two-day conference of
ASwiri members will be hosted
by the State University of Buffalo student chapter. Colleges and
universities will be represented
at the sessions which are scheduled to begin this morning.
Besides Mr. Nader’s address,
the program for the conference
will include presentation of papers, business meetings, a trip
to the Robert Moses Power Plant
in Niagara Falls, and an awards
luncheon.
Dr. F. Karl Wiillenbrock, provost of the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences, will

welcome the group at its opening
session.

Kaleidoscope '68
by Lori Pendys
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Kaliedoscope ’68! A potpourri of fun,
games, laughs, and all-around good tiimes
for three days.
That is the aim of Spring Weekend,
May 3 to 5.
The array of events is very diversified.
It includes a concert by Dionne Warwick,
a semi-formal dance, a concert by “Your
Father’s Mustache,” showings of “The
Knack . . . and How To Get It,” elections
for Queen and Mr, Faculty, a carnival
and assorted other contests and activities.

Dionne Warwick

will be featured here during up-coming
Spring Weekend.
Dionne Warwick, famous rhythm-andblues vocalist, will grace Clark Gym Friday evening at 8:30. She reached her
present peak of poularity with hits such
as “Don’t Make Me Over,” “Anyone Who
Had A Heart,” “Alfie,” “Say A Little
Prayer for Me,” and the “Theme from
Valley of the Dolls.”

In 1967 Miss Warwick was voted number one rhythm-and-blues singer and number two pop singer by the Annual Cash
Box Best Recording Artist poll and also
was number six on the Playboy Jazz
Poll. “The Magnificent Men,” a new soul
group, are also included on the concert’s
program.

“Your Father’s Mustache,” a banjo-playing, barber-garbed, mustached (naturally),
sing-along band, fresh from the nightclub
of the same name in New York, will perform May 2 in the Fillmore Room. “The
Mustache” sings the latest hits of the

1920s and ’30s and makes the audience
music, stamp their feet and
clap their hands. It is the type of concert
one can have fun at and then write home
about to bring memories back to sweet
old Mom and Dad.
Starting Thursday of the weekend, showings of “The Knack . . . and How To Get
It” will be presented in the Conference
Theater. The zany, British comedy stars
Rita Tushingham and describes the problems and determination involved in achieving the Knack.
Leisureland in Hamburg, New York,
will be the location of the Spring Weekend Dance. C. Q. Price and his twelvepiece band will be featured.
C. Q. spent 15 years with Count Basie
and his orchestra as did some of the
other members of the Price band.
There will be a faculty reception at
8 p.m. preceding the dance at 9 p.m.

Dance.

Many other more casual festivities are
also sprinkled over the weekend.
A carnival, with ferris wheel, merrygo-round, twisting airplanes and other
stiimulating or pacifying (depending on
one’s normal state) amusements will be
offered.
It will take place at the parking field
at Main and Bailey, so if you drive, get
to school early.

Wild English Comedy, "The Knack
and how to get it" will be
shown in Conference Theatre, starting Thursday
of Spring Week-

The Freshman Council is sponsoring a
“Carwhaek.” What’s a Carwhack? It is the
opportunity to release anxieties, frustrations, sexual build-ups and other assorted
emotions by whacking (with a hammer to
avoid blistered palms) an old, beat-up
car.

The chance to take part in this merry-

making will offer itself on the carnival
grounds.
Various sporting events will also avail

themselves.
The 16th Annual Invitational University
of Buffalo Track Meet will take place
Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m. at Rotary

Field.

Less legitimate sports events include
the Commuter Council tug-of-war, an intermural football game and a tricycle

race.

The tug-o-war will be Friday at 2 p.m.
on the Tower lawn, and the Trike race

will be Saturday in the Tower parking
lot at 1:30 p.m.
Sunday there will be an outdoor band
concert, on Baird lawn at 3 p.m,, for
those who are more culturally inclined
or like rolling in the grass.
For those who are pre-occupied with
satiating their appetites, an outdoor barbeque lunch and dinner will be held on
the Tower lawn Friday. For those who
are looking for new and different ways
to attain nourishment a watermelon eati. g contest will take place Saturday at
noon on the Tower lawn.
The weekend will be highlighted by
fireworks on Sunday evening. Sponsored
by the Inter-residence Council the fireworks will be held at dusk on the lawn
in front of Clark Gym.
Over-all Spring Weekend sounds like
it could be a lot of fun but one wonders
how the gardeners will feel on Monday.

Both he and Mr. Creeley are
contributors to the magazine.

area writers. This
first edition of the new quarterly
may be purchased in the University Bookstore and at various
shops in the Allentown district
of downtown Buffalo.
The editor of this recent anthology is Mark Robison, an undergraduate English major at the
State University of Buffalo.
Robert Creeley, noted poet and
Professor of English, is the magazine’s adviser.

Some other contributors include
such notables as Ginsberg, MacAdams and John Logan.
“The primary function of the
magazine though,” says Mark
Robinson, “is to provide a catalyst or means of media for the
good literary people on the Buffalo scene.”
He emphasized that its primary
reason for existence is to bring to
light unknown talent in the area.

work,” he said, “in order to in-

“We are looking for all kinds
of literary pieces, such as poetry,
plays, radio scripts, critiques and
even related works of art from

other media.
“Contributors may submit material to Mr. Creeley or myself
in care of the English Department, Annex B, Trailer Complex,”
continued Mr. Robinson.
The second reason for the inception of thi- collection of writings is to familiarize the citizenry
of Buffalo with the various genre
of expressions and attitudes in
today’s literary works.

“Through Anonym," explained
Robinson, “we hope to promote a better understanding of

Mr,

Buffalo community and provide
and avenue of expression for area
writers, instead of having them
seek other opportunities to publish their works outside the city.”

Anonym will be used to publish
one or two books a year that
focus entirely on the talents of
one individual writer. Also, poets
Creeley and Robert Duncan will

of the summer to help finance

Anonym will have a summer

the spectrum of

or ts

by Danny Edelman
Assistant Sports Editor

All good things have to come to an end and unfortunately that
includes Easter vacations.
One returns to the hallowed halls of this megaversity to make an
amazing and earth-shattering discovery that grass can and does grow
in Buffalo.
This one fact alone is enough for me to end this feeble attempt
at a column and go out and enjoy the grass. Unhappily for me (and
maybe for you) I can’t.
This time of the year is a very busy one in the sports world. One
needs only to walk over in the vicinity of Clark Gym to find out.
The baseball team, under new head coach Bill Monkarsh, opened
its 1968 season this week.
Doc Urioh’s boys are huffing and puffing as spring football practice enters its second week.
The trackmen and the tennis squads are getting ready for their
seasons. And last but not least, the rowing team opened its season
Saturday at Cornell.
Whoa there! You mean to say that the State University of Buffalo
has a rowing team? I don’t believe it.
Neither did this writer until he was duly informed last week.
Here for the first time in print is the complete and unabridged story
about the State University of Buffalo rowing team.
It started with an announcement from the athletic department
asking for all those interested in collegiate rowing to meet at such
and such a time at such and such a place.
A few curious people got together and the rowing team was
formed.
Under Coach John Benett’s direction, practice was begun and
fundamentals were learned. With the exception of one person, none
of the boys had ever been associated with a crew.
In their first race or regatta, as they are called, in the Spring
’67 the team was victorious over Buffalo State, winning the Buffalo
State Invitational Trophy. Later in the fall, the Blue-and-White faced
the same team but this time they lost.
The crew has faced numerous difficulties since its inception.
Since it has the status of a club, the obvious problem is one of money.
The team is forced to be satisfied with make-shift equipment and
uniforms. We may have the only crew team in the country which
competes in worn-out wrestling jerseys.
The crew members must drive to the rowing clubhouse near the
Peace Bridge at their own expense. (After all, you need water to
practice on.) Practice is held six days a week from five to eight in
the evening. With all these problems its no wonder that the turnover
on the squad is so high.
Only Gabe Ferber and Bill Kapa remain from the original group.
This spring the crew is undertaking its most ambitious schedule
in this, its second season.
Included on the schedule are the Cornell and Syracuse frosh as
well as traditional local foes, Buffalo State and Oanisius.
■Rungs are looking up for the team as a little money has started
to trickle down to them. A great deal of credit must be given
to the
Wes'lside Rowing Club under whose auspices the club is sponsored
and who has provided the team with shells and oars.
But the fact remains that no team or club that is representing
this University should have to undergo the hassles that the crew team
has had to undergo. They have existed in complete obscurity since
the
beginning. No publicity and just the minimal of help.
But as one of the members said to me, “If you win you really
don’t care that nobody knows it; you know it and that’s enough.”
Best of luck, Gabe and to the entire team for a successful
second

Baseball Bulls start regular season
by Rich Baumgarten

The 1968 Baseball Bulls, returning from their first Southern tour,
played host Monday to ECTT in
their Clark Field opener. Weather permitting, the Bulls visit
EXITI in the return match of a
home-and-home series.
The “Hardballers,” who were
originally scheduled to play 14
games, saw their road trip end
abruptly due to a combination of

inclement weather and Martin Luther King's assassination.

However, the team did manage
to get in 6 games, posting a
respectable 3-2-1 record. Included
in the Bulls’ three wins were two
thumpings of Huntington College
of Montgomery, Alabama by
scores of 8-1 and 6-4, and a 4-3
win over Burlington Southern.
Buffalo suffered defeats by
Troy, Alabama (6-4) and Tennesee A&amp;I (8-7).
In the opening game of the
week-long trip the Bulls battled
the same Tennessee team to a
ten inning 13-all tie, in a real
slugfest called because of darkness.

Rick Wells, senior from Ithaca,
led the Bulls in batting down
South.
The three-sport athlete (football, basketball, and baseball) hit
a sizzling .465 for the six games,
a streak which included several
key triples. Seniors Ken Rutkowski and Brian Hansen also found

For the baseballers

who lost

only one game last season en
route to a 16-1 mark, the two
Dixie defeats were a bit dismaying.

But new head coach Bill Monkarsh took the Bulls’ two southern losses in stride. “We made
some mental errors, which comes
from not being ready,” said Monkarsh. “As soon as we gain a
little more confidence from playing together as a team, we’ll
really start to jell,” he said.
Monkarsh then listed his probable starting lineup for this
week’s slate of games.
Hansen, the senior catcher from
Detroit, who has batted over .500
the last two seasons, will again
be behind the plate.

What a difference a

makes!

Monday afternoon head tennis
coach Bill Sanford was going for
his 200th coaching win against
Erie County Technical Institute,
but much to his dismay his team

lost a heart-breaker to the visiting Knights, 5-4.

and ask for Mrs. Farewell.

Who was the greatest of the English Romantic Poets—
or Keats? This question has given rise to
many lively campus discussions and not a few stabbings.
Let us today try to find an answer.
First, Keats (or The Louisville Slugger, as he is commonly called.) Keats’ talent bloomed early. While still a
schoolboy at St. Swithin’s he wrote his epic lines:
If I am good I get an apple,
So I don’t whistle in the chapel.
From this distinguished beginning he went on to write
another 40 million poems, an achievement all the more remarkable when you consider that he was only five feet
tall! I mention this fact only to show that physical problems never keep the true artist from creating. Byron, for
example, was lame. Shelley suffered from prickly heat all
winter long. Nonetheless, these three titans of literature
never stopped writing poetry for one day.
Nor did they neglect their personal lives. Byron, a devil
with the ladies, was expelled from Oxford for dipping
Nell Gwynne’s pigtails in an inkwell. (This later became
known as Guy Fawkes Day.) He left England to fight in
the Greek war of independence. He fought bravely and
well, but women were never far from his mind, as evidenced by these immortal lines:
How splendid it is to fight for the Greek,
But I don’t enjoy it half as much as dancing cheek to
Byron, Shelley

cheek.

While Byron fought in Greece, Shelley stayed in England, where he became razor sharpener to the Duke of
Gloucester. Shelley was happy in his work, as we know
from his classic poem, Hail to thee, blithe strop, but no
matter how he tried he was never able to get a proper edge
on the Duke’s razor, and he was soon banished to
Coventry. (This later became known as The Industrial

Revolution.)
One wonders how Shelley’s life-and the course of English poetry-would have differed if Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades had been invented 200 years earlier. For
Personna is a blade that needs no stropping, honing or
whetting. It’s sharp when you get it, and sharp it stays
through shave after luxury shave. Here truly is a blade
fit for a Duke or a freshman. Moreover, this Personna,
this jewel of the blade-maker’s art, this boon to the cheek
and bounty to the dewlap, comes to you both in doubleedge style and Injector style. Get some now during “Be
Kind to Your Kisser Week.”
But I digress. Byron, I say, was in Greece and Shelley
in England. Meanwhile Keats went to Rome to try to
grow. Who does not remember his wistful lyric;
Although I am only five feet high,
Some day I will look in an elephant's eye.
But Keats did not grow. His friends, Shelley and Byron,
touched to the heart, rushed to Rome to stretch him. This
tod failed. Then Byron, ever the ladies man, took up with
Lucrezia Borgia, Catherine of Aragon, and Annie Oakley.
Shelley, a more domestic type, stayed home with his wife
Mary and wrote his famous poem:
I love to stay home with the missus and write,
And hug her and kiss her and give her a bite.

Mary Shelley finally got so tired of being bitten that
room and wrote Frankenstein.
Upon reading the manuscript, Shelley and Byron got so
scared they immediately booked passage home to England. Keats tried to go too, but he was so small that the
clerk at the steamship office couldn’t see him over the top
of the counter. So Keats remained in Rome and died of

Byron and Shelley cried a lot and then together composed this immortal epitaph:
Good old Keats, he might have been short,
But he was a great American and a heck of a good sport.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Director Joseph Vetter, a

controversial figure in area

Dr. Adler criticizes U.S. foreign
policy, urges 'more prudent' course
Dr. Selig Adler recently told a University of North
“a
dangerous mood of isolationism” in the United States.
Addressing a University-wide

lecture at Chapel Hill, N.C. earlier this month, the State University of Buffalo professor said:
“The threat today is that the
pendulum against global meddling could swing so far in the
opposite direction that in the
future we may refrain from intervention in situations where
such action would be fully warranted by a clear and present
danger to our vital interests.”
The “stem demand for overhaul,” he said, stems from “domestic turmoi 1,” the “shrill
abuse” wrought by our “erstwhile
allies,” and from the Vietnam
War.
Dr. Adler called the war “the
most egregious blunder of modem times.”

Outmoded policy
Probing factors that have “outmoded our policy of containment,” Dr. Adler said that “all
knowledgeable men realize that
the Communist threat is not the
grand plot it appeared” in the
late ’40s.
“We have learned in country
after country, beginning with
Tito’s defection of 1948, that
when a piece of real estate goes
Communist, that does not mean
necessarily a threat to the security of the United States or the
end of all hopes of betterment
for the people involved,” he said.
Dr. Adler compared the current situation with that of 1914,
“when no -power really wanted
war, yet no one knew how to
prevent it”
“Our best hope for peace today,
perhaps our only hope, is a
genuine detente with Russia . .
he said.

Lists examples
He listed many signs pointing
resurgence of isolationism,
including the “explosion in the
Senate” last July when President
Johnson sent three transport
planes to the aid of Congolese
President Mobutu; Sen. Fulbright’s resolution
demanding
congressional approval for a
deeper overseas commitment: the
recent reduction of foreign aid
to its lowest level in two decades,
and the “prevailing intellectual
ferment” among revisionist historians.
Urging that the United States
“reduce her perimeter of defense,
plus curb the habit of policing
the world,” Dr. Adler said that
“our present frustrations have led
to some very reckless proposals.

The Spectrum last week that
telephone operation was being completed so that the

“The country is filling up with

In the past, the center has come
under a great deal of criticism
from professional social welfare
agencies for its “unorthodox”
methods of dealing with the people it serves. Up to 60% of its
staff is made up of volunteers
who at one time bad come to the
center for help themselves. Mr.
Vetter, a former alcoholic, feels
that this fact has made it easier
for the center to talk with people
who have called in for help.

Urges new policy
The Samuel P. Capen professor
of American History felt that
“regardless of the outcome in
Vietnam, eventually we will formulate a new policy” which will be
“much more cautious and discriminating in the granting of
foreign aid” and “more prudent”
in our foreign commitments.

Dr. Adler urged a policy which
would be “a choice between isolationism and universalism, an option between concerning ourselves with nothing that happens
beyond this hemisphere and butting our noses into all quarrels
no matter how remote.”

also talked! with homosexuals,
drug addicts, alcoholics, unwed
mothers, students who were finding it too hard to keep up with
school and anyone else who was
looking for someone to talk to.

United Fund aid refused

The center was deeply in debt
when it was evicted from its former location at 1361 Main St. Mr.

Vetter turned to the United Fund
for aid, but his application was
turned down. Consequently he
sought out private contributors,
and eventually was able to pay
off his $1100 phone bill.
According to Mr. Vetter, the
center will remain open without
the help of any professional agencies “even if we have to halfstarve ourselves. If the Good Lord
wills it, we will continue our
work.” The center will now stand
only on private contributions.
Mr. Vetter told The Spectrum
that while the center was closed,
he received many phone calls at
his home from people who were
in need of someone to talk to. In
addition, he has received many
requests from other locations asking for information on suicide

prevention.

back into operation. The center
screens 50 applications for every
one it accepts. All volunteers
must undergo two interviews and
60 hours of training. Professional
agencies have called the volunteers “the blind leading the
blind,” but Mr. Vetter has measured his success in the large
numbers of people who turn to
the center for help .

David Cornberg named new student
administrative assistant forbookstore
the community will cooperate so

David Cornberg, a gradubeen appointed to the newly
created position of student
administrative assistant for
the University Bookstore.
The position was created by
George Bielan, general manager
of the University stores. The job
was established with the approval
and encouragement of Dr. Claude
Puffer, University vice president
for Business Affairs.

Mr. Cornberg expressed the
goal of the position as “researching and articulating the problems of the University stores
without creating a fruitless controversy.”

Position's functions
Cited as the functions of the
position are public relations, planning and trouble-shooting. Indicating the bookstore is trying to

“establish communication with
its most persistent critics,” Mr.
Cornberg said it wants to “change
the posture of communications
from taking sides to articulating
shared problems and searching
together for solutions.”
The bookstore is currently investigating the planning of both
the interim and Amherst campuses. This investigation will discover whether the planning that
is a source of problems for the
Imiversity stores is being repeated on the new campuses.
As a trouble-shooter, the student administrator will be posing questions for the community
at large. A specific problem in
this area cited by Mr. Cornberg
is the relation between campus
authors and the University Book-

store.

David Cornberg
University Bookstore Student
Administrative Assistant
The problem arose, firstly, because there is not enough space
to display and stock books required and demanded by all the
store’s customers, he explained.
Customers include students and
faculty from CanisiUs, Rosary
Hill, D’Youville, Buffalo high

schools and other Buffalo citizens.
A second reason involves the
requests from University departments for the bookstore to display the works of more campus
authors, without considering the
problem of space.

Questionnaire
To elicit suggestions from the
customers, a questionnaire will

be distributed in the bookstore

and also printed in The Spectrum.
Commenting on the questionnaire,

The return from the work is better University store facilities for

Mr. Cornberg completed his
undergraduate studies at Stanford University. He is currently
on medical leave from graduate
study.

He became interested in problems of the University stores
after he offered to aid the bookstore in obtaining books written

in foreign languages. Finding
intriguing and curious situations
in the problems of administration,
he worked with Mr. Bielan to
set up a position that would deal
with problems taking into account administrative, faculty and

store.

Events surrounding the assassination of Dr. Martin

The telegram expresses our sentiments well. Bound
in that concise statement are two things: Sorrow resulting
from the untimely death of Dr. King, and a determination
to continue toward the goals he espoused.
The violence that plagued scores of American cities after
the assassination came as an angered response to the wasteful murder. But that violence was also a repudiation of the
course which Dr. King advocated. The destruction that
occurred, the deaths that resulted and the losses that were
sustained must also bb seen as wasteful.

Criticizes Spectrum coverage
To the Editor:

Although we are very appreciative of The Spectrum’s endorsement of ourselves and our party, I
am very disappointed with your coverage of the
Student Association elections.

The Spectrum has been both objective and fair
this year in presenting news and issues facing
students. Unfortunately, these journalistic qualities
were absent in Friday’s issue. The Spectrum permitted itself to sacrifice “good journalism” by
extending its editorial power to endorse candidates

to extreme proportions.
The Spectrum was unfair. It was unfair because: All candidates were not introduced (some
were omitted entirely, others received little coverage in pictures or personal statements); the layout
obviously reflected “The Spectrum Executive Editors” preferences from pages X through 10; and
the entire paper was so seemingly designed to
ruin the parties and candidates not endorsed by

those editors. It was slanted and biased where it
should have been serving its function as the only
newspaper on campus.

.

Voting is going on all day today until 5 p.m. Voting
machines are located in the center lounge in Norton Hall,
as well as in Tower and Goodyear.
Your vote today can determine a year of student policy.
You don’t have to wait until the Polity convenes to make
your opinions known. You can begin to exert your influence
today. Be sure to vote now.

Series recalls Ramparts Week
A lecture series that brings to mind last year’s Ramparts
Week has been planned by the Graduate Student Association,
The series, which begins tonight and continues through
April 25, is co-sponsored by the GSA and the Student Association.
All of the lectures should be informative and interesting.
The range of topics touches upon many of the crucial issues
that confront the nation: The urban crisis, the black liberation movement, the goals of the New Left, the war in Vietnam and American foreign policy.
Three of the speakers—John Gerassi, Robert Sheer and
Eldridght Cleaver—write or edit for Ramparts. Thomas
Hayden and Carl Oglesby are both past presidents of national
Students for a Democratic Society. Howard Zinn, the final
speaker, is a professor of government at Boston University.
These six men, beginning with Mr. Hayden tonight,
should be heard and listened to. We anticipate stimulating
discussions, and urge students to attend as many of the
lectures as possible. More detailed information about the
lectures and the speakers appears in today’s Spectrum.

The DAV,

ense tags that fit on key rings. If anyone finds a set
of tagged keys, he can drop it in a mailbox and the
DAV will see that it is returned to the owner.
Allen told me that in 1967 the DAV returned
40.952 sets of lost keys.
The American motorist obviously is in a terrible
dilemma. If he leaves his keys, his car gets stolen
and he starts some good, clean, wholesome teen-age
hoodlum on the road to crime. If he removes the
keys, he loses them.

RFK 'emotional, not intellectual'
To the Editor
It is disappointing to read about students wanting to return to the New Frontier. (Birchers want
to return to the Founding Fathers). But we must
look to the future with imaginative and original
thinking. Sen. Kennedy has emotional, not intellectual, appeal.
He has already established a credibility gap. Not
until after the New Hampshire primary did he see
that “our nation faces the greatest crisis in 100
years,” Before the N.H. primary he feared only a
“personality clash” with LBJ as the main issue.
Sen. Kennedy has done nothing noteworthy on
his own and were he not the brother of a beloved
president he would not be noticed except for favoring “bugs” and “phone taps” while in a position of
power as Attorney General.

have, of necessity, evolved: 1) the patient is tranquilized to the point where he becomes “manageable,” 2) he is placed on a chair in front of a
television set for hours at a time, 3) the ward attendant conducts an occasional “democratic meeting” during which supplies of fresh socks and
cigarettes are checked, 4) the patient is kept calm
by limiting his contact with outside agitating in-

disease which kept me in the- infirmary for two
days this week. Considering my state of health, the
infirmary was as nice a place to be in as I could
imagine; but I still feel weak from not eating for
a couple of days, so try to understand if this effort
isn’t as flowing as usual.
Today (Friday, when my column is due) is also
my anniversary. Denise and I have been going out
for a year and I’ve promised her some space for
practically that whole time. Today seems as fitting
as ever to write about her not only because of the
calendar but also because the State of the World

is only adding to my already mounting nausea.

There are some practical considerations to be
made however. I am supposed to write a campus
column and I have been asked by quite a few
people to mention the elections on campus even

Asks disease demonstrations

The death of Martin Luther King shocked all of us and
surprised none of us; the resignation of Lyndon Johnson
surprised almost all of us, but in his cynical eulogy for the
apostle of non-violence, managed to shock us too.

To the Editor:
With regard to protestors I would suggest that
they make less love and more sense. At least if
they are going to protest, let their expostulations
and marches be for something relevant.
Why don’t they march against the greatest
killer of all, heart disease, since it takes 850,000
lives a year" Or how about some concerted action
against our number two killer, cancer, which
itself
accounts for 17% of all deaths or 310,000 deaths
a year. Why don’t they march against the Government, in order to raise the necessary funds to
combat these diseases?
For a country as medically advanced as ours,
our medical men and health services in general
are still embarrassed that we remain 11th in the
world as far as infant mortality is concerned.
Where are the protestations against the other
hideous killers, such as air pollution and water
pollution? There are dangerous quantities of sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxide and acrolein in the
air, which according to experts are deadly.
How about our children. One in 900 is born
with cancer. One out of every 50 is born with
epilepsy. One out of every 10,000 is born with
P.K.U. One out of every 800 has mongolism (live
births). The greatest single cause of maternal
deaths is from abortion (21%).
After all this, where can any protestor find a
more relevant and justifiable cause?
FRANK J. GIGLIOTTI

Of King’s death there is not
much to say that hasn’t been said
after the violent deaths of all our
Jesuses and Gandhis. The message of American labor leader
Joe Hill and the founders of
Christianity was the same: “Don’t
mourn, organize,” and that burden falls upon black and white
militants and followers of King
equally. It might be pointed out
that there was much substance in
the welcome of King by Stokely
Carmichael after King’s speech in
the Riverside Church denouncing
the war in Vietnam. Undeniably
King was essentially a liberal reformer who did not challenge the
basic economic system of America
as Carmichael has, but the argument that reformers weaken revolutionaries’ goals can hardly be
valid in King’s case. He was one
of the greatest of Americans
who did indeed “have a dream”
for this country, who was motivated by a love for all of us and
an anger at the awful disparity
between what is and what should

King’s historical role was a necessary first step in the move of
black people toward freedom and
self-determination. Revolution is
born of hope, not despair, and
King with his courage and determination provided the spark
for a people who will change the
share of a nation. Civil rights
bills such as last Wednesday’s
housing act do not themselves
“change the shapes of nations,”
but fighting for the political and
social equalities for men of all
classes does not mean that one is
fighting for the maintenance of a

Quotes in

class society.
On the questions of violence
and racism, King and Carmichael
were, when at their best, I think,
very similar. King preached nonviolence, but like Gandhi he knew
that non-violence can be a weapon only of the strong and determined against a rational enemy. Violent resistance to oppression is better than none at all,
King agreed, but in the context
of his liberal struggle, it would
be an ineffective tool. Black
power, Carmichael has explained
all too many times, does not
mean “get you some guns.” It is
an intricate (and often attacked
from the left) position which
stresses black control of the black
community and is somewhat incomplete in dealing with the larger questions of capitalism vs. socialism. Yet after King’s assassination, the media said nothing
of Carmichaers activities other
than that he harangued a crowd
to get “revenge” and to “exterminate” whites. The quotes were
cited alone and are probably out
of context.
Carmichael’s tag ending to any
of his demands is “by any means
necessary,” It doesn’t mean he
advocates violence; it means exactly what it says: if necessary,
we’ll use it. But who is “we?”
Primarily blacks, but like King,
Carmichael, though motivated by
hatred for the many cops who
have beat him and his brothers,
has his eye on an alliance with
poor and working class Americans. He too has a dream for all
of us, and it unites him with King
as a great leader.

The only thing I feel quite strongly about is
that the New Campus Alliance Party MUST NOT
win. Mr, Marsh is heading a party and a concept
which is very dangerous to the University. There
are several candidates in that party that also must
be defeated. Of those I know personally, Mr. Sickler
and Mr. Beck are poor, at best.
These are my only strong feeling about the
elections. The student body will not be adversely
affected if Dick Miller or Rick Schwab wins. Both
will make good presidents, and I don’t feel The
Spectrum’s endorsement of Schwab over Miller
reflected closeness of their abilities.

Mr. Miller has grown with his involvement in
government and probably will continue to do so.
He has spoken out on vital issues and often says
intelligent things. Mr. Schwab also is aware of the
University and would do about as good a job. The
real problem with these elections is that the
platforms and the parties and the choosing is crap.
They don’t ever reflect the differences that mean
anything. But that’s another issue.

For the above reasons precisely, I can’t get
excited about Nixon or Rockefeller, or Kennedy
or McCarthy. But now that I have shifted to the
national scene, the thing that profoundly bothers
me about the humble Mr. Johnson is that it takes
so little for a nation to weep for a murderer.
And speaking of murderers, it seems it happened
again. Our greatly advanced and civilized society

has had another brother slain and somehow the
assassin(s) got away with it. Many of us knew Mr.
King wouldn’t live out his “natural” life
what
upsets me so very much though is that we only
get angry about it after it happens.
—

And if the FBI can tap my phone for six months
because I smoke the weed, but can’t be alert enough
to, if not prevent, at least catch, an assassin, I
think old facist Hoover should re-evaluate who his
enemies are.

In New York City, more than 100 people called
the American Broadcasting System the night King
was murdered to protest the network’s cutting the
last several minutes of -the “Bewitched” show to
discuss the murder.
NBC got about 50 calls for the same reason
when “Dragnet” was pre-empted. In all, New York
City TV stations got about 250 calls.

The company which Siggelkow and O’Neil allowed on campus, the Army Material Command,
made the news over the holidays. They killed more
than 6400 sheep at the Dugway Proving Ground in
Utah. They died from an Army nerve gas. They
died a day after the area and hay the sheep eat
were prayed from a plane. Quoting from the New
York Post on April 3, 1968, “the question of whether
the nerve gas killed the sheep still remains unanswered, though we are highly suspect.”
And when I turn on my television set in August
to watch the Democratic Convention in Chicago,
I’ll see all my friendly Democrats singing “Happy
days are here again.” Maybe they’ll even feel
sympathetic and Mr. Johnson will reconsider and
we can all enjoy the benefits of that Great Society,
just like it was in the good old days.
Maybe I’ll feel better next week,

Six

Inter-Residence Judiciary changes

appointment procedure, court structure
The inter-Kesadenoe

Judiciary,

will begin its third year in September with changes in appointment procedure of upper court
judges and in the structure of
the lower courts.
The judicial branch of residence hall government aims to
function as a source which will

provide a “learning experience”
to those students who come under
its jurisdiction.
Formerly, applicants for the
position of IRJ upper-court judge
were appointed: Two members by
the Inter-Residence Council, two
by the Housing Department, and
one by the Dean of Students. Under the new system, applicants
for the position of upper court
judge will be interviewed by the
Executive Committee of the IRC,
current judges on the IRJ and
staff of the Housing Department.
They will be appointed by the
Executive Committee.

Information Officers
At least three Information Officers will also be appointed. The
position of Information Officer
was recently established to eliminate misconceptions about the
court system, providing instead
reliable and helpful information.
Applications for the five uppercourt judges and for the position
of Information Officer are available in the IRC Office and must
be submitted for consideration no
later than April 22. AM applicants
must be residents at the University for a minimum of one semester prior to their term of office, must be residents during
their term of office and also must

have a 1,0 cumualtive average.

The number of lower courts
has been reduced from six to
three. One court will handle
cases from Tower, Macdonald,
Cooke, Michael, and Schoellkopf
Halls; a second court will deal
with cases from Clement and half
of Allenhurst and the third court
will handle cases from Goodyear
and the other half of Allenhurst.

Cases integrated
The Upper Court will continue
to handle cases which do not fall
under the jurisdiction of the lower courts and will be the appellate court for appeal oases.
Basically, IRJ functions to provide a fair hearing and decision,
reflecting student responsibility,
in cases of regulation of resident
student conduct in situations related to residence and to interpret the IRC Constitution when

that a student be expelled from
University housing. The judiciary
views its purpose not as a legal
body of disciplinarians who punish offenders, but as a group of

concerned individuals who desire
to foster the concept of individual responsibility in students who
appear before the court.
Judge Ron Mardenbro feels that
since many of the rules governing students are made by the students themselves, it is “only natural that the judicial branch
should be run by students.”

are urged to submit proposals, since a “maximum
input from the University community is needed.”

Economic objectives
Existing programs must be expanded to achieve economic rather than racial objectives, Mr.
O’Neil continued, and “more has
to be done to make these programs work.”
He noted the high

attrition
rate in the Upward Bound program that assists approximately
50 State University of Buffalo
minority! group students in financial and academic affairs.
Mr. O’Neil suggested a corps
of non-white counselors and advisors as well as increased fiancial aid and work programs
to bolster the program.
Under another program, the
New York College Bound Corporation will begin working with
Negro and Spanish-speaking students early in their educational
careers. It will provide finan-

cial and academic assistance. This
University has made a commitment to accept a small number
of students in the program when

they are ready to enter college,
Mr. O’Neil added.
In the area of employment, the
construction of the campus at
Amherst will provide a tremendous opportunity for jobs for unemployed minority group members, according to the presiden-

tial assistant.

Experimental program?
The University can help alleviate a shortage of jobs this
summer that will find an estimated 12,000 ghetto teenagers
out of work, he suggested. A
form of Experimental College
could be implemented to combine academies and employment
for youths from the Buffalo

ghetto.

The University is not currently
perceived as a place of employment, observed Mr. O’Neil.
Increased contact with the

ghetto community is a prime objective of the programs. An expansion of the Community Aid
Corps and a program to aid businessmen in ghetto areas are now
being formulated.
“With two Western New York

counties included in the de-

pressed Appalachian region, two
major non-white ghettos and

three Indian reservations in the
area,” Mr. O’Neil feels that the
University must become involved
in aiding the underprivileged.

Two University administrators have taken charge of a

Spectrum editors have done what each individual student cannot do for
himself—we have interviewed the candidates extensively,
and evaluated each on the
basis of his knowledge of student government, the workings of the University, and
his capabilities for the office he seeks.
Some candidates, we found to our horror, lack even elemental knowledge of
student and University affairs!
21 candidates do not appear on this chart. We believe that they simply
cannot adequately fill the offices they seek.
The following Spectrum recommendations cross party lines. (No single party
has a monopoly on talent.)
We strongly urge students, then, to vote for the Spectrum-endorsed

Bard president posts bail for 32
students arrested in campus raid
ANNANDALE ON HUDSON
(CPS)—Sheriff’s deputies arrested
32 Bard College students, 14 of
them on narcotics charges, in the
third pre-dawn police raid on a
college campus this year.
Deputies arrived in the Bard
campus at 1 a.m. April 6, setting
up roadblocks at the three en.

trances to the campus.

Meanwhile other deputies searched
dorms, arresting 14 on drug
charges and confiscating quantities of marijuana, pep pills, and
heroin.

Some of the

18 arrested on

non-drug charges

were

charged

with interfering with the police

and harrassment of police officers. Some caught in the roadblock
were charged with drunk driving
and other traffic violations. The

students harrassed the officers
extensively, spitting on them and
yelling at them. However, some
students said they were arrested
for simply going up to the deputies and asking for their badge
numbers.

The legislature also added a
clause requiring the student members at each institution to be
Kentucky residents. The student
body president gets to sit on his
institution’s governing board it
he is a state resident. If he is
not, a special election will be
held to determine the student
representative.
Although the presidents of the
state institutions did not publicly
support or oppose the bill, most
were believed to be against it.

The children will have to be

scheduled at anytime on Saturday

VISTA is interested in having
the children taught in their area,
therefore interested persons will
have to teach in the Masten

Anyone interested in teaching

that someday the common man’s
complaints may be heard loudly

director of the program, defines
the scope of the ombudsman project and explains why government officials have nothing to
fear on the upcoming “State of

Mr. Hollands explains that experience has shown that more
often than not, the customer is
not always right. The work of
clarification resulting from a
gripe is more often done with
the person who complains than
with the agency or persons he is
complaining about.

“Charley’s Aunt” is a Victorian
fairy tale complete with happilyever-after ending in which only

those who put love before money

situation comedy invokes convulsive cackling in many of the audience. There is a more subtle

Jim Kasprowicz, trombonist;
Joseph Kubera, pianist; William

and Mr. Creely’s book of poems.
Among the selections of the concept are Dimensions, The Hole,

“I’m very honored to work with
his (Creely’s) poetry,” said the
composer. “I was very cautious

setting was different.”

Michael S. Horwood, a student
of theory composition at this University, is the composer of the

He will also conduct the program

The program is sponsored by

Not all girl’s stuff “covers up.” Here’s one product that does more
PAMPRIN.

Playtex* invents the first-day tampon

"

PAMPRIN makes a woman look and feel better ... without relying on
“camouflage.” PAMPRIN is specifically designed to get at a basic
cause of pre-menstrual problems. Problems of temporary water-weight
gain. That puffy feeling that can make you feel miserable the week
before your period. (It’s that extra water-weight causing pressure on
tissues that makes for headaches and pre-menstrual tension.)
PAMPRIN does what aspirin doesn’t. It alleviates the “bloating.” So it
gets at the cause of the pain. Instead of just covering it up. PAMPRIN
makes a woman feel more like a woman. Every day of the month. So
every coed can live life a little bit better. Now that PAMPRIN is going
to college.
PAMPRIN. It’s definitely girl’s stuff.

Traced to Atlanta

of Dr. King’s

Path

MEMPHIS, Tenn.
In the dingy flophouse, the bathroom window is still
jammed open, and across the street the
wreaths are wilting on the balcony of
the Lorraine Hotel.
Tourists can see it all, the place where
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. died.
The tears have dried and the eulogies
echoed away, the violence is subsiding
and the flowers are dying, but the man
who killed Dr. King still is free.
Within hours after Dr. King fell dying,
the FBI launched the greatest manhunt
of the century for a shadowy sailor named
Erie Starvo Galt. It searched for Galt in
utter secrecy, and those few police departments asked to look out for him were
asked only to locate him
not to arrest
him. No warrant was issued for him.
Officially the FBI will not even concede that it wants a man named Eric
Starvo Galt, The name became known
only after the FBI issued
and later
hastily withdrew
a “locate and notify"
order for him.

killer leaves FBI cold

Does he exist?
—Eric Gall is an enigma. In fact there
is some official suspicion that Eric Galt
may not exist, for it is very hard for a
man to leave so few traces of himself.
As far as can be determined, his trail
grows cold in Atlanta, where agents found
his white Mustang Thursday. It had been
abandoned there the morning of April 5,
one day after the killing.
Where he came from, where he has
gone
they are mysteries. The death of
Martin Luther King Jr. is a hodgepodge
of mysteries.
On Friday, the day after the killing,
and on Sunday and Monday on television
programs, Atty Gen. Ramsey Clark talked
freely and optimistically. The attorney
general now avoids reporters.
Eric Galt once lived in the white stucco
house with a red tile roof at 2608 Highland Ave. in Birmingham.
Room and board at 2608 Highland costs
$27 a week, and most of its guests stay
—

only two or three weeks before they move
—OB.

Peter Cerpes runs the place and he says
he talked to the FBI and won’t alk to anyone else.
Authorities—questioned but not warned
to secrecy by the FBI —say that Galt applied for a driver’s license at Birmingham
on Sept. 6, 1967.
When he requested the license, he said
he was an unemployed merchant mariner.
There is no record of him at the Port of
Mobile.
He bought the white Mustang, which
was so passionately sought for a week,
from William D .Paisley of Birmingham
on Aug. 30, 1967. Mr. Paisely said the FBI
told him not to talk to reporters.
The Alabama State Employment Office
never heard of Eric Galt. The Birmingham
police never heard of him, and the Birmingham Credit Bureau has no file on
him. No one knows, now, where Eric Galt
has been sihce November.

North Vietnam has accused
the United States of deliberately delaying
talks on peace and has warned Washington to “stop creating problems” over a
site.
The Hanoi regime said it had noted
Washington’s objections to Phnom Penh
and had suggested Warsaw while the
United States had proposed a number of
places which are not acceptable to North

In two separate statements broadcast

by Hanoi Radio it charged that President
Johnson was reneging on his promise to
meet with the Communists anywhere and

at

any time.

In New York, U.N. Secretary General
Thant appealed “fervently” to both sides
to reach a speedy agreement on a site for
the discussions. The appeal came in his
first public statement since returning from
an eight-day visit to Europe during which
he said he was in contact with both Hanoi
and Washington.
Both Hanoi broadcasts, one a Foreign
Ministry statement and the other an editorial in the official newspaper Nhan Dan,
accused the United States of intensifying
air raids on the southern panhandle of
North Vietnam and other “bellicose acts.”
The ministry statement said North Vietnam suggested on April 8 that Phnom
Penh be the site “for preliminary contacts
on the ambassadorial level . . . with a
view to preparing for the formal talks.”

The bullet was recovered from Kings’

body, but the indications are that it was
too severely broken up for ballistics tests.
A fingerprint, or a palmprint, or both,
were found—either in the bathroom or

on the rifle. But indications are that authorities don’t expect much from them.
Ramsey Clark, however, insists the “physical evidence is very substantial.”
The manhunt continues, massive, secret,

On April 10, it said the United States
“came out with the claim that Phnom
Penh presents difficulties . . . because of
problems arising from the absence of a
U.S. mission at that location.”
“At the same time, they proposed a
number of places which are not adequate
to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam,”
the statement said.
The Hanoi regime took U.S. objection*
to the capital of Cambodia into consideration, it said, and suggested Warsaw. But,
it added;
“On April 12, the U.S. authorities, without giving their opinion on the choice of
Warsaw, raised two conditions of minimum standards for the place of prelimiinary contacts. They demanded that the
contacts should take place at a neutral
country, where both sides should have
representation and adequate communications.”
This was in direct contradiction of Mr.
Johnson’s repeated statements that the
United States desired “prompt talks . . .
and that they are ready to go anywhere,
at any time for talks,” it said.
“It is clear that the U.S. government is
deliberately trying to delay the preliminary talks ...” the Foreign Ministry
charged.

“It the United States government really

wants talks
it must stop creating difficulties in the choice of a place for pre...

liminary contacts, which only delay the
talks between the two sides

Students riot in West Berlin
BERLIN—West Berlin police swinging
nightsticks and firing blasts from high
pressure water cannons broke up a mob of
about 1500 youths blocking traffic on the
city’s main street Saturday to protest the
shooting of Rudi Dutschke.
Riot squads arrested about 200 youths,
including Peter Brandt, the 19-year-old son
of West German Foreign Minister Willy

Brandt.
Later the student supporters of the shot
leftwing youth leader massed and blocked
traffic in West Berlin’s main street, the
Kurfuerstendamm, police charged. The
youths scattered but re-formed. Police
brought up their motorized water, cannon.
Dutschke, a 28-year-old leftist youth

leader, was critically wounded Thursday
by Josef Bachmann, a 23-year-old housepainter and admirer of Adolf Hitler. Bachman said the assassination of Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr. gave him the idea of
killing the “Communist" Dutschke,
In the West German post city of Bremenhaven, youths tore down the American
flag from a pole in front of U.S. headquarters and draped a red banner over
the headquarters entrance.
West German Chancellor Kurt Georg
Kiesinger warned the students in a nationwide television and radio speech the
nation would not tolerate violence. He
advised youths to turn their backs on
“radical gang leaders.”

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

An error by one
There are certain times when a college newspaper must

diverge from the normal types of editorializing to convey a
deeper, more somber message. This is one of those times.

The Spectrum was criticized severely as a result of Friday’s elections issue. The temper of the criticism, however,
was far out of proportion to what some considered an injustice.

Let me first say that some mistakes were made Friday.
It was an error to omit the statements of some candidates.
It was an error to attempt to give parties rather than individual candidates an equal amount of coverage. There is
no question in my mind that these were, indeed, mistakes
and, as editor, I assume full responsibility for them. Today’s
edition is an attempt to correct any injustice that may have
resulted.
On the other hand, those mistakes led to reactions by
some candidates and a few non-candidates that I viewed as
appalling and certainly out of place in a supposedly intellectual University community.

A number of mimeographed slingers appeared Friday
morning which accused The Spectrum and its editors of
intentionally perpetrating a “grave injustice” and misusing
power. I, personally, was charged with making a “deceptive
and underhanded attempt to destroy freedom of thought.”
I find it difficult to believe that even the authors of
these statements actually thought that what they wrote was
true. These statements were, instead, an attempt to discredit
Spectrum endorsements because the complainants did not
receive those endorsements.
After viewing the reactions of these students, I am certain more than ever of one thing: The Spectrum endorsements could not be more correct. The vindictive and revengeful barrage that was leveled against this newspaper
and against me personally speaks only too well of the immaturity of a great many unendorsed candidates. I shudder
to think that these very students are on the ballot for election as student leaders.
One party has even gone so far as to state publicly that
The Spectrum has no business making endorsements. I must
differ with that assumption. It is not only a newspaper’s business to make endorsements; it is its responsibility.
Spectrum editors take the time to interview any candidate who wishes to be interviewed. The interview helps us
to decide just how qualified a student is for the office he
seeks. The interviews break through the smiling facade of
the campaign. I believed the endorsements were accurate.
Now I am certain they are.

The attempt of some to imply that there was a SpectrumBurgher Party coalition strikes me as most disgusting. Rick
Schwab, Penny Bergman and Tracy Cottone received endorsements because they are all extremely well-qualified students.
Those that charge that the Schwab endorsement came as a
result of his former association with this newspaper should
reflect that during the interviews, virtually all of the candidates recognized Rick Schwab’s abilities and qualifications.
The attempt to discredit the endorsement is obviously a
maneuver to deny Rick Schwab’s election.

Collusion charged

By Friday afternoon and Saturday
morning,
mimeographed
statements by supporters of candidates not endorsed by The Spectrum were circulating. They
charged collusion between the
newspaper and some endorsed
candidates, and questioned The

torial endorsements.
Voting will take place in the
Norton center lounge, in Tower
and Goodyear Halls from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m. today and tomorrow.
Full-time undergraduate students with validated ID cards may
vote. Seniors will be permitted
to vote.

Correction
In Friday's Spectrum it was erroneously reported that black youths attending a memorial
service for Dr. Martin Luther King April 9 "rampaged up Main Street, breaking windows and slowing traffic."
Tuesday's service at Niagara Square was attended largely by university students, and was
peaceful. The rampage incident occurred April 8.
It was also reported that Ken Becker is running
for 1st Vice President on the New Campus Alliance
ticket. He is not. He is running on the SNAP slate.

tained endorsements for various
candidates seeking executive officer and coordinator positions.
According to Murray Bichman,
Spectrum circulation and promotion director, all copies of the
newspaper were removed from
Tower Hall about 2 a.m. Friday.
He estimated circulation loss at
more than 1000 copies.

Spectrum ratings and endorsements
Spectrum editors have done what each individual student cannot do for himself—we have interviewed the candidates extensively, and evaluated each on the
basis of his knowledge of student government, the workings of the University, and

his capabilities for the office he seeks.
Some candidates, we found to our horror, lack even elemental knowledge of
student and University affairs!
21 candidates do not appear on this chart. We believe that they simply
cannot adequately fill the offices they seek.
The following Spectrum recommendations cross party lines. (No single party
has a monopoly on talent.)
We strongly urge students, then, to vote for the Spectrum-endorsed candidates, because far and away, they are simply the best qualified persons running.
Elections are Monday and Tuesday 9 am.—5 pm. in the Norton Center
There were several other shocking incidents that oc- lounge. Only students with validated I.D. cards may vote.
—The Spectrum Executive Editors
curred these past few days. All copies of The Spectrum that

were distributed in Tower Dormitory were stolen sometime
before 2 a.m. Friday. I received a number of communications from some candidates that clearly indicate maladjustments in their mental processes.

I have always felt that there were two qualities needed
for a successful leader in student government or anywhere else. The first is a personal moral and ethical code
that a true leader must possess. The second is the intelligence and the ability to discharge the responsibilities of the
office.
I was certain that many of the unendorsed candidates
fell down in the second; I did not realize that so many were
sadly inadequate in the first.

An explanation to our readers
In Friday's Special Election Issue, The

Spectrum attempted to treat each

campus political party equally.

The Burgher Party received 52 column inches of space for statements
and photos; New Campus Alliance also received-column-inches;, the P*~ogressive Action party received 75, and the Students' New Action Party 67
column inches. Independent candidates were alotted a total of 50 column
inches.

'

Unfortunately, in our quest to keep any one party from obtaining dominant coverage in that edition, it was necessary to delete statements and photographs of several party-aligned Coordinator candidates.

These candidates were notified that The Spectrum would print their
and statements in our regularly scheduled eidtion tomorrow.

We have reconsidered that decision. We feel it would be unfair to print
their positions one day after voting had begun
hence today's extra edition.

Hollander's student rights proposal
“Despite the varying shades of
political philosophy which exist
among the students at this University, each one of us must live
according to the same legal code.
“Every person, and specifically,
every student at the State University of Buffalo, should be
entitled to enjoy the advantage
of a high standard of legal repre-

sentation when and if it becomes

necessary. The office of Coordinator of Student Rights was created with this concept in mind.

“What, then, should be done in
order to realize the goal of equal
rights and quality legal representation for students?
“The Student Bill of Rights
guarantees, among others, the
right of each student: a) to criticize the pronouncements of faculty members without fear of academic reprisal; b) to be protected
against unjust grading and evaluation due to incompetence, error, or prejudice; c) to prevent
disclosure of any information on
personal views and political asso•

ciations; d) to establish publications without censorship.
“A liaison between such organizations as the Legal Aid Society and the American Civil Liberties Union must be established.
“A system of legal advisement
for students must be arranged
with the School of Law.
“A newsletter, designed to
keep the student body informed
of its rights in matters such as
the draft, drug laws and search
and seizure laws, must be created.
“Action must be taken to lower
the voting age to 18.
A committee of ombudsmen
must be created so that any student with a grievance concerning
any aspect of the University may
avoid the bureaucratic maze, and
have his problem settled easily
and properly.
“No matter what the problem,
be it with the draft or with a
parking- violation, with an automobile accident or with a dispute
involving a department of the
University, I stand pledged to ar-

Dave Clowes, Student Rights:
A call for on-campus frats
Approximately two years ago,
"the State University system abol-

ished national fraternities from
its campuses. This was partly
based upon the feeling that these
organizations discriminated in
their membership.
“As a result, many large, wellknown and beneficial fraternities
were forced to go either local
and relinquish long standing ties
or remain national and relinquish
many of the rights which they
should have been able to retain
merely because they were members of the Student Association.

“In addition, little or nothing
has previously been said about
the great social and athletic contributions which have been made

in accord with what the Administration will allow.

Special Election Issue

n Editorial

1968

The student elections that will take place on campus
Monday and Tuesday are perhaps the most important of
the decade. The Student Association today does more programming, more policy-making, and more for the student
than most realize, in essence, it has become a vital organization in the operation of this University.
Students can not afford to waste their votes on unqualified candidates. Student Association offices must be
filled with competent and intelligent leaders or every
student, and the University as a whole, will suffer.

For these reasons, The Spectrum has devoted a great
deal of time in studying the candidates and their credentials. Many hours were spent interviewing the candidates,
and careful thought and discussion has led us to make
what we believe are the proper endorsements.
We urge all students to learn about the candidates so
that they can cast ballots in a wise manner. A list of endorsed candidates appears on this page, and we earnestly
believe that those students who take the time to find out
for themselves will concur with our conclusions.

•

Although there are a number of qualified persons running for the four officer positions, The Spectrum urges
students to vote for the following:
•

•

•

For President—Rick Schwab
For 1st Vice President—Penny Bergman
For 2nd Vice President—Tracy Cottone

For Treasurer—Jairo Estrada
Rick Schwab’s qualifications for the presidential office
must go unquestioned. His knowledge of the workings of
the Student Association, its programs and goals as well as
its problems, has grown steadily over the three years he
has been a student here.

editors have done what each individual student cannot do
for himself—we have interviewed the candidates
extensively, and evaluated each on the
basis of his knowledge of student government,
the workings of the University, and
his capabilities for the office he seeks.
Some candidates, we found to our horror,

21 candidates do not appear on this
chart. We believe that they simply
cannot adequately fill the offices they seek.
The following Spectrum
recommendations cross party lines. (No single party
has a monopoly on talent.)
We strongly urge students, then, to vote for the Spectrum-endorsed candidates, because far and away, they are simply the best qualified persons running.
Elections are Monday and Tuesday 9 a.m.—5 p.m. in the Norton Center
lounge. Only students with validated I.D. cards may vote.

These three candidates—Rick Schwab, Penny Bergman

and
their individual abilities and concepts have
combined to
torm the party platform, which we also endorse.
Jairo Estrada, Barbara Emilson, Nancy

Hollender and Harry Klein have also demonstrated
their
abilities, and The Spectrum recognizes them as excellent

candidates.

It is difficult to convey the tremendous importance
that
this election will have on this campus for
the next year.
In every sense, this election is a time of crisis
for the

Penny Bergman and Tracy Cottone, candidates for 1st
and 2nd vice president respectively, are two students most
qualified and most involved in student affairs. Both have
shown their abilities on countless occasions in the past.
Penny, a member of the Student Senate executive
committee, has played a significant part in many Student
Association programs for the past two years. She was cochairman of the committee which produced the first course
and teacher evaluation at Buffalo, editor of the Student
Association Newsletter last Spring and co-recipient of
the
Freshman Ring Award of Cap and Gown woman’s honor
society. Unquestionably, an excellent candidate.
Tracy Cottone has made her greatest contribution as
director of the Community Aid Corps. The
success that
the program has had this past year
can be attributed to
Tracy s unrelenting efforts. Tracy is also a resident advisor
in Goodyear and a member of the Education
Department’s
ad hoc committee on Student Participation.
Her list of qualifications includes membership on
the
Dean s Advisory Committee for Underprivileged Students
and last year’s Spring Weekend Steering
Committee. We
see Tracy Cottone as a dynamic, hard-working
vice
president.

stand on a few vital issues:
ACADEMICS: The Students’ New Action Party platform gives no
specific suggestions, but merely advocates continuing “certain vital
programs” and creating new ones.

The three other parties all endorse optional pass-fail proposals.
The Burgher Party seeks credit for Vista and Community Aid
Corps workers, and plans to remedy the pains of registration.
The Progressive-Action Party proposes reducing the normal

course load to four instead of five.

COMMUTERS: Three parties propose integrating the commuter
into the mainstream of University life through the establishment of
overnight facilities, support of Commuter Council, or by scheduling
meetings in the afternoon rather than the evening, when commuters
can easily attend.

But the SNAP Party platform states: “The roots of much commuter unhappiness and non-participation lay either with the commuters themselves or are in fact non-existent.”
NATIONAL STUDENT ASSOCIATION: Three parties advocate
using NSA facilities and services more than they have been used in

the past.

New Campus Alliance takes no stand.
FRATERNITIES: All parties favor bringing national fraternities

on campus.

Pro-Act suggests that perhaps FSA land in Amherst could be
leased to them for the construction of fraternity houses.
PUBLICATIONS: Burgherites favor “expansion of The Spectrum

to a three-day-a-week operation”; “the expansion of The New Student
Review to at least four editions a year” and the establishment of new
publications. Funding, they say, would be possible through savings incurred by establishing on-campus printing facilities.
Pro-Act favors a daily Spectrum, an on-campus press, and eventually, a second newspaper.
NCA says nothing.
And the SNAP Party platform says: “We want our ideas published in the school newspaper.”
NORTON: Generally all seek lower Bookstore prices. But the
SNAP Party takes no stand in its platform.

Platfori

Post suggests improvements

The Progressive Action Party
“We as a party embrace an educational
philosophy that once realized will permit
each of us to define ‘education’ as we wish
and allow each of us to have the opportunity
to pursue our personally defined educations.
“This means that there will be pass-fail
grading for those who desire it; independent
study for those who desire it; community
involvement for those who desire it; and
student-initiated courses for those who desire
them.
“We further believe that the University
has a growing stake in the future of our civilization. For almost a decade, American students have shown an honest and active concern for our country. Now the universities
as a whole must follow their example.
“We believe that the Polity is a step
towards a more meaningful and democratic
form of government than that of the past.
It need not be a ‘leap into the dark.’ We hope
to make the Polity a viable form of selfgovernment, a government which provides
each of us with opportunities to better our
education and our University.
“We believe that the Polity will not be
the only problem confronting the next administration. Voluntary student fees have already proven to be the cause of critical
financial shortages. Moreover, we are moving into a period in which our enrollments
will expand while our physical area will
remain stable. Experience has taught us that
these problems can be mitigated, and we will
do so in the future.
“We will apply our efforts towards the

and innovations in services

accomplishment of further University reforms. We advocate expanding the amount
of student representation on departmental
committees. Our academic community should
not be a producer-consumer system that
builds conflict between the faculties and the
students. It should be a joint, cooperative
effort in which all are seen as involved.
“It is our feeling that the Universiity
should provide for all of its students the
opportunity and atmosphere in which selfexamination is encouraged; for without knowing our presuppositions concerning ourselves
and others it is impossible to truly relate and
understand those who share our community.

“At the present time there is

a great deal of room for improvement in every aspect of services
afforded to the students. I would
like too present a number of
ideas as to some of the problems
which I see as present, and possible steps to solve these prob-

lems.

F.S.A. recreational land:
there are 500 acres of land available for recreational purposes approximately 2.5 miles north of

Miller: Students have great party
“After reading the platform
suggestions made here and elsewhere in this campaign, some students ask, Well it’s all very nice,
but what power do we have to
enact such proposals? What
strength do we have when there
is resistance to be overcome? I
think that we have a great
amount of power; in fact, I think
students are one of the most potent farces not only in this University but in our country as
well.
“The events of the last weeks
have demonstrated this fact. I
doubt if international peace could
have begun to be attained without the current change in Ameri-

can public opinion.

“Your efforts, especially iii the
dark hours of 1965 and 1966, have

been in the greatest factor in the
attainment of a new American
outlook towards the war. Moreover the cry for social change
that culminated in the assassination of Martin Luther King actually began when you sat-in at
lunch counters, rode buses across
the South, and when you tried to
attain equal rights for all.
“In addition, the current success of Eugene McCarthy would
not have been possible if it were
not for your efforts on his be

Rosenfeld asks students to take stand
“The

critical problems
facing American universities today are the war in Vietnam and
its inevitable consequence, a
greatly increased draft.
“The war is sapping the strength
of American universities by drafting its vitally needed graduate
students and, if the war continues to escalate, possibly many of
its undergraduates as well. No
one can deny the fact that if the
war continues and our college
students are drafted in ever-increasing numbers, this country
will face disastrous economic
consequences. Aside from this
will be the problem of a greatly
changing social structure.
“If the draft increases, five
years from now the typical graduate student will be a woman and
the only male graduate students
will be those who are ineligible
for the draft or who are veterans.
It is not a very optimistic prospect, indeed.
“The consequences for the individual student are grave also.

with experience in old government. Today we need a new open
mind in government. A mind that
is not confused with old ways,
but a mind that is free of tradition, wilHng to learn and work
with the new government.
“The students have become
puppets of the campus politicians. This I want to change. I
want to cut the strings by increasing student power and voice.
“The new campus alliance is
that new organization. The leaders with free open minds. The
leaders that are interested in
you, the student. Vote Row ‘C’ on
April 15th and 16th.”

“Students at this University, like students
throughout the United States, have not used
their voice for those affairs which concern
them. The reason for this is that the present
leaders, not only here but all over the country, have failed to lead the students effectively. It is time for a revolution in student
leadership. It is time for student leadership
to take the many voices of the students and
align them into one clear, articulate voice.

“If elected we will not only bring about
this voice, but we will back it up with actions
and demands necessary for good student government. Students have a voice through the
polity; responsible leadership must let this
voice be heard.
“We of the New Campus Alliance will
not only revolutionize and encourage student
participation, but we will begin by presenting a basic program which we deem necessary for the immediate improvement of our
community.
“The heart of the University is Norton
Hall. For this reason we plan to have Norton
Hall open on a 24-hour basis.
“The problems of additional staffing can
be solved by allocating funds, not only from
the undergraduates, but also from the G.S.A.
and the Millard Fillmore College Student
Association.
“Now that students and faculty alike have
proved that to enforce the archaic law of a
dry campus is impossible, let us throw out
the rule.
“The University Union Activities Board,
with a duty to present activities to the University body, has not reached its full potential. If elected we will reevaluate, reorganize
and revitalize this necessary organ of student
administration.
“Because of the experimentation of many
ideas in college governments, we will immediately set up a Student Association Library
including tapes of coordinating and polity
meetings. Inter-University publications will
also be available to all students, as will all

“The acquisition of more and better

“We should plan soon to gain either

“Policy consistency with ID cards is a

“Something must be done immediately
before students are paying ‘twice the price

we must investigate the possibility of an outside firm willing to manage it.
“A big-time athletic program complementing an excellent educational institution
at Buffalo will build the much-needed spirit

for such a program is a football stadium.
“Also, in our ideal of an expanded program we cannot forget the immediate necessity of making our Hockey Club a recognized

Presidential hopefuls voice opinions on the polity
The four Student Association presidential candidates met with the Spectrum Fea-

ture Editor Barry Holtzclaw Tuesday eve-

to candidly and informally discuss
some important issues facing the University
and the Student Association.
The hall-hour discussion between Bruce
Marsh, Richard Miller, Steve Rappoport,
and Rick Schwab centered around next
year’s experiment in direct democracy, the
polity. Following is a partial transcript of
the meeting:
The Spectrum: What is he most important problem facing the Student Association in the coming year?
Mr. Schwab; Originally the biggest
problems were: Where are we going to
get the money to do the things that we
want to do; and what to do in the area of

versity students themselves realize

the
need for it.

the country. It’s going to take intensive
effort to make it work, and it’s going to
have to work in the first three months;
if it doesn’t work then, then I don’t think
it’s going to work at all.
Mr. Marsh; I voted no on the polity, and
I made my views clear in a letter I wrote
to The Spectrum prior to the referendum.

ning

academics.
But I guess the events of the last few
days have changed our attitude in a lot
of ways.
Students are ready now to channel their
efforts into a program that will really begin to reach out into the community. In
my platform for instance, I support the
Urban Affairs Curricula, so that people
will be working in the ghetto.
Also, Tracy Cottone’s Community Aid
Corps now has 300 people working with
people, children, in the ghetto. Just think
if we could triple that program. There arc
a lot of other things we could do in those
areas.

I think that the money will be available.
I think there will be a change in heart
in Congress, and that the money will be
there through OEO or other federal programs; and that we will begin to do the
things that Dr. King called for when he
was here last November.
Mr. Rappoport: I think that the problems facing the University haven’t
changed. The events of the last few days
have left a temporary, and perhaps too
temporary impression on the student body.
The whole purpose of the Students’
New Action Party (SNAP) is trying to
organize efforts and channel the efforts
of the students outside of the University,
to try and show them in fact that there
is a world beyond the classroom.
You can have the greatest academic reforms in the world, but if you blind the
student body to the fact that when they
get out of the University, they can know
the book cold and not learn to live like
human beings, you’re not going to get
anywhere. You’ve got a Vietnam issue
that has to be discussed openly on campus
by all groups, not to a free-for-all debate
where people lineup speakers who speak
for three or four hours, and not through
parliamentary objections, but by the efforts of people who want to get off their
asses and do something.
You’re not going to accomplish anything
solely in the world of academics or solely
in the world of student government, or
solely in the world of finance, —any true
activity for the betterment of the University is going to happen when the Uni-

the academics and the role outside of the
classroom are important issues. But I
don’t think they’re really a problem if
they’re approached in the manner, in a
responsible student government, which
will involve, more deeply, the polity.
I think that the main problem this year
will be the money to finance the programs that you want to put through in
these areas.
The student has now opened himself
into a new era of involvement. The McCarthy movement has largely been pushed
by students—they’ve become involved in
national politics. 40 or 50 years ago this
wasn’t the case.
I think that money here plays a very
important role.
The national government is facing the

the programs you want.
Mr. Miller; I think that the main problem facing this University and any University—past, present, and future—is primarily education.
This encompasses just about everything.
Not just the knowledge that the University discovers and transfers, but, in particular, the means by which it is transferred. Under this general problem area,
you have all the reasons and all the motivations for having academic reform, for
needing the money to finance programs
that are indeed educational within the
students’ areas of interest and involvement within the University.
And certainly the events of the past

year have demonstrated that the Univer-

sity and the students of the University
have to play a role outside of the University. In this area the extra-Univereity activities have to be shown, and I believe
they are, to be just as educational and
having as much benefit to the student as
anything he might get out of a textbook.
Steve was right on this point.

But I view everything from that one
problem: Education. Even the polity falls
under that, because the responsibility of
student government next year will be to
educate the students as to how to use the
polity. It will be the responsibility of the
student government itself to learn, and
educate itself, as to how the polity can
be used, run, made an efficient means
of governing students.

Education, and eveything that comes
under it is the problem of the future, as
it has always been.

simply because I do not think that a student can vote on an issue that has been
shoved down his throat. I think that senators, I think that students, should have

First of all, one of the key issues is
public relations and public affairs. I do
not think they were handled as well as
they could have been last year. For example, if the people who were pushing

Mr. Schwab: I voted yes. When I was
working on The Spectrum I supported the
polity editorially. I think publicity is a
key factor in whether the polity succeeds
or fails. I hope The Spectrum can carry
the bulk of it by publicizing the meetings beforehand, by explaining what’s
going to be voted on.
It’s going to have to do a much better
job than in the past. There will be more
going on than merely a weekly Senate
meeting. The new constitution provides a
workable system. With proper leaders it
will work.
Mr. Rappoport; In the beginning I
wasn’t in favor of the polity, or any other
type of government other than a representative type of government, but on this
campus there is no such thing as a representative type of government, where a
person can truly know what the constituency that voted for him actually wants
him to say.

For this reason, it’s not a question of
whether the polity may work, or may not
work, but that it’s got to work, because

Mr. Marsh: I agree with Mr. Schwab
and Mr. Rappaport to this extent: That

the future of all student government lies
with the finding of something which is
functional.
The polity system as a whole will only
work if the students want it to work.
This is true of any type of idea, any
type of new concept which is brought
to the campus. It can only work if not
only the ctive, extreme left, and extreme
right take an interest, but if the large
number of students in the middle who
are stepped on and walked over, wake up
and decide that they no longer are going
to walk from one class to another and
back to their rooms, but are going to find
out about the world around them. The
polity system may not be the best system
around, but it’s the one we have to work
with next year, and rather than discard
it, I think the best thing we can do is
work as hard as possible to make lit work.
The Spectrum: Mr. Miller, as a member
of this year’s student government, don’t
jiou have a vested interest in the polity?
Mr. Miller; I certainly do. I helped write
the new Constitution, and I’ve been in
favor of it, I’ve spoken in favor of it, and
I voted for it. I think it’s a step forward.
I think, it’s a step towards making a community in this University that is just not
present at this time, if students do get
together, and do discuss the issues which
are important.
There are going to be important problems in the polity that will take efforts
to overcome, and having been involved
in writing the constitution, I have some
idea as to what those problems will be,
because we tried to build into it checks
and balances so that these problems can
be overcome, so I have some expectation
as to what will happen. Certainly the
meetings themselves will require certain
procedural rules to be drawn up, so that
there is no stepping on people in the
meetings, and that parliamentary procedure will not become a hindrance. Parliamentary procedure is supposed to be an
aid to conducting business, not a handicap. That’s why procedural rules are
going to be very important.
I’ve seen the NSA conventions, where
1300 delegates sit and pass legislation,
much like the polity meetings will be,
with nobody stepping on anybody else,
and lots of exchanges going on, and various procedural rules, with the structure
of the room in a certain way, with tables
and microphones, so that people will only
speak in turn. These are some ideas that
I would like to try out in the polity as
we have it here.
I think the chairman (SA President) is
going to be an important person in the
polity: he has to have a working knowledge of parliamentary procedure, he has
to understand the interests of the people
he will have to serve, making sure that
everyone has a chance to air their views.
It’s a step forward, some have said a
leap into the dark, but I don’t think it
has to be that way. There have been many
reforms in student governments across

clear to the students the older constitution, so that the student could truly
compare the two systems, I think this
would have been much fairer. The lole
thing was rushed into too quickly My
strongest argument against the polity was
the wording of the constitution. I think
in principle the whole aspect of the
polity system is fantastic. I have reservations about its practical application.
There is where I think the problem will
be.

The Spectrum: Does this mean that, if
elected, you would be in favor of amending the polity system?
Mr. Marsh: Well, this would be up to
the students who attend the polity meetings. I will certainly make a number of
suggestions of things that I think should
be changed in the constitution. By the
same token, I don’t think we should
launch ourselves on too many changes
either. It’s going to take a period of
time in which we can study the polity
system as it actually is, as it appears now
in the constitution; I think that’s all we
can do, and I think it will not depend on
those people who are administering the
polity. The key issue is whethc stuednts will come to the meetings. W
Mr. Rappoport; I don’t think it’s always
very necessary to show the students what
the old was before they can vote on the
new. The old, in this case, failed, and I
think it’s worth a gamble, when you know
that the old stinks.
The Spectrum: Maybe we could at this
point shift discussion to another aspect
of the polity—and that’s the role of the
president. Will the president be merely
a moderator of discussions at the polity
meetings? Is his role different from the
past?

Mr. Schwab: Presiding over the meetings is only a small part of the president’s
job. I think a really good aspect of the
new system is that the president doesn’t
have to waste a lot of his time doing a
lot of diddly stuff, which are the coordinators jobs, giving him time to devote
himself to the bigger issues.
The Spectrum: Is the President’s role
in the polity weaker than before?

Mr. Schwab: I really don’t think so. He
is still the main policy-maker, but I think
there will have to be an understanding
between the coordinators and the president. I haven’t seen any really bad proposals by the Coordinator candidates; as
a matter of fact, some of them are very
good ideas which I have tried to incorMr. Miller; At times the president next
may find himself in a very awkward posi-

tion. When the polity, for instance, is debating an issue, which he has been working on himself other parts of the University, under parliamentary procedure,
the chairman of the meeting can not enter
into debate, and that may require it to
be incumbent upon the president to express his views, by handing down the
gavel, or by some procedural rules which
will permit him to speak. Ironing out
these problems, however, is going to

take time.

In referring to something that Bruce
(Marsh) said before, in the case of some
things which are not explicit: Tradition
and interpretation will make these things
explicit. It’s now how explicit it is, but
it’s rather the people who are working
with it, that will decide whether or not
it’s going to work or not.
The president is still going to be a
spokesman, representing the students of
the University. In the polity system, his
contact will be greatly enlarged; people
wall see him because he is going to be at
that polity meeting. He’s going to have
to stand up, and take a lot of crap from
people. And it might mean that we’re
going to have a more political president,
because of the kinds of pressures that will
be on him. He might have to play one
side against the other. I hope this
doesn’t happen.
However, you can see that if the president is in such an exposed position as
might happen in the polity, something like
that could happen. I hope it doesn’t. You
cannot please everybody all the time, you
just please everybody some of the time,
and hope to do your best.
Mr. Marsh; I tend to agree. I think the
president will be able to have a greater
interaction with the students. The two
vice-presidents can take care of the greater portion of the administrative problems
you’re going to run into, and the president will be able to get out, even outside
polity meetings, and meet with students,
and also be able to know more what the
student wants. I don’t think he can do it
by sitting up in an office.
I think bureaucracy and complexity
have to be broken down. If the polity system is to work, it has to work outside
of the polity, it has to work in all aspects.
The president has to become more geratly involved with the student.
Mr. Rappoport; I believe the original
question related to the president’s role
in
relation to the polity. First, let me comment on what Dick (Miller) saiid; Politics

never should have, and never could have,

a place in student government. Of course,
there’s going to be some politics in the
campaign, but there’s no place in the
University for politics when you have to
have the interests of every single student

in mind.

Every president has his own central
area of interest. The good thing about
the polity system is that he will be able
to concentrate in this area, to bring about
the type of reforms, the type of changes
that he feels are needed.
The president in the new polity system
will of necessity have to be more recep-

tive to the needs of the students than
he was in the past. Because then, it was
possible for a president to sit in his office, and write his little memoranda, and
his ideas, and just about garner enough
votes in that Senate to make it binding.
But this year he’s going to have to
realize that he’s not ever, closely associated with that sort of dictatorial policymaker; he of necessity will have to compromise and be aware of the fact that
his policies may be butchered by students, who, even though they are not as
informed as him, may have a better
understanding of what they need, and
this is what the polity has done.
It has shifted responsibility. And the
president has to realize that a lot of his
work, a lot of his effort may be in vain,
but it’s what the student body wants, and
that’s what they’re getting: they will get
what they deserve.

past

believe that prejudice, bigotry, and discrimination are personal defects of the individual,
and to label any organization as such without comprehensive review of the facts, is in
itself discriminatory and unworthy of the
State University system.

“Unlike in the past, it is the present
belief of the Students’ New Action Party,
that the routes of much commuter unhappiness and non-participation lay either with
the commuters themselves or are in fact
non-existent.

“The new polity system gives each and
every student a voice and it places a premium
upon organization and unity. As students, as
human beings, you now have a voice, as fraternities you have unity, and a common understanding of the true meaning of brotherhood and peace. Yes, you now have a voice.

“You now have the Commuter Council
and you now have the Students’ New Action
Party in your corner. You have an agency
to speak for you and you have a group of
students you know are receptive to your
ideas.

“Regarding FSA land, it is the stand of
the Students’ New Action Party that although
it is nice to have a profit-making enterprise
working for the University, it is even more
important that the students derive some form
of tangible, aesthetic benefit from it. We believe that there is no reason to accept one
proposal or another 100% when we are able
to taste the fruits of many different ideas.

“It is the belief of the Students’ New
Action Party, that the goals of the National
Student Association Coordinator are to make
students more cognizant, interested and active in the NSA. It is our desire to make the
State University of Buffalo a stronger member of this organization than it has been in
the past, through a more complete use of its
facilities.

“It has never ceased to amaze us why
some feel that because we have a park we
cannot expand our athletic facilities or why
a golf course presupposes the possibility of
a temporary auditorium for concepts. It is
more our contention that the possible incorporation of all ideas within a park-like
construction is not entirely to be ruled out.
It is to this end that we shall work.

“There are many things, however, that
we don’t want.
“We don’t want a large bureaucratic
structure telling us when to study and what
to study.
“We don’t want restriction upon our
right to disagree with the system, be it local
or national, when we feel that we are being
abused.

“It is the policy of the Students’ New
Action Party that the individual student is
the best judge of what he requires for an
adequate education. We feel that a continuation of certain vital programs as well as
the creation of new and essential ones lies
behind the ability of this University to become more a place for expansion of the
minds and consciences of tomorrow than

New Action Party that the work
which was first undertaken last
August toward the founding of
a student-run University Press
shall not have been in vain.
“There are enough worthy man*
uscripts to keep the presses rolling for the next three years,
publishing at a minimal rate of 12
publications per year. But publications cost money, approximately $2000-$3000 each. However, in
the long-run it is expected that a
profit of about $2000 will be realized on each of the publications,
the returns being directed back
into the student body.
“What I would like to see become a reality is a printing press
at a cost of $150,000 for University Press, something that would
allow students, faculty or anyone to publish materials inexpensively, but in a first class
manner.

“At the present time, the administration is lending support

“In addition I would like to

see works of fiction and poetry

is not to be ruled out should they
prove financially efficient and
journalistically worthy.

“SNAP likes what the students

are doing. Those people who are
running the University Press are
people with new ideas who make
things happen, who get action.
So are we.”
“It grows increasingly more
difficult for University students

to turn their faces from textbooks to the ghettos. It grows

increasingly more important to

hear the cries from Viet Nam
and let them resound throughout the campus. And it’s about
time students learned that the
ears of the University Communiity and the world will only turn,
if they scream loud enough and
long enough. I hope to be allowed to lead them in this direction and give their voices
amplitude and clarity. Vote Rappoport and his New Action

Nation in shock

Murder of Dr. King smashes

optimism triggered by LBJ
Twelve days ago, the spirit of a
nation soared as its leader announced
that he would step down from his
office in the interests of peace and
unity.
That night there was dancing in
the park across the street from the
Executive Mansion, and the next
day the stock market gained dramatically as investors, along with
the rest of a tired populace, hopefully looked toward a new future of
prosperity and yes, perhaps peace
and unity.
—

The country’s political future was confused, but everyone felt that whatever
changes were to take place could only
work for the better.

If a limited bombing pause in a far-off
land would finally lead to the end of
killing and bloodshed, then perhaps the
problems at home
problems of hate,
could then take
injustice and poverty
the top priority they had cried out for,
for so long.
—

—

Days of news specials
The next few days were the days of

television news specials, as for the first
time, real prospects for peace were discussed throughout the world. And the
people began to think more and more of
domestic problems, with sighs of relief.
With The Man leaving the Presidency
for good, with hope for peace in Vietnam,
it looked like the prospects for the inevitable “long hot summer” could be
watered down.
Eight days ago, another leader, a symbol of that hope for the future, could be
seen on one of these news programs. He
was telling an audience of striking garbagemen, mostly black, that he would
ignore an unfair court injunction to lead
them in a peaceful march, intended to
demonstrate their plea for better wages.

to spread across the United States.
Many whites were saddened, many found
themselves gripped by a strange sense of
guilt— and only a few were happy to
see him gone.

Most blacks were also saddened, many
felt frustrated, and many could only think
of lashing out at whatever was available.
Most Americans were at first shocked by
the senseless and brutal act, but as the
next morning dawned, the shock gave
way to fear.
The new hope that had been triggered
one man’s action was smashed as a
second man lay dead.

Quiet life

Until the age of 26, Dr. King had led a
quiet and scholarly life. Having skipped
three grades, he was graduated from high
school at 15, and completed his undergraduate studies at Morehouse College in
Atlanta. At Crozer Theological Seminary
in Chester, Pa., where he was validictorian of his class, he earned his bachelor
of divinity degree at 22. He went on to
Boston University’s Methodist seminary
to earn his PhD at 26.
Dr. King accepted a pastorate at the
Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Ala. It was during his first year
in Montgomery that a young Negress refused to give up her seat on a bus to a
white man.

Dr. King called a mass meeting of Montgomery Negroes, and as a result, a 382
day boycott arose, ending .only when the
U.S. Supreme Court ruled against the constitutionality of such bus segregation laws.

National figure
Across the country, Dr. King became a
a fignational and international figure
ure for change through non-violent civil
disobedience. He fashioned himself after
Mahatma Gandhi, and included that leader’s grave in India as a part of his travels
throughout the world.
—

The leader of millions of persecuted

In 1957, at the invitation of the Prime
Minister, he attended the independence
celebration of Ghana, West Africa.
One of Dr. King’s most dramatic actions
was in Birmingham, Ala., where a demonstration he was leading was met by Police
Commissioner “Bull” Conner, who used
dogs, fire hoses and cattle prods to put
down the demonstrators.

As the body of Rev. Martin Luther King
was still warm in a Memphis hospital, a
/aried and unprecedented reaction began

It was that year that Birmingham saw
the bombing of a Negro church with the
murder of four children. And it was that
summer that he told more than 200,000
at the Lincoln Memorial and millions

tiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be
able to join hands and sing , . . ‘Free at

we’re free at last.’
The years that followed saw Dr. King
move on to Selma, where he led thousands to the state capitol in a march for
voting rights. He went to other places
to Chicago, to Mississippi, to Rochester,
to Memphis

equality.

Changes, criticism

Recent years saw changes in the civil
rights field —and Dr. King found criticism on all sides.
Young Negro militants arose, who saw
violence as the only way to achieve equality for the black man. The era of urban
riots began, and many criticized Dr. King

were on the decline. Thoughts
of urban America were on the upswing,
and the thoughts of Negroes who wanted
to confront the conscience of an America
turned racist could look to Martin Luther
King for a non-violent method.
Since then, there have been more television news specials. They have shown
troops ringed about the White House,
violence and bloodshed in Chicago, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, and countless other
American cities.
They have shown hate, they have shown
fear, they have shown a fight for equality
in the most vioilent of fashions. They have
shown police armed with shotguns and
tear gas on Buffalo’s East Side as Mayor

for his non-violent stance.
As the war in Vietnam became the national preoccupation, he found it necessary to speak out against the policies of
America which he felt were poisoning
the minds of her society and confusing
her sense of priorities.
This created more opponents, claiming
that he was only trying to take publicity
from the militants; that he was speaking
out on a subject that didn’t concern him,
that he was being distracted from his
real purpose.
Dr. King’s big project was to be a
massive Poor People’s March on Washington this month. He wanted to bring thousands of poor people to the Capitol, where
they would create and live indefinitely in
a shantytown until the Congress reacted
with improved housing and welfare legislation.

But as he was going through the country recruiting people for his march, he

took time off to try to help the sanitation
workers of Memphis, 98% of whom are
Negroes. He led one march, which erupted
y
in violence.
Then he returned to that city to prove
that he could lead a non-violent demonstration.

Harrell: Students should be given
voice in hiring and firing teachers
Sociology professor Bill Harrell
proposed Friday that students be
given a voice in the hiring and

The reason for this is the fact
that “mediocrity is the norm in
the false democracy that is this
University,” observed the speak-

firing of teachers on this campus.
This would ensure that teachers
will be contracted on the basis
of their interest in students, attitudes, and educational philosophy rather than performance on
a “trivial or irrelevant” doctoral
dissertation or book publication,

Losing Harrell
Mr. Harrell, whose contract for
the next semester has not been
renewed, was termed an “exam-

ple of the type of good teaching
that is lost through the bureaucratic entanglements" on this
campus by Daniel Rosenthal of

he asserted.

His remarks were addressed to
about 150 interested students in
the Conference Theater. The forum was a continuation of last
week’s Strike For Knowledge, directly relating to the undergraduate’s educational experience, according to a spokesman for the
All-Academic Union, the sponsor
of the meeting.
Mr. Harrell likened the situation on this campus to an iron
mask utilized in the middle ages
in which a person gets trapped
in a steel structure and is thus
killed by his own vitality, “What
we’re seeing here is a stifling of
the vitality and growth of the
most energetic and creative students,” he charged.

the All-Academic Union.
Mr. Harrell also urged that immediate action be taken on a
proposal that would enable certain students to take their entire
*

course load on an experimental,
no-grading basis. He noted that
his proposal in theory has already been approved by the
President’s Ranking and Grading
Committee for implementation
next fall.

Union for reform
Jeremy Taylor, administrative
assistant in the History Depart-

ment, called for the establishment of a student union to implement needed reform. He noted

Three teachers dismissed

Spectrum

GLEN FALLS, N. Y.—Three teachers at Adirondack
Community College have been dismissed from the faculty
following their participation in a silent vigil around a flagpole. A fourth faculty member was also dismissed after he
expressed his disapproval of the firings.
The four involved are: Miss
or resistance to law and order
Jean Perkins of the Mathematics
Department; Mr. Ronald Padgham, art; Mr. Raymond Hengeldberg, history and Mr. James Jarvis, sociology. All four lacked
tenure, and consequently no official reason was given for their

dismisals.

The vigil was held Jan. 15.
Two days later, a memo was
circulated to all members of the
faculty instructing them to refrain from demonstrations on the
campus. In addition, the editor
stu dent newspaper was told
fu
that if he printed any
stories on
the dismisals, he risked suspension from the
school.

At least two previous incidents
led up to the silent vigil. Last
October, the student newspaper
printed an article stating that
violence is the answer to the
problems of
the Negro once other
avenues of change have been
closed. In reaction, the Board of
Trustees pased a resolution,
which said in part:
“No organization, group or individual within it (the College) or
connected with it shall advocate,
facilitate or tolerate violation of

In early January, 45 students

and faculty efforts in this direction.
The issues to which the AllAcademic Union is addressing itself include scheduling conflicts
and reform of Student Union
facilities.
“We want a 16 hour basis of
instruction,” Mr. Halpern urged.
This would relieve conflicts in
scheduling and would remove
the stigma of attending “Night
School,” he claimed.
Possible reforms suggested by
the Union include the establishment of a cooperative bookstore
and food service, he added.

problem.
An ad hoc committee of the
Student Association to Develop a
Residential College is working on
a proposal to create the experimental residential college. The
committee, chaired by Student
Association president Stewart
Edelstein, hopes to implement the
plan in the academic year of
1968-69;
Designed as a Communications
College, it would incorporate
many aspects of the collegiate
system envisioned for the Am-

herst campus.

People-oriented
The theme of communications
would broaden the “sphere of
learning far beyond the normal
classroom experience.” The proposal states that “its peopleoriented activities will induce
greater understanding of interpersonal relationships, communication and creative proceses.”
A group of approximately 200
students, both male and female,

and commuter, undergraduate and graduate, will develop the Communications College. The criteria of selection has
not been determined but may include an interview and an essay.

resident

A committed group of associated faculty and staff members
would assume an active role in
all “dimensions of the College including teaching,
advisement,
counselling and other relevant
areas,” Other interested faculty
will be encouraged to affiliate as
a resource group and be involved
on a more occasional basis than
the core College faculty.
The development of the College's government, administration
and policies will be guided by a
master who exemplifies “an understanding of young people and
their strivings.”
In planning stages
Copies of the proposal and philosophy are avilable in the Student
Association offices. Students interested in living in the College
should contact any member of the
committee through Mrs. Mary
Palisano in room 205, Norton

Hall.
The proposal is still in its plan

ning stages.

Administrators to be educated
A program designed to
educate administrators outside their own fields has been
undertaken the Dean of Students Office announced.
A week-long pilot project,
completed Friday, featured
speakers on varied subjects
from this campus.
Mrs. Anilia Bhatt hopes that
eventually an in-service training

program will be established “to
bridge communication with students and faculty by exposing
their areas of work to each side.”
Other schools which have attempted a program of this type
have approached it from a purely
academic viewpoint. But the program here will be developed Mrs.
Bhatt explained, so that the administration will be exposed to
individuals outside their area.
The format will include speakers
on the same theme frrom various
disciplines.
Dr. Clyde Parker from the University of Minnesota is credited
with originating the program,
which is currently in operation

The format of each session is
highly informal, so that each person can add to the productivity.
Attendance is limited to two
people from each of eight departments. The innovators would
rather see fewer people at each
session, eight to ten, for more in
depth discussion.
The idea behind the project
was explained by Mrs. Russell:
“We feel that a great deal can be
learned from others, not necessarily those that are heads of departments.”

The Dorothy Haas Lounge overflowed with humanity
Thursday afternoon for the third consecutive day as the
organizers and participants in the Strike for Knowledge tried
to judge the effectiveness of the just-completed strike.
In what was fast becoming a normal scene, students
occupied chairs, tables, window sills and the floor, while
others were crammed in tight subway formation at the rear,
spilling out into Norton lobby.
A show of hands gave two of can then challenge their princi-

the Strike’s organizers, who led
the meeting, James Hansen and
Max Wickert, the first oportunitics to assess the faculty response
to the events of the prior two
days.

Many students had arms in the
air when asked if one or two of
their classes had been cancelled,
but less than 10% kept them up
when the number was increased
to four.

The general agreement was
that many of the faculty who held
classes did cooperate by discussing the Vietnam War. However,
several students took the floor to
make specific complaints.

Some ignored Strike

One freshman said that the
Chemistry Department had completely ignored the strike. A graduate student in the Political
Science Department said that
only seven out of 30 professors in
that department discussed the
war or cancelled classes.
The Elementary Education and
Physical Education Departments
also came under attack for not
recognizing the strike.
Joe Wolberg, a member of the
Strike’s sponsoring group, The
University Community for Rational Alternatives, asked for a distinction between those professors
who took principled and those
who took a practical stand against
the strike. “We want to know the
professors who took a principled
stand on the strike,” he said. “We

Students filed into lines behind

the two audience microphones to

continue their evaluation. One
asked why no one from the military or political circles was there
to defend the system—to discuss
it from their viewpoint.
The question helped initiate a
debate on which methods would
help in communicating ideas with
those outside the University.
The Spectrum feature editor,
Barry HoltzClaw, said: “I’m sick
of teach-ins, of reinforcing each
other. One thing that was made
clear by this strike is the tremendous potentiality we’re missing. We’re missing it by staying
on campus. We should go into the
community and show our concern
for 16, 17, 18 and 19 year olds
who aren’t going to college.
Heavier criticism came from

another student who remarked he
was tired of “everyone congratulating themselves on this University being the first to have
such a strike. There are 18,000 to
20,000 students here,” how many
would go downtown, 50? 500?
We’ve got to change the rhetoric
—instead of serving the world,
to getting the hell out of the
war.”

It was disclosed Wednesday at a panel discussion during
the Strike for Knowledge, that recruiting March 11 on campus by representatives of the Army Material Command (AMC)

Command should be excluded
from the campus in accordance
with the resolution of the Faculty
Senate of Dec. 14 which stated
“that the use of University facilities for military recruitment be
withheld.”

According to Robert O’Neill,
assistant to the President, there
had been “unanimous consent”
among those that made the decision that the AMC did not fall
into the category of “military
recruitment.”
He further said that since the
“company” was run by civilians,
and since it did not recruit people into the armed forces, it was
not in violation of the resolution.
A National Science Foundatiion
report of January 1966 describes
the AMC as follows:
“The U.S. Army Material
Command (AMC), with headquarters in Building T-7, Washington,
D.C., was established in May 1962
to consolidate and coordinate the
material development and logistics functions of the Army. It
was created from components of
six former Army Technical Services: the Chemical Ordinance
Quartermaster, Signal, Engineer,
and Transportation Corps; and
from various laboratories, test
boards, and other activities of
Department of the Army staff
agencies, and the U.S. Continental Army Command.”
A division of the AMC is
the Army Weapons Command
with headquarters at Rock Island
Arsenal, Rock Island, 111. Its mission is the “integrated commodity
management of combat vehicles,
field weapons, artillery, Army
aircraft weapon systems, fire control equipment, and related
items.”
A second division is the
Army Munitions Command, whose

Arsenal, Dover, N.J. Its function
is to design and maintain “nuclear and non-nuclear ammunition; rocket and missile warhead

chemical, and biological material;
and propellant-actuated devices.”

The major economic problem
in Latin America, he explained,
involves not only redistribution
of wealth and income, but also
the increasing of production.
Redistribution leads to the distributing of poverty, not wealth.
He recommended

that to de-

velop economies, capital must be
developed either privately or
publicly. Economic reform has
been a failure because political

leaders have been led rather
than being leaders, he contended.
Freedom, Dr. Figueres claimed,
is to be chosen over social progress. “Democracy can and must

Is LBJ playing with fire?

Administration to the letter, the General who has requested

Because he deserves a promotion? That is a possibility,
but it is not entirely credible.
It looks as though Lyndon Johnson, the master political
strategist, has something up his sleeve. He realizes that he
better put something up his sleeve if he wants to be re-elected. With mounting anti-war pressure, and with dissention
within the Democratic Party accented by a strong drive for
the nomination by Robert Kennedy, Johnson knows he needs
an ace.
Some political analysts have said this is an attempt by
the President to show the nation that he is re-evaluating the
direction of the war. Once everyone realizes that he is giving
his war policy careful thought, he can return to his objective
of victory at any cost.
Others believe that Westmoreland’s removal is the first
step in ending the war. If everything is done on a carefully
planned timetable—so that negotiations begin before the voting begins in this country—Johnson can sweep the election
in November.

Ending the war is such a joyous prospect that all Lyndon
Johnson has done these past five years would be forgotten by
most voters. Analysis: The easiest way for Johnson to stay
in the White House is to make everybody happy, even if just
for a while.
The greatest problem with all this, of course, is that
while the President is playing politics, he is also playing with
the lives of thousands of Americans and Vietnamese.
If he could begin negotiations today, but is instead waiting until a politically favorable moment to do so the President is, without question a morally bankrupt individual.
If Lyndon Johnson gambles thousands of lives for the
President jackpot, we will never forgive him.
Nor will the survivors.

Nixon vs. Johnson: Worthless

make
Governor Rockefeller’s decision not
the Republican nomination came as a surprise to most political observers. The reasons for his withdrawal, however,
should not be too difficult to figure out.
It appears as though the governor could not get the
support he anticipated from Republican leaders across the
nation. But it seems even more apparent that the Republicans
are making an effort to keep the Party closely united. With
a split looming in the Democratic Party, the GOP may well
win the White House.
That may be good politics, but it is anything but good
for the voters. With no primary opposition, Richard Nixon
should easily get the nomination. A Nixon-Johnson election
is a worthless election.
It is at least fortunate that there will be some contest in
the Democratic Party. Robert Kennedy and Eugene McCarthy
have a long way to go before the Democratic Convention.
The debate on the issues will go on within the Democratic
Party, and, hopefully, Lyndon Johnson will not be renominated.
Only by stopping Johnson is there a chance for any real
election in November. Lyndon Johnson opposing Richard
Nixon for President of the United States speaks poorly for
the American political situation.

The new Publication Board
The Publications Board met Monday evening for the
first time in nearly a year. This is the first Pub Board
organized under the new charter that was adopted last fall.
It is obviously too late in the semester for the Board to
perform all the functions for which it was designed, but this
is at least a beginning.
A major contribution of the recently appointed, if shortlived, Board could be the setting up of guidelines for next
year. With the Polity system in effect, and with a shift of
financial responsibility to the Publications Board, next year’s
Board could be the most effective this University has ever
seen.
We would caution, however, that there is no room for
student politics on a Publications Board. The purposes of
the Board are to encourage student publications, promote
their quality and offer aid and advice.
A good Pub Board should be the good friend of student
publications. We hope that the new Board and its successor
in the fall will be just that.

the burgher
by Sehw;b

’Tis with a tear in mine eye that the Burgher
hits at his typewriter and begins his final column.
Springing quickly into action last fall, as the fearless, mild-mannered reporter for The Spectrum,
The Burgher pointed out countless injustices that
have occurred upon the sacred soil of this very
campus.

If ye need reminding, I first spoke of the tragic
history of the campus—the blacktop plague of ’66,
paste) TBs just for kicks; the Tiffin Room polevault championships (featuring the deans), parking
lot plunder, vandal machines; Mothers against
Meyerson, Fathers against Furnas, cries ringing out
for firings in earnest; pickets, pickets everywhere
yet not a drop to drink, then there was the Feinberg Oath to weed out Commie Finks; fraternities
banished with the bat of an eye, Yes! SUNY’s
existed under a threatening sky!

Then there was The Burger’s first venture into
01’ Hayes Hall upon Administration Stretch, where
he encountered 500 VPs, HGV2 goodly Deans and
was grilled by meely-mouthed and burly secretaries
who put me in mine place.
But Ho! Which of you could forget the Vivarium, home of BURSAR the terrible, where The
Burgher was tried and guiltied for fee paying refusal? Where, indeed, he was turned downside up
and shaken vehemently by BURSAR as his final
coins tingled upon the floor?

And Prithee! Campus squirrels are still grateful
and kind to me since their plight was put to the
public eye. The Committee Concerned about
Squirrels (CCS) and the Square Deal for Squirrels
(SDS) groups continue to vie for the four-footed,
furry creatures.

How about those trips to Albany to
the Governor and his non-candidacy?
And Rocky finally announced again that he is not
running, but did not say whether he’d accept a
genuine draft.
The Burgher has even pointed out how the Amherst Campus development will be delayed even
longer by militant groundhogs bent on undermining the present Administration’s loose con-

N’Faith!

hear out

struction policies.
There were even times when The Burgher
realized that no type of humor could be utilized
to express a certain sentiment—like getting to the
truth about Vietnam.
I had hope that the things written here would

be read other than superficially, for within the
column I tried to weave a common thread. Perhaps it failed.
All the columns-and editorials printed in all the
world’s newspapers have not led to a very sane
world. Words pass on by or are distilled somehow by every reader. Meaning is lost and few can
even come close to reconstructing the author’s actual intention.
Oft-times The Burgher did not even know what
he wanted to say when he began, and of-times he
later learned that either the point was lost or
distorted.
Haply, ye think that an advocate of truth,
justice and the American Way could easily churn
out a weekly column. ’Tis wrong to so believe.
For ’tis not a world of fair damsels and keen
deans—Nay! ’Tis indeed a teeming sphere of men
and women too hungry and without hope too long.
’Tis oppressive, impressive, progressive and retrosometimes too. And full of hope and fear and
love and hate.
To quote The Burgher: “I am oft-times daunted
by the perceptive realization that all is not right
in the world, or in this country, or even on
campus.”

To the Editor;

Clause One of the Thirteenth Amendment to
the Constitution of the United States reads as
follows:

“Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for a crime whereof the
party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist
within the United States, or any place subject
to their jurisdiction.”

If the Constitution is the supreme law of the
land, would someone please explain why the draft
is legal?
I have just finished a two-year hitch in the
United States Army, and let me make the following points clear:
1—I did not want to go
2—I did not want to stay, and

3—I am very happy that I’m still alive and
free to do as I wish once again.

If those two years weren’t “involuntary servitude,” what the hell is? Pfc,=slave, in my book.

or religious organization, together voice our an
guished concern over the war in our, country.
At the moment, in the name of the highestsounding principles, the parties of the conflict in
our country are fast reducing our villages and cities
to ashes and rubble; in the process, tearing apart
the whole fabric of our society.

W

To our widows and orphans, to our civilians
mangled and burned beyond recognition, to our
dead rotting unburied in the sun and rain, we owe
nothing less than the truth: this is not a struggle
for freedom and democracy; it has become a war
of genocide.
By now, it is clear that there are limits to what
American power can do in Vietnam; on the other

hand, there are no limits to what American power
can do to Vietnam. Unleashing on a small country
the most destructive firepower ever known to mankind, the United States has brought our nation to
the brink of annihilation. The words of the American commander, that “To save Bentre it became
necessary to destroy it,” plainly reflect the moral,
political and military bankruptcy of American policy in Vietnam. Both self-interest and moral responsibility, then, make it imperative that the
people and government of the United States take
the lead in ending this conflict.
To end the war before it is too late, we call
upon the American government to heed SecretaryGeneral U Thant’s appeal to stop all bombing of
North Vietnam. We call upon the United States

government, the government of South Vietnam,
the government of North Vietnam and the National
Liberation Front to promptly reach a peaceful
settlement. A lasting peace for Vietnam should be
based upon a total withdrawal of foreign troops
that will allow us, Vietnamese, to shape our future
free from all foreign interference.
We urgently appeal to the world community,
through the United Nations, to condemn, in view
of their devastating effects on our people, the use
of chemical warfare, napalm, and anti-personnel
bombs. Finally, to prevent the ultimate crime
against mankind, we ask the General Assembly
to forbid the use of nuclear weapons by any party
in this conflict.

what the nature of next year’s
draft will be. So he listened to
the panelists this year with a
keener ear, a broader respect for
new possibilities.

The possibility, out in the open
at last in 1968, is that, of course,
the NLF is right and must be
supported; that Americans must
study their Marxism and come
to grips with it. At a summer
1965 teach-in at this campus one
of the speakers described himself
as a Marxist—“there are still
some of us left” and the audience
giggled or jumped in distrust.
Last week Ralph Schoenman terminated a fiery, articulate speech
with a plea for a rebuilding of
the tarnished image of communism and the entire Haas lounge
exploded into prolonged applause.
Throughout the Strike speakers
attacked the contradictions in the
capitalist system, spoke of “transforming” or “overthrowing” that
system, and were rewarded with
positiv, if not always enthusiastic, receptions.

More and more the idea of wars
of national liberation against
American tin, tungsten, oil interests is capturing the student’s
imagination and no efforts of sincere, but conciliatory McCarthys

or blatantly opportunist Kennedys will recapture it. Earnest
and moral as McCarthy himself
may be, his liberal vision is incomplete, temporizing, perhaps
dangerous. He will not be able
to end the war in Vietnam, president or not, unless he calls for
an immediate withdrawal of our
troops and exploitative economic

interests from the throats of the
world’s people. For they will accept no less, and the response of
students to the Strike indicates
that they will accept no less
either.

I owe the Sociology Department this column;
whether I owed them this or not, however, I would
write it. Hopefully, the events in sociology could
serve as a model for the other departments on
campus.
For the past few months I have been criticizing
the faculty of my department for having given
students only token power with which to make
decisions relevant to such things as curriculum
planning. I said that although students were allowed to sit on the Undergraduate Committee, it
really did not mean anything and we still had no
real voice. I criticized the faculty for being verbally liberal and actually conservative. From my
point of view all that I said was true. But then
I decided to try something really radical.
I went to see Lew Gross, the Chairman of the
Department, who by then had, of course, heard
of me. When I went to make an appointment with
his secretary and I informed her that I was an
undergraduate, she informed me that “Dr. Gross
doesn’t usually see undergraduates.” But that was
the last disappointing thing that I was to hear for
the next few days. I went to see him and I was
the first person in the department to actually ask
the Chairman for something. I was the first person to physically try to change things. And it
worked. I told Dr. Gross that students should and
must be allowed to attend the all-faculty meetings
held once a month during which all the decisions
take place. I said that as a member of the Undergraduate Committee, I deserved the right to address the group that would make the final decisions
about things I had worked on.
Dr. Gross agreed. He promised to address the
faculty that was meeting that same afternoon and
request that Debby Wagner, the other representative, and myself be allowed to attend the meeting.
After waiting outside the room for a few minutes,
the door was opened and we were allowed in. For
the first time in the history of the department and,
to my knowledge, the University students were
allowed to attend a meeting of all tenured faculty
to discuss departmental policies.
The faculty then proceeded to ask us a number
of questions about what we thought was wrong with
the department and what we wanted to see done.
I told them that students must be able to be involved in the recruitment and maintenance and
promotion of faculty. I told them that each of the
components, the undergraduates, graduates and
faculty must meet together in council on all matters in which that particular group is involved. I
told them that it isn’t enough to allow students on
a recommending committee when they have no
access to the real decision-making process. They
listened, and most of them liked what they heard.
After months of writing about the character and
make-up of faculty, I had a chance to see them
personally, and I was pleased.
We then had a discussion about student-faculty
participation and what we could do to substantively
change the present structure. Dr. Yeracaris made a
proposal which set up a committee made up of
two tenured faculty, two non-tenured faculty, two
graduate students and two undergraduates to revise
the department the way they deem best. This to
me is revolutionary changes being brought about
within the present structure, I have no answers for
what caused this sudden change. But this resolution passed unamimously, 17-0. Then a second resolution was passed which allowed students to
attend the faculty meetings until the new committee makes its recommendations.
What all this goes to show is that the best way
to change things is to try to change things. The
best way to get what you want, is to ask for it.
We make assumptions about people that we rarely
confront. I know of very few students who have
even even gone to their chairmen to ask for changes.
I was as skeptical of the faculty, as anyone could
have been. In fact, I went to them, not expecting
to get what I wanted so much as to officially get
refused. Not only was I not refused, I was unamimously endorsed
I hope the Sociology Department can become a
model for all the departments on campus. Perhaps
the faculty aren’t as evil as their action or inaction
shows them to be; perhaps they are simply lazy or
lack innovation. Why don’t you go to see your
chairman
ask for what you desire. When the
committee established to make changes is through,
I hope other departments will take notice of what
we are going to do. Good luck to you . . . and have
a nice vacation.

S, pe drum interview

McCarthy represents rebirth of Progressivism'
Jeffrey Lynford is benefiting from a unique opportunity in
education: To receive college credit for “field world’ outside the
classroom. Jeff, a junior honors history major, currently spending
a semester serving on the administrative staff at Senator Eugene
McCarthy’s Washington campaign headquarters. Prior to accepting the job offer in January, he arranged with the history department and University College to take two six-week credit history
courses of his own design, related to his experiences in working for
the Minnesota Senator.
Back in Buffalo for a day to disesus the first of three planned
papers with his advisors, Jeff took time out to give his fellow students some inside observations on the surprising success of the peace
candidacy of Senator McCarthy.
Following are excerpts from an hour-long conversation with
Feature Editor Barry Holtzclaws

Is it at all possible to characterize McCarthy supporters as predominantly newcomers to the political scene, such as students and professors and
enchanted liberals?

groups of dis-

Originally we had a relatively small
number of party professionals, but the
ones we did have were excellent. Since
our victory in New Hampshire, we have
had calls, constantly, from party professionals who want to resign their positions
to become involved here and work
for us.
I would say that Senator McCarthy represents a rebirth of Progressivism. There
is a lot of grass-roots support that normally does not become involved in a political campaign. In other words, there
were a lot of people who were not party
professionals who came out to support the
...

Senator.

There were some professors, there were
some students, but there were also a lot
of professional people, a lot of blue-collar
people, all representing a large segment
of one part of the old FDR Democratic
Party coalition.
Of course, the South was not in it, and
the Negro is not yet in it, but the middle
class, and lower middle class have up to
now been the mainstay of the enthusiasm
for Senator McCarthy.
Were the McCarthy people really surprised at the New Hampshire results?
We expected over 30%. We said that
if we got over 30% we would consider it
a victory, and that if we got 15% we’d
close up shop. We got 42% of the Democratic vote, and if you put the Republican
votes together with this, we only polled
200 votes less than Johnson, which was
more than we expected. In a hawkish,
conservative state like New Hampshire,
it was very good showing for us, a magnificent showing.
Once the Senator moves into the more
populous states, requiring more sophisticated campaign techniques, many have
said that the inexperience of the McCarthy campaign machinery will hurt.
What changes in tactics are you planning,
for example, in Wisconsin?
As the campaign becomes more and
more complex, we become more and more
sophisticated in our physical communication, in the amount of literature, in the
sophistication of the literature. We order
. . . millions of buttons, bumperstickers,
brochures, tax pieces, labor pieces, and
farm pieces. We are hiring more and
more staff all the time, and we’re getting
large numbers of professional volunteers.
. . . Right now we have 50 phone lines,
and they’re constantly busy with calls
from all across the country.
What about money? The initial boost
for the McCarthy campaign came from
private fund raising.
Has the source of
income expanded to include, for example,
large segments of the business community?

We have had sizable contributions from
the business community, and the money
has increased ten-fold since the victory
in New Hampshire.
What about the “intellectual" image of
Senator McCarthy—will it hurt him, as
some have said it hurt Adlti Stevenson

in the past?
The image that has been portrayed of
Senator McCarthy is one that the press

has put together. Senator McCarthy has
been in the Congress of the United States
for 20 years. He served 10 years in the
House, and was elected to the Senate form
Minnesota in 1958
He is on two of
the top three most powerful Senate committees, Finance and Foreign Relations
. . . Now, for a Senator to be in those positions in his second term shows that he
is well-respected by his colleagues, that
he is willing to look at issues and . . .
...

work on them.

Therefore, the image of an intellectual,
and purely an intellectual, is a figment of
the imagination. He has worked extensively in the party structure. He is lowkeyed, and he is rational.
Now, this
might be labeled intellectual, but this is
the alternative he is presenting to the
emotionalism of the sixties.
Much has been said in liberal circles
of the contribution the Senator has made
for the youth of this country. From your
experience, has the candidacy of
Senator McCarthy increased the possibility of successful change within the American political system?
There are many young people who were
upset about the urban crises, about the
financial crises, about the crises in Far
Eastern involvement before the Senator
came along. We looked for people to
say something about it, people who were
in positions to do something about it.
own

Alternative methods of dealing with
frustrating problems were discussed. Some
people advocated revolution in the
streets . . . Speaking for myself, I never
say that the ends justify the means . . .
I was always a little skeptical of revoluI was looking
tion as an alternative
around for some way to correct the situation, all the while living my life style,
so that, as a member of society, I could
do my little bit, my thing.
Once McCarthy came on the scene, I
decided I’d try it and see what happened.
I think that the evidence is clear from
election returns, from the legitimacy now
of dissent in time of war, that Senator
McCarthy has done a great thing, and this
country is working toward correcting
those problems, or at least toward creating a viable alternative which can correct
the problems.
Even before New Hampshire, I was convinced that Senator McCarthy was a good
man, an honest man, I didn’t know how
the public would react, but I was working
all-out for him. The public has reacted
very well in my opinion. My faith in humanity is restored, somewhat and I have
the feeling that there will be change, and
that, as the younger generation, my generation, becomes older, the change will
come more rapidly.
...

What did Senator McCarthy mean when

he said that he was glad that Senator
Kennedy had entered the race, in the
sense that it would "open up" the Democratic convention in Chicago?
Senator Kennedy has a definite following. Senator McCarthy has a definite following. Together, these followings make
up a large segment of the party. There’s
another segment of the party which will
not make a commitment until it sees
which way the wind is blowing.
By these two candidates coming out towards the same ends, it will bring a lot
more people into the situation who will
not be committed to Johnson by the time
the convention comes.
The President has been intimately involved with the infra-structure of the

Democratic Party since the Thirties, when
he fancied himself FDR's protege, and
many observers feel that his control of
the congressional party, and now, since

becoming president, of the party operatives and state committees, is a powerful
factor in an election year.
Other than organized labor, who always are looking for the side on which

their bread is buttered, President John-

son has not kept control. The coalition of
FDR was the South, the minority groups,

labor, and the intellectuals. LBJ has
alienated the intellectuals, he has frustrated the Negroes, he has upset the
South, he has watched the cities disinte-

grate.

He was a politician in the most expert
sense, in the Congress, when he had to
deal with a certain number of the most
politically powerful men, but since coming to office, he has, in fact, disdained
the states . . . His power is in old lOUs,
but he has not been checking up on them

It used to be that the Democratic
national committee maintained the “muscle tone” of the party . . but since LBJ
put his own puppets in there, it has not
managed to keep the Democrats together.
What sort of long-range planning beyond
the convention has been discussed in the
...

McCarthy headquarters?
The long-range planning does go beyond the convention . . . We are seeking
to elect other officials in government—from Assemblymen right here in Buffalo,
to new Senators, and new Congressmen—so that beyond the convention, there will
be other people elected to offices, and
this will be the first leg of a new progressive politics.
From your vantage point, has there
been a heightening of activity in the
Johnson camp?
Definitely . . . Johnson is not going to
let the New Hampshire thing happen again
and he’s not going to let the Massachusetts
thing happen again . . . Humphrey will
probably make a swing through Wiscon-

sin.
Johnson, for the first time, came out
of his house, out of his routine of speaking to troops leaving for Vietnam, at Air
Force bases watching planes, to speak to
1000 Minnesota farmers—and, of course,
none of them clapped.

He will get out more and more.
He realizes that he cannot, in this day
of mass media, run a fireside, backporch
campaign . . . and expect to win.

“Nobody comes here by accident. The
mere fact that you are here at all shows that
you have in you one of the basic qualities
needed for Krishna Consciousness
the
desire to learn. Krishna has selected you,
perhaps through the means of The Spectrum,
to find him and help spread his word.”
With that elevating thought, spoken by
the instructor, I began my adventure into
Krishna Consciousness and transcendental
meditation, an Experimental College course
taught by M.L. Goel and currently being
guest lectured by Rupanuga das Adhikary,
a former Department of Welfare Supervisor
who became involved in Krishna Consciousness when he heard Swami A.C. Bhaktivedanta chanting in a park in the East Village
some 17 months ago.
“I knew beforehand a spiritual leader
would appear to me, but I knew I couldn’t
look for him. The minute I saw the Swami,
I knew he was from outer space. I knew this
was him.”
Embarassment
Somehow I couldn’t quite share his enthusiasm that I, too, was destined for Krishna
Consciousness. During the first Kirtan I
attended (Kirtan is the name of the service
which includes chanting and a lecture on
transcendental subject matter, followed by
more chanting) my most burning desire was
not for Krishna, but for a cigarette. During
the second, my leg fell asleep sitting crosslegged on the floor. Undaunted and everdedicated to the cause of journalism (if Life
reporter, Jane Howard, could do it, so could
I), and seeing as I was already facing “formidable” competition (“The Buffalo Evening
News already scooped you,” I was informed
at the first meeting; “their reporter entitled
the article ‘Swing and Sway the Meditation
Way’) I vowed to stick with it, despite my
apparent shortcomings.
I even tried chanting “Hare Krishna” (the
best way to reach Krishna Consciousness as
it breaks the knot of material contamination
and purifies the senses), but wound up feeling just off-key and slightly embarrassed by
the throngs of curious observers, their noses
pressed up against the glass panes of Norton
Conference Room, undoubtedly drawn by the
smell of incense and sound of tinkling cymbals drifiting down Norton’s staid halls.
'Teloh' and a tuft
Mr. das Adhikary turned out not to be
the sheet-bedecked Swami I was picturing
after reading through Back to Godhead, the
magazine of the International Society for
Krishna Consciousness. He was dressed in
a maroon sweater and corduroy jeans, and
the only really unusual thing about him was
a streak of white paint he had on his forehead and nose (it is called the “teloh” and
is the natural mark of the soul, it means
Krishna Consciousness) and his haircut,
which verged on baldness except for a small
tuft of hair at the back which signifies him
as a devotee.
In a matter of minutes he had transformed the room into a small temple, complete with an altar resting on an oriental rug
and displaying pictures of three Swamis,
candles and an incense burner. He passed
out some small musical instruments and
launched into two solo chants before “Hare
Krishna” on which the whole assembly joined
in. After about ten minutes he got up and
danced around the altar for a while. I was
curious as to how long the chants generally
last, as it seemed like everyone knew just
when he would stop. I found out there is no
set ritual at all.
“I’ve gone eight hours at a time,” Mr. das
Adhikary said. “I once saw it go on for four
hours in a park on the Lower East Side.”

I was rather thankful that this was not
one of the marathon sessions for, instead of
emerging with purified senses, their condition bordered on numb, and I could feel the
start of Excedrin Headache No. 83: The Spec-

trum assignment.
Lecture worthwhile
However, I did find the lecture well worth
the preliminaries. Krishna Consciousness
dates from time eternal. It was delivered to
Earth several million years ago from outside
the universe, where it originated, and since
that time has been passed down from Spiritual Master.
Swami Bhaktivedanta brought it to the
West in 1965, and since that time five temples
have been founded in the U.S. and one in
Montreal.
Krishna Consciousness devotees consider
it a science rather than a religion. Its basic
precept is founded on Hinduism, in that God
can be found in every creature and object,
and that the purpose of human life is to
realize the godliness in oneself, but it is more
than that. The achievement of Krishna Consciousness brings with it a wealth of pleasure and bliss in the vast store of knowledge
to be uncovered when we regain our natural
energy through Krishna.
We are all more or less hopelessly stuck
in the quagmire of materialism; we t.Ak of
ourselves as matter and hence miss the spiritwe miss the chance for self-realization,
ual
which is the aim of Krishna Consciousness.
"Hare Krishing"

(hence the importance placed on participation
by all at the Kirtan).

“What we feel when chanting the Maha
(Great) Mantra is a taste of the highest pleasure eternal. That taste gradually develops
to infinite proportions, expands in endless
sweet varieties of concentrated ecstasy. You
don’t have to change anything
just chant.
What is necessary to adopt will become evident. What is bad will automatically drop
away,” Mr. das Adhikary explained.
Swami Bhaktiedanta has called the dancing
and singing accompanying the Kirtan “a
spiritual call for the Lord and his Energy.”
At the Kirtan all five senses are incorporated into the highest form of yoga one can
engage in (yoga means connection
the connection to Krishna)
the chant for hearing,
incense for smell, beads for touch, pictures
of Krishna and the Spiritual Masters for sight,
and spiritual food for taste.
Transmigration
Another aspect of Krishna Consicousness
is the concept of transmigration. If we attain
self-realization in this life, wo go to Krishna
Loca in the next, a planet where we are in
close communion with Krishna. If, however,
self-realization is not accomplished, the form
we assume rests on a composite of our actions
in past lives and this life. It is possible to
change not only species and sex, but even
planets from life to life. At the moment of
death, we pass immediately into the womb
where our next form lies. Seven months pass
before we attain consciousness in our next
form, though we don’t remember past lives.
In order to achieve Krishna Consciousness, one must give up intoxicants of all
kinds, especially cigarettes, alcohol and
drugs (“Intoxicants only take you further
away from yourself. You can’t get any further in, either. With Krishna you can “stay
high forever”), fantasy, mental speculation,
and “endless sex pursuits” (“We don’t say
‘No sex’,” Mr. das Adhikary goes on to say.
‘Just no promiscuity.’ It takes up too much
of our time. Besides which, the pleasures to
be derived from sex are all to be found in
the relationship we have with Krishna, only
to a greater degree.”)
Maharishi's fraud
Krishna Consciousness has, of course,
been around for a long time. Mr. das Adhikary mentioned in one of his lectures that
Krishna comes down to Earth every eight
trillion four hundred billion years, and that’s
only his appearances!
Yet its current popularity can undoubtedly be laid, in part, at the feet of none other
than the perpetual mark of instant success
itself, the Beatles. They, along with Shirley
MacLaine and Mia Farrow, are disciples of
the most famous guru of them all
the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, whom Mr. das Adhikary
considereds an out and out fraud. “He had
to come to America. The people in his own
country wouldn’t accept him.” He doesn’t
consider the Maharishi’s method of assigning nonsense syllables to repeat in order to
reach subtler levels of consciousness true
transcendental meditation (that is the discussion of subject matter of a transcendental
nature as he is doing in the Experimental
College course). And as one critic put it after
the Maharishi’s famous lecture in New York:

—Grimmer

Spectrum columnist is not enchanted by Experimental College
course, "Krishna Consciousness and Transcendental Meditation."

“Jesus never sold ten dollar tickets to the
Sermon on the Mount.” However, the Maharishi’s influence can scarcely be scoffed at
in terms of dollars and cents. Indian clothes
are now the rage at boutiques; actress Rita
Tushingham is in the process of filming “The
Guru” and Marlon Brando plays one in the
upcoming movie “Candy.” Even popular music has cashed in on the fad
the most notable example being the Strawberry Alarm
Clock’s “Sit with Guru” (a sampling of the
immortal lyrics;
• • full potential, transcendental
Sit with guru, Meditation
High, high wear eagles fly,
Leave today untouched in the sky,
Stretch out your mind to humanity,
How amny tomorrows can you see?”)
Materialism
Sadly enough, even the Krishna Consciousness magazine Back to Godhead spends
53 pages slamming materialism as no way to
reach Krishna, and then presents five consecutive pages of advertisements which, pardon the expression, reek of materialism. For
example, the 1968 transcendental life calendar can be yours for only one dollar, and
for a mere three and a quarter you can thrill
to Swami Bhativedanta explaining “the true
meaning and glory of the Hare Krishna Mantra.” Even Mr. das Adhikary himself seems
slightly tinged by this nasty materialistic
world, hawking day-glo posters of the Hare
Krishna chant, “so you can build your own
temple at home” or boxes of incense just
in from New York.
—

Beyond acid

Nevertheless, Krishna Consciousness is at
trading devotees in ever-increasing numbers.
“Some come from curiosity, some from genuine interest, and some even from despair,”
Mr. das Adhikary says.
Perhaps the reaction of one student I
talked to best expresses the faction that
comes from genuine interest: “The first time
I ever heard of Krishna Consciousness was
about two years ago in the Village Voice,”
he said. “A short time after that I met them
durig a peace parade. I mean, there comes
a point when you just grow out of the acid
scene. I don’t know if this is really it yet,
as I’m not fully realized, but I’ll tell you this
it’s the nearest I’ve come with anything
—

I’ve ever tried.”
Unfortunately

not all of the motives for
trying Krishna Consciousness are so exemplary.
“I thought it would be a jazzy, kicksy
thing to do,” one girl at the New York temple said, “but the incense made me sick and
the people weren’t «iy sort at all. It’s all just
a fad like psychiatry
all my friends who
went to shrinkers five years ago are going to
Swamis now.”
Another young lady, when asked during
the Kirtan whether she’d rather have a
banana or a date, sighed: “I wish I did have
a date.”
However, in the end, Krishna Consciousness is a personal thing, and if you are at
all interested, it is well worth the trip to
the second floor of Norton any Tuesday or
Thursday evening at 8 p.m.

by English rock group

■ ■■

LIM

by Joseph Fernbacher
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Let it be known that this country is being Creamed.
One of the latest rock groups to come out of England, The
Cream, is spreading, and seems to have homogenized a great
number of rock enthusiasts from the Atlantic to Pacific
Coasts.
This is being done by their two
very successful albums, “Cream,

Fresh Cream,” and “Disraeli
Gears.” This trio is composed of
three young musicians who have
become giants in the musical
world individually as well as in
a group. When one listens to
Cream pouring out of a record
player, he is listening to the
wailing of Eric Clapton’s guitar;
the furious drumming of Ginger
Baker, and the intense moaning
of Jack Bruce’s bass and harmonica.

Long solos
Eric Clapton, 22, has been the
driving force behind a number
of highly successful groups, these
being “The Yardbirds,” and
“John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers.”
He is the spokesman for the

group and says that he used to
get fired from different groups
because of his strong desire to
engage in long solos. When he
broke ties with the Yardbirds, he
decided to form his own group
and knew that he had to get Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce.
Jack Bruce, 23, the bass player, has been vocalist and bass
player with such groups as Manfred Mann, while Ginger Baker,
28, is perhaps the most outstanding drum soloist in the entire
rock scene. His intricate stickwork and complex rhythms give
Cream a beat that very few rock
groups can equal. Baker has been
known literally to break up the
places he is staying at, for he has
the habit of pounding on anything that happens to be near, be
it furniture or otherwise.
Blue Cream
In Cream’s first album, “Cream,
Fresh Cream,” we are given a
number of cuts which show the
group’s intense blues and improvisational style. “Sleepy TimeTime” is a number which has a
very delicate interlacing of the
hard rock sound and deep southern blues. In one of the best cuts
on the album, we are given a
number which is intense in its

traditional blues style. This number, “Rollin’ and a Tumblin,” is
an old Muddy Waters tune updated into the style of the Cream,
It goes well longer than five
minutes in length.
Another number that also goes
way over the five minute mark
is an original composition by
drummer Ginger Baker called
“Toad.” In it is one of the best
drum solos that has ever been
put into a rock number. The
listener is taken on a musical
journey into the wastelands of
emotions by a drum solo that
reminds one of riding on a bumpy
train at a high rate of speed.
One of the reasons for the
slow rise of Cream into the mainstream of musical attention has
been attributed to the length of
their solos and improvisations.
It was difficult for radio stations
to play their compositions because it is hard to squeeze a six
or seven minute song between
commercials.
Cream to the top
The next album they came out
with is also an excellent example
of the predominance of blues
that inhabits the group. It is entitled “Disraeli Gears” and promises to be the one that will shoot
the Cream all the way to the top.
In number like “We’re Going
Wrong” or “Outside

Woman

Blues,” the emotion is expressed
in the wailing of the instruments.
One of the best, if not the best,
cuts on this album is a little
number called “Tales of Brave
Ulysses.” This song is a rarity
for the Cream, for in it we find
some very interesting lyrical patterns. It is also typical Cream
with its delicate balance between
the strong blues and the extremely hard rock.
Also on this album is the song
they decided to release as their
first single, “Sunshine For Your
Love’"which is just a plain hard
rock number a la creme.
All that remains to be said is
that America is about to be hit
with a barrage of Cream-pies.

The Electric Prunes were, according to many, one
of the most successful events of Spring Arts. Too
bad the acoustics and the sound system in general, of the Millard Fillmore Room, didn't match
them.

Prunes

Electric Prunes give impressive
show despite poor sound system
by Joseph Fernbacher

Staff

Reporter

they immediately went into a
series of numbers which literally

shook the whole of Norton Hall.

Despite the general drawbacks
of having any kind of musical
event in the Millard Fillmore
Room, the Electric Prunes and a
unique light show that accompanied them gave a performance
which showed not only their

great technical skill, but also
their great patience with a sound
system that would have insulted
even Abe Lincoln.

This event proved to be the
most successful program of the
entire Spring Arts Festival. After
waiting in line for an hour we
were finally let into a room that,
when filled with as many people
that were present, could have
passed as the Black Hole of Calcutta. After this the fun began.
The Prunes were introduced by
a towering figure, presumably
their manager, clad from head
foot in white with a starstudded cape draped over his
shoulders that a first glance
looked like an American flag.
After the group got on stage,

to

Force and desire
Judging from their albums,
however, “Underground” and
“The Mass in F Minor,” the
Prunes seemed to be a bit disappointing. But then after getting caught up in their music,
the audience was swept away
into worlds of unreality and confusion by the intense force and
desire with which the group was
experiencing their music.
Some of the songs that could
be heard, as far as some of the
lyrics go, were “Get Me To the
World On Time” and their first
hit, “I Had Too Much to Dream
Last Night.” I was also told that
they did a version of “Tobacco
Road” and “A Long Days Flight
Into Tomorrow,” a song which is
featured on their second album.

Express emotions
It is said that when musicians
play, they play to express their
emotions. From what I gathered

at the concert last Thursday, the
Electric Prunes were a pretty
mad bunch of musicians. And
believe me, they had every right
to be, for the sound system in
the Millard Fillmore Room is so
bad that even with the aid of four
mikes, the lead singer couldn’t
be heard, and when he was heard
it was unintelligible. If the next
committee to get a group decides
to have it in the Fillmore Room,
they’d better expect a poor showing, for people are getting sick
and tired of having to listen to
music which has no lyrics to go
with it. First it was the Left
Banke Concert, if you all remember that fiasco, and now it’s the
Electric Prune Concert. What,
next?
Generally speaking though, I
feel that the Electric Prunes
were very impressive in their
showmanship and musical talent.
To put it bluntly, their music
was damn good but the sound
system was, to again put it mildly, crappy. A fact that should be
rectified soon or else we simply
will not get any more ‘name’
groups.

who is on the verge of committing
suicide for unrequited love when
Cook enters the scene as Lucifer.

Reviewer

What makes people laugh?
It would be easier to predict
when the war in Vietnam will
end than to try to fortell what
will strike people as funny. That
is why I’d normally be very reluctant to recommend a comedy
as a “must-see” film. But “Bedazzled,” now appearing at the Circle
Art Theater, is not a normal
film. It is the brashest, wittiest,
most irreverent and satiric film
to come along in many years.
The men most responsible for
making “Bedazzled” a super film
comedy are Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. They first achieved
fame as half of the “Beyond the
Fringe” group that was such a

success in London and New York.

Their only other film appearance
before “Bedazzled” was an alltoo-brief part in “The Wrong
Box” (probably the last intentionally funny film I’ye seen before
“Bedazzled”).

When Cook and Moore combine
their talents with producer-director Stanley Donen, the result is
not only a film that is incredibly
funny, but also cinematically exciting.
Funny and exciting
“Bedazzled” is a much-updated

Faust tale set in modern London.

The rest of the film concerns
how Moore spends the seven

wishes he receives in return for
his soul.
One of the more interesting aspects of the movie is its view of
Lucifer and his relationship to
God. The problem of temptation
resolves itself into a game or
contest, with the prize going to
whoever gains one hundred billion souls first.
Cook’s Lucifer is a rather sympathetic individual who spends
his time tearing out the last page
of an Agatha Cristie novel,
scratching records, and promising
sweet old ladies dates with Alif they have ten
fred Hitchcock
bottles of Green Pruny Eyewash
in their home.
—

The film’s humor runs the
gamut from incisive social commentary and religious irreverance
to atrocious puns. It also contains some of the funniest oneliners I have ever heard.
Perhaps “Bedazzled” will never
be acclaimed as a classic comedy
like “Day at the Races,” “The
Bank Dick,” “Modern Times,” etc.)
but it is undoubtedly the funniest
film in several years and eminently worth seeing.

Kleinhans Music Hall on April 1

In his college days Bill Cosby
was noted as an athlete at
Temple University. Even today he
says that if he had been offered
$14,000 a year to play football he
wouldn’t be Bill Cosby “entertainer” today.

This man is of course, Bill Cosby (alias Silver Throat, Cos, and
Alexander Scott.) Cosby a man of
many talents has a total of five
comedy albums and two singing
albums, he also has contracts for
two upcoming movies, a highly

ranked television program called
“I Spy,” and another T.V. special
which was just aired over the networks last week.
Cosby has been the originator
of such comedy classics as
Noah,” “A Monster Chicken
Heart,” “Greasy Kids Stuff” and
“Karate.” The greatness of his
comedy is due to the warmth,
honesty and humanity it exhibits.
Allan Sherman, another great
comedian, has said, “Bill Cosby
has a wonderful, cockeyed, fresh,
sense of humor. He is so good
that what he has is more than
talent; he has the gift of comedy.
He has something that makes you
feel delight when you’re with
him
in an office, in a nightclub, or standing on a street corner. He has joy in being alive,
and he communicates it to you,
so that when you see or hear him
you are glad to be alive.”
...

Bill Cosby, the comedian, began
his career, as have so many
others, in the bistros of Greenwich Village, where he was discovered by a New York Times reporter. Farthest from Cosbys
mind at this time was his becoming a serious actor. Yet when he
met with Sheldon Leonard, a one
time comedian turned producer,
he was convinced to take the role
of Alexander Scott in the television series “I Spy.” The proof
of Leonard’s faith came when

excells. If anyone can listen to
“Noah” and his conversation with
the Lord before the great flood as
put forth by Cosby and not be
rolling on the floor I say that this
person is not human. His best
routine is that of the giant Chicken Heart. This bit of comedy may
well be the best bit of humor to
come out of any man in the past
decade. The thing that makes this
so true is the fact that Cosby
doesn’t tell jokes like a regular
stand-up comedian he uses his instant recall to conjure up pictures
of a boyhood that almost everyone can identify with. Except
girls that is.

Besides comedy and acting
Cosby has branched out into the

music world with his rock-androll album “Silver Throat” and a

Valuable information

My trepidation after reading

this almost caused me to ignore
the book. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the book in
reality does contain much valuable information for anyone contemplating a European vacation,

help themselves to drinks on the

The novice traveller may find it

helpful to avoid such places as
“Robert’s Harbour Club” in the
Bahamas with “the atmosphere
as uninhibited as the frat house.”
Anyway, I would avoid it.

Today’s column is on one of-those-l’d-better-write-it-now-while
Or it can
be more accurately retitled what do Morio Shlgematsu, Aurele Vandendriessche and Stan McKenzie have in common.
hinking-abouMi-or-l'll-fOt-fiet-all-abouI-it-tyDe-siibiccts.

Actually, the story of the Boston Marathon is very dear to my
heart and to the hearts of all other amateur runners (for those over
40, substitute the word jogger for runner).

We would never forget this event.
The date is circled in red months beforehand as runners from
all over the world get ready for this annual race. Unfortunately,
most people don’t share this impending excitement for the simple
fact that they couldn’t care less.
How do people get involved with the Marathon in the first place?
Why do people make a pilgrimage every April to the Athens of
America for the privilege of standing out in the rain (it always
seems to rain on the day of the Marathon), watching a few hundred
hardy souls run, walk, or crawl, 26 miles and 385 yards for the fun
of it and wishing that they can be out there running also?

A person becomes an amateur runner when he gets stung by
the “running bug.” It can strike anytime, anyplace, and anywhere.
It feeds on male or female, young or old, athlete or nonatblete alike.
The only recognizable symptom is the compulsive urge to do some

Kazer sets recor

Fencing team has undefeated season
The University’s freshman feneing team completed an unbeaten
season a couple of weeks ago.
'

There are

many categories of

amateur runners.

biggest category and the one that I am in consists of those
people who, for the heck of it, like to put on a pair of sweat togs
and take a couple of laps around the block. No attempt is made at
setting any records of lasting value and after three quarters of an
hour, people are satisfied and go home feeling fit.

The most extreme example of amateur runners are the marathan addicts. These extremists think it’s nothing at all to go out
and have a 20-mile workout over the worst set of terrain that they
can find. Wherever a marathon is held, the same small group gathers together and just delights in running among friends.
This last statement reveals a very important aspect of an ama-

teur runner’s life, one which I have neglected to tell you so far, but
one that must be brought out into the open. It is the attitudes that

&gt;

other people (ie. the non-runners) attach to us. To be frank, most
people believe that anyone who likes to run just for the sake of
running must be nuts.
Of course this is true.
The best way to describe the plight of the amateur runner is
to use my own experience this summer.
Every weekday I would come home from my job at about 10
p.m., change into some grubby clothes and go out and do some running, Whenever I passed some normal people, they would look at
me with mixed emotions. They wondered what could possibly
make me run at this time at night. Some people, to assay their
consciences, would actually stop and ask me if I was a member of
the track team.
I knew that I couldn’t possibly convince them that I was running for the fun of it, so I would say yes. The other emotion which
they registered was the pathetic look of sedate people. It was as
if they were young again, they would be out running and having
a good time, too.
Now that you know something about the life of an amateur
runner, you might have some notion as to how we feel about the
Boston Marathon. Deep down in every amateur runner’s heart, there
is this great dream to run one day in the Marathon.
Each year many people do. On Patriot’s Day (April 19 which
is a state holiday in Massachusetts), hundreds of males (no women
are allowed although some do sneak in) gather in suburban Hopkintoin for the start of the race. They come from all over the world
in every size and shape imaginable. The Marathon is open to anyone who shows up. For one day Boston forgets about the Red Sox
and focuses its attention on the Marathon. Along the route, people
line the streets and local radio-television networks cover it quite
extensively. The only thing that can possibly be critcized about the
entire proceedings is the fact that it is un-American for an Ameriean to win the race. The last American to win \yas Johnny Kelley
m 1957. Since then the foreign entries have dominated the proceedings. In recent years, for example, first the Belgians and then
the Japanese have huled supreme. But do not fear; there is hope.
Last year Mr. McKenzie, a gent from New Zealand, surprised
everyone including the favored Japanese by coming in first. Guess
who came in second and fourth? Would you believe two Americans
by the names of Tom Laris and Louis Castagnola.
Holy smoke, maybe this year the mayor of Boston can give his
presentation speech
in English.

Just getting 3 weeks of shaves per charge

New York's delegates Leege is director of Research Center
are subject of struggle
BINGHAMTON, N. Y.

(UPD

—

Supporters of President

struggle last week for New York’s bloc of 190 delegates to
the Democratic national convention.
Upstate leaders were sharply divided in their choice as
more than 1000 persons including many county chairmen
gathered for a testimonial dinner for State Chairman John
J. Burns, a Kennedy supporter.
County

Oneida

Chairman G.

Carl Morse called for a boycott
of the dinner to protest Mr. Burns

endorsement of Sen. Kennedy.

In New York City, Council President Frank O’Connor, the first
elected official in the state to
back Kennedy in 1964, was named
to head a statewide committee in
support of President Johnson. National Committeeman Edwin
Weisl said the President was not
consulted about the choice.
New York Democrats will send
188 delegates to the convention
plus two at-large, for a total of
190. Under the selection system
123 will be picked in the primaries, and 65 will be named by the
300-member state committee.
Upstate leaders were irked because Sen. Kennedy failed to consult them before making his announcement, Since then Mr.
Burns has been holding conferences with county chairmen to
cool their irritated nerves.

Rep. Samuel Stratton of Amsterdam says he will cast a Republican vote in the next election if
the party nominates Sen. Kennedy.
Rep. Joseph Y. Resnick of Ellenville, a Johnson supporter, has
vowed to spend “any amount of
money” to defeat primary candidates supporting Sen. Kennedy.
Recently 17 rural county chairmen in western and central New
York went on record in support

of Johnson.

Dr. David C. Leege, current director of the Opinion Survey
Program at the University of
Missouri, has been appointed director of a newly established

State University of Buffalo.
The Center will be a basic
research facility which may be
used by faculty members of the
University. It will also be available to agencies outside the University with research interests
which may result in the development of knowledge.
The Center will be equipped
to conduct interviews encompassing a wide area, either with a
cross section of the population
(as in typical public opinion
polls) or with specialized populations designed specifically for
particular queries. It will also
have facilities for conferences
concerning research design and
for the processing and analysis
of data.

Aids research
The establishment of such a

center stems from the

survey re-

search which has become an integral part of scholarly investigation. Numerous scholars at this
University are involved in survey
research which encompasses the
interests that could be expedited

by survey

methods.

Until now, whenever a researcher wanted to engage in a
community survey he was compelled to staff his own task force
and, upon completion of his investigations, liquidate the organization.
The practical disadvantages of
such a method are both economic
and academic, according to the
Faculty of Social Sciences and
Administration. From an economic standpoint, a “one-shot”
organization is costly and profuse. From an academic one, a
transient organization is totally
incapable of meeting the needs
of even routine instruction in
survey desigh, sampling, questionnaire construction, interviewing, coding and data analysis.

Avoids problems

A permanent survey organization, such as the Center, avoids
these problems. A regular staff

personnel can service research
needs competently and economically.

In addition to directing the
new Survey Center, he will be
an associate professor of Political Science. He is Currently a
member of the Executive Council
of the Inter-University Consortium for Political Research and
a member of the Program Committee of the Council of Social
Science Data Archives.
Dr. Leege will assume his position as director of the Center
about July 15.

A Colloquium, sponsored by the
Faculty of Social Sciences and
Administration, will be held Friday at which Dr. Leege will speak
on “Techniques of Large Scale
Social Research Organizations.”

widow. He had defied seven court orders
to appear in connection with the case.
Powell was re-elected last April 11 to
the House seat from which he was excluded. He never appeared to claim the seat.
Powell is reportedly roping to win his
seat back through the courts, where his
action is still pending, and retain the seniority of his 22 years in the House.

day, Sen. Eugene McCarthy (at left,

Powell, living on the Bahama Isle of

Senate ethics code passed
For the first time,
WASHINGTON
U. S. senators are being subject to a code
spelling out unethical campaign fund practices and requiring public disclosure of
the source and us of private contributions.
After a week of agonizing over a twoyear study of needed reforms, the Senate
voted 67 to 1 to adopt the Code of Ethics,
Sen. George D. Aiken (R., Vt.) cast the
lone dissenting vote as a matter of principle, caying: “We are bringing a fraud
on the public by making it appear we’re
trying to purify ourselves when we are
only making it worse.”
The code was drafted by the Sepate
Ethics Committee, formed after the Bobby Baker scandal that came to light in
late 1963, and was carried to the floor
after the Senate censured Sen. Thomas
J. Dodd (D„ Conn.) for financial miscon—

duct.

Dodd proposal

rejected, 65 to 5.
“I don’t know whether it’s very important to me now, but you ought to be
protected,” Dodd said before the vote.
The Senate refused to heed Dodd's emotional plea, and an expected attempt bySen. Joseph Clark (D., Pa.) to strengthen
provisions for public disclosure of senators’ finances failed to materialize.

Show income

As finally approved, the Ethics Code
would require that senators, senatorial
candidates and Senate aides earning more
than $15,000 a year file in a sealed envelope with the comptroller general a
copy of their federal tax returns, showing
all income.

Shortly before the final vote, the Senate
overwhelmingly defeated a proposed
amendment by Dodd dealing with use of
proceeds from fund-raising affairs, the
very issue that got

Dodd suggested permitting senators to
pay off old political campaign debts with
such funds, but establishing elabtorate
safeguards to prohibit their use for nonpolitical purposes. His amendment was

him into trouble.

This information concerning any senator would be available only to the Ethics
Committee on a majority votes of its members, but could be made public during the
course of any committee hearings.

U. S, and allied forces in Vietnam, came
as no surprise to Pentagon insiders.
For more than a year top officials and
observers have looked for Westmoreland
to return to take over one of the several
top military jobs becoming vacant this
summer.

The exact timing, however, was a closely held secret until President Johnson announced it at a news conference late last
week. There was no intimation in Johnson’s announcement that Westmoreland
was being reassigned because of any dissatisfaction with his performance.

Although the general has come under

confidence in him.

An extensive search and destroy mission, the largest of the war, is going on
under Westmoreland’s personal direction

in an area near Saigon.
At one point in recent weeks, Johnson
said if he himself had to follow someone
into combat, he would pick Westmoreland.
reJohnson said that
assignment foreshadowed no particular
change in Vietnam strategy, and that no
decisions have been made on troop buildups or other matters concerned with the
war. He said war policy was still under

intensive review.
Johnson said Westmoreland, after confirmation of the Senate, will replace Gen.
July
Harold K. Johnson when he retires
2 as Army Chief of Staff.
Pentagon observers assumed Westmoreland has long wanted the post of
Army Chief of Staff, which becomes vacant every two years. The post could be
a stepping-stone to that of Chairman of
the Joint Chiefs.

Hussein blasts Israeli raids
JORDAN—King Hussein of Jordan said
that Arab commandos will increase their
attacks inside Israel until there is a just
and lasting peace. Israel reported a new
raid late last week near the Dead Sea,
and said Jordan was supporting the attacks.
In the attack Israel said A1 Fatah commandos struck near the Gesher settlements nine miles south of the Dead Sea
and that Israel drove them off without
casualties. It said the Jordanian army
covered their activities with mortar fire.
Hussein, speaking at a news conference
at his royal palace in Amman, said Israel’s 15,000-man attack, also last week,
with troops, armor and jets had "furiously jeopardized” chances for achieving
peace, and he said the raid had failed.

"A little cocky"

He said the Jordanians repulsed
Israelis were “just a little cocky and sure

Riot Re,

Patton and Schwartz
clash over revolution

If

by Jay Schreiber
Spectrum

Staff Reporter

An analysis of the President’s Riot Commission Report
erupted into angry words late Tuesday afternoon in the
Fillmore Room.
Black and white militants, led by panelist Gwen Patton,
had denounced the U.S. social system at one event on the
first day of the ‘Strike for Knowledge.’ Some militants advocated a revolution to destroy the system and its “oppression
of the Negro people.”
v
Their charges provoked
panelist Herman Schwartz,
a member of the Law School
faculty. He also served on the
President’s Riot Commission,
where recently released report has attracted attention
for putting the blame on
white racism for race problems.
Visibly angry, Mr. Schwartz
said: “There is a real powerful
political force now working for
the Negro. Carl Stokes of Cleveland is an example. We’re really
at the beginning of what may be
a significant transformation.”

is simply not geared for oppressed people.”
A New York City school teacher
and member of both SNCC and
CORE, Miss Patton charged that
the Negroes could not become an
effective political bloc.
“Ethnic politics goes out the
window once racism is interjected
into the system.” She said that

all the white votes are combined
into one powerful anti-Negro

Three plans

Hershey eyeing undergraduates
—

Gen. Hershey said if a decision is made to enlarge the
war, the President will have
to decide whether to call up
the reserves or to enlarge the
draft calls. If the reserves are
not called up, Gen. Hershey
said, “we would have to contrive some way” to draft undergraduates in order to
meet the increased draft
calls.
Recent press reports have indicated the Administration is considering a major new escalation
of the Vietnam war .The Washington Post reported that one recommendation before the President calls for 206,000 additional
troops in Vietnam. The current
authorized number of troops for
the war is 525,000. The White
House has said that no decision
to enlarge the war has been made.

Depend on tinning
Gen. Hershey’s remarks about
drafting undergraduates were
made during a question-and-answer session following a speech

to the National Press
Club. He said the number of
students drafted “would depend
up on whether they’re going to
send them this year, next year,
or some other time. And the
quicker they’d have to send them,
the larger the calls would have
to be.”
he delivered

President Johnson is authorized

by law to declare “that we’ve got
to have some of those boys that
are candidates for baccalaureates,” Hershey said. He emphasized the Selective Service System presently has no plans to
determine which undergraduates

would be drafted.
“We’ve abolished this old-fashioned idea of thinking that people
who pass high examinations know
any more than people who can’t
pass them at all,” Gen. Hershey
said, referring to the new draft
law which defers all undergraduates doing satisfactory work.
Previously, local draft boards
could examine students’ college
grades and their scores on a special examination in deciding
which ones to defer.

Would train all

somebody to

At one point in a discussion
about training young people for
the military, Gen. Hershey said:
“I wish we could take everybody,
but I haven’t much hope that
we’ll ever sell Congress that we’ll
train people when we don’t know
what we’re training them for.”

Gen. Hershey also said he does
not think President Johnson’s decision to end deferments for some
graduate students will have a
drastic effect on graduate schools.
“I have heard these cries of ‘wolf
many times,” he said. “I have a
firm faith that the graduate
schools are going to live.”

Asked if a declaration of war
by Congress would make his job
easier, Gen. Hershey replied:
“Pm not so sure in the future
we’re going to declare any war.
We’ve been able to be flexible
enough to kill people very handily without war. We don’t even
have to have enemies; we kill
our friends when we run out of

kill."

The Selective Service director
said he has “every sympathy
with the president of an institution that has gone into the graduate school business in order to
get cheap teachers or some other
reason, and therefore doesn’t like
to have this come along and take
away his graduate students.”

Kennedy drive started
A drive for volunteers for Sen.
Robert F. Kennedy has been initiated on this campus under the
direction of the senator’s New
York office. Two Law School students, Nick Sargent and Paul
Friedman, are coordinating the
organization’s efforts.
In an interview with Mr. Sargent and Mr. Friedman, they

him among students at the State
University of Buffalo. We welcome any future commitments

A third plan is essentially a
combination of the first or second, plus a summer program in
field work. During the summer
program, a dialogue would be
required between students and
faculty members. The end result
would be a major paper based
upon the student’s area of interest, drawn from his experience.

The proposal sets forth no particular course offerings, but includes, as reference, listings from
the “Appalachian Studies” program at Ohio University.
The Ohio program includes such
courses as “Introduction to Community Organization” through the
Social Welfare Department; “Historical survey of the geographical area,” History Department;
“Economics of poverty and current problems of regional development,” Economics Department,
and studies of government, religion, housing, health and legal
services.
The Urban Affairs proposal also
suggests courses in literature, art
and muic under the Faculty of
Arts and Letters.
Field work would be modeled
upon the City Course of the Uni-

versity of Michigan.

“Educational gains for the student must rest upon the student’s
own scholarly and field activities,
upon the interdisciplinary seminars and faculty supervision, and
upon the good will, cooperation,
and informal teaching activities
of the residents of the city itself,” the proposal says.

In June 1968, the Government will say to graduating seniors and first-year grad students:
“You are now 1A, you must serve
in the armed forces.” In doing
so, the government has defied
the entire educational community, which urged a continuation

2. If your local board rejects

they may not grant.

appeal to your state board, first
meeting with the Government
Appeals Agent, who will explain
your appeal rights, then appeal
in writing.
4. If you lost at the state board
level, and if there are any dissenting votes, you can appeal to
the Presidential Board of Appeals.
If you lose a “2S” on appeal
you can reapply for a “2A”, or
occupational deferment, on the
grounds that your research in
graduate school is in the nation-

al interest.

JERUSALEM—Israeli troops and tanks smashed into Jordan and
clashed with Jordanian forces early yesterday in reprisal for Arab
sabotage attacks, a government communique said.
It said the Israeli forces drove at “saboteurs concentrations”
clustered near the Jordan-Israel ceasefire line reached in the June
5-10 Middle East war.
At Amman, a Jordanian communique broadcast by Amman Radio
said Jordanian forces were fighting back. The broadcast said four
Israeli tanks and several halftrack vehicles had been destroyed. It
also said helicopters were supporting the Israeli attack.
ALBANY—An “open campus” recruitment policy will be the rule
at State University installations no matter how much students protest,
Samuel B. Gould, chancellor of the university, said Wednesday.
Any change in the policy allowing open recruitment by organizations ranging from the military to the Dow Chemical Co. would come
only if the safety of individuals were menaced, Gould said.
By the same token, he said, the right of students to protest recruitment in connection with the Vietnam war will continue.
SAIGON—President Nguyen Van Thieu announced South Vietnam
will draft 135,000 men by the end of the year, necessitating the induction of 18-year-olds previously exempted.

to design, develop new courses

A creative experiment in curriculum-planning will soon begin.
Students and faculty will have
the “unique opportunity” to initiate courses they feel are "important and relevant to their
learning interests.”
The pilot project was designed
by Student Association President
Stewart Edelstein and Nancy
Coleman, presidential aide.

A bulletin board will be centrally located in Norton Hall.
Any student and faculty member can post a name and description of a course which is not
presently being taught.
With “an enrollment” of only
10 to 20 students and a faculty
member or teaching assistant, the
class will meet this semester to
plan their curriculum for the
fall semester 1968. The semester’s work could include readings, field trips and other activities relevant to the course
topic.

to the College Curriculum Planning Committee before the end
of April. Such courses will have
to meet certain requirements as
to the frequency of meetings and

the number of credit hours re-

quested.

The credit will become part
of the student’s semester load.
A similar arrangement with the
departments will be made for
teaching credit for the faculty
member or teaching assistant.
Classes may also meet as noncredit seminars similar to Experimental College courses. For class
topics not having the sufficient
number of persons, arrangements
will be made for the interested
student to work independently
with a faculty advisor on research projects.

The Bulletin Board proposal
has been endorsed by University
College and the Council of Provosts and University-Wide Deans.
Mr. Edelstein would like to see
it become a permanent part of
the academic institution for “students and faculty to directly affect and influence their academic
experiences at the University.”

The simple goal: Honesty
Students, more than any other class of individuals, talk
about morals, ethics and honesty. Students are tired of
listening to crooked politicians and self-interested businessmen; they generally abhor the rabble that rises from a

These same students, however, are products of that
society, and for all their questings, they have done so little
to make themselves different.
The university is a microcosm of a larger existence. Students rebel against a government that lies and misinforms,
and, at the same time, they cheat on exams or plagerize a
term paper. They call politicians opportunists, while, at the
same time, they seek a degree primarily because it means
more money for them when they get out.
Students espouse “love not war,” but they have no love
for those who disagree with them. They condemn their
parents because parents are narrow-minded, but they are
so much like their parents.
The motivating force for so much of what the student
does is self-interest. In this sense, there is little that differentiates the student from any other person.
But, given all these similarities, there is one over-riding
factor which sets the student apart: He knows something is
wrong. He knows something is wrong with his world and
his role in it. He knows it, but he lives it just the same.
At least this is an indication that there is a chance for
a more honest world—someday. As long as men are dishonest, there will be war, prejudice, poverty and civil unrest.
To seek the elimination of all these in a lifetime is, perhaps,
too idealistic, just as it is too idealistic to believe that the
student is more honest than his fellow man.
Let us hope, at least, that the student will be continually
hunted by an ideal life, because within him there is a
possibility of it.

Strike is over; war goes on
This week’s Strike for Knowledge—Stop the War program effectively pre-empted the routine activities at this
University.

Discussion reigned supreme as countless classes shifted
guns to talk about the war, and panel after panel probed
the American involvement in South East Asia—the powergrabbing kind of involvement that has cost so many lives,
and wasted the resources of rich and poor alike. Most of
the focus was on the history of the United States-Vietnamese
relationship and how that history has been distorted.
The Strike for Knowledge was a worthwhile program, but
we fear that many will forget its message too soon.
For three days hundreds of students participated, directly or indirectly, in a protest of United States foreign policy. But now its over.
We’re afraid that about the only persons who will surely
remember these days are the maintenance men. (The litter
was terrific.)
The rest of us can go back to being ordinary students.
Teachers can go back to teaching the material they’re being
paid to cover. The University can now continue “business as
usual.”
The Strike for Knowledge is over. But the war goes on.
Let’s hope many have learned something these three days,
and that some at least will continue the protest.
If even that much is accomplished, then the Strike for
Knowledge is a success.

Spring Festival—period
It’s a good thing we had some spring, for the Spring
Arts Festival—at least we can say the week was 50% successful. If anything was sorely missed during the Festival,
it was art.
It is difficult to believe that a committee, which repeatedly claims to have worked very hard, could come up with
nothing better than mediocre exhibits and performers who
failed to do any worthwhile performing.
There is little doubt that this year’s Festival was a tremendous come-down from Festivals of previous years. Supposedly taking a “comprehensive look at the use of contemporary media,” the Festival has been hard-put to take a
comprehensive look at anything.
The Festival continues through Sunday, but there is little
indication that the remainder of the program can redeem
a shallow week. Let’s hope the weather remains fair and
sunny. It has been, by far, the most enjoyable part of the
Spring Arts Festival.

The nearly 1000 students who attended Wednesday’s forum, “The Draft and Its Alternatives,”
were given a poignant reminder that university
students and ghetto blacks are not the only niggers
of the Great Society, and above all, that there is
indeed hope for a qualitative change of attitude,
especially among the youth, in this country.
A former Bryant and Stratton busines student,

earlier in the day, told of his experiences in turning
in his draft card last October and refusing induction
into the armed forces last February.
Gordon Rhodes, who left Bryant and Stratton because the business world “had no ethics. is at first

Mr. Rhodes told a remarkable tale of how he—the son of a truckdriver—from a small town in
northern Niagara County, came to exemplify quite
unconsciously and modestly the epitome of what it
means to be a responsible citizen in a political de”

mocracy.

And he put us all to shame.
Intellectual snobbery il a prevailing tendency in
the university community, and Mr. Rhodes made it
clear to cynics and campus activists alike that all
too often there is a forgotten, but important segment of this society that is not automatically lost
to the whim of the authoritarian machine, merely
because it represents a less educated minority.
Far too often the cynic claims that all is lost because people fail to become aware of the realities
of their oppressed condition; there is no hope for
democracy because people want to be ruled, people
don’t want to think.
Campus activists have a tendency to concentrate
ail too often on two things: The black community,
and the university community—as both the most
oppressed segment of society, and, following from
that, the ones most ripe for the development of a
revolutionary consciousness.
That is where talk of “guerrilla warfare” comes
in.

It is a result of a lack of realization—or at least
the need to explore the possibility—that perhaps
the real reason this country is so immune to democratic social change is because of communication; People simply don’t know where anything is
at—they live in their dream world existence of
suburbia not by choice, but because to them it is
the real world.
It is easy to charge co-option with the system, or
call for an extereme radicalization of tactics (i.e.,
violence) because of a lack of genuine faith in the
human psyche—not the American psyche, but the
human psyche—to respond positively to situations.
Because of the communication vacuum where most
of us live our lives, we are not given a chance to
respond as humans, we are channeled into being
breathing automatons.

The draft resistance of Mr. Rhodes is a dramatic
example of the innate infallibility of the ‘subtle’
systems of oppression that have been developed
in this country. There is hope for the country.
If consciousness can awaken on an individual
level, it can awaken on a collective level. What is
needed is a stimulus.
Mr, Rhodes noted that since he refused induction, people in his hometown have gradually begun
to question the War, and more importanly the system that has somehow forced this clean-cut ‘average’ product of their. community, to face a jail
term on the basis of his own democratic conscience.

LBJ planning 'force' election?
To the Editor:

While most observers describe the results from

the recent appearance of Sec. of State Rusk before
the Senate Foreign Relations Committee as a “stalemate” since neither hawks nor doves could claim
victory, a more accurate assessment reveals the
launching of an offensive move by the Johnson
Administration. Sec. Rusk promised the Nation a

sustained military expansion of the Vietnam War.
This means, then, the casualties will go well beyond the present pace of 2000 American deaths
per month.
But while the Nation debates the merit of an
American takeover in Vietnam regardless of the
costs, little attention Is being given to the possibility of President Johnson taking over the Nation.
The President shows increasing contempt for congressional and Constitutional restraints, insisting
he alone will do what he wishes in conducting his
war upon Vietnam. Now that the Bay of Tonkin
Resolution has been revealed as a lie to the American people, President Johnson may very well be
preparing an equal lie to the Nation to justify his
assuming complete military control over America
just as he has attempted a military takeover of
Vietnam.
It seems plausible to suggest the distinct possibility that just as the President is responding to
his defeats abroad by expanding his military war
in Vietnam, he will be strongly tempted to respond
to his political defeats at home by a military takeover of the Nation. Could it be possible that Lyndon Johnson now plans to forego a “normal” November election in order to remain in office
through force rather than by the choice of the
American people?

Sidney M. Willhelm

Wants dorm privacy respected

By Interlandi

BELOW OLYMPUS

To the Editor:
When we first heard of the ‘Strike for Knowledge,’ we felt that it would be a good educational
experience for the students of this campus. The
intelligent discussion of vital contemporary issues
is a basic tenet of our educational system. However,
while eating lunch in the Tower Cafeteria March
19, we were exposed to a display by a group of
so-called students which can be termed at best as
raw emotionalism contributing nothing to the interchange of ideas.
As resident students, the dormitory is our home
away from home. We therefore feel that we should
be allowed the same courtesies in the dormitory
that we are allowed in our own homes. Consequently, we feel that this invasion of the Tower Cafeteria was an invasion of what might be referred to
as our “dining room.” We are not trying to say
that these people should not be allowed to express
their views; we are merely saying that they should
have the courtesy and intelligence to use discretion
before invading the privacy of others.
Too many people have the' notion that the
residence halls are just some buildings on campus
and that they should have the run of them. We
feel that it is time that these people were reminded
that the residence halls are exactly what the name
implies, that is, places to live for many students
during the academic year. We only ask that we be
allowed the privileges that any person is allowed
in his own home.

I have been informed by letter that some dim
and befuddled soul managed to read last week’s
le German restaurant
column abou
service because of my over-hairy appearance and
see it as being anti-German. This is an idiotic interif any
pretation, as I would hope most of you
who read this with regularity should know.
What I apparently failed to communicate last
week was the irony that this type of incident should
occur in a situation where either this individual
who may even not have been German or the owner, should have been able to see the danger involved
in any type of behavior which restricts and constrains another’s behavior to some sort of group
norm or standard as flimsily based as the present
prejudice against beards and hair in general seems
to be.
I mean I have this funny feeling that any night
now various and sundry patriotic groups are going
to fan out across the land and stealthily defuzz all
statues of such notorious beard-wearers as Lincoln,
Grant, Lee, and all the rest of the historic figures
you can think of. I will tread lightly around the

and I have been forcibly culterized into
totalitarian offender. As I said, I don’t wish to call
the gentlemen who bounced me, correction, threatened to bounce me next time, a Fascist. In his own
system he was probably trying to help me, not hurt
me. He wants, as so many people seem to, me to
grow up and become a man and take my rightful
place in this society. Which I can only do by agreeinig to behave and regulate my appearance within
certain rather rigid limits.
This is a form of Fascism I suppose, the desire
to stamp out the different, the upsetting, the
troublesome reminders that there are ways of life
other than your own. Couple I knew moved recently because of difficulty with the landlord.,
Seems he wasn’t sure they were married in the
first place, and that secondaly anyone female
who stayed overnight was there only to participate
in an orgy.
Did he throw them out because he disapproved
of their behavior? No, I would be more inclined to
think, after hearing him bellowing about downstairs, that he threw them out because he wasn’t
getting in on the fun. That it existed only in his
own mind is beside the point. The point is that
being different in appearance seems to give most
people a target at which to project all the crappy
images and desires that this frustrating and dehumanizing society causes to ferment and grow in
perhaps I should
an amazing number of heads
say minds.
The culture is filled with these folk myths now,
it probably always has been. Long-haired girls are
promiscuous, everybody with beards smokes marijuana, etc., etc., etc. This culture is stupid in many
ways, but it is not alone. Stupidity and fear seem,
after all, to be relatively permanent components of
the human race. Ignoring skin, religion, and virtually all other variables that one could use, is
using, and has used, allow me to promulgate
Steese’s First Law Concerning the Distribution of
People In Any Given Population: The good ones
are good, the bad ones are bad, and almost everybody fits somewhere in between.
If anyone is daft enough to think I am going
to waste my time in hating anyone on the basis
of artificial barriers such as religion or nationality
I can only sympathize with them, for I assume they
do find it necessary to use these labels.
The number of people that I am personally able
to get along with on my sort of extended basis is
so low that I simply can not afford to start making
arbitrary cuts on the basis of artificial nomenclatures. That I tend to include nationalism under
the head of artificial is an indication of my political bias. Or perhaps an ideological bias, tending
to be apolitical. The “Any Given Population” referred to in the above law refers to any country,
or any race, or any continent, or the whole, silly,
screwed-up, confused ball of wax.
I discussed at some length a while back what
I saw as being the more obvious stupidities involved in telling me, or anyone else, that they owe
anything to their country per se. The major point
was this; being different in any way and having
to grow up in this culture at this time one earns
his citizenship. Someplace along the line I stopped

'Scale' not quite accurate
To the Editor:

This is not meant to denigrate the monumental
amount of work that went into the Student Course
and Teacher Evaluation; you should still buy yourself a copy. But in fairness to those who read it
summarily, the following point should be made.
Percentages, as we all know, can be misleading;
but so can the “representative” comments. If, as in
the case with many large lectures, only 50 out of
160 people go to the lecture, it doesn’t take a
mathematical genius to figure out they probably
like it more than many who aren’t attending. So
what happens is that you have representative comments of a truncated survey group; divergent comments of people who did not like the course and
did not go, but who did take the time to write out
an evaluation on their own time are hence in the
minority, hence not ‘representative’
hence not included in the listings in the book. This built-in bias
is unfortunate
there is more to the conclusions
than meets the eye in black and white, and this
should be kept in mind.

Amazed at

sex misconceptions

To the Editor:
I was astonished by the misconceptions which
the students at this University display with regard
to premarital sex. Factors which were overlooked
during the forum of March 11, included the fact
that, exclusive of heart disease and cancer, venereal disease is one of the major health problems
of our country. Also conveniently overlooked was
the fact that syphilis causes blindness, mental retardation, and several other defects in the progeny
of those afflicted for up to six generations; and
there is no known cure for this desease.

With regard to lasting human relationships,
of every three marriages ends in divorce. One
out of every eight children has only one parent as
a result of divorce or
illegitimate birth, and one
of every fifteen children
has no parents and is
forced to live on funds from
the state.
Also, contraceptives are not infallible. Last year
approximately 500,000 illegitimate births
occurred
in this country alone.

Linda Laufer

Today I went on my first journey to a different era and
country (a sneaky device my creator can use because I’m a
spirit as well as a knight). I didn’t really want to go, but
she insisted, so . . .
Arriving in this strange place, I gave my usual greeting,
“Hi ho. ‘Tis I.” However, no one answered my call and I
decided to ask a bearded gentleman wearing a plumed hat
where I was.
“Sir, could you tell me in what
land I have arrived?”
“Prithee, do you mind not interrupting,” he replied. “I’m addressing a meeting of groundhogs and squirrels on the virtues
of being a burgher and a SAP.”
Realizing I would receive no
help from him, I ventured into
a building—a castle owned by
someone called Norton Hail. Before I could greet anyone, I spied
a group of odd-looking creatures
with smoke pouring from their
mouths. I had never seen any
humans such as this, so I deduced
they must be a new type of dragon. Fearing they would harm
someone, I charged into their
midst, swinging my sword . . .
When I awoke, I was in a
small room with soft padded
walls. My arms were pinned down
and I struggled to free them
from the white jacket.
Then a voice said, “I see you’re
conscious. Perhaps now we can
discuss your problem. How long
have you hated your mother?”
“What?”
“It’s quite obvious from your
aggressive behavior that you
deeply resent someone, quite obviously your mother who suppressed you. Tell me about her.”
I thought I’d better humor him

and answered, “Before meeting
my father, she was a princess
who moonlighted as a maiden in
distress.”
Interrupting, he said, “Your
problem seems to be much deeper than I originally believed. You
have visions of being a medieval
knight. I should have guessed it
by your unusual apparel. You’re
protesting the draft, right? This
is your way of saying you won’t
go.”
“Won’t go where?” I innocently asked.
He then started talking about
some place called Vietnam where
people are fighting about who
owns which rice paddy. Then he
said something about Hawks and
Doves having a fight in a Birdcage. All this reminded me of
home. Believing he was the country’s storyteller, I thought he
might like to hear some of my
experiences. I told him about
Mistyview Castle, the election,
and the subsequent rioting.
I noticed that while I was recounting my adventures, he kept
mumbling something about a
strange case and wrote down everything I said. Finally, he rose
to leave and remarked, “You’re
quite an unusual fellow—different from Napolean and Lincoln
for a change. Very refreshing.”

WASHINGTON—President Johnson, stepping up his attack on
critics of his Vietnam policy with a plea to stand fast in Vietnam:
“Let no American mistake the enemy’stmajor offensive now. It
is aimed squarely at the citizens of America. It is an assault designed
to crack America’s will.”
NEW YORK—Mayor John V. Lindsay when asked by a student
whether he could support Richard Nixon, the leading Republican
presidential candidate:
“There is a very simple answer to that. Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller will run and win.”
WASHINGTON—Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy, D-Minn., in answer
to a question of whether he would support Sen. Robert F. Kennedy,
D-N.Y., if the first ballot of the Democratic National Convention
shows he cannot himself'defeat President Johnson:
“I think there is' no question that I would have to support Sen.

Mr. Schoenman praised the

“heroism unparalled in history”
and advocated the “justifiable defeat” of American “oppression”

'Ideological motivations'
Marvin Gettleman, editor of
The Vietnam Reader, a documentary study of the conflict,
described United States “imperialism” as part of a world wide
revolution. Our involvement in
Southeast Asia is, he said, “motivated primarily by ideological
motivations” and is “based profoundly on American liberal values.”

We are opearting on the notion

that the “yellow dwarfs” of Asia
(citing a term allegedly used by
Lyndon Johnson in a 1948 Senate
speech) are incapable of generating revolutionary movements
without the support of Moscow or
China, but their capability has
been proven in Vietnam, he
claimed.

Mr. Gettleman concluded with
the observation that the root of
the revolutionary conflict sweeping the globe is our supposition
that the “white man’s way to economic stability is the only way
and we must supply it.”

Having done this it is my peculiar feeling that I have the right

Does this mean that I want this
country to stop being an international power? Do I particularly
want to stop breathing? No,
thank you kindly. But what you
are telling me is that there is
only one way to be an international power and that is to
fight, and fight, and fight, and
fight. Is it true then that the
only way this country can be
important internationally is to
build a stockpile of military issue caskets wherever something
occurs with which we do not

agree?

Bullshit.
For openers try considering us
as part of the planet for a change.
The strongest and richest member of the family, remember?
Would it cost any less to turn
all those farmers who have been
controlled and soil banked to the
nth degree loose, and ship the
food around the world to those
who need it than it does to run

the Vietnam war? Would it hurt
if Detroit came up with 8.5 million cars and .5 million cheap
tractors to he sent around the
world every yeat? I know, politically and economically naive
—

right?

And the Vietnam war is a safe,
sane, conservative, historically
precedented way of doing the job

in international relations, which
will probably be adapted for use
in certain large domestic urban
areas this summer.
I suppose it is greedy, but it
would be very nice to be an
American again, and be able to
have an unfashionable and justified pride in a country that is
able to help as well as destroy.

A wish that seems to recede
further every year in some ways
it is true, but being an outsider
in this culture teaches one how
to hope if nothing else. But even
forced optimism gets a little
dry sometimes, especially in the
face of insanity. And as foi 1 this
country’s stupidity, may I close
by suggesting that there seems
to be a most interesting possible
correlation between those who
feel that the Negroes should be
strongly condemned for any use
of violence to get what they
want, and those who feel most
strongly that the only right and
honorable thing for the United
States to do is stay in the war
until the last Vietnamese is dead.
People as groups I can’t dislike, there are certain leaders in
this country at this time that I
can come quite close to hating

though.

MONEY: THE STORY OF AN ENGINEER
We all know,, of course, that in this age of technology
engineering senior is receiving fabulous offers of
employment, but do we realize just how fabulous these
offers are? Do we comprehend just how keenly industry
is competing? To illustrate, let me cite the true and typical case of E. Pluribus Ewbank, a true and typical senior.
One day last week while strolling across the M.I.X
campus, E. Pluribus was hailed by a portly and prosperous man who sat in a yellow convertible studded with
precious gem stones. “Hello,” said the portly and prosperous man, “I am Portly Prosperous, president of
American Xerographic Data Processing and Birth Control, Incorporated. Are you a senior?”
“Yes, sir,” said E. Pluribus.
“Do you like this car?” said Portly.
“Yes, sir,” said E. Pluribus.
“It’s yours,” said Portly.
“Thanks, hey,” said E. Pluribus.
“Do you like Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades?”
said Portly.
“What clean living, clean shaven American does not?”
said E. Pluribus.
“Here is a pack,” said Portly. “And a new pack will
be delivered to you every twelve minutes as long as you
live.”
“Thanks, hey,” said E. Pluribus.
“Would your wife like a mink coat?” said Portly.
“I feel sure she would,” said E. Pluribus, “but I am
not married.”
“Do you want to be ?” said Portly.
“What clean living, clean shaven American does not?”
said E. Pluribus.
Portly pressed a button on the dashboard of the convertible and the trunk opened up and out came a nubile
maiden with golden hair, rosy knees, a perfect disposition, and the appendix already removed. “This is Svetlana O’Toole,” said Portly. “Would you like to marry her?”
“Is her appendix out ?” said E. Pluribus.
“Yes,” said Portly.
“Okay, hey,” said E. Pluribus.
"Congratulations,” said Portly. “And for the happy
bride, a set of 300 monogrammed prawn forks.”

CHOICE
ROAST BEEF

Do you often think it impossible to untangle the State University of Buffalo
bureaucracy? In cooperation with the Dean of Students 1 Office. The Spectrum is
sponsoring an ACTION LINE. Through ACTION LINE, individual students can get
an answer to a puzzling question, find out where and why .University decisions
are made, and get ACTION when change is indicated.

ACTION LINE will answer all questions of general interest which appear to
be pertinent to the student body. The Spectrum will include them in its special
ACTION LINE weekly column. Each inquiry will be thoroughly investigated and
answered individually. The name of the individual originating the inquiry will
not be published.

Q. Will there be any action taken at a result of the findings of
the Teacher Evaluation Questionnaire?
A. Mr. Stewart Edelstein, president of the Student Senate, stated
that the purpose of the Teacher Evaluation Questionnaire was to
effect change in both curriculum and faculty where the need was
seen to exist. From this point on, now that the findings are available,
further action will be dependent upon the interest, participation,
and push of students, faculty, and individual departments to make
whatever changes are recommended.
Q. Who services the Postal Pagoda? Stamps are not always available and even after a complaint is phoned in, the supply is not
replenished for a while. The instructions on how to operate the
change machine are not explicit. Could they be clarified? Also, why
no 6 cents stamps? And, who chose that particular location for the

A. The Pagoda was built and is being serviced wholly by the
U.S. Post Office Department, and the building and equipment belong
to them. The University supplies only the power to operate the
installation. The site selection was made after an exhaustive study,
by both University and postal personnel, of a/ variety of locations and
chosen because it was considered the most convenient access for the
total academic community.
Mr. James Braun, director of the Campus Mail Department, is
our liason with the postal authorities and has already notified them
of our complaints and suggestions. He explained, however, that
servicing” the Pagoda and mail pick-up are handled by different
postal departments. This is one of the reasons immediate adjustments
and service to the Pagoda are not made even though mail routeman
are seen at the Pagoda shortly after a complaint has been registered.
Q. Why mutt students supply their own equipment when using
the squash or handball courts during informal play time, i.e., exclusive of a formal physical education program?
A. Mr. E. Muto, instructor in Intramural Programs, informed us
that equipment frequently disappears, and it is too difficult to set
up a central system.
Q. I had two "incompletes" on my transcript last semester. I am
applying to graduate schools and the "incomplete" is equivalent to a
"D" credit. Is this fair?
A. Transcripts detail factual data of semester hours carried, hours
completed, and the grade earned at the end of the semester and an
“incomplete” reflects the exact nature of your earned status at the
time grade cards were completed. The only way to circumvent this,
in the event you have to submit transcripts by a certain date, is to
send a letter along with your application to the graduate school and
explain the circumstances under which you received the “incomplete”
grades and the date on which the corrected transcript will be forwarded. An alternative plan is to put a note on your formal request
for a transcript, indicating that the transcript should not be sent
until all grades are finalized:
Q. Why is it necessary for a student enrolled in the Arts and
Sciences program to graduate with 128 credits instead of 120 credits
which would be the usual college course load of taking five three
credit courses per semester?
A. Our requirement of 128 hours for the BA degree is a result
of historical circumstance and need to meet individual department’s
requirements. It should be pointed out that the requirement for the
BA degree in terms of hours varies dramatically across the country.
The minimum legal necessity for the degree granted by a college or
university in New York State, however, as set by the State Education
Department, is 120 hours.
You may be interested in knowing that University College is
currently examining the total structure of the undergraduate curriculum, and is giving particular attention to the possibility of a fourcourse normal load for undergraduates, under which courses Might
carry credits of four hours. Were this the case, a student would
graduate after completing four courses each semester for eight
semesters.
For specific answers to your questions and for direct service, call ACTION LINE,
If you prefer,
every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, from 4-5 p.m.
phrase your question in writing and address it to ACTION LINE, c/o The Spectrum,
355 Norton Hall, or the Office of the Dean of Students, 201 Harriman Library.

UCRA to evaluate strike/ plan future Council
“We are very pleased that the

turnout has been overwhelming

both in terms of number of persons attending and the thorough
interest displayed in all our pro-

grams.”

James Hansen, graduate philosophy student and member of
the University Community for
Rational
Alternatives steering
committee, Tuesday expressed the
reaction of the committee to the
success of the first day of activities.
“These last two weeks have

clearly demonstrated that a greatly increasing number are repulsed by the genocidal Vietnam war
and are prepared to engage in
serious activity to stop this war

and the social and economic system which has brought it about.”

Commenting on the proposed

future actions of the UCRA, Mr.
explained: “We will
spend the forthcoming days in
organizing all those who have
shown such great interest in order to develop future concrete
activities to contribute to, if not
lead, the growing anti-imperialist
sentiment in the U.S.”
Hansen

The mass meeting scheduled
for Thursday was described by
Mr. Hansen as a meeting “during
which the specifics of present and
future activities will be discussed.
It will be an evaluation, and out
of the evaluation will come a
program for the future. We will

learn both from our
and our mistakes.”

The

successes

discussions and
panels held during the “Strike

were better attended than the
committee had anticipated. “The

turned out to be an unforeseen
advantage, and benefit. Such vast

gives full support to

emergency

curfew resolution

by Peter Simon
Attitfahf City Editor

The Common Council Tuesday
passed unanimously a resolution
directing Corporation Counsel
Anthony Manguso to prepare a
law which would give the mayor
the power to put curfews into effect during emergencies.

Meanwhile, the Council sent
back to its Legislation Committee
the controversial bill which would
set a year-round curfew of 11
p.m. to 6 a.m. on all persons under 17.
Democratic Councilmen Stanley Makowski and Delmar Mitchell presented their emergency
curfew bill because of some confusion over whether the mayor
now has the power to impose
curfews d u ri n g emergencies.

While some councilmen felt that
he does have this power, Assistant Corporation Counsel Joseph
Casey said that he does not.
The final bill will probably
leave the age of persons affected
and the hours during which a
curfew can be imposed up to the
mayor.

Little opposition
Unlike the year-round curfew
proposal, the emergency measure
has run into little opposition and
is expected to be passed.
Mr. Manguso was directed by a
9-6 Council vote on March 5 to
draw up the year-round proposal.
He reluctantly did so, but said
that it was illegal.

Councilman William Lyman,
who has been pressing for a cur-

few for the past three years, and
who sponsored the bill, sensed
that even if the Council passed
the bill, the mayor would veto it.

The Council could then overveto with ten favorable
votes, but this is doubtful.

ride the

In other Council action, an 112 vote reqeusted the federal government to supply one teacher’s

aide for every ten students bused
from one neighborhood to a
school in another. At present, one
teacher’s aide is provided for
each bus-load of students. The
bill was sponsored by Councilman
Raymond Lewandowski.

Hot debate
The vote was preceded by a
heated debate over alledged “behavorial problems” at public
school 69, 1725 Clinton St., caused
by bused-in students. At Mr. Lewandowski’s request, a letter from
parents of school 69 students was
read. Its charges ranged from
“area students being beat-up by
busesd-in students’ to students
roaming the halls.

Mr. Lewandowski said that this
“chaos” is resulting in a worse
education for all students con-

cerned.

Councilman Mitchell said that
the charges had been “trumped
up.”
Councilman Makoski said that
the issue should be thoroughly
discused, and by a 14-0 vote the
Council ordered investigations
from its Legislation Committee
and Buffalo’s Human Relations
Committee.

Spring Art's the thing
by Jim Brennan
Spectrum

Staff

Reporter

John Chamberlain and his boobies did their thing
and it failed.
His troupe of environmental reactors, consisting of
Taylor Meade, Lilo, Lampman, and Ultra Violet, bombed out.
As one disappointed member of the audience commented:
“This whole evening was an U-U-Ultra-drag!”
fertility rite from the lost mountain passes of Yugoslavia.
In the course of his ritual he
stripped down to a brief pair of
blue jockey shorts. As he wrangled and gyrated, he cast a huge
shadow against the inside wall.
The shadow, thanks to the uniqueness of the lighting, magnified his every move.
One move, which prdduced the
greatest shock effect on viewers,
was a pulsating buldge of the erection his shadow was having.

The presentation—or whatever

you want to call their thing— opened with Taylor Meade. “It”
bills himself as “Queen of the

Underground,” and by his effeminate actions one would tend
to believe this appellation.
To begin his act, he read a list
of 20-odd things that he would
like to do. His list consisted of
such choice goodies as: Cutting
his toe nails, putting a curse on
Johnson, kissing a man, chewing
his jockey shorts, putting on a
“Clyde Suit” and singing “My

Bonnie Lies Under the Ocean,”

playing the harmonica, and wearing a wig and a dress.

Violet ideas
Ultra Violet, his cohort in
this exhibition, proceeded to
read a few of her sunny suggestions for the evening. She felt the
desire to kiss Taylor Meade’s
feet, to hibernate, to French kiss
a lion, to paint New York City
violet, and do a love scene on
the hearth before the blazing fire.
As these two figures carried on
a dialogue, they were bathed in
an aura of various luminous colors. The drapes on the front windows of Haas Lounge were open,
presenting the audience with a cobalt blue sky overhanging the
foggy cauldron of the fountain

As he reached the peak of his
sermon, with “sweet talkin’ baby

he cast what appeared to be a
prayer book into the blazing fire.

In the middle of the lounge
stood a ping-pong table with a
dormant body prostrated upon it.
At Lampman’s touch the body
sprung alive. It was Lilo’s time

to do her thing.
John Chambeflain invited all
with cameras to photograph Lilo.
So there she lay, a writhing sensuous figure of a woman, contorting her body into the erotic me-

chanics of her various poses for
the photographers.
As the cameramen got closer,
Lilo began to toy with them by
sticking out her tongue and
reaching out to grab them.
There was no formal ending to
this environmental display— it
just stopped.
They had done their thing and
it was time.
Not a good time, just a time,
to this viewer and many others
a wasted bit of time. But alas is

irofessor of Hisof Toronto, will demonstrate an
experimental application of his
theories on poetry this evening
in Haas Lounge.
“Theoretically there isn’t a distinction between the producer of
a work of art, an author, and the
consumer, the audience.”
Mr.
Xisto feels the division between
the author and the passive audience is outdated.

He insists there is not such a
thing as a passive consumer: “We
are always contributing and interfering in a work of art.”
A recent poem of his was writ-

ten as homage to two great
writers, two avant-gardists, the

French poet Arthur Rimbaud and
a Brazilian novelist.

This sub-division of the University Community

Members of the academic com-

munity are warned to be on the
lookout for a band of guerrillas.

The group began offensive operations Tuesday in conjunction
with the first day of the “Strike
for Knowledge.”

ances among unwary students in
various places on campus, including the Rathskeller and the
fountain area behind Norton Hall
were staged by the group, formally known as the Guerrilla Theater.

Eventually, the group “plans to
wail ROTC on a yet undetermined date.”

The group plans to extend the
parody effect.
Its purpose is not only to parody the military, but a parody
within is also evidenced by the
cliches which are tossed by both
sides in the Vietnam skit. In this
performance, a movie was being
shot on location in Vietnam to
show how peace, prosperity and

liberty were being brought to the
people with the hydrogen bomb.”
The characters are nameless, except for Charlie, who forgot to
feed the Cobras before they
feasted on another participant.

The Theater plans to continue
unscheduled performances on
campus as well as appearances in
the Buffalo community. They also
plan to participate in “Ten Days
to Shake the Empire,” a national
SDS strike similar to the “Strike

to, as these artists prophesized
and practiced, one must go back
to the basic elements of language,
the vowels, a,e,i,o,u. What Xisto
has created in his poem is a
mathematical analysis of vowel
groups that have more than 3000
combinations.
His reading will begin at 8

p.m.

Following Mr, Xisto, musician
Terry Riley will perform. Terry
Riley has been credited with
starting a whole new form of
jazz through the use of a pulse
rate to set up a rhythm for an
electric organ while weaving in
shifts of drone emphasis to produce new ranges of strobe patterns.

the world into interesting fragments. Then reassembles it. You

eyes and feel with new senses,
after being Experienced. Those
who’ve seen him perform know
only part of this Experience.
They rave about a young man
who can play the electric guitar
in more positions than believed
possible. Hendrix has been known
to play his guitar upside down,
behind his back, and between his
legs. He also can make a guitar
look like something he uses to
pick his teeth. Actually, he does
use his teeth, his tongue, feet,
and elbows to play his guitar.
It seems also that Hendrix has
borrowed a page from the book
used by “The Who,” another rock
group/ At one concert he covered
his guitar with a concealed can
of lighter fluid and then set it
ablaze.
The popularity which Hendrix
is now experiencing comes as a
results of his two albums. His
first “Are You Experienced,”
received little attention because
of its complete uniqueness. While
his other album “Axis: Bold as
Love,” has risen from 140 on
pop charts to 24 within the span
of a week and is still moving up
to the number one position.
Jimi Hendrix is backed by two
suberb young musical giants from
England. Mitch Mitchell is a
driving forceful drummer in the
tradition of Ginger Baker of the
“Cream” and Gene Krupa of the
Jazz Era. Noel Redding, who began his musical journey as a
sedate violinist, has been the

Backing-up Hansen behind the

If Dean, a fine defensive backstop, can swing the bat, he could
see plenty of action this season.

The outfield is another bright
spot for the ’68 Diamondmen. Ken
Rutkowski, Rick Wells, and Ken
Razka give the Bulls three solid
performers to fill the three outfield slots.
Rutkowski last season connected for a big .380, socked three
home runs, and stole nine bases
in ten attempts. Wells, who has
also won varsity letters in football and basketball, clubbed a
healthy .389 last season, and gave
the Bulls a tremendous defensive pickup in left field.

newcomers to the varsity may
solve the Bulls’ infield problems.

Bulls received a severe jolt along
the tournament trail placing no
better than a lackluster sixth in
a field of 12 in Saturday’s North
Atlantic Intercollegiate Fencing
Championships held at Rochester.
The event was won by Newark
College of Engineering who won
44 out of 66 bouts followed by
Pace College with 41. Syracuse
placed third with 38 bouts.
During the early stages of the
tournament, the BqUs stayed

evenly as the Bulls won 34 bouts
while dropping 32. Steve Morris,
Bruce Renner, George Wirth,

with Jon Rand and Pierre Chanteau each taking five.
Quizzed about the unimpressive
showing by his squad, head coach
Sid Schwartz commented: “I’m
very disappointed. We sent six
solid men to this tournament and
should’ve been right near the
top. We lost 18 bouts by 5-4
scores, and there’s no excuse for
that. The competition at the
NCAA Championships will be

much tougher and we’ll have to
fence much better if we want to
avoid really getting clobbered.”
Coach Schwartz and his three

Assistant varsity coach Bill

looks in very good shape.
“There is only one problem for

They must gain confidence under

this Buffalo team will go.”

In recent years, the fraternity
and sorority systems on this campus have come under scrutiny by
the University administration in
Albany.

Many charges have been made
by the administration, but the
most prominent are discrimination and the non-activity of
Greeks in campus activities.
Greeks counter-charge however,
there has never been any concrete evidence presented that an
organization denied membership
to a student because of color or
religion.
The charge that Greeks are apathetic is easily denied, for there
are Greeks holding position in
almost every facet of campus life,

they claim.

The entire Buffalonian staff includes members of various fraternities and sororities.
Steve Ray, a member of Sigma

Phi Epsilon, is treasurer of the
Commuter Council and a representative of University Union Activities Board. Greg Ulrich of

deGaulle ‘dooms’ dollar pound
,

PARIS
President Charles de Gaulle
said that efforts to safeguard the U.S.
dollar and British pound as the world’s
key currencies were doomed. He demanded they be replaced by a full gold standard as the cornerstone of world trade.
De Gaulle, in one of his strongest warnings yet, said a continued monetary
system based on the American and British
currencies would plunge the world into
a grave economic crisis.
Despite the French leader’s statement,
the dollar and pound surged to new
strength on European markets and the
price of gold continued to drop in free
market trading.
But financial experts voiced fears it
might touch off a new stampede to ui
load dollars and pounds and grab up
gold in markets still jittery after last
week’s international gold and dollar

crisis.

Creates furor
De Gaulle’s new attack created a furor

in London where the labor government

had just introduced

a severe austerity
budget, putting about 10 per cent more
in taxes on Britons in an effort to shore
up Britain’s ailing economy.
“The General Tries to Rock the Boat,”
headlined the London Evening Standard.
“Now De Gaulle Steps In, Piling on the
Agony,” bannered the Evening News.
He offered France’s cooperation in
drafting a new monetary plan but warned
Washington and London that France might
oppose any decision delaying establishment of a renovated international financial

system.
The 77-year-old De Gaulle, who has
been gradually stepping up his war on
the Anglo-Saxon currencies, declared:
“The crisis of the dollar and pound
sterling which is currently developing
shows that the present system, based on
the privilege of reserve currencies, is not
only unfair, but also henceforth inappli-

The President’s request to the House
and Senate came as Senate Democratic
leader Mike Mansfield promised that
Johnson would “cooperate” with Congress
in cutting spending as its price for approving his requested 10 per cent income
tax surcharge.

Johnson asked that Congress allocate
$500 million of the Export-Import bank’s
existing $13.5 billion authority as a special
fund to help finance a broad program
for selling U.S, goods overseas.
The money would be used to assist U.S.
firms who now sell only within the United
States to expand their markets to foreign
countries, and supply .export financing to
make U.S. firms more competitive with
foreign exporters.

Johnson, whose plan is aimed at reducing the balance of payments deficit, also
asked for prompt approval of the $2.4
million appropriation he submitted March
1 to enable the commerce department “to
launch a five-year program to promote
American exports.”

Mansfield said Johnson would cooperate
with congressional demands that spending be reduced before taxes are increased,
but avoided confirming reports that the
President was ready to recommend cutting
$10 billion from his fiscal 1969 appropriation requests.
“I do know the President is very anxious for his 10 per cent surtax,” Mansfield
told newsmen. “He would, like to see
Congress take the initiative and reduce
whatever appropriations and expenditures
it thinks advisable and in the amounts it
thinks advisable. The President will cooperate. The amount would be left to

Rocky boosts riot report
NEW YORK
Governor Rockefeller,
in his first major speech bn national issues, day* before yesterday leveled criticism at those who greeted the report of
the President’s riot commission “with rejection and suspicion in some quarters and
almost total silence in others.
—

“We’ve got to unravel the tangled knot
of poverty, of welfare, of decaying cities,
and desparing people and the racism that
runs through it all,” Rockefeller said in
remarks prepared for delivery at a speech
before the convocation on racial justice at
Manhattan College in the Bronx.
“What is called for first is an expression
of national will, a great national commitment to attack the problem and to end
it,” Rockefeller said.
The speech, the governor’s first in many
months on national issues, put the New
York Republican governor a step closer to
entering the race for his party’s presidential nomination.
Rockefeller compared the civil rights

alogy between labor peace and racial
peace,” Rockefeller said “Let me make
one more point—Labor’s modern responsibility is a duty to remove the barrier of
race in the nation as in any other American institution.
The governor oulined his proposed State
legislation that would use $5 billion of
private capital and $1 billion in state bond
funds to build housing and new industry
in city ghettoes.

But he left little doubt that the program

was scaled for conversion to the national

level when he added “this program calls
for taking the know-how, the resources
and the imagination that helped make this
country great and applying them to this
country’s greatest domestic challenge.”
“A people who built the world’s freest,
strongest, greatest nation can overcome
the ugly legacy of racism, “Rockefeller
said.

sheriff arrests

Alabama’s first Ne-

gro sheriff since Reconstruction arrested
a white police chief and a state trooper
earlier this week on charges of threatening and beating a Negro man.

Chief Bobby Singleton of nearby Notasulga was arrested by his Chief Deputy,
Eddie Ivory, a Negro, and Trooper James

Both Singleton and Bass immediately
posted $300 bonds and were not jailed.
Their cases are scheduled for April 1.
Amerson, who became sheriff of this
county with an 80 per cent Negro population in January, 1967, said the two white
officers were arrested on a complaint
signed by Oscar Lee Devance, about 22,

Sheriff Singleton was charged with

with assault and battery, Amerson said.
Bass shot and killed a Negro last T&gt;ec

while intoxicated. Bass was treated at a
hospital for slash wounds.
Amerson said Devance filed the

Devance told Amerson he was in his car
outside a nightclub near Notasulga when

Singleton approached him and

the University community to

It essentially reverses the scene
of the popular teach ins where
everyone went to one place to dis-

learn about the war—or, according to one organizer, “confront

Law students offer alternative
to Moot Court' requirement
A petition terming the recent decision of Law School
administrators to begin Moot Court proceedings later this
month “arbitrary, unruly burdensome and prejudicial to an
effective program of study” has been filed by 168 freshmen
law students.
Normally,

a

required course

for all freshmen, Moot Court was
dropped temporarily at the start
of the second semester due to

budgetary problems.
The course’s implementation at
this time, states the petition,
would “defeat the goal of the
entire program” by interfering

with the normal class work load.
It criticizes the scheduling of
Moot Court, noting that it Would

normally devoted to review for
final examinations.
Law School Dean Wiljiam D.
Hawkland affirmed his support
of the petition. He predicted that
the curriculum committee will
rcommend passage of the petition
at a faculty meeting this week.
If so honored, the Moot Court
requirement would be abandoned
for this semester.
The course, which usually begins at the start of the semester,
involves the hearing of cases under courtroom conditions. Four
students are selected to argue
each case.
They are required to research
precedents and other pertinent

details of the situation presented
them by a faculty member who
hears the case.

Four alternatives

The petition suggests four alternatives to holding the Court
this semester:

Opposition by some Faculty may cause the Faculty
Senate to withdraw its strong anti-Viet resolution.
The University Faculty
Senate passed March 8 what
is perhaps the strongest denunciation of the Vietnam
war ever passed by a major
American University.
The resolution, passed by a
vote of 91-37 stated that the

war was “immoral, illegal, contrary to American principles and
to the best interests of the United
States, and genocidal to the Vietnamese people.”

The resolution stated a position “opposed to military conscription in any form,” and urged
that President Johnson “take all

and destruction in Vietnam, immediate de-escalation of the military forces present and immediate relief of human suffering.

Much of the controversy which

has ensued since the passage of
the resolution concerns the feeling of many faculty members that
it represents “a false picture of

the fact that about 130 members

was passed, out of a general membership of approximately 1100.

Spectrum that it was a "mistake

for the Faculty Senate to take
such matters up.” He stated that
the call for the meeting did not
indicate the topic of a resolution
would be raised. The special
meeting was called with the intention of discussing the recent

draft law revision that eliminated most deferments for graduate students.

Dr. Baumer also indicated that
he is interested in seeing the

will be called at which time the
petition will be presented.

Dean of Students Office gives Syracuse, 5
help to re-classified students accept state
by Carol R. Richards

by Gail Barotx

What happens to the many stu.
dents who will be reclassified under the new draft law? Can anything be done by the University
to help them regain their 2-S classification? Assistant Dean of Men
Ronald H. Stein says that the
majority of the University’s attempts to aid students have been
successful.
Formerly, the fact that a student was enrolled as a full-time
student in a university was
enough to insure him a deferment. Under the July, 1967 draft
law, a student has four years to
earn his degree.

If he is in a four-year program he must satisfactorily complete 25% of his credits by the
end of his freshman year, 50%
by the end of his sophomore year,
etc., until his senior year. A student in a five-year pharmacy or

engineering program must
plete 20% each year.

com-

Reclassification danger
Under this law there are many
reasons for loss of the 2-S deferment and subsequent reclassification. Often a student decides
to change his major and hence,
does not have all the required
hours toward a degree within the
specified time. Some students
transfer from non-liberal arts colleges, a terminal two-year program or a technical program,
They may be enrolled as juniors
but still lack enough transfer
credits to graduate in four years.
Students may simply fall behind
academically or fail to notify the
draft board of their status.

Each student is given information on how to write to the local
board and are told the appeal
procedure. Letters are also written to the student’s local board
by the University, explaining the
case and requesting the return
of the 2-S classification or a 1-SC
classification, which is a temporary deferment until the end of
the academic year or graduation,
whichever is first.

1970,

At the same hearing, State University Chancellor Samuel B.
Gould put his stamp of approval
on the Bundy Report.

Aid needed immediately
Dr. Tolley said the need for
aid was so urgent that he hoped
the legislature would approve
the Bundy recommendations immediately so that aid—which
would total $1.8 million a year
for Syracuse—would be available
in 1969.
He said the choices confronting the state are to let the private institutions die; to take them
over completely; to accept the
middle ground recommended by
the Bundy Commission.
Committee Chairman Joseph
Kottler, a Democratic assemblyman from New York City, asked

“If we offer you money and
we say you can’t have it unless
you uphold the public functions
of a university, what then?”
asked Rep. Kottler.
“We know we can’t have it
both ways,” Dr. Tolley replied.
“The minute the state gives
money to a university the relationship changes.”

Mr. Kottler persisted: “Are the
private universities willing to accept this?”
“As far as the universities are
concerned,” said the Syracuse
Chancellor, “I’m afraid we have
no choice. “It’s the only middle
ground.”

“But,” Dr. Tolley added, “the
state would be ill-advised to try
to operate the private universities.”

tant Director of Admissions, explained that the new draft law
is based on a 12-month academic
year, instead of the previous 9month year. This provides the
student with more leeway. For
example, in an academic year
from September to September,
the student who wishes to change
his major or make up credits,
has the summer before and the
summer following to do so. But
often this is not possible since
many students must work during
the summer months.

other universities would
control in return for aid

from the students. The large size
of psychology 101-102 sections
was criticized, along with the lack
of interesting content in the
course. Suggestions for changes
included separate sections for
future psych majors, and greater
concentration on specific areas.
Psych 208-208 (Statistics) was
considered too demanding and
“too dry” for non-psych majors.

It was suggested that the course
not be a pre-requisite for upper
division courses and that the
course be worth four credits or
be taught in one semester.
Students complained of over-

crowded classrooms and teachers
who are “more interested in research than in their classes” in
the upper division courses. A
greater selection of courses, especially with a cilnical orientation, was called for. It was also
suggested that the course “Systems and Theories” be required.

Advisement scored
Students felt that advisors are
difficult to find and are not
aware of requirements. It was
suggested that students pick their
advisors and that advisors be selected in the interest areas of
students. Graduate advisement
was considered poor and too late.
A specific group of teachers just
to advise was called for.
Many students considered comprehensives to be unnecessary for
those not bound for graduate
school and that they should not
be a requirement for graduation.
The exam should either be eliminated, or made optional or voluntary.
The honors program was found
to be quite satisfactory, though
not well publicized. Students hope
that it be started in the junior

year and that it be extended to
those with an idea for a project,

but lacking the grades.
Senior seminar was criticized
mainly for the lack of enough sections. It was suggested that they
be open to juniors and offered at
more reasonable hours.
On the issue of faculty-student
interaction, the problem centers
around the lack of opportunity
to get to know the professors.
More faculty-student functions—coffee hours, student sponsored
colloquia—were asked for.
Students also suggested that
psych majors be allowed to take
education courses and that there
be a computer science course for
majors.

Miss Silverman mentioned that
the same questionnaire has been
recently distributed to faculty
members, although the results are
not yet compiled.

Supports strike
The Physics Graduate Student
Association has voted support for
a policy of general education on
the War and draft during the
Strike for Knowledge, this week.
They also voted support for the
Segal-Snell resolution passed by
the Faculty Senate March 8.
The organization has also
passed a resolution affirming an
individual’s right “to participate
in activities concerning the war
to the extent of his own conscience without fear of unjustifiable reprisal from the University.”

In conjunction with its policy
the PGSA is sponsoring Dr. M.
Ross, a High Energy Physicist
from the University of Michigan,
who will speak Wednesday at
noon, Room 114 Hochstetter, on
the role of the scientist in the
atmosphere of war politics.

highly informed sources.
Although the increase in manpower is now virtually certain, it

does not appear, at least at present, that Johnson will call
general mobilization of Reserve forces.
The President was reliably reported over the weekend ready to
order a moderate increase in the number of American troops in
possible
Vietnam, but they quoted him as calling some reports of a
200,000 man increase as “dove scare tactics.”
WASHINGTON— Sen. Robert F. Kennedy offered to stay out of the
Democratic presidential race if President Johnson agreed to appoint
a commision of leading “doves” to ease the nation out of Vietnam.
Johnson rejected the offer. So Kennedy decided to run.
Those are the bare bones of an astonishing story that added an
explosive new element yesterday to an already bitter political campaign.
Both Kennedy partisans and Johnson adherents denied leaking
the story to the press and each accused the other of distorting what
really happened. But leak it most certainly did, like a sieve.
The disclosure Sunday of the proposed deal brought immediate
“clarifying”—and sharply contradictory—statements from Kennedy,
who announced his candidacy only Saturday, and from a top administration official who was in on it.
WASHINGTON—The United Stales hoped yesterday to maintain
the purchasing power of the dollar at a stable level at home and
abroad although its ties to gold were partially cut.
Shifting to the defensive against those who have attacked the
dollar, America and her six European financial allies have locked
their vaults to further sales of gold to speculators or other private
interests and, in effect, switched to a two-price system for gold.
By agreement, the price will remain at $35 an ounce in transactions among cooperating governments. But gold will be permitted to
seek its own price in the private markets of Europe, Asia, and elsewhere. Speculators bid the price up to more than $44 an ounce last
Friday in Paris
LONDON— Jails yesterday held about 300 persons and hospitals
another 50 involved in an anti-Vietnam War battle between 20,000
demonstrators and 2,000 bobbies at the U S. Embassy in what police
called London’s most vicious rioting within memory.
NEW YORK— Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller, pledged to give “most
earnest and careful consideration” to pleas from Oregon Republicans
to enter their state’s presidential primary, gets another nudge toward
active candidacy in Washington today.
Meeting with 15 pro-Rockefeller Oregonians in his Fifth Avenue
aprtment Sunday, the New York governor listened to their appeals
but remained noncommital for the moment. He has promised to
make a decision on the race by Friday, the deadline for striking his

drive

A panel of VISTA volunteers discuss the question, "Is VISTA an effective, anti-poverty program?", during their recruiting visit here. Black
nationalism became one of the major topics of
discussion.

'One of the best ways of learning'
VISTA discussed and examined
—

Is VISTA an effective anti-

poverty program?

That question was considered Thursday by a panel
composed of VISTA volunteers as part of the current
VISTA recruiting drive here.
Dr. Jerome Fink, director of

Placement Services, moderated a

panel which included VISTA vol-

unteers

Howard Finklestein and

William Lorsung, senior James
Schwinger, and VISTA field representative Nick Ingram.
Mr. Finkelstein, a New Jersian
who now works on Buffalo’s Lower West Side said the program “is
based on the education thing.”
Special insight needed
“You hope that volunteers get
a special insight into the community and become able to talk
to people. The first few months
you put into becoming alienated
yourself may put you through
some changes,” he said.
A former VISTA volunteer in
the audience re-emphasized the
point when he said: “VISTA is
one way of going down and seeing
things. Some persons in the black
community told me: ‘Go back and
tell the white man what you saw.’
There are other ways of finding
out what is going on in the ghetto. VISTA is one of the best ways
of learning.”
Mr. Finkelstein made these
comments about the Lower West
Side project: “It’s a middle class
program. We had two black fellows—one quit and one got arrested for starting a riot. However, I wish it could be more balanced. People get hung up on
style. The human element comes

last the whole time.”

Superficiality?
VISTA is one of the poverty
programs under the direction of
the Office of Economic Opportunity. Unlike Head Start, Job
Corps or Neighborhood Youth
Corps, it is intended to organize
community action by people living in depresed areas. Volunteers uually sign up for one year,
or two at the most.
Does the short period in VISTA
foster superficiality among volunteers? Mr. Orson, another volunteer now working on the Lower
West Side, said: “It depends on
the individual: What I have done
on the west side could be continued by people within the community. A period longer than a
year might foser dependence on
the VISTA worker. There are
mothers and kids who can take
care of programs. The diletante
aspect is possible in some cases,
but not usual.”
The issue of Black Nationalism,
and its connection with VISTA,
arose. The VISTA workers said
that a white worker approaching
the Negro community with a feeling of hostility can be in a lot of
trouble, but they hadn’t met with
any great hostility. “As I say,”
Mr. Finklestein commented,
’’when you first go into the ghetto, you go through a lot of
changes.”

economic sytem with the race
problem, Mr. Schwinger, a Community Aid Corps worker, said:
“The system can mechanically
handle the problem of poverty.
The people implementing the system have not demonstrated social
conscience. We could wipe out
the problem, but we haven’t dealt
with it.”
VISTA’s relation to the recent
rioting in cities was discussed by
a member of the audience: There
was a general recognition that
young rioters spoke for the community. The riots unified the
ghetto in a way that VISTA could
not.” Mr. Kinklestein added: “Nobody in VISTA could do anything

that the riots didn’t do,”

Some speakers expressed the
opinion that basic changes are

needed in the system, over-reaching VISTA to eliminate poverty.
A speaker from the audience
said: “If we could convince the
businessman that he can make a
profit with a guaranteed annual
income because people will be
able to buy more products; if we
can put improvements in a technological guise, we could convince
the busines man to eliminate poverty.”

The makings of a President: RFK
Throw the precidents out. Robert F. Kennedy is making
a bid for the Presidency even though it means bucking the
incumbent for the nomination. It’s simply beautiful.
Until now, the prospects for any kind of election in
November seemed bleak. Lyndon Johnson opposing any one
would consider a significant election
But all that is changed.
The efforts of Sen. Eugene McCarthy are admirable.
The job he has done to bring anti-Johnsonian sentiment to
the surface has been excellent. Few political analysts, however, could conclude a successful drive for the nomination
by McCarthy. Johnson still had it all wrapped up.
But now Lyndon Johnson is worried. Robert Kennedy is
a much more substantial threat. He has greater support in
the Democratic Party and, more importantly, among the
voters. Kennedy can get the nomination; and the Democrats
know he can win in November.
Sen. Kennedy has been called an opportunist. All Presidential candidates are opportunists. Since when has opportuism become a dirty word? The difference is simply this:
Robert Kennedy has the ability, the fortitude and the proper
perspective of the issues to be an excellent President.
a change that
This nation is in dire need of a change
will restore the programs, the policies and the ideals of the
New Frontier. It needs a man who can undo all the blunders
and absurdities that the Johnson Administration has been
prone to.
No “me too” candidate will do that. No uncommitted,
evasive candidate will do that. No hawkish, flag-waving conservative will do that. Robert Kennedy will.
Why Robert Kennedy?
Chiefly because he is a man with the right ideas on our
foreign and domestic policies. He is a man who can act and
will act to further those ends. He, unlike McCarthy, is a man
who can win. He was all the makings of the President, 1968.
Look around, and try to find another.
Robert Kennedy’s bid for the Presidency is the most
promising event of the past five years. We trust that he will
be successful.
Why Robert Kennedy?
Why not?

the burgher

writings

When first written upon the banks of the Gen-

esee River, The Burgher called this simply “White
Woman of the Genesee.” Later, and for no discernable reason it became “Ode to Mary Jameson.”

Still later, after much revision, it became the following:

Who are you Mary Jameson? No more than
1742-1833? Only “White Woman of the Genesee?”
Could you walk these waters? Scale these falls? Did
the Senecas treat you well? Like a goddess?
Gazing at these falls, Mary Jameson, I can’t be-

lieve you scaled them. But you wouldn’t believe
what we’ve done to your land. Land is not valuable
any more. Here it is filled with neon signs and
coke machines. Picnic tables, garbage barrels. No
part unscathed. In another country our bombs
chum the soil. Tons of bombs. Every day.
Your land though, these immediate lands, have
fared better, than others’. Broken promises, broken
treaties. The land left to other Senecas by the
Father of Our Country is beneath a hundred feet
of water, backed up behind Kinzua Dam. The Senecas have relocated again however, until Uncle
Sam or Howard Johnson plan a new highway or

find the path of righteousness?

It says that, before you died, you “expressed a
hope of pardon through Jesus Christ?” Pardon for
what, DEH-GE-WA NUS.” Did you commit atrocities? Did you burn enemies? Did you not like life
among the Senecas? Did you know Jesus?

I stood before a council house near the bands
of the Genesee. It says that war parties met here
before they “devastated the frontiers.” The building is small, rectangular, no pentagon, I looked

around and asked, “WHO devastated the frontiers?
How many ‘savages’ could gather in this small
hovel? Fifty? Five hundred thousand?”

Psych students crying wolf?

The Association of Undergraduate Psychology
Students has worked very hard for the past three
weeks in consulting with Dr. Silverman and contriving all possibile channels for the undergraduate
psych student to take an active role in making possible improvements in the Psychology Department;
all possible ways for him to have a say in his
future as a psych major. The Association of Undergraduate Psychology Students distributed 500 questionnaires in the psych classes; only 60 were returned. Alas, it appears as though the undergrad
psych majors desire a dictatorial representative
board, who will plan what courses they will take,
the texts they will use, and say 20 years from now,
what they will say and how they will say it.

y .-?■ &amp;

Don’t cry wolf, if you want a say in your education. Do your part! Hand in the questionnaire and
any suggestions you may have, to the suggestion
box in Townsend Hall, or call any of your representatives. And if you can spare the energy, make
it to the open meetings, the first of which will be
held at 4 p.m. Friday in Townsend.

Army has 'Food Service/ too
I have just finished reading your article on the
Food Service. I must admit it brought to mind
some very colorful moments in my immediate past.
However, my recollections were not over this food
service. I was thinking of a very past, but happy
moment while I was on active duty.
We also had a food problem. State-side, not
much money is spent on food, and it is of a very
poor quality. The point is we had a great deal less
freedom to protest, but we got better food.
Bluntly, what we did was to stop eating at the
Mess Hall for about a couple of days. Of course in
our case it meant a little starvation till we could
get off base, but students aren’t restricted like this.
What’s more, there are people in sufficient number
living off campus who can invite one or two people
from the dorms over on one or two nights for

dinner.
This University is pretty good at organizing
things. What about it? Aren’t we capable of striking the “Food Service” and causing a loss they
can’t afford?

Replies to Festival Committee
To the Editor:

The letter in Friday’s Spectrum, signed by the
Spring Arts Festival Committee contained many
mistruths.
(1) I did attend a meeting of the Spring Arts
Festival Committee. Doane Hollins, Jane Spitalnik
and Sara Schrom sat at the other end of the table,
but perhaps they cannot see that far.
(2) The entire article was read and re-read by
the S. A. F. Publicity Chairmen, Joan Connell and
Sandee Lippman. Mistakes in the schedule are due
to the Committee’s oversight.
(3) The adjective “irresponsible” is one added
by the committee heads themselves to themselves.
(4) The “misquotes” mentioned, but not referred
to, are verbatim statements. If the committee is
disturbed about the interview, it is disturbed about
its replies.
As to the argument for additional information
on the artists, I agree. For reasons of its own The
Spectrum delayed printing my other articles.
I sincerely hope the Committee’s lack of courtesy
both in aiding the write-up, and in its subsequent
unfounded attack, does not leave the Festival with
a royal pain in the nose.

Perhaps it is wrong to discuss one’s actions on
the basis of morality. The problem with all of us

feel very proud of Ourselves; few of us think highly

Compounding that problem, we are eternally keeping a facade so that no one else is ever sure that

All this is first grade psychology and in one

a different form of Pres. Johnson. He said a change in personality would not change the imperialist policy in Vietnam.
As

members of the audience

continued to take turns at the
microphone, a division in opinion
formed. One, student reminded
the audience that “in changing
society the political thrust must
be primary. A lot of students’ interest lies in ending the war.
There’s a large base of support
around which we can mobilize for
McCarthy and Kennedy.”
Robert Cohen, a graduate student in the Philosophy Department took the side of those expressing discontent with working
within the political system.

He accused Sens. Kennedy and
McCarthy of taking the anti-war
movement that was built “on our
tears and sweat” and using it for
their own political advantage.
“They won’t bring us the changes
in the society that we want,” said
Mr. Cohen.

Reptilian war
“Because the war in Vietnam is
so reptilian, we jump at the first
man who says he is going to stop

the war.” Mr. Cohen cried; “We
forced ourselves on people, we developed new concepts, we were
the ones who brought the issue to

the people.”

Mr. Cohen noted there was a
dilemma between the immediacy
of ending the war and “achieving
the type of society that we really
want.” His choice was clear, but
his distaste for accepting “slow,
methodical gains” brought complaints from others present, ,
Professor Sidney Wilhelm had
begun the evening by drawing an
analogy between Nazi Germany
and South Vietnam. He predicted
that President Johnson would resort to sheer autocratic power
should this facade finally collapse. “Johnson would prevent
any possibility of himself being

removed,” warned Prof. Wilhelm.

William Yates, a member of
the English Department at State
University College, declared that
the American university plays a
large role in any war, including
Vietnam. “The U. S. military industrial complex requires the intellect produced in the university.” Mr. Yates accused this University of “participating in the
Pentagon bureaucracy.”

The last two speakers, Assistant
Professor of English Robert Hass
and DRU leader Carl Ratner,
both called for students to make
draft resistance a political movement. Mr. Haas said: “You are
being trained to run the machinery; they need manpower.
We must refuse to spend our
lives on their war.”
The panel members stayed free
from the ensuing discussion except for one statement by Bill
Mayrl, who said: “It’s amazing
that we take such a fatalistic approach towards organizing a real
movement in America.”

Opposition aired...
Continued from Page 1

Dr. Milligan told The Spectrum: “I’m very much opposed
to the war and was happy to see
such a strong resolution passed.”
Indicating his opinion as to
why the resolution was passed at
this time, he said that previously

the draft didn’t affect the university system as strongly as it
does now.
“The draft is breathing down
the neck of the middle class,”
Dr. Milligan said.
“I have every reason to believe that every member of the
Faculty Senate doesn’t share this
view,” said Dr. Marvin Zimmerman of the Philosophy Depart-

ment.

Dr. Zimmerman also said he

felt the faculty had a right to
take a stand.
“I see nothing wrong with
that,” he said, “as long as academic freedom is not violated.
They had a right to pass it as
long as they don’t bar anyone,”
Dr. Zimmerman continued. He
described academic freedom as
the protection of any view “no
matter how reprehensible or immoral one thinks the views is.”

Dr. Zimmerman said he had

“a lot of criticism on what we’re
doing in Vietnam,” but felt we
had a right to be there. He also

indicated that he would like to
“call upon President Meyerson
to ask for a mail ballot of the
total Faculty Senate on the question of the resolution to guarantee a fair representation of faculty opinion,” which he felt was
not represented at the meeting.

If you don't agree that
business destroys individuality,
maybe it's because you're an
individual.
There’s certain campus talk that claims
individuality is dead in the business world.
That big business is a big brother destroying initiative.
But freedom of thought and action, when
backed with reason and conviction’s courage, will keep and nurture individuality
whatever the scene: in the arts, the sciences,
and in business.
Scoffers to the contrary, the red corpuscles of individuality pay off. No mistake.
Encouraging individuality rather than
suppressing it is policy in a business like
Western Electric—where we make and pro-

vide things Bell telephone companies need.
Because communications are changing fast,
these needs are great and diverse.
Being involved with a system that helps
keep people in touch, lets doctors send cardiograms across country for quick analysis,
helps transmit news instantly, is demand-

ing. Demanding of individuals.

If your ambition is strong and your abilities commensurate, you’ll never be truly
happy with the status quo. You'll seek
ways to change it and—wonderful feeling!—
some of them will work.
Could be at Western Electric.

cut
The number of males entering graduates school next fall may be
of 122
back by 70% due to the draft, according to a nationwide survey
graduate schools. —Total enrollment tn the first year will be only half of
last year's, with physics and engineering hardest hit.
The survey was conducted by the Scientific Manpower Commission and
the Council of Graduate Schools, which is sponsored by national scientific
societies and includes most graduate schools. About 40% of the nation's
first-year male students were included in the survey.
The commission reported: "The number of men involved in these
losses to the graduate population is not large in comparison to the number
of men available for military service only about 171,000 potential graduate
students out of an available draft pool of about 1.2 million men. However,
the 'oldest first' order of call insures the induction of virtually all of this
group and its consequent loss to the graduate schools next year." Almost
all those between 22 and 25 are expected to be called, except students past
the second year of graduate school or those in medicine, dentistry and
divinity schools.
"A few years later," the report warned, "the same loss wilt be felt by
industry, educational institutions, government and other users of graduate
level manpower." Universities dependent on graduate students to teach basic
undergraduate courses are expected to curtail their freshman enrollments
by 20% of last year's total.
Mrs. Betty Vetter, executive secretary of the commission, told reporters
at a news conference: "We will certainly have the most educated Army in

Critical Language Pn

Students learn non-Western tongues
by Gail Barotz
Spectrum Staff Reporter

Have you ever thought that you
would like to learn Chinese or
Arabic or another non-Western
language? At the present time
approximately 47 State University
of Buffalo students are enrolled
in the Critical Language Program,
learning such languages as Arabic, Chinese, Hindi, Hungarian.
Japanese, Swahili, Tagalog and
Vietnamese.
The Critical Language Program
is open to carefully selected students who have a strong motivation and a serious reason for
learning an African or Asian
language. Peter Boyd-Bowman,
the director of the program, admits students on the basis of a
personal interview and their performance on the Modern Language Aptitude Test, the same
test used by the Peace Corps
training program.
Selected students are generally not language majors; they include majors in political science,
history, sociology, economics, and
anthropology. Students must
have plans for work in a country
—perhaps through the Foreign
Service—where knowing the language will be an important tool.
The Critical Language Program
is a self-instruction program;
there are no teachers involved.
Students work on their own with
tapes for a minimum of seven to
ten hours a week. A text supple-

Dialogue with foreign students needed
by Gustavo Rojas
Sptdrum

Sfoff

Reporter

There are almost 600 foreign students on campus.
The number is large indeed. How many foreign students have you seen, heard or met? Do you know what they
do, what they are like, where they go?
Today, communication represents a major weakness of
mankind. Regardless of cultural backgrounds, we are constantly faced with our inability to express ourselves in a
meaningful manner to others. The purpose: mutual understanding. To listen and to be heard in order to attain the dialogue we often miss.
The communication gap may, in
part, explain why some people
are so isolated on our campus,
despite their nationalities. It may
well prevent some of us from
getting acquainted with different
ways of doing things; perhaps
with more efficient methods of
coping with certain daily situations.
Some concerned North Americans on campus talk about socioeconomic and political systems
which exist throughout the world.
Some go ahead to speculate on
the possible impact of U.S. policies abroad. However, a few ac-

tually try to associate these topics
with the foreign student.
What he has to say about his
own country.
Maybe in our attempt to be
scientific, we miss the human
perspective.

I guess without attempting to
be normative or dogmatic, I am
concerned with the lack of international interaction and understanding on the campus: our inability to communicate meaningfully, beyond our fears, preju-

dices. and inhibitions. Effective
communication may bring about

a deeper insight into the current
world picture.

Last semester, on the International Club’s main bulletin
board a sign read: “Students of
the world unite for a better life.”
Just below it somebody wrote:
“You have nothing to lose but
your grades.”

I suppose everyone has his ob-

jectives in going through college;
some limit themselves to the
classroom and book reading experience; nevertheless I think it
is possible to combine the strictly
academic training with the human

and ever present aspects of life.

By a month ago, a bunch of

merits each course, and students
may work at their own speed—covering two years work in one

if they are able.

Foreign students tutor
Ip addition, each student meets

with a private tutor for two to
four hours a week. These tutors

are native-speaking foreign students at the University and their
purpose is to aid the student with
pronunciation and with whatever
problems he might have. The
student must take the initiative
and let the tutor know what material is to be covered and on
what he wishes to be drilled.
Every student enrolled in the
Critical Language Program must
come to the Language Lab in
Crosby Hall once a week and
take a weekly proficiency test.
The test includes samples from
the units he has covered. A student must be able to answer immediately, to show he has mastered the material. These responses are recorded and kept on
tapes.
At the end of each semester
specialists from different universities, such as Cornell or the University of Michigan, come to the
University to administer an exam.
The visiting examiner alone determines the grade the student
will receive in the course. Most

of these examiners are distin-

guished people of national repu-

tation, often the author of the
course itself. These examiners
may recommend students for fellowships or graduate work.

Indonesian to be added
Japanese, Swahili, Hindi and
Chinese, respectively, have the
largest enrollments. Next year
plans are being made to drop
Arabic and Chinese from the selfinstruction program and have
them taught on a regular basis.
They will be replaced by Indonesian and probably Turkish.
The Critical Language Program

.

Carnegie grant
The Carnegie Foundation
awarded a $167,750 grant to the
New York State Education Department in Albany to develop
programs at private and public
institutions all over New York
State over a five-year period. Professor Boyd-Bowman was appointed general consultant and
coordinator for the statewide program. Under his aid and supervision, self-instruction programs
have been established all over
the

state.

Pleasing success

Professor Boyd-Bowman is very
pleased with the success of the
program. He cited the example
of a University sophomore, Marie
Doring, who was granted a Carnegie fellowship to spend her
junior year studying Japanese at
Princeton after one year in the
Critical Language Program. The
fellowship also included two summers of Japanese study, first at
Columbia and then at Harvard.
Professor Boyd-Bowman teaches
Spanish linguistics and directs
this program “as a service to the
University.” He hopes to see the
Critical Language Program continue to expand in the future.

the History Department, all junior-level history majors must pass

Professor Boyd-Bowman was
chairman of the Department of
Foreign Languages at Kalamazoo
College in Michigan for two years
prior to coming here in 1965.
There he developed a similar program under contract with the
U.S. Office of Education. The aim
of the program was to find a way
to offer these non-Western languages on campuses that could
not afford the expense of an instructor for a limited number of
interested students. The program

seminar for any reason.
History majors who will be
seniors in 1968-69 are exempt
from this requirement. All senior

a voluntary basis.

Problems relating to the junior
seminars may be taken to Dr. L.
Schneider, director of Junior
Seminars (Room 321, Diefendorf
Hall) or Mr. J. Taylor, administrative assistant of the History Department (Room 231, Diefendorf
Hall).

�A Villanelle for Contingencies
0 what will you do when the blinding flash
Scatters the seed of a million suns?
0 what will you do in the rain of ash?
I’ll draw the blinds, and pull down the sash,
And hide from the light of so many noons.
How will you go when the blinding flash
Disturbs your body’s close-knit mesh,
Bringing to light your lovely bones?
What will you wear in the rain of ash?
1 will go bare without my flesh,
My vertebrae will click like stones.
Ah. But where will you dance when the blinding flash
Settles the City in a holy hush?
I will dance alone among the ruins.
Ah. And what will you say to the rain of ash?
I will be lovely. My subtle speech
Will win forgiveness for my sins.
Yes. What will you do when the blinding flash
Is followed by the reign of ash?
Charles Martin

Already in the inner mind
the yearning of an air-raid siren springs,
the riot of shell holes burgeon,
and empty human streets begin.
Only the inevitable black out sings,
and only waiting’s blind.
How can a flower's rage
fading already in the blanching sun,
defeat such possibility?
Thoughts outstrip what eyes can see.
The eye intrudes, circles, and bunkers down
Pistils turn camouflage.

by J. G. Landes

By now everyone in the United
States must know that it is Sidney Poitier and his parents who
are “coming to dinner.” This film,
now appearing at Cinema I, is
Stanley Kramer’s latest attempt
at directing and is as pretentious
and melodramatic as his earlier
efforts.

In “Judgment at Nuremburg”
Kramer simplified the problem
of collective German guilt for the
atrocities of World War II, and
made, what turned out to be a
“daring” condemnation of Nazis.
Now in “Dinner” he comes to
grips with the problem of racial
discrimination in the same superficial and simplified way. Instead
of dealing realistically with what
is a fascinating situation, Kramer
pulls a classic cop-out.

Not only is Sidney Poitier’s
character so sterling and upright
that George Wallace would welcome him into the family, but
Kramer also presents the audience with one of the few liberal
Catholic bishops in the U. S.
and Irish yet.

after six employee organizations
had challenged Gov. Rockefeller’s
recognition of CSEA.

The package is the result of
the settlement reached last
Thursday by representatives of
the Civil Service Employees Association and Gov. Rockefeller’s
administration. It is an increase
over the governor’s February reallocation proposal for an 8%
salary rise, while less than the
CSEA’s original request for 20%.
It provides for a $600 minimum
increase and a maximum raise of
$2500, Pay now ranges from a
starting salary of $3325 for clerks
in Grade 1 to a maximum of
$26,310 for commissioners and
department heads.

CSEA President Theodore C.
Wenzl, in recommending approval of the agreement, told the
1000 CSEA delegates Thursday
that the agreement “constitutes
a major forward step.”

The agreement also includes $7
million in improved retirement
benefits and $10 million to cover
upgrading of job titles, geographic wage differentials and
overtime payments during the
fiscal year beginning April 1.

The CSEA had threatened two
weeks ago to conduct some sort
of state-wide “strike,” if some
wage accord were not reached.
The CSEA had originally asked
for a 20% wage increase, with a
minimum of $1000 per year.

The State Court of Appeals up
held a lower-court decision March
8, opening the way for resumption of negotiations.

Buffalo mermen take eighth place
Head swimming coach Bill Sanford and his swimming squad
wound up the season with a four
to six dual swimming meet record and finished in eighth place
in the Upper New York State

Championships.
The mermen were hampered
all season by illness and injury,
finishing up with no less than
seven on the available list for the
final two weeks of the season.
Sophomore sprinter Bob Lindberg was elected Captain for the
1968-69 season. He finished this
season as the team’s highest point
man, compiling a total of 56
points swimming in the 50-yard
freestyle and the 100-yard freestyle. In addition, Lindberg swam
a leg on the 400-yard freestyle
relay team.
Runnerup to Lindberg was another sophomore sprinter, Ed
Sargent, who entered the sprints
and the 400-yard medley relay
team. Sargent finished with 54
points for the ten meets.
Frank Nochajski was chosen as

the team’s most valuable swim-

mer and finished third in the
point scoring. The senior breaststroker finished with 53 points
entering in the 200-yard breaststroke, the 100-yard breaststroke
and the 400-yard medley relay
team.

Coach Sanford was also on the
sick list before the season even
started and had to rely on Assistant Coach Bob Bedell to keep
the boys in shape for the rest of
the practice sessions.

When John Serfustini enlisted
in the Marines during the sum-

Rebo success
Captain Rick Rebo had another
fine season in the one and three
meter diving events. Senior Rebo
had four firsts, four seconds and
one third place in nine events
before suffering an injury to his
back which eliminated him from
the State Championships. He
broke the school record twice
in the dive and was an inspirational leader throughout the season.

The problem didn’t stop with
injuries and illneses. One meet
was “rained out” when the fans
failed and condensation turned
the Clark Gym pool into a shower bath. Another meet had to be
cancelled when the bus never
showed up to take the team on
the road to Niagara University.

mer, Coach Sanford lost what
could have been an All-American
sprinter, had he remained in
school. Serfustini, as a freshman
last season, set a pool record in
the 50-yard freestyle event and
was improving as the season

ended.

Wrestling team places seventh in the
intercollegiate Invitational Tournament
The State University of
Buffalo’s wrestling team finihed the season by placing
seventh in a field of 22 in
the Interstate Intercollegiate
Invitational Tournament held
at Miami of Ohio.
Paul Lang’s second-place finish in the 191-pound class and

teammate Dan “Wally” Walgate’s
fourth in the heavies were the

best individual performances.
For the season, Coach Gerry
Gergley’s grapplers wrestled
their way to a fine eight to three
record. They opened the campaign in high fashion by winning
five in a row before losing a
match to Oswego, the defending

state champions.
The other two losses, one to

Cortland and the other to Brockport, were each decided by three
points.
Sophomore Harry Bell, who in
the fall plays football for Doc
Urich, was the top scorer of the
year. A real crowd pleaser who

Mike Watson, a very consistent wrestler throughout the season, was a valuable point-getter

nine and lost only one, and tied
one with three pins for 35 points.
The heavyweight duo of Paul
Lang and Dan Walgate, two more
refugees from the football wars,

Edelman

me last lew days have seen the start of the big awakening. Spring
,
is beginning Jo show it benevolent face in Buffalo.
For those interested in sports, spring has two important, but
highly related, connotations.
First, spring means liberation from a winter of staring at the
boob tube.
All those memories of Sunday afternoons watching football
doubleheaders, plus an over exposure of college and professional
basketball, ice hockey, and the special attraction of the quadrennial
Winter Olympics have left their mark on the true sports fan (or
should that be sports sitter) in the form of a highly noticeable paunch

around the mid-section.

When spring rolls around, sports sitters are placed in a very
difficult position.
Either they move from that very special chair in front of the
pleasure machine to engage in some physical exercise to remove
that pot-belly or they can remain seated, grab a beer and watch their
favorite baseball team go into action, all the time repeating to himself in the time honored tradition of sports sitters: “Some girls really
go for that pot-belly look. It makes me feel a whole lot older, just
like my old man.”
Spring training
The mention of baseball brings us to the second of spring’s eon
notations to the sports enthusiast.
Most fans really believe spring starts when the baseball teams
open up their training camps in Florida, Arizona and California in
preparation for the long season ahead.
It never ceases to amaze me that each spring, baseball makes
suckers out of all of us.
Spring training is the nearest thing to eternal hope. It is a delightful show that never varies in content.
It starts with the sports writers. Delighted to the point of ectasy,
in escaping from the hectic atmosphere of the office to the sunny
environment of Florida, the writers file reams upon reams of glowing progress reports on the home team. These optimistic reports
lead to the unmistakable conclusion that 19 teams (excluding the
Metsies) expect to finish in first place come October.
The loyal home town fans, anxious to sec their heroes perform
again, and hoping that they won’t be as bad as they were last year
when they finished in the second division for the umpteenth time
this century, devour the reports in expectation.
When you hear the same propaganda everyday and you really
want to believe that it’s true, you believe it.

Home team bets

As a result of this Hind faith, people actually go out and place
bets that their teams will finish first. This happens to be an acceptable
idea if your team happens to be the St. Louis Cardinals or any of
the other recognized contenders that do have a decent shot at the flag.
However, there are a large group of irrational people who insist
on placing a bet on the home team regardless of the fact that the
team has absolutely no chance of finishing first in a women’s softbefore moving down to the 191- ball league, let alone the American or National Leagues. Year after

The Red Sox weren’t to be denied, and the result was that the
bookies lost a lot of loot.
Another aspect of spring training worth commenting on is the
process known as rookie touting. At each camp there is at least one
rookie who can do it all, according to the press releases who will lead
the team out of the wilderness.
A prime example of this is the Yankees who each year find a
rookie who is the new Mickey Mantle, A couple of years ago it was
Joe Pepitone (who has enough problems just being Joe Pepitone).
This year the super star of the future is Ronnie Blumberg. This
makes good news copy, but words don't make a player (isn’t that
right Don Bosch?).
To leave on an optimistic note appropriate with the advent of
spring, the Mets, believe it or not, will finish in the top ten.

Madrid University

Editor’s Note: There is a student movement in Spain, and though
it has received scant attention in the American press, it has led to a
series of outbreaks between students and the police. Unlike movements
here, in Japan and in Germany, the Spanish student movement is not
concerned with Vietnam, but rather with the control exercised by the
police over Spanish universities. The center of student unrest is the City
University of Madrid, Spain’s largest public university.

by David Saltman
College Press Service

MADRID (CPS) —A first visit to the City University of
Madrid is a startling experience.
When I went there, a 35-day shut-down which was imposed by the police as a result of student demonstrations,
had ended and classes were in session.
Nevertheless, the Guardias Civiles, government security
policemen, were much in evidence.
In front of the building that houses the Medical faculty,
for example, there were three armored jeeps with four policemen in each, a small bus filled with about 20 more policemen,
and two helmeted Guardias in front of every door.
I couldn’t get inside, because
to do so requires a special identification card and proof of business, but I’m told that there are
more uniformed police inside patrolling the halls, and sometimes
dropping in on classes where they
suspect anti-government activity
might be going on.
In addition, there are plainclothes detectives who pose as
students at the university, as well
as genuine students who act as
police informants (mostly members of the Fascist youth movement).

Increasing repression
Although the government has
always exercised strict control
over the university, the recent

burned a city bus (empty) in front
of a platoon of policemen. Instead
of arresting the students, the po-

lice photographed the burning
bus and passed out the pictures
to the newspapers.
Early this year the police closed

down the Faculty of Sciences—one of the centers of student protest—with no explanation. After
dozens of demonstrations by students in other faculties (marked
by bloody and prolonged battles
with federal, local and University
policemen) they shut down one
after another. For a week the
entire University was closed, and
resembled an army garrison.
Toward the end of February,
all the Faculties were gradually
re opened, while the police quietly arrested as ■many DUSS delegates as they could find.

Spies
“Our problem,” says Pio Moa,
a second-year journalism student
who has close tics with DUSS, “is
that we can't get anything started.
The police have spies among the
students —especially fascists—who
tell everything. We’ve never had
a meeting that the police didn’t
know about.” At one demonstration, says Moa, the police arrested
some people before it took place.
They had a list of everyone
scheduled to participate and everything that was scheduled to
happen, he says.
“There are about 600 students
who don’t sleep at home any more
because they’re afraid of being

arrested,” he adds.
This police advance knowledge
makes peaceful protest impossible, says Moa. “At our biggest

to eight hundred students, with

he says. “They didn’t do anything
as long as you walked around, but
anyone who stopped was arrested

”

The blatant police repression
still goes on: Recently the papers
reported with evident glee, that
the police had “crushed” a proChinese student association, confiscating all its office materials
and books and destroying its
printing press.

”

The main obstacle to building
a radical movement, in the opinion of many student activists, is
the lack of a free press. There is
no way to pass information (posters are immediately ripped down,
leafleting is illegal) so there have
been no really big demopstrations. “It even took us a month
to find out that there had been

As it is now, even radical students are afraid. After a particularly revealing interview, one student lowered his voice. “I must
leave now. Too many people are
looking at us.” He stood up,
smiled quickly, and disappeared
into the crowd.

demonstrations in Barcelona,”
adds one student.

All frightened
“Everyone is afraid of arrest,”
explains Moa. “If a policeman
walked in here right now (into
the student dining hall) and saw
us talking and arrested me, no
one would help out.” There were
over 1,000 students in the hall.

Humphrey warns universities to accept
government military research contracts
In a
WASHINGTON (CPS)
recent statement before a panel
of Congressional advisors Vice
President Hubert H. Humphrey
—

has warned universities that if
they don’t accept money from
the government for research projects, the funds may be used to
set up government research facilities and the universities will
find themselves “living a rather
barren life.”
Speaking before a panel of
science advisors to the House
Committee on Science and Astro-

nautics, Mr, Humphrey addressed
his warning to “some of our university friends here.”
He told the panel that “many
times I have read in the press
there is a little rebellion on some
campuses about government research projects, projects in universities."

“I feel if you don’t want the
money,” Mr. Humphrey said,
“there is another place for it. I
sort of feel that if the university
wants to exclude itself from the
life of the nation, then it will

most likely find itself living a
rather barren life.”

Civilian applications
He said research sponsored by
the Defense Department has been
more useful “by far” in its civilian rather than its military applications.
“I hope that our universities
and our government can work together,” the Vice President continued. "I hope that there will
not be a breach because if there
is it will not be the government
that suffers, because the government can set up its own laboratories.
“I don’t think that is very
smart. I think the government
ought to work with the private
sector. I think it ought to work
through the great universities. I
think it ought to use the contract system. But if a nation is
denied that, then it has to have
some way to protect itself,” he
said.

Mr. Humphrey’s warning, whica
came in late January, was apparently in response to efforts by
faculty members and students at
some universities to combat military research projects on their
campuses.

Sen. Eugene
McCarthy has accepted Sen. Robert F.
Kennedy’s offer of aid in the Wisconsin
Democratic presidential primary but he
noted that when he really needed help

policies in Vietnam.”
Sen. McCarthy said he even saw a

Earlier, he had rejected any idea of
coalition with Kennedy until at least “a

“I walked alone,” McCarthy said in a
news conference following Kennedy’s announcement that the New York senator
was entering the race for the Democratic
presidential nomination.
Although he said he wasn’t turning
down Kennedy’s offer of aid in states
where Kennedy is not on the Democratic
presidential primary ballot, McCarthy told
the Green Bay news conference: “I think
I can still win in Wisconsin without help.
I’m still the best potential candidate in
the field. I can win,” McCarthy said.

Indiana primary.
Sen. McCarthy told a St. Norbert’s College audience in suburban West De Pere,
Wis., that he did not completely share
Kennedy’s notion that the two could work
in harmony as rivals for the Democratic
presidential nomination.
“I don’t think one Irishman can challenge another on the day before St. Patrick’s Day and tell him it’s going to be a
peaceful relationship. One Irishman can’t
challenge another and say they’re going to
fight for fun.”

He rejected any “deal” with Sen. Kennedy. “I’m not prepared to deal with anybody,” he said.

Londoners stage anti-Viet protest
LONDON

—

Thousands of anti-Vietnam

War demonstrators battled riot police outside the U. S. Embassy Sunday in a mas-

sive protest that bloodied heads, smashed
windows and littered Grosvernor Square
with debris.
It was one of the most violent riots in
London history, and the worst in recent
years.
Rocks tossed by the demonstrators shattered 13 windows in the embassy building,
but authorities said no one was hurt inside. There was heavy bloodshed in the
street outside.
Police reported 86 persons treated for
injuries and said 50 of these, including
about 25 policemen, were admitted to hospitals. Two policemen were seriously hurt.
At least seven busloads of bleeding dem-

instrators were hauled off by police.
The anti-American rally was sponsored
by the leftist “Vietnam Solidarity Campaign” and was attended by an estimated
20,000 members of various organizations including American students and black
power advocates.
From the rally in Trafalgar Square, the
demonstrators marched on the U.S. Bmbasy. Police reinforcements had been
moved in despite repeated protestations
from the rally leaders there would be flo
violence.

The battle erupted as soon as the vanguard of the mearchers reached the square
outside the American embassy.
Linking arms, the demonstrators
smashed through double cordons of police
onto the grassy center of the square across
from the embassy building.

An all-white circuit court jury returned
a guilty verdict last week against Cecil

Victor Sessum, 31.
The jury was unable to agree on the
punishment, and Judge Stanton Hall imposed a mandatory life sentence against
Sessum to start immediately. Persons convicted of lesser crimes usually are allowed to remain free on bond pending
an appeal, but bond is not permitted in
capital offenses.

Attorneys said Sessum would not become eligible for parole until he had
served at least ten years.
Sessum, a tenth grade dropout who
was identified by the FBI as a high-ranking official in the militant White Knights
of the KKK, stood chewing gum as the
judge imposed sentence. He showed no
outward emotion, but his wife, Mary, burst
into tears.
Sessum was the first of 12 alleged
klansmen and a klan attorney facing trial
on either murder and/or arson charges
in the Dahmer slaying. Dahmer, a leader
of a Negro voter registration drive, was
killed Jan. 10, 1966, when nigbtriders

hurled firebombs into

WASHINGTON
Sen. Robert F. Kennedy jumped into the presidential race
last weekend with a vow to work in harmony with the peace candidacy of Sen.
Eugene McCarthy against the policies of
—

President Johnson.
Sen. Kennedy said he would enter
primaries in at least California, Nebraska
and Oregon and urge his backers to vote
for McCarthy in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania
and Massachusetts preferential races.
Sen. Kennedy said he told both the
President and McCarthy of his decision.
As for Johnson, the New York senator
said the issue was “not personal; it is
our profound differences over where we
are heading.”
Asked if he would campaign for the
Minnesota senator’s peace candidacy in
Wisconsin and other primary states where
not competing, Mr. Kennedy said: “Yes, 1

will.”

Kennedy and McCarthy will compete
in primaries in California, Oregon and

Nebraska.

Asked if he would support the nominee
of the Democratic National Convention in
Chicago if he failed to win, Kennedy said
he would decide that at convention time.
As for the cities, Kennedy said jobs
were the most pressing problem.

Would stop bombing
As for the war
which he has said is

stands guard with a machinegun in a
bunker on the perimeter of this fortress.
North Vietnamese artillerymen exploded
American tear gas supplies at Khe Sanh,
sending acrid fumes throughout the
bunkers where Marines are seeking refuge from the heaviest artillery attack on
the base in two weeks.

Framed

the over-riding issue in the nation because of its broad influence on other areas
—Kennedy said he basically favored deescalation. He said he believed the South
Vietnamese should assume a greater role.
The senator said that he also believed
that negotiations could be held with the
National Liberation Front, the political
arm of the Viet Cong in South Vietnam.
If he were elected, he would stop the
bombing in an effort to get negotiations
started and that the United States could
always take retaliatory action if good
faith talks did not result, he said.

Aim is open convention
Kennedy said that before McCarthy’s
strong showing in the New Hampshire
primary 1, he felt that any race between

himself and the President would be one
of personalities. But McCarthy’s show' ’g
in the nation’s first preferential prinwy,
he said, convinced him he could oppose
the Chief Executive on issues.
Both he and McCarthy are aiming to
cause an “open Democratic convention
at Chicago,” Kennedy said.
He will let his name go into the June
California primary “in the belief . • that
Sen. McCarthy’s forces and mine will be
able to work together in one form or
another,” Kennedy said.
“My desire is not to divide the strength
of those forces seeking a change, but to
increase it.”

Stop
“Strike for Knowledge
the War” will attempt to suspend
“business as usual” Tuesday and
Wednesday. During the two days,
intensified discussion and analysis of the draft and the war in
Vietnam is scheduled.
Panel discussions with faculty
members, graduate students, professors and scholar from other
univerities, and journalists, are
planned. Consideration of possible action programs will be discussed at an evaluation session,
sometime Thursday.
One panel will discuss the
draft and its alternatives. Scheduled at 8 p.m. Tuesday, it will
be composed of Mitichell Goodman, the novelist and one of the
organizers of Resist, who was indicted with Dr. Benjamin Spock
for counselling students to resist
the draft; Michael Ferber, a graduate student at Harvard and a
native Buffalonian who also was
indicted with Dr. Spock; and Robert O’Neil, assistant to President
Meyerson, who will discuss the
constitutional aspects of the draft.
Another panel will include Ross
Flanagan, one of the persons involved in bringing medical supplies to North and South Vietnamese suffering the effects of
napalm. He will speak on proper
tactics in opposing the Vietnam
war. Other panels will discuss
topics such as the university as
a warmaker, electoral politics as
ah alternative to the war, and
the clergy and the war.

Guerrilla theater
A Vietnam Witness Service will
be conducted by Reverend Kenneth Sherman at 5 p.m. Tuesday.
It will be a folk rock service and
Will include witness against the
war and a poetry reading. Following the service will be an agape
dinner, a meal of reconciliation.
Other activities during the
two-day strike include draft counselling and the selling of antiwar books. Also, there will be a
guerrilla theater group which
will go to various locations on
campus and perform skits relevant to the war.
Faculty members are being
asked to cancel their classes to
free students to go to the dis-

cussion. According to Robert Hass,
assistant professor of English and
one of the organizers of the Strike
for Knowledge, many more faculty members will talk about the
war in their classes. He indicated
that those who do not feel competent to discuss the war should
discuss their discipline in relation to the war. Mr. Hass also
said that students should attend
their classes if their faculty members ask them to and if they will
be dealing with the war.

"Moral necessity"
When asked the reason for hava Strike for Knowledge, Mr.
Hass replied: “Because of the
changes in the draft law which
has rightly brought the war home
to the university, because of the
possibility of a massive escalation of the war in the near future, because of the recent Faculty Senate statement on the war,
and finally because of the kind
of anguish and wholesale reevaluation going on throughout
the conutry and especially in
Congress, it becomes a moral
necessity for the University as
a community of intellectuals to
come together and talk about the
future of the students and the
future of the country. At this
point, not to do that would be
a denial of our responsibilities
as human being.”
Support has been given by the
Graduate Student Association,
Student Senate, Graduate Philosophical Association, the Association of Graduate English Students, the Graduate Student Association of the Department of Political Science, and other groups.

cannot be, and is not in fact,
isolated from the machinery that
is carrying out the war.

The speaker was Professor Julius C. Edelstein of the City University of New York. Prof. Edelstein testified before the joint
legislative committee on higher
education on the need for more
state funds in the SEEK (Search
for Elevation, Education and
Knowledge) program.
The program seeks out collegemotivated underprivileged youths
in the Western New York areas
and in New York City and sends
them to college. Schools connected with SEEK include the
State University College of New
York' at Buffalo, Erie County
Technical Institute and Niagara
County Community College, and
City University of New York,
Queens College, Brooklyn College, Hunter College in the Bronx
and York College.

Slate University College at Buffalo President E. .K.-Fretwell Jr.,

said that cuts in the Niagara
Frontier SEEK budget could have
“great implications” for Negro
groups in Buffalo, Lackawanna
and Niagara Falls.

First real hope

“SEEK,” Fretwell said, "offers
the first real hope for higher
education, for a future, for some
of the thousands of disadvantaged
youth who reside in the slum
areas of our inner cities.”
Assemblyman Joseph Kottler,
chairman of the Joint Legislative
committee, said SEEK would be
in “grave danger,” if any cutbacks were made.
The dean of the SEEK program
in New York City, Leslie Berger,
said that of the 113 students who
enrolled when the program was
new, more than half are still attending college and 50% of these
have a “C” average or better.
These are students, he said,
who graduated from high school
with “general” or “vocational”
diplomas. Some only hold high
school equivalency certificates.
There are about 1800 SEEK
students in the New York City
program, and 251 in the Buffalo
project.

Prof. Edelstein said: “This program takes kids who are loose
gunpowder and turns some of

them into dynamite—but capped
dynamite—a powerful force for
good—armed with the power of
knowledge and the skill of professionalism.”

New structure in effect

Senate OKs Pub Board appointees
by Marian* Kozuchowski
Assistant Campus Editor

The Student • Senate Wednesday gave its “rubber
stamp approval” to the Executive Committee’s appointment of four members to the
remodeled 11-man Publications Board. One undergraduate position remains open.
The four members representing the Student Association are Marion Michaels,
Robert Young, Ira Lee Falk
and Carl Levine. They will
sit on the Board until the end
of this semester.
Two members of the Graduate
Student Asociation and four representatives of publications
either editors or their representatives—will be selected soon.
A new structure for the Publications Board was adopted last
semester. Unlike previous years,
the Board will have power over

interference

NEW YORK (CPS) —Samuel Gould, chancellor
of the State University of New York, recently
warned against outside interference in universities.
The head of the nation's largest state higher
education system was speaking particularly about
the recent raid on the university's Stony Brook
campus in which 30 students were arrested on
charges of marijuana possession in the middle of
the night.
"If the University is to speak honestly it most
remain politically unencumbered," Gould said.
"Thoughtful people everywhere have become disturbed of late over the possibility that universities
may increasingly be subject to pressures that have
nothing to do with education, but have much to do
with the momentary surges of public passion."

"Immature adjustment"

T

jority of questions were raised by
men.
Does pre-marital sex help build
an understanding between people?
Dr. Clark briefly replied, “Practice makes perfect.” He added
that most people can make a
happy adjustment without experiencing sex before marriage, but
for some people, it “could enhance their adjustment.”

Individual basis
Dr. Solkoff, responding to this

idea cited a specific study that
showed that the frequency of pre-

“There are those who have lived
together,” observed Rabbi Sher,
“who probably have a better marriage than those who have not,
but marriage is important in
my mind.”
The responsibility of the University in dispensing birth control information and implements?
Dr. Bayonet commented on the
legal aspects. He said that in
many states birth control advice
is still illegal. In New York State,
it is a felony for a doctor to give
contraceptives or pelvic exams to
minors without parental consent.
If the Student Health Service
concerned itself with birth con-

trol information and contraception, Dr. Clark explained that the
Service would be occupied “24
hours of every day, seven days a
week.” Giving out contraceptives
should be a matter of individual
attention, he continued. “The University Health Service can’t be
accessibly tied down by a few
areas that may be particularly de-

manding.”
Dr. Solkoff agreed that information must be individual and
can’t be given “a la gumball

machine."
The forum ended with no new
ideas being brought into play,
the stress being placed on individual relationships.

“Pre-marital sex at 3:30” was
the title of a forum Monday. It
attracted many curious students
and parents to the Fillmore Room.
The presiding all-male panel of
four specialists began the discussion with short presentations of
their views on pre-marital sex.

Q. Is Diefendorf a fire trap? When classes change the stairs are

A. Mr. Robert E. Hunt, Environmental Health Officer, carefully
observed the building’s traffic patterns and checked its architectural
details, with particular question about potential fire hazards. He concluded that the building is safe and has a sufficient number of fire
exits. As a result of this study, however, brought about by this Action
Line question, he has recommended that, “Consideration should be
given to establishing one way traffic on the stairways to the second
and third floor. In emergency situations, each stairway would be used
as a down stairway.” This recommendation and a detailed analysis

A. Dr. H. Eisenstein, Assistant Dean of University College, informed us that “Although 12 hours is technically considered a full

be made between those students carrying 12 15 credit hours and
those carrying 16 or more credit hours. “Honors” and “Dean’s List”

Q. Why does it take four to five days for an airmail letter to
reach me in Tower? The letters are dispatched from Long Island, properly addressed.
A. Without the specific evidence in hand we could only get a better understanding of the procedures involved. Mail that has a specific
address on it, i.e., building and post office box number, is handled
only by the Federal postman and delivered directly to the postal
station of the building addressed. Immediate sorting of the building’s
mail is then handled by the postal clerk and placed in your own post
office box. Barring any unforseen delivery problems, your letters
should reach you well within a 2 day period. The next time you have
this problem, check immediately with Mrs. T. Falk, in the Tower post
office station and show her the time-dated envelope. She should then
be able to track down, specifically, the holdup spot.

It was educational television at its best.
This week’s interrogation of the Secretary of
State by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee
made several important facts about the current
political climate dramatically clear to millions of
Americans.
Television managed to do what the other news
media failed, perhaps not so innocently, to do: it is
peculiar nature of the medium that makes a ‘live’
performance captivating in itself—there was no
running commentary, no commercials, only the absorbing drama of the courtroom-like hearing. There
could be no clever cover-up, no selective summations; the censors and opinion-molders could only
sit and watch and listen.
Televised Senate hearings are nothing new,
but ever since McCarthy sent shivers through the
spines of Establishment liberals in his demagogic
witch-trials of the early 50’s, Senate hearings have
been a potentially potent force in mobilizing elements of public opinion.

Two things have been done in the past: the
Senate has either been ignored (as in the Bay of
Pigs), or else been duped (as in the Dominican
Crisis, and the Gulf of Tonkin) into support.
Senator Fulbright admits that the executive
must make rapid decisions on pressing problems.
Realizing the fundamental necessity for popular
control in a democratic state, he is only asking,
a la J, S. Mill, for a role as a popular representative
in formulating and reviewing the general policies
which shall guide the executive.
Apparently, that’s asking too much.

Appeals for student strike
To the Editor;
The Johnson Administration has for the first
time brought the Vietnam War in its domestic form
to our doorstep demanding our support and approval. The suspension of advance degree deferments has shown that it is no longer possible for
anyone to shield himself from the realities of this
War. We have been enjoying the privileges of the
society from which others have been excluded: we
are now asked to equally share the burden previously carried by the blacks and poor whites. The
war contract in which we have all been implicitly
bound has been explicitly brought home to us.
Our opposition is not a plea for special privilege.
We recognize that all our lives are trampled upon
by this War. The question for us, then, as members
of the human community, and only secondarily as
members of the academic community is: Are we to
give aid to a morally and politically detestable war?
The University is an integral part of the system
which is carrying out the War. In its research and
in its training, the University serves the government and private industry. By so avoiding its responsibility to the pursuit of wisdom and its relation to pacified and rational society, the University
becomes just another institution which preserves
the status quo and the war. Because of this we will
withdraw our services in order to demonstrate our
refusal to be a partner in our down destruction.
Our withdrawal is a positive act of education,
an education which the University, by its very
nature, has failed to provide. These days of education will be used to develop and further our efforts
to establish societal alternatives which do not require warmaking for their extension and preservation. We ask not to close the University, but
rather to open it.
We therefore ask you to join, us ir these days
of education and the suspension of “business as
usual.”

The New Hampshire primary has dealt another blow to
Lyndon Johnson. Sen. Eugene McCarthy’s poll of 42% of
the vote is, in essence, an anti-war war vote.
More important, however, than McCarthy’s total was
Johnson’s, only 49%. This should make it abundantly clear
that neither Lyndon Johnson nor the war enjoy the mandate
many had claimed.
It is interesting also that Sen. McCarthy managed to do
so well against the President in the face of an organized
write-in campaign by pro-Johnson forces, strong statements
by the President supporting Rusk and denouncing anti-war
advocates Tuesday and Wednesday, and a commercial press
generally unsympathetic to the Senator. The news media
frequently hinted that a strong McCarthy showing would
give some sore of “aid and comfort to the enemy in Hanoi.”
We are looking forward to the next Primary with the
expectation that Sen. McCarthy will roll up an even greater
vote. Lyndon Johnson and his supporters are beginning to
worry. After all, how could the history books write the story
of a great President if he can’t even get his own party’s
nomination for another term?

The pressure against President Johnson’s war policies
is mounting. Events of the past week have placed the war
in Vietnam on trial to a degree greater than ever before.
The attack has come from two fronts- The Senate Foreign
Relations Committee and the voters oi New Hampshiie.
Sen. Fulbright and his committee members have managed to raise serious questions about our policies that Secretary of State Dean Rusk answered inadequately, or not at
all. Mr. Rusk repeatedly said that he would be glad to discuss
some of these issues with the Committee, but that he could
not do so “in public.”
The simple fact is that the Vietnamese war has been
a “private” affair from the beginning. Decisions made behind
closed doors led to “retaliation” after the Gulf of Tonkin
incident in August, 1964, and since then, have led to increased involvement in a fight in which the United States
has no business and, indeed, may have created.
The Foreign Relations Committee, like many Americans,
wants to get at the truth aboui Vietnam. They are tired of
taking matters “on faith” from an Administration that has
been shown to err all too frequently.
Sen, Fulbright has been seeking a commitment by the
Administration that would insure consultation with his Committee before any new escalation, but so far he has been unsuccessful. It seems as though the Administration is intent
on keeping the war a private affair.

Glad sex removes apathy
To the Editor:

Well, I’m glad to see that some students here
have finally been able to see past their noses to
attend something!
Monday’s Pre-marital Sex Forum, though really
a symposium, brought faculty and students out of
their holes long enough to participate in what
proved to be a fruitful and fertilie period of discussion. I observed the audience to be as large
as 800 at one point, with standing room only.
Although some of the forum was a re hash of
old questions and answers, it was informative
in some aspects.
The panelists, only one of which was particularly impressive, brought discussion and disagreement from overwrought mothers to naive girls to
angry young men.
One question which I feel should be investigated
further is the role of the Student Health Service
in dispensing birth control information and devices.
Those students who organized the forum deserve a great deal of credit. It certainly showed
that there is, if only a little, misconception about
campus apathy.
Maybe there should be more forums of this
type.

at certain points and mentioned issues

purposes of the festival. The points made about last
year’s festival, in their relation to this year’s festival, are one-sided. Specifically, no presentation resembling the music of the Fugs is being given this
year, nor is the theme of this festival social
criticism in the arts, so that an act of the nature
of the Fugs would not be a propos; therefore,
such a comparison is extraneous. It was not then,
nor moreover is it presently our purpose to cause
sensationalism. Nor do we intend to jeopardize the
positions of responsible leaders of this University
by virtue of the events that we present.
Next, there were numerous misquotes. Doane
Hollins did not state: “We have no definite idea of
thoughts, but criteria of freedom and honesty;”
nor did he say that he joined the committee to
“do something to get better facilities and more
tickets for performances he wanted to see;” finally,
Doane did not state that the Eleo Pomare (spelled
Pomare, not Pomares) Dance Company “tries to
appeal to the Negro audience.”
Furthermore, there were a myriad of false statements. Contrary to Miss Rosenberg’s contention,
a meeting of the Festival Committee always has a
certain direction to it. It is unfortunate that the
above reporter never attended a meeting of the
committee to verify this. Again contrary to the
article, there are no irresponsible last minute jugglings of the schedule: we rearrange events only
if artists are unable to meet their commitments
to the festival, as was the case with the Grateful
Dead. In addition to all this, several pointless
comments were made about the committee members and publicity materials (e.g. about the committee chairman’s enjoyment of hero sandwiches
and the ressemblance of publicity materials to
Betsy Wetsy dolls) which almost are not worth
the time involved to comment on them because of
their complete lack of relevance to the festival.
Finally, Carolee Schneemann will be appearing at
8 p.m. on March 18, rather than the time printed.
In place of these irresponsible comments criticized above, we wish to suggest that The Spectrum
should have been more energetic in reporting the
nature of the Festival, and less energetic in its
distorted report of previous festivals, of the supposed idiosyncrasies of the Festival Committee members and the nature of their planning for the
Festival. This year’s festival presents a rich
variety of artists whose performances would have
been enhanced by having had a thorough and interesting prospectus of them in The Spectrum. This
year’s Festival Committee has worked for months
to bring the University a stimulating and successful festival. Certainly, by virtue of this article,
The Spectrum has made a minimal effort to aid us
in the realization of this aim. The Spring Arts
Festival Committee sincerely hopes, in spite of the
impression conveyed by this article, that the University community will enjoy and benefit from the
pending festival.

rioting continued. The knights
were fighting amongst themselves
about who should become Grand
High Chancellor, as well as fighting against the peasants. “Peasant Power” was not diminished
by the riot tactics. However, within two weeks both the knights
and the peasants approved of Sir
Starstir’s plan. Satisfied with the
scheme, the peasants happily returned to the fields to await
the benefits which they assumed
would soon come to them. The
knights finally agreed on Sir Star-

stir and he was elected almost

unanimously. The country was

one of the first to attempt to penetrate
the murky factual situation surrounding
the Tonkin Bay incidents of early
August, 1964, and suggest that the

Senate Foreign Relations Committee, we

I. F. Stone's Weekly.

The story of American military involvement in Vietnam is the story of
one lie built upon another, ad nauseam.
This is the story of The Big Lie.
McNamara’s new version of the attack
contradicts the melodramatic account he
gave four years ago, two days after the
incident, behind the closed doors of a
joint executive session of the Senate’s
Foreign Relations and Armed Services
Committees. It was this graphic, but untrue, version which helped stampede the
Senate into voting the Tonkin Gulf resolution.
“The attack,” McNamara told the Sen-

ate committee four years ago, “occurred
at night. It appeared to be a deliberate
attack in the nature of an ambush. Torpedoes were launched, automatic weapons
fire was directed against the vessels (the
Maddox and the Turner Joy). They re-

turned the fire.”
Secretary McNamara said it was a “premeditated attack, a pre-planned attack.
It was described as an ambush in the
reports from the commanders, but because it was night, it is very difficult
to estimate the total amount of fire.”
The Secretary emphasized that: “The
shots were initiated by the North Vietnamese.”

If the transcript of the two hearings
and text of McNamara’s prepared statement are placed side by side, it is quite
clear that he and Secretary Rusk and
General Wheeler lied—there is no other
word for it—to the Senate committees
four years ago. He withheld from the
committees then

statement tried to withhold from the pub-

lic now—many crucial facts which cast
doubt on the whole story of the Aug, 4

attack.

Three or four hours after the supposed
attack, the task force commander on the
Maddox cabled a warning that “freak
weather,” an “overeager sonarman” and
the absence of any “visual sightings” cast
doubt on the attack stories and called for
“complete evaluation before any further
action.”
No one would know from his accounts
then or now that no debris had been
found, though. We claimed to have sunk
two and possibly three enemy vessels.
We ordered our retaliatory attack without
waiting to learn the outcome of a belated
order to search for debris.
McNamara urged “a decisive commitment” in Vietnam on Johnson a few days
after the Kennedy assassination.

South attacked North
Both the bombing of the North and
the commitment of combat troops to Vietnam were planned at the Pentagon several months before the Tonkin Gulf incidents.
The Tonkin Gulf resolution was prepared beforehand, and the course pursued
beginning in July 1964, was calculated

"Mr. President, eventually they will try us. Remember what
the senior Senator from Oregon says on the floor of the Senate
today when, in the years ahead, we get tried in an international
tribunal for our course of action in Vietnam. We will be found
guilty for that course of action in bombing those PT bases without ever attempting to get the incidents settled by way of international law." Sen. Wayne Morse, in the Senate, Feb. 21.
—

Thus was drawn a picture of “unprovoked aggression.” It was magnified and
emotionalized by President Johnson when
he went on television after the attack
and declared: “This new act of aggression,
aimed directly at our own forces, again
brings home to all of us in the United
States the importance of the struggle for
peace and security in Southeast Asia.”
This was echoed in the same high dramatic vein by Adlai Stevenson at the U.N.
Security Council the next day: “Without
any shadow of doubt . , . planned military
aggression against vessels lawfully present
in international waters” was Stevenson’s
decription.

The rhetoric made it sound like a new
Pearl Harbor.
When McNamara appeared before the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee a few
days ago on Feb. 20, he gave a very
different picture from that drawn four
years ago:
“At about

9:39 p.m., McNamara now related, “both Maddox and Turner opened
fire on the approaching craft when it was
evident from the maneuvers (not shots,
but maneuvers) that they were pressing
in for attack positions. At about this time,
the boats were at a range of 6000 yards

—
*

Even this scaled-down version was still
a deceptive picture of what actually had
transpired. McNamara released his statement during the noon recess of the Feb.
20 hearing, which was held behind closed
doors. He thus jumped the gun on the
committee by getting his version out first.

this kind
Sen, Gore: The Administration was
hasty, acted precipitately, inadvisably, unwisely, out of proportion to the provocation in launching 64 bombing attacks on
North Vietnam out of a confused, uncertain situation on a murky night, which
one of the sailors described as dark as
the knob of hell; and particularly, five
hours after the task force commander had
cabled that he doubted that there were
any attacks, and recommended that no
further action be taken until it was thoroughly canvassed

only well aware of the fact that those
boats were going up to bomb those two
islands three to six miles from the coast
of North Vietnam, but our Navy was in
constant contact with the operation and
knew what was taking place step by step.
The Maddox was not on a routine patrol
mission, but was acting as a spy ship.
As Sen. Morse observed, in his Feb. 21
speech: "Here you are, with islands three
to six miles away, being bombarded by
the South Vietnamese, and then you look
out and you see the U.S. destroyers not
too far away, stimulating the electronic
instruments of North Vietnam, causing
great alarm and concern on their part,
moving to the east and north away from
the area of bombardment,
“If one were North Vietnamese, what
would he think? He would not think that
those boats were on a pleasure tour. This
was a provocative patrol, and the North
Vietnamese knew it.”

disproportionate to the offense? . . . Why
did we not protest to the International
Control Commission as the North Vietnamese did on July 31, two days before the
first incident, when Hanoi formally protested attack on its islands?”
Sec. McNamara: Because the International Control Commission has a record
of failure in investigating incidents of

to create some kind of incident sooner
or later, to justify the expansion of the
conflict already decided upon.
A Rostow Plan No. 6 for “PT-boat raids
on North Vietnamese coastal installations
and then by strategic bombing raids flown
by U.S. pilots under either the U.S. or
South Vietnamese flags" was disclosed in
Newsweek as early as March 9, 1964.
The coastal raids began in July 1964
by vessels we supplied the South Vietnamese, with crews we trained, backstopped by intelligence our planes and ships
provided.

The collection of such information was
the business of those “routine patrols”
on which we sent our destroyers.
McNamara, in his prepared statement,
fell back on the superficial argument that
we had no “official documentary" evidence of this 12-mile limit. Even the
Geographer’s Office at the State Department admitted to I.F. Stone in a telephone
inquiry that it had always been assumed
that North Vietnam’s limit, like China’s
and North Korea’s, was 12 miles.
This is the testimony in the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee, (Feb. 20:

After witnessing a 90-point drop in the Dow Jones industrial average in the last two months, many observers
would be inclined to feel that the stock market should next
undergo some sort of consolidation.
However, there are others who would not be surprised
if the market dipped an additional 50 points. Their pessimism
can be attributed to one word—Vietnam.
Rumors that North Vietnam

might be willing to talk peace
were last heard Jap. 8. On that
day the DJI rose nearly eight
points. When those rumors proved false, prices began to drop,
falling sharply with the news of
the massive Vietcong attacks in
cities throughout South Vietnam,
Although a minor recovery followed (starting Feb. 14), prices
soon started a second decline

when i' was learned that the
Administration was considering
sending an additional 100,000
troops to Vietnam.

Wage and price controls?
It is the effect of Vietnam on
the economy that worries most
investors. Escalation in Vietnam
is aggravating such economic ills
as inflation and the balance of
payments deficit; but more important is the threat of Government wageprice controls. There
have been hints that controls
might be needed to combat inflationary pressures, especially if
Congress refuses to pass Johnson’s 10% income tax surcharge.

The war in Vietnam has increased the drain of dollars out
of the U.S. The balance of pay-

ments deficit is now at a seasonally adjusted $1.8 billion, the
worst in the last 20 years. The
result is that the position of the
dollar is now weaker than at any
time since WW n. Johnson’s
plans to stop the dollar drain,
which include curbing business
investments overseas, seem to
foreshadow future economic con-

trols. Thus, the action of the
stock market in the past two
months should not be viewed as
surprising.

Peace in Vietnam would almost
eliminate all the market fears.
The threat of inflation would be
greatly decreased; in fact, not
only would the threat of a tax
increase be removed, but a tax
decrease might soon occur. The
balance of payments problem
would be eased and the threat of
economic controls eliminated.

Stay on sidelines
The gold stocks have been just
about the only major group to
withstand the recent market drop.
The reason for their rise can be
attributed to speculation that the
government might soon have to
abandon the $35 per ounce price
of gold.
The airlines have been depressed and should remain in the doldrums for quite some time. Most
analysts feel that earnings in 1968
will be either equal to or lower
than earnings in 1967, There is
also doubt as to how well the
airlines will be able to finance
their huge jet orders. The only
way this year’s earnings might
increase would be if the CAB
(Civil Aeronautics Board) approv-

ed a general fare increase, which
many feel unlikely.
The conglomerate section has
a sharp decline,
mainly because of a poor earnings
report by Litton Industries. However, one stock which I feel is
experienced

definitely underpriced is Gulf &amp;
Western Industries. Earnings this
year should be near five dollars
per share. The stock is now selling at 40. However, there have
been rumors (which have been
vigorously denied by the management) that this quarter’s earnings might be lower. This will
remain to be seen.
I am still quite high on Tool

Research and Engineering. This
stock was extensively reviewed
in a previous article. It is now
selling at 44, Research Cottrell
is also a good buy. Earnings for
1966 were $,d7 per share. In
1967 RC earned $1.29 per share,
and predictions for fiscal 1968
range as high as $3.00 per share.
In addition, one should remember
that Research Cottrell manufactures

air pollution equipment.
The air pollution industry has

great potential and should definitely develop into one of the
leading industries in the U.S,

27, I don’t see how you can
go wrong with Columbia Pictures.
The motion picture industry is
At

becoming quite profitable. One
reason is due to the leasing of
films to television. Prices for old
feature movies licensed to television networks is constantly rising, and the average price is
$800,000 to $1 million a film,
Columbia has nearly a two year
supply of old features that have
not been released to television.

The movie, “Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner” is expected to
gross $20,000,000 for this confttry,
making it Columbia’s highest
grossing film ever. Couple all of
this with the fact that Columbia
expects 1968 earnings to jump
50% to more than two dollars
a share, this investment looks
very good.

In general, however, I would
abstain from investing at this
time and would wait to see what
actions are taken in regard to
Vietnam and the proposed tax
increase.
I have received many letters
as to my opinion of H.P. Limited,
This presents a very perplexing
situation. The old H.P. Ltd. was
a very popular issue. But recently, due to certain unexplainable
decisions and actions on the part
of the company, a loss of confidence has occured among the
bigger investors. Therefore I
urge a complete abstension from
investing in this issue (especially
those who attach great importance to future growth prospects),
until H.P. is able to return to its

old form.

program is being established by
the Economics Department for
the fall semester. Dr. Thomas Romans, associate professor and director of Undergraduate Studies
in Economics described the new
program,
y

It is designed for economics
majors and also for those with
majors in other fields. The program is a high level, accelerated
series of courses for exceptional
students and will lead to a single
or dual degree in economics with
honors.

Twelve hours beyond Economics 181-182 in a two-year sequence is required for the program, but applications will be
considered from students who
wish or need to complete the
program in one year. The content will cover material taught
in the 200 through 400 level
courses normally required of
economics majors, but in a highly rigid and quantative manner.

�Does anyone care about that land
The GSA proposal had three main parts
the Amherst campus site, that spends most
of its time brooding; "Nobody cares about
me. They just don't care. If I were a golden
beach on the lake, then they'd care. They'd
come out with the sun and talk to me with
their flat feet, and Td be happy. Or if I were
a snow-covered mountainside, they'd care.
But me
I know, they just don't care."
This sad report raises the question: What
good is 510 acres of flat land if it is not
needed for the purely educational aspect of
the University.? And more specifically: What

"Benevolent" purposes
If we go back to four years ago we can
see why the land was bought originally. The
FSA Board of Directors found they had a
considerable surplus of funds after the budget
had been balanced. And since the FSA is
a non-profit organization, the money would
be used to advance the "benevolent" purposes
of the FSA.
At this time, the 510 acres of land were
available, and the administration-dominated

Now, four years later, the FSA is scrambling
to find some use for the land.
After a scratching of heads, FSA subboard 1

to study the situation in detail.
This Land Use Committee includes representatives of undergraduate and graduate students, faculty and the administration.
After a period of research and discussion,
the committee handed in its recommendations: 50% of the land be devoted to a golf
complex (18 hole course, driving range, putting
greens, etc.); 50% to various recreational
facilities such as picnic areas, sports fields,
park area, and others as the land developes.
The golf complex was the most obvious use
of the land; however, sub-board 1, a studentdominated body, advised that the committee
return to their labors and study the matter
further.
This brings us, in a nutshell, to the present
stage of events.
Student interest lacking
So far, there has been no student interest
in the FSA land, in spite of the fact that it

was almost entirely student fees which paid
for the land, and which will pay for the development; and in spite of the fact that the
FSA (according to their own guidelines) will
plan ahead with the interests of the student
in mind.
The absence of students is quite likely
the cause for the muddled efforts to date.
With no definite reference for planning, the
FSA is forced into a guessing game: They must
base all their decisions on what they imagine
student opinion to be.
They do not have any real idea what the
"needs and desires" of the student are since
no one seems willing to tell them.
If nothing else, it has become apparent to
all involved that there are no clear choices, no
black and white alternatives. No one has yet
come up with any plans which have gained
overwhelming support. But the land is there,

would follow a slightly modified GSA plan.
This plan might provide a means for funding
the "nature park."
If no satisfactory plan for development can
be formulated, the FSA can resort to a different kind of alternative: Either let the land
stand unimproved until a plan with wide student support evolves; rent the land out with
an eye to using it later if some need arises,
or simply sell it, collect a profit, and let
everyone find his own recreation.
FSA bogged down

The FSA bureaucracy has bogged down in
one of its few endeavors at development.
The reasons behind the swampy turn of
events are many and difficult to tack down.
Lack of student involvement, basic organizational flaws in the FSA, and scant flow of
new ideas at the committee level appear to
be major causes. Of course, the one obvious—but often overlooked
reason for the lifeless
character of planning may be that there is no
need for the land, as originally believed, and
swept
that the FSA is beating a dead horse
along on the tide- of progressivism and the
compulsion to build and-grow which currently
enthralls much of the administration.
The next few weeks will probably determine
the fate of the land, and FSA members involved are hoping for some voicing of student
opinion which could clear-up some of the confusion which has set in and get planning back
on the right track.

from

Chairman Mao Tse-tung-Box (quotations from Box within Quotations
from Mao Tse-tung)" is the official title of Edward Albee’s new
play, “It’s a little large for the
marquee, so thus we shortened
it to Box-Mao-Box and now we
have two plays made into one,"
author Albee said at a recent
press conference before his work's
world premiere at Studio Arena.

First things first. I very strong-

recommend that everybody
should go see this film. Having

are in full blossom.
There are two major sets of
problems that I face in attempting to review “The Graduate."
One is an identification problem.
As in “Morgan,” and to a lesser
degree in “Georgy Girl,” it is all
too easy to become wrapped up
in Dustin Hoffman’s portrayal of

Now, one may ask, why Buffalo for the world premiere of
this newest creation of the renowned playwright? Mr. Albee’s
answer: “I thought it would be
nice to have the world premiere
done in Buffalo in an atmosphere
of absolute peace and quiet and
tranquility.”
Sitting in the State Left Bar
sipping ginger ale and nervously
smoking a cigarette, Mr. Albee
appeared fidgety and sensitive
to the questions posed to him by
newsmen. Some of Mr. Albee’s
replies were clever and amusing,
but many of his answers were

evasive and non-committal.

It struck me as rather paradoxical that an author who stresses
the breakdown in communication
between people as one of the
main themes in his works can
be so non-communicative himself.

In discussing his latest plays, he
commented: “They are more to
be apprehended circuitously. The
intention of the plays is to make

When asked about making a
definite, consisten statement, Mr.
Albee replied, “According to a
majority of the theater critics,

The

terribly confused.”

Alan Schneider, Box-Mao-Box
director, added: “The response
has to be more intuitive than intellectual to these plays.”
To playgoers who are Boxbound, Mr, Albee advised: “First
go to it, but go to it without having determined the nature of
the theatrical experience which
you might have. Go to it completely open intellectually and
willing to listen.”
Albee wrote a play last fall
called “Box” that was 12 minutes
long. About a month later, he
wrote another play “Quotations
from Chairman Mao Tse-tung,”
which ran about an hour and a
half. As he read over these two
plays, he began to see in each
a relationship to the other.
He felt they should both be
performed in the same evening.
And, as he thought further, he
saw “Box” a sort of “sensible
parenthesis around Quotations
from Chairman Mao Tse-tung;—
so indeed, why not do Box, Mao,
and then Box again?”
Mr. Albe«, can you give us a
remark or two about the source
of your ideas?" I don like to
think too much about my ideas—ideas in quotation marks
because I find it gets in the way
of my thinking.”
T think the majority of serious
plays that arc written . .
are
written with the hope perhaps
that they won’t have to be written again. If you present the
human condition as it is as you
see it, unless you write an escapist comedy, you are, I think,
suggesting to people that these
are conditions that if they don’t
like them, they might be able
—

.,

to change them. And therefore,

that same kind of play won’t
have to be written again.”
Mr.
Albee have you ever
though of writing not so serious,
more comedic plays? “I think
my plays are pretty funny, I
mean a lot of people do laugh
for a while during them—then
they stop, which is exactly the
way I want it.”
“I find that humor is awfully
close to crying, and I find that
you have to work hard to separate the two. Some people don’t
have that problem at all—Neil
Simon doesn’t have that problem
for a second—and I don’t think
he’s any happier than me.”
Did you ever think of being
a novelist or a poet?" “I tried
writing novels when I was a kid
and they were pretty terrible. I
wrote poetry starting when I was
six and stopping when I was 26,
it got a little better, but not terribly much. I don’t think very
clearly, so I can’t write essays,
1 made up my mind when I was
six to be a writer, so there is
very little else to do but write
plays.”

In his experimenting with new
forms of expression for his
works, Mr. Albee revealed a desire to try other medias such as
films and television.
“I would sort of like to investigate films,” he declared, “but
on TV when they do a two-hour
program without interruptions or
without requesting changes, then
it might be time to work on television.”
“I did have a nice time once
with a television producer a
couple of years ago. He asked
me if I’d like to write about anything 1 wanted to write about
for an hour on television in any
form that I wanted to write it.”
“He said: ‘Of course there are
one or two rules we have to follow for this particular program.

There must be three acts in this
hour and they must be a certain
number of minutes and seconds
long. We would like one of them
to take place out of doors. We
would like the male lead to be

between 35 and 40 and two of the
other characters to be certain
ages. And we know that you are
a very depressing playwright, Mr.
Albee, but we would like you to
leave us with a message with just
a slight uplifting in the end.’
”

Why do you tend to present
your female characters in an unfavorable light? “This is a big
bugaboo, that theoretically my

plays have unfavorable protraits
of women; but I don’t think that
they have unfavorable portraits
of men either. And no woman
can
seem
unpleasant unless
there’s a man behind her pushing
her there. So I think it’s the
women who are more noticable
in plays, because we have a theater that is curiously enough female oriented in its stars. The
women in our plays usually have
larger roles than the men do and
so they are just a lot more noticeable, that’s all.”

Perhaps then, these new plays
of yours are an extension of ideas
you've had before?" “I don’t
know if they’re extensions of anything, really. I hope they are an
extension of my craft. I hope that
they are in their own way something a little better than I’ve
done before. And I hope maybe
they can make a few interesting
experiments in trying to expand
theatrical form a little bit.”
“I write plays because that’s
what I do. I enjoy it, I get some
fun out of it, and I find it interesting. I’m not a didactic playwright, I don’t set out consciously to write a thesis play to change
people. Perhaps I write plays
to change me.”
“I write about situations that
I hope will not exist in the future. I find that if you pose questions that you can only answer
during the course of the play,
you’re asking less interesting
questions and you don’t necessarily have the answers to all
the questions you pose,”
“So, I’d much rather pose interesting questions and interesting dilemmas, then only limit
myself to one to which I have
specific answers.”

the title character—at least for
some of those maladjusted types
like myself.
The second major group of
problems developed from committing a cardinal sin in writing
almost anything. Due to a certain
lack of communication I wasn’t
sure if I was to write this review or not, and I went out and
argued about the silly movie. The
result is that what I am about to
present may or may not be my
ideas as they were after I first
came out of the theater. While
basically mine they have been
altered here and there in the process of arguing and new nuances
have been noted in certain areas.
I am not sure this is fair to
the film.
Wide range of responses
“The Graduate” manages to
send many of its viewers out
feeling very good and very happy.
Your gut reaction is that this is
one of the best things that the
“film capital of the world” has
managed to get off its bottom and
do in quite some time. This feeling of euphoria is not universal,
however, and it is at this point
that I begin to have uncritical
qualms.

As mentioned before, I am not
overly sympathetic to critics in
general. As a group we are always trying to tell people what
is good and what is bad, “The

Insipid euphoria?
‘Insipid”—and “depressing’
are two summations of other people’s viewpoints, both of which
are grounded very basically in

the film’s structure and content.
It is very hard to make a movie
about the “upper middle” of this
country’s social structure without
its being insipid. It is equally
difficult to do a film whose major
plot consists of a young man
trying to get society to leave
him alone long enough to catch
his breath, but instead being constantly dumped on, without it
being depressing.
Therefore we have a depressingly insipid flick which causes
euphoria.
Visually it is a pleasure. Nichols is probably the best we have
to offer in the directional field
in the country now, and he is

inventive and fresh in both his

camera work and his use of color.
I thought that all seven of the
basic characters turned in excellent performances.

Lou Rawls to perform

He has been a jazz, pop, gospel and even folk singer, but Lou
Rawls describes himself as a
singer of popular songs with a
touch of blues. Whatever it is
called, though, it still comes out
the same—great.
Rawls is trying to reach everyone, from teeny-booppers to the
more mature audience, and judging by the sales of his three
latest albums Soulin,’ Carryin’ On
and Lou Rawls Live, he is accomplishing what he set out to
do. He remembers one of the
first bistros he worked at when

he stood on a box behind the

the cash register. “Every time

Theatre review

UB's version of 'Ubu Roi'
by Corydon Ireland
Spttrum

Staff

Reporter

Even in the last tremors of my adolescence, I am convinced that all the powers of the world and weather have
been calucuated precisely to embarrass me. I’ve always been
absolutely certain that the seat of my pants is torn asunder
and smiling sideways underwear all over the place. Or that
my fly is perpetually at half-mast.
tation.
All this is exactly why I never

made it as a student actor. It has
occurred to me after neck-straining and ear-aching through dozens
and millions of student productions over the past fifteen years,
the most recent being “Ubu Roi,”
that student performers are the
least likely people to be embarrassed by anything. Even by having to perform in “Ubu Roi.”

Actors in the audience

First of all, least of all, it would

mortify me to be running around
like a berserk Jewel Box Reviewer with my silly little ass, betighted and burlaped and netted,
jouncing all about. Most of all "it
would embarrass me profoundly
to have to skip and dance and
freak around the place doing absolutely nothing and saying even
less even less well, as most of the
peon-role actors did. They sat in

the audience, ushered some latecomers into their places, had
innane sideline conversations,
watched TV, and at one point
made a rush for a guy who had
just gotten up to leave. Probably
just to the bathroom, poor fellow.
All of them were faced with a
play which was, at least on stage,
faultlessly ridiculous. There occurred wide swaths of action in
which the dialogue was either
incomprehensible (the electronic
music was not calculated to help
in this respect) or foolish anyway, and these had to be filled
out with horseplay, most of which
was forced, awkward, and (I secretly Walter Mitty bet) embarrassed, too. Insanity was in the
script, like the word order or
setting, and the nonsense of it all,
refreshing at first, soon weighed
on the nerves. Evidently, I
thought, I wasn’t invited to this
party; I only paid for it.
The play itself, as I read it
later, is an excellent piece of zany
satire and well illustrates Alfred
Jarry’s “contempt for the cruelty
and stupidity of the universe” in
the bumbling, brutal, stupid character of Fere Ubu. Though written in a shockingly realistic new
style for the time (1896), I saw in
some of the mad freewheeling,
striking parallels with the Macbeth, Julius Caesar, Hamlet, and
Tempest of Shakespeare and parts
of Rabelais’ Uninhibited Adven-

As presented, “Ubu Roi” was
an experiment in “total mixed
media environmental theatre,” As
it was, it was totally mixed up,
mediocre and mental theatre.
When I first walked into the
Baird Hall theatre, I was occupied with the idea of total environment theatre, or, as it turned
out to be, the propaganda of it.
The facilities seemed to be ideal
for that kind of experimenting;
the hall is very high-ceilinged and
the seats sweep around the tilted
circular stage in a modest, soft
horseshoe shape. The far wall,
which forms the background for
the stage, reaches impressively
for the ceiling and is pasted up
and down with brown, paintsmeared paper. This is criscrossed with netting of thick rope.
Both the stage and audience are
beset and surrounded by thrillers
and planes and shaky levels of
steel tubing, scaffolding, lights,
and wires. Ten televisions stare
ahead through colored plastic
eyes and surround the stage
broodingly, bulkily. There are
five movie screens high above
the stage, one central. Sitting
there, close together, not a ticket
left to be sold, we are 200 innocent people in a bathtub together,
nervously fingering our washcloth programs, waiting. We are
surrounded, menaced by the geometric nimbus of unsure carpentry and the calculus of a thousand mystifying electronic gadgets. The Blue-up of it all, we
collectively think. We are 200 expectant people.
We are 200 disenchanted people.

Excellent film

The images on the ceiling
screens showed an array of movie
cuts and slides which changed
continuously. If any at all, these
cuts had little to do with what
was going on down on the stage,
except to express generalized
emotions about general things—love, death, struggle, quest. Often
these same screens were filled
with intricate designs meant, I’m
sure, for contemplation and not
casual glancing. When not full of
scratches or static or patterned
nothingness, the television screens
were glass mouthfuls of waving
hands, or chalk board words, or
rolling, clothed male bodies in

silent orgy.
At intervals during the play,
the audience had been dusted
with newspaper shreds, ping pong
balls and other harmless garbage.
But at the near-end of the performance, the audience was literally swamped with bags and huge
bags of paper shreds by the players. There were fields of it, seas
of it, cartfuls of these paper cat
hairs, and it got down your
clothes and up your nose and you
left that way. Though they were
expected to, the audience did not
fight back much. They were not
really invited to that party.

The 'friendly Food Service

service

Reporter

With the war in Vietnam, the near war
in Korea and God knows where else, it is
easy to overlook the minor war going on
each and every day between paying board
students, and your friendly, fun-loving
food service. One of the highlights of
every dorm student’s meal hour is the observance of this public service in action.
One of my more vivid personal memories occurred last year during finals week.
Having pulled an all-nighter for an exam,
I inadvertently slept through that evening’s dinner hour (supper is served from
4:30 to 6:30 p.m., those who wish to partake of the main dish are advised to come
early). However, as it happened to be an
exam day, supper was served till around 7
p.m. to accommodate those with exams
ending that hour. I rushed down to the
cafeteria and was giving the checker my
number when I spied my roommate just
leaving. We exchanged a few choice words
as to why she didn’t bother waking me
up, and I proceeded onto the line. “Excuse
me," said our ever-alert food service representative, “did you say you were sleeping?”

A fatal mistake
Thinking she was about to offer some
condolences on the rigors of going to college and taking final exams, or perhaps
that she was taking some kind of sociological survey, I stupidly answered: “Yes.”
“Well then", she said, throwing her
arm between me and food, “you can’t eat
if you’ve been asleep. This is only for
those students who’ve had exams."
Overwhelmed by this clear logic, I stammered something about not seeing the difference—if I had paid my bill, and food
was being served, why I couldn’t eat. This
bit of smart aleck college kid rebuttal
brought forth the apparent Miss Sergeantat-Arms of food service Who popped up
from somewhere screaming: “What do you
mean coming down here when you’ve been
asleep? etc.”
Being only a lowly freshman and not
wishing (at that moment anyway) to cause
the early demise from heart failure of this
upholder of justice, I obediently slinked
off and bought my own dinner.
-

Battery of harrassments
This is only one of a battery of harassmcnts facing the student trying to obtain
his rightful meal. The I.D. card is supposedly all that is required to gain admittance to the dining halls (student numbers
are checked off against a master IBM
sheet), yet in some instances birth certificates, passports, or a notarized list of
distinguishing scars or birthmarks might
be advisable lest the student wish to play
the game of “This Isn’t You.”
“This Isn’t You” requires two players,

represeni

The student leads off in all cases by presenting his or her I.D. card and reciting
student number. The next move is the
food service’s who grabs card, looks up at
the student and down at the card four or
five times, before pronouncing solemnly
“This Isn’t You.” The play returns to the
student on whom the burden of proof of
identity rests. Standard evidence includes:
growth of beard or moustache since picture was taken, dying of hair, cutting of
hair, loss of fifty pounds or more, gain of
fifty pounds or more, removal of eye glasses,

etc.

"This Isn't You"
At this point, student may become irritable and hence produce added credentials to facilitate hasty end to game. In
certain cases an optional play may rest

with the food service representative to
follow opponent into dining hall and de-

i

mand his I.D. card for final check. Food
Service scores three additional points for
each student it, interrogates before finding
one in question. Object of the game: for
student to eat his meal; for food service
to instill in opponent feeling he is getting
an undeserved handout on the Salvation
Army Line. However the credit for this
frequent meal time diversion and other
pleasantries of the dining halls, really lies

not with the food service employees, but
rather with their higher-ups, as even the
cafeteria ladies themselves have on occasion been observed being berated by
some authority for taking an extra portion,
etc.
The food service is also extremely cordial when it comes to time considerations.
I doubt if Fort Knox closes up so tight or
so fast as does the food service come the
appointed minute. Last year, upon returning from a Chemistry hourly at approximately 6:35 p.m. my friend and I were
told that we couldn’t be served. Previously, the Chemistry Department had always
called on hourly days to keep the dining
halls open till 7, but that day apparently
somebody goofed. This was rather annoying as it wasn’t a question of lack of food,

or

rather throw out food than give it to a
paying student, even if she is three minutes late?
Yet this philosophy is rather in keeping with some of their other ideas on
food. For example, nothing can be removed from the dining halls, not even
cookies or doughnuts. The reasons for this
are rather hazy, amounting to something
about fear of food spoilage in the rooms.

In fact, the most infamous of all food

stems from the food

poisoning issue, I am referring, of course,
to the notorious shrimp caper of ’66 in
which more than 300 students became
quite ill with food poisoning from a
shrimp dinner served in the cafeteria.
Since that time, though, numerous precautions have been taken to insure against
a similar occurrence.

Precautions since the shrimp
Aside from a sizeable changeover in
food temperatures are now
taken upon arrival and three times during service. Hot foods must be at least
150° and cold items 45° or under. In
addition, plastic gloves are now used by
personnel when handling food. Also, samples of all food served are kept in refrigeration for 72 hours afterwards, so that
should another epidemic ever occur again,
it will be possible to pinpoint its exact
cause. Currently, the food service is trying to institute a preventive program with

food would be checked before service to
stop an epidemic rather than detect the
cause of one.
Never let it be said that the food
service is without a sense of humor either.
Last year, some jovial board students
switched the menu sign above the seconds
table in Goodyear Cafeteria to read “Shit,"
a description considered synonymous to
the actual by many. Soon after some
girls approached the lady serving seconds.
“May we have some shit, please?” they

asked nicely enough. Like the good sports
they are, food service hauled in the two
for questioning. One of the brighter moments of last year’s dining season.

The wrong line
Goodyear Cafeteria, with which I am
most familiar, is composed of three main
classes of board students: boys from Allenhurst, girls from Clement, and the
Goodyear Hall girls. These three all have
different lines, a separation which closely
parallels the Indian caste system with
respect to inter-class mobility. For example, the Clement line can be backed up
onto Bailey Ave, before the Allenhurst
line personnel will permit its sanctity to
be invaded by the maurauding girls from
Clement Hall. On these rare occasions,
one must be sure to obtain the permission
of the food service representative to par-

take of Allenhurst food. Earlier this year,
I and a few of my friends made the fatal
blunder of taking things into our own
hands, and leaving the tail end of the
Clement line (where, from our vantage
point, it looked like we might not make
it to the kitchen before closing) and stepping onto the Allenhurst line, where
there was not a boy in sight as the time
was between buses.
About half way
through the line, it dawned on one of
the ladies that we were not Allenhurst
boys at all but those filthy poachers from
Clement Hall out to “take food away from
their boys.”
“You have no right to be on this line,”
she began. “This is for Allenhurst boys.
You have no right to take food away from
our boys,” I thought it expedient at that
point to mention that the Clement line
was by this time inching up on Williamsville and there was not a boy in sight
here, so why couldn’t we eat. This bit of
reasoning did not sway the food service
lady, ever-loyal to “her boys.” It didn’t
matter that the food was just being distributed in different places, that is, no
matter where we got it, we weren’t taking
anything away from Allenhurst. “I don’t
ever want to see your faces on this line
again,” the food service lady persisted.

“Well, don’t you think it’s a pretty
stupid system?” I asked
by this time
having accumulated a little more gump—

tion since the run-in in my freshman year.

“Many things in life are stupid,” she
said gravely. “You have to learn to live

with that.”
Philosophy lesson for the day.
It was about this time I decided I
would break my board contract. If food
service didn’t want “to see my face around
ever again,” I could certainly live without seeing theirs. Not surprisingly, I have
survived rather well minus the friendly
atmosphere and good food, generously provided by your local neighborhood food
service.

The tournament-bound fencing
Bulls finished the season with a
flourish, first trouncing Hobart
19-8 at Geneva Wednesday. The
Bulls Saturday punished Culver
Military Academy by the same
margin and Brock University 18-9,
in a triangular meet at Clark
Gym.

Senior captain Jon Rand made
his regular season finale an impressive one, winning all six of
his saber bouts. Ed Share also
tok six saber bouts as the Bulls
rolled over Brock in that weapon 7-2 and Culver 6-3,

The epee trio rocked Brock 8-1
and whipped Culver 7-2 as Steve
Morris, Tony Walluk, and Bruce
Renner each copped five of their
six bouts.
The foil three some beat Culver
6-3, but bowed to Brock 5-4 as
George Wirth and Pierre Chanteau went unblemished against
Culver. Chanteau took two of his
three bouts against Brock.

Sweet victory
The victory over Hobart was

a
particularly sweet one for the
Bull?, as it avenged a 14-13 de-

feat suffered earlier in the season. Rand, Morris, Renner, Walluk and Wirth each won all three
of their bouts in the rout. Ed
Share took two with Jim Ellenbogen and Herb Sanford each adding a tally. The frosh whipped
Hobart 16-9.

The Bulls,

finishing the regular
season with a 12-6 log, will journey to Rochester tomorrow to

Intercollegiate Fencing Championships, seeking the Swashbucklers’ eighth team championship
since the tournament was first
held in 1951. Head Coach Sid
Schwart will enter two men in
each weapon: Rand and Share in

or Renner in epee, and George

Wirth and Pierre Chanteau in

The Bulls’ opposition will consist of Cornell, Syracuse, RIT,
Drew, Jersey City State, St. Peters, Pace, Patterson State, Johns
Hopkins and Seton Hall. The
competition is expected to be
stiff, requiring a big effort if the
Swashbucklers are to improve
considerably over last year’s lackluster ninth place finish.
Quizzed about his team's
chances, coach Schwartz replied:
“We’re sending six really solid
men and will be a definite threat
in the tournament. If we’re on,
we have a real good shot at taking it all.”
The competition will become
even more rigorous as the fencing Bulls will travel to Detroit

Coach Kd Muto’s freshman basketball squad has enjoyed a ter
rific season.
The Baby Bulls finished with an
amazing 13-4 record while facing
the toughest seventeen game
schedule in the University’s history, And the Mutomen set several individual and team records
along the route.
Included among the victories
were two over the Canisius yearlings, two wins over Niagara and
two wins over rival Buffalo State.
The Baby Bulls sustained two
of their four losses to St. Bonaventure. They lost once to Niagara Community College, who
eventually became league champions of State community colleges,
and took a loss at Syracuse early
in the season.
The Baby Bulls went over the
100-point mark three times in
scoring an average of 83.6 points
per game, a new record. They hit
their high mark of 109 in beating Buffalo State in the last
game of the season. The Bulls
had racked up 101 points against
the State frosh earlier this season.

As a team the Bulls shot 46%
from the field for the season and

ed up second best

66% mark from the free throw
line. They outrebounded their opposition by a wide margin, 45.1
per game to 31.0, and scored 1422
points to the opposition’s 1296.

Timon High School graduate
Roger Kremblas was the most
consistent player on the squad.
Kremblas, at 6-2, averaged 12.5
points per game, shot 46% from
the field and finished with nearly seven rebounds a game. He
scored more consistently in the
double figures than anyone on
the team and was the steadying
influence when things got a little tight.

Steve Waxman, a six-foot, fiveinch center and forward from
Kenmore West, set several records. His 348 points and 20.4 per
game average were both high
marks as was his rebound average of 13 per game. In addition
he averaged four assists per contest.

possession of “hallucinogenic
drugs (including LSD) and other
depressant and stimulant drugs"
a misdemeanor and “illegal man-

ufacture and traffic” and “possession for sale” of such drugs a
felony.

The House Subcommittee on
Public Health and Welfare completed hearings on the bill in
early March. Although the sub
committee had not yet scheduled
action on the bill, it is almost
certain to be passed, and possibly in an even stronger form.
All but one of the subcommittee
members have said they favor
the bill.

Rough going in

Senate

It may face slightly rougher
going in the Senate. At a series
of hearings this week, members

cy Subcommittee appeared sympathetic to arguments that laws

for possession of drugs, especially
marjiuana, are unenforceable and
that the penalties ought to be
lessened or completely eliminated.

Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (Dquestioned how effective
the government’s “education program” on drugs could be when
the laws on marijuana and LSD
are so inequitable,
Dr. James Goddard, commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, described an extensive “education program” in
drugs being run by his department. Sen. Kennedy responded:
“I think we need more study before we can develop an effective
educational program. LSD is 100
times more dangerous than marijuana, yet we have a lesser penalty for it. In light of those inequities, do you think young
people will pay any attention to
an educational program?”
“I don’t believe they will,” replied Dr. Goddard, who has often
expressed doubts about penalties
for the possession of marijuana.
Mass.)

Laws unenforceable
Two educators who appeared
before the subcommittee argued

that the present laws against
marijuana arc unenforceable
Dean Helen Nowlis, director of
the drug education project of the
National Association of Student
Personnel Administrators, told
the committee that criminal penalties for possession of marijuana
should be removed.

She said, however, that she was
against legalization of marijuana
until more research could be
done on it.

Afraid
She also expressed the fears
of many deans and administrators
about the tactics used by law
enforcement officials in cases
such as the police raid on the
State University of Stony Brook:
“The great majority of students,
teachers, and administrators find
many widely used enforcement
techniques both repulsive and
disruptive. Undercover agents, informers, invasion of privacy, tap-

ped telephones are an anomoly
in a situation where we are desperately trying to substitute inner
controls for outside control, to
foster individual and group responsibility, to encourage mature
behavior by expecting mature be-

havior.”

Not all girl’s stuff “covers up.” Here’s one product that does more
PAMPRIN.

PAMPRIN makes a woman look and feel better . . . without relying on
“camouflage.” PAMPRIN is specifically designed to get at a basic
cause of pre-menstrual problems. Problems of temporary water-weight
gain. That puffy feeling that can make you feel miserable the week
before your period. (It’s that extra water-weight causing pressure on
tissues that makes for headaches and pre-menstrual tension.)

PAMPRIN does what aspirin doesn’t. It alleviates the “bloating.” So it
gets at the cause of the pain. Instead of justcovering it up. PAMPRIN
makes a woman feel more like a woman. Every day of. the month. So
every coed can live life a little bit better. Now that PAMPRIN is going
to college.

Congress resists troop buildup
WASHINGTON
President Johnson,
engaged in a wide-ranging review of Vietnam policy and strategy, finds that he
faces mounting congressional resistance

before making any major decisions. But
virtually all members emphasized serious

levels in the war zone.
During their more than

bers were demanding a reassessment of
U.S. policy in Southeast Asia before any
major escalation is undertaken. Rep. Paul
Findley (R.-Ill.) said he had obtained 120
co-sponsors
about one-quarter of the
House’s 433 membership for his resolution
calling for a reappraisal of the 1964 Gulf
of Tonkin Resolution
A resolution introduced by Rep. William Moorhead, (D.-Pa„) opposing the sending of any additional troops to Vietnam,
picked up a score of co-sponsors.
Just how much effect the nationally
televised and broadcast display of frustration and discontent evident in the Senate hearings would have on Johnson’s
ultimate decisions probably depended to
some extent on the President’s assessment
of how accuratsly it represented general

11 hours of

questioning of Secretary of State Dean
Rusk, members of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee underlined the anguish and uncertainty of many Americans
regarding the wisdom of becoming more
heavily involved in the inconclusive
struggle.
The President’s initial answer to the
committee’s challenge was to condemn

it is unpayable.”

put the spotlight on Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy, but the shadow was being cast
by Sen. Robert F, Kennedy.
“I’m reassessing the possibility of whether I will run against President Johnson,”
Kennedy said after a hard look at McCarthy’s 42% share of the New Hampshire
Democratic vote.
Although Johnson scoffed at the interpretation of a 40% vote as a victory, the
Minnesota Senator’s showing obviously
impressed more than his partisans. Kennedy’s statement was ample evidence of
that.
McCarthy took the news of Kennedy’s
statement with aplomb. He said “a lot
of politicians are reassessing in view of
last night’s vote.”

Fighting rages
There was no immediate official report
on the rioting in Krakow, about 155 miles
south-southwest of Warsaw. But informed
western sources said the center of the
city was sealed off and police and students were fighting at mid-afternoon.
Witnesses said about 3,000 students
from the University of Krakow, founded
in 1364 by Pope Urban V, massed in a

park and

then formed ranks for the?
march in sympathy with their colleagues
in Warsaw.
The students carrieid posters saying

WARSAW
A wave of student unrest
swept over more Polish cities this week
with thousands of youths battling riot
police in the streets of the ancient university city of Krakow in southern Poland.
The Krakow clash erupted during a
march in support of fellow students in
Warsaw, scene of similar violence during
the past few days. Sympathy demonstrations also were reported in Poznan,
Gdansk and Lublin.
Steel-helmeted police patrolled the
streets of Warsaw during the day while
about 8,000 students met with university
authorities to press their demands for
more student freedoms and civil liberties.
Informants said the battle began when
police tried to stop students marching
on the university and spread to the old
section of the city where fighting lasted
several hours.
Reports said peaceful meetings were
held in sympathy with the Warsaw students in Glicice, Lodz and Wroclaw.

solace to his backers.

Kennedy’s announcement took some of
the edge off the impending confrontation
in Wisconsin. It is too late for the New
York Democratic Senator to get on the
Wisconsin ballot, but if he decides to
oppose Johnson, the gathering of Vietnam
War critics around McCarthy obviously
would be shaken.
The next ballot on which Kennedy’s
name could appear would be for the
Nebraska “all star” test May 14. Kennedy
earlier asked state officials to keep him

off that ballot, blit the secretary of state
has until March 15 to arbitrarily list the
Senator as a candidate. That is also the
last date on which Kennedy could formally
disclaim his candidacy in Nebraska.
In Lincoln, officials said Kennedy’s aides
in Washington had informed them that the
Senator did not want to be placed on the
Nebraska ballot. Secretary of State Frank
Marsh said he would honor Kennedy’s
wish.
He is in a somewhat different position
in the May 28 Oregon primary., As of
now, Kennedy is listed as a candidate
and has until March 22 to file a disclaimer removing it.
As McCarthy’s New Hampshire feat introduced a new ferment into the Demo
cratic presidential situation, Richard M.
Nixon got a tighter grip on the leadership for the Republican nomination.
As a formal and active candidate, he
ran up an 8-to-l margin over Gov. Nelson
A. Rockefeller of New York, a write-in
candidate whose supporters had hoped
their man’s name would make up in part
for a tardy, sketchy campaign.
Pressure on Rocky
The GOP outcome put more pressure
on Rockefeller to decide whether he will
continue to rely on a draft to beat Nixon
or enter full force into the campaign.
Rockefeller’s most crucial decision falls
due on the same date as Kennedy’s
whether to let his name remain on the
Oregon ballot. Rockefeller already has
withdrawn from Nebraska.

Evers loses in Ole Miss
JACKSON, Miss.
A staunchly conservative Democrat, Charles Griffin, easily
defeated Negro leader Charles Evers in a
runoff for Congress that featured balloting almost strictly along racial lines.
It was the strongest showing this century by a Negro candidate for major
political office in Mississippi, and Evers
called it “a history-making occasion.”
Griffin, 41, was named to succeed his
boss of 18 years, now Gov. John Bell
Williams, as representative -of Mississippi’s Third Congressional District, where
white voter outnumber Negro voters 125,000 to 70,000.
Almost complete returns in the 12county district gave Griffin, Williams’
former congressional aide, 85,039 votes
to 42,684 for Evers, Mississippi’s foremost
Negro civil rights leader.

secretary for the National Association for

white candidates in a primary. But observers correctly predicted Griffin would
pick up the votes cast for the other can
didates in the followup voting.
Griffin, in his victory statement, pledged
to “provide all the people of our district
with dignified, honorable representation
at the national level.”
Evers saw encouragement in his defeat
and indicated he might try again for the
seat in the November general election.
Griffin will serve the remaining nine and
one-half months of Williams’ term.
“The mere fact that we were able to
get Negroes involved is a victory for us,"
Evers said. “The mere fact that we
stopped our opponent from running a
racist campaign shows a victory for us.”

Thursday looms as the showdown date in the wage dispute between the 155,000member Civil Service Employees Association and the State of New York. Unless a settlement can be reached on the upgrading of salaries of 28,000 clerical-employees in the state
and in local school districts, a state-wide strike is threatened.
If it occurs, the strike would be a “disruptive action” unprecedented in the Civil
Service organization’s 57-year history, and would effectively shutdown the entire State University system.
There are approximately 1500 members of CSEA at this University, and, according
to Edward Dudek, president of the local chapter, most would be willing to comply with the
strike tactic.
“The fever is rather high,” ations bogged down. He emphaclaim as the sole representative

A 'virus' walkout?
One employee, who chose to
withhold his name, said the
“strike” would most probably
take the form of a massive
“virus” epidemic, and would be
“symbolic”-—that is, for a specific
length of time, probably two days
to a week.
Mr. Dudek, a mechanic/technician in the Materials Lab,, Parker Engineering, added that if a
strike were to occur, it “would
not be a total shutdown.”
What he termed “certain necessary things,” such as the heating
plant, would not be involved in
the work halt, because of the
danger involved.
He did add, however, that a
walkout’s effect on other important but perhaps not absolutely
necessary aspects of the University,—the Hayes Annexes, for example—would be “very disruptive.”

Mr. Dudek said he could not

The significance of using waiver cards to facilitate the new voluntary fee system has been explained by Mr. William H. Calhoun, State University of Buffalo

Bursar.
To alleviate

the problem of
misunderstanding a student’s intentions, he said, authorization in
the form of a voluntary fees card
is necessary before money can
be alotted to athletics or student

activities.
Mr. Calhoun explained that as
an

accounting

procedure,

stu-

dents are charged at the beginning of the semester only for
basic fees. If the student decides
not to pay the voluntary fees, his
account remains the same. If he
agrees to pay either fee, the
charge is then added to his account, Students who do not return the voluntary fees card are
sent cards a second time by the
bursar’s office in hopes that they
will be returned at this time.
Sometimes a student sends in
money intended for activities or
athletics, but does not sign the
voluntary fees card. That money

is credited to the student’s account; the various student activities do not receive the money
in this situation. In this way, the
accounting department is assured
against allotting money without
specific authorization by a student, according to the Bursar.
Mr. Calhoun further explained
that the advantages of fees are
given to the Student Association
as often

as possible.

If a student

first decides not to pay the voluntary fees and then changes his
mind, the fee may be paid and
alotted.
On the other hand,
agrees to pay the

if a 'student
fees and
changes his mind, this request
will not be honored by the Bursar’s Office, for the student has
possibly taken advantage of the
various activities. This latter
change can be made, however,
by a request to the Student Association.
All students who haven’t sent
in the voluntary fees card are
urged by Mr. Calhoun to do so.
Cards are available at the Bursar’s Office in Hayes Annex, and
on Fridays in the basement of
Foster Hall where I.D. cards are
validated.

Booklet to be released Supi sought
givingcourse information Draft Resistance Union holds forum
)tf

by

In an effort to make the academic curriculum “more
responsive and relevant to today’s students,” a Student
Course and Teacher Evaluation (to be called the “Buffalo
Scate”) has been completed here by a Student Association
committee.
Based on the results of last
semester’s questionnaires, the
study will go on sale in booklet
form Monday in Norton Hall.

365 courses reviewed
The 196-page study of 365
courses was conducted for undergraduate daytime students in
three Faculties. The first part of
the study was completed by the

professors in these Faculties
Social Seienes, Mathematics and

—

Natural Sciences, and Arts and
Letters in the form of a fact
—

sheet.
The fact sheet contains information about the number and
type of exams given during the
semester, the system for deriving
grades and the content of the
course.
The

part is concerned
with the response that students
made to the IBM questionnaire
Dec. 14 and 15. The percentage
of studertts that responded to
each question on the form is indicated. As a general indication

seflond

of the attendance pattern, the
number of students registered
in the course and those present
at the time the evaluation was
conducted is also recorded.

Representative comments
Geri

Goldstein conducted

the

study along with co-chairmen
Penny Bergman and Harvel Organck. Miss Goldstein considers
the third section of the course
evaluation the most important.
This part is a reproduction of
students comments on courses

and instructors. Those responses
that were the most representative
were selected.
All comments
made by students have been

sent to the appropriate profes-

This is the first time a study
of this kind has been successfully

conducted at the University. Miss
Goldstein hopes that through ad-

vertising revenue from businesses
in the Buffalo area enough funds
will be obtained to make The
Scafe a self-sufficient, bi-annual
publication. After obtaining Administration approval, $4000 was
contributed to the project by the
Master
University
Subvention
Fund in addition to $2500 from

the Student Association.
Miss Goldstein mentioned that

when presented with the idea
of a student course evaluation,
the Administration reacted enthusiastically. She expressed particular gratitude to the Provosts
for their cooperation.

Help is needed

Aside from financial obstacles,
encountered difficulties within the University itself.
She noted that more people were
needed to help organize the information taken from the thousands of completed questionThe Scate

naires.

Students didn't seem to take
the evaluation too seriously, she
commented, because “they didn’t
know where it was going, perhaps fearing it was for the faculty member; also, IBM antagonizes
people.”

Miss Bergman commented on
the advantages of the booklet:
’’Before The Scate, the only way
a student could know about a
course before he registered for
it was through the grapevine.
Often he would sign up for a
course in ignorance and then be
disappointed. The Scate formalizes the grapevine by presenting
the opinions of students regard
ing their courses and teachers,
“Although it is not a cure-all,
the chaos of Drop and Add day

and the confusion of pre-registration will be lessened. Although
the evaluations can be greatly re-

fined and sophisticated, the book
is valuable in that it is a giant
step toward academic reform.”

Campus security funds needed
ALBANY (GNS)
Additional
funds to beef up campus security
forces to cope with student demonstrations, drugs and general
unrest is the Slate University’s
"most urgent need,” Chancellor
Samuel B. Gould told the Senate
Finance and Assembly Ways and
Means Committee hearings on
the University's budget.
—

He said that “the real need”
was for additional personnel and
that he was planning to make a
specific request for funds totalling $975,000 in the supplemental
budget.

“When something serious occurs on a campus, the blame falls
on us,” the Chancellor said in
pointing out he had been requesting additional help since 1965 but
that his requests had annually
been refused.
He also said that he had been
pressing in vain to upgrade col
lege security and safety forces
whose salaries range from $4725
for a patrolman to roughly $6000
for a security chief in a large
campus center.

Contrasts Buffalo, Cornell
He contrasted the force at privately operated Cornell University numbering 82 at salaries
ranging from $5000 for a watchman to $17,600 for a director to
the State University of Buffalo
which has comparable personnel
of 44 earning from $3645 to
$7980.

He noted that Buffalo’s problems in an urban area with 20,795

full or part
time students are
much greater than Cornell’s with
14.752 students and on a more
-

compact campus in a much smaller city.

Questioned about funds for an
expanded central Administration,
the Chancellor cited as one of his
major needs an associate dean
who would be responsible for dir
ecling the force of resident asmostly graduate stusistants
dents
who hold supervisory
responsibilities in dormitories.

"This whole field needs exploring.” Hr, Gould explained. “The
host students don't always want
to take this type of work. You’re
always in trouble when someone
lias to serve as in informer.”

“Perhaps the trouble' is that
problems today are more
complex and 20-year-olds aren’t
equipped to deal with them,” added Dr. Harry W. Porter, Provost.
the

Asked about the expected impact on the draft, Dr. Gould said
there was little to go on but that
he foresaw the possibility that
among males 407: of the graduate students, from 70 to 80 r; of
the agricultural and technical institute students and 50 r,r of the
community college students might

be called.
He pleaded with the committees

not to make budget cuts in faculty and staff for w'hat might be
a very temporary situation and

An open meeting to gain support for the Buffalo Draft Resist-

panel, moderated by Bill Maryl,
will assess the current political

situation in Vietnam and discuss
the campus-wide strike called
for March 19 to 21.
The agenda for the 7:30 p.m.
meeting includes four presentations:
•

Sidney Will-

“University of Buffalo and

“Strike for Knowledge—Stop

Robert Hass, and
“The Buffalo Draft Resistance Union” by Robert Cohen,
•

•

graduate student in Philosophy,
The open discussion following
the panel will focus on crucial issues. Intellegent political action
is initiated through “understanding of the various political forces
at play,” Mr. Cohen said.

Trained corps
The Draft Desistance Union
was organized in the Buffalo

area about

a month ago as a
movement “not to restore the 2-S
but to see that no American is
drafted,” he said.

A trained corps of about 20
counsellors are prepared to offer all types of alternatives to induction: including conscientious
objection, problems of migration
to Canada, medical and psychological excuses and explain the
intricasies of the Selective Service System.
Mr. Cohen believes that the
Union will “substitute collective
rational and well-thought action
for individual groping around.”

Graduate students became in-

volved, he explained, because the

recent Selective Service decision
“brought th war to the ooorsteps
of the University.”

Through information services,
it is hoped that smaller versions
of the draft union will be established in dormitories, fraternities and other living units. A
statement distributed by Draft
Union members called for “complete draft information, frequent
discussions and soul sessions to
plan appropriate small-scale actions.”

"Future mortgaged"
The statement included this
“Until recently, we
could still be students, safe in
our educational retreat preparing for careers in the Sheltered
Society. We can no longer think
in these terms . . . Our lives are
no longer our own, our future
mortgaged to the needs of Amercomment:

ica’s militai
During the campus-wide “Strike
for Knowledge-Stop the War”
scheduled for March 19 to 21, the
Union will hold a number of
panel discussions with University
and guest speakers on the draft,
the military situation in Vietnam,
the Report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders, black power, and the antiwar movement.

Expansion planned
The

Draft Resistance

Union

will eventually expand into the
Buffalo community, establishing

similar informational centers.
Anti-draft and war protests among
high school students will be supported.

Mr. Cohen explained that the
Union will not take a “middle
class position,” but encourage all
classes to resist participation “in
the reptilian war in Vietnam.”

Similar resistance unions have
been organized throughout the
country and involve thousands of
students. Mr. Cohen previously
worked with a state-wide organization in Wisconsin which had
branches in nine colleges and
universities.

Members of the Draft Resist-

ance Union are currently circulating a petition which explains its
activities of counselling and draft
resistance “as an affirmative of
loyalty (to the country) because
they aim at redeeming rather
than smothering human potentiality here in the United States
and around the world.”

VISTA to hold recruiting drive in
Norton; panel discussion to be held
Volunteers in Service to America (VISTA) will hold a recruiting drive March 18 through 22.
Tables will be set up in Norton
Hall where students may obtain
applications and ask questions
of the VISTA volunteers.
A panel on the VISTA program
will be held at 3 p.m. tomorrow.
Panelists will include Dr. Frank

into already existing organizations, working on specific issues
and immediate problems of their
community. These issues usually
center around housing, education
and legal services as a major
means to eliminating poverty.

VISTA’s goal is to get organ

izational structures set up in order for people to become better

The Academic Affairs Committee and the Ranking and Grading

Henry Chaikin and Daryl Rosenfeld, have been trying to stimulate students to meet with the

are students. They recently completed a comprehensive report on
proposed revisions in the grading system. They expect that
many of the proposals will be
put into effect by the fall term,
notably the new Pass-Fail system.

Independent Union
The third and most recentlyformed group is the All Academic
Union. Completely independent
and somewhat informal in nature, its organizers, Steve Halpern
and Danny Rosenthal, are trying
to establish a powerful radical
force. In Mr. Halpern’s words, it

all know it. Yet there seems to be
no desire to try to coordinate
efforts.
Mr, Chaikin's goal is to open
channels of communication between faculty and students. His
committee has achieved success

in the Anthropology, Philosophy,
Geography and Psychology Departments. Students have already
formed a faculty-recognized advisory committee in the Psychology Department. Mr. Chaikin is
still faced with the problem of
negative student response; “Nobody from the Math or Engineering Departments has contacted
me. We can’t mobilize students
without knowing who they are.
You can’t be a watchdog. If students are stimulated then they

will take interest.”

Two points of attack

in Vietnam.
“I am convinced,” he said Monday, that North Vietnam torpedo
boats on American destroyers in- the gulf. Two days after the
second of two reported Communist attacks, U.S. planes raided North
Vietnamfor the first time.
Rusk and some of the administration’s bitterest Vietnam War
critics clashed in an atmosphere of high drama at a hearing of the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee, headed by Sen. J. William Ful-

bright (D„ Ark.)

An anticipated clash between Rusk and Fulbright came quickly
after Fulbright accused administration officials of giving the Senate
an “untrue” version of the Aug. 2 and 4, 1964, Tonkin incidents in
order to get approval of wider war authority for President Johnson,
Fulbright said the North Vietnamese, knowing the administration story was false, may well have concluded to carry out more
attacks no matter what the United States did.
Rusk rejected this line of argument. He also took strong issue
with a Fulbright statement that the administration had incited the
Communists to further adventures in Southeast Asia.

WASHINGTON
The Supreme Court has upheld an order
requiring desegregation of all prisons and jails in Alabama.
—

The state had urged a modification to assure wardens that
they had reasonable discretion to separate Negroes and whites when
safety demanded it.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) argued that this

Dec. 12, 1966.
The over all order required immediate desegregation of honor
farms, youth centers, hospitals and educational programs. It allowed
six months for integration of jails and minimum security institutions
and a year for maximum security prisons.

Mr. Chaikin respects the All
Academic Union. In referring to
them he said: “The difference between us is that they oppose the
Administration from outside the
structure. It makes for two different points of attack. It’s hard
for me to disassociate myself. I
can’t work with the administrators and then attack them.”
Mr. Halpern agrees: “A lot of
good stuff is going on in the system. It takes years though. They
are an advisory group, nothing
is done about what they recom-

mend.

“The purpose of education is

to stimulate and guide our self-

development, not hinder or mold
it to other’s preconceptions. The
interested students want an equal
voice. If the rest of the students
don't care, forget them, ignore
them.”

Diverse issues
The Union’s demands now focus
on a number of issues. One is
the pending dismissal of William
Harrell, a professor in the Sociology Department. Mr. Halpern
and others in the Union feel his
firing was unjust and that Mr.
Harrell is indeed one of the best

A second topic of Union concern is the proposed accreditation

see this idea implemented by the

A faculty awakened

Before the Faculty Senate of this University took their
unprecedented stand against the Vietnam War Friday, most
students had pretty well given up the idea of looking to the
in the face America’s most blind stnrggterfaculty
Indeed, before the votes were cast, representatives of
the Graduate Student Association and Student Association
condemned the faculty and administration “for their silence
in the face of the moral and political bankruptcy of the war.”
A silence, so it was said, that had continued unbroken until
the latest National Security Council decision threatened the
very existence of the university.
There are some faculty members who have spoken out
against the war since its inception; there are others who have
been complacent to look on from the confines of their ivory
towers and sparkling labs, saying nothing. Both groups were
heard at Friday’s meeting; there was great division. For
some, the truth of America’s misordered priorities, the truth
of her moral bankruptcy, the truth of the horror that is Vietnam, has been slow to reach home.
What seems important now is that we, not as just students, or as just faculty members or administrators—but we

Legal aid through JudiCorps
Richard “Max” McCarthy, congressman from the 39th
District, has introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives which could go a long way to provide needed legal
aid to indigent citizens. He terms the program the JudiCorps,
The basic concept of the JudiCorps lies in the employment of law school students, under the direction of faculty
and interested lawyers, to provide legal services for the
underprivileged and poor.
Mr. McCarthy’s proposal, while giving law students practical experience, will enable the poor to stand trial with the
benefit of counsel in criminal cases, and allow them to prossecute civil suits which they normally would have to forego
because of inadequate funds.
We believe that law students will provide this legal service, as Mr. McCarthy said, “with the same vigorous spirit
and high motivation as the Peace Corps.” Since no student
could represent more than one client at a time, it is very
likely that the legal aid given would surpass any aid that
those with insufficient funds could otherwise obtain.
We commend Mr. McCarthy for an excellent proposal
and hope that Congress will approve the JudiCorps. Every
citizen must have access to legal aid. The JudiCorps can give
the poor and indigent a reassurance of the effectiveness of
our legal and juridical processes in providing redress of
grievances.

“That's terrible!" I gasped. "Do you mean you

“Sometimes you have to wreck a whole ballroom

This column is an attempt to give a clear reason
for joining the Strike For Knowledge on March
17. 18, and 19. This is not a statement from the
organizers; it is my viewpoint.
The present structure of the University system
in the United Slates and the present role of the
University, as carried out by the faculty and students, is maintenance of American society. One
must, in order to be a good educator, question what
he should be teaching students, given the historical
period in which we live. What responsibility does
the teacher owe to himself and, finally, his students? Clearly, at present, the academic community and “academics" as a concept is divorced from
the heart of what America is. I asked a professor
of a law course here last week to comply with the
Strike and his response was that he owed his 114
students not only his attendance, but also a rather
strict interpretation of what they expected would be
the subject matter for the course.
He could not, in fact, find a way to bring the
domestic implications of the Vietnam war into a
discussion of law, without overbounding what he
thought the subject matter for the course should
be. It is precisely this logic that, has led the
United States to where it is and it is this logic
which, I contend, will lead to other destruction. The
University every year puts out “good”, citizens
as its contribution to society. For that, the University is rewarded handsomely. This “good” citizen
is of the mentality, of course, to accept the law as
the law, right or wrong. This “good” citizen is of
the mentality to kill for his country even though
he believes that death is an act of murder. It is
this University which produces these citizens. This
country needs, probably more critically than any
other country in the world, to change. It needs
its citizens to become morally conscious.

For a University to know this and not do anything about it is immoral and, incidentally, suicidal.
We are a nation of crazy men, and part of our
mania is our ability to sit in a sinking ship, watch
the water fill gradually, getting fuller, faster
each day, having a chance to reach out for a
branch, and smile as we pretend that it really isn’t
happening. It is happening! We must recognize
that. If the University continues to function in its
traditional role, it will be, analogously, smiling and
pretending.
Does a professor have the right to teach his students to think about the things their society is
doing before they accept them? Does he have
the right? What kind of a person is he if he
teaches anything less? Must he consider what the
student had in mind about subject matter before
deviating from the curriculum? There are different obligations which must be met before any of
us have a right to be called a man. One of them is
not doing your “job” in lieu of acting upon your
conscience. We should now let all the world know,
we can no longer sleep well.
It gets harder and harder to write this each
1 am trying to change the consciousness of
people who don’t care. I don’t know what to do.
Someone the other day told me that he doesn’t
know a single person FOR the war, but “some are
more practical than others.” Of course, in the
next sentence, he told me that he’ll fight when
called. The immoral people are those that go, and
know better. If you believe that the policy being
pursued by the United States is anything less than
just, if not genocidal, and you aid that war, you
don’t deserve much. You are, as defined by Nuremberg, but far more importantly, as defined by
reason, a murderer—nothing less!
week.

Imagine the injustice the Chemistry Department

is committing when they produce simply “good"
citizens. All the other departments are equally

guilty of this insanity if they do not attempt to
produce morally conscious graduates. Try to picture the murder and blood and bombs in a small
country which you, to a certain extent, condone
and aid. So, we should not in any sense allow
business to go on as usual. We cannot afford to;
if we do, it means that we don’t want, in any way,
to change things. There is a myth floating around
in most of our minds that to act righteously when
the “important” things happen is sufficient. Not
only is this not true, but “important” things just
don’t ever really happen. We must make things
important.

Everyday we are being used, everyday it surrounds us. Precisely because it is so big—many of
us miss it. But big things don’t happen—little ones
do. All the time. We forget, and besides, “if 1 did
that one, why not do this one—it really doesn’t
mean much, and no one will know.”

But it does hurt, it hurts you, your country,
There is nothing wrong with admitting previous errors; there is nothing inconsistent with doing something wrong one day and
right the following day. We only commit wrong
when we are conscious that we are committing
wrong. Get conscious!

The Spectrum

Page Eight

An evening with Allen Ginsberg:
A change of pace? Oh wow!

Theatre review

Albee's Box-Mao-Box
by Richard Perlmutter

.

Spectrum

Theater

Reviewer

by Corydon Ireland

but his newest creation “Box*Mao»Box” is a large step in the
sour direction.
The highly publicized Studio Arena production, which
had its world premier here Wednesday evening, is not a total
waste of time

After a while the no-meter mesmerized me into counting sheep
instead of swear words. When my
head wasn’t lolling and bucking
to the tune of my own z’s and, I
imagined, a chorus of others, I
had time to notice the pertinent
details. The curtain that stretched
across the poet’s back was tall
and wide, like corrugated velvet
faded grey at the arch and, to
my estimation, divided into approximately 247 folds, depending
on the breeze. Seated on the floor
in front of the stage were six
mustaches, eight sets of beads,
three cheap cameras, several
cramps, and a full lotus.

long, very long, shimmering silk
scarf, bright orange, hung around
his thick shoulders and pointed
two unsure fingers at his Farmerin-the-Dell dungarees. Just a modest lip of belly hilled over his
black belt, and a wide, blue patterned ’30s tie shot up to the
sudden bush of his beard like the
stick to a flesh-and-cloth tootsie
roll pop. Just like the posters
really, I thought. More toothy,
perhaps.
To set the mood for his monologue, Ginsberg led off with a tenminute Buddhist chant, honing a
breathy squeezebox in tune with
his own, quite adequate voice.
The cameras whirred and clicked

all around him, tape recorders
rolled, and the students and
professor-types stooped, sat, and
stood about, slack-mouthed and
attentive. At one point a movie
cameraman, bent and humblebacked under the weight of his
machine, crept slowly forward
and knelt in remembering homage.

The endless message
Somewhere in the fast-slow,
streamy, dreamy, whispered, gestured scrabble of his poems, he
made statements. The reading began when he was still tense with
the weight of reputation and
when the audience was tense with
poster-fed anticipation. Tense and
slow at first. Two bad, burbling
mistakes no pause—then off!

The Poet
Fashions "Frozen somewhere
between the Grapes of Wrath
and the Tel Aviv Library" briefly
illuminate Rockwell Auditorium.
But then Ginsberg. Allowing
for the nearly anatomic error of
a 40-minute poem, which was occasionally and mercifully brilliant, the rest of the poetry was
diverse, colorful, and spaced with
masterful poetic change-up.

Just like his posters
Allen Ginsberg made his entrance quickly and neatly, when
the brief, lauding introduction
afforded him was barely an echo.
“He is a poet that never enlarges,
never distorts, never mistakes,”
As I was to discover in the course
of the reading, this is certainly
true of his poetry. His clothing,
however, was another matter. His
fashions were frozen somewhere
between the Grapes of Wrath and
the Tel Aviv Public Library. A

“Sunset SS Azamour” was a
good introduction to the program, despite the mistakes, In
it Ginsberg perhaps defined his
own verse when he said: “It is
the endless message from myself
to my own hand.” The next selection, focused on the Near East,
carried another though perhaps
basic to him as an artist: “Art
is just a shadow, like cows or

tea."

The long poem, twelfth in the
program, lasted 40 minutes and
so deserved to be a virtual camel’s hump of aphorisms: he pleaded that people should come back

fairy that lords it over all matter
that happens to be oil , . . it is
an egotistic cancer.”; “United
Fruits have Central America by
the balls.”; "Turn the teacher
on.”; “Who invented what’s
dirty? The Pope? Bernard Baruch?”; “Assholes are basic to
democracy.”

The program was filled out by
a few poems about New York
City, a Hell’s Angels’ party,

will give the place a buff in its wooden parts. Occasionally
someone will change a lightbulb or two. Last Tuesday was

The symbolism is thick; much
too thick for my liking. Ideas and
themes become entangled and
submerged in this sticky layer.
In “Box” we have one symbol,
the frame of a box, a hollow cube.
In “Mao” we have an allegory;
Mao Tse-tung obviously repre-

sents the East; the long-winded
lady, not so obviously, is the U.S.;
the old woman is Europe, and the
speechless minister is institutionalized Christianity.

Mao •'Box.” The delicate
interweaving of the two plays
(“'Box" ard “Quotations from
Chairman Mao Tse-tung") is permeated with familiar themes of
illusions and reality, the pathos
of human apathy, lack of understanding, and many others. It may
be viewed as a political play, but
is more of a philosophical exercise in the abstract.
Albee

“Box

Mao is played by Conrad Yama
whose striking physical likeness
to the Chinese leader helps him
succeed with his memorable portrayal. The fact that he confuses
several of his lines is almost petty
in this play.

The lady (U.S.) rambles on and
on about her husband, her daughter, her life: “There is no death;
only life and dying.” The old
woman (Europe) recites a poem
superficially inane, yet like everything else in the work, full of
significance which is kept well
hidden for the entire evening.
Maybe the box or the stage
symbolize the West. The lady
(U.S.) is in the box, rocking in
her rocking chair and as rocking
chairs go, she is moving but not
going anywhere (Albee’s comment
on the plight of the U.S.).

Chairman Mao, on the other
hand, reciting his Marxist platitudes is moving; he moves continuously about the stage, he wanders through the t h e a t er and

makes himself felt around the
world that the theater stands for.
This is the threat of Maoism if I
am reading Albee correctly.
Children is an oft repeated
theme.

for

talk about their offspring and
there are countless other references. Albee seems to crave repe-

tition.

“Box” is played through twice
and many lines are reiterated to
form a labyrinth of superimposed
patterns. “The beauty of art is
order”
an aphorism insisted
upon.
—

Too much
The dialogue is so laden with
relations and meaning that little
seeps through.

In “Box” we listen to the voice
of Ruth White and some of the
words don’t even come through.
Many phrases are muffed and

aggravatingly indistinguishable.

But the technical aspects are
not all bad. William Ritman’s simple set and David Zierk’s lighting
is most effective as the beams
glow ominously in the dark theater.
The work is sardonically antiMaoist; in fact, it is bitterly antistatus quo. Albee has discovered
the potential of a new art form
but is far from unleashing its
power.

“Box

•

Mao

•

Box” is not a good

play.

Albee has employed wholesale
symbolism, depth and meaning.
His over-use of them ruins his
work. He tries to say so much
that he ends up saying nothing
to most folks. He leaves everyone
with a particularly gnawing sense
of malaise and uneasiness that
something was missed.
The work is much more suited
to the printed page where it may
be pored over, than to the stage
where it is skimmed over.

Albean themes
In “The Delicate Balance” Albee demonstrated his prowess to
write a good play on his themes.
In “Box

Mao

•

Box” he demon-

strates how bad a pi ay based on
Albean themes can be. His newly
conceived art form is not effective.

About the middle of the play
the audience begins shifting in
their seats, shuffling their feet,
as many blank, sleepy faces indicate that the emotion most dreaded by the playwright has invaded
the theater: Boredom.
“We cannot listen anymore, because we cry” (to quote Albee).

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.—Mixing warm welcome with stern warning,
a memorandum from R.H. Bubier, the city manager here, has been directed
to all students planning to visit the city during the spring holidays.
Several "suggestions and policies" were included in the bulletin. Mr.
Bubier said all persons planning to vacation here should have housing
reservations; campers and trailers must be registered in licensed parks; and
all laws that govern individual conduct will be enforced, including excessive
noise, intoxication, the use of narcotics, violation of traffic codes, and
"disorderly conduct" in general will not be tolerated. Mr. Bubier said
parents and school officials will be notified of any violation by individual
students.

City Manager Bubier also warned that ignoring the law will result in
"permanent and sometimes criminal" records. He urged visiting students
to follow personal guidelines, as they would on campus, when vacationing

here.

In what had to be the most heartbreaking loss in the
club’s six year history. The League Champs—the State University of Buffalo Hockey leers saw their hopes for the
Finger Lakes Hockey Tournament trophy shattered Sunday
as Oswego State beat the Bulls 5-4 in overtime before a
crowd of 1100 screaming fans in the Amherst Recreational
Center.

Both the Bull leers and their
fans were ecstatic, and bedlam
reigned in Amherst Recreation

which signifies an official score,
never went on.

Goal disallowed
Instead Referee Johnny Barnes
disallowed the goal, saying that
a whistle to stop play had been
blown five seconds earlier. In
the interest of honest reporting,
the whistle to stop action had indeed been blown before the puck
went into the nets. But why play
was stopped, this reporter will
never know.

tie.

Belanger opened the scoring at
8:24 of the first period when he
drilled a blue darter into the
lower corner of the Buffalo goal.
The Bulls tied it up at one apiece
when captain Lome Rombough
clicked on a blazing slap shot at

9:51 of the second stanza. Belanger put Oswego on top again
2-1 when he tallied on a rare
penalty shot, called when a Buffalo player fell on the puck in
the Bulls’ goal crease. Rombough
then knotted the score at 2 all
with a clutch goal at the 15:11
mark.

This first meeting will be held
to organize the team and to ar-

range

practice hours for the
spring season. Since this is the
first year such a team has been

organized, the schedule of matches will be somewhat limited.
Those women who have had
some tennis experience and who
would like to join the team,
please try to attend this first
meeting. Those women who cannot attend the meeting but who
would still be interested in joining with the team, contact Miss
Hall in the Women’s Physical Education Department, 2941.
■

With only 54 setonds left in the
second period, Buffalo’s Johnny
Watson gave the Bulls their only
lead of the night 3-2, when he
stole the puck and cruised in all
alone to cleanly beat Oswego’s
goalee Dave Kubissa.
Belanger opened up the third

period with two quick goals giving Oswego a 4-3 advantage but
Daryl Pugh connected for Buffalo
with only five minutes left in the
game, to set the stage for overtime and Oswego’s winning goal.
Though it was a hitter pill to
swallow, the Culls showed their
class. Every placer on the Buffalo squad shook hands with the
victorious Lakers. For the Oswego players, it was their third
straight tournament championship. As was expected, Belanger
was named the tourney’s most
valuable player. The trophy for
the best defensive player was no
surprise either. It went to Buffalo’s all-league goalee Jim Ham-

ilton, who was tremendous in the
nets. Big Jim made 42 saves
against Oswego, many of them
bordering on the impossible.

Magnificent season!

D’Youville College avenged its

Buffalo cagers had a 4-3 record
going into their final game at
Brockport State Friday evening.

The scoring leaders for the
Buffalo contingent were; Kay
Richard with 13 points, Mary Ann
Horey with nine and co-captain
Elaine Gordon with six. Carol Lazzaro and Sharon Pleasant led the
team in rebounds.
The Blue and White trailed
9-6 going into the second quarter
but led by one point, 15-14, at
the halfway mark. D’Youville
continuously banked shots off
the board to hold a 33-25 edge before the final quarter. Buffalo

thq contest to close the gap, but
D’Youville finished the game
with their strong nine-point lead.

The Hockeymen never let up

to the last, the club provided its

Winning form
The Blue and White demonstrated its winning form again as
they trounced their opponents in
a 55-24 victory over visiting State
College at Fredonia.
Co-captain Gordon was Buffalo’s
offensive leader as she scored 27
points in the contest. Other commendable performances in the
scoring department were: Miss
Richards with ten points, Samuelson with nine and Coleman with
four. Miss Lazzaro shared the
command in the rebound department with Ryan.

The Blue and White held a slim

one-point margin after the first
quarter but led 23-14 at halftime.
Miss Gordon was responsible for
17 of the 23 points. She continued
to make her shots count as Buffalo increased its lead over Fredonia to 18-points (39-21) going
into the final period of play. The
home team sunk 16 more points
for its best effort of the campaign thus far while holding the
visitors to only three points.

FEDERAL SCHOOL REPORT says: The Philadelphia public schools are engaged in “the most dramatic
revolution in a city school system in the post-war period.”
Reform in Philadelphia is "more widespread and far-reaching
than in any large school system in the country.”

DR. MARK R. SHEDD, new Superintendent of Schools, says:
“I will continue to support teachers who are able to examine, in a
mature way, the gut issues of our day—war, sex, race, drugs, poverty.
If we divorce school subjects from the guts and hopes of human beings,
we can expect students to find them gutless and hopeless."

RICHARDSON DILWORTH, President of the Board of Education,
says: “The city is where the action is. It’s where the challenge is. It’s where
we are facing the great moral and social issues of our day. If you want action,
come teach in Philadelphia. If you don’t, go teach in the suburbs/’

WE SAY: Come join our school revolution as a teacher. Get in on the action.

The defection of Sejna to the United

CANON AFB, N. M.
An eight-member Court Martial Board found Air Force
Capt. Dale Noyd, a self-proclaimed conscientious objector to the Vietnam War,
guilty of disobeying a lawful order.
Noyd, 34, a former psychology professor, fighter pilot and career officer with
12 years service, was charged with refusing to fly a training mission with a Vietnam-bound student pilot last Dec. 5. He
said he would rather go to prison than
help with the Vietnam War effort.
The vote on the verdict was by a twothirds majority but the exact vote was not
released.
Noyd took the stand in his own defense
Friday, along with three character witnesses, including a California theologian
who flew from Bombay, India, to testify
Noyd was a man with a “uniquely deep
religious conviction."

Madeline Levine

Anti-draft professor fired

Never legally hired
Dr. Webb S. Fiser, the university’s vice
president for academic affairs, said Whitney was not fired because he was never
legally hired.
"We have to drop Professor Whitney
from the payroll because he did not sign
the mandatory oath of office," Fiser said.
Whitney, one of 10 person arrested
Feb. 21 at the campus during a demonstration against Dow Chemical recruiting,
said he never received a copy of the oath.
He said if he had received it he probably
would have signed it then because “the
Constitution of the United States is a

pretty good document.”
In taking the oath of office, mandated
by slate law and affirmed by the U. S.
Supreme Court, a person pledges to support the federal and state constitutions
and to perform his duties to the best of
his ability.
Whitney said he would not sign the
oath now because it was “being used by
outsiders to put pressure on what activities were to take place on campus, which
is something only the university should
control.”

Check records
A check of the university’s records was
instigated when attacks were made in the
stale legislature on a draft-counseling
committee formed by faculty members at
the university.
One assemblyman said he wanted to inspect the signed oaths of the
27 faculty
members on the committee and the university then began checking its records.
Although Whitney said he was never
a member of the committee, he said he
did attend some of its meetings and counseled students privately on the draft,
Whitney, a Brandeis graduate, was described by the university spokesman as
"a fine teacher" with “excellent academic
credentials" but said he did not know if
the university might rehire Whitney if he
agreed to sign the oath.

Noyd sets limit
“We all owe loyalty to the government,”
said Noyd “We owe it to them on their
decisions of policy. When a government
is involved in actions, not just political
differences, a citizen must participate.
But there are limits, no matter what a
government asks.” That limit, he said, was
the Vietnam War.
Marvin Karpatkin, a defense attorney
helping represent Noyd at the request of
the American Civil Liberties Union, said
in his summation he considered the case
“the most profound in the consideration
of religious liberty in the United States.”
“This is a straightforward and honorable case. He has said ‘recognize me for
what I am. Find a way for me to serve
the Air Force without fatally wounding
my conscience.’
Maj. Royal Smith, the military prosecutor, said the government did not deny
Noyd was a man of good character and
deep religious beliefs.
“But which is going to take prece”

dence,” he asked, “the religious beliefs of
a man of high character or a command

of a commissioned officer over a subordiin the balance.”
nte? There the case hangs

Deep religious convictions
Dr. Robert Kimble, of Berkeley, Calif.,
who agreed to fly from India for his one
morning of testimony, said he met Noyd
in Denver last year while Noyd was an
instructor at the Air Force Academy at
Colorado Springs.
“He had a uniquely deep religious conviction and the sign of that conviction is
the depth of his courage,” said Kimble.
Noyd's attorneys have said Noyd became a conscientious objector to the Viet-

namese War because of a “religious experience,” but testimony regarding that
experience has not been allowed by the
nine-member court martial board.
Before Noyd was transferred from the
Air Force Academy to Canon on training
duty, he fled a series of suits in the civil
courts seeking to get out of the Air Force
or be given duty which did not involve the
war.
The U. S. Supreme Court ruled Noyd
must exhaust military legal channels

first.

Noyd, who could get by with a small
fine and reprimand or be ordered to serve
up to five years at hard labor, will be sentenced later.
Under military procedure, the Court
Martial Board will continue its session after returning the verdict. During the postverdict session the board will hear testimony not allowed during the earlier session before setting its sentence.
Col. Harold Vague, legal spokesman for
the board, said earlier detailed testimony
about Noyd’s religious beliefs could not

be brought out during the pre-verdict
session. However, presumably it could be
dealt with during the pre-sentencing session.

revision ruled out

Despite pleas from
WASHINGTON
more than 70 congressmen, a key House
committee chairman has ruled out congressional revision of the draft system
this year.
L. Mendel Rivers, D-S.C., chairman of
the House Armed Services Committee,
said late lagt week that his panel would
not reopen the draft issue because President Johnson already has authority to
deal with what draft critics believe are inequities in the system.
"We don’t intend to hold any hearings
on the draft this session,” Rivers said.
"All they need to do is administer the
way the Congress intended.” Without
hearings, there can be no change in the
law.
Johnson's failure to follow through on
his intention, announced one year ago, to
reverse the order in which men are drafted, and start taking first the youngest instead of the oldest, has generated many
of the congressional calls for action.
Rivers himself has questioned the President’s plan to continue taking the oldest
men first. The result of this decision,

ALBANY, N. Y, - ■ An anti-draft counselor at the State University at Albany
has been discharged from his job as assistant professor of mathematics.
A university spokesman said late last
week that Dr. James N. Whitney had nol
signed a mandatory loyalty oath when he
was hired last summer. The spokesman
said when Whitney was asked recently to
sign (he oath he refused.
Whitney, 32, of Cambridge, Mass., said
he was affiliated with the Boston Draft
Reistance Group and had offered to counsel students on the draft.
Whitney said he had been commuting
to Albany to teach two days a week and
had a three year contract. He said he was
"fired.”

college graduates.

Kennedy longtime critic

The latest proposals for revision were
submitted by 25 lawmakers who introduced in the House a measure written by
Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., a longtime
critic of the draft. Its chief feature would
require the President to institute a random selection system with young men
called first.
'Congress left open to the President the
option to reverse the order of call. In his
message to Congress on March 6, 1967, the
President said he would exercise that option.
The lack of uniform standards in the
nation on who qualifies for occupational
deferment also led to the calls for reform. Forty-two Republicans have introduced a bill that would create uniform
standards of the nation's 4,084 local draft
boards.

Senate debates future;
drafts Vietnam resoultion
A lively debate centering
around the future of student
government contingent upon
results of the constitution referendum highlighted Wednesday’s Student Senate

It was felt by some senators
that the fate of the Senate should
not solely be contingent on the
result of the referendum, but
should rest on a decision by the
students.

meeting.

A motion proposed by Vice
President Richard Miller to table
all discussion on amending the
constitution until the results of

The method of electing the
senate for next year in case the
proposed polity sytcm is not approved was discussed.
Election of senators by division as done in the past is now
impossible, since University College has become a four year program without divisions. An unsuccessful motion was proposed
by Daryl Rosenfeld “to elect the
senate on the basis of open representation.”

A serious issue arose concerning the fate of student government if the referendum does not
get the required 960 votes to be
effective

—

10% of the student

population.

Die naturally

Senator Neil Slatkin said that
if students are so apathetic about
an issue of great relevance to the
entire student body that 10% of
the students to the polls, can not
be attracted, the Student Senate
should be allowed “to die a natural death.”
An argument ensued between
Mr. Slatkin and President Stewart Edelstein when Mr. Slatkin
contended that the Senate has
been ineffective this year and is
dying.
Mr. Slatkin walked out of the
meeting.
He said: “I don’t think the
Senate should be a gavel and
Robert’s Rules of Procedures.
There should be respect among
the members. Reactions between
people have been dismissed and
actions have been too formalized.”

VP's proposal

the referendum are known was
passed. If the new constitution is
not passed election dates will
have to be changed.
A statement giving the Senate’s
position on the Vietnam war and
the draft was read by Neil Slatkin. The statement, approved by
the body, contains a strong stand
against “direct and forced compliance with the draft and thereby the War.” It continues: “We
will resist such complicity and
we urge the other segments of
the university to do the same.”
A statement by the Graduate
Student Association which “unconditionally condemns the war
in Vietnam” was added to the

Senate resolution.

The GSA statement also condemns silence on the impending
issue on the part of faculty, administration and students. The
combined resolution forming “a
strong and decisive stand on the
part of the Student Senate” was
passed.

Other action
In other action by the Senate,
the University Community for
Rational Alternatives was allotted
$250 through the Convocations
Committee to cover expenses for
a planned guerrilla theater on
anti-war themes, and anti-war

speakers.
A final decision was made by
the Senate to change election
dates to April 15 and 16 in case
the polity system is not passed.

Nine panel members representing the AdminGraduate Student Association, and the
Student Association agreed Wednesday that the
moral issue of the war in Vietnam should take
precedence over concern about the drafting of
graduate students in the University community.
The panel met at an open forum in the Fillmore
istration,

American people.

Meyerson scored
Richard Miller of the Student Association termed
any draft system “biased, unfair and undemocratic”

because it is selective. The immorality of the war
pervades the draft issue, he added.
Calling for the cessation of all militaristic acts
on this campus, Carl Ratner, a graduate Psychology
student and a member of the Buffalo Draft Resistance urged that all Defense Department contracts
with the University be terminated and ROTC be

barred from campus.
President Mcyerson came under attack for his
“silence" on the war issue and his "sudden concern” over the change in the draft law that would
remove most graduate deferments by Joseph Burgess of the GSA Executive Council. He expressed
dismay at the recent measures taken by university

Assistant City Editor

Howard Samuels, United States Undersecretary of Commerce, appealed to the business community Tuesday for
assistance in solving the nation’s deep racial problems.

Mr. Samuels spoke before a crowd of about 200 people,
predominantly businessmen, during the first day of Buffalo
Mayor Frank A. Sedita’s three-day Conference on Youth
Opportunity. It was held at the Hotel Statler-Hilton.

presidents. Early last week the four University
center presidents sent a telegram “deploring the
decision” of the National Security Council.

Future effects

He appealed to the business community to “give the inner-city
youngsters an opportunity they haven’t had in the past, a chance to
have a meaningful working experience. We ask American business to
take a new task, a new responsibility, a new opportunity; to get into
the depths of the inner-city and help those who are unemployable,
who somehow need education and motivation.”
“American business knows how to get things done,” Mr. Samuels
said. “The time has come in this country when we need to get more
things done.”
Citing the recently released report of the National Advisory Com-

mission on Civil Disorders, Mr. Samuels stated that “America is on
trial for its very life,”

Time to act
He said that “the destruction and bitterness of racial disorder,
the harshness of the Black revolt and the White repression had been
seen and heard before in this country. It is now time to end this destruction and violence, not only in our streets, not only in our ghettoes, but in the minds of our people.”
Citing the difficulties facing President Johnson’s tax increase
needed to “support the social programs of our time,” and the “great
difficulty that the Senate had in coming to the grips of open housing,”
Mr. Samuels said that “the job cannot be done in Washington.”
Commenting that the most important action the State Legislature
has taken in two months is “expanding the lottery system,” the unsuccessful candidate for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination in
1966 added that “it isn’t going to be done in Albany” either,
“It isn’t going to be done any place but right here. New commitments must come from within the cities themselves.”
Prior to the undersecretary’s speech, Mayor Sedita and County
Executive Edward Rath spoke briefly.
Mayor Sedita said that “we talk about youth opportunity and in
pure and simple non-technical language, that means jobs.”

immediate cessation of armed conflict and
destruction in Vietnam.”
Dean Fred Snell of the Graduate School explained that the measure would “restore confidence” in the nation that has misordered its priorities by not dealing sufficiently with the “crisis
between the affluent and the economically,
. . .
educationally, socially and politically deprived”
(or an

Youth Opportunity
Howard Samuels, U.S. Undersecretary of Commerce, is shown speaking at Mayor Sedita's Conference on Youth Opportunity, held at the Hotel
Slaller Hilton.

The Director of Graduate Studies in the English Department, Irving Massey, was apprehensive
about the effects of the new draft law. The loss
of teaching fellows will leave "hundreds and hundreds of freshmen without instruction” next year,
he claimed. The response of the University to this
impending “confrontation with the government”
will have an important effect on the future of this
institution, he predicted.
Other panel members included Assistant to the
President Robert O’Neil, Student Association Senator Neil Slatkin, John Marciano of the GSA, and
Norman Effman, a Law School representative.
Additional resolutions dealing with the war and
the draft issues and their relation to the University will be debated at Friday’s Faculty-Senate
meeting. One proposal would have the body call
for the modification of the Selective Service Act
of 1967 to the extent that “draft eligibilty would
occur only at natural times of transistion in the
educational process, i.e., completion of high school,
completion of a baccalaureate degree program or
completion of a higher degree program.”
Another proposal, to be submitted by Professor
of Physics and Astronomy Lyle B. Borst and Assistant Professor of Pathology John C. Hubbard
would resume deferments for graduate and professional students immediately. It states in part:
“Upon entering a post baccalaureate professional
or academic degree program, a student would be
assigned to a special draft pool. Members of this
pool would be liable for induction into the Armed
Forces after completion of or withdrawal from,
their programs.

dateline news. Mar. 8 Dr. Moore emphasizes need for
so

BUFFALO The Buffalo City Common Council passed a resolution to draft a law making it illegal for any youth under the age of 17
to be on the streets or in a public building after 11 p.m. The proposals,
sponsored by University District Councilman Lyman, had bipartisan
support, and was passed by a vote of 9 to 6.
Already, police officials have come out against the curfew. Police
Commissioner Felictta is against the curfew because it represents a
negative approach to fighting juvenile delinquency, In a conversation
last week on the curfew, he said that it posed several problems of
enforcement.
Last week, City Corporation Counsel Anthony Manguso said that
legislation of this type would be illegal. He reiterated this belief on

He claims that educators need
to develop a “thorough science
of instruction" so they will know
what teaching techniques, aids
and in struction methods are the
most effective. Dr. Moore called
for research into learning disability and programs “designed
to test the efficiency of various
educational approaches.” He also
described the role of technology
and the importance of education

Dr.

Moore pointed out

some

specific developments within the
Faculty. Students have come to
play an ever-increasing role in
the Faculty. The Faculty has been

involved in urban education and
conducts a teachers education
program at the Woodlawn Junior
High

School.

It should also play an active
role in the University's Center
for Urban Education, he said.
In conclusion, Dr. Moore called
the Facull yof Educational Studies “one of the most exciting
and enviable positions in the
United States.”

Last day to

vote!

Today is the final day to vote on the newly-proposed Student Association constitution. The document calls for sweeping changes in student government structure.
Voting stations are located in the Center Lounge,
Norton Hall and in Goodyear Hall. Polls will be
open until 6 p.m. today.

Labeled by some a copy of the Faculty Senate
structure, the proposed ocnstitution would, if accepted, replace

the Senate with a Student Coor-

dinating Council. The Council would be elected by
"regularly enrolled daytime undergraduates" (the
Polity) and would "program" specific areas, recommending specific pioposals to the Polity.
The Polity would have final say on all but fin-

ancial matters and could also initiate legislation at
monthly meetings of the entire student body.
A majority of at least 960 votes are required to
pass the referendum. Regardless of whether the
constitution is approved, elections will be held to
fill existing student offices March 26 and 27.

It would be of greater significance, however, if the

Faculty Senate adopted a resolution which took a stand

against the war in Vietnam. The Graduate Student Association has urged such action, and it will do so again at today’s
meeting.

The GSA points out that educational leaders show signs
of distress “only when the newly released Selective Service
regulations threaten to take from this institution those
graduate students needed to run the machine.”
How long can the faculty and administration refuse to
take a stand? If they are opposed to the disgusting situation
that has developed in Vietnam they should say so, and do it
publicly. It will long be remembered how American universities remained silent while the Johnson Administration
pursued a destructive foreign policy.
We must agree with the GSA when it “urges members
of the faculty and the administration to join those , of their
student, faculty and administrative colleagues who have been
working for the past four years to end the misery that is

Joyce could so sing!
To the Editor;

Somebody’s got to be kidding about this hooking Leonard Cohen onto James Joyce’s coattails,
but reviewer Rick Schwab goes far too far when he
says “Joyce couldn’t even sing.” This honorary

citizen of Buffalo deserves be'ter of you.
Joyce possessed an exquisite tenor which he
employed in a large repertory of arias and songs.
At the age of 22, he shared a concert with John
McCormack. In 1939, at the age of 57, joining 200
or 300 French and British soldiers in a crowded
restaurant in singing the “Marseillaise,” his voice
so attracted attention that he was hoisted onto
a table so he might sing it all over again.
A witness recalled later: “You never saw such
an exhibition of one man dominating and thrilling
a whole audience. He stood there and sang the
‘Marsellaise’ and they sang it again afterwards
with him. . . . Oh, Joyce and his voice dominated
them all.” Leonard Cohen should sing so good.

less well. Never before, however, have I encounThe Gadfly of 27 February.
Mr. Schneider contends (how mournfully, one
wonders?) that U. S. policy is pushing the few apathetic Vietnamese who are left into the camp of
the NLF, and in support of this he lists several incidents, including the government arrest of Thich
Tri Quang, “the popular Bhuddist leader,” and the
requirement of identification on South Vietnamese
streets after 5 p.m. I would submit that not only are
actions of this sort necessary, but also that they
do not necessarily have the effect with which Mr.
Schneider wishes to charge them. Tri Quang is an

measuring. My friends, it is very nearly % of a

the corner of Main and Bailey. I don’t really
know how you feel about it, but I would be awfully
goddamned nervous if somebody was dropping 500

distance away from me.
While on this subject, another picky little
question occurs to me. Just where the hell is

a trifle mealy mouthed to say, for example, that
the center of New York City was the Empire State

I would like to address a few remarks to the
“Viet Vet” who registered his approval of the decision of the Selective Service to eliminate grad-

uate deferments.
Dear Viet Vet
We are of the same generation, possibly we
are the same age. A few years ago 1 went to school
and you went to war. Now you are back and condemning me as a member of the student body for
my “indifference.” You say that you approve of
the law which will prevent me from going to graduate school. This smells of hypocrisy. If this war
is as terrible as you now' believe, what is more
my supposed indifference or your

actual participation in it?
I am not attacking your participation in the
war
I am instead attacking your idea that the
majority of students arc cowardly and apathetic.
You are wrong. I have been here for over three
years. I have seen the war protest germinate and
flourish as a result of student involvement. No
other segment of our society has been more dedicated to this cause than have the students. Perhaps
the people who can be termed “activists” are in
the minority. They are, nonetheless, a relatively
large minority and the rest of the student body

Rejects 'Viet Vets' ideas: Students are not apathetic

Thruway

You will find apathy on the campus, but far less
than in other areas.
Neither are students cowardly. They have not
“hidden behind their draft cards.” I myself had a
2-S deferment for three years and now, as an Advanced Cadet in the ROTC program I have a 1-D
deferment. I, like most students, received it as a
result of a desire to become educated rather than
to avoid “the terrible reality of this war.”

But what is wrong with desiring to avoid this
“terrible reality?” Believe it or not, it is not the
only reality in the world. I don’t have to participate
in it to realize that it exists. I prefer to remain in
the reality I live in now. I will receive an Air
Force commission upon graduating and I hope that
there will be no wars for me to fight. I believe I
feel the same way about war, especially wars like
Vietnam, that most students do.
And this is the tragedy of the new draft decision that you apparently miss. It will force the
most dedicated and sincere segment of our society
to either go on to exile or jail or to take part in a
war in which they simply do not believe. Apathy
won’t be the only casualty of this decision.

We live in a world of paradox where men arc
both wise and foolish, powerful and weak. Man is
wise enough to photograph distant planets, yet he
does not understand his own environment adequately enough to make it fruitful for all mankind.

Incongruity is present and discord will follow in
any situation in which some people should know
only deprivation while others know abundance. It
is that kind of imbalance in the distribution of
“well-being” that makes Vietnam possible.

its contents are better described by its subtitle, “A Guide to Your

the individual so classified is “not

"Selective C.O.s."
This chapter, too, has its shortcomings, however. Lynn doesn’t
take up the question of what happens to men who conscientiously
object to Vietnam rather than
wars in general
the “selective
C.O.’s,” There are no provisions
for this sort of objection under
the current draft law.
—

He also fails to emphasize that

C.O. is supposed to have
reached his convictions as a result of “religious training and belief,” In practice, this means that
a C.O. applicant has a far better
chance of getting non-combatant
or alternative service if he can
prove to his board, by means of
statements from his minister, lists
of pacifist organizations he belongs to, or whatever, that he is
a sincere and religiously-motivated pacifist.
a

The last major chapter of the
book tells how a potential draftee
should proceed if his case goes to
court. Much of the advice here

comes from Lynn’s long experience with draft cases in court,
and seems excellent.

Publicity helps
He suggests, for example, that
a defendant in a draft case always asks for a jury trial, because
one or more jurors are likely to
be impressed by a defendant’s sin.
eerity even if none of them cares
for his politics. He recommends
bringing large numbers of supporters to court, and getting as
much publicity for individual
court cases as possible. He also
describes the differences in the
way the various federal appeals
courts react to draft cases.
All in all, then, Lynn’s book has
some very helpful information.
It should be useful to some who
are faced with the draft, particularly those who plan either to go
to Canada or to apply for C.O.
status. It is not, however, a book
that offers a sure-fire method for
avoiding the draft, its title notwithstanding.

NSA asks students to utilize all
appea anne IS I reel lassi le
WASHINGTON (CPS)—The National Student Association has urged all students to use
all appeal procedures available within the
Selective Service System if they are reclassified I-A.
Most first-year graduate students and graduating
seniors will be reclassified I-A this summer under
a recent order eliminating student deferments for
all graduate students, except those already beyond
their first year of study and those in medical
fields.
NSA President Ed Schwartz said a student
should appeal “whether he plans ultimately to serve
or to resist.”
A reclassified draft registrant is
allowed a personal appearance before his local
board and an appeal to a state board. If there are
one or more dissenting votes on the state board
he may appeal to the Presidential level.

"Educational campaign"
Schwartz said the idea was primarily intended
as an “educational campaign.” Thus, he especially
urged students to make personal appearances before their local boards “to convey to those who sit
on them pur growing frustration with the current
dangerous directions which foreign and domestic
policies have taken.” If students follow Schwartz’s
advice, they may also throw a monkey wrench into
the Selective Service System. Although state appeal boards can deal with a group of appellants
at once, local boards would face long hours of
hearing personal appeals from dozens of students.
Schwartz said NSA would soon be making available to all college campuses a one-page description

of appeal procedures, NSA is also working with

Schwartz said NSA was counseling the use of
appeal procedures because he doubts draft reforms,
such as those advocated by Sen. Edward Kennedy
and several education associations, are forthcoming.

Suit pending
NSA has filed a suit against Selective Service
Director Lewis Hershey asking for an injunction
stopping local boards from enforcing his order
last fall to reclassify and draft anti-draft demonstrators. Oral arguments on the case will be heard
March 7.
At the same press conference at which he an
nounced NSA’s draft plans Schwartz also:
Said that: “The current climate of the
American university can only be compared to that
of a ghetto before a summer riot.” He added that
“a wave of anti-intelleotualism is building in this
country, nurtured by frightening elements of the
population, and translated into retaliation against
colleges and universities at every level.”
•

Schwartz said the draft policy, “public hysteria
on student use of marijuana and LSD,” speaker
bans, the shooting of three black students in South

Carolina, and threatened cuts in state finances for

higher education are manifestations of this feeling, He said he fears that this pattern “threatens
to grow to a point where anti-youth crusades may
appear too attractive for politicians to ignore” during the Presidential campaign.

Urged an education campaign by students
and faculty on drugs, particularly on the fact that
“marijuana is no more dangerous to the system
than alcohol or tobacco.”
•

Urged that the travel tax proposed by President Johnson not be applied to students traveling
to Europe, He said that students spend a greater
daily average than the maximum $7 a day on which
there is no tax. He also said Educational Travel,
Inc., the NSA subsidiary that arranges student
tours of Europe, had a 65% drop in applications.

Last spring, when the President
set up his draft commission under
former Assistant Attorney General Burke Marshall, there was a
lot of hoopla in the media about
major reforms in the draft system. There was even speculation
that the time had come to do
something about local draft

boards, many of which had been
functioning with a kind of medieval disregard for individual
rights.

The Commission’s report was a
strong one. It even included a recommendation that the power to
draft be taken away from the
local boards. President Johnson

NEW YORK (CPS)—The American Civil Liberties Union has gone to court on behalf of 18 young
men who were reclassified by their local draft
boards after turning in their draft cards as an
expression of opposition to U. S. policy in Vietnam.
The reclassifications came in the wake of last
November's letter to local draft boards from Selective Service Director Lewis Hershey in which
he recommended that persons who turn in draft
cards and block recruiters be reclassified and drafted as soon as possible.
Plaintiffs in the suits, filed in New York and
New Jersey, included Staughton Lynd, the Yale
professor who has been to North Vietnam. Lynd,
a 38-year-old veteran with three children, was declared delinquent by his local draft board.
Draft boards have restored deferments to three
students who participated in anti-war demonstrations. Two of the three had passed out anti-war
leaflets at an army induction center in Seattle,
Wash. The third, John D. Love, a student at
Obertin College in Ohio, was reclassified after
participating in a demonstration against Navy recruiters. He was given back his deferment after
Oberlin's faculty council approved a temporary
ban on military recruiters.

however, greatly changed the Senate-passed bill, adopting many
punitive and restrictive provisions
not in the Senate bill. The House
adopted its Committee's bill with
little change. Virtually all of
these provisions were adopted in
the Senate-House Conference, and
this conference bill was accepted
by the Senate on June 14 by a
vote of 72-23. It was signed by the
President in this form on June
30 1967.”

Lottery prohibited
Among the restrictive provis-

ions introduced by the House
Committee, perhaps the most significant was the one prohibiting
random selection, although giving
the President power to designate
a “prime age-group” for the
draft.

President

Johnson said

-

last

spring he would draft 19-year-olds
first, but he hasn't designated
them as the prime age-group and
evidently isn’t going to. Presumably his excuse is that Congress
wouldn't come through on a ran-

dom selection method of induction, so that he doesn’t feel obliged

to stick with his intention of taking the youngest first.

John Barth, one of the most

Mr. Barth will read his new
work “Menelaid” called by the
author “a very long short story

things will characterize the reading. It will be presented in a
musical-recital fashion, without

something of a dramatic effect
with the use of limited visual

Movie: Circle Ar

The Stranger'
Spectrum

Theater Reviewer

It is understandable to be wary of a film version of
“The Stranger,” but Luchino Visconti’s adaption of Albert
Camus’ novel, now playing at the Circle Art Theatre, demonstrates that the screen as well as the page can substantially
relate the existential and literary essences of the author.
With the character of Mersault, Camus has created an
example of the absurd man; the man in revolt. He has
observed the horrors, failures and futilities of existence but
does not despair. Even in the midst of the absurdities of life
a man must realize the intrinsic value of life.

Appearing at the Allenhurst
Lounge Coffee House in the
basement of Goodyear Dorm,
this trio offers a wide variety of
singing, strumming, and choreography. Dick Seale, Erica

After Mersault recognizes the
frustrations and meaninglessness
of his existence, he revolts against
them; and accepts life for what it

The movie succeeds surprisingly well at developing the character of the stranger. Marcello Mastroianni’s characterization of the

protagonist paints a portrait very
similar to the one perceived in
the mind’s eye when reading the
novel. A slight difficulty, however, is overcoming Mastroianni’s
image of the passionate Italian
lover in favor of the totally alienated, distant being of Mer-

sault.

Record review

Mersault can sit back and objectively observe his life as it is
spent. The present, the things of
the senses—these are the meaningful aspects of existence. He
asks nothing of life but to live.

Spirit
by James Albarella
Spectrum Music Reviewer

Lou Adler, responsible for
producing the Mamas and
Papas, brings about the marriage of rock and jazz in his
production of the first album
of a West Coast group, Spirit.
Pianist John Locke and drummer “Cass” Cassidy (another
Cass?) supply the jazz feel to this

sound. Mark Andes (bass) and
lead guitar Randy California are
very rock-oriented. Forget about
the lead singer Jay Ferguson
though.

The album starts off with a latin beat sound entitled “Fresh
Garbage.” This song sets the pace
of the rest of the album; Very
strong guitar work, solid bass and
piano backgrounds, but an extremely weak vocal. Perhaps too
much echo was added to the vocal track at the studio. The group
has something to say too, but the
singer does not have the “power"
to bring it through.
“Uncle Jack” is a nice strong
cut, with good harmony. It has
the group “style,” but the vocal
and guitar solo remind one of the
early Yardbirds.

weakly but picks up a blues feel.
The cellos are similar to those
used on George Harrison’s “Within You, Without You.”
“Water Woman” and “The
Great Canyon Fire in General”
are conventional and dull.

T rend-setters
The best tracks on the album
are “Straight Arrow,” a folk jazz
track; “Gramaphone Man” (an interesting arrangement), and “Elijah,” a very free number. Although one should not try to describe “sound” with labels, one
will find jazz and rock merged
tastefully. These tracks will be
trend setters.
In short, Spirit is one noteworthy LP. Although the sound is
very tight, one feels that the
group has not yet reached its full
potential. The band must improve
its vocals before it can hope to
experiment successfully with its
new sound. But this initial offering has enough to offer for both
the rock musicians and jazz heads.

“Mechanical World” reminds

A “Hendrix” guitar solo, Adler string arrangement and another sub-par vocal performance.
“Taurus" is simply beautiful.
Harpsichord, acoustical guitar and
strings blend well and “float.”
“A Girl In Your Eye” is another sitar song and very ordinary. “Topanga Windows” starts

Camera sets mood
Then one day the stranger kills
a man. He blames it on the sun.

Due to some adept camera work
the audience has actually experienced along with Mersault, the
blinding delerium of its rays
which precede the homicide.
There is little music in “The
Stranger.” Director Visconti relies on the camera to set the

V

While the movie does not capture much of the stranger’s psychological reactions as narrated
in the novel, it does a superb job
of dramatizing Mersault’s trial to
savor every ounce of disgust and
repulsion for the inordinate hypocrisy permeating the French
colonial courtroom.

Hockey Club to face RIT in championship tourney
The greatest tournament in the
Hockey League will take place
in the Amherst Recreation Center
Saturday and Sunday night as
the State University of Buffalo
hosts the FLHL invitational tournament.
League Champs Buffalo will

face the Technicians from Rochester Tech in the first contest.
The Bulls have beaten the RIT
squad twice this season by
scores of 5-2 at Amherst and 9-5
in Rochester.
Both games were thrillers right
down to the last buzzer, so don’t
think this game is going to be a
push over by any stretch of the
imagination. To beat the team

from Rochester the Bulls will
have to fui'eclieck ami stay witlr
the opposition for 60 minutes. It
is a do or die situation for both
teams since the losers will be
eliminated from the championship. The game will start at
7:30 p.m.

The second game will see last

in the nets is one of the most important reasons why the club

Jon Culbert is chosen
player of the week
Senior forward Jon Culbert has
been selected as the last Spectrum Basketball Player of the
Week.

The selection took longer than
usual this week as the Bulls
dropped two out of three games
last week.
There are two main reasons
why he was selected: His fine
play in the game against Ithaca
College at Ithaca a week ago
Tuesday and the superb effort
which he came through with in
the game against Philadelphia
Textile.
Culbert started the second half
at Ithaca in place of Bobby Nowak. Nowak was asked by head
coach Len Serfustini just before
the start of the second half
whether he was ready to start.
Nowak replied that he was having
an “off” night and didn’t think
that he coul4 help the team any
by playing in the next half.
Culbert was chosen by “Serf”
to replace forward Nowak in the
second stanza and he finished the
half with an excellent defensive
and offensive show, Jon picked
up nine crucial points in that
period of play and more important he pulled down nine rebounds off the backboards to aid
the Bulls in making up their
three point deficit at the halfway mark.
In the vital overtime period

the Bulls scored 12
points and the losers’ eight, Jon
sank two pressure-packed free
throws in the one-and-one situation after Ed Eberle had set the
Bulls ahead with a long jump
shot. Had Culbert not made the
first free throw the Bulls could
have lost possession and eventual-

in which

ly might have lost the game.

With forward Doug Bernard
out with a separated shoulder
which he suffered in the game
aginst Ithaca in the overtime
period, Culbert was selected to
start the game against Philadelphia Textile in Bernard’s usual spot. This was Culbert’s last
game in Clark Gym and he
finished in fine style as he led
the Bulls in the scoring department with 11 points.
Jon will receive his degree
this June in Physical Education
and is not only a stellar performer on the court but also
is an excellent student with a
tremendous personality. He is
carrying an overall 2.0 quality
point ratio, Jon is now doing his
student teaching at Woodlawn
Junior High School in the Buffalo
school system.
Culbert hopes to do graduate
work at his alma mater and has
applied for a teaching fellowship
in the Department of Physical
Education which has its headquarters in Clark Gym.

Serfustini has ever coached at
the State University of Buffalo,

Varsity basketball manager Fran Welk has just completed the season’s official statistics. The following is a rundown of the team leaders in each of the categories:
Junior forwards Ed Eberle and
Bob Nowak and center John Jekielek participated in ail 21 games
for the Bulls.
Eberle took the title in six
other departments: most field
goals attempted (274), most field
goals scored (112), most free
throws made (63), best shooting
percentage from the free throw
line (85.1), most points scored
(287) and the team’s highest average (13.67 points per game).
Senior forward Doug Bernard

turned out to be the team’s best
shooter making exactly 50% of
his shots from the field. He attempted 142 shots at the basket
and made 71 of them.
Jekielek finished as the team
leader in most free throws attempted (75), most rebounds (139;
and the highest rebound per
game average (5.6).
Bernard finished his career
with 520 points in three years of

varsity play, making him 22nd
among the all-time scoring lead-

ers in the Bulls’ basketball history. He finished with a very respectable 44.7% career average
from the field, making 199 field
goals out of 443 attempted.
Bernard put in 121 free throws
through the hoop. He attempted

186 shots from the 15-foot line
giving him a
65.1%,

very respectable

Senior forward Jon Culbert finished his career with 341 points,
scored on 42% of his shots from
the field (124 of 295) and had a
69.9% shooting average from the
free throw line (93 of 133).

Eberle’s 25 points against MacMurray College Jan. 2 was the
best offensive performance of the
season while Jekielek’s 23 rebounds in the same encounter
was the Bulls’ highest output in
that department.

Bernard led Culbert in the re
bound department, 269 to 256.

Bouncing back from a severe
21-6 thrashing at the hands of
Notre Dame, the Fencing Bulls
edged Syracuse 14-13 in a triangular meet Saturday at Clark
Gym.

Foilman George Wirth led the
Swashbucklers to their second

a 5-4 advantage.

that has been somewhat disappointing, the fencing Bulls are
looking forward to stiff postseason competition in the North
Atlantic Intercollegiate Fencing
Championships at Rochester on
March 16 and in the NCAA
Championships to be held in Detroit March 28-30.
Coach Sid Schwartz expressed
the sentiments of his squad as
he said: “We’ve had some tough
breaks this season, and the tournaments will give us a chance to
make up for some losses that
were really hard to take. I think
we’ve got a chance to take the
North Atlantics this year. As for
the NCAA Championships, the
competition is awfully rugged

make any predictions just yet.”

President Richard M. Nixon has called

Nixon said the nation’s young people

“Once we end this war, we can remove the draft from hanging over our
young people,” Nixon said.
“I believe we should have a volunteer armed services,” he said, Nixon said

WASHINGTON
A bipartisan coalition fought to keep intact an unprecedented ban on housing discrimination but

compromise civil ri
amendments
After days of voting it has become clear
that Senate sentiment favored the open
housing provision, which would outlaw
discrimination in 44.6 million units, or
68% of the nation’s housing.
But it is also apparent that Senators,
spearheaded by anxious southerners, were
willing to add to the compromise stiff
provisions to deal with civil disorders.
As the third day of voting on amendments began, the compromise included a
three-part package: the open housing provision, a mild anti-riot section, and legislation to protect Negroes and civil rights
workers from racial violence.
The civil rights coalition was confident of turning back another effort to cut
coverage of the fair housing provision.

real estate agent to discriminate.
Under the compromise bill, open
housing coverage would extend to all
single family, owner-occupied homes sold
through a broker. Such homes sold privately would not be covered.
Sen. Jack R. Miller (R., Iowa) planned
to offer an amendment similar to Baker’s,
but it had the inducement to liberals of
a flat ban on discrimination against veterans and servicemen which would extend to all housing.
The Senate indicated its willingness to
adopt anti-riot legislation in a series of
votes Tuesday. Even the coalition fell
apart when the Senate approved 82 to 13

“When President Eisenhower left office, the power balance was seven to one,”

Noyd, 34, a fighter pilot, 12-yeaf career Air Force officer and former Air
Force Academy professor, is accused of
willfully disobeying an order to fly a
training mission with a Vietnam-bound
student pitot Dec. 5.
Noyd was transferred from the academy to training duty after protracted attempts in the civil courts to get out of
the Air Force or be classified as a conscientious objector.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled he must
exhaust the remedies of military courts
before taking the matter to civil courts.
Marvin Karpatin, a civilian lawyer
named by the American Civil Liberties
Llnion to help defend Noyd, asked the
board to dismiss the charges.

Illegal order
He said

Noyd was

the regulation under which
refused conscientious objector

status was unconstitutional
“The processing of applications was
absolutely devoid of the barest requirements of the due process of law,” Karpatkin said. “There is no interview, no
hearing, no available counsel, no witnesses and no procedure whereby the accused can be appraised of his case. It is
no less than an abomination.”
He also said the order to fly the mission was illegal because Noyd had already said he was opposed to the war.
Col, Harold R. Vague, law officer for
the board, said a ruling on the constitutionality of the regulation was premature.
“I find it unnecessary for me at this
time to decide the constitutionality of the
regulation covering conscientious objector
applications and 1 do not find that the
order was illegal on a matter of law. The
motion is therefore denied,” Vague said.
The board first denied, then granted,
request to permit three theologians to
testify in Noyd’s behalf.
Defense attorneys said the theologians’
testimony was needed to show Noyd’s
frame of mind at the lime he was given
the order.

WASHINGTON
President Johnson
asked Congress for what amounted to a
$500 million civil rights-welfare program
for American Indians. The White House
said their plight “dwarfs the situation
of any other Americans in the worst

ghettos . .
In a special message Johnson asked
for funds to give Indians improved economic, social and educational opportunities, a greater voice in their own affairs,
and tribal rights to determine whether
state criminal and civil laws shall apply
on their reservations.
But without waiting for Congress to
act, Johnson issued an executive order
creating a National Council on Indian Opportunity, headed by Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey and including six cabinet members, to seek improved living
conditions among the nation’s 600,000 Indians.

The message—the first one a President
ever sent Congress on Indian problems—was the result of a special task force study

for

Indians

begun two years ago. Johnson said it had
disclosed a “shocking situation” existed
among the Indian population, which includes 400,000 on or near reservations in
25 states.
The President, who said his proposal
would cost about $500 million, asked that
Congress take action to provide “a standard of living for the Indians equal to that
of the country as whole.”
He also asked that they be given “an
opportunity to remain in their homelands,
if they choose, without surrendering their
dignity; an opportunity to move to the
towns and cities of America, if they
choose, without surrendering their dignity, an opportunity to move to the
and cities of America, if they
choose, equipped with the skills to live

towns

in equality and dignity.”
Johnson said Indians should have “full
participation in the life of modern Am
erica, with a full share of economic op
portunity and social justice.”

Goldwater boosts Nixon, unity
WASHINGTON Barry M. Goldwater is
tempering his anti-Rockefeller talk under
a smothering barrage of Republican unity
appeals led by his chosen front-running
presidential candidate, Richard M. Nixon.
Goldwater eased off on his stance against
Rockefeller Tuesday, asserting that although he favors Nixon, he does not “rule

But the softened position falied to erase
the impact of his earlier declaration, and
to most Republicans it seemed there is
party division ahead if New York Gov,
Nelson A. Rockefeller becomes an open
candidate for the nomination.
The disunity threat was aired and repaired publicly at a $500-a-plate fundraising dinner Tuesday at which more
than $800,000 was taken in tor House

and Senate candidates.

Goldwater who had said in Phoenix
that he could not support Rockefeller as
a presidential candidate, told the more
than 2000 assembled Republicans:
“Let’s not spend our time downgrading
Republicans. I know that sounds funny
for a fellow who made the statement I
